9．Willy，a merchant，returned home to his own country from a faraway continent，where he had succeeded in making a small fortune by hard work．He found on arriving at the port that all his relatives were having a large party．
He was in such a happy mood and the joy of the moment that he did not even bother changing his grey flannel（法蘭絨）suit which had become a little worn during the trip home．
When he entered the brilliantly lit room，his relatives and friends gave him a rather cold welcome because they had noticed his modest suit and immediately imagined that he had come back a poor man．
A young man who happened to be accompanying him was quite irritated  at this and said to Willy，"What a wonderful reception you have received from these people．They have not even the intention of shaking your hand after all these years that you have been away from home．"
"Just wait and see!"whispered Willy，"They will soon change their looks!"Saying this he slipped a precious ring on his finger．All of a sudden the faces of all those present lit up and immediately Willy was surrounded by so many people that he didn't know what to do．A man shook his hand，a cousin threw his arms around him，and he had so many invitations from the people present that he thought he would be unable to make any other appointments for several years．
"Has this beautiful，precious ring of yours the power of magic people？"asked the young man．
"Oh，no!"replied Willy，"They see in this glittering diamond ring something that makes them think I am rich，and，unfortunately，they place wealth above everything else．"
"What blind people!"exclaimed the young man．"It is not the ring that has drawn them to you but their desire for riches．Is it possible to appreciate more a piece of yellow metal surrounded by little stones than the goodness of my Lord？And indeed how foolish are people who place their trust in riches rather than in virtues（美德）!"
28．In what way did Willy go to attend the party held by his relatives and friends？B
A．In a modest mood．
B．In travel-soiled clothes．
C．Wearing a precious jewel．
D．Without being accompanied．
29．The word"irritated"in the fourth paragraph is closest in meaning to"C"．
A．exc ited          B．pleased          C．a(chǎn)ngry            D．envious 
30．According to the young man，people shouldD．
A．give up all the physical wealth  
B．a(chǎn)ppreciate more jewelry than goodness
C．observe carefully when judging a person 
D．a(chǎn)void being blinded by the desire for wealth
31．Which can be the best title of the passage？A
A．The Diamond Ring                
B．The Welcome Party
C．The Modest Clothes                  
D．The Joyful Crowd．

4．How did it make you feel when you learned that KFC'S Beijing restaurants pulled three more items from their menus last week？There were fears that the items may have contained the cancer-causing coloring Sudan I．Do you have any desire to take the food provider to court because it feeds you something dangerous？
 After all，the law supposedly gives people the right to fight for their rights．But some experts have said it might not be so wise to take the company directly to court．
 Qiu Baochang，a lawyer in Beijing，suggested that consumers not take the company directly to court．"In addition to the high costs，consumers'complaints are unlikely to win unless they can prove they have had the banned dye （染料） at KFC，"-Qiu explained．
 One problem for those wanting to take action against the fast food chain is that few customers ask for or keep receipts（收據(jù)）．And，this must be the first step．
 If they can prove that their health has been damaged by KFC，they can accuse the company．But that would be almost impossible to do so because the Sudan I damage is a long-term effect and is not immediately apparent．
A KFC spokesperson said on Monday that the company was confident of being able to handle customers'complaints，"We will obey legal procedure if we receive any complaints．"
24．Why did KFC's Beijing restaurants pull three more items from their menus？B
A．Because the company was afraid to handle customers'complaints．
B．Because coloring Sudan I may have been contained in those items．
C．Because the KFC's restaurants were accused of selling poisonous food to the customers．
D．Because these items were no longer popular with the customers．
25．The reason why experts suggested not taking the company directly to court is thatD．
A．the costs will be high
B．consumers can't prove food contained Sudan I
C．consumers can't prove the food at KFC damaged their health
D．a(chǎn)ll of the above
26．This passage most probably appears inD．
A．a(chǎn) notice．
B．a(chǎn) book on cooking．
C．a(chǎn) story book．
D．a(chǎn) newspaper．
27．What is the general idea of the passage？A
A．That KFC's Beijing restaurants pulled three items from their menus last week．
B．How the consumers dealt with the KFC problem．
C．How KFC handled the customers'complaints．
D．That consumers never forget to ask for or keep receipts．

14．The kids in a village in Ethiopia wear dirty，ragged clothes．They sleep beside cows and sheep in huts made of sticks and mud．They have no school．Yet they all can chant the English alphabet，and some can make words．
The key to their success：20 tablet computers（平板電腦） dropped off in their Ethiopian village in February by a U．S．group called One Laptop Per Child．
The goal is to find out whether kids using today's new technology can teach themselves to read in places where there are no schools or teachers．The Massachusetts Institute of Technology researchers analyzing the project data say they're already amazed．"What I think has already happened is that the kids have already learned more than they would have in one year of kindergarten，"said Matt Keller，who runs the Ethiopia program．
The fastest learner-and the first to turn on one of the tablets-is 8-year-old Kelbesa Negusse．The device's camera was disabled to save memory，yet within weeks Kelbesa had figured out its workings and made the camera work．He called himself a lion，a marker of accomplishment in Ethiopia．
With his tablet，Kelbasa rearranged the letters HSROE into one of the many English animal names he knows．Then he spelled words on his own．"Seven months ago he didn't know any English．That's unbelievable，"said Keller．
The project aims to get kids to a stage called"deep reading，"where they can read to learn．It won't be in Amharic，Ethiopia's first language，but in English，which is widely seen as the ticket to higher paying jobs．
19．How does the Ethiopia program benefit the kids in the village？B
A．It trains teachers for them．
B．It helps their self-study．
C．It raises their living standards．
D．It provides funds for building schools．
20．What can we infer from Keller's words in Paragraph 3？C
A．They need more time to analyze data．
B．More children are needed for the research．
C．He is confident about the future of the project．
D．The research should be carried out in kindergartens．
21．What is the aim of the project？D
A．To offer Ethiopians higher paying jobs．
B．To make Amharic widely used in the world．
C．To assist Ethiopians in learning their first language．
D．To help Ethiopian kids read to learn in English．

1．Imagine looking for your lost dog．You step into a cave（洞穴）．But instead of the dog，you find beautiful cave paintings．You see paintings of horses，deer，and bison that are drawn in black，brown，red and yellow．Your first question would probably be"Who did this？"
This is what happened to four French boys in 1940．They found the Lascaux caves．The paintings the boys discovered in those caves are 17，000years old．They were drawn by the ancient people called Cro-Magnons．
Cro-Magnons looked much like people of today．They used tools，such as fishing nets．But their art was extremely good．The main cave at Lascaux is called the Great Hall of Bulls，which has a picture of bulls and horses in many colors．The largest animal is 18feet long．There are smaller animals，such as bison，stags（雄鹿） and a bear．There is also a strange spotted two-horned （兩只角的） animal．
To the left of the main cave are the most famous paintings that are the drawings of multicolored animals．One painting is called Little Horses．On the ceiling are horses and cows．The most unusual sight may be in the Shaft of the Dead Man where there is a thinoceros （犀牛），a carefully drawn dead man，a wounded bison and a bird．
Why did Cro-Magnon artists do these beautiful drawings on cave walls？Did the drawings call upon some magical power？Did the Cro-Magnon people hope that the drawings would bring good luck？There is one thing the paintings seem to tell us．The Cro-Magnons were interested in the world．They looked at beauty and they understood it．

21．The author uses the word"you"in the first paragraph toA．
A．pull the reader into the story   
B．make it clear that this is a true story
C．give the reader good directions to find the caves
D．compare present-day readers with the Cro-Magnon people
22．Most of the drawings in the caves are aboutD．
A．boys               B．tools       
C．dead men           D．a(chǎn)nimals
23．What is the main idea of the passage？C
A．Cave paintings are beautiful．
B．Who found the beautiful cave paintings．
C．The Lascanx caves hold ancient colorful paintings．
D．Drawings of horses are on the walls of the Lascaux caves．
