What is the hottest topic at your school recently? In Hangzhou Yongjin Middle School, it"s money.
The school held an activity called "making money" last weekend. About 200 Junior 1 and Junior 2
students were divided into 30 teams. They went out ________________. What did they choose to sell?
Some sold newspapers；some chose bottled water；some sold environmentally friendly shopping bags
and bamboo baskets.
Hu Qing"s team decided to sell some useful books in front of the Children Activity Center. They thought parents would like to buy the books for their children. But unfortunately, they met urban management
officers. The officers asked them to leave. "We played hideandseek with the officers for the whole
morning, " said Hu. "Finally we had to give up."
Wang Bing and her team sold ice cream in a square. They didn"t meet any officers. But few people
were interested in what they were selling. The team then put up a board saying "For Country Kids". It
worked. More people came to their stall(小摊). A foreigner even gave them 100 yuan. "He didn" t want
any change. He said he wanted to help the children, " said Wang. "We were touched." Later that day they gave the 100 yuan and more to the "Project Hope" office.
Meng Zhaoxiang and his team were luckier. They sold all their cakes in four hours, spending 39.5 yuan and getting back 80 yuan. They made 40.5 yuan. "It was not easy to make the money, " said Meng.

Every culture has a recognized point when a child becomes an adult, when rules must be followed and
tests passed.
In China, although teenagers can get their ID cards at 16, many only see themselves as an adult when
they are 18. In the US, where everyone drives, the main step to the freedom of adult life is learning to
drive. At 16, American teens take their driving test. When they have their license, they drive into the
grownup world.
"Nobody wants to ride the cheese bus to school," said Eleanor Fulham, 17. She brought the pressure
back to memory, especially for kids from wealthier families. "It"s like you"re not cool if you don"t have a
car," she said.
According to recent research, 41% of 16 to 19yearolds in the US own cars, up from 23% in 1985.
Although, most of these cars are bought by parents, some teens get parttime jobs to help pay.
Not all families can afford cars for their children. In cities with subways and limited parking, some
teenagers don"t want them. But in rich suburban areas without subways, and where bicycles are more for
fun than transportation, it is strange for a teenager not to have a car.
But police say 16yearolds have almost three times more accidents than 18 to 19yearolds. This has
made many parents pause before letting their kids drive.
Julie Sussman, of Virginia, decided that her son Chad, 15, will wait until he is 17 to apply for his
learner"s permit.
Chad said he has accepted his parents" decision, although it has caused some teasing from his friends. "They say that I am unlucky," he said, "But I"d rather be alive than driving, and I_don"t_really_trust_my_
friends_on_the_road,_either."
In China as more families get cars, more 18yearolds learn to drive. Will this become a big step to
becoming an adult?
1. Which may serve as the best title of the article?
A. Cars Helping You to GrowUp
B. Driving into the GrownUp World
C. Teenagers" Driving in America
D. Recognized Point of Becoming an Adult
2. 16yearold drivers have more accidents possibly because________.
A. they want to show themselves off
B. they are never experienced drivers
C. older people always drive better
D. they never drive carefully on the road
3. Which may NOT be taken into consideration when deciding whether to buy a car?
A. How well off the family is.
B. Whether the kid is old enough.
C. What traffic condition there is around.
D. Whether it"s practically needed.
4. When Chad said "I don"t really trust my friends…", he meant that________.
A. he might run into his friends if he drove
B. he didn"t agree with his friends
C. he might not be safe if his friends drove
D. he was afraid that his friends might well lie to him
5. The passage mainly gives information about ________.
A. an American culture
B. a cultural difference between America and China

D. the relationship between driving and a person"s development |

I"m usually fairly skeptical about any research that concludes that people are either happier or unhappier or more or less certain of themselves than they were 50 years ago. While any of these statements might be true, they are practically impossible to prove scientifically. Still, I was struck by a report which concluded
that today"s children are significantly more anxious than children in the 1950s. In fact, the analysis showed, normal children aged 9 to 17 exhibit a higher level of anxiety today than children who were treated for
mental illness 50 years ago.
Why are America"s kids so stressed? The report cites two main causes: increasing physical isolation
(隔离) brought on by high divorce rates and less involvement in community, among other things and a
growing perception that the world is a more dangerous place.
Considering that we_can"t_turn_the_clock_back,_adults can still do plenty to help the next generation.
At the top of the list is nurturing(培育) a better appreciation of the limits of individualism. No child is an island. Strengthening social ties helps build communities and protect individuals against stress.
To help kids build stronger connections with others, you can pull the plug on TVs and computers. Your family will thank you later. They will have more time for facetoface relationships, and they will get more
sleep.
Limit the amount of virtual(虚拟的) violence your children are exposed to. It"s not just video games and movies; children see a lot of murder and crime on the local news.
Keep your expectations for your children reasonable. Many highly successful people never attended
Harvard or Yale.
Make exercise part of your daily routine. It will help you cope with your own anxieties and provide a
good model for your kids. Sometimes anxiety is unavoidable. But it doesn"t have to ruin your life.
1. According to the analysis, compared with normal children today, children treated as mentally ill 50 years ago ________.
A. probably suffered less from anxiety
B. were considered less individualistic
C. were less isolated physically
D. were probably less selfcentered
2. What does the author mean by saying "we can"t turn the clock back" in the third paragraph?
A. It"s impossible to forget the past.
B. The social reality children are facing cannot be forgotten.
C. It"s impossible to slow down the pace of change.
D. Lessons learned from the past should not be forgotten.
3. The author thinks that the conclusions of any research about people"s state of mind are ________.
A. illogical
B. confusing
C. surprising
D. questionable
4. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A. To children, anxiety is completely avoidable.
B. TV and computer play an important role in isolating children from the real world.
C. Exercise does not help to lessen children"s anxiety.
D. Sometimes local news about crime and murder also affects children a little.
5. The first and most important thing parents should do to help their children is________.
A. to lower their expectations for them
B. to set a good model for them to follow
C. to get them more involved socially
D. to improve them with a safer environment |

As the global financial crisis hits the economy, it"s tough finding a job-especially if you"re competing with thousands of other hopeful students. Sometimes you get the interview, but don"t quite seem to land the job because you don"t have related experience. Don"t despair! Here are a few tips that might give you an edge.
★Get connected to your network and try to expand it. Talk to friends, family and acquaintances. Let
everyone know you are looking for a job.
★Prepare your resume (个人简历) carefully and be sure it"s perfect. Have someone else read it over
for typos (打字错误) and grammatical errors. Get professional help. It"s worth the money to present yourself well. If money is tight, read books on resume writing from your public library or search for free help on
the Internet.
★When you apply for a job, be sure you match and list any skills listed on the posting with the skills
you have. If you get an interview, be sure to describe those skills thoroughly. Just having the skills is not
enough. Expressing your abilities well can make all the difference in getting the job.
★Research typical interview questions and practice interviewing. Be well prepared for every interview.
★Don"t be afraid to accept a position for which you are overqualified-if there"s room for
advancements. Many great job advancements come from first doing well at an entrylevel position. If you
have the right skills and attitude, it won"t be long before you"re in the job you want.
★Volunteer for a few weeks in your field of study to gain experience if you feel your resume needs an
improvement.

Boys need friends, suffer when they don"t believe they have any, and worry over the ups and downs of relationships. Many adults believe that somehow boys need friends less than girls do, in truth, though, no
boy is an island; boys value their friends throughout childhood and adolescence and are happier and
healthier when they have solid relationships with peers(同龄人).
Despite the common belief that girls are better at relationships, most boys consider their friends a very
important part of their lives, and boys may actually be better at keeping friendships than girls are. A recent study of 10 to 15yearold boys and girls found that girls" friendships are actually more fragile. Girls tend to
say and do hurtful things to each other more frequently than boys, and girls are more hurt by the end of a
friendship.
Boys are the living definition of the phrase "peer group"； they love games with rules, competition, and doing things together. Boys seem to enjoy, even need the opportunity to test themselves against others, and many lasting friendships begin in karate(空手道) class or on the basketball court. Competence and skill
are widely respected; being picked last for a team or left out altogether is an experience that can haunt
(萦绕心头) a boy for years.
As boys mature, the friendship becomes even more important, and it frequently widens to include girls. During the teen years, friends can become the most important part of a boy"s life-and a part in which his
parents are not included. The confusion of being a teenager leads boys to form close bonds with friends.
There is the sense for many boys that a friend is someone who is "always there for me", someone he can
trust. They may be partners in crime or partners in study, but the friendship of adolescent boys can run
surprisingly deep.
1. The common belief of adults is that boys________.
A. don"t care about others as much as girls

C. boys may be better at keeping friendships than girls
D. boys may be more active in a friendship

A. widen his circle of friends to include different kinds of people
