　　A

　　Uncle Li and Uncle Wang are good friends. They live next to each other and their farms are both at the foot of the mountain. So they can help each other. But neither of them likes to use his head. They're both poor though they work hard. Most villagers have built new houses, but they still live in the low and broken houses. They never find out why.

　　One day Uncle Li went to town to buy some medicine for his wife. In the town he heard the apples in a city were expensive. He told Uncle Wang about it as soon as he went back. They decided to carry some apples to the city. They borrowed some money from their friends and bought nearly 1,000 kilograms of apples in the villages and carried them to the city on a tractor. Bad luck! A lot of apples have already been carried there when they arrived. A few days later they had to sell them at a low price. They felt unhappy and returned to their village.

　　"I can't understand why we sustained (蒙受) losses in business while others always profit (盈利)" Uncle Li asked one day. "The tractor was too small." Uncle Wang said without thinking. "We'll carry more apples on a truck next time!""I agree!" said Uncle Li. "How foolish we were!"

　　Good afternoon，and welcome to England. We hope that your visit here will be a pleasant one. Today, I would like to draw your attention to a few of our laws.

　　The first one is about drinking. Now, you may not buy alcohol (酒) in this country if you are under 18 years of age, nor may your friends buy it for you. Secondly, noise. Enjoy yourselves by all means, but please don’t make unnecessary noise，particularly at night. We ask you to respect other people who may wish to be quiet. Thirdly，crossing the road. Be careful！The traffic moves on the left side of the road in this country. Use pedestrian crossings (人行橫道) and do not take any chances when crossing the road. My next point is about throwing away rubbish. It is an offence (違法行為) to drop rubbish in the street. When you have something to throw away, please put it in your pocket and take it home, or put it in a dustbin. Finally, it is against the law to buy cigarettes or tobacco if you are under 16 years of age.

　　I’d like to finish by saying that if you need any help, you should get in touch with your local police station, who will be pleased to help you.

　　Now, are there any questions?

　　5.How many laws are there discussed in the speech?

　　A. three

　　B. four

　　C. five

　　D. six

　　6.From the speech we learn that______.

　　A．in this country，if you are under 18 years of age，you may not buy alcohol，but your friend can buy it for you.

　　B．you can’t make noise at any time

　　C．because the traffic moves on the left side of the road, you must use pedestrian crossings when crossing the road

　　D．you may buy cigarettes or tobacco if you are above 16 years of age

　　7.Who do you think is most likely to make the speech?

　　A. a visitor

　　B a lawyer

　　C a policeman

　　D a worker at a hotel

　　C

　　Happiness is for everyone. You don't need to care about those people who have beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools or those who have nice cars and a lot of money and so on. Why? Because those who have big houses may often feel lonely and those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads in their free time.

　　In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. When you are in trouble at school, your friends will help you; when you study hard at your lessons, your parents are always taking good care of your life and your health; when you get a success, your friends will say congratulations to you; when you do something wrong, people around you will help you to correct it. And when you do something good to others, you will feel happy, too. All these are your happiness. If you notice a bit of them, you can see that happiness is always around you.

　　Happiness doesn't mean money. It is a feeling of your heart. When you are poor, you can also say you are very happy, because you have something that can't be bought with money. When you meet with difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy, because you have more chances to challenge yourself. As the saying goes, life is like a revolving (旋轉的) door. When it closes, it also opens. If you take every chance you get, you can be a happy and lucky person.

　　8．When you do something wrong, people around you will ________.

　　A．quarrel with you

　　B．help you correct it

　　C．do something wrong like you

　　D．laugh at you

　　9．What will your friends say when you make great progress?

　　A．Oh, so do I.

　　B．Congratulations!

　　C．Good luck!

　　D．Just so so!

　　10．Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

　　A．People who have cars would never like to walk in the open air.

　　B．You can get help from others when you are in trouble.

　　C．You can still be a happy person even if you have little money.

　　D．Happiness is always around you though difficulties come towards you.

　　11．The passage mainly tells us ________.

　　A．parents always care for our life and health

　　B．we're not happy if we meet with difficulties

　　C．happiness is always around us

　　D．life is colorful
