After the earthquake hit northeast Japan on March 11, 2011, many moving stories that I saw with my own eyes happened around me. I had to walk home since all the had stopped after the quake. On my way home I an old Japanese lady at the bakery shop who was giving out free bread, which made my heart . A middle-aged Japanese man was holding a sign that said, “Please use our .” He was opening his house for people to go to the restroom. My friend wanted to help others. He stood in the cold with a sign “If you are okay with a motorcycle, I will you to your house.” And then I saw him take one gentleman home, all the way to faraway place! Then the next day I drove to my car with gas. There is a lack(缺乏)gas (汽油)now and many gasoline stations were either closed or had very lines. I got worried, since I was behind 15 cars. Finally, when it was my , the man smiled and said, “ this situation, we are only giving $ 30 worth gas per person. Is that alright?” “Of course, I’m just glad that we are all able to ,” I said. His smile gave me so much comfort. I saw a man at the evacuation(疏散) center when people brought food to him, It was the first time in three days that food has been brought to their center. However, after he wiped the tears, his next surprised me. “I am very that we are provided with food. But people in the city next to us haven’t any food at all. Please go to that centre as well.” And when hearing that, I realized there is a bright future on the other side of this .

One of the best-known American writers of children"s books is Alfred Strong, or Doctor Strong, as he is better known to readers everywhere. Now, an art show called "Doctor Strong From Then to Now" is travelling around the United States. The pictures and drawings show the history of Doctor Strong. Doctor Strong first became famous almost fifty years ago when his first children"s book was published(出版). Since then, he has written forty-five books that have been sold more than one hundred million copies around the world. Doctor Strong"s books are known for their easy use of words and colorful, hand-drawn pictures. These drawings bring life to his imaginary creatures. The Cat in the Hat, Horton the Elephant, The Grinch Who Stole Christmas, and hundreds of others. The San Diego Museum, in California, organized the art show. It included about three hundred Doctor Strong"s early drawings and some of his writings. Most of Doctor Strong"s books, although written in a funny way, have serious messages. For example, in McElligot"s Pool, he describes the danger of pollution. He discusses the arms race(军备竞赛) in The Butter Battle Book, written in nineteen eighty-four.

Legend has it that an apple which fell from its branches was the inspiration for Sir Isaac Newton’s discovery of gravity(引力). But now history’s famous fruit tree is paying the price of fame. The thousands of visitors drawn to Sir Isaac’s childhood home each year could be damaging the tree. A willow barrier(围栏)has been put around the tree. It means visitors to the 17th century Woolsthorpe Manor, near Grantham, Lincolnshire, will no longer be able to sit under its branches as Newton was said to have been doing in 1665 when “the notion of gravitation came to mind.” The National Trust, which owns the small manor(庄园)where Newton was born in 1642, said the 2ft-high barrier was designed to preserve the tree. Official Ann Moynihan said there had been no damage so far but warned that there could soon be a problem.“Visitor numbers have gone up by around 50 percent, to 33,000 a year in three years. The more people who visit, the more the earth will become compacted(压实) around the tree and over the roots. We just want to preserve the tree for another 400 years if we can.”She said visitors will still be able to take apples from the tree. Visitor Chris Gwyther,37,said,“I suppose it is a pity that you can’t sit under the tree like Newton. But you can still see it and the tree is 400 years old, it needs saving for the future.” Newton left no information saying he had been inspired by a falling apple. The story appeared in a book by French philosopher Voltaire published in 1727, the year Newton died at the age of 84. 小题1:Why do people go to Woolsthorpe Manor to see the apple tree?A.Because of the story about the apple tree. | B.Because of the long history of the apple tree. | C.Because of the sweetness of the apple. | D.Because of the unusual flower of the apple tree. | 小题2:What is the reason that people can’t sit under the tree like Newton?A.The manor is too crowded to sit around. | B.Their heads will be hit by the apples. | C.A willow barrier has been put around the tree. | D.There is something wrong with the apple tree. | 小题3:The underlined word preserve means “_____”.A.keep something safe | B.make something grow | C.leave something as it is | D.let something be | 小题4:When did Newton have the inspiration for the discovery of gravity?A.In 1642. | B.In 1665. | C.In 1820. | D.In 1727. | 小题5:Which of the following sentences is true?A.Newton himself wrote a letter about the story of the apple tree. | B.Newton’s family owes Woolsthorpe Manor and tells the story. | C.Visitor numbers have gone up to 32,000 every year. | D.A French philosopher wrote the apple tree story in a book. |

There was a man who had a little boy that he loved very much. Every day after work the man would come home and play with the little boy. He would always spend all of his free time playing with the little boy. One night, while the man was at work, he realized that he had some work to do for the evening, and he couldn’t play with his little boy. But he wanted to give the boy something to keep him busy. Then he saw a magazine with a large map of the world on the cover. He got an idea. He removed the map, and then tore (撕) it up into small pieces. Then he put all the pieces in his pocket. When he got home, the little boy was ready to play with his dad. The man said he had work to do and couldn"t play just now, but he took out all the pieces of the map and spread (撒)them on the table. He said it was a map of the world, and by the time he could put it back together, his work would be finished, and they could then play. About half an hour later the boy came to the man and said, "Okay, it"s finished. Can we play now?"The man was surprised, saying, "That"s impossible. Let"s go see." And sure enough, there was the picture of the world; all put together, every piece in its place. The man said, "That"s amazing! How did you do that?" The boy said, "It was simple.

Peter didn’t know why he didn’t have many friends. The reason was he was always taking, never giving. One day Peter told Bill, “I’d like to give a party on Saturday, I’d like you to come and bring Martha, too.” “Thanks, Peter. We’d be happy to come.” “Perhaps you’d like to bring your violin. You and Martha sing well together. I’m sure everyone will want you to sing for us.” That was how Peter began to plan his party.
