A

In May, my friend Jess and I started looking for summer jobs. After a couple of weeks of looking for work in the retail (零售) and fast food industries, Jess and I decided to try something different. We decided to go into business for ourselves!

Jess and I both love dance. One day, my aunt asked us to organize a birthday party for her daughter. She thought we could organize a dance party, so we gave it a try. First we did a dance show for them. Then we taught them some ballet basics. The girls really love it!

Jess and I thought of ways to make our parties bigger and better. We went to the library and borrowed books on magic and Chinese paper cutting. Jess’s uncle knows how to make toy animals and taught us how. Then he gave us a book that teaches you how to juggle (玩杂耍). Jess loves to practice.

Later, we were asked to do a party for Canada Day. Before long, we were busy several times a week doing birthday parties. The people loved us! We even came up with the idea of offering to supply cakes and snacks because my aunt is a pastry chef (面点师).

Now we have our own website, and have decided to work throughout the year, doing one party a week. We call our business Jess “n” Jackie Party Planners. We love being our own boss and enjoy working together to make our business better.

My teenage son Karl became withdrawn after his father died. As a single parent, I tried to do my best to talk to him. But the more I tried, the more he pulled away. When his report card arrived during his junior year, it said that he had been absent 95 times from classes and had six falling grades for the year. At this rate he would never graduate. I sent him to the school adviser, and I even begged him. Nothing worked.

One night I felt so powerless that I got down on my knees and begged for help. “Please God, I can’t do anything more for my son. I’m at the end of my rope. I’m giving the whole thing up to you.”

- 5 -

I was at work when I got a phone call. A man introduced himself as the headmaster. “I want to talk to you about Karl’s absences.” Before he could say another word, I cried and all my disappointment and sadness over Karl came pouring out into the ears of this stranger. “I love my son but I just don’t know what to do. I’ve tried everything to get Karl to go back to school and nothing has worked. It’s out of my hands.” For a moment there was silence on the other end of the line. The headmaster seriously said, “Thank you for your time”, and hung up.

Karl’s next report card showed a marked improvement in his grades. Finally, he even made the honor roll. In his fourth year, I attended a parent-teacher meeting with Karl. I noticed that his teachers were astonished at the way he had turned himself around. On our way home, he said, “Mum, remember that call from the headmaster last year?” I nodded. “That was me.

I thought I’d play a joke but when I heard what you said, it really hit me how much I was hurting you. That’s when I knew I had to make you proud.”

B. He was even on the list of students who were lazy.

C. He was even on the list of the best students at school.

D. He was even on the list of students who were always late for school.

A black hole is created when a large star burns out. The death of a star is not a quiet event. First there is a huge explosion. As its outer layer is blasted off into space, the dying star shines as brightly as a billion suns.

After the explosion, gravity pulls in what’s left of the star. As the outside of the star sinks toward the center, the star gets smaller and smaller. The material the star is made of becomes tightly packed together. A star is so solid that a teaspoon of matter from it weighs billion of pounds.

Soon the star is very tiny, and the gravity pulling it in is unbelievably strong. In fact, the gravity is so strong that it even pulls light into the star! The star becomes black when there is no light. Then a black hole is born!

That’s what we know about black holes. What we don’t know is this: What happens inside a black hole after the star has been squeezed into a tiny ball? Does it keep getting smaller and smaller forever? Such a possibility is hard to imagine.

But if the black hole doesn’t keep shrinking, what happens to it? Some scientists think black holes are like doorways to another world. They say that as the star disappears from our universe, it goes into another universe. In other words a black hole in our universe could turn into a “white hole” in a different universe. As the black hole swallows(吞噬) light, the white hole shines brightly---somewhere else. But where? A different place, perhaps, or a different time---many years in the past or future.

Could you travel through a black hole? Right now, no. So far the time being, the black hole must remain a mystery, but that hasn’t stopped scientists from dreaming about them.

32. When the star begins to die, ______.

A. there is no fuel left in it

B. its outer layer goes into space first

C. a huge explosion will happen

D. it doesn’t give off light any longer

33. What can help to produce a black hole?

A. The light can’t go out of the star.

- 7 -

B. The star becomes smaller and smaller.

C. The gravity inside the star is very strong.

D. All the above.

34. Which description of the black hole is correct definitely?

A. It will appear at another place at a different time.

B. It can pull in everything we know of in the world.

C. It continues becoming smaller and smaller all the time.

D. It goes into another universe and becomes a white hole.

35. What’s the best title for this passage?

A. What Are Black Holes?

B. Travel Through A Black Hole

C. How Do Black Holes Come Into Being?

D. A New Scientific Discovery: Black Holes

The cost of a smile

Kathy was a young woman in her 20’s who worked in a small restaurant as a waitress. One day, as she went about her shift with her usual angry look, a kind old man walked in and sat down at the counter. He read the menu and politely told her what he wanted.

- 11 -

Kathy took his order, and yelled, “Your food will be ready soon.” As she turned to leave, the man said, “A smile costs nothing”. Kathy rolled her eyes at him and walked away.

She brought his order, cleared his plates and gave him the bill, for which he left a nice tip.

Each time the old man saw her, he smiled and thanked her. This only made her angrier.

A week went by, and every day the man came for lunch and the same thing happened. And each time Kathy took his order he would say, “A smile costs nothing.”

But a week later, Kathy picked up a menu, wrote the words “I SMILE......＄20” at the bottom, and placed it on the counter for the kind old man to see.

He came, and Kathy waited for his reaction as he read the menu. The old man ordered his usual and added, “... and a smile, if you don’t mind”. Kathy was so surprised. She laughed out loud, “Now, now...” The man jokingly scolded. “I ordered a smile, not a laugh”. So Kathy put on a bright smile and said, “Coming right up, sir.” And to her surprise, he left ＄20 tip!

A few years went by, and the two bonded like family. Charlie, the kind old man, was a retired manager whose wife passed away long ago. He spent most of his time at home, with exception of his frequent restaurant visits. Every day Kathy spent her break talking to him.
