【題目】 Once upon a time, there lived a generous and kind-hearted king. But, the people weren’t happy with their king because he was too lazy and wouldn’t do anything other than eating and sleeping. He spent days, weeks and months in his bed. The king became a couch potato and the people started to worry about him.

One day, the king realized that he couldn’t even move his body. He invited famous doctors from various parts of his country and offered them generous rewards to make him fit. Unfortunately, none could help the king gain his health or fitness.

One morning, a man called Rishi visited the land of the king. He heard about the illness of the king and told one minister that he could easily cure the king. Hearing these promising words, the minister became very happy.

Since he couldn’t move his body, the fat king asked the minister to bring Rishi to the palace, but Rishi refused and ordered the king to come to meet him. After a lot of effort, the king met the man. Rishi encouraged him and said he was good and very soon the king would gain his health. He asked the king to come for treatment every day from the next day on. Also, Rishi told the king that he would treat him only if he came on foot to his place.

The king was unable to walk even a few steps on the road, but accompanied by his followers, he reached Rishi’s place. Unfortunately, Rishi wasn’t available there and his friend said the king could come and meet him the next day for treatment. This was repeated for two weeks and the king never met Rishi and never had any treatment. Suddenly, the king realized that he was a lot lighter, lost a lot of weight and felt more active than before. He realized the reason why Rishi asked him to reach his place by walking.

Very soon, the king regained his health, and the people were very happy in his kingdom. The king had a lot of wealth, but no amount of wealth could make him healthy.

【題目】 One of Britain’s bravest women told yesterday how she helped to catch suspected police killer David Bieber -- and was thanked with flowers by the police. It was also said that she could be in line for a share of up to 30,000 reward money.

Vicki Brown, 30, played a very important role in ending the nationwide manhunt. Vicki, who has worked at the Royal Hotel for four years, told of her terrible experience when she had to steal into Bibber’s bedroom and to watch him secretly. Then she waited alone for three hours while armed police prepared to storm the building.

She said: "I was very nervous. But when I opened the hotel door and saw 20 armed policemen lined up in the car park I was so glad they were there.”

The alarm had been raised because Vicki became suspicious of the guest who checked in at 3 pm the day before New Year’s Eve with little luggage and wearing sunglasses and a hat pulled down over his face. She said: "He didn’t seem to want to talk too much and make any eye contact (接觸)." Vicki, the only employee on duty, called her bosses Margaret, 64, and husband Stan McKale, 65, who phoned the police at 11 pm.

Officers from Northumbria Police called Vicki at the hotel in Dunston, Gateshead, at about 11:30 pm to make sure that this was the wanted man. Then they kept in touch by phoning Vicki every 15 minutes.

"It was about ten past two in the morning when the phone went again and a policeman said ‘Would you go and make yourself known to the armed officers outside?". My heart missed a beat."

Vicki quietly showed eight armed officers through passages and staircases to the top floor room and handed over the key.

"I realized that my bedroom window overlooks that part of the hotel, so I went to watch. I could not see into the man’s room, but I could see the passage. The police kept shouting at the man to come out with his hands showing. Then suddenly he must have come out because they shouted for him to lie down while he was handcuffed.

1Vicki could get over 30,000 reward money, couldn’t she?

2How did Vicki feel when she opened the hotel door and saw 20 armed policeman lined up in the car park?

3Why did Vicki become suspicious of David Bieber?

4Where was David Bieber most probably handcuffed?

5How long did the whole event probably last from the moment Bieber came to the hotel to the arrival of some armed officers?

6What might Vicki be thinking as her heart missed a beat?

【題目】 There are many kinds of music in the world, such as pop music, country music, rock music and so on. But have you heard of grime? It's OK to say no because it's less than 20 years since this kind of music was invented in the UK.

Hip-hop and grime are both noisy. They reflect the thoughts of young people. But if you know nothing about underground music culture, it's difficult to tell the differences between them. For example, grime singers sing with strong accents(口音) , giving a special feeling to their songs.

Leshurr, known as the "Grime Queen", said that she once tried to hide her accent, for she didn't want people to know where she was from. But one day, she realized she didn't need to change herself just to satisfy other people. There is no doubt that this is the spirit of grime: always by yourself.

There is one more difference between hip-hop and grime. Hip-hop is mainly about being rich and famous while grime singers pay more attention to social problems like wars and illnesses.

Nowadays, grime has begun to show people its strange beauty. Although grime is only popular with some young people, one thing is for sure: in grime, singers always stay true to themselves.

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,判斷句子正(T)、誤(F)。

1Grime was invented in the UK more than 20 years ago.

2Both grime and hip-hop reflect the thoughts of young people.

3Leshurr's decision to be herself shows the spirit of grime.

4Grime singers are more interested in being rich and famous.

5In the UK, most people enjoy listening to grime very much.

【題目】 Friendships can be difficult because often people aren’t as honest and open as they should be. Sometimes, people finally get hurt.

Most problems with friendships come up because people are just too selfish to care about the things that their friends need. They care about their own needs much more, which makes it hard for friendships to work. However, being selfish is part of human nature. A person is put together in order to take care of himself and his own needs, not necessarily those needs of other people. Even though being selfish is something that all humans are born with, it is something that everyone should be against.

The best thing to remember when you are a friend to anyone is that you need to treat your friends the same way that you’d like to be treated (對(duì)待). This is wonderful advice for a friendship, because it is really the only way to make sure that you are giving your friends everything you would want to be given in a friendship. Whenever you have a question about how you should treat a friend, it is easy to find an answer simply by asking yourself what you would like your friend to do for you, if he or she is in your shoes.

Even if you’re al ways thinking about how you’d like to be treated, and your friends are too, there are problems that come up from time to time in each friendship, and it is important to understand how to deal with these problems so that you can build stronger and healthier friendships. Problems like friends getting boyfriends or girlfriends and not spending enough time with their friends, or even friends finding new friends and leaving old friends behind are problems that will probably come up with one or more of your friendships. It is important to know how to deal with these friend problems so that you can keep your friends and make new ones. No one wants to have a broken friendship.

1This passage mainly talks about ________.

A. the importance of friendships

B. the advantages of friendships

C. the problems of friendships

D. the disadvantages of friendships
