(A)
Some people have to use public transport, some dislike it and some still love it. If everyone has a car and drives anywhere they want to go, there will be serious traffic problems on the road. Luckily, trains are a good form of public transport.
British people use trains a lot. This is especially so for people who are travelling from London to Paris. Every day about 20 trains leave London. They travel at high speed and people feel glad that the trains take only 2 hours and 30 minutes to reach Paris. It's much faster to travel by train than by bus or by car. This is because people have to drive cars or buses very carefully and slowly for many reasons. such as speed limits and traffic jams. However, when you are travelling by train, the speed is almost the same and there is no traffic jam for a train.
Besides, Londoners think taking a train is one of the safest ways of travelling on the
8
ground. Trains take quite a number of quality tests while they are made. More importantly, they have to take many safety checks before they are used on the rail track (轨道).
What's more, trains in Britain are comfortable and provide fine services for their users. When you are on a London train, you will find that the train has comfortable tables and seats where people can sit. They also provide food services and powerplugs (电源插头) for personal computers or mobile phones.

A man once said how useless it was to put advertisements in newspapers. “Last week,” said the man, “my umbrella was stolen(偷)from a London church. As it was a gift, I spent twice its worth（价值）in advertising, but I didn't get it back."
“How did you write your advertisement"' asked one of the listeners, a merchant（商人）．
“Here it is." said the man, taking out a piece of paper from a newspaper. The merchant took it and read. "Lost from the City Church last Sunday, a black silk umbrella. The gentleman who finds it will receive ten pounds on leaving it at No.5 Broad Street."
"Now," said the merchant, “I often advertise, and find that it pays me well. But the way in which an advertisement is expressed is very important. Let me write one for your umbrella, and if it fails, I'll buy you a new one." The merchant then took out a piece of paper and wrote: "If the man who was seen taking an umbrella from the City Church last Sunday, doesn't wish to get into trouble, he will return the umbrella to No.5 Broad Street. He is well-known.”
This appeared in the newspaper, and the following morning, the man was surprised when he opened the door. In the doorway lay twelve umbrellas of all sizes and colors, and his own was among them. Many had notes with them saying that they had been taken by mistake, and begging(乞求)the loser not to say anything about the matter.

C
Luke almost always keeps his brown eyes on his owner Kathy. When she raises her right thumb (大拇指), Luke knows he’s been good. When Kathy holds her right hand in front of Luke, he sits. Kathy uses hand signals(手势) to train Luke because he cannot hear.
Training a deaf dog can take more time than teaching a hearing dog. An owner must use signs to give commands (命令). Some owners use American Sign Language, and others make up their own signs. Like hearing dogs, deaf dogs should first learn to sit, lie down, stay, come, and stop. Other commands can then be added one at a time. Luke is just one year old, and he knows 20 commands!
To get Luke’s attention in the house, Kathy stomps (跺) her foot. Outdoors, during daylight hours, Kathy waves at Luke until he notices her. If Luke is in the backyard at night, Kathy calls him by turning the porch light off and on. Luke also wears a bell so that Kathy can know where he is.
It’s also important to know how to wake up a deaf dog. To wake Luke, Kathy holds her hand in front of his nose. She lets her smell wake him up so that he won’t be frightened. If Luke is sleeping when people visit, Kathy asks them not to wake him.
Like most deaf dogs, Luke gets nervous if he doesn’t know where his owner is. He’ll walk with quiet steps from room to room, looking for Kathy. Before leaving a room, Kathy makes sure to get Luke’s attention. Sometimes Luke follows her, but other times he just sighs and goes back to sleep.
Kathy and Luke spend about 15 minutes every day working on old and new commands. With his tail wagging (摇摆) and nose wiggling, Luke looks as if he’s playing instead of
8
working.
( 1)41. This article is mainly about__________ .
A. how to use hand signals B. training a deaf dog
C. how to look after deaf dogs D. American Sign Language
( 12. Kathy gives commands to Luke by__________.
A. raising her right thumb B. speaking to him
C. holding her right hand D. using hand signals
( )13. Why does Kathy blink (使……忽闪忽灭) the porch light at night?
A. To see who is at the door. B. To have fun with Luke.
C. To get Luke’s attention. D. To call Luke for dinner.
( )14. Kathy holds her hand in front of Luke’s nose to tell him “__________!”
A. Come here B. Stay at home C. Stop that D. Wake up
( )15. From the underlined sentence, we can learn that__________.
A. Luke enjoys learning commands B. Luke doesn’t work very hard
C. Training Luke is not an easy job D. Luke is a naughty(调皮的) dog

Every teenager wants to be cool in middle school. But how to be cool in middle school!
Firstly, you need to try to look good. Though no one should judge (判断) a book by its cover, it is also true that if you know how to look cool in middle school, then half your work is already done. For this, take good care of you own image, do not wear dirty clothes, wear suitable clothes, and often have a smile on your face.
Secondly, make friends. Friends are people you can trust. They will help you in time of need. So, from the countless faces you see every day, find out those who can be your
8
true friends. And once you have them, you must hold your friendship. However, don’t miss those who you have met but do not know well. Knowing new people is one of the most fun things to do in middle school!
Thirdly, be a nice person. You need a reputation (名声)that will make people think you are cool. You can smile at other students on the playground, or help out those who are in trouble. By doing this, you get into the good books of people. Then the word spreads around that you are a cool person.
Fourthly, you should be responsible. You need to be a good judge of what is right and what is wrong, and be able to make the right decision. Doing something just because “everyone else is doing it” simply does not make sense. As a teenager, you can have all the fun you want, but don’t be at the cost of your grades, your self-respect or your honesty as a person.
Finally, trying to be cool in middle school is right, but do not lose yourself for that. Trying to be someone you are not is the worst thing to do. So just be yourself, show some respect, be sincere, and you will surely be cool in school!
