      Where we live, on the eastern shore of Maryland, the gentle waters run in and out like fingers slimming at the tips.
     The Canada geese know this place, as do the white swans and the ducks.In autumn, they come home
for the winter.Once or twice each year, snow and frozen rain move into the area.When this happens, if the river is at its narrowest, there is a freeze which hardens the water to ice.
     One morning, a friend of mine set the breakfast table beside the huge window, which overlooked the
Tred Avon River.Suddenly she leaned forward and cried out, "There is a goose out there."
     We saw the figure of a large Canada goose, very still, its wings folded tight to its sides, its feet frozen
into the ice.
     Then from the dark skies, she saw a line of swans.They floated from the top of the sky downward
and at last landed on the ice.My friend was on her feet now, with one hand against her mouth, unbelieving.As the swans surrounded the frozen goose, she feared that life it still had might be pecked(啄) out by
those great swan bills.
     Instead, those bills began to work on the ice.The long necks were lifted and curved down, again and
again.It went on for a long time.At last, the goose"s head was lifted.Its body was pulled.Then the goose
was free and stood on the ice.And the swans stood in the air watching.Then, as if it had cried, "I cannot
fly."Four of the swans came down around it.Their powerful beaks chipped off the ice held in the feathers.
Slowly, the goose spread its wings as far as they would go, and moved slowly into the sky.
     This is a true story.I just think of it in the bad moment, and from it comes only one hopeful question:If
so for birds, why not for man?

1. Which would be the best title for the passage?

A. Why Not for Man?   
B. Graceful Swans
C. Swans" Brave Act    
D. I Just Couldn"t Believe It!

2. What happened to the Canada goose?

A. It was deserted by other geese.    
B. It was stuck in the ice.
C. It was wounded and couldn"t fly.  
D. It was lost in the water.

3. At first the author"s friend was worried that________.

A. the swans would not help the Canada goose
B. she didn"t care about this matter any more
C. the swans wouldn"t identify with the Canada goose
D. the swans would peck the Canada goose to death

4. What did the swans do when they saw the Canada goose couldn"t fly?

A. They chipped off the ice held in its feathers.
B. They waited patiently for the ice held in its feathers to melt.
C. They came down and lifted it up to the sky together.
D. They stayed with it and protected it.

     The rumors had been spreading for months but it still came as a shock when the hospital would be
closing. It had served this poor neighborhood for nearly 100 years but it would close because of the health care crisis.
     The day after the announcement co-workers found out that pretzels(椒盐饼干) had been eliminated.
Soft pretzels are the lifeblood of this city. So losing access to soft pretzels is no small matter.
     A week later, I decided to cheer up my co-workers by picking up some soft pretzels at a local store.
I arrived just as it opened so I was the only customer. But I only had $6 in my wallet. I was working inside a large office at the hospital and knew I"d need more than the half dozen pretzels my six dollars would buy. A man"s voice interrupted my thoughts. "Can I help you?"
     I said, "I only have $6. I"m not sure how many pretzels I need. You see, I work at a hospital and it"s
closing and they stopped selling pretzels." The man"s smile disappeared. "What hospital?" "Oh,
Northeastern Hospital."
     The guy looked deeply shocked. "I used to sell medical supplies and that was one of my hospitals."
Then he turned around and grabbed a box of 25 pretzels and slid them across the counter.
     I was surprised by his generosity and started to reach for my wallet, "Oh I can pay. Please let me …
The guy smiled, "Just tell them Joe Sullivan said to do something nice for someone else."
     And so that day everyone in medical records was treated to a soft pretzel. Word spread fast as people came asking, "Is it really true?" It was as if I"d carried in a box of gold. It mattered to them that a stranger
cared.
1.The underlined word "eliminated" in Paragraph 2 means _____.
A. highly priced

C. overcooked
D. removed
2.Why did the author decide to buy pretzels for his co-workers?
A. To show his generosity.

D. To encourage them to work hard.
3.To buy 25 pretzels, the author should pay ____.

     Few people ever took notice of Mr. Jimmy Tan whenever he entered a room. He was a shy, quiet
and simple man who preferred to keep to himself in public. On the other hand, Mr. Thomas Kim, a
fellow scientist, was a man everyone would notice on the streets. He wore bright outfits with huge flower
prints, spoke with a booming voice, and his laughter could be heard from all corners of a room. In
addition to the differences in their characters, Mr. Kim and Mr. Tan were also great rivals at work in the
Institute of Future Science.
     On Christmas Eve, everyone left work early to celebrate the special occasion, except for Mr. Tan
and Mr. Kim. They were in their laboratory analyzing the results of their latest experiments. Mr. Tan
realized that something special was taking place in his experiment -the bacteria he had cultured were
growing extremely quickly under high pressure and at a very low temperature. After noting down the
findings in his notebook, he left the room to prepare for another round of tests. Shortly after, Mr. Kim
entered.
     "Hey Jimmy," Mr. Kim called out, "do you have an extra copy of the laboratory booking form?"
     There was no reply, so Mr. Kim looked through Mr. Tan"s things. He soon found Mr. Tan"s
notebook and was horrified to see that Mr. Tan had managed to make one of the most important
discoveries in modern science. He then looked into the deep-freeze cupboard where a dish containing
the bacteria was kept. He put them into his pocket and returned to his own laboratory.
     Mr. Tan came back an hour later to find his notebook and the dish missing. He knew that Mr. Kim
had taken them and went to Mr. Kim"s laboratory to find out. When he opened the door, he found Mr.
Kim lying on the floor motionless. His face was pale and his skin had turned black. The deadly bacteria
had been handled improperly. He shook his head and left.

1. From the first paragraph we know Mr. Kim was a quite ___    person.

A. famous
B. hardworking
C. wealthy
D. outgoing

2. The underlined word "rivals" in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to    .

A. enemies
B. colleagues  
C. competitors
D. friends

3. What does the underlined word "them" refer to in the 4th paragraph?

A. the most important discoveries
B. the notebook and the dish
C. the cupboard and the bacteria
D. the dish and the bacteria

4. Which of the following is true according to the passage?

A. Mr. Kim was afraid Mr. Tan might succeed ahead of him.
B. Mr. Tan"s bacteria grew very fast in a warm container.
C. Mr. Tan worked much harder than Mr. Kim.
D. Mr. Kim was so tired that he fell down into sleep.

5. What happened to Mr. Kim in the end?

A. He died on Christmas Eve.
B. He was arrested by the police.
C. He shared the success with Mr. Tan.
D. He succeeded ahead of Mr. Tan.
