Few students would dream of getting a job as a shoe shiner working along the street. College students, in their own eyes and in the eyes of the public, are expected to get at least a proper job, if not working in a high-income or white-collar position.
Cai Yong’s decision to work as a shoe shiner shocked not only his parents, who had high hopes for him, but also his girlfriend.
“It is right for young graduates to be ambitious (有抱负的). But they have to start in a solid

12 college students in all.
“I come for the 800 yuan monthly pay,” said Xiao Ji, who is a student from Nanjing University. “I have grown up and no longer live on my parents,” he said.
“Working as shoe shiners can mean a bright future,” Cai said.
Not everyone can accept this job choice. Cai’s girlfriend left him because she felt ashamed to be with a shoe shiner, and Cai accepted the fact. “This is the price to be paid for a job,” he said.
A former shoe shiner, Zhong Haibo, from a medical college, believes it was a good training for the rest of his life. “There is nothing I can’t do after working as a shoe shiner,” Zhong said, meaning that such kind of experience in early life is helpful in a future job.

Have you ever wondered why birds sing? Maybe you thought that they were just happy. After all, you probably sing or whistle when you are happy.
Some scientists believe that birds do sing some of the time just because they are happy. However, they sing most of the time for a very different reason .Their singing is actually a warning to other birds to stay out of their territory.
Do you know what a “territory” is? A territory is an area that an animal ,usually the male, claims as its own .Only he and his family are welcome there .No other families of the same species are welcome .Your yard and house are your territory where only your family and friends are welcome. If a stranger should enter your territory and threaten you, you might shout. Probably this would be enough to frighten him away.
If so, you have actually scared the stranger away without having to fight him .A bird does the same thing. But he expects an outsider almost any time ,especially at nesting season. So he is screaming all the time, whether he can see an outsider or not. This screaming is what we call a bird’s song, and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away.
Birds sing loudest in the spring when they are trying to attract a mate and warn others not to enter the territory of theirs.
You can see that birds have a language all their own. Most of it has to do with attracting mates and setting up territories.
49．Some scientists believe that most of the time birds’ singing is actually .
A．an expression of happiness B．a way of warning
C．an expression of anger D．a way of greeting
50.What is a bird’s “territory”?
A．A place where families of other species are not accepted.
B．A place where a bird may shout at the top of its voice.
C．An area for which birds fight against each other.
D．An area which a bird considers to be its own .
51．Why do birds keep on singing at nesting season?
A. Because they want to invite more friends. B.Because their singing helps frighten outsiders away.
C．Because they want to find outsiders around. D．Because their singing helps get rid of their fears.
52．How does the writer explain birds’ singing?
A．By comparing birds with human beings. B．By reporting experiment results.
C．By describing birds’ daily life. D．By telling a bird’s story.

Anyone who wants to buy a gun in California will have to wait for 2 weeks. Four people waited for 15 days to buy guns. Then they robbed a store and shot 3 people .
Congress (国会) is now trying to pass a law that will make everyone wait to buy a gun. Many people do not want this law. Others are glad it might happen. California has one of the longest waiting times for someone to buy a gun. A gun dealer（经销商） said that this waiting time does not seems to do much good．He has not seen crime (犯罪) go away because of it.
One good thing that has happened with the waiting time to buy a gun is a smaller number of suicide (自杀) . A lot of suicides are with a gun. In California, there are fewer suicides by gun than in other places. One reason to make people wait to buy a gun is to make sure the guns are not sold to criminals (罪犯). Last year, this check (阻止) stopped 2,400 guns from being sold to criminals. This check does not stop anyone else from buying a gun.
Many criminals buy guns on the street and not in a store… some people think that a law like this will not do any good．But other people think that if only one person is stopped from getting a gun, then this law is worth it.
53．A long waiting time to buy in California has led to ___.
A．a good gun control B．less suicides by gun
C．less shop robbery D．a sharp fall of gun sales
55．If congress passed the law, ____.
A．no one could kill himself B．there would be no gun deals
C．one would see more crimes go away D．criminals couldn’t easily get guns in a store
55．From the passage we can infer that ___.
A．California is the only state to have a waiting time to buy guns
B．Congress will surely fail to pass the law to have a waiting time to buy guns
C．Different states can have some different laws in the United States
D．No laws can cover all the states in the United States of America
