A mild-mannered cat by day,at night Rusty was just the opposite.Often,Bill and I would lie in bed quarreling over whether we should let it out to wander in the dark or put up with another sleepless night.
So,instead,we lay in the dark each noisy night and wondered what damage Rusty would do.And always in the morning,if I had forgotten to put the butter in the cupboard,there were marks from a rough,little tongue and once even a paw print.
   Something had to give.Bill looked at me straight in the eyes, " Do it." My reservations were such,however,that it took me several weeks and the loss of nearly a pound of butter to decide we didn't have much choice.
   That night,I put Rusty on his cat bed and patted him a little guiltily on the head.Then I began filling the kitchen sink with about two inches of water.Rusty loved jumping into a damp sink and then tracking water all over the cupboards and across the kitchen floor.According to the article I saved from a website to my folder,cats used to jumping into your sink,but they won't do it again if they jump in and find a couple of inches of water.
   Next,I cleared the cupboards of everything.Then I got out all my metal cookie sheets and a fork to go with each.According to the article,you should support a cookie sheet with a fork.When your cat jumps on the counter,he will knock down the insecurely balanced cookie sheets.What happens next will stop him from doing it a second time.
   Everything in place,I slipped onto our bed quietly,waiting.Suddenly,there came an awfully loud noise of metal.A chain reaction of crashes next.Finally,Rusty rounded the corner in the hall heavily and leaped through our doorway onto the foot of our bed,trembling under our cover.And that was the night Rusty,the Midnight Troublemaker,retired.

  • 1.At 1,345 meters above sea level,Ben Nevis is not the world's most difficult mountain to climb.But things get considerably tricky if instead of hiking shoes you put on a pair of 5-inch high heels,especially if you're a guy.One English teenager recently proved that it was not impossible.
       Ben Conway,a 19-year-old art student from London,recently took up the challenge as a way to stand out in an application for a scholarship for the School of Communication Arts in Brixton.He started his unusual high-heel climb at 8 am,on June 27,and was joined by Callum MacKenzie Allen,a friend from his art foundation year,who videotaped the whole thing for a two-minute video that was used as his application project.The whole climb took five hours and wasn't the smoothest experience.
       Halfway up Ben Nevis,one of his shoes broke,so he had to tape the shoes to his feet to make sure they stayed on.The weather didn't make it easy for him either,as he claimed that it rained pretty much the whole time,and he had to go against 40 to 50 miles an hour winds.Due to these difficult conditions,Ben and his friend had to turn back after reaching 900 meters up the mountain.
       Besides providing a unique art school application project,the high-heel climb also allowed the 19-year-old to raise some money for worthy causes (事業(yè)),like Sal's Shoes,which provides footwear for barefoot children around the world.
       "Raising money for charity brings happiness to people's lives and if I can do something ridiculous and bring someone happiness,then that's what it's all about," Ben said.

    (1)Which can replace the underlined word "tricky" in Paragraph 1?

    A.Pleasant.
    B.Boring.
    C.Difficult.
    D.Interesting.
    (2)Why did Allen videotape the high-heel climb for Ben?

    A.To prove nothing is impossible.
    B.To record a special experience.
    C.To develop their friendship.
    D.To assist in Ben's application.
    (3)What does Paragraph 3 focus on?

    A.The difficulties in the climb.
    B.The climbing way.
    C.The terrible weather.
    D.The unexpected things.
    (4)Which word can best describe Ben's story?

    A.Confusing.
    B.Inspiring.
    C.Exciting.
    D.Frightening.

  • 3.    My father really dislikes my stepfather,Mike,and is always calling him names,saying what a "good-for-nothing" guy he is.Mike knows about his name-calling because sometimes when my father comes to pick me up,he'll say inconsiderate things right in front of my stepfather like, "Is what's-his-name going to pick you up after the game,or am I supposed to bring you home?"
        Even though it's rude,my stepfather doesn't hold it against my father. "I'll pick up Shawn at 3:30," he'll answer. Nor does Mike make a big deal out of my father's inconsiderate attitude towards him. He lets the comments go.
        I ask my stepfather if the way my father treats him bothers or upsets him. "Oh,not really," he says. "You don't always have to be right,as long as you do what's right." My father's taunts(嘲笑) don't bother Mike because he likes himself.My dad's opinion doesn't change the way Mike feels about himself.
        I really admire Mike.He's so good to my mother.And what a good father he is to me!I appreciate all the things he does for me,like teaching me to throw a fastball and helping me with my homework without becoming impatient like my father does.Mike even volunteered at my school's carnival(狂歡節(jié)) this year.No other stepfathers were there.
        Though I would never tell my real father that I think my stepfather is one of the nicest guys I know,he is.I'm happy to make Mike my stepfather.Sometimes,I even call Mike "Dad" because he acts like a dad to me.In my eyes,my stepfather is a really great guy.

    B.Mike never runs a business with the writer's father.
    C.Mike doesn't express his anger on the writer's father.
    D.Mike ignores what the writer's father says and does.
