        Leon was a postman. Every day after Leon woke up, he would feed his 37 cats. Leon didn't really want 37 cats, but one by one they had turned up on his doorstep, and Leon had taken them in.

        Every day, after feeding the cats, Leon would collect the mail from the red postboxes in the village and take it home to sort(分类). “If only I had 37 helpers instead of 37 cats, my job would be so much easier,” Leon thought. Just then, the cats started meowing for their dinner. That gave Leon an idea. That night, Leon stayed up making 37 cat-sized postal backpacks. Each backpack fitted neatly onto a cat's back. Then, he went around to each postbox, putting signs up that read: Postbox closed. Please use the Postal Cat Service.

        The next day, Leon put a backpack on each cat and dropped off the cats around the village. Leon knew that the cats would be happy lazing around all day. He also knew that they would always come home for dinner. Leon spent the day relaxing, waiting for his helpers to return. Leon was right. The cats did return, but they did not bring home many letters. Somehow, the cats had managed to wriggle(蜿蜒而行) out of their backpacks. Or lose their letters. Or get the letters wet. “Cats are just too unreliable(不可靠的)” Leon thought. Just then, there was a scratching(刮擦声) at Leon's door. A dog was waiting to be invited inside. That gave Leon an idea.

    1. (1) Why did Leon keep 37 cats?
      A . Because his favourite animal was cat. B . Because he wanted the cats to help him. C . Because the cats came to his home one by one, and he had to keep them. D . Because the cat he kept were reliable.

        Years ago, I lived in a building in a large city. The building next door was only a few feet away from mine. There was a woman who lived there, whom I had never met, yet I could often see her sit by her window, sewing or reading.

        After several months, I began to notice that her window was dirty. Everything was unclear through the dirty window. I would say to myself, “I wonder why that woman doesn't clean her window. It really looks terrible.”

        One bright morning I decided to clean my flat, including the windows.

        Late in the afternoon when I finished the cleaning, I sat down by the window with a cup of coffee for a rest. What a surprise! The woman sitting by her window was clearly visible. Her window was clean!

        Then it dawned on me. I had been criticizing (批评) her dirty window, but all the time I was watching hers through my own dirty window.

        That was quite an important lesson for me. How often had I looked at and criticized others through the dirty window of my heart, through my own shortcomings?

        Since then, whenever I wanted to judge (评判) someone, I asked myself first, “Am I looking at him through my own dirty window?”

        Then I try to clean the window of my own world so that I may see the world about me more clearly.

    1. (1) The writer tells us that the woman ________.
      A . lived in a large city next to the city where the writer lived B . was her friend for a long time C . always had afternoon tea with her D . often sewed and read
    2. (2) Several months later, the writer noticed that ________.
      A . the woman moved away B . the woman wasn't good at cleaning her window C . the woman's window was dirty D . everything in the woman's room looked terrible

      A . The writer's building was far away from the woman's. B . The writer discovered the truth after cleaning her own window. C . The writer realized at last, and he would learn a lesson from it. D . The writer decided not to judge others since then.

        What is the number one favourite pet in the UK? If you think the answer is “dog” – you are wrong. There are 8.6 million cats and 8.3 million dogs in Britain according to recent figures. But experts predict (预测) that there will be more dogs than cats next year as dogs become more and more popular.

        Dogs as accessories (配饰)

        We like to spend time with our pets. The Queen is famous for her corgis (威尔士矮脚狗) and is often photographed with them. Nowadays some dog owners are more extreme(极端的) – a few TV celebrities even take their dogs shopping or to restaurants. Chihuahuas (吉娃娃犬) are especially popular as “handbag dogs” because they are so small.

        Dog holidays

        People are also giving their pets holidays. Many UK hotels and holiday parks now welcome dogs as guests. What about owners who go abroad? They can leave their pets at a dog hotel or dog spa while they are away. Some even provide their canine (犬) guests with a TV.

        Dogs are for life

        The British charity, Dogs Trust, finds homes for thousands of lost and homeless dogs every year. Their famous slogan(口号) “A dog is for life and not just for Christmas” was created in the 1970s to teach people about the responsibility(责任) of owning a dog. Dogs Trust told British people not to give dogs as gifts or treat them like toys.

        Dogs on TV

        Victoria Sitwell is the host(主持人) of the popular TV programme called “It's me or the dog”. In the show Victoria helps dog owners with their pets' bad behavior. She tries to find ways to problems such as a Dalmatian who thinks he owns the house and won't let the family sit on the sofa, dogs that will only eat ice cream and biscuits and even a bulldog(恶犬) who uses the owner's bed as a toilet. Yuck!

        Fashion for dogs

        You can shop online or on the high street for the latest in dog clothes and accessories(配件). Specialist shops sell dog boots, dog dress costumes, dog coats, dog dresses and dog pants.

    1. (1) What does the article mainly talk about?
      A . Cats as number one favorite pet in the UK. B . A culture of dogs as a pet in the UK. C . Small dogs like Chihuahuas becoming more and more popular. D . Dogs equally treated as human beings.

        Every kid wishes to be an adult. Do you remember playing house as a child — pretending(假装) to be a grown-up like your parents? Did you imagine you were a doctor, a soldier or a teacher? At that time, anything seemed more exciting than being young.

        But now as grown-ups, some adults find they cannot leave childhood behind. They become “kidults”. Being a kidult has become a lifestyle choice among young people across Asia.

        Some kidults collect toys they once played with. Hello Kitty, Garfield, and Snoopy have many adult fans around the world. It is not unusual to see a 20-something woman with a big, Garfield-shaped cushion on her sofa or a Hello Kitty mobile phone accessory(配件、附件).

        Other kidults still enjoy children's stories and fairy tales. For example, the British publisher Bloomsbury even released an edition(发布一个版本) of the Harry Potter novels with an adult cover. That way, no one else on the subway will know that an adult is actually reading a children's book.

        “Kidults can be like vitamins to society. Adults who love their childhood most and hold on to pure, child-like emotion may be needed in such a rough and dry society,” said Lee So-jung, a professor at Hankuk University of Foreign Studies.

        He added that kidult culture may fill the generation gap between adults and kids. It could give children and their parents books, movies, and cartoon shows to enjoy together.

        Tim Greenhalgh, an adviser in London explained that some kidults just refuse to grow up. They hold on to childhood because working life in a busy and stressful city frightens them. Kidults would like to forget their age and openly show their fear of society and adulthood.

        “So, they can escape from increasingly busy and stressful lives that are hard to deal with,” Greenhalgh said.

    1. (1) Why does a kid wish to be an adult?
      A . Because he wants to be independent(独立). B . Because he doesn't want to be controlled by adults. C . Because he wants to experience the real world. D . Because he believes there will be more exciting life ahead.
    2. (2) What can we infer(推断) from the passage?
      A . Some kidults refuse to grow up. B . Some kidults in Britain like reading on the subway. C . Some kidults  think childhood is the best time of their life. D . Some kidults want to escape from the busy and stressful life
    3. (3) One of the advantages of the kidult culture is that ______.
      A . it can make adults face the real social life B . it can make our society young and full of life C . it can increase the sales of children's books D . it can lead to harmonious(和谐的) relationship between adults and kids
    4. (4) Which of the following is the best title for the article?
      A . Kids or Grown-ups B . Happy Childhood C . Fearful Adulthood D . Kidult Culture

        Police arrested a 19-year-old teenager yesterday who was involved in a ‘4-cats-killed' case in Hong Kong. The case drew the public's attention towards animal rights. Still, many people in Hong Kong would like to own a pet dog without giving serious thought to the consequences(后果).

        We are concerned(关注) that some owners will drive away the pets once they have become useless. Homeless dogs and cats run here and there in the parks and streets. Many owners send their pets away for three reasons. Firstly, they have got diseases. Secondly, they are noisy and annoying(烦人). Thirdly, they have broken the vase bought by a boyfriend. Because of these silly reasons, many pets lose their homes . More pets will be saved if we think twice before buying them.

        We must pay attention to pets' health. To have them injected(注射) with different types of vaccines(疫苗) at the correct age is necessary. You should always keep an eye on your pet. If they behave strangely, take them to an animal hospital at once. It's dangerous for dogs to eat chocolate. Never leave your pets at home alone for a long time. Pets will show better behavior once they have developed good habits. Owners can take them to some training courses or teach them patiently at home.

        Animal experts say that Hong Kong is not an ideal place for keeping pets at home. Hong Kong people are too busy and the flat spaces are limited. Above all, animals are an important part of nature. They should not be locked in cages. So, if you do not have the time and ability to keep them well, do not take them home. Please think twice before you pay.

    1. (1) What happened to the 19-year-old teenager mentioned in the passage?

    2. (2) What does the writer advise us to do before we buy a pet?

    3. (3) Will you send your pet away if you own one? Why?
