"In that case, be careful and don't worry. You are very clever," the agent said." Take 5,000 dollars more," Mike looked around uneasily but took the money.
Mike was a clerk in a large company. A few years ago he started to get very worried because it was very hard for him to support his family. He wanted to give his child an excellent education and a bright future, but the future looked rather hopeless.

One night when Mike was on one of his spying tasks, he met Alim, the night watchman." What are you doing here, Mike?" shouted Alim.
"Oh, I had just forgotten some documents here, Alim, "Mike replied, trying to look comfortable." I just came to get them."
"Is that true?" Alim said." We’ll see what Mr. Smith says."
Alim called Mr. Smith and told him to come right away. Mr. Smith looked at Mike and said. "So you are the thief! I believed in you, Mike."
"Call the police, Alim. We have finally caught the spy," Mr. Smith said. "And by the way, Mike ,no man can serve two masters. You should have left if you did not work with us any longer."

Living and dealing with kids can be a tough job these days, but living and dealing with parents can be even tougher.
  If I have learned anything in my 16 years, it is that communication is very important, both when you disagree and when you get along. With any relationship, you need to let other person know how you are feeling. If you are not able to communicate, you drift apart.When you are mad at your parents, or anyone else, not talking to them doesn’t solve anything.
  Communication begins with the concerns (關(guān)心) of another. It means that you can’t just come home from school, go up to your room and take no notice to anyone. Even if you just say “Hi”, and see how their day was for five minutes, it is better than nothing.
  If you looked up the word “communication” in a dictionary, it would say “the exchange of ideas, the conveyance (表達(dá))of information, correspondence (通信), means of communication: a letter or a message”. To keep a good relationship, you must keep communication strong. Let people know how you feel, even if it’s just by writing a note.
  When dealing with parents, you always have to make them feel good about how they are doing as a parent. If you are trying to make them see something as you see it, tell them that you’ll listen to what they have to say, and ask them politely to listen to you. Shouting or walking away only makes the situation worse.
  Here is an example: one night, Sophie went to a street party with her friends. She knew she had to be home by midnight after the fireworks, but she didn’t feel she could just ask to go home. That would be rude. After all, they had been nice enough to take her along with them. Needless to say, she was late getting home. Her parents were mad at first, but when Sophie explained why she was late, they weren’t as mad and let it go. Communication is the key here. If Sophie’s parents had not been willing to listen, Sophie would have been in a lot of trouble.
  Communication isn’t a one-way matter: it goes both ways. Just remember: if you get into a situation like Sophie’s, telling the other person how you feel-------listening is the key to communication.
小題1:In the writer’s view, dealing with parents is __________ than with children.
A.more difficultB.much easier
C.less interestingD.more interesting
小題2:The underlined phrase “ drift apart” in Paragraph 2 means __________.
A.keep up with othersB.move along smoothly
C.distance yourself form othersD.come closer to each other
小題3:The example in Paragraph 6 shows that ___________.
A.Sophie is very polite to her parents  
B.Sophie’s parents are willing to listen to her
C.Sophie did well in explaining her being late
D.communication is the solutionto misunderstanding
小題4:All the following statements are correct except “_______”.
A.Communication is a two-way matter  
B.It is better to say “Hi” to others than say nothing
C.If you don’t agree with others, you’d better let them know
D.When dealing with parents, you only need to listen to them

Light travels at a speed which is about a million times faster than the speed of sound. You can get some idea of this difference by watching the start of a race. If you stand some distance(距離) away from the starter, you can see smoke from his gun before the sound reaches your ears.
This great speed of light produces some strange facts. Sunlight(太陽光) takes about 8 minutes to reach us. If you look at the light of the moon tonight, remember that the light rays left the moon 1.3 seconds before they reached you. The nearest star is so far away that the light that you can see from it tonight started to travel towards you four years ago at a speed of nearly 2 million km. per minute. In some cases, the light from one of tonight’s stars had started on its journey to you before you were born.
Thus, if we want to be honest, we can’t say, “The stars are shining tonight.” We have to say instead, “The stars look pretty. They were shining four years ago, but their light has only just reached the earth.”
小題1:Light speed is ______ sound speed.
A.a(chǎn)s fast as
B.a(chǎn) million times slower than
C.a(chǎn)bout millions of times faster than
D.a(chǎn)bout a million times faster than
小題2: If you stand 200 meters away from a man who is firing a gun to start a race, you will find out that ______.
A.you can hear the sound before you see the smoke
B.the sound does not travel as fast as light
C.the sound will reach you before the man fires
D.sound travels about a million times faster than light
小題3:Sunlight obviously(顯然的) ______ than the light of the moon.
A.has to travel a greater distance
B.moves less quickly
C.travels much more quickly
D.is less powerful
小題4: The scientific way of saying "The stars are shining tonight" should be ______.
A.the stars have been shining all the time
B.the stars seen tonight will shine four years later
C.the stars were shining long ago but seen tonight

The Earth has warmed by about half a degree(0.50℃)over the last 100 years. It could be getting warmer on its own, but many scientists think that people are making the Earth warmer by making a greenhouse effect. The greenhouse effect is important.  Without it, the Earth would not be warm enough for us to live on. But just a little warmer than it is now could cause problems for humans, plants and animals.
Many of the things we do every day can change the Earth’s temperature by sending greenhouse gases into the air. We send greenhouse gases into the air when we watch TV, turn on lights, dry hair, play video games, wash or dry our clothes or drive cars. The rubbish from factories and homes also produces greenhouse gases.
Even a small change in temperature can affect our weather. This can cause changes in the sea levels, the air, flooding, and our fresh water.
The change in the temperature can also cause changes in the living places for animals and plants, endangering many animals.
Global warming is a big problem, and every little bit we do can help. We can save electricity. We can save energy in other ways such as by taking buses or walking rather than driving cars. We can recycle to reduce the rubbish and save natural resources such as trees, oil and metals. We can buy products that don’t do bad to the environment and we can turn to solar energy. Remember the little bit that you do will bring a better world.
小題1: Which of the following does not send greenhouse gases into the air?
A.Watching TV.B.Turning on a light.
C.Driving a car.D.Walking to school.
小題2: In this passage, the scientists are mainly trying to make the readers realize___________ .
A.the greenhouse effect is important
B.humans are making the earth warmer
C.the earth is getting warmer in 100 years
D.the earth could be getting warmer by itself
小題3: Without the greenhouse effect,we would _____________ .
A.be safer B.not be able to live
C.have a cleaner earthD.have a better world
小題4: The writer gives us advice on how to save energy in __________ .
A.Paragraph 2B.Paragraph 3
C.Paragraph 4D.Paragraph 5
