Joanne had planned to leave work early this afternoon, at three o’clock. But when she finally came out of her office, all the other conductors had already left. Now she was caught in a heavy traffic in central Birmingham at 5:30, and at 6:30 she was expected to be at a meeting.
At last, she arrived at her home. As she opened the door, she noticed something unusual about Sheba, a large dog. She could see easily Sheba was feeling bad and could hardly breathe（呼吸）. Joanne knew she would have to take her dog to the vet immediately.
“It looks like there’s something in her throat（喉咙）,” said Dr. Stern, “It shouldn’t take me too long to get it out.”
Being in a hurry, Joanne left the doctor with the dog and rushed back home. When she entered the house, the phone rang. Dr. Stern’s loud and worried voice was heard, “I want you to get right out of that house immediately. The police will be there any time now. Wait outside for us.” Joanne was surprised and afraid. She quickly ran into the street.
At that moment, a police car stopped outside the house. Two policemen got out and ran into the house through the still open door. Then the doctor arrived. Just then the two policemen reappeared from the house, half-carrying a white-faced man, who, it seemed, could hardly walk. There was blood（血）all over him.
“I think he must be a thief,” said the doctor. “I knew he was there because when I finally removed what was in Sheba’s throat, and found it was three human fingers.”
（ ）66. Where does Joanne probably work?
A. At a bus or train station. B. In an animal hospital.
C. In a police station. D. It isn’t mentioned.
（ ）67. When Joanne arrived home, she found that _________.
A. the door was open B. something was wrong with the dog
C. the dog couldn’t walk D. there was something in the dog’s throat
（ ）68. Why did the doctor ask her to get out of the house?
A. He wanted to meet her outside.
B. A thief would break into her house.
C. The police were coming to her house.
D. He thought there was a thief in her house.
（ ）69. The thief looked very sick because _________.
A. the dog had hurt him badly B. he was caught by the police
C. he caught a disease from the dog D. he didn’t find anything worthy to steal
（ ）70. Which do you think is NOT right according to the passage?
A. The police arrived soon after the vet called them.
B. Joanne didn’t know there was a thief in her house.
C. It took Joanne over three hours to drive home from work.
D. The doctor was not only a good vet but also a clever man.
D
In one way, it may be thought that failure is a part of life. In another, failure may be regarded as a step towards success.
The “spider-story” is often told as an example of this. Robert Bruce, leader of the Scots in the 13th century, was hiding in a hole on a hill from the English. He watched a spider（蜘蛛）making a web. Bruce is said to have got confidence from this and to have gone on to beat the English. Edison, too, the inventor of the light bulb（电灯泡）, made hundreds of models that failed before he found the right way to make one.
So what? First, always think about your failure. What caused it? Were you in high spirit then? What can you change so that things will go right the next time?
Second, is the goal（目标）you are trying to reach the right one? Try to do some thinking about what your real goals may be. Think about this question: “If I am successful in this, where will it get me?” This may help to prevent failure in the things you shouldn’t be doing anyway.
The third thing to remember about failure is that it’s a part of life. Learn to “live with yourself” even though you may have failed. Remember, “You can’t win them all.”
（ ）71. Robert Bruce was mentioned in the passage to show that _________.
A. people who fail are not lonely B. animals can help people sometimes
C. nature will help us if we are hard-working D. confidence is important for one to be successful
（ ）72. Edison’s example show us that _________.
A. he liked to do other kinds of work B. he invented many kinds of light bulbs
C. failure may be a way towards success D. he was a man of many important inventions
（ ）73. If you are not sure about what success will get you, you’d better _________.
A. change your goal B. go on with your goal
C. not care for that D. work even harder on your goal
（ ）74. It can be learned from the passage that _________.
A. one should try not to fail B. one’s failure is another’s success
C. one should take failure seriously D. one should learn lessons from failure
（ ）75. This passage is mainly about _________.
A. two great men B. two sides of failure
C. ways to keep away from failure D. the right attitude（态度）towards failure

Maybe your math teacher has already taught you how to find the center of a circle. It is not easy to learn and it takes some time to do so. Here is a way.
First put a corner of a square piece of paper on a given circle and you will see the two sides the piece of paper meet the circle. And then you will get two points on the circle. You may name them Point A and Point B. Now draw a straight line through the Point A and Point B. You can get Line AB. Then, you must do the same thing a second time in a different place to get another two points, Point C, Point D and Line CD. You must write them down on the paper by yourself. You will find the center at once: the two lines cross at a point you may call it point O and this point is just the center of the circle.
How about trying to see if it is easy to learn and remember this simple way of finding the center of a circle?

One possible version:
I think you’d better take the “11 Days of China Grand Tour.” First, that’s the days you want, about 10 days. Second, it is cheaper. Third, you can see different kinds of scenery during this trip. You’ll visit two important cities of China-Beijing and Shanghai. In these two cities, you’ll visit the Forbidden City, the Great Wall, the Temple of Heaven, the Shanghai Museum and the Oriental Pearl TV Tower. So you can experience old and new China. Suzhou is famous for silk and beautiful gardens. Hainan has different kinds of weather and scenery. There are many things to see, such as Wanquan River, Hairui Tomb and Tianya Haijiao. There is also scuba diving, fishing and boating I think you’ll have a wonderful time.
