was hungry, but there was not any meat in the house.considering that there was no better way. mrs. smith took a piece of paper, and wrote the following words on it：“give my dog half a pound of meat.” then she gave the paper to her dog and said gently：“take this to the butcher and hes going to give you your lunch today.”holding the piece of paper in its mouth, the dog ran to the butchers. it gave the paper to the butcher. the butcher read it carefully, recognized that it was really the ladys handwriting and soon did it as he was asked to. the dog was very happy, and ate the meat up at once.at noon, the dog came to the shop again. it gave the butcher a piece of paper again. after reading it, he gave it half a pound of meat once more.the next day, the dog came again exactly at noon. and as usual, it brought a piece of paper in the mouth. this time, the butcher did not take a look at 他the paper, and gave the dog its meat, for he had regarded the dog as one of his customers.but, the dog came again at four oclock. and the same thing happened once again. to the butchers more surprise, it came for the third time at six oclock, and brought with it a third piece of paper. the butcher felt a bit puzzled. he said to himself, “this is a small dog. why does mrs. smith give it so much meat to eat today?”looking at the piece of paper, he found that there were not any words on it！36it seemed

country exchange their fun and fashionable clothes for boring school uniforms.“the uniform makes us look like a bunch of clones, especially when we are doing morning exercises in the playground,” said qing, a senior 2 from a high school in shanghai. “but we are not exactly the same from the top to the bottom. the boys wear different sport shoes and girls have different decorations in their hair. these are the areas where you can express yourself,” said qing.although it might be strange for boys to talk about fashion, they do care about what they wear in school, especially shoes, according to qing.“nike and adidas basketball shoes, although they are still the must for many of my friends, are becoming out-of-date.” qing added. he explained, “ since liu xiang ran so fast in athens, running shoes are becoming popular.”“still in fashion are the various baseball caps and american-style t-shirts with random english words printed on them,” said qing. “the accuracy of the written message isnt important. often, the words are misspelt. sometimes they do not even make sense,” qing said with a smile.besides sports shoes and t-shirts, styles and colors of school bags are another opportunity for students to express their taste in fashion. some bags are made more eye-catching by decorating them with small hanging dolls. other fashionable items are the colorful drink containers which are now popular among girls this term.as in china, the new term in the us also brings new fashion trends: shirts printed with chinese words, necklaces with hebrew or hindi characters, and brazilian jewelry, are all common in schools in florida, according to carmen domingues, a high school student.40what does “a bunch of clones”(paragraph 2) mean? aall of the clothes are the same ball of the exercises are the same call of the clothes are different dall of the exercises are different41why are nike and adidas basketball shoes becoming out-of-date? abecause the shoes are not eye-catching. bbecause running shoes become more popular. cbecause the shoes have been popular for a long time. dbecause students have changed their opinions about liu xiang.42which of the following is not the new fashion trends in the us? anecklaces with hebrew or hindi characters. bbaseball caps and american-style t-shirts. cshirts printed with chinese words. dbrazilian jewelry.changzhou, china millions of chinese basketball fans who were upset about the retirement of yao ming, are excited to see another even more shining star, jeremy lin, rising from the n.b.a and becoming a household name all across china.“we are amazed by lin shuhaos magic performance and should cheer him on,” one internet user wrote.“his sport shirts have sold out, even including the counterfeit(仿制品) ones,” said zheng xiaojun, a 24-year-old clerk. lins amazing success over the last month has caught the imagination of the chinese. he has been especially popular here in northern zhejiang province, from which his grandmother went to taiwan in the late 1940s. cai qi, a well-known micro blogger, posted a message on micro blog over the weekend stating that lins hometown is jiaxing, a city near hangzhou where lins grandmother grew up. cai qis nephew yu guohua, a 56-year-old factory worker, is lins closest relative still living in northern zhejiang. he said in a telephone interview that lin had come to play basketball with the jiaxing high school team last may and had been surrounded by admirers. yu said he did not have a chance to meet lin in the crowd, but managed to speak with his family. “his father was very supportive of lins playing basketball, but his grandmother was not, for fear he would be injured,” yu said. lin may owe his height, 6 feet 3 inches, to his grandmothers family, yu said. chen weiji, the father of lins grandmother, was well over 6 feet and all of chens children were tall as well, he said. the n.b.a. believes that 300 million people in china play basketball. the retirement last year of yao ming took its main asian draw away from the n.b.a. but lins appearance has helped the league remain a hot topic of chinese online chatter. 43why does lin shuhao appeal especially to people in northern zhejiang ?ahe was born in zhejiang.bhis sports shirts are made in zhejiang.che once visited zhejiang.dhis grandmother grew up in zhejiang.44we can learn from the text that _.alin once played on jiaxing high school teamball lins relatives moved to taiwan 60 years agoclins grandmother didnt expect him to be a playerdlins father loved playing basketball45lins success in n.b.a has _.a. attracted more chinese children to play basketball as a careerb. drawn chinese peoples attention back to the leaguec. helped his hometown develop sports shirts businessd. helped his hometown attract more foreign visitors46which is the best title of the report?a. the secret of lins successb. lin, a new focus in chinac. lin and his familyd. chinese players in n.b.adat first a balloon is flat. you could have it in your pocket or in the middle of a book and nobody would have any idea of what you are keeping. sometimes you could hold it in your hands without anybody noticing what you have.but the moment you blow air into it, it becomes impossible for you to put it in the middle of your book like you did earlier! everybody around you begins to notice the balloon. they begin to pay attention to its color and its size.this is how the life of a man is supposed to be. when you have an idea, it may first be in your book or on a sheet of paper in your hands and isnt seen by anybody. but when you start to blow creativity into your idea, people begin to see it. it also becomes impossible for you to hide the idea. the idea attracts attention itself. just like all the balloon needs to start receiving attention is consistent (持续的) air, all your idea needs is consistent creativity blown into it. the balloon traps air inside to be able to exhibit its real size and at the same time it takes advantage of the air to move up. the breeze(微风) does not often favor the balloon but the balloon still takes advantage of the breeze to dance in the air.you may also be interested in the fact that the balloon lasts longer because of its flexibility. when it hits something, its direction changes. when you hit a hard rock, while sailing through life, dont say its the end of the road. theres a long way to travel beyond the rock.when the balloon is pressed, it bends and flips (翻转) because of pressure. learn to endure (忍受). use pressure to bend and flip to the next level.47how can you make your life successful according to the passage?ablow air into the balloon constantly.bkeep your creative ideas from being known by the public.cthink of consistent creative ideas.dattract people to your hot-air balloon rides.48which of the following statements is true according to the passage?atrying a high-pressure job will do you lots of good.bwe should deal with new situations like balloons.cbusinessmen are putting advertisements on balloons to sell their products.ddancing can help people develop new ideas.49the last two paragraphs are mainly written to _.a. describe how a balloon moves upb. give readers ideas for dealing with difficulties in a better wayc. explain how to avoid hitting hard rocks while sailing across the sead. tell readers how to make the most of their time50what might be the best title for the passage?a. learn from the balloon for a successful lifeb. balloons in the skyc. travel in a hot-air balloond. make your life colorful with
