2．A 47-year-old Frenchman had an unfortunate experience while walking around Cannes.Here he is to tell us all about it.
The Black Hole
I work in the philosophy department at the university.Just last week，I had some drinks with some friends in a bar.After a few glasses of wine，but not too many，mind you，I felt.It was about six in the evening，and it was starting to get dark.It had been raining heavily the past few days，but that night it was pleasant so I decided to walk home.However，I'd just turned the corner into my street when all of a sudden， "whoosh"，I fell down an uncovered manhole.
Flying
It was an incredible experience.It was as if I was flying through the air.I could feel the cold，wet sides of the drain.Eventually my back was rubbing along the side，until "splash"，I fell into a pool of running water.
A Water Ride
Now I was moving quite fast.The current was very strong — I guess it was because of all the heavy rain that had flooded the drain.Luckily the water wasn't very deep so I could keep my head above water.There was nothing I could do，so I lay back，with my hands behind my head，as if I was on slide in a water park，and just let myself go.It was quite pleasant really，except for the occasional mouthful of sickening water，and a horrible smell.When was it going to end？I was about to find out.
The End of the Ordeal
All of a sudden，I could see a light at the end of the tunnel.It started off quite small，but then it got bigger and bigger.A few seconds later I was shot up violently out of the drain，and onto the beach，right below the luxurious Majestic Hotel.I lay there for a few second，shaken，but unharmed.Then I picked myself up，walked up to the hotel and told them what had happened.Of course，at first it was hard to convince them that this dirty，wet middle-aged man with a horrible smell on him was in fact a dignified university professor.Anyway，they eventually believed me and allowed me to clean myself in one of the rooms.
Recovery
Miraculously，I was uninjured after my 30-minutes ride.I am currently in the process of charging the local council with failing to warn the public about the unmarked manhole.
Meanwhile，the town mayor has blamed "unusually strong rain fall" for the situation.
（1）Why did the man fall into to manhole？
A．He was walking too fast.
B．He had drunk too much wine.
C．The manhole was uncovered.
D．The heavy rain blocked his vision.
（2）The underlined word "ordeal" probably means.
A．suffering
B．spinning
C．overflow
D．offence
（3）What can be learned about the man？
A．He blamed his misfortune on the unusually heavy rain.
B．He was lucky enough to get spotted by a hotel employee.
C．He had to swim against the strong current to survive.
D．He is engaged in a legal case against the local authorities.
（4）Which of the following is the best title for the article？
A．A Frenchman's Night Encounter
B．A Ride down the Drain
C．Watch out for Hidden Dangers
D．Defend One's Dignity in Tough Situations组卷：1引用：1难度：0.5 -
3．Cigarettes aren't just harmful when they're being smoked.Even when cigarette ends go out and are cold，new research has found they continue to give off harmful chemicals in the air.In the first 24 hours alone，scientists say a used cigarette end will produce 14 percent of the nicotine （尼古丁） that an actively burning cigarette would produce.
While most of these chemicals are released within a day of being put out，an analysis for the United States Food and Drug Administration （FDA） found the level of nicotine fell by just 50% five days later.
"I was absolutely surprised， " since environmental engineer Dustin Poppendieck from the United States National Institute of Standards and Technology （NIST）. "The numbers are significant and could have important impacts when cigarette ends are dealt with indoors or in cars.While much attention has been paid to the health influence of first hand，second hand and now third hand smoking，it is not the case when it comes to the actual cigarette end of the matter. "
To measure emissions （排放） from this forgotten thing，Poppendieck and his team placed 2，100 cigarettes that were recently put out inside a special room.Once the ends were sealed away，the team measured eight chemicals commonly produced by cigarettes，four of which the FDA have their eye on for being harmful or potentially so.
After setting the room's temperature，the researchers tested how emissions changed under certain conditions.When the air temperature of the room was higher，for instance，they noticed the ends produced these chemicals at higher rates.This finding might discourage those who want to leave ashtrays （烟灰缸） out for days at a time，especially in the heat.
（1）What do the researchers say about cigarette ends？
A．They contain little nicotine.
B．They produce no nicotine five days later.
C．They give off nicotine for days.
D．They create as much nicotine as burning cigarettes.
（2）What do Poppendieck's words suggest？
A．First-hand smoking does most harm.
B．The findings are within his expectation.
C．Cigarettes should be dealt with indoors.
D．Health influence of cigarette ends is ignored.
（3）Which word best describes the author's attitude to not cleaning ashtrays for days？
A．Unclear.
B．Disapproving.
C．Unconcerned.
D．Puzzled.
（4）What can we learn from the text？
A．Used cigarette ends release harmful chemicals
B．Cigarettes are less harmful while being smoked
C．People pay more attention to the health influence of the used cigarette ends.
D．Cigarette ends produce less chemicals in the heat组卷：2引用：3难度：0.5

When I was young，I lived in a small village in Melaka.The spirit of neighborliness was very strong then.
The village had a variety of trades to serve the needs of the villagers.There was a barber，tailor，coffee shop owner，grocer，and so on.All of us were quite poor but we got by.However，one family which could be considered as living a marginal existence was the Lim family living in the bicycle shop opposite our dwelling.
Mr.Lim，the bicycle mechanic，had a large brood of children — twelve to be exact.My mother was a kind-hearted soul.Often，she would remark that his children were dressed in ragged clothes and looked malnourished （营养不良的）.My family was relatively better off in the village.My parents would bring over whatever food we could spare to the Lim family.
I remember one particular year when times were very hard.Even my family had to make do with two meals a day.We stopped the practice of giving food to Mr.Lim.One day，I noticed my mother looking troubled.She had learned that the Lim family had not been eating for the past two days.She decided to sacrifice a portion of our meals to the family despite the protests （抗议） from my brothers that were too hungry.Fortunately，the lean spell （困难时期） did not last long，and the children in our family resumed our three meals a day again.
As time went on，the number of customers at Lim's shop had increased rapidly.Business at his shop took off like a rocket as Japanese bikes were very useful and popular for transport.They were much better off than before.
It was at this time that my father's health was worsening.We were confused by the mysterious illness he was suffering from.Because of lack of attention to his provision shop （食品店），the business became worse.My father then sold our family car to pay off the mounting bills.My brothers and I had to stop schooling because we could not afford the fees.
