Hobbs was an orphan(孤儿). He worked in a factory and every day he got a little money. Hard work made him thin and weak. He wanted to borrow a lot of money to learn to paint pictures, but he did not think he could pay off the debts. One day a lawyer said to him, “One thousand dollars, and here is the money.” As Hobbs took the package of notes, he was very dumbfounded. He didn’t know where the money came from and how to spend it. He said to himself, “I could go to find a hotel and live like a rich man for a few days; or I give up my work in the factory and do what I’d like to do: painting pictures. I could do that for a few weeks, but what would I do after that? I should have lost my place in the factory and have no money to live on. If it were a little less money, I would buy a new coat, or a radio, or give a dinner to my friends. If it were more, I could give up the work and pay for painting pictures. But it’s too much for one and too little for the other.” “Here is the reading of your uncle’s will（遗嘱）,” said the lawyer, “telling what is to be done with this money after his death. I must ask you to remember one point. Your uncle has said you must bring me a paper showing exactly what you did with his money, as soon as you have spent it.” “Yes, I see. I’ll do that,” said the young man.

23. Hobbs was asked to _______. A. write down what he did with the money after spending it

B. write down what was to be done with the money

C. tell the lawyer what pictures he wanted to buy

D. spend all the money given by his uncle

B

For most people, the word “fashion” means “clothes”. But people ask the question, “What clothes are fashion?” And they use the adjective “fashionable” in the same way: “she was wearing a fashionable coat.” “His shirt was really a fashionable color.”

But of course there are fashions in many things, not only in clothes. There are fashions in holidays, in restaurants, in films and books. There are even fashions in school subjects, jobs and in languages.

Fashions change as time goes. If you look at pictures of people or things from the past, you will feel that fashions have always changed. An English house of 1950 was different from one of 1508. A fashionable man in 1920 looked very different from his grandson in 2000.

Today fashions change very quickly. Some of this is natural. We hear about things much more quickly than in the past. Newspapers, radios, telephones and televisions send information from one country to another in a few hours.

New fashions mean that people will buy new things, so you see there is money in fashion.

24. From this passage we know that “fashion” means _______.

A. clothes B. most of the popular things

C. many things D. everything

25. Which of the following things is fashionable today?

A. Surfing on different cell-phones.

B. Radios send information from one country to another.

C. People read newspapers every day.

D. Playing games at school.

26. “There is money in fashion” in the last sentence means _______.

A. clothes are expensive

B. fashions can help people make big money

C. fashionable things are all expensive

D. if you are in fashion, you will have money

27. Which one is Not Right in the following statements?

A. As time goes, fashions can be different from what they are now.

B. In the modern world, fashions change very quickly.

C. The word “fashions” doesn’t only mean “clothes”.

D. Fashions are in many things, but there aren’t fashions in school subjects.

In our home it was natural to fear our father. Even our mother was afraid of him. As children, my sister and I thought every family was like that --- that every family had an unpredictable dad who was impossible to please and a praying mom who was there to protect the children.

Then came the day we found som
