Naiman died of cancer at age 63 last January. The man from the American state of Washington gave most of his money to groups that help the poor, sick, disabled and abandoned children.

He gave them $11 million. The large amount of his fortune shocked the groups that received his gifts and even his best friends. That is because Naiman had been known to repair his own shoes with duct tape. He had sought deals to buy food from grocery stores at closing time and taken friends out to lunch at low cost restaurants.

Naiman died unmarried and childless. He loved children but also was intensely private. He saved, invested and worked extra jobs to gather money. He rarely spent the money on himself after seeing how unfair life could be for children who suffer most.

Naiman was a former banker who worked for the past 20 years at the state Department of Social and Health Services. He earned $67,234 a year and also took on side jobs. Sometimes, he worked as many as three at a time. He saved and invested enough to make several millions of dollars. He also received millions more from his parents after they died.

He left $2.5 million to the Pediatric Interim Care Center in Washington. The center is a private organization that cares for babies born to mothers who abused drugs and children with drug dependency. The center used the money to pay off its mortgage (按揭) and buy a new vehicle to transport the children.

Naiman gave $900, 000 to the Treehouse, where children without parents can choose toys and necessities for free. Treehouse is using Naiman’s money to expand its college and career support services Statewide.

My friend Lucy gave me a ticket for an excited film which I want to see it very much. However, I will have to take an examination tomorrow. I believe that only when you do that you should do can you make progresses in life. In my opinion, it is waste of time going to see the film right now. That’s why I decided to give up seeing the film with him and working hard at my lessons. Lucy felt this a great pity that I couldn’t see the film with her. To make her happily, I said, “Why not going to see the film the day after tomorrow instead of today?”

Spielberg’s The BFG tells the tale of an unlikely friendship brought to life in an imaginary world. However, many people say the story is a bit too kid-friendly. Optimism is Spielberg’s typical tone, but the final victorious battle against the bad guys seems a little bit too easy. And when the BFG fights for the first time against the giants who have been hurting him, it seems confusing how he successfully drives away bad guys who are almost twice his size.

Spielberg does leave a little for adult viewers to digest. The BFG doesn’t want to be seen as a monster by humans，but in the end his own kind ends up caught and locked up in isolation. Will he also be destined (注定) to spend the rest of his days in a remote place alone?

Despite being made for a younger audience, the film is still worth a watch. It doesn’t have gun-fights, death, explosions and the stuff that people seem to be interested in nowadays. But the film takes us back to a more innocent time.

【1】Why is Sophie taken to Giant Country?

A. Because she leaks BFG’s secret.

B. Because she happens to see BFG running on the streets.

C. Because she lives a miserable life as an abandoned child.

D. Because she is thought to be likely to tell BFG’s secret to others.

【2】What does the underlined phrase ^drives away” in Paragraph 2 mean?

A. Sends away. B. Breaks away from.

C. Frightens away. D. Keeps away from.

【3】What can be inferred from the text?

A. The BFG likes nothing but eating humans.

B. Not every viewer thinks highly of this film.

C. The other giants end up captured and isolated in the film.

D. This film mainly tells the practical friendship between Sophie and the BFG

【4】What type of writing is the text?

A. A movie review.

B. An advertisement.

C. An announcement.

D. A fiction.

Your IQ, which stands for Intelligence Quotient, is a scientific assessment(評(píng)估)of your intelligence. While there are limits based on native intelligence levels, recent studies have shown that it’s possible to increase your intelligence. Your brain needs exercise just like a muscle. If you use it often and in the right ways, you will become a more skilled thinker and increase your ability to focus. Here are five simple techniques to exercise your brain.

1. Minimize(使減少到最低程度)television watching. 【1】When you feel like relaxing, try reading a book instead. If you’re too tired, listen to some music. When you’re with your friends or family, turn your television off and have a conversation.

2. 【2】Time spent exercising always leads to greater learning because it improves productivity during the time afterwards. Using your body clears your head and creates a wave of energy.

3. Read Challenging Books. If you want to improve your thinking and writing ability, you should read books that make you focus. 【3】Besides, it will make you think in more precise, elegant English.

4.【4】Nothing makes it harder to concentrate than lack of sleep. You’ll be most rejuvenated(恢復(fù)活力的)if you go to bed early and don’t sleep more than 8 hours.

5. Take time to reflect. Spending some time alone in reflection gives you a chance to organize your thoughts and prioritize(優(yōu)先處理)your responsibilities. 【5】.

A. Early to Bed, Early to Rise.

B. Take some time to exercise

C. Think of new ways to do old things

D. Reading a classic novel can change your view of the world

E. Watching television doesn’t use your mental ability or allow it to recharge

F. Afterwards, you’ll have a better understanding of what’s important and what isn’t.

G. Just as sitting at your desk all day is bad for your physical self, sitting in the same mental seat all the time is bad for your bran.
