I began working in journalism (新闻业) when I was eight. It was my mother’s idea. She wanted me to “make something” of myself, and decided I had better start young if I was to have any chance of keeping up with the competition (竞争).
With my load of magazines I headed toward Belleville Avenue. The crowds were there. There were two gas stations on the corner of Belleville and Union. For several hours I made myself easily seen, making sure everyone could see me and the heavy black letters on the bag that said THE SATURDAY EVENING POST. When it was supper time, I walked back home.
“How many did you sell, my boy?” my mother asked.
“None.” www.ks5u.com
“Where did you go?”
“The corner of Belleville and Union Avenues.”
“What did you do?”
“Stood on the corner waiting for somebody to buy a Saturday Evening Post.”
“You just stood there?”
“Didn’t sell a single one.”
“My God, Russell!”
Uncle Allen put in, “Well, I’ve decided to take the Post.” I handed him a copy and he paid me a nickel(五分镍币). It was the first nickel I earned.
Afterwards my mother taught me how to be a salesman. I would have to ring doorbells, address adults with self-confidence, and persuade them by saying that no one, no matter how poor, could afford to be without the Saturday Evening Post in the home.
One day, I told my mother I’d changed my mind. I didn’t want to make a success in the magazine business. www.ks5u.com
“If you think you can change your mind like this,” she replied, “you’ll become a good-for-nothing.” She insisted that, as soon as school was over, I should start ringing doorbells, selling magazines. Whenever I said no, she would scold me.
My mother and I had fought this battle almost as long as I could remember. My mother, dissatisfied with my father’s plain workman’s life, determined that I would not grow up like him and his people. But never did she expect that, forty years later, such a successful reporter as me would go back to her husband’s people for true life and love.
1．Why did the boy start his job young?
A．He wanted to be famous in the future. B．The job was quite easy for him.

If Confucius were still alive today and could celebrate his September 28 birthday with a big cake，there would be a lot of candles．He’d need a fan or a strong wind to help him put them out．
While many people in China will remember Confucius on his special day，few people in the United States will give him a passing thought．It’s nothing personal．Most Americans don’t even remember the birthdays of their own national heroes．
But this doesn’t mean that Americans don’t care about Confucius．In many ways he has become a bridge that foreigners must cross if they want to reach a deeper understanding of China．
In the past two decades，the Chinese study programs have gained huge popularity in Western universities．More recently, the Chinese government has set up Confucius Institutes in more than 80 countries．These schools teach both Chinese language and culture．The main courses of Chinese culture usually included Chinese art，history and philosophy．Some social scientists suggest that Westerners should take advantage of the old Chinese wisdom to make up for the drawbacks of Westerners philosophy．Students in the United States，at the same time，are racing to learn Chinese．So they will be ready for life in a world where China is an equal power with the United States．Businessmen who hope to make money in China are reading books about Confucius to understand their Chinese customers．www.ks5u.com
So the old thinker’s ideas are still alive and well．
Today China attracts the West more than ever, and it will need more teachers to introduce Confucius and Chinese culture to the West．
As for the old thinker，he will not soon be forgotten by people in the West，even if his birthday is．
1. The first paragraph is mainly intended to_________．
A. provide some key facts about Confucius
B. prove the popularity of modern birthday celebrations
C. show great respect for the old thinker
D. attract the readers’ interest in the subject
2．The reason why few Americans remember Confucius on his birthday is probably that______．
A. they don’t care about Confucius at all．
B. they consider their own national heroes more important．
C. he has become a bridge between foreigners and China.
D. they don’t pay much attention to the birthdays of famous people．
3. We can learn from Paragraph 4 that American students________．
A. were not interested in Chinese studies before
B. take an active part in Chinese competitions
C. have a great interest in studying Chinese
D. hope to make money in China
4. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Old Thinker with a Big Future B. Huge Fans of the Chinese Language
C. Chinese Culture for Westerners D. Forgotten Wisdom in America

Dear Mom, Clear My Calendar
September is around the corner, and some of us are already complaining about summer’s end. But parents have a special reason to do so. The end of summer means the start of school. And these days, planning a young child’s schedule is a big challenge. The challenge is no longer finding activities to fill a child’s day; it is saying no to the hundreds of options available. Our mailbox is filled with brochures urging us to sign our kids up for classes from cooking to martial arts(武术).
Educators are themselves discouraged by the number of special classes that many children attend. In the name of “enrichment,” three-year-olds not only go to preschool in the morning but study French or gymnastics after lunch. One teacher tells of a four-year-old asking for help in the toilet before hurrying off to tennis. Another teacher says that children sometimes hold on to her at pickup time. What happened to unstructured time?
A generous explanation is that we enjoy giving children opportunities we never had. The truth however is that many parents have doubts about how much time they spend away from their families. And one way to reduce this guilt is to believe that time spent in these classes is somehow more beneficial to children than the time we know we should be giving them ourselves.
David Elkind, an expert on children, suggests that the 1960s gave birth to the belief that earlier is better. Parents hope that early music lessons, for example will build a child’s confidence. The truth, however, is that any time children are asked to do too much, too soon, they are at greater risk for feelings of failure.
A child’s time does not have to be planned to be meaningful. Remember the lazy days of summer? Some children sleep late and play with the kids across the street until it’s time to come home for dinner. However, with the majority of mothers working, fewer children enjoy that idle (空闲的) time now.
Come September, children across the country will finish a full day of kindergarten, only to attend an after-school program until 6 P.M., when a working mom or dad comes to take them home. That’s too much for a five-year old. Finances, of course, do limit some parents. But let’s be honest with ourselves – our own busy schedules, whatever they involve, are no excuse for burdening a young child’s.
1. The author holds that it’s a challenge to plan a schedule for a child mainly because _____.www.ks5u.com
A. parents are stuck in numerous choices
B. activities suitable for kids are limited
C. a child’s schedule is too complex.
D. children always say no to parents’ advice
2. What the two teachers say in Paragraph 2 implies that _____.
A. children love to stay at school
B. they are popular with children
C. children dislike after-school classes
D. after-school classes are of poor quality
3. According to the author, what is the real reason for parents to send their children to after-school classes?
A. Parents want to make up for their own regrets.
B. After-school classes give parents an excuse for being absent.
C. Parents have doubt about their own ability to guide children.
D. After-school classes develop children’s potential.
4. Which of the following will the author probably agree with?
A. For children’s benefits, the earlier the better.
B. Children’s spare time should be carefully designed.
C. Idle time for children is becoming a thing of the past.
D. Parents should be forgiven if they have a good reason.,

Have you fallen into a pattern of sleeping poorly? 36 Getting a good night sleep is very important to your physical and emotional (情感的) health. Here are a number of simple actions and choices you can make right now to help you sleep better TONIGHT.
1. Avoid caffeine, nicotine, and alcohol. If you want coffee in the afternoon or evening, drink less. An alcoholic drink, especially more than one, will not help you sleep better.

Dear fellow students,
Our school is aiming at building a harmonious school. I think it is everyone’s duty to work hard to achieve this goal. What should we do now?
First of all, we should be friendly to our classmates and try our best to help each other . Secondly, we should respect and trust our teachers and develop a pleasant relationship with them. At the same time, we should communicate with our parents regularly so that they can know what is happening in our school and what is in our mind. Thirdly, I think , we should protect our environment and keep our school yard clean. We should take care of the equipment in the classroom and the plants in the school yard. Don’t spit and throw rubbish everywhere.
Let’s take action from now on. Let’ s work together to live in harmony.
Thank you.
