Chinese proverbs are rich and they are still widely used in Chinese people’s daily life.   1  these proverbs there are often interesting stories. For example, the proverb, “plucking up a crop   2 (help) it grow”, is based on the following story.
It is said that a short—tempered man in the Song Dynasty (960—1279) was very anxious to help   3 rice crop grow up quickly. He was thinking about   4  day and night. But the crop was growing much slower than he expected.
One day, he came up with an idea   5  he would pluck up all of his crop a few inches. He did so the next day.
He was very tired  6  doing this for a whole day,   7  he felt very happy since the crop did “grow”  8 (high).
His son heard about this and went to see the crop. Unfortunately the leaves of the crop began to wither.
This proverb is saying we have to let things go in their   9 (nature) course. Being too anxious to help an event develop often   10 (result) in the contrary to our intention.

Jonathan James looks like just another kid about to graduate from high school. But this 19-year-old Swede is anything but ordinary, from the computer in his parents’ home he helps the US Federal Bureau of Investigation(FBI) find out the world’s most wanted cyber criminals(網(wǎng)絡犯罪分子).
Jonathan first made headlines when he and another Swede, Fredrik Bjoerck, found out the maker of the “Melissa” virus(病毒) in March 1999. He came to the aid of the FBI again on May 7, finding out the suspected(嫌疑的) sender of the dangerous “I LOVE YOU” virus. The suspect was caught in Manila on May 8.
Jonathan’s special skills are in hot demand as officials around the world express alarm at the “virtual” crimewave. In between studying for final exams, hanging out with friends and refereeing his younger brother’s football matches, the quiet, gentle teenager also gives lessons on e-security(電子安全) to large companies. He reads a lot and exchanges information with other computer experts to know much about the latest tricks of the hacker (黑客) trade.
Many companies have already tried to employ him, but he is not interested at the moment. Instead, he plans to begin law school in the autumn at Sweden’s Uppsala University and start up his own e-security company.
Although he works with the FBI now, his family insists he’s just “a regular kid”. “Jonathan is a great kid, he has his friends and he does a lot more than just play with the computer,” his little sister Tessa said, adding that he helps the FBI because “he likes to help”, not because he’s looking for fame and recognition.
When the world was hit by the “Love Bug” virus, Jonathan was too busy preparing a speech on e-security to look into the problem. “Finally on May 7, I had some free time, so I began looking.” Within a few hours, he had found the suspect and e-mailed his method and results to the FBI. He said his work on the “Melissa” virus, which took three weeks to solve, was a big help in finding the suspect so quickly.
“This time I knew exactly where to start, I knew what to disregard and what to look at.”
小題1: The passage mainly wants to tell us that______.
A．Swedish kid helps FBI find out the most wanted cyber criminals
B．Jonathan is really a quiet, gentle and ordinary boy
C．many companies want the young computer expert to join in
D．a(chǎn)ny cyber criminals will surely be found out wherever they are
小題2:The public started to know something about Jonathan just from____.
A．his helping the US FBI to find out the sender of the dangerous “I LOVE YOU” virus
B．his work together with Fredrik Bjoerck to find out the maker of the “Melissa” virus
C．his little sister’s talk about his good qualities as a regular kid and a good programmer
D．his speech on e-security to many computer companies after his fight against hackers
小題3:From Jonathan’s success in finding out the sender of the dangerous ‘Love Bug” virus we can infer that ___.
A．where there’s a will, there’s a wayB．experience is knowledge

小題4:What do we know about Jonathan?
A．He is a good fame hunter with various abilities.
B．He is such a brave fighter that any criminal will feel afraid.

Looking back on  my childhood, I am convinced that naturalists are born and not made.  Although we were all brought up in the same way,my br others and sisters soon abandoned their pressed flowers and insects. Unlike them,I had no ear for music and languages. I was not an early reader and I could not do mental arithmetic.
Before World War I we spent our summer holidays in Hungary. I have only the dim memory of the house we lived in, of my room and my toys. Nor do I recall clearly the large family of grandparents,aunts, uncles and cousins who gathered next door. But I do have a clear memory of the dogs, the farm animals, the local birds, and above all, the insects.
I am a naturalist, not a scientist. I have a strong love of the natural world and my enthusiasm had led me into varied investigations. I love discussing my favorite topics and enjoy burning the midnight oil reading about other people's observations and discoveries. Then something happens that brings these observations together in my conscious mind. Suddenly you fancy you see the answer to the riddle, because it all seems to fit together. This has resulted in my publishing 300 papers and books, which some might honor with the title of scientific research.
But curiosity,a keen eye,a good memory and enjoyment of the animal and plant world do not make a scientist: one of the outstanding  and essential qualities required is self?discipline, a quality I lack. A scientist, up to a certain point,can be made. A naturalist is born. If you can combine the two,you get the best of both worlds.
1.The first paragraph tells us the author .      
A.was interested in flowers and insects in his childhood 
B.lost his hearing when he was a child
C.didn’t like his brothers and sisters    
D.was born to a naturalist’s family
2.The author can’t remember his relatives clearly because         .
A.he didn’t live very long with them   
B.the family was extremely large
C.he was too young when he lived with them  
D.he was fully occupied with observing nature
3.It can be inferred from the passage that the author was         .
A.a scientist as well as a naturalist   
B.a naturalist but not a scientist
C.no more than a born naturalist        
D.first of all a scientist
4.The author says that he is a naturalist rather than a scientist probably because he thinks he         .
A.has a great deal of trouble doing mental arithmetic
B.lacks some of the qualities required of a scientist
C.just reads about other people’s observations and discoveries
D.comes up with solutions in a most natural way

Outside her shabby cottage, old Mrs. Tailor was hanging out laundry on a wire line, unaware that some children lay hidden in the leaves of a nearby tree watching her every move. They were determined to find out if she really was a witch.
They watched as she took a broomstick to clean the dirt from her stone steps. But, much to their disappointment, she did not mount the broomstick and take flight. Suddenly, the old lady’s work was interrupted by the cackling of her hen—a signal that an egg had been laid in the warm nest on top of the haystack.
The old broomstick was put aside as she hobbled off towards the haystack followed by Sooty, a black cat she had rescued from a fox trap some time back. With only three legs, it was hard for Sooty to keep up with the old lady. The cat provided proof—the children were sure that only a witch could own a black cat with three legs.
There, standing on a wooden box, was Mrs. Tailor, stretching out to gather her precious egg. Taking the egg in one of her hands, she began to climb down when, without warning, the box broke and the old lady fell.
“We have to got and help her,” whispered Amy.
“What if it is a trick?” replied Ben.
“Don’t be silly, Ben. If she were a witch, she would have turned us into frogs already,” reasoned Meg. “Come on Amy, let’s go.” The girls climbed down the tree and ran all the way to the haystack.
Approaching carefully, they could see a wound on the old lady’s face. She had knocked her head on a stone and her ankle was definitely broken. “Go and get Dad,” Amy yelled to her brother. “Tell him about the accident.”
The boys did not need another excuse to leave. They ran as fast as they could for help, hoping that Mrs. Tailor would not wake and turn the girls into frogs.
小題1:. Why were the children hiding in the tree?
A．They wanted to watch Mrs. Tailor do her housework closely.
B．They were playing a hide-and-seek game
C．They wanted to find out if the rumors about Mrs. Tailor were true
D．They were pretending to be spies
小題2:. Mrs. Tailor stopped sweeping when____
A．her front steps were cleanB．she noticed the children in the tree
C．she was ready to take a flightD．she heard the hen cackling
小題3:. Ben did not rush in help Mrs. Tailor because_____
A．he thought that she could be tricking them
B．he knew that they could not have been in the tree
C．he did not see the old lady fall down
D．he was afraid of the three-legged cat
小題4:. Which of these old sayings best suits the story’s lesson for us?
A．Make hay while the sun shines.
B．Never judge a book by its cover.
C．People in glasshouses should not throw stones.
D．A bird in the hands worth two in the bush.
