One cold morning in winter, when I was a little boy, a smiling man with an ax on his shoulder stopped me, saying: “My pretty boy, has your father a grindstone(砂轮)”

“Yes , sir,” said I.

“You are a fine little fellow!” said the man. “Will you let me grind(磨) my ax?”

Pleased with the flattery, I answered, “Oh, yes, sir. The grindstone is down in the shop.”

Patting me on my head, he said, “Will you get me some hot water?” I ran and brought the hot water.

“How old are you, and what is your name?” he asked without waiting for a reply, “Im sure you are one of the finest boys I have ever seen. Will you turn the grindstone a few minutes for me?”

Hearing the flattery again, I went to work with a will. It was a new ax, and I worked hard until I was almost tired to death. The school bell rang, but I could not get away, because the ax was not half ground.

At last, however, it was sharpened. Then the man turned to me and said, “Now, you little rascal(小坏蛋), youve played truant(逃课)! Run to school, or youll be sorry!”

“Alas!” thought I. “It was hard enough to turn a grindstone this old day, but now to be called a rascal is too much.”

The memory of turning the grindstone that winter morning sank into my mind. I have thought of it since. Now, whenever I hear words of flattery, I say to myself. “That man has an ax to grind.”

Maupassant was born in France in 1850. His parents separated when he was about six, and he went to live with his mother. At the age of thirteen , he was sent to school, but was forced(被迫) to leave there. He went to another school and there he was praised for an excellent poem(诗) he wrote. In this way he began his writing at an early age. During the Franco-Prussian War(普法战争), he had to give up writing. After the war, he went to Paris to look for a job which he hoped would leave him free time to write. It was in Paris that he met one of the greatest writers, from whom he learned a great deal.

Though he found material(素材) for many stories while working as a clerk(职员), he found life in the office restricted(受限制的). After one of his stories was published, he left his office in order to spend full time writing. By the age of thirty-four, he became quite famous. During this time, he wrote some of his best-known works, including The Diamond Necklace, one of the most famous short stories in the world.

In the early days of sea travel, seamen on long voyages lived exclusively on salted meat and biscuits. Many of them died of scurvy(坏血病), a disease of the blood which causes swollen gums, livid white spots on the flesh and general exhaustion. On one occasion, in 1535, an English ship arrived in Newfoundland with its crew desperately ill. The mens lives were saved by Iroquois Indians who gave them vegetable leaves to eat. Gradually it came to be realized that scurvy was caused by some lack in the sailors diet and captain Cook, on his long voyages of discovery to Australia and New Zealand, established the fact that scurvy could be warded off by the provision of fresh fruit for the sailors.

Nowadays it is understood that a diet which contains nothing harmful may yet result in serious disease if certain important elements are missing. These elements are called “vitamins”. Quite a number of such substances are known and they are given letters to identify them, A,B,C,D, and so on. Different diseases are associated with deficiencies of particular vitamins. Even a slight lack of Vitamin C, for example, the vitamin most plentiful in fresh fruit and vegetables, is thought to increase significantly our susceptibility(敏感度) to colds and influenza.

The vitamins necessary for a healthy body are normally supplied by a good mixed diet, including a variety of fruit and green vegetables. It is only when people try to live on a very restricted diet, say during extended periods of religious fasting(斋戒), or when trying to lose weight, that it is necessary to make special provision to supply the missing vitamins.

64. Scurvy is a disease that is caused by______.

A. salted meat and biscuits

B. exhaustion

C. want of some essential substances

D. lack of fresh vegetables and fruits

A. not to eat much salted meat

B. to supplement our diet with various vitamin pills

C. to have more fresh fruit and vegetables

D. to develop a good dietary habit

67. Based on the passage we can safely conclude that if our diet is NOT comprehensive enough_____ .

A. vitamin pills are of no avail

B. nutritious food might be unhealthy

Two students started quarreling at school. One student shouted dirty words at the other, and a fight began.

What can be done to stop fights like this at school? In some schools, the disputants(争执者) sit down with peer mediators. Peer mediators are students with special training in this kind of problems.

Peer mediators help the disputants to talk in a friendly way. Here are some of the ways they use:

1. Put what you think clearly but dont say anything to hurt the other. Begin with “I feel ...” instead of “You always ...”

2. Listen carefully to what the other person is saying. Dont stop the other persons words.

3. Keep looking at the other persons eyes when he or she talks.

4. Try to see the other persons side of the problem.

5. Never put anyone down. Saying things like “You are foolish” makes the talk difficult.

6. Try to find a result that makes both people happy.

Peer mediators never decide the result or the winner. They dont decide who is right and who is wrong. Instead, they help the two students to find their own “win-win” result. A “win-win” result can make everyone feel good.

Peer mediators work is often successful just because it gets people to talk to each other. And getting people to talk to each other is the first step in finding a “win-win” result.

Remember when a trip to the supermarket was nothing more than a boring thing requiring little or no specialized knowledge? You could send your kids into a cart while you did shopping. You always bought the same brands, usually the brands your mother bought. You didnt know about unit pricing, and furthermore, you didnt care. It never occurred to you to read the labels on anything. After all, youd bought these things a hundred times.

But now, I really look on those days with a feeling of yearn(怀旧). How innocent we were! How carefree were those trips to the supermarket. No worries. Today a trip to the supermarket is filled with social influence. Every time I buy pork chops I think about the years Im shaving from my life. I keep a careful eye on the freshness date and examine the tamper—proof packaging. I am a victim of that most dangerous social disease: shoppers panic.

I didnt realize how serious my condition had become until the last time I needed laundry soap. It seemed simple enough. Just run into the market, grab a box of the old reliable and pay for it. I hadnt planned on discovering Ecover, a new brand of laundry soap. It sat quietly on the shelf right next to my old reliable. “Healthy, gentle but effective.” My respect for it deepened with each new claim as I read the entire package. Then I looked at the price: $ 5.69 for 2 pounds. $ 5.69 ! I cast a quick glance at the old reliable, still on sale for $ 1. 39.

Six bucks for laundry soap! These people must be crazy! Whos going to pay six bucks for laundry soap? Its not as though I cant afford it. See, its concentrated use- less, get more. BUT SIX BUCKS! And the box is made from recycled materials ... This act went on for a solid half hour, after which I left the shelf without any soap at all.

Surely the meat department is most threatening place. Remember when protein was good for you? Thats all over. Every bite you take kills you. I wont even mention meats moral influence.

When all is said and done, we still must eat. I gather up my healthy cooking oil and my recycled paper towels and head to the checkout counter.

72. In the first paragraph, the author mainly wants to tell us that in the past_____ .

A. it was convenient to go shopping in the supermarket

B. shopping in the supermarket was very boring

C. we never read the labels of commodities in the supermarket

D. we used to buy the same brands of products in the supermarket

73. Recalling the old days shopping in the supermarket, the author thinks it was____.

A. pleasant B. fresh

C. dangerous D. crazy

74. Eating pork chops will mean that_____ .

A. you must have a shave after that

B. you should think of the old days

C. you are killing yourself slowly

D. you must go on diet after that

75. Whats the authors problem?

A. She is too poor to afford the new brands in the supermarket.

B. She cannot not find the right laundry soap in the supermarket.

C. She has to use the most healthy things because of her poor health.

D. She is greatly affected by social influences.
