It was one of the hottest days of the
dry season. We had not seen rain
1
almost a month. The crops were
dying. If we
2
see some rain soon, we would lose
everything.
I was making lunch in the
kitchen when I saw my
3
son, Billy, walking towards the woods.
He was walking
with a great effort...
trying to be as still as possible. Minutes later,
he was once again walking towards the woods. I
4
stand it any longer. I went
out of the house and followed him.
He
was cupping both hands in front of him as he
walked, being very careful not to spill
(
溢出)
the water he
carried.
As I came closer, I
saw
5
sight. Several
large deer stood in front of him. Billy walked
straight up to them.
I almost screamed
for him to get away. But the deer
6
hurt him nor even moved as Billy got
down. And then I
saw a baby deer
7
on the ground, thirsty,
lift its head to lap up(
舔
)
the water in my boy
’
s hands.
When the
water was gone, Billy jumped
up to run back to the house. I followed him back
to a tap. Billy opened it and let the
drip slowly fill up his
“
cup
”
.
8
he
stood
up
and
began
to
turn
back,
I
was
there
in
front
of
him.
His
little
eyes
9
with
tears.
Very
quickly, he explained
10
he was not wasting water. The week
before, he had made
11
same trouble with
our
horses,
12
caused him a
lecture from his father about the importance of
not wasting water.
This time, I joined
him, with a small pot of water from the kitchen. I
let him
13
the baby deer
alone , for
it was
14
job. As the tears that
rolled down my face began to hit the ground, they
15
by other drops...
more drops... and more. I looked up at
the sky. All I can say is that the rain came that
day saved our farm, just like
the
actions of one little boy saved the little deer.

Last winter vacation, my brother got a
set of bedroom furniture for his thirteenth
birthday. When it arrived, I
helped my
parents moved the
16
furniture to the
garage
(车库)
. It was still in
good condition. I thought it
might be a
chance for us to
17
someone in our community. I started to
search neighbors, anyone who
18
a bedroom set. Finally, my mom helped
me call the local primary school. They told me
about Jaila, the daughter of a
poor
single mother. I was given a telephone number and
19
, and I soon found myself
at Jaila’s.
The moment I
went into Jaila’s room, I knew I had taken on
too
big a task. When I pushed the old
door open, it
made a long high noise.
But the door was nothing compared with the rest of
the room. Some old paint was
20
the wall. One of the windows was
21
. The bed was just a
mattress
(
床垫)
on
the old carpet. It seemed that the
room
needed
22
furniture
—
it cried
—
for a complete
makeover
(翻新)
.
That day I spent at least an hour
looking around and
23
how I could possibly fixed the room. I
had never
painted a wall, let alone
fixed a floor. The second day, I returned with a
large group of helpers
—
my
close friends.
We went to collect
everything needed door to door in our community.
We replaced and repainted Jaila’s room. We
sweated in Ja
ila’s house for
more than ten hours every day that
week.
The moment we
finished, we called Jaila into the room. She
jumped, laughed and
hugged each of us.
I turned to Jaila’s mother, and saw she had tears
running down her face.
“
Anna,” Jaila called my
name
24
.
“
Yes
?”
“
Welcome to my new
room!”
When we
saw
how
happy
Jaila
and
her
mother
were, our
tiredness
disappeared
into
thin
air.
We are really
25
to make a special experience of
changing someone’s life.

In the United States, when one becomes
rich, he wants people to know it. And even if he
does not become
very rich, he wants
people to thin
k that he is. That is
what “keeping up with the Joneses” is about. It is
the story of
someone who tried to look
as rich as his neighbors.
The
express0ion was first used in 1913 by a young
American called Arthur Momand. He told this story
about
himself.
He began earning $$ 125 a week at the age of 23.
That was a lot of money in those days. He got
married and
moved with his wife to a
very wealthy neighborhood outside New York City.
When he saw that rich people rode
horses, Momand went horseback riding
every day. When he saw that rich people had
servants, Momand and his
wife also
hired a servant and gave big parties for their new
neighbors.
It was like a race, but one
could never finish his race because one was always
trying to keep up. The race ended
for
Momand
and
his
wife
when
they
could
no
longer
pay
for
their
new
way
of
life.
They
moved
back
to
an
apartment in New York City.
Momand looked around him and noticed
that many people do things just to keep up with
rich lifestyle of their
neighbors. He
saw the funny side of it and started to write a
series of short stories. He called it
Joneses” because “Jones” is a very
common name in the United States.“Keeping up with
the Joneses” came to mean
keeping
up
with
rich
lifestyle
of
the
people
aroun
d
you.
Momand’s
series
appeared
in
different
newspapers
throughout the
country for over 28 years. People never seem to
get tired of keeping up with the Joneses. And
there
are “Joneses” in every city of
the world. But one must get tired of trying to
keep up
with the Joneses because no
matter what one
does, Mr. Jones always seems to be
ahead.
(
)31. Some people want to
keep up with the Joneses because they
.
A. want to be as rich as their
neighbors
B. want others to know or to
think that they are rich
C. don’t want

D. want to look like their neighbors
(
)32. It can be inferred from the story

.

live outside New York City
B. live in New York City
C.

with many neighbors

short stories because at
that time “Jones” is in the United
States.

C. his
neighbor’s name
D. not a good
name

Although people everywhere seem to
enjoy drinking coffee
,
they
don't all have the same coffee culture. In
Europe for example, coffee shops are
common places for people to meet friends while
they drink coffee. On the
other hand,
places like this were not as common in North
America in the past. Instead, people in North
America
liked to drink coffee in their
homes with friends. The coffee culture in the USA
changed, when Starbucks
(
星巴克
)
coffee
shops spread throughout the
country
.
The
first Starbucks coffee shop opened in 1971 in
downtown Seattle,
Washington
,
in the USA. It
was a small
coffee shop that cooked its
own coffee beans. The coffee shop's business did
well, and by 1981 there were three
Starbucks stores in Seattle.
