一、阅读选择
Japanese students work very hard but many are unhappy. They feel heavy pressures from their parents. Most students are always told by their parents to study harder and better so that they can have a wonderful life in the future. Though this may be a good idea for those very bright students, it can have terrible results for many students who are not gifted (有天赋的) enough. Many of them have tried very hard at school but have failed in the exams and have their parents lose hope. Such students felt that they are hated by everyone else they meet and they don’t want to go to school any longer. They become dropouts.
It is surprising that though most Japanese parents are worried about their children, they do not help them in any way. Many parents feel that they are not able to help their children and that it is the teachers’ work to help their children. To make matters worse, a lot of parents send their children to those schools opening in the evenings and on weekends — they only help the students to pass the exams and never teach them any real sense of the world.
Many Japanese schools usually have rules about everything from the students’ hair to their clothes and things in their school bags. Child psychologists (心理学家) now think that such strict rules are harmful to the feelings of the students. Almost 40% of the students said that no one had taught them how to get on with others, how to tell right from wrong and how to show love and care for others, even for their parents.
1．“Dropouts” are those who _______.
A．make troubles in and out of schools
B．go about or stay home instead of being at school
C．try hard but always fail in the exams
D．lose hope and give up some of their subjects
2．According to the passage, it’s necessary to teach students _______.
A．how to study well
B．how to get on with others
C．to show love and care for others
D．All above
3．Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?
A．The Trouble in Japanese Schools
B．The Problems of Japanese Students
C．Education in Japan
D．The Pressures on the Students in Japan

Thirteen can be a challenging age. Not only did I have to adapt to my changing body, I also had to deal with my parents’ bitter divorce, a new family and the upsetting move from my country home to a crowded town.
When we moved, my beloved companion, a small brown pony had to be sold. I was heartbroken and terribly lonely. I couldn’t eat or sleep and cried all the time. Finally, realizing how much I missed my pony, my father bought me another horse, Cowboy.
Cowboy was without doubt the ugliest horse in the world. But I didn’t care. I loved him beyond all reasons.
I joined a riding club. When Cowboy and I entered the events where the horse was judged by appearance, we were quickly “shown the gate”. I knew nothing could turn Cowboy into a beauty. My only chance to compete would be in the timed speed events. I chose the jumping race.
For the whole next month we practiced running and jumping for hours in the hot sun and then I would walk Cowboy home, totally exhausted.
All of our hard work didn’t make me feel confident by the time the show came. One girl named Becky rode a big brown horse in the race events. She always won the blue ribbons. I sat at the gate and sweated all out while I watched Becky and her horse charge through the court and finish in first place.
My turn finally came. At the signal, we dashed toward the first fence, jumped over it without trouble and raced on to the next one. Cowboy then flew over the second, third and fourth fences like a bird and I turned him toward the finish line.
No cheers filled the air. The end of our run was met with surprised silence. Cowboy and I had beaten Becky and her fancy horse by two seconds.
I gained much more than a blue ribbon that day. At thirteen, I realized that no matter what the odds, I’d always come out a winner if I wanted something badly enough to work for it. I can be the owner of my fate.
4．Why did the author like Cowboy so much in spite of its ugliness?
A．Because she loved horses more than anything else.
B．Because Cowboy was a strong and smart young horse.
C．Because Cowboy had a lot in common with her pony.
D．Because she was sad and lonely and needed a companion.
5．The audience fell into silence at the end of the run probably because_________.
A．they didn’t expect Cowboy would win the event
B．they were unhappy that Becky was beaten in the event
C．they didn’t like cowboy, for it was too ugly
D．they never saw a horse running as fast as Cowboy
6．After the competition, the author came to realize that _______.
A．she ought to gather the courage to solve all the problems
B．it was time to forget her pony and treat Cowboy better
C．she needed to work harder to win more blue ribbons
D．she could be the god of her own fate if she tried hard enough
7．It can be inferred from the story that _________.
A．all of their hard training was totally in vain
B．a blue ribbon must be the second highest prize
C．Cowboy lost in the event of being judged by appearance
D．both Becky and the author won in the jumping event

Almost every family buys as least one copy of a newspaper every day. Some people subscribe to as many as two or three different newspapers. But why do people read newspapers?
Five hundred years ago, news of important happenings--battles lost and won, kings or rulers overthrown(推翻)or killed--took months and even years to travel from one country to another. The news passed by word of mouth and was never accurate. Today we can read in our newspapers of important events that occur in faraway countries on the same day they happen.
Apart from supplying news from all over the world, newspapers give us a lot of other useful information. There are weather reports, radio, television and film guides, book reviews, stories, and of course, advertisements. The bigger ones are put in by large companies to bring attention to their products. They pay the newspapers thousands of dollars for the advertising space, but it is worth the money for news of their products goes into almost every home in the country. For those who produce newspapers, advertisements are also very important. Money earned from advertisements makes it possible for them to sell their newspapers at a low price and still make a profit.
8．The phrase “subscribe to” in the first paragraph means“________”
A．go to the newspaper stand and buy B．send their own news stories to
C．agree to buy for a specific period of time D．become faithful readers of
9．Before the time of the newspaper, ________
A．bad news traveled quickly and good news slowly
B．few people cared about events that took place in faraway countries
C．kings and rulers were often overthrown or killed
D．news was passed from one person to another
10．The author seems to agree that money spent on advertisements is ________.
A．wasted B．not much
C．well spent D．of no use to anyone
11．Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A．Five hundred years ago it took a long time for news to reach other countries.
B．Newspaper advertisements turn people’s attention away from their products.
C．The news that we read in newspapers is mainly about new products.
D．When newspapers are sold at a low price, the newspaper producers will lose money.

Do you know of anyone who uses the truth to deceive (欺骗) ? When someone tells you something that is true, but leaves out important information that should be included, he can give you a false picture.
For example , some might say, "I just won a hundred dollars on the lottery (彩票) . It was great. I took that dollar ticket back to the store and turned it in for one hundred dollars! "
This guy's a winner , right? Maybe , maybe not. We then discover that he bought $200 worth of tickets, and only one was a winner. He's really a big loser!
He didn't say anything that was false, but he left out important information on purpose. That's called a half-truth. Half-truths are not technically lies, but they are just as dishonest.
Some politicians often use this trick. Let's say that during Governor Smith's last term,her state lost one million jobs and gained three million jobs. Then she seeks another term. One of her opponents (对手) says, " During Govemor Smith's term, the state lost one million jobs ! " That's true. However, an honest statement would have been , " During Govemor Smith's term , the state had a net gain of two million jobs. "
Advertisers(广告商) will sometimes use half-truths. It's against the law to make false statements so they try to mislead you with the truth. An advertisement might say, " Nine out of ten doctors advised their patients to take Yucky Pills to cure toothache. " It fails to mention that they only asked ten doctors and nine of them work for the Yucky Company.
This kind of deception happens too often. lt's a sad fact of life :Lies are lies , and sometimes the truth can lie as well.
12．How much did the lottery winner lose?
A．One hundred dollars. B．Two hundred dollars.
C．Three hundred dollars. D．Four hundred dollars.
13．We may infer that the author believes people should___________.
A．buy lottery tickets B．not take anything at face value
C．make use of half-truths D．not trust the Yucky Company
14．What do the underlined words “net gain” in Paragraph 5 mean?
A．Total saving. B．Big advantage.
C．Large share. D．Final increase.
15．What can we know from the example of the Yucky Pill advertisement?
A．False statements are easy to see through.
B．Advertisements are based on facts.
C．Half-truths are often used to mislead people.
D．Doctors like to act in advertisement.
