A

By the time I reached junior high，I was sure I wanted to be a nurse. If you didn’t study Latin，you couldn’t be a nurse，so I enrolled. Many Latin words were familiar to me. The hard part turned out to be the usage and creating sentences with the words that seemed so easy to pronounce. Several weeks into the course my teacher came to me，saying，“I think you should withdraw from this course. It seems to be too hard for you. ”

That was the day I learned I wasn’t smart enough to become a nurse. With shame, I handed in my Latin textbook.

After high school，the years raced by. I married and had children. Then one day my husband John came home. “Carol, Max died this afternoon.” I looked at my husband with disbelief.

John was touched by this tragedy. Finally one evening he said，“Carol，Jackie has never worked and now she’s alone with four children. I've been thinking — if anything happens to me. I want you to be able to take care of yourself and the children. Why don’t you think about what you’d like to do and get the training you’ll need to do it?”

I signed up for the entrance exam for nursing programs. One day I received a letter from the schoo1. I wanted so badly to open it，but with my lack of confidence，I laid it on the kitchen counter saying, “I'm not in the mood for a rejection letter today.”

Finally I forced myself to open it. “Dear Carol，”I read. ”We are pleased to inform you that you successfully passed the entrance exam.”

An insensitive teacher once stole my dream. If you have a dream, exhaust every effort to reach it. I’ve worked thirty years now as a nurse and I’ve never been more certain that this is what I was meant to be.

21. Why did John advise Carol to find a job?

A. To support the family B. To provide more money for her kids

C. To live a more colorful life D. To be able to live independently

22. From the text, we know what the teacher said____________.

A. destroyed Carol’s dream to be a nurse. B. helped Carol find her true interest

C. saved Carol from wasting her time D. encouraged Carol to be careful in learning

23. After receiving the letter from the schoo1, Caro1____________.

A. was uncertain about the result B. had no mood to read it then

C. didn’t take it seriously at all D. couldn’t wait to open it

24. What may be the best title for the text？

A. A dream too high to achieve B. Too stupid to be a nurse?

C. Never too late to 1earn D. A chance too important to miss

B

?China is going green.?In order to reduce air pollution and oil shortages, automobile manufacturers have announced their plans to develop hybrid vehicles (混合燃料汽车) for the Chinese market. Toyota's hybrid car Prius will be ready to drive in China this week. Let's have a look at the n
ew car.

Any vehicle is a hybrid when it combines two or more sources of power. Hybrid cars run off a rechargeable battery and gasoline. Hybrid cars have special engines, which are smaller than traditional?gasoline engines. They run at 99 percent of their power when the car is cruising (匀速行驶). A specially?designed battery motor provides extra power for running up hills or when extra acceleration is needed.

???? Step into a Prius, and turn on the engine. The first thing you notice is how much quieter it is than a?traditional car. At this
point, the car's gasoline engine is dormant (休眠). The electric motor will provide?power until the car reaches about 24 km/h. If you stay at a low speed, you are

effectively driving an electric car, with no gasoline being used, and no waste gas gives off.

The onboard(车载的) computer makes the decision about when to use a gas engine, when to go?electric, and when to use a combination of the two. If you go over 24 km/h, when you step on the gas pedal (油门), you are actually telling the computer how fast you want to go.

The electronic motor recharges automatically using a set of batteries. When driving at high speed, the gasoline engine not only powers the car, but also charges the batteries. Any time you use the brake, the electric motor in the wheels will work like a generator and produce electricity to recharge the batteries.?As a consequence, the car's batteries will last for around 200,000 miles.25. The author writes this passage mainly to________.A. teach people how to drive a hybrid car?B. show how to save their gasoline when driving a car?C. introduce a new kind of "green" car?D. announce plans to develop hybrid vehicles for China26. The first sentence probably refers to ________.A. there will be more and more green land in ChinaB. China has started producing environmentally friendly carsC. China's new cars are combinations of different green modelsD. China is still young and lacking experience?27. What is the most important feature of hybrid cars?A. They have smaller engines than traditional gasoline ones.B. They are much quieter than traditional cars.C. They only use 99 percent of their power to run up hills.D. They are powered by both a rechargeable battery and gasoline.

28. What can we conclude from the story?A. The gasoline engine charges the batteries as well as powers the car.

B. Using the brake suggests that the gasoline engine should work.C. The batteries will last for 200, 000 miles without being recharged.D. The batteries can be recharged at any time you want.

? C??When you go to St. Petersburg, the number of attractions can seem large. If you are short of time, or just want to make sure to hit the highlights, these are the top must-see sights in St．Petersburg．●The Hermitage Museum?The Hermitage Museum is one of the most important sights to see for any visitor to St．Petersburg．There are lots of different paintings by the old masters in the Hermitage．Prepare to come face-to-face with classic Western artists．●Kizhi Island?Kizhi Island is an ope
n-air museum of wooden architecture from the Karelia Region of Russia．These impressive structures are made entirely without nails - the wood fits together with joints and grooves（沟槽）．●Peterhof?Peterhof is as beautiful as it is fun．You’ll be cha
rged for admission, but go to Petethof when the fountains are working—during the day in the summer．They are shut off in winter evenings．●The Church of Our Savior on the Spilt Blood?Love it or hate it, the Church of Our Savior on the Spilt Blood in St．Petersburg is an enthralling must-see sight．The beautiful look may make your eyes brighten, and the painting inside the church will make you say “Wow!”●The Bronze Horseman Statue?The so-called Bronze Horseman is a part of Russian culture and a symbol of St．Petersburg．Made famous by Alexander Pushkin, this statue of Peter the Great sitting on his horse can truly show Peter the
Great’s influence on the Russian idea of greatness．29．If you are interested in paintings, you’d better go to???????_____? ．?A．Peterhof and Kizhi Island?B．the Hernatage Museum and Peterhof?C．the Hermitage Museum and the Church of O
