Eighteen! In spite of the hopeless condition, two of the children had a dream. They both wanted to pursue their talent for art. After many long discussions, the two boys finally worked out an agreement. They would toss a coin. The loser would go down into the nearby mines and, with his earnings, support his brother who attended the academy. Then, when that brother who won the toss completed his studies, in four years, he would support the other brother at the academy.They tossed a coin on a Sunday morning after church. Albrecht Durer won and went off to Nuremberg. Albert went down into the dangerous mines and, for the next four years, financed his brother, whose work at the academy was excellent. By the time he graduated, he had earned considerable fees for his works. When the young artist returned to his village, the Durer family held a festive dinner to celebrate Albrechts triumphant homecoming, where Albrecht drank a toast to his beloved brother for the years of sacrifice that had enabled him to fulfill his ambition. His closing words were, “Now you can go to Nuremberg to look for your dream, and I will take care of you.” Tears streaming down his pale face, shaking his lowered head from side to side, Albert sobbed, “No no nono. It is too late for me. Looklook at what four years in the mines has done to my hands! I have been suffering from arthritis (关节炎) so badly in my right hand that I cannot even hold a glass to return your toast, much less draw delicate lines with a pen or a brush For me, it is too late.” To show thanks to Albert for all that he had sacrificed, Albrecht Durer painstakingly drew his brothers abused hands with palms together and thin fingers stretched skyward. He called his powerful drawing simply “Hands”, but the entire world almost immediately opened their hearts to his great masterpiece and renamed it “The Praying Hands”.The next time you see a copy of that touching creation, take a second look. Let it be your reminder, if you still need one, that no one no one no one ever makes it alone!56. The reason why the two brothers worked out the agreement was that _. A. they had no choice but to make a list B. their family was so poor that it couldnt afford the academy C. one of the brothers deserved to go down to mines D. they wanted to think out a way to support the other sisters and brothers57. Which of the following is NOT true about Albrecht Durer? A. He did perfectly well at the academy. B. He intended to support his brother after graduation. C. He didnt begin to earn his living until his graduation. D. He created a masterpiece called “The Praying Hands”.58. What does the end of the passage imply? A. One can achieve success through his individual hard work. B. Success totally depends on good luck and sacrifice. C. Success requires cooperation and contribution. D. No one could succeed without a leader.BAmericans like to think of themselves as martyrs (烈士) to work. At this time of the year they admire the laziness of their European cousins, particularly the French. Studies show that the average American gets only four weeks of paid leave a year compared with seven for the French and eight for the German. In Paris many shops close down for August; in Washington, where the weather is really hot, they remain open, some for 24 hours a day.But when it comes to the young, the situation is just opposite. American children have it easier than most other children in the world, including the supposedly lazy European children. They have one of the shortest school years anywhere, a mere 180 days compared with an average of 195 for OECD countries and more than 200 for East Asian countries. German children spend 20 more days in school than American ones, and South Koreans over a month more. Over 12 years, a 15-day deficit (赤字) means American children lose out on 180 days of school, equal to an entire year.Americans also divide up their school time strangely. They cram (塞满) the school day into the morning and early afternoon, and close their schools for three months in the summer. The long summer vacation acts like a mental eraser, with the average child reportedly forgetting about a months worth of instruction in many subjects and almost three times that in mathematics. American academics have invented a term for this phenomenon, “summer learning loss”. It is leaving American children ill-equipped to compete. They usually perform poorly in international educational tests, coming behind Asian countries that spend less on education but work their children harder. Californias state universities have to send over a third of their classes to take some extra courses in English and math. 59. The main purpose of the first paragraph is to tell us _. A. Americans neednt be to hard-working B. Americans have a wrong way of working C. Americans work too hard D. Americans and Europeans have different working attitudes60. According to the passage, European children _. A. have more pressure in their studiesB. are usually considered to be lazy C. dont need to work hard at their lessonsD. are more diligent than American children61. In the writers opinion, American children _. A. are more creative than children from other countries B. are poorly equipped for the future C. can benefit much from the long vacation D. dont make full use of their school time62. During the long summer vacation, American children _. A. will make up for their lost lessonsB. spend most of the time learning C. probably dont care about studiesD. will suffer some memory problems63. What would be the best title for the passage? A. The Less Diligent American ChildrenB. The School Education in America C. The Work Attitude of AmericansD. The Summer Holidays in AmericaCHARBIN A wild Siberian tiger was spotted on a forestry farm in northeast Chinas Heilongjiang Province on Sunday, forestry officials said Tuesday.The tiger, believed to have been hunting for a wild boar at the time, came face to face with several workers late in the afternoon on a forestry farm administered by the Dongfanghong Forestry Bureau (DFB) in the eastern part of the province, said an official with the provincial Forestry Industry Bureau. The farm is located on the scarcely populated Wandashan Mountain, where wild Siberian tigers have been spotted many times, but it was the first time for such an animal to come so close to human beings.“We had just finished work in the forest when the tiger appeared.” said Shi Chun, one of the workers who saw the tiger. Upon seeing the animal, the workers rushed to their tractor to avoid possible attacks. The tiger followed the tractor for several hundred meters before going away.The tiger remained mild throughout the encounter, and the workers even managed to snap a few photos of it. The pictures, though blurry due to the darkened sky, show a Siberian tiger with white hair in its face. Local authorities on Monday checked the site where the big cat was spotted and found plum-shaped paw prints, which they believe belong to a grown wild Siberian tiger.Yang Lijuan, a wild animal protection official with the DFB, said the forestry farm is a good site for wild animal reproduction. “The farm is in a zone where coniferous and broad-leaved trees grow, which provides much food for the tigers prey, such as a boar and deer.” she said.Siberian tigers, otherwise known as Amur or Manchurian tigers, mainly live in eastern Russia, northeast China and the northern part of the Korean Peninsula. It is estimated that only about 500 currently live in the wild, with about twelve in Heilongjiang Province and eight to ten in neighboring Jilin Province. The DFB has stepped efforts to increase food for wild boar, roe deer and red deer in its forestry farms where Siberian tigers have been spotted to ensure enough prey for the endangered species.64. Where can you find a wild Siberian tiger probably? A. RussiaB. AustraliaC. South ChinaD. Canada65. The underlined word “blurry” in the 4th paragraph has the closest meaning to _. A. brightB. preciousC. frighteningD. unclear66. What does the passage mainly talk about? A. The DFB has stepped efforts to protect the tiger. B. Farmers took photos of a Siberian Tiger. C. Wild Siberian Tiger spotted in Northeast China. D. The Forestry farm is home to Siberian tigers.DPeople often say that money talks. They mean that a person with a lot of money can say how he or she wants things done. But it is not easy to earn enough money to gain this kind of power.Ask anyone in business. They will tell you that it is a jungle out there. The expression probably began because the jungle is filled with wild animals and unknown dangers that threaten people. Sometimes people in business feel competing businesses are as dangerous as wild animals, and that unknown dangers in the business world threaten the survival of their business.Nobody is sure how the word got started. But it began to appear in American newspapers in the 1800s. A newspaper said a criminal whose name was Borghese wrote checks to people although he did not have enough money in the bank, and after that, he would flee from the town. So, people who were paid with his checks received nothing. Americans shortened and changed the criminals name Borghese, to bogus.People trying to earn money also must be aware of being ripped off. A
