together to complete the promise. Sometimes, couples will hook pinkies and promise to be together forever.

There are many theories (推测) on the beginning of the pinkie promise. Some say it comes from a nursery rhyme. Others say it was introduced from the West – born out of a love story where a man and a woman hooked fingers.

One theory is may have something to do with the role of fingers in Chinese culture. The Chinese character for “finger” also means “aim (旨)” (referring to people’s thoughts). So hooking fingers can be seen as the exchanging of thoughts.

Therefore, the fingers play an important role in making an oath (盟约): they can not only be used to complete a promise, but also be cut for making a blood oath. When someone swears (发誓) to heaven, they use their fingers to point to the sky.

Generally, hooking fingers means making a serious promise. In some gangster (黑帮) movies, a person who breaks a promise may have his little finger cut off!

Of course, this kind of thing is not very likely to happen in real life. But we can still see how important “pinkie promises” can be. 61. The passage mainly tells us ______.

A. where “hooking pinkies” first came from B. there are many theories on “hooking pinkies” C. a “pinkie promise” is important in real life D. what happens in some gangster movies 62.It is clear that ______.

A. only kids like to make pinkie promises B. “hooking pinkies” is happening very widely C. all pinkie promises are kept for 100 years D. a blood oath is the most serious kind 63.Children in China may finish “hooking pinkie” by ______.

A. pointing to the sky B. saying words to each other C. pressing their thumbs together D. seeing a gangster movie 64.In the writer’s opinion, “hooking fingers” means ______.

A. being together forever B. making a blood oath C. making a serious promise D. swearing to heaven 65.The best title for the passage is ______.

A. Don’t make a “pinkie promise” B. Don’t break a “pinkie promise” C. “Pinkie promise” is popular D.“Pinkie promise” is dangerous

C

I read a lot of newspapers for my job, but the one I liked best is called The Family News. Its editor is Heather Cook of Lisle, Illinois. She is only 12 years old. Heather thinks all her relatives should keep up with what everyone else in the family is doing. So every few months, she prepares The Family News and after her mother has made 50 copies, Heather mails them out. They are

received by 73 people in 9 states, who range in age from 4 to 94. Because of the paper, Heather’s family is joined together in a way that most families are not.

The reason I like The Family News so much is its happy stories. Most other papers depressed me with stories about cruelty of mankind. But The Family News never fails to bring a smile to my face. Here are a few of its items:

·”Keven is in first place in his conference in golf. He is glad!”

·”Math got his second tooth. He crawls around the floor to get where he wants to go.” 精品文档

·”Grandma, Heather and Keven cleaned up the yard and burned the leaves in the back yard. It smoked so much that there was smoke all the way up the street.”

·”Steve got a new car. It is dark blue.”

“Heather started putting out The Family News when she was seven.” said her mother, Jeanne. “I didn’t expect it to last. But obviously it means a lot to her, and to everyone in our family. It is a kind of collection. My brother-in-law Tom gave money to buy stamps to send it out. And my uncle Frank, who never wrote to everyone, sent Heather a letter asking her to keep the paper going because it was the most important news he got.”

Heather doesn’t look on her job as a hard work. “It’s fun,” she says. “Whenever I can, I call people up to see what’s new. Then o put it in the next issue. The best thing is hearing how much it means to my family. I plan on doing this until I get really old – at least 18!” 66. Heather’s relatives like The Family News because ______.

A. the paper can make a lot of money B. the family members can read good news C. the whole family is joined together D. other families keep up with the paper 67.The word “depress” in the passage means ______.

A. drive sb mad B. make sb sad C. leave sb alone D. keep sb quiet 68.We can know from the passage that ______.

A. Heather started her paper at the age of 12 B. only small kids like to read her stories C. Heather had fun in putting out the paper D. Uncle Frank gave money to buy stamps 69.Heather gets the stories for her newspaper by ______.

A. asking her mother to help B. collecting something new and funny C. mailing her papers to other people D. hearing what other family members say 70.According to the writer, ______.

A. Heather’s very successful at such a young age

B. The Family News offers the happy stories to the readers C. Mother’s help has led to Heather’s success

D. the government should do something about other newspaper
