阅读理解.     I always avoid going on field investigations with the toxics (毒物)team, unless it"s absolutely
necessary. It"s not that I mind the hard work, or am afraid of coming into contact with toxic
substances. What I fear is quickly losing hope about the work I do.
     However, doing field research with the toxics team, all I see and feel is filth-nothing else. Even
if I close my eyes, I can smell the smell of food processing, rotting organic waste from paper mills
and chemicals from clothing manufacturers.
     One morning, I went to investigate a discharged pipe to document and collect samples of
pollutants secretly being emitted by a textile mill. I had to work with the utmost secrecy in order
to avoid being discovered by the textile mill.
     I dipped a long measuring pole into the large polluting pipe to measure the volume of polluted
water being emitted. But the surface of the water, covered in oil and filth, made me feel as if to vomit.
     All of a sudden, I felt someone hit me on my back. It frightened me so much that I almost fell
into the water. I grasped the pole and looked behind me to see an old man standing there. He
asked: "Can you catch fish here?" I realized that he thought I was holding a fishing pole, so I kept
calm and said: "Yes, I heard that there"s a kind of small fish living in this water, and it has medicinal
benefits."
     The old man grew quite curious and replied: "That may be. If a fish can survive in water as dirty
as this, it must have a lot of resistance. So it wouldn"t be too strange if such fish had medicinal benefits."
      It was clear he was just passing by, so I answered: "Yeah, survival of the fittest. Fish that adapt
can survive, just like us humans."
      He kept talking to me and didn"t want to leave. He wanted to see whether or not I would catch
the small fish with medicinal benefits.1. The text is mainly about      .A. a research report about pollution    
B. an exciting experience of fishing
C. an experience of doing research on pollution    
D. an unforgettable talk with an old man2. What is the writer of the text most probably?A. A newspaper reporter.  
B. A researcher about pollution. 
C. A fisherman.      
D. A worker of the textile mill.3. Why did the writer tell the old man he was fishing?A. Because he wanted to satisfy the old man"s curiosity
B. Because the old man was interested in fishing too
C. Because he did the research secretly
D. Because the old man wanted to buy the fish4. We can infer from the last paragraph that      .A. the old man had found out the secret 
B. the old man wanted to catch the fish by himself
C. the writer would have to tell the old man the fact
D. the old man was sent to watch over the writer

     I"ll be the first to admit that I am a technophobe (对技术有恐惧感的人).Who would have guessed
that a website would help repay a 20-year-old loan?
     I"1l always remember my last day at school. My best friend, Jenny, had organized a party in the Sixth
Form Common Room; Jenny asked me to go to the supermarket with her to buy all the snacks. "I"m
really looking forward to this party, Stingy," she said. Everyone called me Stingy instead of Debbie
because they thought I didn"t like to spend money. Actually, it was true.
     "There"s lots of money in the kitty (零星凑起的一笔钱). Let"s go crazy!" Going crazy meant buying
enough snacks to feed an army. It came to ?19.90, which was a lot of money in 1982.
     Jenny gave me a guilty(内疚的)look. "I"ve left-the kitty money in the common room. Can you pay
and I"ll give you back the money?"
     "Sure," I replied, trying to look relaxed. "Neither a lender or a borrower be" was my motto but I
didn"t want to look stingy(小气). I gave ?20 to the impatient shop assistant.
     Well, the Party was a great success. So great that I completely forgot about my loan until I was flying
to America the next day. I was going to live with my uncle"s family until I started university.
     I tried to get in touch with Jenny but her family had moved. My ?20 was lost. Until. I"d heard about
a website called Friends Reunited which helped people contact old school friends. My husband helped
me log on and find my school. There she was, Jenny Frost.
     I"m now married with a beautiful daughter called Debbie. Does anyone know how to get in touch
with Debbie "Stingy" Jones? I still owe her ?20!
     We met two months later and the ?20 was returned, plus interest(利息)of course. After all, I"m a
bank manager now, so loans are my business.
1. Why did Jenny spend a lot of money on the snacks?
A. Debbie had money.
B. There was money she could use.
C. She wanted Debbie to stop being stingy.
D. She wanted to be crazy.
2. How did Debbie get her money at last?
A. Her husband found Jenny.
B. Jenny had a website on the Internet.
C. Debbie met Jenny.
D. Debbie put a message on the Friends Reunited website.
3. Which sentence best describes Debbie Jones?
A. She didn"t like to spend money at school and often uses computers.
B. She sometimes lends money and doesn"t like using computers.
C. She sometimes lends money and uses, the computer whenever she can.
D. She only lends money to friends and doesn"t like using computers.
4. We know from the passage that Jenny .
A. liked parties at school and felt guilty about borrowing money
B. had fun at school but soon forgot about her school friends
C. forgot her best friend at school until she saw the Friends Reunited website
D. was forgetful about the money
     During my free time one day, I wandered down a lonely path into the woods and sat against a tree.
Then I saw one of the camp counselors approaching me. "Oh great," I thought, since counselors were
always trying to cheer you up or make you laugh.
     "Hey," he said, "mind if I have a seat?" I shrugged(耸肩). I wasn"t going to encourage him, but I couldn"t exactly stop him, either. He sat down alongside me and extended a hand. "I"m Gary," he said, "and
you"re Erica, right?" I nodded. "You don"t exactly look like you"re having a good time," he began.
     I crossed my arms and gritted my teeth. "Look," I said, "I didn"t want to come to camp, I don"t like it, I"m not having fun, and it basically stinks." I glared at Gary.
     "So there"s nothing here at all for you, huh?" he asked.
     "Nothing," I answered.
     "Let me show you something," said Gary. He got up, and I followed him along the path until I heard a
sound like a roaring freight train.
     "What"s that?" I asked.
     "Wait and see," he replied, with a small smile.
     When we rounded the corner, I couldn"t believe what I saw. There was the biggest waterfall I could
ever imagine, right in front of me. "Cool!" I said, and I could feel my eyes getting bigger and a smile tugging at my mouth.
     "Still think there"s nothing here for you?" asked Gary. "Because there"s a whole lot more of this kind of "nothing" around here."
     I had to admit, the waterfall was impressive.
     "Look," said Gary, "camp is what you make it. You can be sullen(阴郁的) and closed-minded and
have a rotten four weeks, or you can take a look around you and see some of the incredible sights and
appreciate the opportunity. It would be useless for me to try to make you have fun. You can only do that
for yourself. But if you loosen up a little, you might actually have a good time." With that, he turned and
walked away, leaving me on the path.
     That night, by the campfire, I found myself singing along with everyone else. By the time the four weeks were up, I didn"t want to leave. I"d seen some amazing things and made some great friends.
     Beauty is where you find it. Life is what you make it. I think it"s going to be a good year this year. I
mean, I"m going to work to make it one. Maybe if I"m lucky, I"ll get to go back to camp next year!
1.When Gary walked to Erica, you could predict that  ________ .
A. he would help her feel better  
B. she would say hello to him  
C. he would talk about his life  
D. she would tell him to go away
2.What can you tell about Erica from the ending of this story?  
A. She has many close friends at home.
B. She is looking forward to the future.
C. She"s a good student who gets mostly A"s.  
D. She often gets into trouble at school.
3.Which is the theme of this story?          
A. What you get out of life depends on what you put into it.
B. Parents are always making kids do things they don"t want to do.
C. You will forget your trouble by the campfire.
D. Waterfalls always make you feel better.
