In my memory, my dad always encouraged me to be my best self, explore the world, and believe in those who cared and loved me, which helped to make me who I am today. Besides, I’ve grown up with a pretty good model that my father always was.

One year, my father nearly lost his life. He was twenty-seven years old then. For several months, he’d been suffering from stomach pains. My dad was a former track star, so he knew how to handle pain. Convinced it was nothing serious, he just made a face until it was over whenever it flared up. My mom and dad were visiting his parents in Englewood, New Jersey when extreme pain struck my dad again. However, that time, the pain didn’t fade away although my father tried to take control of it. Meanwhile, my dad developed a high fever. My grandparents rushed him to a nearby hospital. The doctors in the emergency room were confused about his condition. My dad’s symptoms seemed consistent with appendicitis (阑尾炎), but the pain wasn’t localized to the lower part of his stomach, where the appendix (阑尾) is located. While they were debating what to do, a 33-year-old surgeon named Dr. Ibrahim, spoke up. “It must be an appendix.” Dr. Ibrahim guessed it was a rare condition and insisted that my dad should receive an operation immediately, although others were against his decision.

Dr. Ibrahim turned out to be very correct. My dad was wheeled into surgery and his appendix was removed just before it could burst and cause a deadly infection. At last, he got rid of danger.

What if my father hadn’t been in Englewood that day? What if young Dr. Ibrahim hadn’t been there to point out what the older and more experienced doctors hadn’t considered? He was in the right place at the right time, and it saved his life. Now I am a father of two children. Like my father I will never forget Dr. Ibrahim.

4. What can we know about the author’s father?( )

AHe set a good example for the author.

BHe was in poor health in his younger days.

CHe seldom helped the author overcome troubles.

DHe liked to learn from others to improve himself.

5. Why did the author mention that his father was a former sports star?( )

ATo show off his father’s achievements.

BTo prove his father’s strong will power.

CTo explain why his father always suffered pains.

DTo emphasize the importance of taking exercise.

6. Which can best replace the underlined phrase “flared up” in Paragraph 2?( )

Aslid quickly

Bstayed for a while

Cdisappeared gradually

Dbroke out suddenly

7. What’s the passage mainly about?( )

AA terrible family travel experience.

BThe determination of the author’s father.

CA timely operation on the author’s father.

DThe importance of learning from experience.

The biggest challenge faced by travelers especially those who like to have a backpacking trip is how to ensure a steady supply of clean clothes. Now, thanks to a great invention called Scrubba Wash Pack, that worry may be a thing of the past.

The portable washing machine was invented by Ash Newland in 2010, while planning to climb Mt. Kilimanjaro. Struck by the limited packing space, he got inspiration from traditional washboards to create a bag that could be used to clean clothes. Then he quitted his career as a lawyer and focused on perfecting the bag’s design. By 2012, the bag was ready for the public. It weighed only 180 grams and required very little storage space, making it perfect for anyone wishing to travel light.

Not surprisingly, the bag worth 55 dollars was in instant hit with travelers, university students and even passengers. However, Newland was not satisfied. He still saw a disadvantage with his invention—dirty clothes had to be carried around in a separate bag! The recently introduced Scrubba Wash Pack solves that problem.

In order to make the pack active, dirty clothes are placed inside the bag along with two or three liters of water. The bag is then shut tightly to ensure all air is squeezed out and the clothes are massaged for a few minutes. After a quick wash, they are clean and ready to be dried. According to Newland, the pack can clean anything from jeans to smelly socks! What’s even more amazing is that with a capacity to hold 13-liters of water, it can be used to wash more clothes at a time.

The best part is that the 99-dollar pack that will be available for sale later this year, only weighs 300 grams and is completely foldable, making it easy to store when it’s not in use. With the Scrubba Wash Pack, wandering through foreign cities searching for a washing shop, or paying for washing machines may soon be a thing of the past!

8. What led Ash Newland to create the Scrubba Wash Pack?( )

AHis job requirements

Ba traditional washboard

CHis interest in invention

DHis personal experience

9. Why wasn’t Ash Newland satisfied with his former invention?( )

AClothes couldn’t be washed well.

BThe invention was not so convenient.

CThe bag couldn’t contain enough water.

DThe cost of the invention was very high..

10. It can be inferred that the improved Wash Pack ( ).

Aturns to be much environmentally friendlier

Bwill replace the traditional washing machines

Cwill be widely used by more travelers in the future

Dcan encourage more people to travel a long distance

11. What is the purpose of this passage?( )

ATo introduce a great new invention.

BTo explain the development of backpack

CTo list some common problems for travelers

DTo compare two kinds of washing machines

(After successfully serving their term for four years, military service men and women are given the choice to stay in the military or return to civilian life.

For some, having to readjust to civilian life is one of the most challenging assignments our returning soldiers and marines(水兵) will ever have to undertake. While people may think that readjusting should be simple, they must take into consideration all the physical and mental stress our serviceman went through.

Post-traumatic Stress Disorder(创伤后应激障碍), or PTSD, is a mental disorder that can occur following the experience or witnessing of life-threatening events such as military combat.

Most survivors of trauma return to normal given a little time. In the military, the marines are given a two-week course on how to return to civilian life.

Unfortunately, some will have stress reactions that do not go away on their own, or may even get worse over time. These individuals may develop PTSD. People who suffer from PTSD have difficulty sleeping because they are often reliving the experience through nightmares and flashbacks, and feel deserted or often stand off, and these symptoms can be severe enough and last long enough to significantly damage the person’s daily life.

Fullerton College, like most college, has its own Veteran’s(老兵) Office. Ray Bustos has been running the office for 3 years. Bustos acts as a liaison(联络) for the school and the veteran students. He makes sure the veterans returning to school get the right benefits. There are various types of financial aid for soldiers and marines. He strongly encourages the use of the Veterans Affairs website. The website is very informative and extremely helpful for veterans as well as for friends and relatives of veterans who want to learn more.

The holiday season isn’t just about shopping and gifts. _ However, holiday travel can be more expensive than the gifts. Fortunately, the following tips will help keep your travel spending under control.

· Plan ahead. The earlier you book your travel, from airfare to hotels, the easier it is to find good deals. _ Your best prices on airfare come when you book three weeks before the plane leaves for domestic flights. For international flights, consider booking about 30 days in advance. Many experts point out that you should book travel between one month and three months out for high-traffic holidays.

· Book your air travel on cheaper days. Traveling by air on Tuesdays and Wednesdays often costs less than traveling on Fridays and Sundays. During the holidays, it’s not just about a specific day of the week. You also need to consider the days surrounding the holiday but days immediately before and after a holiday can be expensive. One of the best ways to save is to plan your air travel on the day of the holiday. _

· Consider traveling overnight. Red-eye flights and overnight flights often cost less than those at more convenient times. _ Traveling overnight can help you avoid a night in the hotel, as well as save your money on travel to your destination.

· _ You can’t bring liquids with you on the airline, but you can bring sandwiches and other snacks. When you’re on the road, you can buy food at local groceries to make your own meals. If you are staying in a hotel long-term, consider cooking your own food, especially if you have access to a microwave.

【语篇导读】本文是一篇应用文。作者介绍了在假期里如何应提前做好计划安排。

ABring your own food.

BConsider affordable accommodations.

CTraveling by plane is not the best choice.

DAlso, booking earlier can save your money.

EFor instance, traveling on Christmas Day might be a great deal.

FA great deal of travel also takes place during this time of year.

GOther alternatives include sleeper trains, as well as overnight ferries.
