Mr. Baker is retired at home now. He feels bored every day and he thinks he is growing older quickly. When he watches TV, he has to turn it up. But this often disturbs his neighbors. So he decides to buy a hearing aid. As he is a frugal man, he doesn't want to pay much money for a hearing aid.

One day, he went to a clinic(診所) and asked the clerk, "How much do these hearing aids cost?"

"That depends," said the clerk. "They cost from 2.00 dollars to 2 000 dollars."

"Let me see the $2.00 model," he said.

The clerk put the device(設備) around Mr Baker's neck. "You just put this button in your ear and run this little string(線) down to your pocket," he explained.

"How does it work?" Mr. Baker asked.

"For $2.00 it doesn't work," the clerk answered. "But when people see it on you, they'll talk louder!"

閱讀理解。

Arog and Brog are two frogs. They had lived in a village all their lives. They thought they would like to go and see the big city that was about ten miles away.

They talked about it for a long time, and at last they set off to see the city.

It was a hot day, and they soon began to feel tired. They had only gone a little way when Arog said to Brog, "We must be nearly there. Can you see the city?"

"No," said Brog, "but if I climb up on your back I might be able to see it."

So Brog climbed up on Arog's back to see the city.

Now when Brog put up his head, his eyes could only see what was behind, and not what was in front. So he saw the village they had just left.

"Can you see the city?" asked the frog who was below.

"Yes," answered Brog. "I can see it. It looks just like our village."

Then the frogs thought that it was not worthwhile going any farther. They went back and told the frogs round the village that they had seen the city, and it was just like theirs.

1.Why did the two frogs talk a long time before they set off?

A.Because it was far from their village to the city.

B.Because they were afraid of the hot weather.

C.Because they were not interested in the city.

D.Because they didn't want to go there at all.

2.Brog climbed up on Arog's back to .

A.relax himself B.see how strong Arog was

C.see the city D.play a joke on Arog

3.What did Brog see on Arog's back?

A.A beautiful city in the front.

B.The village they had just left.

C.Another village looked like theirs.

D.A city that looked like their village.

4.The two frogs stop walking because .

A.there was no city at all

B.they were too tired to walk

C.it was dangerous to go ahead

D.they thought it was not worthwhile going any farther

5.What does the writer want to tell us?

B.In fact, life in the village is as good as that in the city.

C.If you want to do something, you should think it over.
