An old lady was walking with her basket down the middle of a street in Petrograd to the great confusion of the traffic and with no small danger to herself. It was pointed out to her that the pavement was the place for pedestrians, but she replied: “I’m going to walk where I like. We’ve got liberty now.” It did not occur to the dear old lady that if liberty entitled(授權)the pedestrian to walk down the middle of the road, then the end of such liberty would be universal chaos. Everybody would be getting in everybody else’s way and nobody would get anywhere. Individual liberty would have become social chaos.
There is a danger of the world getting liberty-drunk in these days like the old lady, and it is just as well to remind ourselves of what the rule of the road means .It means that in order that the liberties of all may be preserved, the liberties of everybody must be limited. When the policeman steps into the middle of the road and puts out his hand, he is the symbol not of tyranny(暴政), but of liberty.
Liberty is not a personal affair only, but a social contract(契約). In matters which do not touch anybody else’s liberty, of course, I may be as free as 1 like. If I go down the street dressed strangely, who shall say me no? We have a whole kingdom in which we rule alone and can do what we choose. But directly we step out of that kingdom, our personal liberty of action becomes qualified by other people’s liberty.
We all tend to forget this. A reasonable consideration for the rights or feelings of others is the base of social conduct.
1.What does the first paragraph serve as?
A. A background. B. An introduction. C. A comment. D. An explanation.
2.Which is an example of getting liberty-drunk?
A. Park anywhere you like. B. Walk along the pavement.
C. Wear whatever you like. D. Make loud noises in the wild.
3.What might the author have stated his “rule of the road” (Paragraph 2) as?
A. Follow the orders of policemen. B. Do what you like in private.
C. Never walk in the middle of the road. D. Do not behave inconsiderately in public.
4.What does the underlined word “qualified” (Paragraph 3) mean?
A. Limited. B. Ruined. C. Improved. D. Educated.

Inside the Rain Room
The Rain Room has arrived and local art lovers are taking notice. Is it worth the wait? Yes, I assure you it is. Once inside, visitors find a long, dark room with a high ceiling. A single bright light shines through heavy rain falling around visitors. The mist. The damp air. The noise. It feels like a mighty storm is pouring down. But the storm is inside. And visitors aren’t getting wet. Instead, visitors wander in awe, admiring the rain and the artists who created it.
The Rain Room was created to highlight the connection between humans, nature and technology. With a tracking system that senses movement and stops the rain wherever visitors move, it does just that.

“Don’t be afraid to give your best to what seemingly are small jobs. Every time you conquer one it makes you much stronger. If you do little jobs well, the big ones will tend to take care of themselves,” said Dale Carnegie.
Sometimes, doing your best work or trying your hardest at something is difficult. It may have something to do with trying to do something new for the first time, like a new sport or activity at school. It may have something to do with doing homework for a subject that is not your favorite or is not your best.
As Hunter S. Thompson once said, “Anything worth doing is worth doing right.” And as Albert Einstein added, “We have to do the best we can. This is our sacred human responsibility.”
Developing the habit of trying your hardest and doing your best is something that will help you succeed throughout your life. If you have looked at some quotes related to trying your hardest, you will see that many of them come from people who have made a big difference in the world. This is not a coincidence. It was not only their cleverness that helped them stand out and change the world, but their ability to try their hardest and do their best in whatever they were doing. If you can develop this same habit---to do your best in any situation, it will be a great benefit to your family, career, school and community.
As Bob Cousy put it, “Do your best when no one is looking. If you do that, then you can be successful at anything you put your mind to.” The choice is yours.
1.Why does the author use the quote of Dale Carnegie in Paragraph 1?
A. To describe a scene. B. To introduce a topic.
C. To draw a conclusion. D. To support an argument.
2.According to the passage, in which case is it difficult to try your hardest?
A. When you are doing something that you are familiar with.
B. When you are doing something that you are good at.
C. When you are doing something that you feel bored with.
D. When you are doing something that you like very much.
3.Why does the author suggest we develop the habit of trying our hardest?
A. To let us make a big difference in the world.
B. To help us achieve success all through our life.
C. To make us more skillful in our work.
D. To make it possible for us to benefit the whole world.
4.What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To inform. B. To advertise.
C. To introduce. D. To persuade.
