1．阅读理解
    More than anything else in the world, Lion liked being King of the jungle. He walked all around, showing off his power and pride.
    Each day Lion took a long, lazy sleep under the shade of his favourite tree. He always dreamed of weaker animals bowing（鞠躬） before him.
    One day Mouse ran through the jungle and tripped（绊倒） over Lion's huge paws. Lion woke up with a start. "How dare you wake me up!" he shouted angrily. Lion grabbed Mouse with one paw. "On second thought, I'm in the mood for a snack, and you'll make a delicious meal," he said.
    Mouse cried out, "King Lion, please spare（饶恕） me! If you let me live, I will always remember your kindness. And, some day, I might be able to help you."
    "How could such a powerless little mouse ever help me?" That thought made Lion laugh so much that he decided to let Mouse go. A week later, Lion was walking through the jungle on the way to his favourite tree when he stepped onto a hunter's net. The net scooped him up. No matter how he twisted and turned, he couldn't escape.
    When Mouse heard Lion's frightened shouts, he raced to help. Mouse quickly chewed（咬）through the ropes to make a hole in the net. Soon, Lion moved out and was free. Lion looked down at the little mouse. "Thank you for saving my life," said Lion, smiling his widest smile. "I was mistaken. You are not a powerless little mouse. You are a great friend!"

2．阅读理解
    Every morning my father buys a newspaper on his way to work. Every evening my mother looks through magazines at home. And every night, I look at the posters with photos of David Beckham and Yao Ming on my bedroom wall before I go to sleep. Can we imagine life without paper or print?
    Paper was first created about 2,000 years ago, and has been made from silk, cotton, bamboo, and, since the 19th century, from wood. People learned to write words on paper to make a book. But in those days, books could only be produced one at a time by hand.  As a result, they were expensive and rare. And because there weren't many books, few people learned to read.
    Then printing was invented in China. When printing was developed greatly at the beginning of the 11th century, books could be produced more quickly and cheaply. As a result, more people learned to read. After that, knowledge and ideas spread quickly.
    Today information can be received online, downloaded from the Internet rather than found in books, and information can be kept on CD-ROMs or machines such as MP3 players.
    Computers are already used in classrooms, and newspapers and magazines can already be read online. So will books be replaced by computers one day? No, I don't think the Yao Ming posters on my bedroom wall will ever be replaced by a two-metre-high computer!
（1）What does the writer do before he goes to sleep?
A. He reads books.                                                B. He reads newspapers.
C. He looks through magazines.                         D. He looks at the posters on the wall.
2）When was paper first created?
A. About 2,000 years ago.                                    B. In the 19th century.
C. About 1,000 years ago.                                    D. In the 11th century.
（3）Why were books expensive and rare before the invention of printing?
A. People could not read.
B. People could not write words on paper.
C. People could not find silk, cotton or bamboo.
D. People could only produce books one at a time by hand.
（4）What happened after books became cheaper?
A. People didn't want to buy books.                 B. Printing was invented in China.
C. Knowledge and ideas spread quickly.           D. The Internet was introduced to people soon.

3．阅读理解
    An old man was fishing in the bank of a river. A girl came to see him fishing. The old man was really good at fishing and it didn't take long for him to catch a full basket of fish. The old man saw that the girl was very cute, and he wanted to give her a whole basket of fish. But the girl shook her head. The old man was surprised and asked "Why don't you want the fish?"
    The girl replied, "I want the fishing rod（竿）in your hands.”
    The old man asked, "Why do you want the rod?"
    "It doesn't take long to eat all the fish in a basket. But if I have the fishing rod, I can go fishing by myself and I won't be afraid of not having any more fish to eat."
    I think you will certainly say that the girl is very smart. Wrong! If she doesn't know how to fish, she can not have fish to eat, even though she has the fishing rod. It's useless to only have a fishing rod. Fishing skills are the most important, not the fishing rod.
    Too many people think that if they have a "fishing rod" in their life, they will no longer fear the wind and rain. They are just like the girl, who thought that if she had a fishing rod, she would have fish to eat.

（3）The writer thought the girl was      after she explained why she didn't want the fish.
A. smart                               B. hard-working                               C. silly                               D. lazy

    What would you say when we told you that you could learn to speak a new language in only 7 days? Pretty unbelievable, right? But how could it be? To find out, we spoke to David－one of our brave Babbel learners－to see how the Babbel app successfully got him speaking French in just one week.
    How much time did you learn each day?
    I didn't need to give my whole life over to learning French. Each Babbel lesson takes only 15 minutes, and I give myself the certain aim（目标） of finishing three Babbel lessons daily. This took 45 minutes each day.
    How did the Babbel app help you learn so quickly?
    The Babbel app has a course plan for beginners that taught me how to make sentences in French within the first few days. Then I was able to personalize（个性化）my learning by choosing lessons on eating, drinking, music, culture, travelling and so on. This made me quickly enlarge（扩大） my vocabulary!
    This way of learning kept me really interested, and made sure I wasn't bored with grammar practice that we all remember from school!
    "After 7 days I was able to introduce myself in French, talk about my hobbies and interests, and most importantly, communicating with a native（本国的） French speaker in a real talk and I could even play a joke or two!"
    Would you introduce this app to others?
    Certainly! Babbel has 14 languages to choose from, so if you're thinking about brushing up on your German for a business trip, or learning a bit of Japanese for next year's summer vacation, you'll be happy to hear that you only need an app, 7 days of learning to get you perfect!
