Then he found an unexpected email in his inbox. Could he realize his dream late? Sean was now nearly 40, alone and poor. He dreamed of being a police officer for a long time and never made it. Was it possibly 1 this time? When Sean was only a 5-year-old boy, his father's friend Paul once 2 the little boy home in his police car. Sean was interested in the car, the lights and the uniform（制服） . He decided to be a hero like Paul. However, a high school English teacher 3 his dream. She argued that he had a true gift for writing and should not waste it being a police officer. Sean followed his teacher's advice and finally he became a 4 for a newspaper and married. During the years, he changed several jobs but nothing made him really 5 . His heart really wasn't in the job or marriage. Actually, he had never really given up his childhood 6 to become a policeman. His wife could not bear this and left him when Sean was 39 years old. Sean was 7 to move back to St. Ignace, where his dad lived. “I feel like a failure,“ Sean says. He was sad and lost 25 pounds in a few months. When his father encouraged him to search for a new job, the opportunity came. Phoenix was in great need of police officers and one of Sean's old friends emailed him, “Do you still want to be a police officer?“ “Phoenix was a world away - 2100 miles from St. Ignace,“ says Sean. “But here, at least, was one more 8 I felt reborn.“ In order to pass the test to enter the police academy （学院） , Sean 9 began training, setting a daily running rule of a mile and a half. Three weeks later when he arrived in Phoenix, Sean was a man physically and emotionally changed. Finally, Sean passed the written exam and completed the physical test. On Nov. 16, 2015, Sean finished his education in the police academy. The following year, Sean got a prize because of his excellent job. “It took me 35 years. But a promise is a promise.

In their eyes, keeping pets has many advantages. It can teach people a sense of responsibility. What's more, it can drive away the loneliness. It can also reduce people's stress. But I'd like to voice different opinions. A recent survey in the United States showed that the common family spent more money on its pets than on its children. Although to some degree unbelievable, it should not surprise anyone who has seen the doggy parlors（客厅） where loved pets rest. Are Americans different from others in treating their little friends in this way? No, the English, too, pay more attention to their pets. This can clearly be seen when we look at pet foods, which often provide more vitamins（维 生素） than human food. They certainly cost much. Last year the British public spent two hundred million pounds on pet food alone, to say nothing of medical bills or animal furniture（家具） . It is difficult to feel happy about this when considering what that money could do for the hungry and the poor, so it is not unusual for me to get hot under collar when I read an old man left all his money to his dog instead of his children. There are some reasons why I find pet-raising worrying. They lead to physical problems. An example of this is New York where it is difficult to deal with the mess that dogs leave on the streets. Many people find this funny, but in a number of large cities it is a big problem. Animals can cause illness, too. Another problem is the carelessness of pet owners. Most little children want a dog or a cat, and they continually push their mothers and fathers until they get one. It is only when the “sweet little thing“ has been brought home that the parents realize how much time and money must be spent on “Rover“ or “Bonzo“. Then they just leave the pets they keep. As a result, they are allowed to run free. English farmers lose hundreds of sheep a year, killed by someone s pet and you must have read of children being hurt by some pets of their own. So please have a second thought before you keep a pet. (1)According to the passage, keeping pets have many advantages except . A.reducing the stressB.driving away the loneliness C.being good for the environmentD.teaching the sense of responsibility (2)The doggy parlors are mentioned in the 3rd paragraph to show . A.how much money pet owners spend on pets B.how much pets depend on their owners C.why children love their pets so much D.where Americans keep their pets (3)In the 4th paragraph “ get hot under the collar“ probably means . A.staying cool B.feeling very angry C.becoming excited D.getting quite satisfied (4)According to the passage which of the following is true? A.Pets can do harm to people's health. B.The writer thinks it is good to keep pets. C.Pet owners can take good care of their pets all the time. D.Americans spend more money on their children than on pets. D How to Improve Your Memory Man still has a lot to learn about the most powerful and complex（复杂的） part of his body - the brain. It may be surprising to learn that it isn't age that makes you lose your memory. The reason could be that you have a “lazy“ memory, not an old one. Like your body, your memory improves with exercise. Once given plenty of exercise, the brain keeps its power. Before discussing how to improve the memory, lets look at how the brain works. There are two sides to the brain, the left and the right. The right side deals with senses (what we see, hear, feel and smell) . It's the creative and imaginative side. The left side is related to logical（逻辑的） thinking, which analyzes （分 析） information and put it in order. Some recent research suggests that we remember everything that happens to us. The problem most of us have is recalling （回忆） events. Most forgetting takes place immediately after learning. An hour after learning something new, more than 50% has been forgotten. After a month, 80% has been forgotten, and so on. This research is very important. It shows if you review new material you have learnt, you remember much more. So it's of the greatest importance to review newly learned material often, and have breaks often. You best remember what you learn at the beginning of a learning period and at the point where we stop. After the break, review what was learned before the break and then continue learning the new material. These breaks should happen every 20 or 45 minutes. Other experiments have shown the brain needs time to take in what has been learned. The time necessary for this is 5 to 10 minutes. After the break, the memory will have taken in what it has just learned, and more will be remembered. During this period it is important to exercise the right side of the brain, because the left side is used during the learning period. Therefore you should relax. Listening to music, breathing in fresh air, and looking at a picture are all ways of using the other side of the brain. So when you are studying alone, make a plan which shows when to have breaks and to review newly learned material immediately before you begin studying again. If you do in this way, your memory will improve. (1)To fight forgetting better, we're advised to . A.break down materials into small prices B.use two sides of the brain together C.make proper use of our senses D.go over what was learned often (2)During the learning process the brain needs breaks to . A.use the right side of the brain B.review newly learnt materials C.take in what has been learnt D.relax the left side of the brain (3)What can we learn from the passage? A.Old age makes people lose their memory and forget the past. B.People can remember 20% an hour after learning something new. C.Listening to music is the best way to use the left side of the brain. D.Memory works best at the beginning and the end of a learning period. 四、信息还原 People are always afraid of making mistakes. But sometimes it's not bad to make mistakes, and here is why. At first, mistakes are a clear sign that you are trying new things. So go bravely and make mistakes. In fact when you are trying new things, you are growing. 1 , how can you improve? How can you create? The simple answer is, “You can't.“ Look around you, everything you see is the result of someone trying new things. 2 : When you are making mistakes, you are learning. Consider this: Edison failed 10,000 times before he invented the light bulb （ 灯 泡） .When he was asked how he felt to fail that many times, he said that he hadn't failed 10,000 times, but had learned 10,000 things that didn't work. Finally, when you make a mistake, you are much closer to success. Why? 3 , and you have done what you should do. But it doesn't mean that you can make mistakes without thinking. Instead, it's necessary for you to think them over when you try new things. 4 . We shouldn't spend all our time and money on the only one way, but use them correctly. 5 . There is an old saying, “If you are not making mistakes, you are not trying hard enough.“ It's always good to try new things. A.If you never try new things B.After all, our time and money are limited C.Because you have said what you should say D.The second good thing about mistakes is this E.In this way, you can avoid some unnecessary mistakes 五、阅读与表达 Keep Air Clean in Your Home Have you ever got a bad cough that won't go away? do you have trouble breathing? Do your eyes hurt when your parents are cooking? The air in your home could cause these problems. Everyone knows that there is air pollution in the street, but it is surprising to discover that you are also is danger of air pollution in your own home. Many people, especially those who live in villages in the countryside, burn coal or wood in the open air. This can be really dangerous, because there are harmful chemicals in the smoke and they can seriously pollute the air in your home. Fuels（燃料） that people use for cooking can also be harmful. Again, the problem is that fresh air doesn't get into the area where the cooking place. When you breathe in bad air in your home, it can harm your lungs（肺部） and other parts of your body. There are things you can do to reduce the amount（数量） of bad air in your home. Of course, you have to keep warm and you can't stop cooking, but you can reduce the amount of bad air you breathe in. First of all, avoid smoky areas as much as you can. Although it's important for adults to stay away from smoke, it's especially important for children. Secondly, find some ways to fix the problem if an open fire or cooking causes smoke in your home. To remove（除去） the smoke, you can turn on the smoke lampblack machine （油烟机） and open the window more often, even in winter. You'll be glad you did it ! (1)Is there air pollution in your own home? (2)Why is it dangerous to burn coal or wood in the open air? (3)What can it harm when you breathe in bad air? (4) What can you do to remove the smoke?
