  In Britain you are allowed to drive a car when you are seventeen. You have to get a special twoyear driving license before you can start. When you are learning,someone with a full license always has to be in the car with you because you aren't allowed to drive the car on the road alone. You don't have to go to a driving school―a friend can teach you. The person with you isn't allowed to take the money for the lesson unless he's got a teacher's license.

  Before you are allowed to have a full license,you have to take a driving test. You can take a test in your own car,but it has to be fit for the road. In the test you have to drive round for about half an hour and then answer a few questions. If you don't pass the test,you are allowed to take it again a few weeks later if you want to. In 1970 a woman passed her fortieth test after 212 driving lessons. When you've passed your test,you don't have to take it again,and you are allowed to go on driving as long as you like. Britain's oldest driver was a man who drove in 1974 at the age of 100.

  Before 1904 everyone was allowed to drive,even children. Then from 1904 car drivers had to have a license. But they didn't have to take a test until 1935. On the early days of car driving,before 1878,cars weren't allowed to go faster than four miles an hour,and someone had to lead the car with a red flag.

My father woke me up early one summer morning when I was fourteen and announced, u Get up,you're going with me to cut grass."

The idea that my father actually thought I was old enough to help him in his business made me feel proud and excited. From sunrise,my father,my younger brother and I worked in the large yards,in a rich part of Atlanta,Georgia. By the end of the day I was tired out,but I felt well. I had put in a day's hard work and had earned $6.

One day my father found some leaves I'd missed and pulled me aside. uClear away these leaves," he said seriously, "and don't make me have to tell you to do it again."The message was clear. Today I value the importance of doing a job right the first time. It will never fail to impress (給. 留下印象) the person you are working for.

After two years my father told my brother and me that he felt we were old enough to do lawns (草坪) on our own. Every Saturday during my last year of high school,when I was 18 ,we set out early in the morning every day.

Taking care of lawns was not exciting or highpaying,but that didn't matter. It taught me that any job's a good job and that whatever I was paid was more than I had before.

A newspaper reporter once asked me how someone could possibly live on a forty-hour-a-week minimum (最低) pay, "My father never worked just forty hours a week,and neither have 1 ," I replied, "If you're only working forty hours a week,you probably don't want to do any better than you are doing."In every job I've had,from doing lawns to washing dishes,I have learned something that helps me in my next job. If you work hard enough,you can learn from any job you do.

   B. Because he became important to his father's business.

   C. Because he was able to take care of large yards.

   A. not leaving behind

   B. giving no excuse for your mistakes

   C. doing a job good at the very beginning

   D. missing things which can be found out

(   ) 13. What does the underlined sentence "My father never worked just forty hours a week,and neither have I" in the last paragraph mean?

   A. My father worked more than forty hours a day and so have I.

   B. My father didn't work forty hours a week and neither have I.

   C. My father worked less than forty hours a week and neither have I.

   D. My father worked more than forty hours a week and so have I.

A World Made Fat Han Longwei,a Junior 2 student at Jinan No. 1Middle School in Shandong,faces a challenge every day. A McDonald's restaurant has opened near his house. It's a great temptation (謗惑) because he loves hamburgers.

"I love fast food,so I always want to go into McDonald's whenever I pass it by ,"he said.

Han Longwei is 1. 57 metres tall and weighs 80 kilograms. He is just one of the many overweight students inChina.

A new Ministry of Education (教育部) report says about half of middle school students do not weigh a normal amount. The number of overweight middle school students has increased to nearly 24 percent. " Obesity (過度肥胖) may become a new student killer," said Liao Wenke,a ministry official.

Why have so many students started to become overweight?

Like many teens at his age,Han spends too little time exercising and too much time playing on his computer,watching TV and,of course,eating fast food.

Students often watch many advertisements on TV which make unhealthy food look delicious. Many students are crazy about snack food (快餐) such as fried chicken,hamburgers and coke. This type of food is very bad for you and makes you fat.

Not exercising enough and spending too much time watching TV are the other two main reasons why students are getting fatter. Students have to spend a long time studying and this makes it difficult for them to find time to exercise. The Ministry of Education report shows that middle school students spend about 10 hours a day sitting down and more than 13 hours each week watching TV.

What can happen to your health if you eat too much fatty food?

Eating too much fatty food can make your body produce a lot of cholesterol (膽固醇) . Too much cholesterol can cause serious health problems such as heart disease and some kinds of cancer (癌癥) .

Han Longwei would like to lose weight but finds it difficult. His father said that Han doesn't like to do certain sports. "Because he is fat,his classmates often laugh at him,"he said. Han is going to try and stop going to McDonald's. "I want to lose weight to improve my health,"he said,"I just wish I didn't like the taste so much!"


(   ) 11. Why does Han Longwei face a challenge every day？

   A. Because a McDonald's restaurant has opened near his house.

   B. Because he loves eating fast food.

   C. Because he wants to go into McDonald's as he is hungry.

   D. Because he is overweight.


(   ) 12. What does the underlined sentence " about half of middle school students do not weigh a normal amount" mean in the passage?

   A. About half of middle school students are too thin.

   B. About half of middle school students are too fat.

   C. About half of middle school students are either too thin or too fat.

   D. About half of middle school students are neither too thin nor too fat.


(   ) 13. All the following are the reasons for students getting fatter except         .

   A. not enough exercises   B. eating fast food

   C. too much homework   D. watching too much TV

(   ) 14. Why shouldn't we eat too much fatty food?

   A. Because it can make our body produce a lot of cholesterol.

   B. Because it will lead to many serious health problems.

   C. Because others will laugh at us.

   D. Because it will prevent us from doing certain sports.


(   ) 15. What does Han mean when he says "I just wish I didn't like the taste so much!"?

   A. He likes the taste so much that he can't get away from it.

   B. He didn't like the taste but now he does.

   C. He likes the taste but he didn't like it before.

   D. He hopes that one day he will like the taste.

 Once,a group of boys decided to play a soccer game. Each of them would bring something used in the match. So one would bring the ball,another the whistle,others the goalkeeper gloves,the corner flags.

But while they were picking the teams,there was an argument. They decided that the boy who had brought the most important object would pick the teams. However they couldn't choose which had been the most important object,so they decided to start playing and gradually drop what they had brought,to see which things were truly needed.

The first thing they dropped was the whistle,because the judge could just shout instead. Then the goalkeeper gloves,they managed to save the ball just as well without them. Neither did they really notice when they stopped using the corner flags. Finally they even replaced the football with an old tin (易拉罐) ，and still managed to keep playing.

When they were playing with the tin,a man and his son passed by. Seeing the boys playing like that,the man said to his son, "Look,son. Learn from those kids. Without even a ball they're managing to play football,even though they're never going to be able to improve playing in that way."

The boys heard what he said,and realized that because of their pride,what could have been a great match had turned into a shameful display,which they were hardly enjoying at all. At that moment,they decided to give up their selfish opinions,and to start playing the match again,from the start and with all the necessary objects.

And it really was a great game. No one thought about who was playing better or worse. Rather,they just paid attention to having fun and improving their game.

When doing things together,the important thing is to make sure things turn out for the best,rather than argue about how much each person has contributed.

(   ) 6. The boys couldn't find the most important object,probably because -

   A. they thought all the objects were of no importance

   B. everyone believed his own object was the most important one

   D. all of them wanted to give the chance to others

(   ) 7. Which of the following is true according to the passage?

   A. The judge dropped the goalkeeper gloves.

   B. Football was the most important object in the game.

   C. None of the objects left as they went on the game.

   D. The father passed by thought highly of the boys.

(   ) 8. When hearing what the father said,the boys might feel very         .

   A. angry   B. proud   C. nervous   D. embarrassed

(   ) 9. We can see from the passage that finally the boys         .

   A. found the most important object

   B. decided whom to pick the teams

   C. played a great game and had fun

   D. went on the game without objects

(   ) 10. The writer mainly wants to tell us that         .

   A. we should improve playing rather than compare contributions

   B. we should do our best to beat others in a match

   C. we should not show off our own contributions
