阅读理解。     Having a part-time job is an important part of growing up for American teenagers. It can teach them
important skills that will be useful for the rest of their lives. And many teenagers find that making their own
money gives them a sense of pride and freedom.
     American teenagers are allowed to do part-time jobs at the age of 14. During the school year, teenagers
may go to work a few times a week after school, and work for longer at weekends.
     In summer, top part-time jobs for teenagers include at camps, swimming pools and amusement parks.
These jobs are great for those who want to be active and have fun while making money.
     Some of the most stressful jobs include teaching, nursing, and police work. These skills help to prepare
teenagers for their later lives. When they grow up, the students with work experience are more likely to
succeed than those without work experience.
     A favorite job for many teenagers is babysitting, and they can start before the age of 14 if their parents
agree. As long as they stay in the house and make sure the kids are okay, babysitters can do their homework,
watch TV, or talk on the phone with friends. After the kids go to bed and before the parents come home,
babysitters have lots of freedom.
     It can be stressful to balance school, homework, and a part-time job. However, many American teenagers
value their work experience and the skills they get from the job. 1. Why do American teenagers like to have a part-time job? A. Because they don"t want to be stressed out.
B. Because they can learn skills and get money.
C. Because they can get a good job in the future.
D. Because they can do anything they like. 2. Which kind of part-time job is less stressful for American teenagers?A. Working at police.
B. Nursing
C. Working at camps.
D. Teaching. 3. Which kind of part-time job can a 13-year-old girl do in America? A. Working at parks.
B. Working at a swimming pool.
C. Looking after babies.
D. Doing the dishes in a restaurant. 4. What"s the meaning of the underlined word "value"? A. 喜欢
B. 追求
C. 向往
D. 珍视

阅读理解。     "You know, these cups brings to my mind a story I heard," Mary said to her students.
      She poured some tea. There were four of them and there were four completely different cups on the
tables.
     "I heard there was a teacher who took all his students for tea. His students were surprised that all the
cups on the table were different. They all took a cup and started drinking their tea, each looking at the cups
of others. The teacher said, "Did you notice your behavior? You are all looking at each other"s tea cup and
some of you even envy (羡慕) the finer cups of others."
     "I put the different cups here on purpose. I want to say life is like this tea. You all have the same thing in
your cups--tea. And yet you cannot truly enjoy it in your envy of another"s cup. You forget to enjoy your own
life when you envy someone else"s life. We all have the same thing--life. We should care more about the tastes
of your own life. So now, taste your own tea. Does it matter from which cup it came from?" Mary finished
telling her story and her students all sat in silence for a while, enjoying their tea. And it really did not matter
a bit from which teacup they drank. 1. Which of the following statement is TRUE? A. All of the students had the same kind of cups.
B. One of the cups is different from others.
C. All of the cups were filled with the same tea.
D. There was different tea in different cups. 2. What should we learn from the story? A. Envy others and make progress.
B. All the lives are the same.
C. Work hard and catch up with others.
D. Try to enjoy your own life. 3. Which is the best title for the story? A. More than tea in a cup
B. The same cups, the same tea
C. The taste of the tea
D. Different cups, different tea
