His early life was not happy. His father was a Selfish man who drank too much and could not support his family properly. His mother was a disappointed, unhappy woman who found more pleasure in studying music than in her children. Shaw and his two sisters received little love and attention from their mother while they were young. At the age of ten Shaw entered school. At first he was the best student, but soon he was at or near the bottom of his class. Although he did not like school, Shaw was a good, bright, curious student. His lifelong interest in everything from music and art to machines and medicine began at school. The interests of this tireless schoolboy were literature and music. He often entertained his classmates with stories he read. Early at the age of fifteen, he went to work in an office. He did well as an office clerk, but after five years he decided that he wanted to be a writer. He left Ireland and went to London, where he began to write seriously. Seventy-four years later the great dramatist died.21. Whats the main idea of this passage?A. Its a story aboutGeorge Bernard ShawB. It refers to George Shaws mother.C.

Not only can one earn $9-$12 an hour, but they can also get the tips (小费). Most people that visit a restaurant dont just have good food. They come here to relax and have a good time. Besides serving food quickly, a young waiter who talks to them politely with a smile on his face will make the diners enjoy their time at the restaurant.Work in a libraryIf one is fond of books, working in a library is another suitable choice. Besides the pay is good, it offers a lot of free time when students can actually sit down and finish their homework. So on returning home, they would have time to hang around with friends or just relax. So working in a library is an excellent part-time job for teens, especially for school students.Internet jobsThere are many ways of making money through online jobs like clicking on advertisements, visiting sites and signing up with them. However, such online jobs dont pay well. A better Internet job for teens is to complete online surveys. These are quite simple surveys that usually ask one about his/ her opinions and ideas. Many companies use these ideas to make products designed for teenagers.25. What does the writer think of the job as a waiter/waitress?A. It needs a period of training. B. It pays much more than other jobs.C. It can improve ones leadership skills.D. Making diners comfortable is part of the job.26 A student who is busy with his research paper will probably choose to work _.A. in a restaurant B. in a library C. on the Internet D. in an IT company27. The writer wrote this text to _.A. tell us the importance of doing part-time jobsB. advise teenagers how to choose a part-time job C. teach young people how to make lots of money D. introduce his/her experience of doing part-time jobs28.

The teens usually express their true opinions.C       Animals can be reproduced by technology now; researchers can clone them. A clone is an exact copy of another animal or plant. Scientists have cloned a sheep which they have named Dolly. Researchers took genes from a ewe (母羊) and used them to create a copy (Dolly) of the ewe. Why are scientists doing this research? One reason is to get information about genes so they can improve our health. They also want to learn how better farm animals can be produced. Cloning is a controversial issue for people. Some people think it is good because this research can help us, but other people think cloning is unacceptable. Some people think it might be possible to save endangered animals by cloning them. Tigers, elephants, and other endangered animals might be saved in this way. In China, pandas are endangered because they are hunted and they are losing their habitat, so some Chinese scientists want to try to clone pandas to save them from extinction. I dont really like the idea of cloning animals, but I dont think I want panda to become extinct. If the best way to save them is to make cloned pandas, they must be cloned. I want to live with a lot of animals and nature. I dont want animals to die out, especially pandas. I think humans must think more about protecting animals and nature. Maybe cloning is the way to save all endangered animals. 29. What is Dolly like? A It is like other ordinary sheep we often see. B. It is a bit like the ewe. C. It is exactly like the ewe researchers took genes from. D It is like a perfect sheep that researchers want to make.30. What is the technology scientists use to clone animals? A. They use the technology of animal improvement. B. they take genes from an animal and use them to make a copy of it. C. They change the genes of a ewe and then get them improved. D. They combine advantages of some animals to make a better one.31. By studying cloning, scientists can_. A. make copies of many famous people in the world. B. start a new industry where many more people may find jobs. C. find ways to feed the whole world. D. improve our health and produce fine animals.32. From the passage we can learn that_. A. people are all for the technology of cloning. B. only scientists are interested in cloning. C. people dont hold the same opinion about cloning. D. all the people think cloning unacceptable. DThe purpose of keeping fit is to avoid illness ,resist the mental and physical fatigue疲劳that make us more likely to contract infections ,and above all to feel more pleasure in being alive. Research has shown the value of a balanced diet ,fresh air, sunshine ,enough rest and some forms of regular exercise for everyone .If everyone followed this plan ,the number of people visiting the doctor and going to hospital would be considerably reduced.Unfortunately ,although most people acknowledge the importance of physical fitness ,not enough of us put this into practice .We spend too much time watching others from the comfort of an armchair or a seat in the stand at a sports stadium.One reason why people who are physically fit to live longer is that they do not put the heart under excessive strain过度劳累and so they reduce the risk of heart and blood vessel血管diseases .They also avoid suffering the consequences of weakened muscles ,which are the cause of a great deal of back and abdominal腹部的trouble.About 640 muscles for about 45% of our body's weight ,they must have the ability to store energy and be continually supplied with fuel by the blood .Sensible exercise ,suited to each individual and preferably undertaken on the advice of a doctor ,is the best insurance of meeting these requirements.33.Why do people want to prevent illness?
