The workers who brought the girl to the orphanage(孤儿院)knew little about her. The streets where they found her had been her home for many years. Her parents were unknown. They left her long ago. At the orphanage, the girl, like all the children there, was taught to read and write. While she was studying at the orphanage, she learned something else-to be independent. At twenty-one,she left the orphanage and began work as a secretary. And then,in 1975, while she was still working as an ordinary secretary, something special happened. She entered the Miss Hong Kong competition and won it. This was the turning point in her life. Now her name, Mary Cheung, was known to everybody. Mary entered the competition because she wanted to show that orphanage girls could be something. Winning the competition gave her the chance to start a new life. This led her first into television and then into business as a manager. When she was working as a manager, she had trouble with her reports. “My English just wasn't good enough.” she says. Luckily, she had a boyfriend (who later became her husband) to help her. Mary studied management at Hong Kong Polytechnic and graduated in 1980. She started her own business in 1985. But she did not stop developing herself. She then studied at the University of Hong Kong. Since 1987, she had spent a lot of time on photography. She has held several exhibitions of her work in many places-China, New Zealand and Paris. She still found time, however, to work on TV, write for newspapers and bring up her family. The girl from the street has come a long way, but her journey is not finished yet.(1).Before Mary Cheung was brought to the orphanage,she had lived in the streets for many years.A.TB.F(2).The sentence "orphanage girls could be something" means that orphanage girls could be popular and successful.A.TB.F(3).Her life changed in 1985.A.TB.F(4).This passage is probably taken from a novel.A.TB.F(5).Mary's boyfriend was good at English.A.TB.F

第一篇Oseola McCartyLate one Sunday afternoon in September 1999,Oseola McCarty,an elderly cleaning lady passed away in the little wooden flame house where she had lived and worked most of her life.It may seem like an ordinary end to a humble life,but there was something quite exceptional about this woman.In the summer of 1995,McCarty gave $150,000,most of the money she had saved throughout her life, to the University of Southern Mississippi in her hometown. The money was to help other Mrican Americans through university.She had started her savings habit as a young child when she would return from school to clean and iron for money which she would then save.She led a simple,枷gal existence,never spending on anything but her most basic needs.Her bank also advised her on investing her hard-earned savings.When she retired,she decided that she wanted to use the money to give children of limited means the opportunity to go to university.She had wanted to become a nurse,but had to leave school to look after ill relatives and work.When asked why she had given her life savings away,she replied,"I'm giving it away so that children won't have to work so hard,like I did."After news of her donation hit the media,over 600 donations were made to the scholarship fund.One was given by media executive,Ted Turner,who reputedly gave a billion dollars.She didn't want any fuss made over her gift,but the news got out and she was invited all over the United States to talk to people.Wherever she went,people would come up to her to say a few words or just touch her. She met the ordinary and the famous,President Clinton included.In the last few years of her life, before she died of cancer,McCarty was given over 300 awards:she was honoured by the United Nations and received the Presidential Citizen's Medal.Despite having no real education,she found herself with two honorary doctorates:one from the University of Southern Mississippi and the other from Harvard University.Her generosity was clearly an inspiration to many people arid proof that true selflessness does exist.She gave her money away because________.A:she wanted to help the universityB:she wanted others to have the chance to become nursesC:she wanted others to have the opportunity to escape a hard lifeD:she wanted to he remembered after her death

问答题Practice 7 When Mary Lennox was sent to Misselthwaite Manor to live with her uncle everybody said she was the most disagreeable-looking child ever seen. It was true, too. She had a little thin face and a little thin body, thin light hair and a sour expression. Her hair was yellow, and her face was yellow because she had been born in India and had always been ill in one way or another. Her father had held a position under the English Government and had always been busy and ill himself, and her mother had been a great beauty who cared only to go to parties and amuse herself with gay people. She had not wanted a little girl at all, and when Mary was born she handed her over to the care of an Ayah, who was made to understand that if she wished to please the Mem Sahib she must keep the child out of sight as much as possible. So when she was a sickly, fretful, ugly little baby she was kept out of the way, and when she became a sickly, fretful, toddling thing she was kept out of the way also. She never remembered seeing familiarly anything but the dark faces of her Ayah and the other native servants. And as they always obeyed her and gave her her own way in everything, because the Mem Sahib would be angry if she was disturbed by her crying, by the time she was six years old she was as tyrannical and selfish a little pig as ever lived. The young English governess who came to teach her to read and write disliked her so much that she gave up her place in three months, and when other governesses came to try to fill it they always went away in a shorter time than the first one. So if Mary had not chosen to really want to know how to read books she would never have learned her letters at all.
