I will be the first to say that I am not materialistic. My friends regard me as a goody-goody; my parents say I am conservative and modest when it comes to clothes. None of my skirts or shorts end above my knees.
So why, why did I feel so invited? My family and I were in Target, and there it was, waiting. A skirt, specifically designed not to cover anything. It looked like something that one of those modern schoolgirls would wear.
I checked my purse. The skirt cost $10. I had the money. I could buy it. I imagined walking into school and my friends’ jaws (下巴) dropping. Guys would ask me out, and I would be happy. I could buy it, no, — I should buy it.
I showed my mother. She was surprised but said it was my decision. My sister looked on enviously.
I went into the dressing room to try it on. So sure was I that this skirt would change me, somehow make me not what I am but what I wished to be. I slid my jeans off and put it on. I looked in the mirror. There I was — a terrible girl in a Superman T-shirt and sneakers. My glasses fogged up as I started to cry. www.zxxk.com
The skirt did not change me. Though it fit well and might make me look good in the eyes of today’s world, it was not me. I am not a girl who wears cool clothes to fit in.
I took the thing off and slid back into the comfort of modesty. My mom knocked on the door. “Emily, are you okay?”
I wiped away my tears. “I’m fine.” I looked in the mirror again and saw a slim girl with funny glasses. I saw myself.

試題分析： 本文敘述了一個(gè)女孩子到商店買(mǎi)衣服的事情，她選中了一件和她原來(lái)的風(fēng)格完全不一樣的裙子，最后還是發(fā)現(xiàn)這樣的決定也許會(huì)是錯(cuò)誤的。
1.B 推理題。根據(jù)文章第2段2,3行A skirt, specifically designed not to cover anything. It looked like something that one of those modern schoolgirls would wear. 可知作者認(rèn)為這個(gè)裙子不能蓋住任何東西，也就是認(rèn)為這個(gè)裙子太短了！故B正確。
2..A 推理題。根據(jù)文章第三段I imagined walking into school and my friends’ jaws (下巴) dropping. Guys would ask me out, and I would be happy.可知如果我穿了這樣的衣服，我的同學(xué)們可能驚訝的下巴都要掉了。說(shuō)明他們會(huì)非常震驚。故A正確。
3.B 推理題。根據(jù)Guys would ask me out, and I would be happy. I could buy it, no, — I should buy it. 可知如果我穿了這件衣服，男孩子胡請(qǐng)我出去，那樣我會(huì)很開(kāi)心，我能夠買(mǎi)！不是應(yīng)該把它買(mǎi)下來(lái)�？芍髡呦露Q心要把這件衣服買(mǎi)下來(lái)。故B正確。
4.C 推理題。根據(jù)文章倒數(shù)第3段The skirt did not change me. Though it fit well and might make me look good in the eyes of today’s world, it was not me. I am not a girl who wears cool clothes to fit in. 可知這件裙子并不能改變我的本質(zhì)，而且穿上去和我的整個(gè)風(fēng)格不搭配。這個(gè)改變也許是錯(cuò)誤的。故C正確。

When 7-year-old Warren Buffett said,“I will be the richest man one day,” his friends made fun of his “daydreaming”. But ever since then the little boy has set about learning how to make money by selling drinks, delivering newspapers and buying stocks. The American had already earned $9,000 (equal to $90,000 today) by the time he graduated from high school.
And this month the 78-year-old man, who earned his fortune by making a lot of sound investment in the stock market, took the place of Microsoft founder, Bill Gates, as the world’s richest man. Gates’ worth declined $1.5 billion to $55.5 billion in 33 days after the recent financial storm, according to Forbes Magazine.
Buffett, the only son of a stockbroker, was ready to think outside the box to develop his business from a very early age. At 8, he went to golf courses collecting and selling the used balls. At 11 when he sold soda pop door-to-door with a friend, the pair collected lids on streets to judge which flavor was the most popular.
As a paper boy during high school, Buffett delivered two competitor papers, so that even when customers canceled one of the subscriptions, he could still make a profit from the other. With his paper delivery savings, Buffett bought 162,000 square meters of farmland and collected rent. Young Buffett stepped into the stock market at 11 but earned only $5. The experience taught him one of the virtues in investing, patience.
After graduating from university, Buffett started his venture with stocks with his childhood earnings and money from friends. He researched the stocks and just bought those of solid companies that were undervalued and inexpensive at the time. By sticking to companies such as American Express and Coca-Cola, Buffett has become rich.
“Learning is important to Buffett’s success. He is a learning machine who can spend his entire day reading. He keeps learning from books, street smarts and investigation, from both success and failure. In this way, he over-achieved his aptitude (能力).” said Charlie Munger, his longtime business partner.
16. The passage is mainly about ___________.
A. why Buffett took the place of Bill Gates as the world’s richest man
B. what effect Buffett’s childhood experiences had on his success
C. how Buffett earned his fortune and achieved his aptitude
D. what Buffett dreamt about when he was a child
17. Which of the following is true about Buffett?
A. His worth is more than $ 55.5 billion now.
B. He is next to Bill Gates in wealth at the present time.
C He achieved great success on stepping into the stock market.
D He bought 162,000 square meters of farmland by selling soda pop.
18. How did Buffett behave at the stock market?
A. He often prefers some inexpensive stocks.
B. He will buy the stock whose price is lower than its value.
C. He always borrows money from his friends to buy stocks.
D. He will sell the stock if its price doesn’t go up.
19. Which is the main factor that determines Buffett’s success?
A. His education. B. His family background.
C. His desire to learn. D. His cooperation with his partner.
20. What can we infer from the passage?
A. Buffett is an immediate success in the stock market.
B. Buffett and Gates are business partners.
C. His father helped him a lot in his business.
D. Buffett has a good sense of business.

It is three in the morning on a Tuesday, and I’m walking toward table eighteen, the one I call home. I pass the waiters, give a brief nod to the 【小題1】 and take my seat. I 【小題2】 the “usual,” water and peanut butter pie. Yes, I’m at an all-night diner.
I start to take out my books, 【小題3】 full well that I will be 【小題4】 on the same page of Socrates that I’ve been on for the better part of the semester. Of course, it’s 【小題5】 —for my group that is. I wait for the empty chairs around me to be 【小題6】 .
Just as the Muzak songs start to repeat themselves, Shana and Jenny walk in. I am 【小題7】 with the usual big hugs and smiles. 【小題8】 , the diner stops being a twenty-for-hour restaurant with bad service and becomes my place—my home 【小題9】 the prisonlike dorm room. For the next couple of hours, we will joke about people we know, talk about books, reflect on the meaning of life, quote movies and 【小題10】 new private jokes. Table number eighteen is our 【小題11】 home.
During my senior year of college, I started going to the diner for a temporary escape from a dorm room that felt like it was closing in on me. Not to 【小題12】 the phones, the stereo and the computer. How could anyone seriously 【小題13】 to have good study habits? Some friends of mine told me about the place; they went there to study, and they really liked it.
So I tried it. It felt remarkably freeing. I start going there every night (except weekends, of course), and, believe me it was not because the pies were 【小題14】 great either. Maybe it would force me to open my books and my 【小題15】 would improve. Right? Well….
But that’s not the 【小題16】 . I mean, anyone who has gone to college knows that it’s not only about forcing yourself to wake up at 7:45 A.M. (after you had gone to sleep two hours earlier) to listen to a professor spoon-feeding you information 【小題17】 the significance of the Battle of Hastings. It is 【小題18】 about finding a little haven where you can create what will be the most important thing in your life—yourself. At a school of thirty-five thousand people, I found a small place that was as 【小題19】 to me as my Social Security number.
Through laughter, tears, learning, growing and the 【小題20】 free ice cream, we found a sanctuary. A place where we could be ourselves.

As I sit at home thinking about my upcoming adventure and the things I need to bring, it makes me even more excited to begin my travel. I will be making my way around the world.
The first places on the list are Andalusia and Africa in the book The Alchemist. I will need to pack a lot of things and make sure I have enough money to provide myself with food and enough to drink. The Sahara desert is always hot and requires plenty of water.
Next I will head to Mexico in the book Born to Run, where I will meet the Tarahumara Indian tribe(部落). I will need to get into shape and do some jogging(慢跑) if I want to keep up with them. I will have to pack my running shoes, though, because the Tarahumarans have mastered the art of running on the tough land.
After Mexico, my journey takes me to the Egyptian desert in the novelThe Paris Vendetta. There I hope to help uncover an ancient conspiracy (陰謀) that goes back centuries. Just like my trip to Andalusia, I will have to make sure I have plenty of water. Packing the Camelbak products seems like the best idea, so I will have enough on hand at all times. I expect this adventure to be quite interesting, and I am very excited about it.
Lastly, I will make my way back to America in the book Shattered: Struck Down, But Not Destroyed. This makes me feel excited because like the main character in the book, I also wanted to become a professional athlete when I was younger. For this trip, I will go with an open mind and hopefully meet some friends along the way.
I am ready to embark on my adventure of traveling, and I cannot wait any longer!
【小題1】How will the author go on adventure?
| A．By carrying a lot of equipment. |
| B．By reading novels. |
| C．By daydreaming. |
| D．By marking out routes. |
| A．come from India | B．a(chǎn)re good at running |

Mr. and Mrs. Wu were fed up with their neighbor. He was always borrowing things from them.
“It’s not right.” Mr. Wu said to his wife one evening. “At some time or another that man has borrowed nearly everything we have. Almost every day he comes over to borrow something.”
“You are quite right,” his wife replied, “and most of the things he’s never returned.”
“What I want to know,” her husband said, “is why he can’t buy the things he needs like everyone else.”
“Because people like us are foolish enough to lend him what he needs.” she replied. “As long as we are willing to lend, he’ll keep on borrowing.”
“Then we’ll never lend him anything again.” Mr. Wu said. “The next time he asks to borrow something, I’ll say no.”
“We must have a good reason for saying no,” his wire said, “and we must always try to be polite to him. We don’t want to make an enemy of the man.”
It was not long before their decision not to lend their neighbor anything ever again was put to the test.
The next morning there was a knock on the door.
Mr. Wu went to answer it.
Their neighbor was standing there. Mr. Wu knew he was going to ask to borrow something, and was ready to refuse him politely.
“Good morning,” their neighbor said, “I’m sorry to trouble you, but I wonder if I could borrow your garden scissors.”
“I’m sorry,” Mr. Wu said, “but I’m afraid my wife and I will be using them today. We’ll be spending all day working in the garden.”
“Oh, ! see.” the neighbor said, “In that case, may I borrow your golf clubs? You won’t be needing them if you are working in the garden all day, will you?”
【小題1】What did the neighbor do with most of the things he had borrowed?
| A．He hid them. |
| B．He never returned them. |
| C．He lent them to others. |
| D．He broke them. |
| A．not to lend anything more |
| B．to be impolite to him in order to show their dislike |
