I argued (争吵) with Ben, one of my classmates, badly when I was in Grade 7. I have forgotten what the argument was about, but I have never forgotten the lesson I learned that day.
I believed that I was right and he was wrong, and Ben believed that I was wrong and he was right. Our teacher, a kind and smart lady, decided to teach us a lesson. She brought us to the front of the class and placed him on one side of her desk and me on the other. In the middle of her desk was a large and round object I could clearly see that it was black. The teacher asked us what colour the object was. To my surprise, Ben answered “white”. I couldn’t believe he said the object was white! “Clearly, it was black!”. Another argument started between Ben and me, this time about the colour of the object.
The teacher told me to go and stand where Ben was standing and told him to go and stand where I was standing. We changed places, and now she asked me what colour the object was. I had to answer, “White.” It was an object with two differently coloured sides—from his side it was white, while from my side it was black. “Boys, now, what do you say?” The teacher smiled at us. Ben has been my best friend ever since.
My teacher taught me a very important lesson that day: When you disagree with others, you’d better be in their shoes. That will help you look at the thing through their eyes, and truly understand their ideas and ways of thinking.
5. How did the writer feel when Ben answered “White” in Paragraph 2?
A. Afraid. B. Surprised. C. Pleased. D. Thankful.
6. The writer gave two different answers because ________.
A. he turned around the object B. he was unfriendly to Ben
C. he changed his place with Ben D. he wanted to have another argument
7. The writer would ________ after this lesson.
A. be angry with the teacher B. forget the arguments
C. sit in the front of the class D. be kind to Ben
8. The purpose of the passage is to tell us to ________.
A. look at things in another way B. think carefully before we do anything
C. have different ideas at any time D. be friendly to others

①Some people have to use public transport. Some dislike it and some love it. If everyone has a car and drives anywhere they want to go, there will be serious traffic problems on the road. Luckily, trains are a good form of public transport.
②British people use trains a lot. This is especially for people who are traveling from London to Paris. Every day about 20 trains leave London. They travel at a high speed and people feel glad that the trains take only 2 hours and 30 minutes to reach Paris. It’s much faster to travel by train than by bus or by car. This is because people have to drive cars or buses very carefully and slowly for many reasons, such as speed limits and traffic jams. However, when you are traveling by train, the speed is almost the same and there is no traffic jam.
③Besides, Londoners think taking a train is one of the safest ways of traveling on the ground. Trains take quite a number of quality (质量) tests when they are made. More importantly, they have to take many safety checks before they are used on the rail track (轨道).
④What’s more trains in Britain are comfortable and provide fine services for their users. When you are on a London train, you will find that the train has comfortable tables and seats where people can sit. They also provide food services and power plugs (电源插头) for personal computers or mobile phones.
⑤With the development of the modern technology and transport, travelling by train may become less and less popular. But there will be always people who enjoy the good service and beautiful scenery along the railway.
13. The writer begins the passage by ________.
A. telling a story B. listing numbers C. giving a fact D. asking a question

Life wasn’t easy for Penny. When she was in middle school, she wanted to go to a private (私人的) high school. But her family couldn’t pay for it. Then Penny went to a local public school and made it work. But in her senior year, she got more bad news — her dad lost his job. Her parents told her they couldn’t help pay for college.
You can see where this story line might go: Penny gives up and takes a tiring job. But that didn’t happen. Instead, she took a part-time job and worked hard.
Penny’s life isn’t perfect. She works too many hours to spend as much time studying as she’d like to. But Penny, now 21, is studying to be a special education (特殊教育) teacher.
When life knocks you down. are you able to adjust to (适应) the changes like Penny? Robert Brooks of Harvard Medical School says there are many things that teenagers can do to solve the problems.
First, stay with people who make you stronger. Don’t put up with (容忍) friends who put you down. Second, discover something you’re good at. Then you can develop a sense of pride that will help you succeed in dealing with problems in other areas of your life. Third, believe things will get better. “If teenagers are feeling down, they will feel their whole life is going to be that way. In fact, most of the problems are solvable,” Brooks says. Lastly, do some volunteer work. Helping others gives you a chance to feel you’re making a difference to the world.
41. What happened to Penny when she was in her senior year?
______________________________
42. How did Penny pay for her college?
