A
When you are little, the whole world feels like a big playground. I was living in Conyers, Georgia the summer it all happened. I was a second grader, but my best friend Stephanie was only in the first grade. Both of our parents were at work and most of the time they let us go our own way.
It was a hot afternoon and we decided to have an adventure in Stephanie’s basement. As I opened the basement door, before us lay the biggest room, full of amazing things like guns, dolls, and old clothes. I ran downstairs, and spotted a red steel can. It was paint. I looked beyond it and there lay even more paint in bright colors like purple, orange, blue and green.
“Stephanie, I just found us a project for the day. Get some paintbrushes. We are fixing to paint.” She screamed with excitement as I told her of my secret plans and immediately we got to work. We gathered all the brushes we could find and moved all of our materials to my yard. There on the road in front of my house, we painted big stripes ( 条纹) of colors across the pavement (人行道). Stripe by stripe, our colors turned into a beautiful rainbow. It was fantastic!
The sun was starting to sink. I saw a car in the distance and jumped up as I recognized the car. It was my mother. I couldn’t wait to show her my masterpiece. The car pulled slowly into the driveway and from the look on my mother’s face, I could tell that I was in deep trouble.
My mother shut the car door and walked towards me. Her eyes glaring, she shouted, “What in the world were you thinking? I understood when you made castles out of leaves, and climbed the neighbors’ trees, but this! Come inside right now!” I stood there glaring back at her for a minute, angry because she had insulted (侮辱) my art.
“Now go clean it up!” Mother and I began cleaning the road. Tears ran down my cheeks as I saw my beautiful rainbow turn into black cement(水泥).
Though years have now passed, I still wonder where my rainbow has gone. I wonder if, maybe when I get older, I can find my rainbow and never have to brush it away. I guess we all need some sort of rainbow to brighten our lives from time to time and to keep our hopes and dreams colorful.

21. What did the writer want to do when his mother came home?
A. To introduce Stephanie to her.
B. To show his artwork to her.
C. To put the materials back in the yard.
D. To prevent her from seeing his painting.
22. In his mother’s eyes, the writer _____.
A. always caused trouble B. was a born artist
C. was a problem solver D. worked very hard
23. The underlined word “rainbow” in the last paragraph refers to _____.
A. the rainbow in the sky
B. something imaginative and fun
C. the stripes on the pavement
D. important lessons learned in childhood
24. It can be learned from the passage that parents should ______.
A. protect rather than destroy children’ s dreams
B. value friendship among children
C. discover the hidden talent in children
D. encourage children to paint
B
“Life is speeding up. Everyone is getting unwell.”
This may sound like something someone would say today. But in fact, an unknown citizen who lives in Rome in AD53 wrote it.
We all love new inventions. They are exciting, amazing and can even change our lives. But have all these developments really improved the quality of our lives?
Picture this: You’re rushing to finish your homework on the computer. Your mobile phone rings, a QQ message from your friend appears on the screen, the noise from the television is getting louder and louder. Suddenly the computer goes blank and you lose all your work. Now you have to stay up all night to get it done. Why do you think people who live far away from noisy cities, who have no telephones, no cars, not even any electricity often seem to be happier? Perhaps because they lead simpler lives.
One family in the UK went back in time to see what life was like without all the inventions we have today. They had no washing machine, microwave, computer or mobile phones.
The grandmother, Lyn, said: “It was hard physically. But not mentally.” She believed life was less materialistic (重物质享受的). “The more things you have, the more difficult life becomes,” she said. The boys said they fought less. Probably, they said, because there was less to fight over, such as their computer.
Here are some simple ways to beat the stress often caused by our inventions!
Don’t be available all the time. Turn off your mobile phone at certain times of the day. Don’t check your e-mails every day.
Don’t reply to somebody as soon as they leave a text message just because you can. It may be fun at first, but it soon gets annoying.
With the Internet and so much information available, we are expected to know everything all the time, but don’t be afraid to say sometimes: “I don’t know”.
Make sure you spend some time talking to your family. Set aside one evening a week when you don’t turn on the television. Play cards and chat instead.

25. The passage is mainly about ______.
A. problems with technology
B. improvements of our life with technology
C. the important roles technology plays in our everyday life 
D. major changes which will be likely to happen to technology
26. The writer uses the quote (引语) at the beginning of the story to ______.
A. introduce the topic
B. tell us what life was like long time ago
C. make the passage interesting
D. point out that everyone is experiencing some serious problems
27. Why did the family choose to spend some time in a 1940s house?
A. Because they loved to live simple lives.
B. Because they were curious(好奇的) about how people lived without modern inventions.
C. Because they were troubled by modern inventions.
D. Because living in a different time would be a lot of fun for them.
28. What do you think the underlined word “available” means?
A. busy on line.  B. happy.   C. be able to.      D. be found by others.
C
I was in a rush as always, but this time it was for an important date(约会) I just couldn’t be late for! I found myself at a checkout counter behind an elderly woman in no hurry as she paid for her groceries（食品杂货）. A PhD student with not a lot of money, I had hurried into the store to pick up some flowers.
We were in Boston, a place not always known for small conversation between strangers. The woman stopped emptying her basket and looked up at me. She smiled. It was a nice smile – warm and comforting – and I returned her gift by smiling back.
“Must be a special lady, whoever it is that will be getting those beautiful flowers,” she said.
“Yes, she’s special,” I said, and then to my surprise, the words kept coming out.
“It’s only our second date, but somehow I am just having the feeling she’s ‘the one’,” Jokingly, I added, “The only problem is that I can’t figure out why she’d want to date a guy like me.”
“Well, I think she’s very lucky to have a boyfriend who brings her such lovely flowers and who is obviously in love with her,” the woman said. “My husband used to bring me flowers every week – even when times were tough and we didn’t have much money. Those were unbelievable days; he was very romantic and – of course – I miss him since he has passed away.”
I paid for my flowers as she was gathering up her groceries. Almost without any hesitation（犹豫）, I walked up to her. I touched her on the shoulder and said, “You were right, you know. These flowers are indeed for a very special lady.” I handed her the flowers and thanked her for such a nice conversation.
It took her a moment to realize that I was giving her the flowers I had just bought. “You have a wonderful evening,” I said. I left her with a big smile and my heart warmed as I saw her smelling the beautiful flowers.
I was slightly late for my date that night and told my girlfriend the above story. A couple of years later, when I finally worked up（增加） the courage to ask her to marry me, she told me it was that night that I won her heart.
29. What does the phrase “her gift” refer to?
A. Her smile. B. Her words. C. Her flowers. D. Her politeness.

30. The writer gave his flowers to the elderly lady because she ______.
A. started the conversation first B. gave him encouragement
C. allowed him to pay first D. liked the flowers very much
31. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. The writer was originally quite sure about the reason why his girlfriend was fond of him.
B. The writer managed to buy some flowers for his girlfriend on each date.
C. People in Boston didn’t always start small talk with someone they didn’t know.
D. It took the writer a while to decide whether to give the elderly lady the flowers or not.
32. What can be concluded from the passage?
A. Flowers are important for a date. B. Small conversation is helpful.
C. Elderly people need respecting. D. Love and kindness are rewarding.
