Waiting for the bus every morning and going to school has never been better for Ryder Killam, a
5-year-old boy in a wheelchair from Westerly, Rhode Island who was born with disability. He no
longer has to wait for the school bus in the open air thanks to Westerly High School students.
The goal of the boy’s father, Tim Killam, was to keep his little kid protected from the bad weather
while waiting for the bus every morning, and getting some kind of shelter (避雨处) was actually his
idea. He asked for an unused bus shelter on Facebook. After not being able to find a suitable one, he
decided to contact the high school which had already finished several building projects.
The students from Westerly High School construction (建造 ) class, among whom is one of
Ryder’s brothers, quickly put their hands to work. The bus stop was designed by pupil Mason Heald,
who was in regular contact with the Killams for feedback.
The construction class, led by Dan McKenna, teaches its members building skills and is part of
the high school’s Career and Technical Education programme.
“This was a design to final products and delivery. It’s the best we could have asked for. It’s really
what these programmes should be about,” said Michael Hobin, Westerly High School’s principal.
More people from the local community chipped in to help make the project happen. One of
McKenna’s former students transported the shelter from the high school to the Killams’ address with
his truck. And another neighbour helped to properly position the shelter by the bus stop.
Not only did Ryder’s daily life improve, but the students also learnt an unforgettable life lesson.
They saw that with their skills and knowledge they can make a real difference in someone else’s life.
24. Why did Tim Killam turn to a high school for help?
A. Few people helped him. B. The school was close to him.
C. His son put forward the suggestion. D. He couldn’t find a right shelter.
25. What does the underlined phrase “chipped in” in paragraph 6 mean?
A. joined in B. focused on
C. picked up D. referred to
26. What’s the author’s attitude to what people did in building the shelter?
A. Amazed. B. Appreciative.
C. Unclear. D. Doubtful.
27. What’s the best title for the text?
A. A dream come true B. A amazing bus stop
C. A lucky disabled child D. Awarm and comfortable shelter

C
Animals are natural resources that people have wasted all through our history. Animals have been
killed for their fur and feathers, for food, for sport. Thousands of kinds of animals have disappeared
from the world forever. Hundreds more are on the danger list today. About 170 kinds in the United
States alone are considered in danger.
Why should people care? Because we need animals. And because once they are gone, there will
never be any more. Animals are more than just beautiful and interesting. They are more than just a
source of food. Every animal has its place in the balance of nature. Destroying one kind of animal can
create many problems. For example, when farmers killed large numbers of hawks, the farmers’ stores
of corn and grain were destroyed by rats and mice. Why? Because hawks eat rats and mice. With no
hawks to keep down their numbers, the rats and mice increased quickly.
Luckily, some people are working to help save the animals. Some groups raise money to let
people know about the problem. And they try to get the governments to pass laws protecting animals
in danger. Quite a few countries have passed laws. These laws forbid the killing of any animals or
plants on the danger list. Slowly, the number of some animals in danger is growing.
28. What has happened to the animals on the earth?
A. Only a few animals have disappeared.
B. Many kinds of animals have died out.
C. About 170 kinds of animals have disappeared forever.
D. All kinds of animals are in danger.
29. Animals are important to us mainly because ________.
A. they give us a source of food B. they are beautiful and lovely
C. they keep the balance of nature D. they give us a lot of pleasure
30. Which of the following is NOT true?
A. People care much about animals because they need them.
B. Once a certain kind of animals is gone forever, there will never be any more.
C. Killing all rats and mice may cause some problems.
D. People must not kill any animals.
31. What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. Every person will know the importance of protecting wild animals.
B. Animals in danger will not be killed any more.
C. The number of some animals in danger will increase.
D. Animals in danger will be kept away from people.

Thanks to this new hands-free suitcase, carrying around heavy luggage may soon become a thing
of the past. Designed by an Israeli company NUA Robotics, this “smart” suitcase will follow you
everywhere you go.
The carry-on suitcase, currently a prototype (雏形), connects to a smart phone app via Bluetooth.
It has a built-in camera sensor that can “see” you and follow you around on flat surfaces like airport
floors. It comes with an anti-theft alarm to prevent someone carrying it away when you’re not looking
and it has a backup battery that you can use to charge all your devices.
“It can follow and carry things for people around while communicating with their smart phone,
and avoiding obstacles, ” explained Alex Libman, founder of NUA Robotics. “We ’ re combining
sensor network, computer vision, and robotics. So if you download our app, press the follow-me
button, the luggage recognizes the specific user and knows to follow and communicate.”
NUA is still testing the device and trying to improve features like speed and customization (定制),
but they hope to make the suitcase available to customers in a year’s time. If it proves successful, they
want to use the Bluetooth pairing technology to automate lots of other devices, like shopping carts at
the supermarket. These devices are especially meant to be useful to the physically disabled and elderly.
“Any object can be smart and robotic,” Libman said, “We want to bring robots into everyday life.”
The Israeli tech company made it clear that the finished product will look just like a regular
suitcase. They’ re planning to partner with a carry-on luggage maker, since the device that makes it
“smart” weighs just 2.5 pounds and can be fitted on old-fashion luggage.
With NUA’s smart suitcase, carrying round heavy luggage isn’t a burden. But how their invention
will handle tough obstacles like stairs? It will be interesting to wait.
32. Why can this carry-on suitcase follow you?
A. Because there is a camera sensor inside. B. Because there exists an anti-theft alarm.
C. Because it can recognize your smell. D. Because a battery plays a key part.
33. According to the passage, the “smart” suitcase _______.
A. can go everywhere B. can make our hands free during traveling
C. is on sale now D. was designed by Alex Libman
34. What can we learn about NUA?
A. It is an Israeli tech company producing mobile phones.
B. It has improved the features of the device.
C. It will make the suitcase available to customers in a month.
D. It wants to bring more smart and robotic devices into everyday life.
35. Where does the article probably come from?
A. A text-book. B. A biography. C. Awebsite. D. A poster.

The Winner’s Guide to Success
Do you know what makes people successful? To find out the answers, an American reporter
recently visited some of the most successful people around the world. 36
Be responsible for yourself.
Sometimes you may want to blame others for your failure to get ahead. In fact, when you say
someone or something apart from yourself is stopping you from making success, you’re giving away
your own power. 37
Write a plan.
It is very difficult to try to get what you want without a good plan. It is just like trying to drive
through strange roads to a city far away. 38 Without this “map”, you may waste your time,
money and also your energy; while with the “map”, you’ll enjoy the “trip” and get what you want in
the shortest possible time.
39
Nothing great is easy to get. So you must be ready to work hard — even harder than you have
ever done. If you are not willing to pay the price, you won’t get anything valuable.
Never give up.
40 When you are doing something, you must tell yourself again and again: Giving up
is worse than failure because failure can be the mother of success, but giving up means the death of
hope.
A. Be willing to pay the price.
B. A good plan is like a map to you.
C. Here are some keys to success that they give.
D. You’re saying, “You have more control over my life than I do.”
E. Someone else’s opinion of you doesn’t have to become your reality.
F. It seems to us that everyone knows this, but it is easier said than done.
G. Some people achieve success much later in life because they didn’t work hard earlier.

Boys like to be considered to be brave, but what kind of things can be considered to be brave? A
boy with the name Henry gave us a good example.
Ronny and Henry were two friends in the same class. They always played together and went
home together. One day as Ronny and Henry were going home after school, they saw some people
fighting in the street comer. Ronny said excitedly, “Some people are fighting! Let’s go and have a
look!” But Henry refused, “It’s none of our business (不关我们的事). We’d better go home and don’t
get close to them. Also our parents are expecting to have dinner with us together at home and I don’t
want them to worry about me.”
“You are a coward (懦夫), and afraid to go,” said Ronny, and he ran to the place with some other
boys. Henry had to go home alone and didn’t think about it anymore.
But Ronny thought Henry was a coward and told all the boys that. They laughed at him a lot.
From then on, they looked down upon (看不起) Henry and didn’t want to play with him.
Henry was sad but he wasn’t angry with Ronny for his rude behavior, because he had learned that
true courage was shown most in bearing (忍受 ) misunderstanding. Thus, he just ignored the other
boys’ laughter and continued to stick to his thought and go to school and study as well. However,
Ronny didn’t invite Henry to go home with him anymore. Instead, he had his new friends who also
thought Henry was a coward. Every day after school, they went to the river or somewhere to play
games and had lots of fun.
