When I learned that my 71-year-old mother was playing Scrabble – a word game – against herself, I knew I had to do something. My husband suggested we give her a computer to play against. I wasn’t sure my mother was ready for it. After all, it had taken 10 years to persuade her to buy an electric cooker. Even so, we packed up our old computer and delivered it to my parents’ home. And so began my mother’s adventure in the world of computers.

It also marked the beginning of an unusual teaching task for me. I’ve taught people of all ages, but I never thought I would be teaching my mother how to do anything. She has been the one teaching me all my life: to cool and sew; to enjoy the good times and put up with the bad. Now it was my turn to give something back.

It wasn’t easy at the beginning. There was so much to explain and to introduce. Slowly but surely, my mother caught on, making notes in a little notebook. After a few months of Scrabble and other games, I decided it was time to introduce her to word processing(文字处理). This proved to be a bigger challenge(挑战) to her, so I gave her some homework I asked her to write me a letter, using different letter types, colors and spaces.

“Are you this demanding with your kindergarten pupils?” she asked.

“No, of course not,” I said. “They already know how to use a computer. ”

My mother isn’t the only one experiencing a fast personal growth period. Thanks to the computer, my father has finally got over his phone allergy(过敏反应). For as long as I can remember, any time I called, my mother would answer. Dad and I have had more phone conversations in the last two months than we’ve had in the past 20 years.

49. What does the author do?

A. She is a cook.                               B. She is a teacher.

C. She is a housewife.                       D. She is a computer engineer.

50. The author decided to give her mother a computer_______.

A. to let her have more chances to write letters

B. to support her in doing her homework

C. to help her through the bad times

D. to make her life more enjoyable

51. The author asked her mother to write her a letter_______.

A. because her mother had stopped using the telephone

B. because she wanted to keep in touch with her mother

C. so that her mother could practice what she had learned

D. so that mother could be free from housework

52. After the computer was brought home, the author’s father _______.

A. lost interest in cooking

B. took more phone calls

C. played more games

D. began to use it

D

When asked to point out of or two things that are most important to themselves, many put friends ahead of homes, jobs, cloth and cars.

A true friendship carries-a-long history of experience that determines who we are and keeps us connected. It is a treasure we should prove it. Unfortunately, the better friends you are, the more probably you’ll have disagreements. And the result can be what you don’t want an end to the relationship.

The good news is that most troubled friendships can be mended. First, don’t let your pride get in your way. Most of us can forgive each other when differences are brought out in the open. Second, apologize when you’re wrong – even if you’ve been wronged. Over the course of friendship, even the best people make mistakes. Sometimes, it may be best if the wronged person takes wrong. Third, see things from your friend’s point of view(观点). And finally, accept that friendships changes as our needs and lifestyles(生活方式) change. Making friends can sometimes seem easy. The hard part is keeping the connections strong during the nature ups and downs that have an effect on all relationships. My suggestion: Consider friendship an honor and a gift, and worth the effort to treasure and nurture(培养).

53. What would be the best title for the text?

A. Easy Ways to Make Friends

B. Ups and Downs in Friendship

C. How to Mend a Troubled Friendship

D. How to Take the Lead in Making Friends

54. The “wronged person” underlined in the text refers to a person _______.

A. who has been mistaken for another

B. who has been blamed unfairly

C. who has treated friends badly

D. who has admitted his mistakes

55. According to the text a friendship can last long only if _______.

A. we have much in common

B. we know our friends mistakes

C. we treat our disagreements wisely

D. we have know one another for long

56. What should we do we follow the author’s second suggestion?

A. Stick to our own, pints of view.

B. Avoid making mistakes.

C. Make an apology first.

D. Change our lifestyles.

“Who made your T-shirt?” A Geowetown University student raised that question. Pietra Rivoli, a professor of business, wanted to fin the answer. A few weeks later, she bought a T-shirt and began to follow its path from Texas cotton form to Chinese factory to charity bin (慈善捐赠箱). The result is an interesting new book, The Travel’s of a T-shirt in the Global Economy(经济).

Following a T-shirt around the world in a way to make her point more interesting, but it also frees Rivoli from the usual arguments over grobal trade. She goes wherever the T-shirt goes, and there are surprises around every corner. In China, Rivoli shows why a clothing factory, even with its poor conditions, means a step toward a better she for the people who work there. In the colorful used-clothing markets of Tanzania, she realizes this, “it is only in this final stage of life that the T-shirt will meet a real market,” where the price of a shirt changes by the hour and is different by its size and even color. Rivoli’s book is full of memerable people and scenes, like the noise, the bad air and the “muddy-sweet smell (泥土香味) of the cotton. ”She says, “Here in the factory, Shanghai smells like Shallowater Texas. ”

Rivoli is at her best when making those sorts of unexpected connections. She even finds one between the free traders and those who are against globalization. The chances opened up by trade are vast, she argues, but free markets need the correcting force of politics to keep them in check. True economic progress needs them both.

57. What do we learn about Professor Rivoli?

A. She used to work on a cotton farm.

B. She wrote a book about world trade.

C. She wants to give up her teaching job.

D. She wears a T-shirt wherever she goes.

58. By saying T-shirt “meet a real market”, Rivoli means in Tanzania_______.

A. cheaper T-shirts are needed.

B. used T-shirts are hard to sell

C. prices of T-shirt rise and fall frequently

D. prices of T-shirt are usually reasonable

59. What does the word “them” underlined in the last paragraph refer to?

A. Free-markets.

B. Price changes.

C. Unexpected connection.

D. chances opened up by trade.

60. What would be the best title for the text?

A. What T-shirt Can Do to Help Cotton Farms

B. How T-shirt Are Made in Shanghai

C. How T-shirt Are Sold in Tanzania

D. What T-shirt Can Teach Us
