I think every child needs parents’ love and care.

I like traveling and I have traveled a lot around China. During the trip, I often find that a number of Chinese often break the rules in public.

Can you believe it? Let’s improve our public manners.

A Nobel Prize(諾貝爾獎(jiǎng)) is considered by most people one of the highest international honors a person can receive. As you know, the prizes were started by a Swede(瑞典人) called Alfred Nobel. He was born in Stockholm, the capital of Sweden. Alfred Nobel was a great scientist. He made two important inventions, and so he became very rich. Although he was rich, Nobel was not a happy man. He never married or had children. Also, he was a sick man during his large part of life. When he died at the age of 63, he left a fund(資金) of $9,000,000. The money was to be used in giving prizes to those who made great achievements in physics, chemistry, medicine and literature(文學(xué)), and for world peace.

Often a prize is given to just one person, but not always. Sometimes a prize is shared. It may be given to two or more people who have worked together. It is also sometimes true that a prize is not given at all if there is no great achievement. In 1972, for example, no Nobel Peace Prize was given.

More than 50 music students of New Milford High School in New Jersey, US, got a letter from their headmaster. The letter said that the music department of the school was in big trouble. The students had to pass a test, or the department(系) would be shut down.
On a Saturday, two officials greeted the nervous students. They asked the students to play a piece by Richard Strauss. But they had to sing the words to the music – German words!
Other tasks were also difficult. One student had to sing Mary had a Little Lamb, a children’s song, in an operatic (歌劇的) voice.
After three hours of testing, students waited for the results. They met some students from the New Jersey Youth Orchestra (管弦樂團(tuán)). The judges(裁判員) gave them only a passing grade.
The worried New Milford students started to realize they had no chance. “I thought it was over,” said Bryan Olsen-Santana, a junior. “The person next to me was crying. I felt bad for her. I felt bad for myself, too, because music is everything to me.”
But then the headmaster came and told them something very dramatic (戲劇性的): “Someone’s played a joke on you!”
What was going on?
The test was part of a reality TV show (電視真人秀) called “Schooled”. The students’ parents, the school and a TV network had made it together.
Everything was fake. The two “officials” were really comedians (喜劇演員). The “students from New Jersey Youth Orchestra” were from another school. There were hidden cameras. The students’ parents were hiding as they watched.
As a reward for putting up with the joke, the students got gifts: MP3 players, digital cameras and school supplies. They were all from the show’s sponsor (贊助商).
【小題1】What is the letter about?

A.The headmaster would come back next term.
B.The school didn’t have money to run.
C.The music department was in big trouble.
D.The students had to give up music.
【小題2】The students were nervous before the test, because _____.
A.they were not good at music
B.the judges were very strict
C.they thought they couldn’t pass
D.it would decide the future of the music department
【小題3】According to Olsen-Santana, we learn that _____.
A.their school failed the test
B.he likes music very much
C.the test was just a joke
D.the girl next to him was sorry for herself
【小題4】What does the underlined word “fake” mean in the passage?
A.順利的 B.假扮的
C.受歡迎的 D.便捷的
【小題5】The students didn’t get _____ as gifts.
A.moneyB.MP3 players
C.digital camerasD.school supplies
