Can you imagine a world without chocolate? It's not something I'd like to do, so I was relieved to read that there's a university with a programme to safeguard the future of chocolate!

The University of Reading, in England, has just opened a new clearing house for all the world's new cocoa varieties. 丁hey must be quarantined(隔離)before they can be grown. Why? Cocoa production hit a record high of 4. 4 million tons last year but about 30% of the precious crop is regularly lost to pests and diseases. Now we don't want that, do we?

Demand for chocolate has been increasing faster than the world's supply of cocoa and researchers think that new varie?ties are key to solving this problem.

The University of Reading has been protecting the quali?ty of the new crops since 1985， after it took over the task from the Royal Botanical Gardens in Kew, London. And it has improved its facilities. The leader of the institution's co?coa project, Professor Paul Hadley, says, "One of the main issues concerning cocoa improvement is the supply of reliably clean, healthy and interesting cocoa material.，，

The cocoa centre has a collection of 400 plant varieties and the greenhouse uses a lot of energy to keep them in tropi?cal conditions. After up to two years in quarantine, clean and safe seeds are sent to some 20 countries, including several in West Africa. That's where 75 % of the cocoa used for choco?late worldwide comes from. The crop is extremely important for the local economy: it employs about two million people.

Professor Hadley says he works with a small team of skilled technicians who look after the collection. And more of us seem to count on them now.

The scientist says, "There is some concern within the in?dustry that demand is increasing constantly, particularly in countries like China, where the standard of living is increas?ing and people are getting a taste for different kinds of choco?late. "

1.  What is the text mainly about?

A.     Safeguarding cocoa seeds.

B.     Planting cocoa worldwide.

C.     Keeping cocoa in greenhouses.

D.     Finding the new market for cocoa.

2. The institution's cocoa project is to_____________ .

A.     have cocoa skin removed

B.     offer more jobs to people

C.     ensure the quality of cocoa

D.     supply cocoa for two million people

3. What does the last paragraph tell us?

A.     The taste of chocolate is changing.

B.     Demand for cocoa is increasing fast.

C.     People are concerned about cocoa varieties.

D.     Chinese have a long history of eating chocolate.

4. What's the purpose of the text?

A. To educate.                          B.  To advertise.

C.  To warn.                           D.  To inform.

railway station. It was quite different from the regular Eng?lish classes we were familiar to, for we had no textbooks, no blackboard or no fixed seats.

Gathering at the entrance of the station, we told to col?lect as many English words and sentences as possible here. Curious and excited? we walked around the station and looked everywhere, search for any information in English. Whenever an English word comes into sight, the class would burst into the cheers as if we had discovered a new world. With the Chi?nese translation and vividly pictures, we could figure out its meaning with ease.

Now, this unforgettable lesson still encourages me to be an active learner where I go.

Personal money management website Mint, com suggests recently that responsible parents should give their kids credit cards―possibly starting as young as middle school. The web?site says a credit card will help children master responsible spending habits and give parents the chance to teach them some valuable lessons.

It's absolutely true that kids should learn about how a credit card works and how to use it responsibly. But the idea that they need a card of their own to practise this is questiona?ble.

Yes, credit cards are a teaching tool, but it's the time you spend educating them about money management that does the teaching, not the piece of plastic. Sit down with your children—here we are referring to teenagers and walk them through your credit card statements. Point out important things like the due date, late fee warning, and APR(貸款年利率）.

If you have good credit, adding a child as an authorized user onto one of your credit cards also provides teachable mo?ments. Allow kids to use the card to make specific purchases and require their participation in payment.

Since the card is still in your name, you can take them off it at any point and cut off their access if they're not able to handle the responsibility.

Another option is to set a child up with an account at a local bank that offers free use of a debit card(借記卡).Unlike the credit card, the debit card has no overdraft (透支) function.

Children can only use the card to pay for things and the money is taken directly from their bank accounts. If the ac?count is empty, the worst that will happen is the card being declined at a cash register.

5. Why does Mint, com advise parents to give middle school kids credit cards?

A.     To leave their kids financially independent.

B.     To help their kids form good spending habits.

C.     To teach their kids how to save pocket money.

D.     To strengthen the relationship with their kids.

6.The author considers a credit card as a teaching tool be?cause .

A.     it motivates teenagers to ask their parents for less fi?nancial support

B.     it helps teenagers to know some basic knowledge of credit cards

C.     it contains detailed financial information on the card surface

D.     it offers parents the chance to teach kids to manage money

7.What is the purpose of adding kids as credit card author?ized users?

A.     To avoid extremely high overdraft fees.

B.     To encourage them to share household expenses.

C.     To teach them to be responsible credit card users.

D.     To help them pay close attention to their bank accounts.

8.What is most likely to be discussed in the paragraph that follows?

A.     Further information about debit cards.

B.     The overdraft function of a debit card.

C.     More disadvantages of credit cards.

D.     The kids' attitudes towards a credit card.

   I've always felt a need to be prepared for whatever situa?tion I've found myself in.

   My mother once took me to a store when I was seven years old. She and I got to the checkout counter, and she real?ized she had forgotten a couple of things on her shopping list. She left me with the cart and ran off to get what she needed. 

   "I'll be right back," she said.

 She was gone just a few minutes, but in that time, I had loaded all the things on the belt and everything was rung up. I was left staring at the cashier, who was staring at me. "Do you have money Tor me, son?" she said. "I'll need to be paid."

I didn't realize she was just trying to amuse herself. So I stood there, ashamed and embarrassed.

By the time my mum returned, I was angry. " You left me here with no money! This lady asked me for the money, but I had nothing to give her ！"

  Now that I'm an adult, you'll never catch me with less than $ 200 in my wallet. I want to be prepared in case I need it.

I've always admired people who are over-prepared. In college, I had a classmate named Norman. One day he was giving a presentation on an overhead projector and in the mid?dle of his talk, the light bulb(燈泡)on the projector blew out. We would have to wait ten minutes until someone found a new projector.

"It's Okay," he announced. "There's nothing to worry about.，，

We watched him walk over to his bag and pull something out. He had brought along a spare bulb for the overhead pro?jector. Who could even think of that?

  I often tell my students, "When you go into the wilder?ness, the only thing you can depend on is what you take with you. ，， And essentially, the wilderness is anywhere but your home or office. So take money. Pack a light bulb. Be prepared.

1. Why did the cashier ask a seven-year-old boy to pay for the purchases?

A.     The boy was shopping by himself.

B.     The boy's mother asked her to do so.

C.     The cashier was playing a joke on him.

D.     The boy's mother was away for something else.

2. Why was the boy angry with his mother?

A.     His mother left him alone.

B.      He lost face in front of the cashier.

C.      His mother forgot to buy something.

D.     He had just quarrelled with the cashier.

3.  Why did Norman bring a spare bulb with him?

A.     He was always well prepared.

B.      His presentation was about bulbs.

C.      He knew the classroom equipment was of poor quality.

D.       He predicted the bulb on the projector would blow out.

4. What do the two stories tell us?

A.     Accidents happen almost every day.

B.     Money is the key that opens all doors.

C.     In fair weather, prepare for a rainy day.

D.     Chances favour those who are well prepared.

"Tell your tale in pictures and in words, " say the organ?izers of the competition. "It can be in a picture book or comic book format.，，

The winner of each competition will receive a signed copy of a book by each of the 12 authors involved in this year's tour, plus £150 worth of books for his or her school. The runners-up will receive a signed copy of Souhami's new book.

  Cleverness is a gift while kindness is a choice. Gifts are easy―they're given after all. Choices can be hard.

I got the idea to start Amazon 16 years ago. I came across the fact that the Internet usage was growing at 2 ， 300 per cent per year. I'd never seen or heard of anything that grew that fast, and the idea of building an online bookstore with millions of titles was very exciting to me. I had just turned 30 years old, and I'd been married for a year. I told my wife MacKenzie that I wanted to quit my job and go to do this crazy thing that probably wouldn't work since most start?ups don't, and that I wasn't sure what to expect. MacKenzie told me I should go for it. As a young boy? I'd been a garage inventor. Id always wanted to be an inventor, and she wan?ted me to follow my passion.

I was working at a financial firm in New York City with a bunch of very smart people, and I had a brilliant boss that I much admired. I went to my boss and told him I wanted to start a company selling books on the Internet. He took me on a long walk in Central Park, listened carefully to me, and fi?nally said, "That sounds like a really good idea, but it would be an even better idea for someone who didn't already have a good job. " That logic made some sense to me, and he con?vinced me to think about it for 48 hours before making a final decision. Seen in that light, it really was a difficult choice, but ultimately (最后)，I decided I had to give it a shot. I didn't think I'd regret trying and failing. And I suspected I would always be haunted by a decision to not try at all.

After much consideration, I took the less safe path to follow my passion, and I'm proud of that choice. For all of us, in the end, we are our choices.

1. What inspired the author with the idea of building an on?line bookstore?

A. His dream of being an inventor.

B. The support of his wife.

C. The greatly increasing usage of the Internet.

D.  Millions of exciting titles.

2.  Which of the following is closest in meaning to the under?lined sentence in Paragraph 3?

A. The idea of not trying would keep coming to his mind and disturb him.

B.He would be very excited if he tried it out.

 C. He would be always having a doubt if he didn't try.

D.  The decision to not try the online bookstore would terrify him.

3. We can know from the passage that .

A.the boss thought the idea was suitable for the author

B.the author wanted someone else to try the idea

C.the author might not regret if he failed the idea

D. the author might go back to his boss if he failed

4. Which of the following would be the best title for the pas?sage?

 A. Cleverness and kindness

B.The starting of Amazon

C. Following my passion

D.  We are what we choose
