He smiled at her and said, “Good morning! Lovely day, isn’t it?”
He had a wide smile 21 his face, and his eyes shone with happiness. But Alicia saw that he did not have teeth.
“Good morning!” replied Alicia. “Yes, it is a lovely day.”
Alicia thought he 22 very old and wise. She thought he must be at least 90 years old! She decided to ask him about the 23 of a happy old age.

Frank Woolworth was born in Rodman, New York, in 1852. His family were very poor farmers, and there was never enough to eat. Frank decided he did not want to be a farmer. He took a short business course, and went to work as a salesman in a large city.
Woolworth realized he could attract people’s interest when he sold goods(商品),but he soon learned something more important. One day his boss told him to sell some odds and ends (小商品 ) for as much as he could get. Frank put all these things on one table with a sign which said FIVE CENTS EACH. People fought to buy the things and the table was soon cleared.
Soon afterwards, Woolworth opened his own store, selling goods at five and ten cents. But he had another lesson to learn before he became successful. That is, if you want to make money by selling low-price goods, you have to buy them in large quantities(量) from the factories. Once, Woolworth went to Germany and placed an order (订单) for knives. The order was so large that the factory had to keep working 24 hours a day for a whole year. In this way, the price of the knives was cut down by half.
By 1919, Woolworth had over 1000 stores in the US and Canada, and opened his first store in London. He made many millions and his name became famous in the world. He always runs(经营) his business according to strict rules, of which the most important was: “THE CUSTOMER IS ALWAYS RIGHT.”
36. Frank took a short business course in order to ____________.
A. earn more money for his family
B. learn something from a salesman
C. get away from the farm
D. get enough to eat.
37. Frank sold the odds and ends quickly because _____________.
A. he knew how to get people to buy his goods.
B. he sold his goods at a very low price .
C. he had put the goods on a table in a very nice way.
D. he sold all the goods at the same low price .
38. The price of the knives was cut down by half because ______________.
A. the factory workers worked 24 hours a day without any rest.
B. knives were ordered in large quantities from the factory.
C. the knives were made in Germany, where labor (劳动力) was cheap.
D. the knives were produced in one factory.
39. _____________ makes Woolworth a world-famous man.
A. His business skills (技巧)
B. The low price of the goods he sold everywhere
C. His trip to Germany and his order of knives
D. His health and life

D. the customer is always right

For many years , Hawaii has been a magic name to people who like to travel. People on both sides of the Pacific Ocean(太平洋), in Japan and in America, dream of seeing these beautiful islands in the middle of ocean. They dream to see the sunset over the ocean. In the tropical (热带的)lands, the sun drops like a ball of golden fire into the sea. And it drops so quickly that you can almost see it move. The sun leaves behind a glow(绚丽光芒)) that lights the skies in the quiet water.
People often have a quiet, relaxing time, walking along the water. This scene is not too different from the beauty that greeted the first strangers to these islands hundreds years ago. They were Polynesia people who came from Tahiti in canoes that much bigger than small boats.
They found the beautiful white sand beaches and the waving palm trees(摇曳的棕榈树), but there were no big hotels like the ones we see nowadays . The first people came to Hawaii nearly two thousand years ago, but tall hotels were only built in the last 30 years. Now jet airplanes make it possible to fly to Hawaii for a weekend from Tokyo or San Francisco or Los Angeles.
Wherever people come from, they really want to see the original(原始的) beauty of Hawaii. They want to see the lovely beaches and the mountains called Diamond Head which is almost hidden by the tall hotels.
41. Hawaii is a name __________.
A. given by people who like to travel
B. attracting a lot of travelers
C. with an interesting story behind it
D. talked about by both the Japanese and Americans.
42.___________ first came to Hawaii and began to live there ?
A. The Japanese B. Americans
C. The Polynesia people D. The travelers
43. Which of the following does not belong to “the original beauty of Hawaii”
A. White sand beaches B. Waving palm trees
C. Tall hotels D. The Diamond Head Mountain
44. The underlined word canoe is a kind of ________ .
A. tree B. bus C. plane D. boat
45. The last paragraph suggests(暗示出) ______________.
A. The scenery (风景)nowadays is different from the original beauty
B. It is not quite easy to see the original beauty, because some of the scenery is almost hidden by tall hotels
C. The scenery nowadays is unchanged
D.It is difficult to see the original beauty because things have completely changed in the last twenty-five years

Your peers are people your age or close to it. Besides(除……外) close friends, your peers include other children you know who are the same age------like people in your grade, sports team, or neighborhood. Peers may have a positive influence on each other and play an important part in each other’s life.
Peers set plenty of good examples(树立榜样) for each other. Having peers who do well in school or do their best in a sport can influence you to work hard to realize your dream, too. Peers who are kind and friendly can influence you to be kind and friendly in yourself. Even peers you’ve never met can be good models. For example, watching someone as your age compete in the Olympics or give a piano concert might encourage you to go after a dream of your own.
Your peers listen and give you their opinions as you try out new ideas. They can help you make decisions, too: what courses to take, whether to get your hair cut or let it grow, or how to solve a problem. Peers often give each other good advice. Your peers will be quick to tell you when they think you’re making a mistake or doing something dangerous.
Your peers might get you join in clubs, sports, or volunteer groups. Your world would be less rich without peers encouraging you to try some new food for the first time, or listen to a CD you have never heard before.
46.In the first paragraph ,the underlined word “peer” means ______________.
A. 同伴 B.模范 C.榜样 D. 同学

56 like ours, ”Nick said.
Nick’s guests, who had heard their conversation, asked why they should not buy salt more cheaply if they could. Nick replied, ”Why would a man sell salt at a 57 price? Because he was in great need of money. And anyone who took advantage of that situation would not respect (尊重)the sweat(汗水) and struggle of the man who worked very hard to produce it.”
“But such a small thing couldn’t 58 destroy a village.”
“In the beginning, there was only a very small amount of unfairness (不公平)in the world, but everyone 59 a little , always thinking that it was only small and 60 very important , and look where we have ended up today.”

阅读下面短文,根据短文内容,补全表格中所缺的信息。每空最多填写三个单词。
Courage(勇气) is the ability to be brave in different kinds of situation in our life. Here and there, now and then, everyone needs courage to do something well. Courage may make you confident of your success. If you have courage, you will not show fear in face of anything difficult or dangerous. With courage, you may still smile even if you are seriously ill and know you are at the end of your life.
How can we build up our courage?
Believe that you will be successful. Take chances and know that you have your own talents(才能). Besides, your family and friends are always there for you.
Exercise your courage. It can be compared(比较)to a muscle(肌肉). The more we use it, the stronger courage gets.
Know that giving up is not a choice. It’s much easier to give up, and it takes courage to say or do what you think is right, even when other people think you are wrong.
Fight to control your fear. Courageous people may still be afraid, but the difference is that they can control their fear.
They don’t let it hold them back but use it as a reminder of what they can lose if they don’t go on.
Get courage by reading inspiring( 令人鼓舞的) stories of brave people. Abraham Lincoln is one of the people who you may think of.

Less Pressure, Better Life
Hello, boys and girls!
Pressure is a serious problem in today’s world. Students in our class are under too much pressure. Some students can’t get on well with their classmates, while others may worry about their exams. I’m always under pressure, too. My parents want me to be the top student in class. So they send me to all kinds of after-classes at weekends. Last Monday evening, I had a talk with my mother. I told her I was not lazy. I really felt tired. I needed time to relax. My mother agreed with me at last. So I think a conversation with parents is necessary to solve the problem.
That’s all. Thank you!
