Even kids know that we should wait for the traffic light to turn green before crossing a road, but not everybody follows this basic rule.
“Chinese style road crossing” has become a hot expression recently. Chinese people “cross roads without thinking about traffic lights, so long as（只要）they are part of a crowd”, said a post on Sina Weibo.
A CCTV news program showed that in only an hour, more than 600 people jumped red lights when crossing a road at a crossing in Shijiazhuang, Hebei.
Many people say that they jaywalk（乱闯马路）because the red light lasts too long. Such an opinion is supported by a research team at Tongji University. The team did research on people’s waiting times at different road crossings from 2008 to 2010. They found that Chinese people would wait for 70 to 90 seconds before they lost their patience. “People are likely to ignore(忽视) the light when the waiting time is longer than they can stand,” said Ni Ying, a member of the research team.
However, a survey on Sina Weibo suggested that half of the respondents（调查对象）believe that people jaywalk mainly because they disregard（忽视）rules.“I always obey traffic rules. Time is important but safety should come first,” wrote “Qixiaoe” on Weibo.
Many countries give out punishments to jaywalkers. In Singapore, the maximum(最大量) can be three months in prison. Some Chinese cities have started taking some actions, too. For example, the first three people in a jaywalking group will be fined 50 yuan in Shijiazhuang.
But calling on people to respect rules is more important. To completely solve the problem, everyone should realize the importance of obeying the traffic rules.
1. Which of the following is the “Chinese style road crossing”?
A. To wait for the traffic light to turn green. B. To cross
9
a road slowly.
C. To cross roads without looking at traffic lights. D. To follow the basic traffic lights.
2. What does the phrase “the team” in Paragraph 4 refer to (指的是)?
A. A CCTV news program. B. A research group at Tongji University.
C. A post on Sina Weibo. D. A daily newspaper.
3. How long will Chinese people wait to cross the road before they lose patience?
A. Less than one minute. B. About five minutes.
C. Less than one and a half minutes. D. More than ten minutes.
4. Why do people jaywalk according to the survey on Sina Weibo?
A. Because there are too many people on the road.
B. Because the red light lasts too long.
C. Because people don’t pay much attention to rules.
D. Because people have less patience.
5. The writer suggests that we should________ to solve the problem of jaywalking.
A. punish the jaywalkers B. disregard the traffic rules
C. reduce the time of red lights D. call on people to obey the traffic lights

Trees are useful to men in three important ways: They provide them with wood and other products (产品), they give them shade (树荫), and they help to prevent drought and floods.
Unfortunately, in many parts of the world, men have not realized (功能) is the most important. In their eagerness (渴望) to make money form trees, some people have cut trees down in large numbers, only to find that without them they have lost the best friends they had. And besides (此外), they are usually too careless to plant and look after new trees, so the forests slowly disappear.
This doesn’t only mean that men will have fewer trees. The results are even more serious: where there are trees, their roots (根) break up soil—allowing the rain to sink in and also bind (固定) the soil, thus (因而) preventing it from being washed away easily, but where there are no trees, the rain falls and carrying away the rich top—soil. When all the top—soil is gone, nothing remains (剩下) but worthless desert.

Little Tommy was doing very badly in math. His parents had tried everything—tutors (家庭教师), cards, special learning centers—in short, everything they could think of. Finally they took Tommy to a catholic (天主教的) school.
After the first day, little Tommy came home with a very serious look on his face. He didn’t kiss his mother hello. Instead, he went straight to his room and started studying. Books and papers were spread (铺开) out all over the room and little Tommy was hard at work. His mother was surprised. She called him down to dinner and as soon as he finished eating, he went back to his room, without a word. In no time he was back hitting the books as hard as before. This went on for some time, day after day while the mother tried to understand what was happening.
Finally, little Tommy brought home his report card. He quietly put it on the table and went up to his room and hit the books. His mom looked at it and to her surprise, little Tommy got an A in math. She could no longer hold her curiosity (好奇心). She went to his room and asked, “Son, what was it? Was it the nuns (修女)?”
Little Tommy looked at her and shook his head, “No.”
“Well then,” she asked again. “WHAT was it?”
Little Tommy looked at her and said, “Well, on the first day of school, when I saw that man nailed (钉) to the plus sign (加号), I knew they weren’t joking.”
◆根据以上短文内容，然后从每题所给的四个选项中选择最佳选项。
1. Why did Tommy’s parents send him to a catholic school?
A. Because he could eat well there.
B. Because he could earn more about nuns.
C. Because his parents wanted him to do better in his math.
D. Because his parents didn’t want him to learn math any more.
2. Tommy’s mother felt surprised that his son _______.
A. was still the same as usual B. ate so much at dinner
C. kissed her hello after school D. worked hard but said little
9
3. “Hitting the books” means “_______” in Chinese.
A. 用功 B. 捶书 C. 发泄 D. 振作
4. The last sentence in the passage shows that _______.
A. Tommy felt sorry for the mail B. Tommy was afraid of being nailed
C. Tommy didn’t like the plus sign D. Tommy liked playing jokes on others
5. From the passage, we can infer (推断) that _______.
A. teachers should be strict with their students
B. mistaking (误解) might do good sometimes
C. a catholic school is much better than other ones
D. nuns are good at helping children with their math
【答案及解析】
1. 选C。文章第1段说Tommy数学学不好，其父母想尽了一切办法都不奏效，最后将他送进了一所天主教的教会学校。
2. 选D。认真阅读第2段前面几句话，并注意以下信息：After the first day, little Tommy came home…didn’t kiss his mother hello…was hard at work…without a word. 可知答案应选D。
3. 选A。根据文章大意和Finally, little Tommy brought home his report card. He quietly put it on the table and went up to his room and hit the books这个句子的语境，可知hit the books的意思是“用功”。
4. 选B。Tommy学习一直不用功，但自从进了这所catholic school之后，情况就不一样了——整天都发狠读书，结果数学考试也得了A。这是为什么呢？文章在最后道出了其原因：Well, on the first day of school, when I saw that man nailed (钉) to the plus sign (加号), I knew they weren’t joking. 由此可知，Tommy是担心学习不用功会被钉在十字架上。
5. 选B。Tommy把the man nailed to the plus sign误解为“学习不用功的结果”，从而一改自己原来不好学的不良习惯，很快就把数学成绩赶了上去。可见，误解有时也可以起到好的效果。
