Amy and Mark Blaubach were very excited about adopting a child from an orphanage (孤兒院). They thought they would adopt a baby girl. After waiting one and a half years, the social worker asked them to consider adopting a six-year-old boy named Jerry.
After the adoption papers were signed, Amy asked if Jerry had a good friend at the orphanage. Jerry said his best friend was Zack. That was the first time that Amy heard about Zack.

On Sunday while I was having my own Father’s Day celebration, I thought about my dad a lot. By the time I called to tell him that I loved him, he had already gone to bed. So I wrote the following to show what my dad means to me.
About 28 years ago, my dad was a used car salesman. Every Thursday night, he would head off to Shreveport, LA for the auction（拍賣會(huì)）. Most of the time, I drove a car over there for him so he could sell it there.
One day, I was riding with my dad to Shreveport for the auction when he found a hitchhiker（搭車者）with a backpack. As soon as dad saw him, he pulled the car over and offered him a ride. Dad asked him his name and continued to talk to him about all sorts of things. I can’t recall why but he told dad a lot of terrible things that had occurred to him. I sat in the back seat and watched the scene with amazement. I could see that the hitchhiker changed his attitude as he could tell someone who was really listening to him.
We drove another forty-five minutes before we had to exit the interstate（州際公路）. We pulled over and dad told him to keep his head up and things would start looking up for him soon. He reached into his pocket and handed the hitchhiker a twenty-dollar bill and then a the-dollar bill.
We drove on and my dad did not say a single thing. I was still completely amazed by what I just witnessed. I was always told everyone to never pick up a hitchhiker and yet my dad did it every single time he saw one. I’m sure that it made that poor man’s day, probably a month to follow.
While reflecting upon that story, I learned a lot about my dad and life. I learned that if you come from a place of service or compassion, you can change people’s lives. Just one single kind act can change someone’s life. It never occurred to my dad about not stopping to help him.
This is the type of person my dad is. Thank you for setting such high standards for me to follow.
Dad, I love you. Happy Father’s Day!
小題1:The author and his dad met a hitchhiker（搭車者）_______.
A．when they were just warned not to pick up a stranger
B．on their way to Shreveport to sell a car
C．on their way to the west for a trip
D．when their car was running out of gas
小題2:What do we learn about the hitchhiker from the passage?
A．Something unpleasant occurred to him.
B．He was going to the auction.
C．At first he didn’t believe in the author.
D．It was he who bought the author’s car.
小題3:How did the author feel about his dad’s behavior at that time?
A．AngryB．AppreciatedC．Surprised D．Ashamed
小題4:What did the author learn from his father?
A．Just a single kind act can make a difference.
B．Try learning to be a good listener.
C．Set high standards for yourself in life.
D．Offering a ride to a stranger is dangerous.

Boxing games are truly widely supported by a lot of people over the world . The sport involves two people fighting with each other inside a ring with a referee making sure that the fight goes on smoothly. The fighters have to be of the same weight to be able to fight and they make use of their fists according to the rules of competition.
There are three ways in winning the game. First, you have to knock out the challenger. Secondly, there is the technical knockout (擊倒). This usually happens when the rival is seriously hurt and unable to carry on and defend himself. Thirdly, each boxer gets on with the fight until the last round is over and done with and the winner is judged according to the scores he gets.
The first boxing champion was James Figg who came from England. It was in 1719 that the word "boxing" was known. The sport then was completely different from what you are used to seeing and observing nowadays. In 1743 Jack Broughton, a boxing title holder, was responsible for coming up with the rules and regulations to make the fight more manageable.
Under these rules, a boxer who falls and does not fight after 30 seconds has elapsed is declared the loser and any fighter is prevented from hitting his opponent when he is already down. Broughton was also the one who created the mufflers -- a kind of gloves with padding which were used during presentations and training.
Today, the sport has a total of 12 rounds with three minutes playing time for each round. Boxers are given a minute for them to rest or for consultation with their respective coaches. A referee has the responsibility of making sure that the boxers carry on with the fight according to the rules of the sport. The judges have the task of evaluating each fighter and give the fighter scores according to their punches(拳法).

A．The first boxing champion was James Figg from Scotland.

Australia has passed regulations that will enable more international students to further their education in the country.
The new measures were released by the Australian Department of Tertiary Education, Skills, Jobs and Workplace Relations in September and will take effect in mid-2012.
As a result, the student visa application process for overseas students has been simplified, and the deposit (押金) required to study in Australia has been reduced. Language requirements for overseas students have also been eased.
Also, overseas students receiving a higher education in Australia will be granted a working visa lasting from two to four years after graduation, as long as they meet the basic IELTS requirement.
"This change will definitely make Australia a more attractive destination for Chinese students planning to study overseas," says Wang Lan , a consultant from Education International Cooperation Group (EIC), a Beijing-based company that provides services to students wishing to study overseas.
However, in the past few years, many of Wang's student clients (客戶) could not start studies in Australia because they did not meet the language requirements, visa processing took a long time and deposit regulations were tough. The change in policy is good news for the parents of students wishing to study in Australia, Wang says.
A 22-year-old female student surnamed Li, in Beijing, who is planning to do her  postgraduate studies in Australia, learned about the policy change several weeks ago.
"According to the previous deposit requirement for my student visa, my family was required to put down 550,000 Yuan ($86,850). Now we only need to prepare 410,000 Yuan. This is a relief for my parents," Li says.
She also says that the two to four years working visa makes her feel much clearer about her study plans.
"I believe several years of working experience abroad will strengthen my competitiveness when I return to China," she says.
Gaining a competitive advantage is the major reason for Chinese students to study abroad, according to the report by EIC.
小題1:What's the main idea of the passage? 
A．Language requirement for overseas students have been eased in Australia.
B．Australia is a most attractive place for students in China.
C．Australia widens window of opportunity for international students.
D．More students will work in Australia after their graduation.
小題2:Which of the following is NOT the content of the new regulations? 
A．The student visa application process for overseas students has been simplified.
B．The deposit required to study in Australia has been reduced.
C．Language requirements for overseas students have been more difficult.
D．After graduation, some overseas students can get a working visa in Australia.
小題3:After the new regulations are passed, _______ . 
A．more students will come to Australia to work
B．more Chinese students will choose to live in Australia.
C．the opportunities to work in Australia decrease for overseas students
D．more Chinese students will choose to further their education in Australia
小題4:How much can Li's parents save according to the new regulations? 
A．550,000 yuanB．140,000 yuan
C．410,000 yuanD．86,850 yuan
小題5:Why do many students want to work in Australia after their graduation? 
A．The working experience abroad will strengthen their competitiveness.
B．They can earn more money in Australia.
C．Their working experience can make them stay in Australia forever.
D．They have to do so according to the new regulations.

Thanksgiving(感恩節(jié)) Day was near. The first grade teacher gave her class a fun task——to draw a picture of something for which they were thankful.
Most of the class would celebrate the holiday with turkey(火雞) and other traditional goodies(好吃的東西) of season. These, the teacher thought, would be the subjects of her students’ art. And they were. But Douglas made a different kind of picture. He drew a hand. Nothing else. Just an empty hand. Douglas was a different kind of boy. Most of the time, as other children played together, Douglas was likely to stand close by her side. Everyone could guess the pain he felt from his eyes.
His picture interested other students. Whose hands could it be? One child guessed it was the hand of a farmer, because farmers raise turkeys. Another suggested a police officer, because the police protect and care for people. Still others guessed it was the hand of God, for Gold feeds us.
The teacher stopped at Douglas desk, bent down, and asked him whose hand it was. The little boy looked away and said, “ It’s yours, teacher.”
She recalled the times she had taken his hand and walked with him here and there. How often had she said, “Take my hand, Douglas, we’ ll go outside.” or, “ Let me show you how to hold your pencil.” Douglas was thankful for his teacher’s hand. It means much to Douglas. He might not always say thanks, but he’ll remember the hand that reaches out. She wiped her tears away and went on with her work.
小題1:What did most students think of when given the task?
A．HandB．TurkeyC．GodD．Farmer
小題2:Douglas drew an empty hand in order to_____.
A．show thanks to his teacherB．a(chǎn)sk for a turkey
C．a(chǎn)ttract other students’ attentionD．make the teacher cry
小題3:How did the teacher feel when Douglas told her the answer?
A．SadB．HappyC．MovedD．Interested.
小題4:The underlined word “recall” in paragraph 5 means_____.
A．passB．spendC．wasteD．remember
