After that, we went on down the river. It was very dark that night and it wasn’t easy to see where we were going. Suddenly, a big steamboat came at us very fast, and the next minute it was right over us. Jim and I jumped off the raft (木筏) into the water. The boat hit the raft and went on up the river.

When I came up out of the water, I couldn’t see Jim anywhere. I called out his name again and again, but there was no answer. “He’s dead!” I thought. Slowly, I swam to the side of the river and got out. I saw that I was near a big

old wooden house. Suddenly a lot of very angry dogs jumped out at me. They made a terrible noise and someone called from the house, “Who’s there?”

“George Jackson,” I answered quickly. “I’ve fallen off a river boat.”

Well, the people who lived in that house were very kind, and they took me in and gave me some new clothes and a good meal. I told them that my family were all dead, so they said I could stay with them as long as I wanted. It was a beautiful house and the food was good there, so I stayed.

A few days later one of the slaves in the house came to me and said, “Come with me!” Together, we went down to some trees by the river. “In there!” he said and went away.

On the ground, I found a man, asleep. It was Jim! I was really pleased to see him. When the steamboat hit the raft, Jim told me, the raft didn’t break up. Jim swam after it and caught it. Then he began to look for me.

We decided to leave at once. It’s all right living in a house for a little while, but you feel more free and easy and comfortable on a raft. 48. What happened LAST in the story? A. George saw a big house. B. George got some new clothes. C. George found Jim on the ground. D. George jumped off the raft into the water. 49. Why did George Jackson answer “quickly” when someone called from the house? A. George felt afraid and nervous. B. George felt happy and lucky. C. George really wanted to stay there. D. George didn’t want to lie to him. 50. Which of these old sayings best fits this story? A. It never rains but it pours. B. Every dog has its day. C. Burn the candle at both ends. D. Many hands make light work.

It is most difficult for parents to decide whether to have a second child or not.

It is often heard that a single child is likely to be a lonely child. There are no other children in the family for the child to talk to or play with. An only child is not able to get along well with children of his age. Some parents feel sad about making the decisions to have only one child. But the number of parents choosing to have only one child is increasing in many parts of the world. In the US, for example, more than14 percent of women between 18 and 34 plan to have just one child. The same can be seen in the UK. In Japan, the average(平均) number of children born per family had gone down to 1.42 by 1996.

For some single-child parents, especially who are busy working every day, time and energy seem to be overwhelming. They don’t have enough time and energy to share with more children.

For other people, money is their first consideration. Many couples in Japan choose not to have large families as the cost of supporting a child up to the age of 18 reaches around $160,000. 51. According to the passage, why is a single child likely to be lonely? A. Because his parents don’t love him. B. Because he doesn’t have holidays.

C. Because he doesn’t have a brother or a sister to talk to or play with. D. Because there are other children in the family.

52. What does the underlined word “overwhelming” mean in the last paragraph? A. 压倒一切的 B. 宽松的 C. 流行的 D. 充足的 53.Why don’t parents choose to have a second child? A. The cost of supporting a child is so high.

B. Parents are too busy working every day to share their time and energy with more children. C. Some parents can’t still get their first child’s agreement. D. Both A and B.

Argentina in the late nineteenth century was an exciting place. Around 1870, it was experiencing an economic boom(经济繁荣), and the capital, Buenos Aires, attracted many people. Farmers, as well as many foreigners from Spain and Italy, came to Buenos Aires looking for jobs. These jobs didn’t pay well, and the people felt lonely with their new life in the city. As the unhappy newcomers mixed together in the poor parts of the city, the dance known as the tango came into being.

At the beginning the tango was a dance of the lower classes(阶级). It was danced in the bars and streets. At that time women were fewer than men, so if a man didn’t want to be left out, his only choice was to dance with another man so that he could attract the attention of the women. Gradually, the dance spread into the upper classes of Argentinean society and became more respectable.

In Europe at this time, strong interest in dance from around the world was beginning. The interest in international dance was especially strong in Paris. Every kind of dance from ballet to belly dancing could be found in Paris theaters. After tango dances from Argentina arrive in Europe, they began to draw the interest of the public as they performed their exciting dance in cafes, though not everyone liked the new dance, the dance did find enough supporters to make it popular.

The popularity of the tango continued to grow in many other parts of the world. Soldiers(士兵) who returned to the United States from World War I brought the tango to North America, It reached Japan in 1926, and in 2003 a tango dancer of South Korea was hired to act as a kind of dance ambassador(大使) and push for tango dancing throughout South Korea. 54. According to the article, the tango dances came from ______ in the beginning.

A. belly dancers B. American soldiers C. a Spanish city D. the capital of Argentina

55. If a man didn’t want to be left out in the tango dancing, he had to ______.

A. dance in the bars or streets B. dance with another man C. look for jobs in Argentina D. perform dances in cafes 56. What do we know from paragraph 3?

A. People in Europe didn’t have much interest in dancing. B. Both ballet and tango can be found in Paris theatres.

C. Ballet dancing was very popular in Paris at that time. D. Everyone liked tango dancing when it came to Europe. 57. What can be the best title for the text?

A. How to Dance the Tango B. The History of the Tango C. How to improve Tango skills D. The Modern Tango Boom

There are many things you can do to keep friendship strong forever.

Trust is very important in keeping any relationship strong and long lasting. If you trust the person whom you have a good relationship with and the other person also trust you in the same way, then you two have a good relationship.

You can remember important date of your friends such as their birthdays and wish them or give gifts to them on the special days. Many people say that money is the most important thing to consider, but remember friendship is not about money. You can find something small and inexpensive for their gifts or send online cards.

A friend should also always help others even when it is not very convenient. So have a helping hand ready at all times.

Sometimes distance makes relationships even closer. So, if you are far from your friends, there are many ways you can remain in contact. You can use email, chat programs, and you can also write a blog and share your daily life activities with your friends.

If there is anything that makes you happy, share it with your friends. Listen to their thoughts as well. If they have achieved something noticeable, congratulate them and celebrate with them. I have seen good friendships and then there is unhealthy competition between two friends. Though this may not happen in many cases, it is better to keep this idea in mind since it may happen to you. As far as I have seen and experienced, it will be better not to either lend to or borrow money from your good friend. Of course, we have to do this with friends. But, attention should be paid so that your friendship may not end. How to Keep Your Friendship Stronger Tips Details ★ Don't 1 your good friend so that he or she will treat you as well. ★ Give your 2 , small gifts or send online greetings to your friends on their birthdays. ★ Don’t connect friendship with money. ★ Try to send good friends small and inexpensive gifts. Something should be done ★ Be ready to give a hand to your friends as much as possible. ★ Use 3 technology（技术）to contact your friends far away. ★ Share the 4 with your friends. ★ Congratulate your friends on their achievements and celebrate them together. ★ 5 competing(竞争) with each other in an unhealthy way.
