Sam was a fifteen-year-old boy living with his little sister,Julie. Their parents passed away long ago. Sam took care of Julie by himself.

   One day,Sam woke up at three in the morning as usual. When Julie was sleeping alone,Sam left their little house to send newspapers. When he found an old man sitting in front of their house,Sam was so surprised that he stopped to look at him closely. It was an icy (冰冷的) morning and he looked very cold.

   The poor old man didn't have anything to cover himself with. Sam went into his house to get the old man a blanket. However,there were no extra blankets,so Sam thought hard and took his father's coat. It was the only thing of his father's that he had left. Sam wrote a short note. “Sir,I found you sleeping in front of my house. This is my father's coat. I hope it fits you well. ”He put the note in a pocket of the coat,and covered the old man with the coat. Then he went to work. When he came back three hours later,both the man and the coat were gone. Sam thought that it was the best thing he could have done with his father's coat.

   That afternoon,Sam hurried home after school because Julie was at home alone. However,Julie and the old man were standing in front of the house,and Julie shouted to Sam ,“Brother!He's our grandfather!” 

   The grandfather smiled and said ,“Sam. Thank you for giving me the coat and letting me know how good my grandson is. This coat was the one that I gave my son a long time ago!”(江蘇省無(wú)錫市新區(qū)2013 —2014學(xué) 年八年級(jí)下學(xué)期期中考試英語(yǔ)試題)

  Some parents are used to doing almost everything for their children. They see their older children as babies!It can be a very common problem in China,because most parents only have one child in China. Some parents care so much about the safety of their children that they are afraid to let them go anywhere or do anything by themselves. So their children fail to learn social skills and become more dependent on (依賴于) them!

   In fact,no children really enjoy being looked after by their parents all the time. No parents would be happy knowing that. Because of too much care,their children don't know anything about the world. Children need their own time to grow into adults and to learn how to deal with problems. Too much care damages (損 害) their fun when they are growing up. And when suddenly they can't depend on their parents,these children will be in big trouble!

   It is nice that parents show their care to their children. It is nice that children know that their parents’ care is out of love. And it will be nicer if the children let their parents know how much love they really need and how much love is too much.

  If you can speak English,you know a lot of English words. You can read,speak and understand. But there is another kind of language you need to know—the language of the body.

   All over the world,people “talk” with their hands,with their heads and with their eyes. When Japanese people meet,they bow (鞠躬;彎腰) . When Indians meet,they put their hands together. What do American and British people do?

   Americans are more informal (不拘禮節(jié)的) than the British. They like to be friendly. They use first names;they ask questions and they talk easily about themselves. When they sit down,they like to relax in their chairs and make themselves comfortable.

   British people are more reserved (矜持的，緘默的) . They take more time to make friends. They like to know you before they ask you something of your home.

   When British and American people meet someone for the first time,they shake hands. They do not usually shake hands with people they know well. Women sometimes kiss their women friends,and men kiss women friends. When a man meets a man friend,he just smiles,and says “Hello”. Men do not kiss each other,or hold hands. Even fathers and sons do not often kiss each other.

  The bank of England is making plans to introduce plastic banknotes to the UK.

   Paper notes,meaning pieces of paper money,have been used in England for more than 300 years,but replacing them with plastic ones could be better.

   Plastic notes were first introduced to Australia back in 1988. Since then other countries,including Romania,Vietnam,Mexico and Malaysia,have also begun using money made in this way.

   Fans of water sports,such as surfing,find this type of money more useful and easier,as they can take it with them in the water and won't worry that it will fall apart. It is also good for people who by mistake put clothes in the washing machine with a note in the pocket!

   It is more hygienic (clean and free of bacteria) than paper money as it absorbs less bacteriaCthe simplest and smallest form of plants,some of which cause disease) . And it is stronger. This means it lasts longer. According to a survey,a usual 5 note in the UK lasts around six months,while the $ 5 Australian bill lasts for an average of 40 months.

   A downside of plastic cash is that it costs more money to produce. Cash and money-counting machines will also have to be adapted to accept the new money.

   It is expected that the Bank of England,who hopes to start printing plastic notes from 2015,will introduce the money slowly,using the most common notes first.(江蘇省連云港市 2013 年中考)

() 10. Which country was the first to use plastic notes?

   A. The UK. B. Romania. C. Vietnam. D. Australia.

() 11. You can put the sentence “Besides being waterproof,there are other good effects of using plastic notes instead of paper ones. ” at the beginning of .

   A. Paragraph 3   B. Paragraph 4   C. Paragraph 5   D. Paragraph 6

() 12. What can you infer (推斷) from Paragraph 6 ?

   A. Plastic notes should be printed in cash machines.

   B. There are some disadvantages of using plastic notes.

   C. Every country will have to accept the new money.

   D. Plastic notes should be produced by the cashiers.

() 13. Which is NOT the reason why the UK wants to use plastic notes instead of paper ones?

In China, if you are not married by the time you are 30, you are in for trouble: social blame and pressure from family and friends can get you down. And if you are a woman, it’s even worse.

Many young people get married simply to get other people off their backs (免受別人的指責(zé)) . This is a serious compromise (妥協(xié)). One ends up not marrying the ideal partner.

There are, however, a few young people who refuse to compromise: if they can’t find a good marriage partner, they say, they would rather not marry at all.

34-year-old Kate is a university lecturer in English. She said she would not describe herself as celibatarian (獨(dú)身主義者) but simply a woman who hasn’t come across the right man yet. She has sharp comments for the way in which the old generation looks at marriage.

“Many people think marriage is a duty---to your parents, family and society. Nobody cares if your marriage is happy or not, she said, I think this is very wrong and I intend to live and act according to my own will.”

Happily for her, her parents are open-minded and not put pressure on her. But the same does not apply to her friends. They are constantly trying to get her together with some young man or another. She always refuses politely.

Too much TV-watching can harm children’s ability to learn and even reduce their chances of getting a college degree, new studies suggest in the latest effort to examine the effects of television on children.

One of the studies looked at nearly 400 northern California third-graders. Those with TVs in their bedrooms scored about eight points lower on math and language arts tests than children without bedroom TVs.

A second study, looking at nearly 1000 grown-ups in New Zealand, found lower education levels among 26-years–old who had watched lots of TV during childhood. But the results don’t prove that TV is the cause and don't rule out(排除)that already poorly motivated youngsters (年輕人）may watch lots of TV.

Their study measured the TV habits of 26-years-old between ages 5 and 15. These with college degrees had watched an average of less than two hours of TV per weeknight during childhood, compared with an average of more than 2 hours for those who had no education beyond high school.

In the California study,children with TVs in their rooms but no computer at home scored the lowest while those with no bedroom TV but who had home computers scored the highest.

While this study does not prove that bedroom TV sets caused the lower scores, it adds to accumulating（積累） findings that children shouldn't have TVs in their bedrooms

1.According to the California study, the low-scoring group might________.

A. have watched a lot of TV

B. not be interested in math

C. be unable to go to college

D. have had computers in their bedrooms

2.What is the researchers' understanding of the New Zealand study results?

A. Poorly motivated 26-years-old watch more TV.

B. Habits of TV watching reduce learning interest.

C. TV watching leads to lower education levels of the 15-years-old.

D. The connection between TV and education levels is difficult to explain.

3.What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?

A. More time should be spent on computers.

B. Children should be forbidden from watching TV.

C. TV sets shouldn't be allowed in children's bedrooms.

D. Further studies on high-achieving students should be done.

4.What would be the best title for this text?

A. Computers or Television

B. Effects of Television on Children

C. Studies on TV and College Education

D. Television and Children's Learning Habits
