I want to tell you the story of one of my old friends called Bob. His teachers called him “troublemaker”. They also said that he had no future and no hope! But now he owns a small second-hand bookstore which makes him enough money to live on and also to support his mother.
He told me that after he finished grade nine, he went to study at a technical college. He was a pretty bad student so he became one of the gang(一帮) leaders there. Many of them got caught many times for fighting.
It looked like nothing could change his life. That was until one sad day when his father died. That changed everything.
After his father died, his mother had to work very hard to make enough money to support the family. He told me that he really pitied his mum after his dad died. He felt that he needed to earn some money rather than let his mum work alone. He loved reading cartoon(卡通) books and had been collecting them for years. As his family was short of money he decided that he should sell them. He did this by the side of the road where his mother was selling food.
Soon he realized that his books were very popular. So he decided to set up his own business. He started his business by going around buying cartoon books from other people. He bought them for 25% and then sold them for half price. He could make enough money to help support the family.
He was a “troublemaker” to his teachers but he is a hero to me. If you are judged as a “bad student” or as someone being “stupid”, I suggest you pay no attention to what they say. Just do your best in everything. Don’t give up so easily. Believe in yourself. If you think that you can do it, then you can. Believe me, one day you could be more successful than those persons who looked down upon you!
( )31. What does the author want to tell the readers?
A. How a young man helped his mother.
B. How a young man graduated from college.
C. People can change when they are determined to.
D. People can be successful after they lose a family member.
( )32. Bob felt that he should change his way of life mainly because he _____ .
A. pitied his mother B. got caught for fighting
C. wanted to work with his mother D. had to sell food by the roadside
( )33. Bob decided to start his own business when he ____ .
A. sold all his cartoon books B. found others liked cartoon books
C. could write his own cartoon books D. could buy cartoon books from others

Caffeine(咖啡因) is in many foods and drinks. More than 60 plants, including coffee beans(豆), tea leaves, and cocoa beans (the source of chocolate), have caffeine. In addition, companies add it to some drinks and are now putting caffeine in more products. For example, new kinds of mineral water and juice have caffeine.
As a result, the use of caffeine is very popular. People in the U.S. are spending more time in café and coffee shops. And around the world, 80% of grown-ups eat or drink products with caffeine every day. In one recent year, the use of coffee in the U.S. went up 37%.
When we eat or drink caffeine, it wakes us up and makes our hearts work a little faster. Caffeine also helps some medicine work faster, and helps stop some headaches.
However, caffeine has some bad effects. If we have it at night, we may not be able to sleep. Too much caffeine can make us feel angry or uncomfortable. Many doctors say that caffeine is not good for children or women who are pregnant(怀孕的). If people eat or drink a lot of caffeine, their hearts will start working too fast.
In addition to all these effects, caffeine is habit-forming. Just like cigarettes, after people start drinking caffeine, stopping can be very difficult. Also, after people start drinking caffeine, they want more and more. A little caffeine is not bad for most grown-ups. But people should cut down on caffeine if they are getting too much.
( )34. According to the text, companies add caffeine to _____ .
A. tea leaves B. mineral water C. coffee beans D. cocoa beans
( )35. We know from the text that ____ .
A. caffeine has changed our eating habits
B. young people love to go to coffee shops
C. Americans are now taking more caffeine
D. products with caffeine are always attractive

Fun games and activities play an important role in making picnics enjoyable. Here are some examples.
Picnic Games for all Age Groups: Running and jumping races, playing balloons are some of the very popular picnic games for children. Grown-ups in the ‘picnic mood’ often enjoy taking part in children’s games too. While organizing picnic games that suit all age groups, think of all those going to the picnic and think of their preferences. Picnic games for grown-ups can include playing Frisbee(飞盘), ball games and other sports activities. Prepare playing cards and board games for those who may not be able to take part in active games.
Family Picnic Games: Family picnics are for all the family members to get together and share some priceless moments with each other. When on a family picnic, spend quality time with your family members, chat with them and talk about what you have not spoken about, due to your busy lives. Playing together helps you refresh yourself and your relationship with your near ones.
Company Picnic Games: Company picnics are team-building events, organized with the purpose of nurturing(培养) team spirit in the company employees and developing in them a sense of belongingness towards the organization. You can organize outdoor sports, team games and enjoyable activities for the team members. Make sure that the company picnic turns out to be a refreshing break from work for the team.

The California Highway Patrol had a special program early one morning. In a car park they showed parents how to keep children sage while riding in a car.
The officers and medical experts(专家) showed the parents how to properly place a child safety seat in the car. The seat must be tightly fastened so that it will not move. They told the parents how to place a child in a safety seat and how to use a car’s seat belt to lock down a safety seat.
People brought their children with them along with their safety seats. The experts showed them how to position their seats properly. The experts also looked at the seats that the parents were using to make sure they were not damaged or broken.
Most of the problems that the experts found were resolved. The biggest problem was that the safety seats were too loose(松) or the straps(安全带) were too low for the children. The parents were given new seats if their children’s seats were damaged or unsafe.
It is a law in California that all children must be in a safety seat when they are in a car. A child must be in a safety seat until they are six years old or weigh at least 60 pounds.
Anybody driving with a child in the car without a safety seat will be fined. He will have to pay a ticket, and he will get a mark on his driving record called a point. If a person receives too many points on his driving record, he will perhaps lose his right to drive.
( )42. In the special program parents were taught how _____ .
A. to place a belt on the car seat
B. to use the child safety seat correctly
C. to hide their children in a safe place
D. to fasten the child on the car properly

C. under the age of six D. travelling in a car
