    Charles Dickens was born in Portsmouth on 7th February, 1812. His father, John Dickens, was a clerk in the Navy. In 1814 the Dickens family moved to London and two years later to Chatham in Kent. Charles attended a private school for a few years there until the family moved back to London in1822.

Two years later Charles’s father was sent to a debtors’ prison for not paying his bills. Charles was 12 years old at the time. The family had no money, so he had to leave school and get a job in a factory that made shoe polish. The conditions there were very bad and the workers were very poor. It was a completely different world from one Charles knew and he was often sad and lonely.

His father managed to leave the prison and Charles returned to school, but this experience had a great effect on him. He never forgot it and described it in several of his novels.

Great Expectations is usually described as a bildungsroman, a type of novel that was popular in Victorian times. Bildungsroman is a German word used for novels that show the psychological and moral development of the main character as he or she grows up. However, Great Expectations, like most of Charles Dickens’s novels, can not be so easily defined. It is also a story about love and passion, a mystery story and a story that comments on the society of the time.

Great Expectations is set on the marshes(湿地) of Kent and in London in the early to mid-1800s. The main character is a poor orphan boy called Pip, who lives with his old sister and her husband, Joe. One day he meets and falls in love with a rich girl called Estella. She laughs at him because he is a poor village boy and he starts to become unhappy with his life. A few years later he learns that he has a secret benefactor(捐助人), who wants him to live the life of a gentleman. Now that he is rich, he thinks that he has a chance of winning Estella’s love. He leaves his village and goes to live London, where he makes new friends. He starts to feel ashamed of his home and his family, particularly Joe, who he treats unkindly. However, after many adventures he is finally able to recognize his mistakes.

Charles Dickens originally wrote a sad ending for Great Expectations but he decided to change it to a happier one because of a suggestion from one of his friends. Most books today contain the new ending but there are some that also include the original one.

1.According to the passage, which of the following is Wrong about Dickens?

A.Financial difficulties forced the Dickens family to move to London.

B.He was left to take care of himself at 12 when his father was put into a debtor’s prison.

C.He had a little primary education and lived a sad and painful life.

D.Great Expectations was based on much of Dickens’ personal experience.

2.What does the underlined word “Bildungsroman” in paragraph 4 mean?

A.a process of maturation(成熟) and self-discovery.

B.a process of becoming independent.

C.a process of physical and mental development.

D.a change from selfishness to love and passion.

3.What will Pip’s relationship with Joe be possibly like at the end of the story?

A.Pip will become more ashamed of his family and less kind to Joe.

B.Pip will be grateful to Joe and reward him.

C.Pip will be kind and friendly to Joe.

D.Pip will be cold and distant with Joe.

4.Pip realizes what is the most important thing in life at the end of the story?

A.wealth and social status.

B.love and loyalty.

C.lifelong ambition and successful careers.

D.great expectations and wildest dreams.

    Many kids help out around the house with chores such as emptying the dishwasher, putting laundry away, and taking out the trash. In exchange, some kids get allowances or other rewards such as extra computer time.

But some people do not think that kids should get rewards for doing chores. Susie Walton, a parenting educator and family coach, believes that by rewarding kids, parents are sending a message that work isn’t worth doing unless you get something in return. ’’Running any kind of household is a team effort, Susie said. "A home is a living space for everyone in the family. It’s important for kids to see that we all have responsibilities in the house, and that families decide together how they want their home to look, and how they are going to keep it looking like everyone wants it to look.”

Other people believe that getting a cash allowance or other rewards motivates kids to do chores, and it also teaches them real world lessons about how we need to work to earn money. There are also new applications that give kids points and digital gifts that can be redeemed (兑取) either online or in the real world. With the ChoreMonster app, kids earn digital points by completing chores that they can turn in for real-life rewards such as extra Xbox time or a trip to the mall. “Our goal is to encourage kids to earn rewards,’’ says Chris Bergman, founder of ChoreMonster. “Kids need positive reinforcement to help motivate them."

What do you think? Should kids be rewarded for doing chores? Or should kids help out around their homes without getting anything in return?

    It was the summer of 1965. DeLuca, then 17, visited Peter Buck, a family friend. Buck asked DeLuca about his plans for the future. “I’m going to collegebut I need a way to pay for it” DeLuca recalls saying, “Buck said ‘You should open a sandwich shop.’”

That afternoon, they agreed to be partners. And they set a goal: to open 32 stores in ten years. After doing some research, Buck wrote a check for $1,000. DeLuca rented a storefront (店面) in Connecticut, and when they couldn't cover their start­up costsBuck kicked in another $1,000.

But business didn't go smoothly as they expected. DeLuca says, “After six monthswe were doing poorly, but we didn't know how badly, because we didn't have any financial controls.” All he and Buck knew was that their sales were lower than their costs.

DeLuca was managing the store and going to the University of Bridgeport at the same time. Buck was working at his day job as a nuclear physicist in New York. They'd meet Monday evenings and brainstorm ideas for keeping the business running. “We convinced ourselves to open a second store. We figured we could tell the public. ‘We are so successfulwe are opening a second store.’” And they did—in the spring of 1966. Still, it was a lot of learning by trial and error.

But the partners' learn­as­you­go approach turned out to be their greatest strength. Every Friday, DeLuca would drive around and hand-deliver the checks to pay their suppliers. “It probably took me two and a half hours and it wasn't necessary, but as a result, the suppliers got to know me very well, and the personal relationships established really helped out.” DeLuca says.

And having a goal was also important. “There are so many problems that can get you down. You just have to keep working toward your goal.” DeLuca adds.

DeLuca ended up founding Subway Sandwich, the multimillion­dollar restaurant chain.

1.DeLuca opened the first sandwich shop in order to____.

A.support his family

2.Which of the following is TRUE of Buck______

B.He was a professor of business administration.

C.He was studying at the University of Bridgeport.

D.He rented a storefront for DeLuca.

3.What can we learn about their first shop_______

A.It stood at an unfavorable place.

B.It lowered the prices to promote sales.

C.It made no profits due to poor management.

D.It lacked control over the quality of sandwiches.

4.What contributes most to their success according to the author_______

A.Learning by trial and error.

B.Making friends with suppliers.
