It was Saturday morning. I heard loud noises of moving furniture in the next room. I could almost feel the excitement of John who was soon going to get a room of his own. I remember my own feelings when I was 13. I knew how much he longed for his right to privacy (私人空间) when he was sharing a room with his younger brother, Robot. He said, “Mum, Can I please have a room of my own? I could use Jeff’s. He won’t mind.”
It was true that Jeff had graduated from college and flown from the nest. But would he mind? The room was the place where I told him a thousand stories and we had a thousand talks. As close as we were, though, the time came when Jeff needed a door between us. His life was spreading into areas that had less to do with family. I no longer could-or should-know everything about him.
It turned out that getting Jeff’s permission was easy. He said, “Of course, Mum, it would be selfish of me to hold on to it.” Then his voice softened, “Mum, I won’t be living at home again—you know that.” Behind his glasses, his eyes were lit with all the love. There were no door closed here—they had all opened up again.
As John and I were cleaning the room, I fixed my eyes on Jeff’s things around me and could almost touch the little boy I knew was gone forever. I looked at the room and, in my heart, I let it go. To hold on would be, as Jeff said, selfish. Now it was time for John, shouldering through the door, his eyes bright with promise of independence, to disappear behind the door. It was time for letting go to happen again.
Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A.John was moving to live with his brother.
B.John was eager to get a room of his own.
C.Jeff volunteered to give his room to John.
D.Jeff refused to let his brother have his room.

The underlined sentence in the second paragraph probably means “______”.

A.Jeff finally flew out of the house
B.Jeff would have less to do with his family
C.Jeff needed his right to privacy
D.Jeff got tired of those familiar stories

How did the author feel about her children’s sense of independence?

A.Delighted. B.Jealous. C.Confused. D.Embarrassed.

It can be inferred from the passage that ______.

A.the children did not like to live with adults
B.all her three kids made the author feel depressed
C.none of the members in the family thought the same way
D.the author loved and missed the time together with her kids

Advertisements can be placed nearly everywhere to catch our attention. They have even become popular on the Internet. That means that customers can see them at any time and from any place. In cities, you can see them on the sides of buses, taxis and trains. There are advertisements high up on the sides of buildings. The names of famous brands, like Nike, Pepsi, Guess and Apple, appear on shoes, clothing and bags. So when people use these branded products in their daily life, they are helping the producers to sell more of them.
Every company gets you to recognize its name. The company name is always printed in the same way, using the same letters and the same colors. So, when customers see the same “look” of the company name day-in and day-out, they begin to recognize it without having to read it.
We cannot predict the future of advertising, but one thing is certain___ advertisements are here to stay and will always change the way of our life.
Title: 53____________

Hundreds of years ago, life was much harder than it is today, people did not have modern machines. There was no modern medicine, either.
Life today has brought new problems. One of the biggest is pollution. Water pollution has made our rivers and lakes dirty. It kills our fish and affects our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us talk louder and become angry more easily. Air pollution is the most serious kind of pollution. It affects every living thing in the world.
Cars, planes and factories all pollute our air every day. Sometimes the pollution is so thick that it is like a quilt(被子) over a city. This kind of quilt is called smog.
Many countries are making new laws to fight pollution. Factories must now clean their water before it is thrown away; they mustn’t blow dirty smoke into the air.
We need to do many other things. We can put waste things in the dustbin and not throw them on the ground. We can go to work by bus or with our friends in the some car. If there are fewer people driving, there will be less pollution.
Laws are not enough. Every person must help to fight pollution.
