 One summer day my father sent me to buy wire for our farm. At 16, I liked 36 better than driving our truck, 37 this time I was not happy. My father had told me I’d have to ask for credit(賒賬) at the store.

Sixteen is a 38 age, when a young man wants respect, not charity. It was 1976, and the ugly 39 of racial discrimination was 40 a fact of life. I’d seen my friends ask for credit and then stand, head down, while the store owner 41 whether they were “good for it.” I knew black youths just like me who were 42 like thieves by the store clerk each time they went into a grocery.

My family was 43 . We paid our debts. But before harvest, cash was short. Would the store owner 44 us ?

At Davis’s store, Buck Davis stood behind the cash desk, talking to a farmer. I nodded 45 I passed him on my way to the hardware shelves. When I brought my 46 to the casks desk, I said 47 , “I need to put this on credit.”

The farmer nodded in a neighborly 52 . I was filled with pride. James William’s son. Those three words had opened a door to an adult’s respect and trust.

Prince William and the Duchess of Cambridge's new son will be named George Alexander Louis, the royal family says. A statement from William and Catherine's settlement  Kensington Palace said the baby, third in line to the throne(王位), would be known as His Royal Highness Prince George of Cambridge.

On Wednesday the royal couple took their son to Catherine's parents' house in Berkshire, following a half-hour visit by the Queen. All three names had been among the favourites listed by British bookmakers and the announcement was relatively quick by royal standards. It took a month for the name of Prince Charles, the heir to the throne, to be announced, and a week for William, his eldest son.

George has been the name of six British kings. The last, George VI, was the father of Queen Elizabeth II and reigned from 1936 to 1952. Alexandra, the female form of Alexander, is one of the Queen's middle names and was also the name of the Queen mate of King Edward VII at the start of the last century. Louis is one of William's middle names and was the given name of Prince Charles's tutor and great-uncle Louis Mountbatten, who was murdered by the IRA in 1979.

The choice of name, relatively short by royal standards, does not necessarily mean the baby will eventually become King George VII. The Queen's father was named Albert, but chose to be crowned as George VI.

"It's interesting that they chose to go with just three names," historian Suzannah Lipscomb told Sky News. "It's almost as if the royal family is coming down with ordinary people, who tend to have fewer middle names than monarchs(君主).It is a name that none can find any problems with. George itself can't be shortened in any obvious offensive way. They've probably gone for something that is safe."

1.Which of the following statements can best sum up the passage ?

A. New royal baby named George Alexander Louis

B. The royal couple gave birth to their eldest son.

C. The choice of name was interesting and complicated .

D. The new baby, third in line to the throne .

2.From the passage we can know the father of the new royal baby is ____.

A. Catherine      B. George.     C. Charles   D. William

3.Which of the following is True based on the whole passage  ? 

A.. Prince Charles was the third heir to the British throne.

B. George Alexander Louis was the third heir to the British throne.

C. The announcement of the new loyal baby’s name is slow by royal standards.

D. All three names , George Alexander Louis, were unpopular with British bookmakers.

4.The underlined word “reign” in paragraph 4 probably refers to ______

A. resign          B. boom           C. govern           D. retire

5.From what Suzannah Lipscomb told Sky News , we can infer in Britain _____

A. the name of an ordinary person is simple but meaningful .

B. George itself can't be simplified in any obvious offensive way.

C. a monarch or a prince has usually more names in the middle than the ordinary people.

D. a person with more middle names must be a monarch or a prince .

Britons stranded（擱淺）at sea or in flooded homes could find a real-life prince riding to their rescue. Prince William announced on Monday that he is to train to be a full-time pilot with the Royal Air Force's Search and Rescue Force (SARF).
William, who is currently a Lieutenant（中尉）in the Army's Household Cavalry Regiment（皇家騎兵團）, will transfer to the RAF and begin an 18-month training course in January 2009.
If successful, he will become a fully operational Search and Rescue pilot in 2010, flying Sea King helicopters at one of the six SARF units based in Britain.
"The time I spent with the RAF earlier this year made me realize how much I love flying," the prince, who spent two weeks with a SARF team while on work experience in 2005, said in a statement.
"Joining Search and Rescue is a perfect opportunity for me to serve in the Forces operationally, while contributing to a vital part of the country's Emergency Services."
It means he will follow a similar career to that of his uncle, Prince Andrew, who was a Sea King helicopter pilot during the 1982 Falklands war.
The Search and Rescue teams' main duty is to recover RAF personnel but in peacetime they mainly respond to civilian emergencies, dealing with more than 1,000 calls a year.
The units deal with incidents ranging from helping those trapped by sudden major floods to rescuing people lost while out walking on hills.
William, who has spent the last year on secondment（借調(diào)）to the various branches of the military to prepare for his future role as head of the armed forces, received his RAF wings （飛行勛章）following a four-month stint（持續(xù)的工作）with the service earlier this year.
However, his time with the RAF was clouded when the Defense Ministry was forced to fend off criticism for allowing the prince to fly military helicopters to a bachelor party for his cousin and to the family home of his girlfriend Kate Middleton.

    Prince William wanted to be a full-time pilot because _____.

      the Falklands war broke out in 2005
    2. B.
      Prince William served in the Army’s Household Cavalry Regiment in 1982
    3. C.
      Prince Andrew is serving in SARF now
    4. D.
      William would finish his training course in June 2010

    1. A.
      the RAF is an army that rescues its soldiers during wartime
    2. B.
      either Andrew or William is interested in flying
    3. C.
      there are many floods happening in Britain
    4. D.
      the prince saving the people in danger is no longer fairy tale
  4. 4.

    1. A.
      enthusiastic
    2. B.
      doubtful
    3. C.
      negative
    4. D.
      pessimistic
  5. 5.

    What is the purpose of the author by mentioning what the prince had done before in the last paragraph?

    1. A.
      The author wants to say that Prince William pays much attention to his family and friends
    2. B.
      The author suggests that the Defense Ministry was criticized when William flew for his private business
    3. C.
      William had a hard time when he went against his leaders
    4. D.
      The author has the worry that Prince William is likely to get the Defense Ministry into trouble again.
