According to Andrew, it never would have happened if he had not had a flat tire on Highway 10 last night at about 7:30. He was on his way to attend a three-day sales meeting when he had the flat. tyre. Unfortunately, he did not have a spare, so he pushed the car off the road, locked it up, and managed to thumb a ride back to Pine Grove. It was after eleven o'clock when he finally got home, and it was then that his real problems started. When Andrew left home at about 5:30, he had told his wife not to expect him back until Thursday or Friday. Knowing that his wife was nervous about staying in the house alone at night, Andrew took the precaution of checking all the windows in the house to be sure they were locked, so that he could report to his wife that the house was secure. He convinced his wife that the house was burglar-proof, and that she would be perfectly safe, providing she bolted (闩上)the front door as soon as he drove away. Andrew's only thought as he made his way in the dark to his front door was how surprised his wife was going to be to see him, since he was not supposed to be back until Thursday or Friday. He had forgotten about the bolt on the front door. When he turned his key in the lock and the door wouldn't budge, he remembered the bolt. And he remembered that he had carefully locked all of the windows. Although Andrew didn't know it at the time, a next-door neighbor had seen him approaching the house and had watched him go up the steps to the front door. In the dark, it was impossible for the neighbor to recognize Andrew, and, besides, the neighbor knew that Andrew had gone out-of-town for a three-day meeting. As a matter of fact, Andrew had asked the neighbor to keep an eye on the house while he was gone. Finding that he couldn't get in, Andrew began pounding(砰砰地敲) on the front door to get his wife to open the door. According to Andrew, however, his wife is a very sound sleeper, and he knew it was going to be hard to wake her up. In the meantime, because of all the noise he had been making, the neighbor was convinced that somebody was trying to break into the house; so she called the police. When we talked to Andrew at the country jail this morning, he said that he still didn't understand how the police managed to circle the house without his seeing them. He stated that he had decided the only way to get in was to break one of the dining room windows, and that he was about, to hurl his briefcase into the window to break it when two of the officers grabbed him from behind. Andrew could not make the officers believe that he lived there; so they took him off to jail. Apparently, he did succeed in convincing them that they ought to wake up the woman in the house to check his story. But there was no answer when they knocked at the door. He tried to explain to them that his wife was a very sound sleeper, but they concluded there was nobody in the house. 1.As Andrew had a flat tyre on the way, he . A.had to take another car to attend the meeting B.rode on a bike to attend the meating C.asked for a lift to go back home D.borrowed a car to go back home 2.When Andrew was approaching the house . A.he was sure he would pleasently surprise his wife B.he was deep in thought C.he was sure that his neighbor would help him D.he was worried about how to wake his wife up 3.The underlined word “budge” in Paragraph 3 probably means . A.move slightly B.lock tightly C.knock lightly D.close tightly 4.Why did the police officers take Andrew off to jail? A.It was too late for them to contact Andrew’s wife. B.Andrew did not explain clearly why he broke into the house. C.They thought it unnecessary to check Andrew’s story. D.they concluded that Andrew’s story was a complete invention.

When you close your eyes and try to think of the shape of your own body, what you imagine (or rather, what you feel) is quite different from what you see when you open your eyes and look in the mirror. The image you feel is much vaguer(模糊的) than the one you see. And if you lie still, it is quite hard to imagine yourself as having any particular size or shape. When you move, when you feel the weight of your arms and legs and the natural resistance of the objects around you, the “felt” image of yourself starts to become clearer. It is almost as if it were created by your own actions and the feelings they cause. The image you create for yourself has rather strange proportions(部分); certain parts feel much larger than they look. If you get a hole in one of your teeth, it feels enormous; you are often surprised by how small it looks when you inspect it in the mirror. Although the “felt” image may not have the shape you see in the mirror, it is much more important. It is the image through which you recognize your physical existence in the world. In spite of its strange proportions, it is all one piece, and since it has a consistent(前后一致的) right and left and atop and bottom, it allows you to locate new feelings when they occur. It allows you to find your nose in the dark and point to a pain. If the felt image is damaged for any reason—if it is cut in half or lost as it often is after certain strokes (中风)which wipe out recognition of one entire side –these tasks become almost impossible. What is more, it becomes hard to make sense of one’s own visual appearance. If one half of the “felt” image is wiped out or injured, the patient stops recognizing the affected part of his body. It is hard for him to find the location of feelings on that side, and, although he feels the doctor’s touch, he locates it as being on the undamaged side. 1.According to the passage the “felt” image the mirror image. A.is precisely the same as B.is as clear as C.often differens from D.is always much smaller than 2.Which the following staterants is NOT true? A.The felt Image is much more important because it helps you locate new feelings. B.When you are in bed with your eyes closed, it is not easy to imagine your image. C.When you move, the “felt” image of yourself starts to become clearer. D.The “felt” image is not so important as the mirror image. 3.If a man loses the ability to recognize his right side, . A.he can’t locate the doctor’s touch on his left side B.he can’t locate the doctor’s touch on his right side C.he loses his sense of touch on the left side D.he loses feeling on both sides 4.What is this passage mainly about? A.Stroke victims’ “felt” images B.Stroke victims’ mirror images. C.The importance of “felt” images D.The importance of mirror images.

American parents usually think that their child should not have more pocket money than the children with whom he regularly connects, even if they are wealthier.But neither are children expected to compare with the richer if a large family, heavy responsibilities, or other conditions make it necessary to give a child less spending money than is customary (惯例的)in the neighborhood. Whatever the pocket money is, its entire use is not controlled by the parents, because a child learns to use money correctly only through dealing with it himself.If a seven-year-old child gets a quarter as a week pocket money and is made to put it all in his piggy bank to save it up, he gets no idea what the real use for the money is.He gets the shiny coins and they soon disappear. The idea of a bank account is too early for so small a child, although he can be made to understand and enjoy saving his coins—not all of them, only a part of what he receives—to buy something he especially wants.By the time he is eight he is old enough to take part in the opening of his own savings account, parents may take him to the bank, open a savings account for him and encourage him to put a certain quantity or any checks he receives as gifts into the bank and watch his bank savings grow as entry by entry(存入) is made. He will be saving, earning, and spending suitable quantities all along in order to learn how to manage money and to keep him in a favorable position with his friend.The boy who can't join his fellows in a sweet shop once in a while, because he has to save every cent he gets or earns for some big unknown project his parents have chosen for him, is a sorry child. 1.Choose the best exolaration for the underlined part in the second paragraph. A.It is a kind of bank run by children. B.It is a contralre in the shape of a pig for saving coins. C.It is a certain place in which pigs are raise. D.It is a bank whose building looks like a pig 2.Which of the following statements is TRUE? A.Most of the rich people in America give children much pocket money. B.American children usually have their bank accounts until they are eight. C.American parents seldom care for their children's spending money. D.American children begin to learn how to manage money when very young. 3.Suppose an 8-year-old child receives 10 dollars as his birthday gift, he may probably ____. A.spend the money on the things he wants B.compare the gift with that of his friend C.have most of it saved in the bank D.put all the money in his piggy bank 4.Why does the writer think the boy is a sorry one if he saves every cent he gets or earns? A.Because he can not manage his money and is kept himself in an unfavorable position B.Because he can not join the fellows in a sweet shop once in a while C.Because he can not learn the use of money through spending it himself D.Because he can not have any other choice but save, earn of spend money
