1 . That year, I was a Junior 2 student. Falling off the stairs hurt me in the head. Almost everyone thought I was dead. But they were wrong. However, it was difficult to get back to normal (正常的) life. I had to leave school and learn everything, walking, talking, and yes, maths.

To help me with that task, Mrs. Pillar volunteered to come to the hospital and later to my house once a week. We began with basic maths skills. As time passed by, I made progress.

I remember very vividly(清晰地) how she came to my home on Sundays, sat with me at the kitchen table and threw different coins on the table. She asked me to show her 38 cents, 17 cents, 63 cents. It was challenging, but she also made it fun.

After a year and a half, I had progressed a lot, both in body and mind, to return to school. Seven years later, I graduated from the University of Texas at the top of my class.

As years went by, I always kept in touch with Mrs. Pillar. Unluckily, one day my parents told me that Mrs. Pillar had been in hospital because she suffered a stroke(中风).

Now it was my turn to help her. Mrs. Pillar lay in bed, unable to speak or know anybody around. I pulled some coins out of my pocket, dropped them on her bed, and asked her to show me 12 cents. The nurse thought that my action was very strange until one day Mrs. Pillar smiled happily as I began working with her — just as she had worked with me years before. She made progress every day and was moved out of ICU(重症监护室) and finally out of hospital.

One day, I called to wish her a happy New Year. She spoke into the phone excitedly, "Happy New Year to you and your family, Michael. Thank you for everything you've done for me." I quickly said, "Thank you for everything you've done for me."

Mrs. Pillar was one of my Junior 2 teachers, but she taught me so much more about life than only maths.

1. Which of the following is the correct order of what happened in the story?
a. Mrs. Pillar suffered a stroke and was in hospital.
b. I fell off the stairs and had to leave school.

3. The writer asked Mrs. Pillar to show him 12 cents in the hospital in order to ________.

A．help Mrs. Pillar just as Mrs. Pillar helped him	B．play an interesting game with Mrs. Pillar

2 . It may be strange that three fourths of the world is covered with water, but we still don’t have enough fresh, clean and safe drinking water. Most of the earth’s water is saltwater of the seas. Less than 3% of the water in the world is fresh. 68.7% of freshwater is in the form of ice in the polar areas, and much freshwater is polluted and dangerous to use. Polluted water usually causes death among children under five in the poor countries.

In some countries, women and children spend much of their time going out to collect water. They often walk many kilometers each day to get just enough water for their families to cook, wash and drink. And they can’t carry back much because they have to walk over rough (坑洼的) fields and carry a heavy bucket (桶).

Children have to help their mothers carry water, so they may not be able to go to school, or they may be so tired when they get there that they have difficulty studying. They may even have to spend the whole day without drinking any water as there may not be any clean water at school, either.

A large part of UNICEF’s work is bringing safe water to people in need of it. Last year, UNICEF built up almost 90,000 water systems (系统) for 20 million people. It just wants to help more people keep alive. A well (井) may mean the difference between life and death.

1. Which may not be the reason for not having enough freshwater?

A．Much of the freshwater is polluted.

B．Most of the freshwater is in the form of ice.

C．Most of the water is salty.

D．There are too many people on the earth.

2. The writer wants to tell us ________ through the second and third paragraphs.

A．water can spread diseases

B．there would be no life without water

C．water is important

D．it is hard for some people to get water

3. Which of the following is NOT true?

A．75% of the earth is covered with water.

B．In some countries people have to go a long way to get water.

C．If children aren’t able to get water home, they can’t go to school.

D．UNICEF is trying its best to help people in need of water.

4. The last sentence means that ________.

A．death is different from life	B．a well can save someone
C．you can get water from the well	D．if you don’t use a well, you may die

The man _________ a starter, main dish and dessert. According to Fontes, the bill added up to $ 121.80. When the man asked for the bill, the _________ of the restaurant told the waiter to let him eat for free.

A _________ from England Radio having lunch with her friends took a picture of the man and the waiter and _________ it on the Internet, saying, “We just watched a great example of good qualities.
