The boy looked at me 11. then he took another piece of my chocolate. I could hardly 12it. Still I didn’t want to start an argument. When he took a 13piece , I felt more 14than annoyed.

One Canada, Two Languages Canada is one of the few nations in the world to have two official languages: English and French. There are 10 provinces in the country but only one of these—Quebec is known as “French Canada”. This is because it was founded by French explorers while British adventurers discovered the rest. Canada left the British empire(帝国) in 1867 to become an independent country and English and French have been recognized as the official languages ever since. Most people speak English as their first language and the two national television networks broadcast in English throughout the country. Apart from in Quebec and a few places on the east coast, French television is very rare. The same goes for traffic signs and menus, for example, outside of Quebec, there are only a few places where you’ll see traffic signs in French. In restaurants, it’s almost impossible to find French on the menu unless you are in the heartland (中心地带) of French Canada. However, all products sold in Canada must, by law, have labels (标签) and instructions in both languages. In Canada’s English speaking provinces, official bilingualism (双语) means that students can choose to complete a special French language course. Under this program, they are taught most of their subjects in French. If a student begins the course in kindergarten (幼儿园) or Grade One, it is likely that all their lessons will be in French. However, if they start at junior high school, 25 percent of the teaching will continue to be in English. 1.How many provinces are there in Canada? A. Ten. B. Nine. C. Eleven. D. Two. 2.Which country controlled Canada before its independence? A. France. B. Britain. C. America. D. Germany 3.Where can you watch French television programs? A. Only in Quebec. B. In Quebec and a few other places. C. From the two national television networks. D. All over Canada 4.What do we know about the education in Canada? A. In English speaking provinces only English courses are offered. B. If you choose a special French language course, most of the subjects are taught in French. C. The courses in primary school are all taught in English. D. Most of the courses in junior high schools are taught in English.

It has always been said that women are not good drivers, because they simply don't have very good driving ability. On the other hand, most car accidents happen to men; very few happen to women. From this, we can see that women are much more careful while driving. Another very interesting fact that we should point out is that in the past, women preferred to let their husbands be the only driver in the family rather than have a driving license. Somehow they were prevented from making this step in their lives, but nowadays there are many women that want to pass their driving tests from an early age. However, we have to admit that men are more skillful drivers than women, but this does not mean that a woman cannot become a good driver by accumulating (积累) experience. So more and more teenagers and women around the age of thirty now want to pass their driving tests. While taking their driving lessons, they also have a number of special lessons with their parents or somebody in the family that has a driving license, this is just to improve their driving abilities and help them to pass the tests more easily. To conclude, we can say that women are not such bad drivers. They just need more experience than men in order to be able to drive well. And on the other hand, there are a number of women that show better driving skills than the men around them. 1.Compared with the past, nowadays many women___. A. prefer to have a driving license B. have more accidents while driving C. are somehow prevented from driving D. are the only driver in the family 2.What advantage do women have over men in driving? A. They have more skills. B. They are much more careful C. They know more traffic rules D. They have more driving experience 3.What can we infer from the passage? A. Teenage girls cannot take driving tests. B. Men didn't allow women to drive in the past. C. With enough experience, women can become good drivers. D. Women can easily pass their tests by taking driving lessons. 4.The passage mainly talks about___. A. women and their driving ability. B. men and their driving ability. C. why men are better drivers than women. D. why more women like to have a driving license

I made a pledge (发誓) to myself on the way down to the vacation beach cottage. For two weeks I would try to be a loving husband and father. Totally loving . No ifs, ands or buts. The idea had come to me as I listened to a talk on my car radio. The speaker was quoting (引用) a Biblical (圣经的) passage about husbands being thoughtful（体贴的） of their wives. Then he went on to say," Love is an act of will. A person can choose to love." To myself, I had to admit that I had been a selfish husband. Well , for two weeks that would change. And it did. Right from the moment I kissed Evelyn at the door and said," That new yellow sweater looks great on you." "Oh, Tom, you noticed," she said, surprised and pleased, maybe a little puzzled. After the long drive, I wanted to sit and read. Evelyn suggested a walk on the beach. I started to refuse, but then I thought, "Evelyn's been alone here with the kids all the week and now she wants to stay with me. " We walked on the beach while the children flew their kites. So it went. Two weeks of not calling the Wall Street firm where I am a director; a visit to the shell museum though I usually hate museums. Relaxed and happy, that's how the whole vacation passed, I made a new pledge to keep on remembering to choose love. There was one thing that went wrong with my experiment, however. Evelyn and I still laugh about it today. Last night at our cottage, preparing for bed, Evelyn stared at me with the saddest expression. “What’s the matter?” I asked her. “ Tom ,” se said in a voice filled with distress, “ do you know something I don’t?” "What do you mean?" "Well...that checkup(体检) I had several weeks ago...our doctor...did he tell you something about me? Tom , you've been so good to me... am I dying?" It took a moment for it all to sink in. Then I burst out laughing. "No, honey," I said, wrapping her in my arms. "You're not dying; I'm just staring to live." 1.In the first paragraph, "No ifs, ands or buts" probably means___. A. unnecessarily B. unexpectedly C. impossibly D. unconditionally 2.From the story we may infer that Tom went to the beach cottage___. A. with his family B. with Evelyn C. alone D. with his children 3.During the two weeks on the beach, Tom showed more love to his wife because___. A. she looked lovely in her new clothes B. he had made a lot of money in Wall Street C. he was determined to be a good husband D. she was seriously ill 4.The underlined words "one thing" in the passage refer to the fact that___. A. he praised her sweater, which puzzled her B. she insisted on visiting a museum, which he hated C. he knew something about her illness but didn't tell her D. he was so good to her that she thought she must be dying 5.By saying "I'm just starting to live", Tom means that___. A. he is just beginning to understand the real meaning of life B. he is just beginning to enjoy his life as a loving husband C. he lived an unhappy life before and is now starting to change D. he is beginning to feel regretful for what he did to his wife
