Mr. Jones opened a shop in Aston to sell writing-paper, pencils and things like that. During the first month, very few people visited his shop. He sold little, and he could see that he was going to lose money.
One night, Mr. Jones sat by the fire and was worried after another very bad day. Suddenly he got an idea. He found a piece of wood and wrote to the following notice on it in big letters:
“WHAT DO YOU THINK I GIVE AWAY PENCILS AND PAPER AND INK”
He put up the notice in front of the shop window before he went to bed. He slept better than usual that night.
The following day, many people came to the shop. Mr. Jones said good morning to them all with a bright smile and asked the first woman what she wanted.
She chose some writing paper and a pencil. As soon as he put them on her hands, she turned to leave the shop.
“That will be thirty cents(美分），please,” he said.
“Why?” she asked in surprise.
“That’s the price of the paper and the pencil.”
“But your notice says it’s free,” she answered.
“Oh no,” he said, “how can I make any money if everything is free?”
She took him outside and showed him the notice “It is wrong, too,” she said. “Where is the question mark after the world ‘think’?”
“There isn’t a question mark,” he said.
“But there should be one.”
“I’m afraid you’ve made a mistake,” Mr. Jones said. “You’ve read my notice in the wrong way.”
“Not at all,” said the woman. “It is quite easy to read. It says: What do you think? I give away pencils and paper and ink!”
“No,” Mr. Jones said. “You should read it like this: ______________.And the answer to the question is: Certainly not! So you really have to pay me thirty cents, you see.”
49. How did Mr. Jones most probably（可能） feel that night?
A. Confident(自信的). B. Unhappy. C. Terrible. D. Worried.
50. Which of the following sentences is the best for the blank in the last paragraph?
A. What do you think? I give away pencils and paper and ink!
B. What? Do you think I give away pencils and paper and ink?
C. What do you think I give away? Pencils and paper and ink.
D. Ink and paper and pencils away give. I think you do what?
51. What can we infer(推断) from the story?
A. Mr. Jones agreed to let the shoppers get things for free that day.
B. People in the town thought Mr. Jones a smart and honest man.
C. The woman paid the money unwillingly and left the shop angrily.
D. Mr. Jones’s trick won a longtime success and he got rich.

Five interesting sports
Our most unusual sports from around the world.
Every country has a national sport and some popular sports are now played across the world, However, in most countries, people also play unusual sports, with strange or interesting rules. Here are our top five unusual sports from around the planet.
Man vs. Horse Marathon
This race takes place in a small town in Wales, about 200 miles from London. It’s called a marathon (马拉松), but it's actually 35.4km, not 42.2km like a usual marathon. People race against horses across the hills and mountains. It started in 1981, but a human did not win until 2004.
Camel Wrestling
In Turkey, camel wrestling is a very old sport. The largest camel wrestling competition takes place every year and thousands of people come. In the sport, two camels fight against each other. Sometimes the camels do not want to fight and they run through the crowds, which can be dangerous.
Dragon Boat Racing
Every year in China, thousands of people watch dragon boat races. A dragon boat is a traditional Chinese boat with a painted dragon's head on one end. There can be up to 36 people or more racing in each boat in the water. Dragon boat racing is also popular in some other Asian countries.
Caber Toss
In this sport, players compete to throw a large piece of wood called a caber as far as they can. There is no rule about the size of the caber, but it’s usually the size of a small tree. It’s an ancient Scottish sport. Visitors to the UK can check it out.
Chess Boxing
A good chess boxer needs to be both strong and smart. Players play a round of chess, followed by a round of boxing. There are eleven rounds in total. Chess boxing was invented in 1992 by an English comic book writer. The sport is more popular in England and Germany.
52. What can we learn about Man vs. Horse Marathon?
A. it is an outdoor sport. B. It first appeared 16 years ago.

Mr. Jones opened a shop in Aston to sell writing-paper, pencils and things like that. During the first month, very few people visited his shop. He sold little, and he could see that he was going to lose money.
One night, Mr. Jones sat by the fire and was worried after another very bad day. Suddenly he got an idea. He found a piece of wood and wrote to the following notice on it in big letters:
“WHAT DO YOU THINK I GIVE AWAY PENCILS AND PAPER AND INK”
He put up the notice in front of the shop window before he went to bed. He slept better than usual that night.
The following day, many people came to the shop. Mr. Jones said good morning to them all with a bright smile and asked the first woman what she wanted.
She chose some writing paper and a pencil. As soon as he put them on her hands, she turned to leave the shop.
“That will be thirty cents(美分），please,” he said.
“Why?” she asked in surprise.
“That’s the price of the paper and the pencil.”
“But your notice says it’s free,” she answered.
“Oh no,” he said, “how can I make any money if everything is free?”
She took him outside and showed him the notice “It is wrong, too,” she said. “Where is the question mark after the world ‘think’?”
“There isn’t a question mark,” he said.
“But there should be one.”
“I’m afraid you’ve made a mistake,” Mr. Jones said. “You’ve read my notice in the wrong way.”
“Not at all,” said the woman. “It is quite easy to read. It says: What do you think? I give away pencils and paper and ink!”
“No,” Mr. Jones said. “You should read it like this: ______________.And the answer to the question is: Certainly not! So you really have to pay me thirty cents, you see.”
49. How did Mr. Jones most probably（可能） feel that night?
A. Confident(自信的). B. Unhappy. C. Terrible. D. Worried.
50. Which of the following sentences is the best for the blank in the last paragraph?

B. What? Do you think I give away pencils and paper and ink?
C. What do you think I give away? Pencils and paper and ink.
D. Ink and paper and pencils away give. I think you do what?
51. What can we infer(推断) from the story?
A. Mr. Jones agreed to let the shoppers get things for free that day.
B. People in the town thought Mr. Jones a smart and honest man.
C. The woman paid the money unwillingly and left the shop angrily.

Five interesting sports
Our most unusual sports from around the world.
Every country has a national sport and some popular sports are now played across the world, However, in most countries, people also play unusual sports, with strange or interesting rules. Here are our top five unusual sports from around the planet.
Man vs. Horse Marathon
This race takes place in a small town in Wales, about 200 miles from London. It’s called a marathon (马拉松), but it's actually 35.4km, not 42.2km like a usual marathon. People race against horses across the hills and mountains. It started in 1981, but a human did not win until 2004.
Camel Wrestling
In Turkey, camel wrestling is a very old sport. The largest camel wrestling competition takes place every year and thousands of people come. In the sport, two camels fight against each other. Sometimes the camels do not want to fight and they run through the crowds, which can be dangerous.
Dragon Boat Racing
Every year in China, thousands of people watch dragon boat races. A dragon boat is a traditional Chinese boat with a painted dragon's head on one end. There can be up to 36 people or more racing in each boat in the water. Dragon boat racing is also popular in some other Asian countries.
Caber Toss
In this sport, players compete to throw a large piece of wood called a caber as far as they can. There is no rule about the size of the caber, but it’s usually the size of a small tree. It’s an ancient Scottish sport. Visitors to the UK can check it out.
Chess Boxing
A good chess boxer needs to be both strong and smart. Players play a round of chess, followed by a round of boxing. There are eleven rounds in total. Chess boxing was invented in 1992 by an English comic book writer. The sport is more popular in England and Germany.
52. What can we learn about Man vs. Horse Marathon?
