Mrs. John B Dodd, of Washington, first proposed the idea of a
“ father’s day” in 1909. Mrs. Dodd wanted a special day to honor her father William Smart, whose wife died while giving birth to their sixth child. Mr. Smart was left to raise the newborn and his other five children by himself on a rural farm in eastern Washington State. It was after Mrs. Dodd became an adult that she realized the strength and selflessness her father and shown in raising his children as a single parent.
The first Father’s Day was observed on June 19, 1910 in Washington. And it was in 1966 that President Lyndon Johnson officially declared the 3rd Sunday of June as Father’s Day.
Father’s Day has become a day to not only honor your father, but all men who act as a father figure. Stepfathers, uncles, grandfathers, and adult male friends are all honored on Father’s.

What do people do with their old, out of date but still useful computers? Most people don't know what to do with them. Many old computers are put away in homes. Many more are simply thrown away as the rubbish.
Finally, some companies are thinking of ways to bring down the number of old computers. Sony has agreed to help recycle old Sony products (产品). Dell, Hewlett Packard and other companies now also take back some old computers.
In some countries, laws have been passed, too. Computer companies have to pay for
3
collecting and recycling their used products. And 70% of computer waste must be recycled. The idea behind the laws is that computer companies themselves should pay for the cost. That will encourage them to make computers that are easier and cheaper to repair and upgrade (升级). Yet while many people are throwing away good computers, others cannot afford them at all. Hundreds of organizations are working to solve this problem. They collect and repair old computers. Some also teach others how to repair computers.
The computers then go to schools, charities and people who need them. Giving a used computer to one of these organizations can turn one person's rubbish into someone else's useful things and cut down waste, too.
( )34.What do many people do with old computers?
A. They repair them B. They sell them C. They send them to others D. They stop using them

School uniforms are becoming more and more popular across the U.S.A. That’s no surprise, because they offer many benefits. If all students are dressed in the same way, they will not pay too much attention to their clothing, and some of them will not be laughed at for wearing the “wrong” clothes.
Some people are against the strict rule of school uniforms, but they do not realize that students already accept a kind of rule — wanting to look just like their friends. The difference is that the clothing students choose for themselves creates social barriers(障碍); school uniforms break those barriers.
As in other places, uniforms remind the wearers of their purposes and duties. For example, when a man or woman puts on a police uniform, he or she becomes the symbol of law and order. The uniform means to the wearer his or her special duties and sends the same message to others. People with different jobs wear uniforms of one kind or another. For students, the school uniform reminds them that their task for the six or seven hours they are in school is to get an education.
Some parents are unhappy about uniforms, saying that school uniforms will affect their children’s “creativity.”(创造力) First, the clothes students choose to wear do not necessarily(必然地) express their individuality(个性). They just copy their classmates. Second, students have the rest of the day to be as creative as they like. While they’re in school, their job is to read or write; this should take up all the creativity they have. Having those skills will be good for the students to build up their creativity in every way.

( )38. In Paragraph 1, the word “benefits” probably means _________.
A. tasks B. messages C. differences D. advantages
( )39. From the passage we learn that uniforms in general ___________ .
A. prevent the wearers from being laughed at B. help the wearers keep their duties in mind C. are seen as a symbol of power D. help to create social barriers
( )40. Some people are against school uniforms because __________.
A. they fail to realize that students have accepted the uniforms B. they believe that uniforms will make students less creative C. they don’t agree that uniforms can remove social barriers D. they think that school uniforms are too popular
( )41. The writer would probably agree that ___________.
A. it makes no difference whether to wear school uniforms or not B. students’ individuality may not come from school education C. students’ creativity is decided by the clothes they choose
D. school uniforms help to create equality (平等) among students

“How did you know I had a visitor with me?” asked Watson in amazement. “I sometimes believe you have eyes in the back of your head!”
“I don’t, but I do have a very well polished silver coffeepot in front of me!” Holmes laughed. “And whom do I have the pleasure of greeting?” he asked.
“I am Dr. James Mortimer, Mr. Holmes. It concerns the death of my good friend and patient, Sir Charles Baskerville. Sir Charles Baskerville had no children, so his entire estate(财产) now pass to his nephew, Sir Henry Baskerville, who has been living in America for many years.” Dr. Mortimer took a letter out of his pocket which was given to him by Sir Charles just before his death 3 months ago. “ If I may, I should like to read the letter to you.” He adjusted his glasses.
“Baskerville Hall, 1742. To my sons, Rodger and John. The legend(传说,传奇) has been told by my father who was told by his father before him. It began 100 years ago in 1642 when this great Baskerville Hall was occupied(占有) by Hugo Baskerville ---a wild, ugly, cruel man. Hugo wanted to marry the daughter of a neighbouring farmer. One day, with his five evil friends, he rode to the farm and kidnapped the girl. He brought her to Baskerville Hall and locked her in an upstairs room while he and his friends having a drinking party below. The poor girl was very frightened, but she managed to climb out of the window. Hugo, however, soon noticed that she had gone. He chased the girl on his black horse with his hunting dog showing the way. His
friends joined the chase to until a strange sight stopped them cold. There lay two bodies--Hugo’s and the girl’s. Standing over Hugo’s body was a huge black beast(野兽) tearing out his throat(喉咙).
“I really don’t like fairy tales ”said Holmes. “What exactly is it you want me to do?”
“I need you to advise me what to do with Sir Henry Baskerville who’s arriving here today”. ( )42.How does Mr. Holmes know there’s a visitor?
A. Dr. Watson phoned an hour ago. B. He has eyes in the back of his head
