I explained my life 47 and told him about my 48 performance on the Army test.

In a hurry to dive into the cool water, he ran out of the back door, leaving behind shoes, socks, and shirt as he went.He flew into the water, not realizing that as he swam toward the middle of the lake, a crocodile was swimming toward him. His mother in the house was looking out of the window and saw the two. In great fear, she ran toward the water, shouting to her son as loudly as she could. Hearing her voice, the little boy became alarmed and made a U-turn to swim to his mother. It was too late. Just as he reached her, the crocodile reached him. From the shore, the mother grabbed her little boy by the arms just as the crocodile snatched his legs. That began an incredible tug-of-war between the two. The crocodile was much stronger than the mother, but the mother was much too passionate to let go. A farmer happened to drive by, heard their screams, raced from his truck, took aim and shot the crocodile.Remarkably, after weeks and weeks in the hospital, the little boy survived. His legs were extremely scarred by the attack of the animal. And, on his arms, were deep scratches where his mothers fingernails dug into his flesh in her effort to hang on to the son she loved.The newspaper reporter, who interviewed the boy, asked if he would show him his scars. The boy lifted his legs. And then, with obvious pride, he said to the reporter, “But look at my arms. I have great scars on my arms, too. I have them because my Mom wouldnt let go.”Never judge another persons scars, because you dont know how they were made. 56.Which of the following will be the best title for the text?A. Scars of Love B. A Brave MotherC. A Terrible Experience D. Dont Judge by Appearance57.

A crocodile attacked him when the boy and his mother were swimming.B. The crocodile bit the arms of the boy when it reached him.C. There is always an interesting story behind every scar.D.

I have great scars on my arms, too” in paragraph 4, the boy really wants to show_.A. how deep the scars were B. what a brave boy he was C. how great and beloved his mother was D. how many scars and scratches he had BAn explosion on Thursday killed one and injured 21 in a busy street in Tongren, Southwest Chinas Guizhou ProvinceThe bomb was hidden in a rubbish bin in the citys commercial hub，where lots of shops and restaurants are concentratedThe ear-splitting explosion was heard around 12: 50 p.m., said a local newspaper, which was described by witnesses.

Street Explosion Kills 1, Injures 21CI had my first job at the age of thirteen, when a friend of my mother who owned a bookshop hired me for six hours a week to help her in the shop. I was very proud to earn my own pocket money and my parents never interfered(干涉) with how I spent it, even when I was spending it foolishly. They believed that by earning money, spending it, and learning from the mistakes, I would become more mature and responsible about how to handle work, relationships with others, and money.Like many American parents, my parents also let me and my brothers do things over which they worried a great deal. When I was sixteen, for example, after I finished high school and before I entered university, I wanted to spend the summer months traveling around Europe. My mother was against the idea of my traveling alone at such a young age, but my father felt that it would be a great experience for me. In the end, my father won the argument on the condition that I limited my traveling to France, my mother s home, where I had many uncles, aunts and cousins spread out through the country who could provide shelter and help if I needed them.Three years later, my younger brother decided to take a year off after his first year in university and travel through the United States and the Caribbean. Again my mother was very worried and not eager to see my brother leave school, but my father encouraged him and my brother had a fascinating year working his way on trains and ships to earn passage to different ports and cities, and discovering many fascinating places and people.These kinds of experiences are probably rare for children in many countries but in the US they are fairly common. Most parents start pushing their children at a young age to do small things by themselves. By the time they have finished high school, many American kids have already had part-time jobs, traveled around the US or other countries on their own, have selected the university they plan to attend and maybe even decided on their future career, and so on.64. The writers parents allowed their kids to travel so that _.A. it could make the kids become braverB. the kids could earn some pocket moneyC. the kids could find jobs more easilyD. it could bring good to the kids future65. The writer thinks _.A. his brother gained valuable experiences during the travelB. his brother earned a lot of money by workingC. his brother didnt disappoint his fatherD. his brothers travel was better than his to France66. Which of the following statements is True?A. The author went to France in order to see his relatives.B. The authors mother managed to stop the kids doing dangerous traveling.C. The author s brother gave up his university to travel in the USA and the Caribbean.D. Many American parents encourage their kids do things independently to prepare for the future. 67. The text is mainly about the writer and his brothers stories to _.A. do some part-time jobs B. become independent C. travel for experiences D. earn pocket moneyDMichael, a normal American, stays home on workdays. He plugs into his personal computer terminal in order to connect with the office. After work he puts on his headphones, watches a movie on his home video recorder or plays baseball on the computer. On many days, Michael doesnt talk to any other human beings, and he doesnt see any people except the ones on television. Michael is imaginary, but his life style is very possible. The inventions of modern technology seem to be cutting us off from communicating with our fellow human beings. The world of business is one area in which technology is separating us. Experts say, for example, that many people will soon be able to work at home. With access to a large central computer, employees such as office clerks, insurance agents, and accountants could do their job at display terminals in their own homes. They would never have to actually see the people theyre dealing with. Also, the way employees are paid will change. Workers salaries will be automatically paid into their bank accounts, making paper checks unnecessary. No workers will stand in line to receive their pay or cash their checks. Personal banking will change, too. Customers will deal with machines to put in or take out money from their accounts. Another area in which technology is changing is entertainment. Music, for instance, was once a group experience. People listened to music at concert halls or in small social gatherings. For many people now, however, music is an individual experience. Walking along the street or sitting in their living rooms, they wear headphones to build a wall of music around them. Movie entertainment is changing, too. Movies used to be social events. Now, fewer people are going out to see a movie. Many more are choosing to wait for a film to appear on television or are borrowing videotapes to watch at home. Instead of laughing with others, viewers watch movies in their own living rooms.68. The underlined sentence in the first
