I was looking forward to having five days off from duty. Unfortunately, the only one train a day back to my home in Sydney had already left. So I thought Id hitch a ride (搭便车). I waited by the side of the highway for three hours but no one stopped for me. Finally, a man walked over and introduced himself as Gordon. He said that although he couldnt give me a lift, I should come back to his house for lunch. He noticed me standing for hours in the November heat and thought I must be hungry. I was doubtful as a young girl but he assured（使放心）me I was safe, and he also offered to help me find a lift home afterwards. When we arrived at his house, he made us sandwiches. After lunch, he helped me find a lift home. Twenty-five years later, in 2003, while I was driving to a nearby town one day, I saw an elderly man standing in the glaring heat, trying to hitch a ride. I thought it was another chance to repay someone for the favour Id been given decades earlier. I pulled over and picked him up. I made him comfortable on the back seat and offered him some water. After a few moments of small talk, the man said to me, “You havent changed a bit, even your red hair is still the same.” I couldnt remember where Id met him. He then told me he was the man who had given me lunch and helped me find a lift all those years ago. It was Gordon.21.

People should offer free rides to others.B A well-dressed man entered a famous jewelry shop. He explained that he wished to buy a pearl（珍珠）for his wifes birthday. The price didnt matter, since business had been very good for him that year. After examining a nice black one that costs $5, 000, he paid for the pearl in cash, shook hands with the jeweler, and left. A few days later the man returned and said that his wife liked the pearl so much that she wanted another one just like it. It had to be exactly the same size and quality as she wanted a pair of earrings made. “Can you give me any advice on how to get such a pearl?” said the man. The jeweler regretfully replied, “I would say its exactly impossible to find one exactly like that pearl.” The rich man insisted that the jeweler advertise in the newspapers, offering $25,000 for the matching pearl. Many people answered the advertisement but nobody had a pearl that was just right. Just when the jeweler had given up hope, a little old lady came into his store. To his great surprise, she pulled the perfect pearl from her purse. “I dont like to part with it” she said sadly, I got it from my mother, and, my mother got it from hers. But I really need the money. The jeweler was quickly to pay her before she changed her mind .Then he called the rich mans hotel to tell him the good news .The man, however, was nowhere to be found.25. The man said he wanted to buy a pearl for _.A. no oneB. his wife C. his own mother D. his mother-in-law26.

The jeweler couldnt find the man anywhere because _.A.he died suddenly B. he happened to be outC. he wouldnt show up until the jeweler called him a second timeD. he got $20,000 by cheating and had run away with the moneyC The rising costs of health care have become a problem for many countries in the world. To deal with this problem, it is recommended that a big part of the governments health budget be used for health education and disease prevention instead of treatment. Actually, many kinds of diseases are preventable in many ways and preventing a disease is usually much cheaper than treating it. For example, people could avoid catching a cold if they dressed warmly when the weather starts getting cold. But many people get sick because they fail to do so, and have to spend money seeing a doctor. Daily habits like eating more healthy food would have kept millions of families from becoming bankrupt if the patients had taken measures for early prevention. For instance, keeping a balanced diet, such as not consuming too much animal fat and insuring a steady intake of vegetables and fruits, seems to be quite important. One very effective and costless way of prevention is regular exercise, which is necessary for a healthy mind and body. Regular exercise, such as running, walking, and playing sports is a good way to make people feel better or reduce stress. In addition, health education plays a key role in improving peoples health. By giving people more information about health, countries could help people understand the importance of disease prevention and ways to achieve it. For example, knowing ones family medical history is an effective way to help keep healthy. Information about health problems among close relatives will make them aware of what they should do to prevent certain diseases through lifestyle changes, which will work before it is too late. However, stressing disease prevention does not mean medical treatment is unimportant. After all, prevention and treatment are just two different means toward the same effect. In conclusion, we could save money on health care and treat patients more successfully if our country spends more money on health prevention and education. 30.Whats the best title of the passage?A. Prevention or Treatment? B. Prevention or Education?C. Health or Illness? D. Exercise or Illness?31.Which of the following can replace the underlined word “bankrupt?A. Unable to be cured B. Unable to pay ones debtsC. Stronger than ever before D. More successful than ever before32.We learn from the passage that .A. dressing warmly can prevent diseasesB. the more health education, the betterC. a balanced diet is cheaper than regular exerciseD. the governments health budget should be increasedDThe 1900 House The Bowler family was one of more than 400 families who applied to 1900 House, a reality TV show which took a typical family back a hundred years to see how people lived in the days before the Internet, computer games and even electricity. The Bowler family spent three months in a London home without a telephone, computers, TV, or fast food. The Bowlers wore clothes from 1900, ate only food available in England at that time, and cooked their meals on a single stove. Paul Bowler still went to work every day in a then uniform. The children changed their clothes on the way to and from school and their classmates didnt know about their unusual home life. Joyce stayed at home, cooking and cleaning like a typical housewife of the time, though everything took three times as long. So does Joyce think that peoples lives were better in the old days? “I think people in the old days had just as many troubles and worries,” Joyce said, “and I dont think their life was better or worse. There were lots of things back then that Im happy I dont have to deal with nowadays, but on the other hand life was simpler.” “We had a lot more time with our family, and it was hard being nice to each other all the time,” eleven-year-old Hilary said. So what did the Bowler family miss most about modern life while living in the 1900 house? Paul, 39: “telephone and a hot shower” Joyce, 44: “a quick cup of tea from a kettle you could just turn on” Hilary, 11: “rock CD” Joseph, 9: “hamburger and computer games”33.

Life was simpler but worse than it is now.D. The family had more time to stay together.35. What would Hilary expect most from modern life in the three months?A.To listen to music. B.
