Is your family interested in buying a dog? A
dog can be a happy addition to your family,
but if you choose the wrong kind of dog, it
can cause a lot of trouble.
Families
should sit down and thoroughly discuss the
problems involved before buying a
dog. Even if
the children in your family are the ones who want
the dog, the parents are ones
who are really
responsible for seeing that the animal is properly
cared for. If you don’t
know much about dogs,
it’s a good idea to go to the library or the ASPCA
(美国动物保护
协会)for books about various kinds of
dogs, as well as books about how to train a puppy.
In reading about the different kinds, you
should know that a dog described as very alert
may be too jumpy and bouncy. When a book
describes a dog as an ideal hunting dog, it
probably
means that the dog won’t be happy
living in a small apartment. Dogs of different
kinds vary
in popularity as the years go by.
One of the most popular dogs these days is the
German
shepherd. This is because it provides
protection as well as companionship. The family
should
be warned that these dogs grow up to be
very big, and may be too powerful for children to
handle. If space is limited, a toy dog may be
a good choice. These dogs are very small and
easy to train. They don’t need to be walked
daily, since they can exercise in the space
available in the home.
1. The main topic
of the passage is ________.
A) the care and
proper selection of dogs for family pets
B)
different breeds of dogs
C) responsibility
for seeing that dogs are properly cared for
D) different kinds of books about dogs
2.
According to the passage, who is really
responsible for the dog’s welfare?
A)
Children. B) Parents. C) Family D)
ASPCA
3. The writer suggests one can get
information about the different kinds of dogs
_________.
A) from the ASPCA
B) from the library
C) by buying a dog from
a pet store D) by reading books about dogs
4. According to the passage, why is the German
shepherd a popular dog?
A) Because they are
big and aggressive.
B) Because they provide
companionship as well as protection.
C)
Because most people are afraid of them.
D)
Because they are easy to train.
5. The toy dog
is a good choice when ________.
A) you have
small children B) your living space is not
large
C) you are afraid of large dogs
D) you live in the city

Sarah Winchester was a very rich woman. She
didn’t buy many jewels or fancy clothes.
Instead, she spent millions of dollars to
build a house. The strange thing about Sarah’s
house was that it was never finished. Work on
the house went on for 38 years because Sarah
was afraid to stop building it.
Sarah’s
house was near San Jose, California. Every day, a
crew of carpenters, plumbers,
and other
workers arrived there. Sarah wanted more rooms and
more doors and more windows,
so the workers
kept on building them. The house was seven floors
high and had 160 rooms.
There were 2,000 doors
and 10,000 windows. There were also three
elevators, nine kitchens,
47 fireplaces.

We live in the “Computer Age.” Just 35 years
ago, computers couldn’t
do much. They were
huge and costly. They used a lot of energy. Only a

humans and make fewer mistakes. They can
“remember” huge amounts of

keep track of supplies. Planes and
trains are
guided by computers. So are telephone calls and
traffic lights.

in schools and homes. In 1981 there were
30,000 computers in our classrooms. Today
there are over 700,000 computers
in our

Each May the quiet city of
Indianapolis is jammed with people. They come to
watch the “Indy 500.” This 500-mile race is
the most famous of all auto races.
The
motor race track is on the spot where an old farm
once stood. A man named
Carl Fisher bought the
land in 1909. The car was a new invention at that
time.
Hardly anyone took the idea of car
racing seriously. Yet Fisher pushed ahead with
his plan to build a track.
In two years
the track was finished. It took 450 workers, 300
mules, and seven
giant steamrollers to do the
job. First, the ground was made perfectly flat.
Then
gravel was spread over the two-and-a-
half-mile track. The top layer was made of
crushed stone and tar. Grandstands to hold
15,000 people were build.
The first races
at the track were a disaster. The road broke under
the speeding
autos. Dust and rocks flew into
drivers faces. There were several accidents. Some
drivers and even some fans were killed.
Auto racing might have ended after that. But Carl
Fisher promised to make the
track safer. This
was done by paving it with 3,000 bricks. Safer
grandstands were
also built. Now they hold
300,000 fans who attend the race each year.
1.
What kind land was the auto track built on?
A) Farmland. B) Park land. C) City land.
D) Swamp land.

seen any ________.
A) roads B) mules
C) car races D) farmers
3. The trace tack
was covered with ________.

D) stone and tar
4. What happened at first
races?

B) Cars ran out of gas.
C) People were
killed in accidents. D) Auto racing ended.

make I t________.

Is your family interested in buying a dog? A
dog can be a happy addition to your family,
but if you choose the wrong kind of dog, it
can cause a lot of trouble.
Families
should sit down and thoroughly discuss the
problems involved before buying a
dog. Even if
the children in your family are the ones who want
the dog, the parents are ones
who are really
responsible for seeing that the animal is properly
cared for. If you don’t
know much about dogs,
it’s a good idea to go to the library or the ASPCA
(美国动物保护
协会)for books about various kinds of
dogs, as well as books about how to train a puppy.
In reading about the different kinds, you
should know that a dog described as very alert
may be too jumpy and bouncy. When a book
describes a dog as an ideal hunting dog, it
probably
means that the dog won’t be happy
living in a small apartment. Dogs of different
kinds vary
in popularity as the years go by.
One of the most popular dogs these days is the
German
shepherd. This is because it provides
protection as well as companionship. The family
should
be warned that these dogs grow up to be
very big, and may be too powerful for children to
handle. If space is limited, a toy dog may be
a good choice. These dogs are very small and
easy to train. They don’t need to be walked
daily, since they can exercise in the space
available in the home.
1. The main topic
of the passage is ________.
A) the care and
proper selection of dogs for family pets
B)
different breeds of dogs
C) responsibility
for seeing that dogs are properly cared for
D) different kinds of books about dogs
2.
According to the passage, who is really
responsible for the dog’s welfare?
A)
Children. B) Parents. C) Family D)
ASPCA
3. The writer suggests one can get
information about the different kinds of dogs
_________.
A) from the ASPCA
B) from the library
C) by buying a dog from
a pet store D) by reading books about dogs
4. According to the passage, why is the German
shepherd a popular dog?
A) Because they are
big and aggressive.
B) Because they provide
companionship as well as protection.
C)
Because most people are afraid of them.
D)
Because they are easy to train.
5. The toy dog
is a good choice when ________.
A) you have
small children B) your living space is not
large
C) you are afraid of large dogs

Sarah Winchester was a very rich woman. She
didn’t buy many jewels or fancy clothes.
Instead, she spent millions of dollars to
build a house. The strange thing about Sarah’s
house was that it was never finished. Work on
the house went on for 38 years because Sarah
was afraid to stop building it.
Sarah’s
house was near San Jose, California. Every day, a
crew of carpenters, plumbers,
and other
workers arrived there. Sarah wanted more rooms and
more doors and more windows,
so the workers
kept on building them. The house was seven floors
high and had 160 rooms.
There were 2,000 doors
and 10,000 windows. There were also three
elevators, nine kitchens,
47 fireplaces.

We live in the “Computer Age.” Just 35 years
ago, computers couldn’t
do much. They were
huge and costly. They used a lot of energy. Only a
few
people were interested in them. Today
computers are smaller and cheaper.
They can do
some amazing things.
Computers have become
important for many reasons. They work faster than
humans and make fewer mistakes. They can
“remember” huge amounts of
information. A
computer can solve millions of problems in a few
seconds.

keep track of supplies. Planes and
trains are
guided by computers. So are telephone calls and
traffic lights.

in schools and homes. In 1981 there were
30,000 computers in our classrooms. Today

Each May the quiet city of
Indianapolis is jammed with people. They come to
watch the “Indy 500.” This 500-mile race is
the most famous of all auto races.
The
motor race track is on the spot where an old farm
once stood. A man named
Carl Fisher bought the
land in 1909. The car was a new invention at that
time.
Hardly anyone took the idea of car
racing seriously. Yet Fisher pushed ahead with
his plan to build a track.
In two years
the track was finished. It took 450 workers, 300
mules, and seven
giant steamrollers to do the
job. First, the ground was made perfectly flat.
Then
gravel was spread over the two-and-a-
half-mile track. The top layer was made of
crushed stone and tar. Grandstands to hold
15,000 people were build.
The first races
at the track were a disaster. The road broke under
the speeding
autos. Dust and rocks flew into
drivers faces. There were several accidents. Some
drivers and even some fans were killed.
Auto racing might have ended after that. But Carl
Fisher promised to make the
track safer. This
was done by paving it with 3,000 bricks. Safer
grandstands were
also built. Now they hold
300,000 fans who attend the race each year.
1.
What kind land was the auto track built on?
A) Farmland. B) Park land. C) City land.
D) Swamp land.

seen any ________.

races?
