Fifty-five years ago Barbie Millicent Roberts first came out in the world of toys. Since then, Barbie doll, as everyone called her, has become the most famous toy doll in history. Her parent, the Mattel Company, said that 90% of all American girls between 3 and 10 have at least one Barbie at home.
However, Barbie is facing some trouble at present, There are many similar (相似的) dolls on the market in competition with her. Another doll named Bratz, for example, came to life fifteen years ago. She looks more like today’s pop stars with heavy makeup (浓妆) and miniskirts.

In January 2009, Mattel opened its first Barbie store in Shanghai, where girls can shop, eat, drink or even become fashion designers for their own Barbies.
Mattel is planning big celebrations for Barbie’s 55th birthday. Fashion designers from all over the world will make new dresses for Barbie. How long will Barbie stay popular in the world of toy dolls? It is hard to say, but 55 is surely not the age to retire (退休). Girls can do the following things in the first Barbie shop in Shanghai except (除了)________.
| A．shopping | B．having food |

Steven is in the ninth grade now. He likes doing projects at school. Two years ago，he made a digital programme for the traffic system. After getting the prize， he got the advice from his father： “Do what interests you， and make sure you put your heart into it.”
Steven always prefers the projects which connect to our real life! He still remembers the project he has done. First of all， he tried to divide the whole project into several small parts. He usually gave himself some basic ideas after thinking them over and over again. When he met with some problems that he couldn’t work out by himself， he used to go to the teachers’ office and ask his teachers for help. At the beginning of his research such a question “How do I do it?” often came to his mind. As he kept on studying and discussing with his teachers， those “how” questions soon turned into another type： “What if I do this and that way?”
It took Steven more than four days to write the code(编码) on his computer. The desire(愿望) to solve the problems made him not get to sleep all nights. When he found his project going well， he jumped with joy. The last day of his work got deeply impressed(印象) in his mind. He went into trouble and didn’t know what to do next. At the moment， he noticed a man with headphones dancing while he was cleaning the room. This encouraged him to work on his project. He made good success at last.
Now Steven feels very proud of his projects and tries to do more projects at school.Is Steven at school?

I came to study in the USA a year ago. Yet I did not know the real American society until I injured (伤害) in an accident, because after the accident I had to see a doctor --- and to court (法院).
After the accident, my roommate called a doctor for me. I was very grateful and decided to repay him one day. But the next day, he asked me to pay him $ 200 for what he had done. I was very surprised. He had good reason to charge me, he said. And if I wanted to collect money from the person who was responsible (负责) for my injury. I’d have to have a good lawyer (律师). And only a good doctor can help me get a good lawyer. Now that he had helped me find a good doctor, it was only fair that I should pay him.
But every time I went to see the doctor, I had to wait about 50 minutes. He would see two or three patients at the same time, and often stop treating one so as to see another, yet he charged me $ 115 each time. The final examination report consisted of ten lines, and it cost me $ 215.
My lawyer knew very well the other party was responsible for the accident, yet he hardly did anything. He simply waited to collect his money. He was so irresponsible that I decided not to ask for him again. And he made me pay him $ 770.
Now I had to act as my own lawyer. Because of my inexperience, I told the insurance company (保险公司)the date I was leaving America. Knowing that, they played for time, and I left without getting a cent.
My experiences taught me two things about America: firstly, in a country like America money is everything. It is more important than friendship or honor. Secondly, foreigners are still being unfairly treated. So when we talk about America, we should see both its good and bad sides. The writer’s roommate offered to help him because ______.

| B．he felt sorry for the writer |
| C．he knew the doctor was a very good one |
| D．he wanted the writer to have a good lawyer |
A good doctor is necessary for the writer to ______.
| A．be properly treated |
| B．talk with the person responsible for the accident |
| C．become healthy before he leaves America |
| D．finally get the responsible party to pay for his injury |
The word “charge” in this passage means “______”.
| A．be responsible | B．be careful |
| C．ask as a price | D．get an answer |
What can you get from the story?
A. Going to court is something very common in America.
