     A gentle breeze blew through Jennifer"s hair. The golden red sun was setting. She was on the beach,
looking up at the fiery (火红的) ball. She was amazed by its color, deep red in the middle, softly fading into
yellow. She could hear nothing but the waves and the seagulls flying up above in the sky.
     The atmosphere relaxed her. After all she had been through, this was what she needed. "It"s getting late,"
she thought, "I must go home. My parents will be wondering where I am."
     She wondered how her parents would react, when she got home after the three days she was missing.
She kept on walking, directing herself where she spent every summer holiday. The road was deserted. She
walked slowly and silently. Just in a few hundred meters she would have been safe in her house.
     It was really getting dark now. The sun had set a few minutes before and it was getting cold too. She
wished she had her favorite sweater on: it kept her really warm. She imagined having it with her. This thought
disappeared when she finally saw her front door. It seemed different. Nobody had taken care of the outside
garden for a few days. She was shocked: her father was usually so strict about keeping everything clean and
tidy, and now... It all seemed deserted. She couldn"t understand what was going on.
     She entered the house. First, she went into the kitchen where she saw a note written by her father. It said:"
Dear Ellen, there is some coffee ready. I went looking." Ellen was her mother but-where was she? On the
right side of the hallway was her parents" room. She went in. Then she saw her. Her mother, lying on the bed,
was sleeping. Her face looked so tired, as if she hadn"t slept for days. She was really pale. Jennifer would have
wanted to wake her up but she looked too tired. So Jennifer just fell asleep beside her. When Jennifer woke
up, something was different-she wasn"t in her mother"s room and she wasn"t wearing the old clothes she ran
away in. She was in her cozy bed in her pajamas.
     It felt so good being back home. Suddenly she heard a voice, "Are you feeling better now, dear? You know
you got us very, very scared."
1. Three days later Jennifer came back home _____.
[     ]
A. at sunrise
B. at sunset
C. at night
D. at midday
2. What does the underlined phrase "This thought" most probably mean?
[     ]
A. The idea of going back home.
B. Her anxiety about her parents.
C. The feeling of being warm in her favorite sweater.
D. The feeling of getting back home safely.
3. Her father didn"t take care of the garden because _____.
[     ]
A. he was busy looking for her
B. he had to look after his wife
C. he was not strict with his job
D. he no longer enjoyed working in the garden
4. What can we infer from this passage?
[     ]
A. In fact Jennifer"s mother had been sick for days.
B. As Jennifer walked towards home, she became increasingly scared.
C. When she found the garden deserted, she realized she was wrong.
D. Having experienced a lot outside, Jennifer felt home was safest for her.

     At two o"clock a bank robber stole in. "This is a holdup," the man said rudely. He took a gun from under

     A long time ago, there was an emperor (皇帝). One day he told his horseman that if he could ride on his
horse and   1   as much land area as he liked, he would give him the area of land he had covered. Sure enough,
the horseman quickly jumped onto his horse and   2   as fast as possible to cover as much land area as he could.
He kept on riding and riding, whipping the horse to go as fast as possible. Even when he was   3   or tired, he
did not stop because he wanted to cover as much area as possible. When he at last covered a large amount of
land, he was exhausted and was   4  . Then he asked himself, "Why did I push myself so hard to cover so much
land area? Now I am dying and I only   5   a very small area to bury myself."
     The above story is   6   to the journey of our life. We push ourselves very hard every day to make more   7  ,

the surrounding   8   and the things we love to do. One day when we look back, we will   9   that we don"t really
need that much, but then we cannot turn back time for what we have  10 .
     Life is not about making money. Life is definitely (肯定地) not about work! Work is only necessary to keep
us living so as to enjoy the beauty and pleasures of life.

     Not many years ago, a wealthy and rather strange old man named Johnson lived alone in a village in the
south of England. He had made a lot of money in trading with foreign countries. When he was 75, he gave
£12,000 to the village school to buy land and equipment for a children"s playground.

their talk, Johnson remarked that he was 75 and expected to live to be 100, and the newspaperman asked

each day. "I have an injection (注射) in my neck each evening", he told the newspaperman, thinking of his
evening glass of whisky.
