Years ago while lying in my hammock（吊床）and drinking JD from the bottle, I noticed my dog dragging something under the fence. Upon inspection, to my disappointment, I realized it was the next door neighbor’s 10 – year – old daughter’s rabbit. For years I had watched her come home from school and head straight out to its cage, free it and play with it in the yard. I knew that day would be no different and fearing for our dog, I had to think fast.
The rabbit was quite dirty, as if it had put up quite a struggle, so I washed it, combed it with the dog 
brush and blew it dry with the leaf blower. Upon finishing its grooming I jumped the fence and replaced it back in its cage hoping its death would be written off as “natural caused”.
Back to the hammock and JD. Within the hour the neighbor’s Volvo pulled in as usual and out popped the little girl, and as usual she headed straight for the cage. Only this time she stopped about six feet away and screamed: “D—A—D—D—Y!!!”.
Her father, panic stricken, stood looking at the cage. Being the good neighbor that I am, 
I rushed to fence and asked if there was anything I could do.
Her father less than calmly shouted, “What kind of sick individual would dig up a little girl’s rabbit and put it back in its cage?”The girl was shocked because .
| A．the rabbit was killed by someone |
| B．the rabbit was too clean |
| C．the dead rabbit was cleaned and put back into the cage |
| D．the rabbit was asleep in the cage |
That day the girl ran to the cage .
| A．because her rabbit was there |
B．because she had a habit of goin g there to see her rabbit |
| C．because she wanted to see her rabbit again |
| D．because the rabbit was dead |
We can infer that the rabbit .
| A．was alive before the writer saw his dog dragging it |
B．was already d ead before the writer saw his dog dragging it |
| C．was in the cage playing with the dog |
| D．was at the fence seeking out for food before it was killed by the dog |
According to the story, the writer .
| A．was helpful to his neighbor | B．did a smart thing |
| C．was honest | D．made a mistake |

Japanese students work very hard but many are unhappy, They feel heavy pressures from their parents to do well in school, Most students are always being told by their parents to study harder so that they can have a wonderful life, Though this may be good ideas for those very bright students, it can have very bad results for many students who are not quick enough at learning
Unfortunately, a number of students killed themselves, Others are after comfort in using druges, Some do bad things with trouble-makers and turn to crime, Many of them have tried very hard at school but have failed in the exams and have disappointed their parents, Such students feel that they are les important and leave school before they have finished their study.
It is surprising that though most Japanese parents are worried about their children , they do not help them in any way, Many parents feel that they are not able to help their children and that it is the teachers’work to help their children, To make matters worse, a lot of parents send their children to special schools called juku-cram schools, These schools are open during the evening and on weekeds , and their only purpose is to prepare students to apss exams; they do not try to educate students in any real sense of the real world, It thus comes as a shock to realize that almost three quarters of the junior or hight school population attend these cram schools,
Ordinary Japanese schools usually have rules about everything from the students’ hair to their clothes and things in their school bags. Child psychologists now think that such strick rules often lead to a feeling of being unsafe and being unable to fit into society, They regard the rules as being harmful to the development of each student, They believe that no sense of moral values is developed and that students are given neither guidance nor training in becoming good citizens

TWENTY-FIVEyears ago director Stephen Spielberg captured the hearts of Westen audiences with his family classic , E.T Now his Hong Kong dirctor Stephen Chow in trying to do the same trick in China,
Chow’s latest movie CJ7(《长江七号》)，in cinemas now,is a heart-warming story about a poor migrant worker(外来务工者) and his son . When a strange alien enters their lives, father and son learn a lesson about the value of family , Chow hopes his movie will help to make family films more popular in China.
Family films have been the main part of the Hollywood market for the last 40 years , They have given audiences movies like ET. Indiana Jones and Jurassic Park, However, there are few of these movies in China , where expensive history films are more popular.
A family film is not simply a children’s movie , It is a film that is not only suitable for children,but appeals to the whole family.
According to Raymound Zhou , a famous film critic, these films are rare in China because “very few families go to the cinema together’. Because of this , there is little demand for movise that appeal to the whole family,
However , in the West, it is common for the family to sit down and watch a movie together, Tim Bridges, from London, says :”I love it at Christmas when I sit down and watch a movie with my family.”
All family films contain similar messages about honest、remaining positive and learning there is more to life than money. According to the American movie reviewer, Dave Johnson, this is because “When parents watch a movie ,they wnt theier children to be learning good values”.
Just like when the alien in Spielberg’s E.T. phoens home to make contact with his family Chow will hope Chinese audiences are tuned in and ready to receive his family movie message.
