24、No charge for love
A farmer had some puppies to sell. He nailed (用钉子) a sign above his door. As he was driving the last nail into the door, he felt a gentle pull at his left trouser leg. He looked down into the eyes of a little boy.
“Sit,” the boy said. “I want to buy one of your puppies.”
“Well,” said the farmer, “these puppies come from fine parents and cost a great deal of money.”
The boy dropped his head for a moment. Then he pulled out a handful of coins from his pocket and said, “I’ve got thirty-nine cents. Is that enough to take a look?”
The farmer smiled and whistled. Out of the doghouse came Little Dolly, who ran down the ramp (坡道) followed by four other little balls of fur. One puppy was lagging very much behind the others. “I want that one,” the little boy said, pointing at the limping (瘸着腿走) puppy.
The farmer knelt down beside the boy and said, “No, you don’t want that puppy. He will never be able to run or play with you like the other puppies.” To his surprise, the little boy reached down and rolled up his right trouser leg to show a metal brace (支架). Looking up at the farmer, he said, “You see, sir, I don’t run so well myself, and the little puppy will need someone who understands.”
With tears in his eyes, the farmer picked up the little puppy and handed it to the little boy.
“How much do I have to pay?” asked the boy.
“Just take it,” answered the farmer. “There’s no charge for love.”

25、“Colour” and “color”, “favourite” and “favorite”, “honour” and “honor”…Have you ever wondered why Americans spell those words without a “u”? Is it because they are lazy?
Of course not. In fact, the difference in spelling was started by Noah Webster(1758-1843). He was a teacher who reformed(改革)English to make American identity(特征)stronger. Linguists(语言学家)celebrate his birthday on October 16 every year.
After the Revolutionary War(1775-1783), Webster believed that Americans should have their own dictionary, rather than rely on British dictionaries.
He dropped the British “u” in some words. And he changed “centre” into “center” for children to learn English by spelling words more like what they sounded. He used “subway” instead of British word “underground”. Some other examples are “soccer” and “football”, “fall” and “autumn”.
Webster wasn’t shy about expressing his opinions. In defining(定义)preposterous (unreasonable), he wrote: “A republican government in the hands of female is preposterous.”
Webster spent 28 years on the project before completing the 70, 000-word dictionary with his American-style spelling in 1828. He also added local words.
His dictionary was widely used in schools. Linguists believed it helped a new country achieve unity(统一)and cultural independence at a time when most people cared about political freedom.
“He was the creator of our language and the creator of American identity,” said Joshua Kendall, who is working on a book about Webster. “He at last brought us together through our language.”
【1】Why do Americans spell some words without a “u”?

C.Because the American government reformed the spelling of words.
D.Because a linguist named Noah Webster started the reform in spelling.
【2】Which is NOT true about Webster’s dictionary?
A.It has local words in it.
B.It is a 70,000-word dictionary.
C.All the words are spelled without “u”.
D.Its words are in American-style spelling.
【3】What does the underlined phrase “rely on” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A.依赖
B.信任
C.容忍
D.放弃
【4】What do people think of Webster’s dictionary?
A.It is the only dictionary that Americans still use today.
B.It helped to bring Americans together besides its cultural influence.
C.It has no influence on the development of American English.
D.It helped to make American English more useful than British English.
【5】What’s the main idea of the passage?
A.The development of the British English.
B.American English is better than British English.

27、Celebrities(名人) are everywhere nowadays: on TV, in magazines, online. People think and talk about them a lot. Is this harmless fun or is it bad for us? How many people are truly crazy about modern idols(偶像)? And on the other side of the coin, is being famous harmful to the celebrities?
Studies suggest that most of the teenagers do not really idolize celebrities. Researchers have found three kinds of fans.
About 15% of young people have a social interest. They love chatting about their favorite celebrities with friends and this does not appear to do any harm.
Another 5% feel that they have a strong-personal relationship with a celebrity. Sometimes they see them as their soul-mates(心灵伴侣) and find that they are often thinking about them, even when they don't want to. These people are easy to feel depressed. If girls in this group idolize a woman star with a body they consider to be perfect, they are more likely to be unhappy with their own bodies.
That leaves 2% of young people with an unreasonable interest. They might spend several thousand pounds on a paper plate the celebrity had used, or they would do something lawbreaking. These people are in most danger of being seriously upset.
What about the celebrities themselves? Some researchers in the USA did a study to find out the effect of being famous on these people. The study showed celebrities showed off too much and they were very narcissistic(自恋的). The researchers looked at 200 celebrities, 200 young adults with MBAs (Masters in Business Administration), who were a group known for being narcissistic, and some general population. As the researchers expected, the celebrities were much more narcissistic than the MBAs and both of these two groups were a lot more narcissistic than the general population.
Four kinds of celebrities were included in the study. The most narcissistic were the ones who had become famous through reality TV shows. Next came comedians(喜剧演员) and then actors.
The least narcissistic were musicians. One interesting result was that there was no connection between narcissism and the length of time the celebrity had been famous.
So, what can we learn from this? Most people who are very successful or famous are usually self-centered and are likely to act only for their own benefits. As we can see from celebrity magazines, they also often feel lonely and even hopeless. They make harmful role models.
【1】The underlined word "depressed" in Paragraph 3 probably means .
A. sad B. afraid C. pleased D. hopeful
【2】 According to Paragraph 5, who are the most narcissistic?
A. Celebrities.
B. The general population.
C. Young adults with MBAs.
D. Teenagers who admire celebrities.
【3】What can we learn from the passage?
A. Most fans of celebrities want to become famous.
B. Talking about celebrities does harm to teenagers.
C. Narcissism increases with the length of time of being famous.
D. Only a very small group of teenagers are crazy about celebrities.
【4】What's the purpose of this passage?
A. To make us understand celebrities better.
B. To direct teenagers to become celebrities.
C. To compare different people with celebrities.
D. To discourage teenagers from taking celebrities as idols.
