Monday: Here I am, in the middle of nowhere. This camping trip idea is not getting off to a very good start. It’s raining and the tent leaks (漏). The hiking seemed to take forever, and I still can’t understand how it could all have been up hill! How did I ever let my brother persuade me into doing this? When we get home—if we ever get home—he’s going to have to do something great to get back on my good side. Maybe he should sponsor (赞助) a shopping spree（狂购）at the mall!
Tuesday: Things are looking up. The sun came out today, so we were able to leave the tents and dry out. We’re camped at the edge of a small lake that I couldn’t see before because of the rain and fog. The mountains are all around us, and the forest is absolutely beautiful. We spent most of the day dragging out everything out of our backpacks or tents and putting it where the sun could dry it out. Later in the afternoon we tried to catch the fish for dinner, but the fish were smarter than we were. At night we built a fire and sang songs happily.
Wednesday: We hiked to the far side of the lake and climbed to the top of a small peak. From there we could see how high the other mountains were and how far the forest spread around us. On the way up we passed through a snowfield!
Thursday: I caught my first fish! We followed the stream that fed the lake. After about two miles, we came to a section (区域) that Carol said looked “fishy”. She had a pack rod (竿) , which can be carried in a backpack. I asked to cast (投掷) it, and I caught a fish on my first try. Carol caught a few more. But they were just too pretty to eat for lunch, so we put them back in the stream.
Friday: I can’t believe we are going home already. It will be nice to get a hot shower, sleep in a real bed, and eat junk food, but the trip has been wonderful. We’re already talking about another camping adventure next year where we canoe (乘独木舟) down a river. It’s hard to believe, but I think this city girl has a little country blood in her veins.
小题1:The writer went on this camping trip because ____________．| A．she enjoyed camping. | B．she wanted to go fishing. | | C．she was influenced by her brother. | D．she was tired of staying home. |
小题2: The whole morning of Tuesday, the writer ____________．| A．hiked along the lake. | B．dried out her belongings. | | C．climbed the mountain. | D．caught the fish for dinner. |

小题4: It is likely that the writer will ____________．| A．go on another camping trip. | | B．invite Carol to go fishing together. | | C．make her brother buy her something. | | D．persuade her brother to go camping. |

71 Because, from what I could see, it seemed that grown-ups often forgot. I never wanted to forget --- I wanted to be able to remind other adults and myself when the time came. I began consciously(有意识地) thinking this at quite an early age.
As soon as I was fully aware (意识到) of myself, I regarded me as a little person and liked adults who thought of and treated me the same way. I didn’t have a doll and I didn’t want one. I wanted animal toys, even a single animal. Why wouldn’t my parents give me the one thing I wanted? 72
Instead, my dad somehow managed to buy me a full set of encyclopedia(百科全书) and books with maps and color pictures long before I could read. Well, guess what? I learned to read without realizing it! Later, I found out when I started school and it all came so easy especially geography. 73 Because of all the books my father bought me, I knew a lot of words that other children didn’t know at my age.
I love words. They opened up new worlds for me. 74 Parents, please make sure your kids have a computer. Let them explore — as safely as possible— let them do their own things and discover the world.
Now, most kids lead a happy life. They can get what they want from their parents. But children should learn to be independent. 75 Be independent to do your own things.| A．Because of them, I read and thought, and today, I write. | | B．When I was a child, I promised myself to try to remember as much as I could. | | C．I listened and heard everything, even if I didn’t understand everything. | | D．I nearly knew every place on the map like the teacher. |
E. But more than anything, it made me feel uncomfortable and I knew it wasn’t nice.
F. Later, I knew we didn’t have much money, but how expensive could a toy be?
G. Be independent to learn some useful knowledge. |
Uncertainty spreads through our lives so thoroughly that it dominates our language. Our everyday speech is made up in large part of words like probably, many, soon, great, little. What do these words mean?Such verbal expression is not necessarily to be criticized. Indeed, it has a value just because it allows us to express judgments when a precise quantitative statement is out of the question.
We have been trying to pin down by experiments what people mean by these expressions in specific contexts, and how the meanings change with age. For instance, a subject is told “There are many trees in the park” and is asked to say what number the word many mean to him. Or a child is invited to take “some” sweets from a bowl and we then count how many he has taken. We compare the number he takes when he is alone with the number when one or more other children are present and are to take some sweets after him, or with the number he takes when told to give “some” sweets to another child.
First, we find that the number depends, of course, on the items involved. To most people some friends means about five, while some trees means about twenty. However, unrelated areas sometimes show parallel values. For instance, the language of probability seems to mean about the same thing in predictions about the weather and about politics: the expression “is certain to” (rain, or be elected) signifies to the average person about a 70 percent chance; “is likely to”, about a 60 percent chance; “probably will” about 55 percent.
Secondly, the size of the population of items influences the value assigned to an expression. Thus, if we tell a subject to take “a few” or “ a lot of” glass balls from a box, he will take more if the box contains a large number of glass balls than if it has a small number. But not proportionately more: if we increase the number of glass balls eight times, the subject takes only half as large a percentage of the total.
Thirdly, there is a marked change with age. Among children between six and fourteen years old, the older the child, the fewer glass balls he will take. But the difference between a lot and a few widens with age. This age effect is so consistent that it might be used as a test of intelligence.
小题1: What’s the right attitude towards the words like probably, many, soon?| A．They are inaccurate and we should avoid them. | | B．They are necessary since we cannot be always precise. | | C．They should be criticized because there are too many of them. | | D．Their value is not yet clear since we don’t know their meaning. |
小题2: Why do we do experiments with the words “many” and “some”?| A．To prove people are insensitive to these words. | | B．To prove the words dominate our everyday speech. | | C．To find out how the meanings vary with age and contexts. | | D．To find out whether the words can mean a precise quantity. |
小题3: Which of the expressions means a larger chance in weather broadcast?| A．Possible | B．Probable | C．Be likely to | D．Be certain to |
小题4: Which of the following will least definitely influence the number of items a kid takes out of a box when he is invited to take “some”?| A．Whether the quantity of items is large or small. | | B．Whether the items are candies or toys. | | C．Whether the kid is a toddler or a youngster. | | D．Whether the kid is alone or accompanied by other children. |
小题5: What will tell us about the intelligence of a child?| A．The consistency of picking up a certain glass ball. | | B．How many glass balls he will take when he’s asked to. | | C．The difference between a lot and a few when he takes glass balls. | | D．Whether there are marked changes in his first pick and second one. |

This little story I’m about to tell you happened when I was 11 years old, and I’ll never forget it.
It was at my friend Jenny’s house after 36 one day, and we were doing our homework. While I was there, a friend of Jenny’s mom came over to 37. I didn’t know her name or 38 what her face looked like. I just 39 her hands, her voice and the lesson I 40 from her.
I can’t forget that she 41 her hands to introduce herself. It was so 42, I thought, rich fine skin; then I heard her saying, “Oh no, that is not 43 you shake hands. Let me teach you.” She didn’t do that at all in a condescending (屈尊的) manner. 44 that, I just remember her voice explaining the 45 of a good handshake of conveying (传达) a 46 sense of self-belief, of looking the other person in the eyes, and of making a warm 47. Hearing her friendly words, I first understand what being 48 meant.
I admired her for 49 time to teach me about one of the important things in life. I was grateful for her not talking down to me 50 I was 11 and didn’t know much. I also felt somewhat admired by the way she 51 me. It felt good to be talked to as a(n) 52, rather than as an 11-year-old child. I also 53 her telling me that if someone isn’t aware of something you should show him or her the right direction; don’t be afraid to 54 your knowledge.
I think of her every time I meet someone 55, and I’m so thankful for her little lesson.

Apollo 11, carrying Neil Armstrong, Edwin Aldrin and Michael Collins, was launched on 16 July, 1969. Five days later they stepped down onto the moon.
Neil Armstrong
On the way there: Of all the wonderful views we had, the most impressive to me was on the way to the Moon when we flew through its shadow. We were still thousands of miles away, but close enough so that the Moon almost filled our window. The moon appeared blue-grey. It seemed almost as if it were showing us its roundness, its similarity in shape to our Earth, in a sort of welcome. I was sure it would be a hospitable（好客的） host. It had been waiting for its first visitors for a long time.
After touch down: The sky is black, you know. It’s a very dark sky, but it still seemed more like daylight than darkness as we looked out the window. It’s a very strange thing but the surface looked very warm and inviting. It seemed to be tan(棕褐色). It’s hard to explain that, because later when I held the material in my hand, it wasn’t tan at all. It was black, grey and so on.
Edwin Aldrin
On the Moon: The blue color of my boots has completely disappeared now into this soil—still don’t know what color to describe this other than grayish(灰色的) cocoa.
Back on board: The moon was a very natural and pleasant environment in which to work. On the Moon, in one-sixth gravity, you have a strong feeling of being somewhere. As we did our experiments, some objects we threw away would go in a slow, lazy manner.
小题1:What impressed Neil Armstrong most?| A．The moon filling their window. | | B．Seeing the shape of the moon | | C．Flying through the shadow of the moon. | | D．The five—day flight to the moon. |
小题2:What did Armstrong find very strange on the moon?| A．The color of the sky. | B．The surface of the moon | | C．The gravity on the moon. | D．The daylight on the moon. |
小题3:Edward Aldrin described the soil as ________.| A．tan | B．gray | C．black | D．grayish cocoa. |
小题4:What can be said about Edward Aldrin? | A．He landed on the moon alone. | | B．He was sent to the moon by Apollo 11. | | C．He didn’t notice the gravity of the moon. | | D．He found it impossible to work on the moon. |

Beginning college is exciting: new ideas to explore, new challenges to meet and many decisions to make．Your future begins here．
However, you will find college life is different from your previous school environment. Many of us can be easily overwhelmed（压垮）by the details of running a well-balanced life．While some of us may have the know-how, I guess there are more of us who can benefit from learning about the experiences of others who have walked the college halls before you．
The following you may find of use about life on campus．
* Plan well．There are so many new things to do at a new college or university．Give yourself time to make new friends and become familiar with the campus, but don’t forget why you are there．Give some time for social activities and manage your time wisely．
* If you don’t have a “system” for planning your time now（like a day timer, a computer data book）, get one．Most of all, don’t depend on your memory．
* Don’t miss the guidelines．The restrictions, rules and regulations of all kinds can usually be found in your student handbook．Consider them well-balanced food for thought．What dates are important? What pieces of paper need to be handed in? What can/ can’t you do in class? What can/ can’t you do in your student residence? Who has right for what? What do you need to complete to graduate?
* Write the word “STUDY” on the walls of our bedroom and bathroom, and maybe it will help to write it on a piece of paper and stick it on the telephone, TV and the kitchen table．Consider this—you are paying thousands of dollars for your courses. You pay every time you have to repeat or replace a course．
* Build your identity．This is the time for you to decide what to do and what not to do．Take as much time as you need to explore new ideas．Do not be afraid of the beyond．This is learning to make good choices．
小题1:What is the main purpose of the passage?| A．To describe the importance of college life． | | B．To explain why college life is exciting． | | C．To offer advice on college life． | | D．To persuade you to go to college． |
小题2:According to the passage, why is it exciting to begin college life?| A．Because you prepare for your future career and life there．． | | B．Because you will no longer be afraid of the beyond． | | C．Because you will have more freedom at college． | | D．Because professors there will provide you with many new ideas． |
小题3:The underlined word “know-how” refers to___________________________．| A．an understanding of how things are going at college | | B．college halls where rules and regulations are presented | | C．practical knowledge about how to behave and what to do at college | | D．an environment completely different from the one you’re used to |
小题4:According to the passage, college students ___________________________ ．| A．needn’t learn from those who went to college before them | | B．should know what they have fought for on campus | | C．spend as much time as possible on social activities | | D．are supposed to repeat or replace at least one course |
