It was Monday. Mrs. Smith’s dog was hungry, but there was not any meat in the house.
Considering that there was no better way. Mrs. Smith took a piece of paper, and wrote the following words on it: “Give my dog half a pound of meat.” Then she gave the paper to her dog and said gently “Take this to the butcher (a person whose job is selling meat). And he’s going to give you your lunch today.”
Holding the piece of paper in its mouth, the dog ran to the butcher’s. It gave the paper to the butcher. The butcher read it carefully, recognized that it was really the lady’s handwriting and soon did it as he was asked to. The dog was very happy, and ate the meat up at once.
At noon, the dog came to the shop again. It gave the butcher a piece of paper again. After reading it, he gave it half a pound of meat once more.
The next day, the dog came again exactly at noon. And as usual, it brought a piece of paper in the mouth. This time, the butcher did not take a look at paper, and gave the dog its meat, for he had regarded the dog as one of his customers (people who buy something from a shop).
But, the dog came again at four o’clock. And the same thing happened once again. To the butcher’s more surprise, it came for the third time at six o’clock, and brought with it a third piece of paper. The butcher felt a bit puzzled. He said to himself, “This is a small dog. Why does Mrs. Smith give it so much meat to eat today?”

Some weeks later the case was heard and the man won it in the end. As he was leaving the court, he said to his lawyer, “My present to the judge was quite successful, wasn’t it? ”The lawyer was even more surprised when he heard this. He asked, “What?

Will it matter if you don't take your breakfast? Recently a test was given in the United States. Those tested included people of different ages, from 12 to 83. During the experiment, these people were given all kinds of breakfasts, and sometimes they got no breakfast at all. Special tests were set up to see how well their bodies worked when they had eaten a certain kind of breakfast. The results show that if a person eats a proper breakfast, he or she will work with better effect than if he or she has no breakfast. This fact appears to be especially true if a person works with his brains. If a student eats fruit, eggs, bread and milk before going to school, he will learn more quickly and listen with more attention to class.
Opposite to what many people believe, if you don't eat breakfast, you will not lose weight. This is because people become so hungry at noon that they eat too much for lunch, and end up gaining weight instead of losing. You will probably lose more weight if you reduce your other meals.
72. During the test, those who were tested were given ________.
A. no breakfast at all B. very rich breakfast
C. little food for breakfast D. different breakfast or none
73. The results of the test show that ________.
A. breakfast has great effect on work and studies
B. breakfast has little to do with a person s work
C. a person will work better if he has a simple breakfast
D. those working with brains should have much for breakfast
74. The passage mentions that many people believe that if you don't eat breakfast, you will _________.
A. lose weight B. not lose weight
C. be healthier D. gain a lot of weight
75. According to the passage, if a student does not eat breakfast, ___________.
A. he will fall ill B. he will fail to listen to his teacher
C. he will not make progress in his study D. his mind will work more slowly

I wasn't too fond of the lecture classes with 400 students in my general courses. So I dropped in my second term when I was considering whether or not to come back in the fall. I went on the Internet and came across a miracle. Then I joined the organization what now I did last four years. I worked on making road, building a house, serving as a teacher's assistant and working as a camp officer in several projects in South Carolina in Florida. It has been a great experience and I almost learn more than what I could have in college. Since I didn't really
want to go back to school and I wasn't really interested in my major anyway. I think it was better for me. After 1700 hours of service, I received 4750 dollars. I can use that to pay off the
money I borrowed from the bank. So what I need when I go back to school this fall at Kansas State in Ohio. Classes are smaller there and I will major in German education. After working with the kids, now I know I want to be a teacher.
