He had three sons and they all worked in the same factory where he had worked. After the war had begun, his sons were all made to join the army one after another and they all died in the fights. The old man was very sad. He didnt have enough food and was often hungry. And nobody helped him and he didnt know how to go on living. It was a very cold winter night. The old man couldnt go to sleep. He had been hungry for two days and it was so cold in his room that ice could be seen. He had to get up and began to run in the room until he lay down on the floor. The next morning he had to beg from door to door. He had been to a lot of cities and knew a lot. Once he came to a village, but the villagers were all poor and couldnt give him anything. He was too hungry to go to another village. He thought hard and found a way. He came to a police station and called out “Hitler is a pig!” Out came an old policeman at once. He took the old man into a room and gave him some bread and a cup of tea. Then he said, “Dont say so in our village, sir!”“Im sorry, sir”, said the old man. “I dont know its Hitlers hometown.” “No, no, sir”, the policeman said in a hurry, “Its a pigs hometown!”1.The old mans sons joined the army because _ .A. they were all strong B. they had to do soC. they wanted to be full D. they loved their country2.The old man was sad because .A. his three sons had to join the armyB. he lived in the small town aloneC. his three sons lost their lives during the warD. he had neither food nor clothes3.The villagers didnt give the old man any food because .A. they were also hungry B. his sons were in the armyC. they werent kind hearted D. they hated him4.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A.

Dont look for old weather reports. Looking at the tree rings is more important. Correct weather reports date back only one century, but some trees can provide an exact record of weather even further back.It is natural that a tree would grow best in a climate with plenty of sunlight and rainfall. It is also expected that little sunlight or rainfall would reduce the growth of a tree. The change from a favorable to an unfavorable climate can be found out by the reading the rings in a tree trunk. To find out the weather of ten years ago, you can count the rings of a tree trunk from the outside to the inside. If the tenth ring is far from the other rings, then it is certain that plenty of sunny and rainy weather occurred. If the rings are close together, then the climate was bad for the tree. Studying trees is important not only for the history of weather, but also for the history of man. In an area of New Mexico you can find only sandno trees or people. However, many centuries ago a large population lived there. They left suddenly. Why? A scientist studied the pattern of the rings of dead trees that had grown there. He made up his mind that the people had to leave because they had cut down all the trees. Trees were necessary to make fires and buildings. So, after the people destroyed the trees, they had to move.
