Su Hua is studying at Cambridge, UK. She has bought a bicycle and is worried about security. Her friend, Kate, found this article and sent it to her. Introduction A lot of crime is against bicycles. About 150,000 bicycles are stolen every year and most are never found. You can prevent this happening by following a few careful steps. Basic Security Do not leave your bicycle in out-of-the-way places. Always lock your bicycle when you leave. Secure it to lampposts or trees. Take off smaller parts and take them with you, for example lights and saddles(车座). Locks Get a good lock. There are many different types in the shop. Buy one that has been tested against attack. Ask for a recommendation from a bike shop. Marking Security marking your bike can act as a deterrent(威慑) to a thief. It can also help the police find your bicycle. It should be clearly written and include your postcode and your house or flat number. This will provide a simple way to identify your bicycle. Registration There are a number of companies who will mark your bicycle for you. They will then put your registration number and personal details on their computer database. Then if your bicycle is found it will be easy to contact you. Finally Keep a record of the bicycle yourself: its make, model and registration number. You can even take a photograph of it, this will prove the bicycle belongs to you. 小题1:Which part of the article gives you information on how to lock up your bicycle when you leave it?A.Locks | B.Marking | C.Registration | D.Basic Security | 小题2:The article advises you to keep a record of your bicycle ____________.A.in the bike shop and your computer | B.in a police station and security company | C.in a security company and your university | D.by yourself and in a security company | 小题3:Which of the following statements is true?A.More than 150,000 bicycles are stolen every year. | B.Leave your bicycle in out-of-the-way places. | C.Taking a photograph of your bike will help prove the bicycle belongs to you. | D.Always lock your bicycle even if you don’t leave. | 小题4:The main purpose of this article is _____________.A.to tell you what to do if your bicycle is stolen | B.to suggest ways of keeping your bicycle safe | C.to give you advice on where to buy a good lock | D.to say why you shouldn’t keep your bicycle in a quiet place |

When was the last time you were late and expected someone to understand? How about the time you left your dishes on the table for someone else to clean up? Or perhaps you left the lid on the peanut butter jar loose, and the person after you opened the jar to find it dry and not fresh. Often, we are eager to ignore our own faults. But we have higher standards when it comes to our expectations of someone else who has the same expectations. We need to as equally understand the weaknesses of others and excuse them just as we excuse ourselves. Two of my strengths are punctuality(准时) and organization. I like to meet deadlines when they are due and keep the space around my computer neat and orderly. But sometimes things happen, and I slip from being perfect. When this happens, I show myself mercy and lower the standard for myself. However, if someone else makes a mess around my computer, I might not show them as much mercy as I show myself. If it can happen to me, then I should be willing to realize that it can happen to someone else as well. I am not suggesting that we should not work on improving our faults, or that it should be right to be late or leave a mess behind us. Although we should always be working towards self-improvement, we shouldn’t have a double standard that says we are excused from our own mistakes but we cannot excuse someone else. If we are not 100-percent perfect, we shouldn’t expect others to be. Mercy shows an understanding heart. If we are blind to our own faults, we will not be very merciful towards others. Showing a little mercy goes a long way when life’s little mistakes take place. When the tables are turned, showing mercy towards someone’s shortcomings could cause us to receive some in return. 小题1:From the first paragraph we can learn that________________. A.we all make a mess sometimes | B.we all need private space | C.we should accept others’ help with gratitude | D.we should not open the lid on the peanut butter jar | 小题2:How does the author develop the third paragraph? A.By raising questions. | B.By giving examples. | C.By analyzing opinions. | D.By showing research findings | 小题3:The underlined part, “When the tables are turned” in the last paragraph, can be best replaced by____________. A.“When good luck comes” | B.“When benefits increase” | C.“When our mistakes happen” | D.“When the situation is changed” | 小题4:What would be the best title for this passage?A.Changing Bad Daily Habits | B.Excusing Our Own Faults | C.Being Merciful Toward Others | D.Working Toward Self-improvement |

The majority of theme parks have instructions for each ride. Some rides only allow people of a certain height. So make sure you are not too tall or too short before boarding any ride. Also, people with certain diseases or conditions are advised not to go on some rides. Do remember : If you are told not to go on a ride, then DON’T. Do not ride with a bad atomach or if you’ve just eaten.

I was appreciating my family photos on my computer, admiring my two beautiful babies, when I found a disturbing trend: my laptop was in almost all the pictures. There was my daughter, 8 months old, playing at my feet while I was typing away on the couch. There was me and my son, with the laptop at my side as I held him in my arms. I’d heard about the Internet addiction before, but always assumed I was something limited to socially challenged guys who played too much World of Warcraft (a computer game). Now it seemed my Internet “habit” is slowly but surely crossing the line. Sometimes I find myself up at midnight, surfing the Web while my family are sleeping. I read news, keep up with friends and write my blog … just for something to do. It turns out that I’m not the only mama who is addicted to the computer. These moms are contributing to a growing global addiction. There’s a movement among psychiatrists (doctors who specialize in mental diseases) to recognize the Internet addiction as an official mental disorder. And a recent Stanford University national survey found that 14 percent of Internet users find it hard to stay away from it for several days at a time; 9 percent try to hide their “unnecessary Internet use” from their loved ones; 8 percent admit they use the Web as a way to escape problems. You’re likely not the kind of addict who doesn’t bathe and abuses drugs to help her stay “up” for more online time. You may have noticed, though, that going online has become a necessary part of your life, which, at least, means a load of clothes go unwashed. It may also mean you’re missing much time with you baby – something you probably do care about. 小题1:From Paragraph 1, we can conclude that _______.A.the author was busy taking care of her babies | B.the author’s job had something to do with computers | C.the author was not good at taking photos of her babies | D.the author looked after her babies while using the computer. | 小题2:The author used to think that the Internet addiction is ________.A.using the web at midnight | B.keeping up with friends online | C.spending too much time online | D.being addicted to computer games | 小题3:In medical terms, the Internet addiction is ________.A.a personal life habit | B.a way to escape problems | C.an official mental disorder | D.the unnecessary use of the Internet | 小题4:What does the author want to express in the last but one paragraph?A.Many women still can control their online time. | B.The Internet addiction influences housewives’ lives a lot. | C.Going online has become a necessary part of women’s lives. | D.Many people don’t realize that they are addicted to the Internet. |
