were lucky. If I had decided to  19  you and not to tell you, you would be continuing this pursuit till your

      I will never forget what my old headmaster taught me. Normally when you are only 15 years of age
you do not remember most of the things that are taught by your teachers. But this particular story is one
such lesson that I will never forget. Every time I drift off course, I get reminded of this story.
      It was a normal Monday morning, and he was making a speech to the students on important things in
life and about devoting ourselves to what is important to us. This is how the story went:
      An old man lived in a certain part of London, and he would wake up every morning and go to the
subway. He would get the train right to Central London, and then sit at the street corner and beg. He would
do this every single day of his life. He sat at the same street corner and begged for almost 20 years. His
house was dirty, and a stench (恶臭) came out of the house and it smelled horrible. The neighbors could
not stand the smell any more, so they asked the police officers to clear the place. The officers knocked down
the door and cleaned the house. There were small bags of money all over the house that he had collected over
the years.
      The police counted the money, and they soon realized that the old man was a millionaire. They waited
outside his house to tell the good news to him. When he arrived home that evening, he was met by one of
the officers who told him that there was no need for him to beg any more as he was a rich man now, a
millionaire. He said nothing at all; he went into his house and locked the door. The next morning he woke up
as usual, went to the subway, got into the train, and sat at the street corner and continued to beg. Obviously,
this old man had no great plans, dreams or anything important for his life. We learn nothing from this story
other than staying focused on the things we enjoy doing.
1. The headmaster told the story to the students to ______.
[     ]
A. make the students relaxed in the lesson
B. remind the students to think deeply
C. show how poor the old man was
D. encourage the students to become rich
2. After hearing what the officer said, the old man ______.
[     ]
A. believed the officer was playing a joke on him.
B. didn"t know many people respected him a lot.
C. was very angry to find his house broken into.
D. was not so excited as the officer had expected.
3. What did the author learn from the story?
[     ]
A. One should devote himself to his dream.
B. The old man was foolish not to stop begging.
C. What the headmaster taught was very important.
D. People must have a plan before taking action.
4. Which word can best describe the author"s attitude towards the old man?
[     ]
A. Pity.
B. Disappointment.
C. Respect.
D. Anger.
5. We know from the passage that ______.
[     ]
A. the author had a big dream at the age of 15.
B. the headmaster was popular with the students.
B. the old man begged every day without stopping.
D. the neighbors took great pity on the old man.

      Like a growing number of young women in Vietnam"s northern part city of Haiphong, Pham Thi Hue
was infected with HIV by her husband, one of the town"s many drug users. But instead of being shamed
into silence, as Vietnamese with HIV and AIDS are, the 25-year-old tailor and mother of one child went
public, appearing on television and at conferences. Her business suffered and her neighbors insulted (辱骂)
her, but Hue has now become the public face of Mothers and Wives, an HIV/AIDS support group established
in Haiphong by a Norwegian nongovernmental organization and her neighborhood"s People"s Committee. Last
year, she founded a smaller group named after a local flower. People who need advice on treatment or help
can dial a hot line and get assistance from able and empathetic (同情的) HIV victims. "We gather to support
each other," Hue says. "When we are sick, what we need most is encouragement and comfort from people
who understand our situation and are willing to share our happiness, as well as our sadness."
      On a hot and damp night last month, Hue welcomed into her small home a very thin woman, also a tailor,
who was HIV positive. The woman tearfully told Hue that she had not told anyone about her condition, fearing
that she would lose customers and that her daughter would be insulted at school. Hue became the wise elder,
offering medical and personal advice.
1. What did Pham Thi Hue do after she was infected with HIV?
[     ]
A. She kept silent.
B. She worked as usual.
C. She stayed at home and cried every day.
D. She went public and gave help to others.
2. It can be inferred from the passage that the group Pham Thi Hue founded is made up of ______.
[     ]
A. drug users
B. HIV victims
C. all kinds of patients
D. poor people
3. From the passage we can learn that Pham Thi Hue is a woman who is ______.
[     ]
A. weak and kind
B. foolish and idle
C. brave and helpful
D. cautious and energetic

      One evening a police officer was driving slowly along a road. He was off duty and was wearing plain
clothes.
      Suddenly he saw two men running out of a building. He heard someone shouting, "Help! Help! Stop
thief!" The police officer was sure that the two men were thieves. He knew he must arrest them. However,
he was not only out of uniform (制服) but also unarmed (没有带枪). He knew if he got out of his car and
tried to arrest them, at least one of the men would easily escape. The police officer was facing a difficult
problem. He knew that he mustn"t let the men escape, but how could he arrest them?
      He thought quickly and had an idea. It involved danger and it might not work, but he decided to try.
      He drove his car up to the men and stopped beside them. Then he put his head out of the window and
asked, "Do you want a lift?"
      "Yes, yes," the men answered, and quickly got into his car. "Please take us to the railway station," they
told him. "Very good," the police officer said and drove off. After a few minutes, one of the men cried out,
"But this isn"t the way to the railway station. Where are you going?" "I must go this way," the police officer
explained. "There"s a big fire and the traffic is held up. You don"t want to sit in a traffic jam, do you?"
      "No, no," the men agreed. "Please take us the quickest way." The next moment, the police officer had
pulled up at the police station. He jumped out, shouted for help, and seconds later the two thieves were
arrested.
1. How did the police officer decide to try to arrest the two thieves?
[     ]
A. By telephoning the police for help.
B. By letting them get into his car.
C. By going back to the police station for his gun.
D. By asking people around to help him.
2. The underlined word "involved" means "_____".
[     ]
A. developed
B. offered
C. stopped
D. caused
3. Why did the police officer tell the two thieves to get into his car instead of going to catch them directly?
[     ]
A. He was afraid he would be beaten by them.
B. He was afraid they would recognize him.
C. He was afraid one of them would escape.
D. He was afraid they would not escape.
4. Soon after the two thieves got into the car they found out that _____.
[     ]
A. they were not on the way to the railway station
B. the police officer was taking them to the police station
C. they were on the way to the airport
D. they were caught by the policeman

      Having an interview (面试) doesn"t sound like a big deal, just like getting good marks in college. You
simply go in and meet someone, talk for a while, and then leave. Nothing to stress over, not the end of the
world, but I"ve never been interviewed and I have my first one tomorrow for my job in Columbia.
      I"ve spent a lot of time thinking about it and have decided that it shouldn"t matter all that much. It seems
that the interview would only make a difference if the company is on the fence about you, or if the interview
was unpleasant and they walk away thinking that you are too, then the officers might be encouraged to think
about your request again. On the other hand, if you were in the "maybe" pile, a good interview could push
you onto the list of accepted candidates (候选人).
      I know I shouldn"t worry. After all, they probably have already made up their minds about me. My essay
was, to say the least, unique. The interview is at Starbucks. What does that mean? My friend, who did a lot
of these interviews last year (and who was accepted to the company there), told me to wear jeans and a nice
sweater. I was going to go with a skirt. The fact that it"s at Starbucks, however, is making me think that jeans
might be more proper. And then there"s the other problem of knowing who my interviewer is. I discussed this
with my music teacher, who suggested, "They"ll probably be wearing something." That good idea hadn"t
crossed my mind, which just goes to show that my brain has stopped to function. Stress is taking over my
life. 
      Tonight I will prepare. I will choose what to wear and what, if anything, to bring. I like to talk, so this
should not be a problem. Hopefully when I get there I"ll find that this is actually the part of the process I"m
most comfortable with. Until then I"ll spend my time preparing and hoping.
1. Before the interview, the author feels quite _____.
[     ]
A. lucky
B. easy
C. hopeless
D. excited
2. The author wants to wear jeans mainly because _____.
[     ]
A. the interviewer is fond of them
B. her friend likes them very much
C. her music teacher suggests her doing so
D. they are proper at Starbucks
3. The author seems to feel her _____ can do best to the interview.
[     ]
A. clothes
B. degree
C. talking ability
D. college marks
4. The best title for the passage would be "_____".
[     ]
A. My learning trouble
B. A good college
C. An interview
D. Stress of life
