Weekday mornings are very busy for the U. S. middle school students. When your school doesn’t have a bus, and you live too far away to walk, you need a carpool. A carpool is a group of people sharing the responsibility (责任) of driving to school in the morning. There are usually four or five kids in a carpool and their parents take turns to drive the kids in their cars.
Someone’s car smells like wet dogs. Some kids get to eat desserts for breakfast and some parents shout so much that all you try to do is to stay quiet and go unnoticed. When your mum or dad drives the carpool, your classmates get a close-up look at how strange your parents can be. It might be your first sociological (社会学的) study and your first time to work with others.
Teamwork is really important in the carpool because nobody wants to make anyone else late. It’s a great lesson in responsibility. Imagine sitting in the car outside of a classmate’s house, watching the clock and counting the seconds. Then you start to understand how your carpool friends might feel when you are still inside the house at 7:48. You really begin to learn all your real life lessons just moments before the start of school—in the carpool.
27. What is a carpool?
A. Parents drive kids to school on their way to work. B. Parents take turns to drive their kids to school.
C. Kids go to school in their parents’ cars. D. Kids drive their own cars to school.
28. What can students learn from a carpool?
A. How to drive a car. B. How to get along with others.
C. What to do with homework. D. Real teamwork.
29. Teamwork is really important in the carpool because ________.
A. not everyone has a car B. students have to do their homework in the car
C. nobody wants to make anyone else late D. students share their breakfast with others
30. Which of the following is TRUE?
A. Kids can learn real life lessons in a carpool.
B. If kids live far away from school, they are always late for school.
C. The U. S. children enjoy carpooling better than taking a school bus.
D. Kids often have enough time to study in a carpool.

Ben is a middle school student. He lives with his parents in a small town. One Sunday morning, Ben got up early and set out to climb a mountain not far away from his house. Although his parents felt a little worried about him since it was his first time going climbing alone, they decided to let him try. Finally as the sun was going down and it was getting dark, little Ben came back home, with tears in his eyes.
“What’s the matter, Ben? How’s your trip?” his mother asked. “I failed. Although the mountain is very high and the way is full of stones, I still went ahead. But I was tired and it was so late that I had to come back,” Ben cried. “It doesn’t matter. You are only 14 years old after all. You will have another chance,” his mother said. “But standing at the top of the mountain is my dream!” Ben said. His father came over and asked, “Did you feel the beauty of nature?” "Yes. The blue sky, the white clouds, the green trees and the colorful flowers made a nice picture,” Ben answered. “That’s enough!” his father smiled and said. “Please remember, my son, most of the time, achieving what you expect is not the most important thing. Although you didn’t reach the top of the mountain, you got a lot on the way.”
It is true that not every work will end with success, and not every dream will come true. The most beautiful scenery (风景) is on the way.

33. What’s the main reason why Ben didn’t reach the top of the mountain?
A. The mountain is very high. B. The way is full of stones.
C. Ben was tired and it was so late. D. Ben was only 14 years old.
34. Which word can replace (代替) the underlined words “set out”?
A. Returned. B. Started. C. Continued. D. Completed.
35. What does the writer want to tell us?
A. The goal is not important. B. Everyone should climb the mountain.
C. The mountain is very beautiful. D. The process is more important than the result.
【答案】31. B 32. B 33. C 34. B 35. D

Weekday mornings are very busy for the U. S. middle school students. When your school doesn’t have a bus, and you live too far away to walk, you need a carpool. A carpool is a group of people sharing the responsibility (责任) of driving to school in the morning. There are usually four or five kids in a carpool and their parents take turns to drive the kids in their cars.
Someone’s car smells like wet dogs. Some kids get to eat desserts for breakfast and some parents shout so much that all you try to do is to stay quiet and go unnoticed. When your mum or dad drives the carpool, your classmates get a close-up look at how strange your parents can be. It might be your first sociological (社会学的) study and your first time to work with others.
Teamwork is really important in the carpool because nobody wants to make anyone else late. It’s a great lesson in responsibility. Imagine sitting in the car outside of a classmate’s house, watching the clock and counting the seconds. Then you start to understand how your carpool friends might feel when you are still inside the house at 7:48. You really begin to learn all your real life lessons just moments before the start of school—in the carpool.
27. What is a carpool?
A. Parents drive kids to school on their way to work. B. Parents take turns to drive their kids to school.
C. Kids go to school in their parents’ cars. D. Kids drive their own cars to school.
28. What can students learn from a carpool?
A. How to drive a car. B. How to get along with others.
C. What to do with homework. D. Real teamwork.
29. Teamwork is really important in the carpool because ________.
A. not everyone has a car B. students have to do their homework in the car
C. nobody wants to make anyone else late D. students share their breakfast with others
30. Which of the following is TRUE?
A. Kids can learn real life lessons in a carpool.
B. If kids live far away from school, they are always late for school.
C. The U. S. children enjoy carpooling better than taking a school bus.
D. Kids often have enough time to study in a carpool.

Ben is a middle school student. He lives with his parents in a small town. One Sunday morning, Ben got up early and set out to climb a mountain not far away from his house. Although his parents felt a little worried about him since it was his first time going climbing alone, they decided to let him try. Finally as the sun was going down and it was getting dark, little Ben came back home, with tears in his eyes.
“What’s the matter, Ben? How’s your trip?” his mother asked. “I failed. Although the mountain is very high and the way is full of stones, I still went ahead. But I was tired and it was so late that I had to come back,” Ben cried. “It doesn’t matter. You are only 14 years old after all. You will have another chance,” his mother said. “But standing at the top of the mountain is my dream!” Ben said. His father came over and asked, “Did you feel the beauty of nature?” "Yes. The blue sky, the white clouds, the green trees and the colorful flowers made a nice picture,” Ben answered. “That’s enough!” his father smiled and said. “Please remember, my son, most of the time, achieving what you expect is not the most important thing. Although you didn’t reach the top of the mountain, you got a lot on the way.”
It is true that not every work will end with success, and not every dream will come true. The most beautiful scenery (风景) is on the way.

A. Because he got to the top of the mountain.
B. Because he failed to reach the top of the mountain.
C. Because he was afraid when the sun went down.
D. Because he was too tired after a whole day’s climbing.
32. How did Ben’s parents want him to feel?
A. Friendly. B. Happy. C. Clever. D. Healthy.
33. What’s the main reason why Ben didn’t reach the top of the mountain?
A. The mountain is very high. B. The way is full of stones.
C. Ben was tired and it was so late. D. Ben was only 14 years old.
34. Which word can replace (代替) the underlined words “set out”?
A. Returned. B. Started. C. Continued. D. Completed.
35. What does the writer want to tell us?
A. The goal is not important. B. Everyone should climb the mountain.
