阅读理解。   Three blondes (金发碧眼的女人) were being trained to become detectives by a policeman. To
test their skills in recognizing a suspect ( 嫌疑犯 ), the policeman showed the first blonde a picture
for five seconds and then asked how she could recognize him. She thought it easy, for the suspect
had only one eye. The policeman felt disappointed at this funny answer. He showed the second lady
the picture for five seconds and asked her how she would recognize him. The second blonde giggled,
flipped  her hair, and  said, "Ha!  It"s easy to find the one-eared person!" Her answer also made the
policeman angry. Turning to the third lady, he asked, "This is your suspect, and how would you recognize
him?" He added quickly, "Think hard before giving a stupid answer." The third blonde looked at the picture carefully for a moment and said, "HMMMM ... the suspect is wearing contact lenses (隐形眼镜)." The
policeman was surprised and speechless, because he really didn"t know himself if the suspect wore contacts or not. "Well, that is a good answer. Wait here for a few minutes while I check his file." He left the room and went to his office, checked the suspect"s file in his computer and returned with a beaming smile.
"Wow! I can"t believe it ... it"s TRUE! The suspect does in fact wear contact lenses. Good work! How
were you able to make such a wise observation?" "That"s easy," the blonde replied, "he can"t wear glasses because he only has one eye and one ear!"1. Which of the following cannot conclude from the passage that detectives should have?   A. They must be charming.
B. Their observation must be keen.
C. They must be humorous.
D. They must be good at thinking.2. According to the passage we can infer that ________.  A. the suspect was easy to be recognized
B. the picture was just a side of the suspect
C. the suspect must be a disabled person
D. the suspect was caught by the policeman3. What will probably happen to the three blondes after this test?  A. The first blonde may be accepted as a detective at once.
B. The second blonde may be accepted as a detective at once.

阅读理解。     Edmund Halley was an English scientist who lived over 200years ago. He studied the observations of
comets which other scientists had made. The orbit of one particular comet was a very difficult mathematical problem. He could not figure it out. Neither could other scientists who dealt with such problems.
     However, Halley had a friend named Isaac Newton. Who was a brilliant mathematician. Newton
thought he had already which he had done it. He told Halley that the orbit of a comet had the shape of an
ellipse.    
     Now Halley set to work. He figured out the orbits of some of the comets that had been observed by
scientist. He made a surprising discovery. The comets that had appeared in the years 1531, 1607 and
1682 all had the same orbit. Yet their appearances had been 75 to 76 years apart.
     This seemed very strange to Halley. Three different comets followed the same orbit. The more Halley
thought about it, the more he thought that there had not been three different comets, as people thought. He decided that they had simply seen the same comet three times. The comet had gone away and had come
back again. It was an astonishing idea! Halley felt certain enough to make a prediction of what would
happen in the future. He decided that this comet would appear in the year 1758. There were 53 years to
go before Halley"s prediction could be tested. In 1758 the comet appeared in the sky. Halley did not see
it, for he had died some years before. Ever since then that comet been called Halley"s comet, in his honor.1. Halley made his discovery _____.A. by doing experiments             
B. by means of his own careful observation

B.1705  
C. 1706    
D.1707 3. This text in general is about _____.A. Halley and other scientists   
B. the orbit of a comet
C. Newton and Halley  
D. Halley and Halley 4. Which of the following is TRUE?A. Edmund Halley was an American scientist
B. Halley made his discovery by doing experiments.

     I began working in journalism when I was eight. It was my mother"s idea. She wanted me to "make
something" of myself, and decided I had better start young if I was to have any chance of keeping up
with the competition.
     With my load of magazines I headed toward Belleville Avenue. The crowds were there. There were
two gas stations on the corner of Belleville and Union. For several hours I made myself highly visible,
making sure everyone could see me and the heavy black letters on the bag that said THE SATURDAY
EVENING POST. When it was supper time, I walked back home.
      "How many did you sell, my boy?" my mother asked.
      "None."
       "Where did you go?"
      "The corner of Belleville and Union Avenues."
      "What did you do?"
      "Stood on the corner waiting for somebody to buy a Saturday Evening Post."
      "You just stood there?"
      "Didn"t sell a single one."
      "My God, Russell!"
      Uncle Allen put in, "Well, I"ve decided to take the Post." I handed him a copy and he paid me a
nickle(五分镍币). It was the first nickle I earned.
      Afterwards my mother taught me how to be a salesman. I would have to ring doorbells, address
adults with self-confidence, and persuade them by saying that no one, no matter how poor, could afford
to be without the Saturday Evening Post in the home.
      One day, I told my mother I"d changed my mind. I didn"t want to make a success in the magazine
business.
     "If you think you can change your mind like this," she replied, "you"ll become a good-for-nothing."
She insisted that, as soon as school was over, I should start ringing doorbells, selling magazines. Whenever I said no, she would scold me.
      My mother and I had fought this battle almost as long as I could remember. My mother, dissatisfied
with my father"s plain workman"s life, determined that I would not grow up like him and his people. But
never did she expect that, forty years later, such a successful journalist as me would go back to her
husband"s people for true life and love.
