is a hard worker, who also loves to run and play. In short, he"s an ideal friend and a heroic character.
Here is the thing: Joey is a horse, who appears as the main character in Steven Spielberg"s new film
War Horse.
It is based on Michael Morpurgo"s 1982 novel, which also caused the same-titled Tony Awards
winning play.
The film follows the saga of Joey, a racehorse that"s trained for farm work under the loving care of
Albert (Jeremy Irvine )after Albert"s drunk father Ted(Peter Mullan ) overpays for the animal at auction
(拍卖会).
Then the World War I tears Albert and Joey apart. Joey is sold into the war effort for the British and
starts his episodic adventures in Europe.
Splendidly staged, the battle plots in the film are visually astounding and impressive.
And with Spielberg"s unique, top-notch direction and storytelling skills, War Horse cannot escape its
episodic nature, calling to mind another Spielberg film about the horrors of war and its effects upon
soldiers and civilians-Saving Private Ryan.
While that film shocked with horrific scenes of bleeding, it relied on a company of easily-described
characters and a focused storyline to present heroic themes.
Like Saving Private Ryan, War Horse clings to a series of characters, not only Albert, but also
British officers, French civilians and German soldiers, who display courage in the face of danger.
Everyone who comes in contact with Joey is either already in touch with their inner angel or is quickly
moved to become more humane.
Although none of this covers the fact that we"ve seen this stuff elsewhere before, the lovely sentiment
will steal your heart.
And the emotional signature of Spielberg can be felt as he establishes the relationship between the
boy and the horse and the mood of the piece - there will be tears.
Therefore, calling this beautiful, dramatically incomplete film " Saving Private Joey", is entirely
justifiable.
B. received the title of Tony Awards Winning Play
C. covers a lot of characters
D. tells the story happening in the Second World War
B. Joey is a heroic character because he saved many people"s lives.
C. Albert sold Joey into the war effort for Europe.
D. Joey came to Albert"s care after Ted paid a lot of money for it.
B. confusing
C. satisfying
D. disappointing
B. Albert and Joey
C. Saving Private Joey
D. Spielberg"s Joey

选项.
In a national spelling contest in America, an 11-year-old girl was asked to spell a certain word. But
with her soft voice the judges were not sure if she spelled the word with the letter A or E. 1 At that
time, the girl knew she had misspelled the word. But instead of lying and telling the judges she had said
the correct letter, she told the truth that she had said the wrong letter. 2 .
As the girl walked off the stage, the entire audience stood on their feet clapping to applaud her
honesty. Later, dozens of newspaper wrote about this 11-year-old girl"s courage and honesty, even
when it cost her the contest. 3
Probably the biggest test of our character and honesty is what we would do if we knew we would
never get caught.
This young girl could easily have lied, and nobody would have known it but her. But that"s just it:
She would know she did wrong. 4
This young girl was strong and smart enough to prize her own conscience and character more than
the prize from a spelling contest. Her respect for herself was more important than any respect others
might give her for winning a contest. She knew she would have to live with herself and the choice she
made at the moment.
5
A. So she won the contest.
B. As a result, she lost the contest.
C. The judges wanted to give her another chance.
D. It"s been said, "If you cheat, you make yourself cheap."
E. It"s so true that the choices you make today make what you are tomorrow.
F. They talked it over and finally decided to simply ask her what she had said.
G. But the fact is that she won the biggest contest that day: the contest of her character.

doorbell rang. I opened the front door and saw two small children in rags huddling together on the top
step.
"Any old papers, lady?" asked one of them.
I was busy. I wanted to say "no" until I looked down at their feet. They were wearing thin little sandals(凉鞋), wet with heavy snow.
"Come in and I"ll make you a cup of hot cocoa."
They walked over and sat down at the table. Their wet sandals left marks upon the floor. I served them cocoa and bread to fight against the cold outside. Then I went back to the kitchen and started cooking.
The silence in the front room struck me. I looked in. The girl held the empty cup in her hands, looking
at it. The boy asked in a flat voice, "Lady, are you rich?"
"Am I rich? Pity, no!"
I looked at my wornout slipcovers(椅套). The girl put her cup back in its saucer(茶碟)carefully and
said, "Your cups match your saucers." They left after that, holding their papers against the wind. They had
reminded me that I had so much for which to be grateful.
Plain blue china cups and saucers were only worth five pence. But they matched.
I tasted the potatoes and stirred(搅动)the meat soup. Potatoes and brown meat soup, a roof over our heads, my man with a regular job, these matched, too.
I moved the chairs back from the fire and cleaned the living room. The muddy marks of little sandals
were still wet upon my floor. Let them be for a while, I thought, just in case I should begin to forget how
rich I am.
B．A story of Thanksgiving Day
C．Don"t forget how rich you are
D．Does cups and saucers match well?
B．she wanted to invite them to her Thanksgiving party
C．she showed great pity and care on them
D．she had the same experience as them in the past
B．The writer had thought she wasn"t rich because her supplies were not expensive.
C．If cups and saucers match well, they are a best pair even though cheap.
D．After hearing what they said, the writer seemed to understand what a rich life was.
tired and was losing weight fast. Diagnosed with diabetes(糖尿病), Thomas would need to inject himself with insulin(胰岛素) three times a day for the rest of his life or risk nerve damage, blindness, and even
death. And if that weren"t bad enough, he had no health insurance.
After a month of feeling upset, Thomas decided he"d better find a way to fight back. He left Canton,
Michigan for New York, got a job waiting tables, nicknamed himself the Diabetic Rockstar, and created
diabeticrockstar.com, a free online community for diabetics and their loved ones-a place where over
1,100 people share personal stories, information, and resources.
Jason Swencki"s son, Kody, was diagnosed with diabetes at six. Father and son visit the online
children"s forums(论坛) together most evenings. "Kody gets so excited, writing to kids from all over,"
says Swencki, one of the site"s volunteers. "They know what he"s going through, so he doesn"t feel alone."
Kody is anything but alone: Diabetes is now the seventh leading cause of death in the United States,
with 24 million diagnosed cases. And more people are being diagnosed at younger ages.
These days, Thomas"s main focus is his charity(慈善机构), Fight It, which provides medicines and
supplies to people-225 to date-who can"t afford a diabetic"s huge expenses. Fightit.org has raised about
$ 23,000-in products and in cash. In May, Thomas will hold the first annual Diabetic Rockstar Festival
in the Caribbean.
Even with a staff of 22 volunteers, Thomas often devotes up to 50 hours a week to his cause, while
still doing his fulltime job waiting tables. "Of the diabetes charities out there, most are putting money into
finding a cure," says Bentley Gubar, one of Rockstar"s original members. "But Christopher is the only
person I know saying people need help now."
1. Which of the following is TRUE of Christopher Thomas?
A. He needs to go to the doctor every day.

2. Diabeticrockstar.com was created for ________.
A. diabetics to communicate

3. According to the text, Kody ________.
A. feels lonely because of his illness
B. benefits from diabeticrockstar.com
C. helps create the online kid"s forums
D. writes children"s stories online
4. What can we learn about Fight It?
A. It helps the diabetics in financial difficulties.
B. It organizes parties for volunteer once a year.
C. It offers less expensive medicine to diabetics.
D. It owns a wellknown medical website.
5. The last paragraph suggests that Thomas ________.
A. works fulltime in a diabetes charity
B. employs 22 people for his website
C. helps diabetics in his own way
