A farmer had a brother in town who was a gardener, and had a garden full of the finest fruit trees. So his skill and his beautiful trees were famous everywhere. One day the farmer went into town to visit his brother, and was surprised at the trees that grew quite well.
“Look, my brother,” said the gardener. “I will give you an apple tree, the best from my garden, and you, and your children, and your children’s children will enjoy it.”
Then the gardener called his workmen and ordered them to take up the tree and carry it to his brother’s farm. They did so, and the next morning the farmer began to wonder where he should plant it.
“If I plant it on the hill,” he said to himself, “the wind might catch it and shake down the delicious fruit before it is ripe. If I plant it close to the road, passers-by will see it and take away the apples—but if I plant it too near the door of my house, my children may pick the fruit.” So, after he had thought the matter over, he planted the tree behind his barn (谷仓).
Time passed, but the tree had no fruit the first year, nor the second—then the farmer sent for his brother. When the gardener came, the farmer said angrily, “You have cheated me, and given me a useless tree instead of a fruitful one. This is the third year and still brings out nothing but leaves!”
The gardener laughed and said, “See where the tree was planted, it has no sun or warmth. How, then, could you expect flowers and fruit?”

A. behind his barn
B. on the hill
C. close to the road
D. near the door of his house

I sat with my friend in a well-known coffee shop in Venice. As we enjoyed our coffee, a man entered and sat on an empty table beside us. He called the waiter and placed his order saying, Two cups of coffee, one of them on the wall. We heard this order with rather interest and observed that he was served with one cup of coffee but he paid for two. As soon as he left, the waiter pasted(贴) a piece of paper on the wall saying A Cup of Coffee. A few minutes later, two other men entered and ordered three cups of coffee, two on the table and one on the wall. They had two cups of coffee but paid for three and left. This time also, the waiter did the same; he pasted a piece of paper on the wall saying, A Cup of Coffee. It seemed that this gesture was quite normal here. However, it was something unique and puzzling for us. When we finished our coffee, we paid the bill and left.
After a few days, we went to this coffee shop again. While we were enjoying our coffee, a man entered. The way this man was dressed did not match the standard nor the atmosphere of this coffee shop. Poverty was obvious from the looks on his face. As he seated himself, he looked at the wall and said, one cup of coffee from the wall. The waiter served coffee to this man with the customary respect and dignity. The man had his coffee and left without paying. We were amazed to watch all this when the waiter took off a piece of paper from the wall and threw it in the dustbin.
Now it was no surprise for us the matter was very clear. The great respect for the needy shown by the inhabitants of this town welled up our eyes with tears.
68. What’s the best title for this passage?
A. One More Coffee
B. Coffee on the Wall

D.A Cup of Coffee

In most developed countries the government provides free education for children because it realizes that educated citizens are useful to the country in their later life. Most countries also have private (私立的)education. This means that parents can pay to send their children to certain schools. People who agree with this system say that it gives parents a larger choice of schools. Other people think that private schools give the children who go to them an unfair advantage over other children.
At the age of three, many children go to nursery school. Two or three years later, they enter a primary school. At the age of 11 they go to a secondary school. Then they may have a chance .of continuing their studies at a university or college.
Universities and colleges are places where some young people go to continue their education after leaving school. Most university students study one main subject, though they may also study a number of others. Teaching is usually by lectures, or by discussions between a lecturer and students.
Most students stay at university for three or four years. At the end of that, they take an examination. If they pass, they receive their Bachelor’s degree, usually a BA, which is short for Bachelor of Arts, or a BS for Bachelor of Science. Some students study for several more years in order to get higher degree, such as a MA or a PhD
Most university courses don’t train students to do a certain job. Colleges, on the other hand, usually teach skills which enable students to follow a career(职业), such as clothing design, or business studies.
72. The passage mainly tells us_______.
A Something about the private schools in developed countries
B. How developed countries pay attention to education
C. Some general information about education in developed countries
Why education is important
73. Why do most developed countries provide free education to children?
A. Because the children don’ t have money to go to school.
B. Because the government want their citizens to be useful to the country.
C. Because education doesn’t cost the country too much money.
D. Because there are not enough private schools.
74. In the first paragraph the underlined word “citizens” refer to________.
A. the cities
B. members of a country
C. the children
D. people who lives in cities
75.Which of the following statement is true according to the passage?
A. All the university students study one subject.
B. After studying at the university for three or four years, all the students can
get a Bachelor’s degree.
C. Students usually receive a master’s degree before receiving a Bachelor’s degree.
D. Unlike university, colleges usually teach students some useful skills for a career.

Dear Li Hua,
I feel sorry that you have some trouble in learning English. However, the situation is easy to change if you take my advice. Here are some tips to help you.
Firstly, it is important to communicate with your teacher and your classmates in English, as you will be able to learn from your teacher and classmates.
Secondly, you should read more English books, magazines and watch some English movies . By doing so , you will learn and remember English words more easily.
Thirdly, it would be a good idea if you make some British or American pen-friends. I’m quite sure that they will help you learn English.
I hope you can learn English well.
Yours sincerely,
Jiao Yang
