     Mr. Samson was a newspaper editor in Boston, America. On the night of August 28, 1988, when he was
on night duty, he dreamed that a volcano (火山) near the Island of Java erupted (爆发), and that the local
people were buried under lava (熔岩).
    When he woke up from the bad dream with a start, he thought it was very interesting material, so he wrote
it down on a piece of paper, left it on the desk and went home. Early in the morning, the editor-in-chief came
to work and saw the paper. He took it for the latest news that something important had happened last night and
published it immediately. Only later did he find out it was just about what Mr. Samson had seen in his dream.
But it was all too late because the newspaper had already been delivered (传送). And it caused a great panic.
     In no time the editors met to discuss the serious problem. They finally decided to make an apology in the
newspaper. Just at that time word came that a volcano on a small Island between Java and Sumatra did erupt.

     A good friend of mine lives with six hundred wild animals on a Greek island. Ever since he left school
(where I first knew him)he has traveled all over the world collecting animals for his very own zoo. He hoped
to collect two examples of every kind of animal on his island, like Noah before the Great Flood. But the flood
that my friend was afraid of, was a flood not of water, but of people. I think you have heard of my friend; he
writes books about his travels, and about the wild and wonderful animals that he collects. The money from the
books helps to pay for all the food that these animals eat.
     My friend told me that when he was out looking for water last week (there is not enough water on the
island, though there is plenty all round it), he found oil. He needs money for his travels, and for his zoo, and a
little oil would buy enough water for all his life; but he knows that if he tells anybody else about it, it will be the
end of his zoo, and his life"s work.
     I know my friend,he will not tell anybody (except you and me) about what he found-because oil and water
do not mix.

1. My friend is afraid of _____.

[ ]

A. a great flood
B. too many people
C. a lot of animals
D. a great deal of oil

2. How does he get money for his animals "food"?

[ ]

A. He travels all over the world to collect money.
B. He sells oil on the island.
C. He writes books and sells them.
D. He shows his animals to people

3. My friend knows oil and water do not mix. He knows that _____.

[ ]

A. he can"t mix oil with water
B. he won"t get water if people come to look for oil
C. he won"t find water and oil in the same place
D. he can"t have both money and the zoo

      James shook his money box again. Nothing! He carefully   1   the coins that lay on the bed.＄24. 52 was
all that he had. The bicycle he wanted was at least＄90!   2   on earth was he going to get the   3   of the
money?
     He knew that his friends all had bicycles. It was   4 to hang around with people when you were the only
one without wheels. He thought about what he could do. There was no   5   asking his parents, for he knew t
hey had no money to   6 .
     There was only one way to get money, and that was to   7   it. He would have to find a job.   8   who
would hire him and what could he do? He decided to ask Mr. Clay for advice, who usually had   9   on most
things.
      "Well, you can start right here," said Mr. Clay. "My windows need cleaning and my car needs washing."
      That was the  10  of James" s odd-job (零工) business. For three months he worked every day after
finishing his homework. He was amazed by the variety (多样化) of  11  that people found for him to do. He
took dogs and babies for walks, cleared out cupboards, and mended books. He lost count of the  12  of cars
he washed and windows he cleaned, but the  13  increased and he knew that he would soon have  14  for the
bicycle he longed for.
    The day  15  came when James counted his money and found＄94. 32. He  16  no time and went down
to the shop to pick up the bicycle he wanted. He rode  17  home, looking forward to showing his new bicycle
to his friends. It had been hard  18  for the money, but James knew that he valued his bicycle far more  19  he
had bought it with his own money. He had  20  what he thought was impossible, and that was worth even
more than the bicycle.
