At midnight, several hours after she had left Newfoundland, she ran into bad weather. To make things worse, her altimeter failed to work. (The altimeter shows the height of the plane above the ground.) At night, and in a storm, a pilot is in great difficulty without an altimeter. At times, her plane nearly plunged into the Atlantic Ocean. Just before daylight, there was further trouble. Amelia noticed flames coming from the engine. Would she be able to reach land? There was nothing to do except to keep going and to hope. Amelia Earhart did reach Ireland, and for the courage she had shown, she was warmly welcomed in England and Europe. When she returned to the United States, she was honored by President Hoover at a special dinner in the White House. From that time on, Amelia Earhart was famous. What was so important about her flight? Amelia Earhart was the first woman to fly the Atlantic Ocean alone, and she had set a record of fourteen hours and fifty-six minutes.40. Amelia was _. A. an American B. an Englishwoman C. a European D. living near the Atlantic41. She ran into bad weather. Here ran into means _. A. rushed into B. raced into C. met into D. met42. Amelias successful flight has proved that _. A. women can do everything B. women can do things, as men have done C. men and women are equal now D. women pilots are more successful than men pilots43. The title for this passage would be _. A. Amelia Earhart B. A Pilot C. A FlightD. A WomanCEven leaders pay taxAs the president of the US, Barack Obama earns a salary(薪水) of around $400,000 a year. But his income(收入) for 2008 was far more than that, according to the White House.The White House recently published the tax returns of Obama and vice-president Joe Biden. Tax returns are reports of tax a person has to pay. They often include income information used to calculate（计算）the tax. In the US, people whose incomes are over a certain amount have to file (申请) tax returns every year. The tax returns of government officials are open to the public. This transparency (透明) helps to prevent corruption (腐败).From Obamas tax returns, we can see that the president and first lady Michelle made about $2.66 million in 2008.Most of the money came from the sales of the presidents two books Dreams From My Father, and The Audacity of Hope (无畏的梦想). The two books, published in 1995 and 2006, are very popular and have been on the bestseller (畅销书) list for a long time.The Obamas income is down from 2007, when they made $4.2 million. However, that is still far more than former US president George W. Bush earned, who reported a total of $719,274 for his final year. The Obamas income also greatly exceeded (超过) that of Biden, who reported a family income of $269,256. Thats about a tenth of what the Obamas earned. As vice-president, Biden earns a salary of $220,000. US families earn an average income of about $50,000.The Obamas tax returns also show that together, the president and his wife paid about $933,000 in taxes. They gave $172,050 - nearly 6.5 percent of their earnings to different charity groups. In the US, if a person gives his money to churches and non-profit (非盈利的) organizations, the law reduces his or her taxes. This is one reason rich people in the US like to give to charity.44. What are tax returns? A. They are reports published by the White House. B. They are reports made by the president. C. They are reports of tax a person has to pay. D. They are reports of peoples incomes.45. How much did Obama and his wife earn in 2008? A. $400,000 B. $2,660,000 C. $4,200,000 D. $7,191,27446. In the US, which people have to file tax returns? A. Everybody. B. Wealthy people. C. Government officials. D. People whose incomes are over a certain amount.D Tai Zhou, China Travel CompanyBeijing is the place to be visitedBest of Beijing 5 DaysFrom ￥7992 nights Beijing Hotel&2 nights Changcheng HotelBook online or Beijing Hotel:Close to Tiananmen SquarePrize-winning gardenBars &French restaurantSwimming poolChangcheng Hotel:Gardens with mountain viewsRestaurants &CafeNight ClubBuses to the downtownDeparture Date PriceJun. 8, 2007 ￥899Jul.29, 2007 ￥999Aug.30, 2007 ￥799Sept.30, 2007 ￥1299To book, choose yourpreferred departure dateBusiness HoursWeekdays: 24 hoursWeekends:8:00am-6:00pm47.

But do you know what future really is? I have to say that future is now. That is to say we must treasure every minute now. If we want to have a bright future, we should know how important time is and use it well.There is an old English saying: “Gain time, gain life.” Then whats time? Time is something that we cant see or touch, but we can feel it passing by. Time is always with us. When we are at table, time passes; when we play, time goes by unnoticeable. We always say “Time is money”, but time is even more precious(珍贵的)than money, because when money is spent , we can earn it back. But if time is gone away, it will never return. So, some of us even say time is priceless(无价的).We should always remember: future is now. For us students, we should try our best to work hard in order to create a great future of our own. We should make the best use of every hour and be the master of today. We should do everything before us as well as possible. And never put off what can be done today till tomorrow.As we all know, “Time and tide wait for no man.” If you waste today, you will regret tomorrow. So from now
