阅读理解     My father and I were very close. I loved pleasing him, and he was always proud of my
success. If I won a spelling contest at school, he was on top of the world. Later in life whenever I
got a promotion(提升), I"d call my father right away and he"d rush out to tell all his friends. In
1970, when I was named president of the Ford Motor Company, I don"t know which of us was
more excited.
     Like many native Italians, my parents were very open with their feelings and their loves not
only at home, but also in public. Most of my friends would never hug their fathers. But I hugged
and kissed my dad at every chance - nothing could have felt more natural.
     He was a curious man who was always trying new things. He was the first person in Allentown
to buy a motorcycle. Unfortunately, my father and his motorcycle didn"t get along too well. He f
ell off it so often that he got rid of it just a month after buying it. As a result, he never again
trusted any vehicle(车辆) with less than four wheels.
     Because of that motorcycle, I wasn"t allowed to have a bicycle when I was growing up.
Whenever I wanted to ride a bike, I had to borrow one from a friend. On the other hand, my
father let me drive a car as soon as I turned sixteen.1. When I won a contest at school, my father would _____.A. feel most happy over it
B. tell all his friends about it
C. get very surprised at it
D. hug and kiss me 2. Which of the following statements shows my father liked to know about new things?A. I wasn"t allowed to have a car when I was growing up.
B. He was the first person in town to buy a motorcycle.
C. He was always proud of my success in everything.
D. He was very open with his feelings and his love.3. My father trusted no vehicle with less than four wheels because _____.A. he did not like the way I borrowed bicycles from friends
B. he thought that cars were faster than motorcycles
C. he liked every new model made by my company
D. he once had trouble in riding his motorcycle4. Which of the following statements is wrong?A. It was quite natural for the author to kiss and hug his father.
B. When the author reached 16 he was allowed to drive a car.
C. Both of the author"s parents were not open with their feelings.
D. Anytime the author got a promotion, he would inform his father.

阅读理解     I just experienced a moment that turned my entire day around. I went to the cafeteria today
to buy my lunch. However, when I entered the line and was ready to take out money, I realized I
forgot to take the purse with me. I dug through different parts of my bag, looking for small
change. After a while, it became clear that, while I found most of the money I had, I was still
short of money to buy my lunch.
     I started looking around for people who may nicely lend me a little change. I thought about all
the time we passed people on the street and said that we didn"t have anything to share. Would
that happen to me? I was too hungry to worry about it. Someone would help. I looked for one of
my friends in the cafeteria, but it was too early for any of them to take their lunch yet.
     A very friendly woman appeared in line in front of me. I asked her if she could spare 12 cents.
Instead, she suggested that I put my sandwich in her basket, and anything else I would like to
buy! I told her that I only needed the sandwich, and offered her the change I  had found.
However, she insisted on buying me the dinner.
     A woman joyfully paid for my entire meal and I was grateful. I learned from her that we
should give without expecting anything in turn, even "Thanks".
1. When the author wanted to buy her lunch, she found that _____.
A. she didn"t have enough money with her
B. there were too many people in line

阅读理解     A 69yearold grandmother with  no teeth of her own has eventually won a long legal  battle to stop
a Scottish regional council(政务委员会) adding fluoride(氟化物)chemical to the public water  supply.
     In a case which has already cost the taxpayer ￡1,000,000, the judge ruled that it was beyond the
powers of the local authority to add the chemical to the water in order to reduce tooth decay.
     At her home last night Mrs Catherine McColl said, “I did what I thought was right and I would do
it again, too.”She claimed that adding fluoride to public drinking water made it into some kind of dirty
soup.“Where would it stop？”she asked.“They might come up with the idea of putting drugs into the
water to keep the unemployed quiet.”It was a horrible poison, she said, that could have caused all kinds
of diseases, including cancer.
     The judge, however, concluded that there was no evidence  to suggest that the inclusion of fluoride
in the water supply would have had a negative effect on public health. Although the chemical might serve
as an efficient and convenient means of achieving a beneficial effect on  the dental health of consumers
generally, he said, and its  use was greatly favoured by the dental profession, he  could also understand
why some members of the public, Mrs McColl in particular, might be passionately opposed  to the
action of the Water Authority in assuming the  right to improve public wellbeing without consulting the
public in the first case. The Authority"s legal duty to provide“wholesome” water for public consumption
which was both safe and pleasant to drink, did not, he said, extend to their right to safeguard public
health by chemical means.

1. Mrs McColl felt so strongly about the fluoride issue that she eventually ________.

A. took the local council to court
B. had a physical fight with the judge
C. urged the authority to apologize
D. spent much money removing the chemical

2. According to what the judge said in the passage, adding fluoride to the water________.

A. was not proved to be harmful
B. was the duty of the local authority
C. was strongly opposed by dentists
D. was surely beneficial to the public

3. The word“wholesome”in the last paragraph can be best replaced by the word“________”.

A. clear
B. poisonless
C. healthy
D. recycled

4. From the passage we learn that people like Mrs McColl are more concerned about________.

A. the improvement of their personal health
B. the problem of unemployment in their community
C. the chemicals to be used for the improvement of water quality
D. their right to be informed of the authorities" decisions
