Bill and his family has been living in the six-family building for years. All the neighbours got along fairly well each other until recently. An old man and his wife used to live on the second floor. Bills mother and the old lady were good friends. Unfortunately the old lady died last month. Her husband could not live alone, so he had his grandson move over and live with him. The grandson has become a problem to all the neighbours, especially to Bills family. The walls of the building are thin and he is noisy. Bill is used to peace and quiet but the young man likes to the radio late at night. Sometimes friends of his visit and they make a lot of noise. That is too much for Bills family. Bills mother once asked the old man politely if he was able to sleep well at night, but obviously the man didnt understand what she meant.

Stock markets in Paris, London, Tokyo, Shanghai and New York are among the largest and most well-known. The stock, also called stock exchange, is a place where people can buy or sell shares of a factory or company. And each share means certain ownership of a factory or company. Different people go to stock markets. Some are rich, who want to get more money than they have. Others are not very rich, who buy stocks to try to become rich. Still others buy stocks as part of their plan to save money. Of course, investing（投资）money in the stock market is not the safest way to make money. No one can tell exactly whether the shares will be doing well. The factory or company may do badly. Then the stocks will go down, and the investors will lose money. The stock may go up or down for a number of untold reasons. Everyone wants the stock to go up, but sometimes even if a factory or company does a good job, the stock may still go down. No wonder going to the stock market is often compared to gambling（赌博）.All are eager to make money by gambling in the stock market. Factories and companies that need money are pleased that so many people are willing to gamble. Indeed, the stock market is an attractive and complex part of the business world.1).If you are a good investor, _in the stock market.A.you can always make moneyB.you can tell exactly when the stock goes up or downC.you may sometimes lose moneyD.your gambling is always safe满分：4分2).The passage mainly wants to tell us _.A.how to buy or sell sharesB.A B C of stock marketC.the stock market is like gamblingD.investing money in the stock market is not the safest way满分：4分3).If a factory or company does a bad job, the stock price will probably _.A.keep in the same levelB.go downC.riseD.there is no relationship between a companys job and stock price满分：4分4).Factories and companies are pleased that so many people gamble because _.A.they can make them richB.they need more people to work for themC.they need their money to do businessD.some people win and some lose满分：4分5).The word complex in the last sentence probably means _.A.completeB.WorthyC.difficultD.modern满分：4分3. Elizabeth Blackwell was born in England in 1821, and moved to New York City when she was ten years old. One day she decided that she wanted to become a doctor. That was nearly impossible for a woman in the middle of the nineteenth century. After writing many letters asking for admission(录取) to medical schools, she was finally accepted by a doctor in Philadelphia. She was so determined that she taught school and gave music lessons to get money for the cost of schooling. In 1849, after graduation from medical school.she decided to further her education in Paris. She wanted to be a surgeon(外科医师) , but a serious eye problem forced her to give up the idea. Upon returning to the United States, she found it difficult to start her own practice because she was a woman. By 1857 Elizabeth and her sister, also a doctor, along with another woman doctor, managed to open a new hospital, the first for women and children. Besides being the first woman physician and founding her own hospital, she also set up the first medical school for women.1).Why couldnt Elizabeth Blackwell realize her dream of becoming a surgeon?A.She couldnt get admitted to medical schoolB.She decided to further her education in ParisC.A serio
