  Think back to a time in your life when you tried something new.

  When I was a teenager, I volunteered to pass out water at a local race. I was so excited to see all the different runners, they passed by and quickly took a cup of water. Some ran past, some walked past and a few wheeled past.

  I saw so many types of people doing it. I thought maybe I could do it too! The next year I decided to run for the race, but I had a little running practice. I just wanted to finish.

  On the day of the race, it was terribly hot. After running for about 5 miles, I was thinking, “ Why did I do this?” And at one moment, I said to myself, “I am never doing this again!”

  That first 10 km race was quite an experience. I ran slowly, I walked, I ran slowly and walked. At times , I didn’t know I could finish.

  Near the end, a 70-year-old man ran past me, very fast, and I felt a little shamed that I was more than 50 years younger than he and I couldn’t even keep up with him. But then I realized something. He was running his race and I was running mine. How often in life do we compare ourselves with others when we really shouldn’t ? I decided that I would not give up on running races, and that one day I would be one of those 70-year-old men who were still running.

  As I crossed the finishing line, I was proud of myself. I didn’t regret ***後悔*** having such an experience.

  A

  The friendship between humans and dogs possibly began 14,000 years ago. Here are four examples of “a dog’s life” in the human world today.

  Treated like a queen

  Tiffy is one of these dogs. Her owner, Nancy, treats her like a queen. She prepares Tiffy’s meals of meat, fish, chicken and different kinds of fresh vegetables. Tiffy also eats yoghurt and biscuits after dinner. Nancy’s husband has a very good job and her two sons are away at university, so she has the time and money to treat Tiffy very well, and she really enjoys doing it. “I want to give her the healthiest, most wonderful life as long as possible.” she says.

  Food sniffer dogs***嗅探犬***

  Food sniffer dogs work at international airports in the US. Their job is to smell and find illegal***不合法的*** fruits, vegetables and other foods in bags and mail. These foods sometimes bring something which could be dangerous for plants and animals. The dog sits down next to anything if it smells suspicious***可疑的***. The dog’s human partner then checks for illegal foods. Sniffer dogs are friendly and cute. More importantly, these dogs have an astonishing nose for food. They can find food in bags 84% of the time.

  Animal carers

  Jessie is a whippet***小靈狗*** that visits very sick children in hospital. She shows them her love and when they feel sad, Jessie makes them happy. Jessie helps patients to stay strong during their time in hospital.

  There are many different kinds of animals that help people. We train “service dogs” to help people with physical disabilities. The best known service dogs are guides for the blind. But they can also learn to open and close doors, turn lights on and off, pick up objects from the floors and even pull wheelchairs.

  Doggie detectives***偵探犬***

  Search-and-rescue***SAR*** dogs use their amazing noses to find people. They can smell small clues***線索*** that people leave wherever they go. These include bacteria***細菌***, small pieces of clothing and hairs. They may find missing hikers and search through rubble***碎石*** after earthquakes and other disasters.

  31. What food does Tiffy eat?

  A. Dog food from shops. B. Anything except vegetables.

  C. Only yoghurt and biscuits. D. The meals its owner prepares.

  32. Which kind of dogs is the most useful when a child is lost?

  C. Whippet dogs. D. SAR dogs.

  33. What’s the purpose of the passage?

  B. To tell the readers the importance of protecting animals.

  C. To show the special relationships between dogs and humans.

  D. To share with the readers the pleasure of keeping dogs as pets.

  It was a sunny and enjoyable day. Everyone in the railway station was waiting for the train to arrive.

  A group of friends made a loud noise to welcome the train as it moved into the station. They ran to get their seats before anyone else entered the train.

  The empty seats were filled and the train whistled to move. An old man with a young boy aged around 15 had their seats just next to the friends’ group. The young boy was so surprised to see everything.

  He cheered, “Dad, the train is moving and the things are moving backward.” His father smiled and nodded his head.

  As the train started moving fast, the young boy again screamed, “Dad, the trees are green in color and run backward very fast.” His father said, “Yes, dear.” and smiled.

  Just like a kid, he was watching everything with great interest.

  The group was watching all the activities of the boy and asked the boy’s father, “Is your son having any problems? Why is he behaving so differently?”

  “His son is mad, I think,” a friend from the group made fun of him and shouted.

  The father of the young boy, with patience, replied to the friends group, “My son was born blind. Only a few days ago he had an operation on his eyes. He is seeing different things in his life for the first time.”

  The young friends became very quiet.

  The film Alice Through the Looking Glass is on. Millions of people go to cinemas to see it. The little girl Alice, with long hair of gold, is alive in people’s mind again after the film Alice in Wonderland was shown in 2010.

  These two popular films were adapted***改編*** from the novels Alice’s Adventures on Wonderland and Through the Looking Class. Both of them were written by Lewis Carroll, a famous English writer, who himself was as interesting as his books.

  Lewis Carroll was a math teacher and writer. In 1856, he met Henry Liddell and his three lovely daughters. His friendship with the family became an important part of his life over the following years. He liked the girls very much, especially the youngest one, Alice Liddell. He often told stories to make them happy. One day he took the girls to a boat trip. To make the time more enjoyable, he began a story about the adventure of a little girl named Alice in Wonderland. Many other strange characters such as the Mouse, the March Hare, the Cheshire Cat and the Queen of Hearts were brought to this wonderful world, too.

  Alice Liddell loved the story and she asked Carroll to write it down for her. After Carroll finished the book Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, he gave it to the girl as a Christmas present. When the book was published in 1865, it was a great success, and soon was famous around the world.

  37. The film Alice in Wonderland and Alice Through the Looking Glass were from __________.

  A. Henry Liddell’s adventure B. two novels by Lewis Carroll

  C. three girls’ trip experience D. Lewis Carroll’s life story

  38. are not the characters in the story Alice in Wonderland.

  A. Alice Liddell and her sisters B. The Queen and Alice

  C. The Mouse and the March Hare D. The Cheshire Cat and the Mouse

  39. Lewis Carroll wrote down the story he told on the boat trip because __________.

  A. he wanted to publish it and made money

  B. he thought it was a very interesting story

  C. Alice loved the story and asked him to do so

  D. Alice thought others also wanted to read the story

  40. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?

  A. Carroll finished the book and gave it to Alice.

  Premier Li Keqiang has put The National Reading in his government work report to encourage a love of reading in all Chinese people.

  However,I’m sorry to say that plenty of Chinese don’t read a lot. Some people just don’t like reading at all. They even think reading is useless for them. And some complain that they are so busy with different activities that it’s impossible for them to have time for reading.

  In my opinion, reading is very important in our lives. First, it is a good way to improve our reading and writing skills. Second, reading opens up our eyes to the outside world and increase our knowledge.

  Therefore, I plan to continue reading whenever I’m free. What’s more, I’ll encourage my friends to read more. Let’s enjoy ourselves in reading!

  One day I went to a store with a list. “Excuse me,” I said. A lady with glasses looked up, saying, “I’m Miss Bee. Come closer and let me look at you. I want to be able to describe you to the police if something is missing from the store.”

  “I’m only a little girl, not a thief ***小偷***!” I was surprised.

  “But I think you’re potential ***有可能的*** ,” she said.

  “I need these,” I said, holding up my list.

  “So what? I am not a person who works for you. Go to get them.” she said.

  The store was a puzzle to me. It took me two hours to find everything on the list. “That packet of beans is only 29 cents, but you asked me for 35 cents. ” I corrected her. She didn’t seem unhappy, just looked at me over her glasses.

But she laughed, “Well, I believe my job is to teach every child I meet life lessons to help them. When you get older, you’ll be glad our paths crossed!” Glad I met Miss Bee? Ha! It was absurd.

  Until one day my daughter said, “ Could you finish my math problems for me?” “How will you ever learn to do it yourself if I do it for you?” I said.

  Life comes in a package. This package includes happiness and sadness, failure and success, hope and despair. Life is a learning process. Experiences in life teach us new lessons and make us a better person. With each passing day we learn to deal with various situations.

  Love plays a main role in our life. Love makes you feel wanted. Without love a person could become cruel. In the early stage of our life, our parents are the ones who show us with love and care. They teach us about what is right and wrong, good and bad. But we don’t always care about it. It is only after marriage and having kids that a person understands others’ feelings.

  Happiness can bring people a peaceful mind. No mind is happy without peace. Sadness is the cause of the death of a loved one or the failure. But all of these things will pass away.

  Failure is the path to success. It helps us to touch the sky, teaches us to survive and shows us a specific way. Success brings in money, pride and self-respect.

  Hope is what keeps life going. Parents always hope their children will do well. Hope makes us dream. Hope builds in patience. Life teaches us not to despair even in the darkest hour, because after every night there is a day.

  Life teaches us not to regret over yesterday, for it has passed and is out of our control. Tomorrow is unknown, for it could either be bright or dark. So the only choice is to work hard today, so that we will enjoy a better tomorrow.

  *** ***54. We usually have to accept _______ if we want to be successful.

  A. love B. failure C. sadness D. hope

  *** ***55. In which section can readers probably read the passage?

  A. Business. B. Travel. C. Lifestyles. D. Education.

  *** ***56. What does the word “despair” mean in Chinese?

  A. 頹廢 B. 遺憾 C. 悲傷 D. 絕望

  *** ***57. What’s the meaning of the last sentence of the whole passage?

  A.When choosing between “today” and “tomorrow”, you’d better enjoy tomorrow.

  B. If you work hard today, you’ll have a better life in the future.

  C. What you can only choose is to work hard today rather than tomorrow.

  D. The only choice you make is that you should enjoy a better tomorrow.

  *** ***58. What’s the purpose of the passage?

  A. To encourage people to love each other.

  B. To tell people how to deal with happiness and sadness.

  C. To give readers some information about life.
