My name is Wang Kun. Ever since middle school, my sister Wang Wei and I have dreamed about taking a great bike trip. Two years ago she bought an expensive mountain bike and then she persuaded me to buy one. Last year, she visited our cousins, Dao Wei and Yu Hang at their college in Kunming. They are Dai(傣族人) and grew up in western Yunnan Province near the Lancang River, the Chinese part of the river that is called the Mekong River in other countries. Wang Wei soon got them interested in bike riding too. After graduating from college, we finally got the chance to take a bike trip. I asked my sister, "Where are we going?" It was my sister who first had the idea to ride along the whole Mekong River from where it begins to where it ends. Now she is planning our schedule for the trip.

My sister has one serious shortcoming(缺點(diǎn)). She can be really stubborn(固執(zhí)的). Although she didn't know the best way of getting to places, she insisted(堅(jiān)持) that she organize the trip properly. Now, I know that the proper way is always her way. I kept asking her, "When are we leaving and when are we coming back?" I asked her whether she had looked at a map yet. Of course, she hadn't; my sister doesn't care about details(細(xì)節(jié)). So I told her that the source (源頭)of the Mekong River is in Qinghai Province. She gave me a determined look—the kind that said she would not change her mind. When I told her that our journey would begin at an altitude of more than 5,000 metres, she seemed to be excited about it. When I told her the air would be hard to breathe(呼吸) and it would be very cold, she said it would be an interesting experience. I know my sister well. Once she has made up her mind, nothing can change it. Finally, I had to give in.
Several months before our trip, Wang Wei and I went to the library. We found a large atlas with good maps that showed details of world geography. From it we could see that the Mekong River begins in a glacier on a mountain in Qinghai Province. At first the river is small and the water is clear and cold. Then it begins to move quickly. It becomes rapids as it passes through deep valleys, travelling across western Yunnan Province. Sometimes the river becomes a waterfall. We were both surprised to learn that half of the river is in China. After it leaves China, the Mekong becomes wide, brown and warm. As it enters Southeast Asia, its pace slows. At last, the river delta enters the South China Sea.
小題1:Who planned the trip to the Mekong River?
A．Wang KunB．Wang WeiC．Dao WeiD．Yu Hang
小題2:The Mekong River  begins from________.
A．KunmingB．western Yunnan ProvinceC．Qinghai ProvinceD．the South China Sea

A．Wang Kun and Wang Wei dreamed about taking a bike trip and finally they got the chance.
B．Wang Kun thought that it would be easy to start their trip in Qinghai.
C．Wang Kun had to stop arguing with Wang Wei and accept her idea finally.
D．Wang Kun and Wang Wei didn’t know that half of the river is in China before they went to the library.
小題5:What do you think is the best title of the passage ?
A．The Dream And The PlanB．A Trip In The Mountain
C．The Mekong RiverD．A Great Bike Trip

Dear Mr. King,
Your supermarket chain is excellent in many ways. I enjoy the things you sell, such as the selection of produce (農(nóng)產(chǎn)品) and fresh bakery items. I have been a long time supermarket shopper and hope to continue for many years. I have found, however, that I must make a separate shopping trip to one of your competitors because there are many items your store does not carry. This becomes inconvenient for me, as my time is valuable, and I do not like to make two trips. Your low prices and excellent customer service keep me coming back to your supermarket, but I would be a more satisfied customer if I could find all the items I need in one place.
To tell the truth, I have never been able to purchase nacho (烤干酪辣味玉米片) cheese soup at your store. I can find other flavors (味道) of soup, but your store does not carry nacho cheese soup, a common ingredient (原料) in many of my recipes. In addition, I can only find large wonton wrappers (餛飩皮), while many other stores carry both large and small and offer a more varied selection for their customers. Another example is Regent Brand Chili Seasoning. Though it is not a leading brand, it is still common on the shelves of other grocery stores in this area and is superior in flavor to its competitors.
I sincerely hope to continue a relationship with your store, and I hope that you will consider the possibility of expanding your goods to be more competitive.
Yours truly,
Bob Watson 
小題1:According to the passage, who often buy things in the supermarket?
A．Mr. King.B．Bob Watson.
C．Regent Brand.D．Mrs. Watson.
小題2:From the first paragraph, we know the supermarket chain ________.
A．meets all the writer’s needsB．is the best in every way
C．offers good customer serviceD．is far from the writer’s home
小題3:How does the writer present his point in Paragraph Two?
A．By giving examples.
B．By using some sharp words.
C．By providing scientific findings.
D．By comparing two different stores.
