But a few months ago, he became a college student in Lishan College in Shandong and he studies math there now. When hearing this news, many people were surprised. On school opening day, many reporters waited outside the school gate to interview him.
“I was born in a poor village in Shandong Province," said Jia. "Our village has never had a college student. Most boys work in town after growing up.

At the end of 2009, Jia found a job as a security guard at the library of Tsinghua University.“I cherished (珍惜) the job very much because it gave me a good chance to read books," Jia said.“I usually worked at night so I had plenty of time to study in the daytime.” When he had problems that he couldn't work out, Jia asked the students at Tsinghua for help. "My dream is to be a college teacher. So I need further education. That's the reason why I took the National College Entrance Exam again," Jia said. “I wish to educate students with my knowledge and love and help them enjoy true, kind and beautiful things.”
Jia's mother said Jia has always been independent(独立的)and knows what he wants. But she has other worries. "It's difficult to find such a good job at present as a library guard in Tsinghua University.

24、It was 21 years ago, on a very cold morning, Mary opened the library in New York. She heard a cat cry and found a white cat in a pile of books at last.
Mary recalled, “His little feet were frozen, we gave him a bath to warm him up and he purred(咕噜叫)all the time.”
It was a Cinderella story for Garfield in 1988, the cat who has lived happily among the books ever since.
“His story has a life of its own,” Mary says while reading the cat’s fan mail. “We have people drive hundreds of miles out of their way just to see Garfield. We even had a Japanese public television crew come here to make a short film of him.”
Shortly after the cat’s rescue, a photo of the library’s “new employee” sitting on the card catalog appeared in local newspapers. Local people were invited to help name the cat and many cast votes . “We have never had such a big crowd for a contest and there wasn’t even a prize,” Mary says with a laugh.
Garfield grew from a popular local “library employee” to a national star with his pictures on calendars. However, he is not the only cat who lives among books. Library cats greet people in about 100 libraries across America. Most live and “work” in comfortable, small town libraries where they don’t get lost in the books. Library cats used to earn their keep by catching rats, but modern library cats have more “white-collar” duties: to act charming and make the library a pleasant homey place.
“Library cats just create a nice, warm atmosphere,” says Roma, producer of Puss in Books, the film about library cats. “The cats attract children to the library and the elderly who maybe can’t have pets in their apartments,” Roma says. “Books, libraries, and cats just go together.”
【1】A contest was held after the cat’s rescue to ________ the cat.
A.win
B.name
C.film
D.feed
【2】We probably won’t be able to see the picture of Garfield in ________.
A.a Japanese film
B.the calendars
C.the card catalogs
D.the local newspaper
【3】People keep cats in the libraries because ________.
A.cats don’t like big places
B.cats can create a nice and warm atmosphere
C.there are more rats there
D.librarians are more friendly
【4】Library cats can do many things including ________
1) arranging card catalogs 2) greeting people
3) acting for a film 4) catching rats
5) making people feel at home
A.2;4;5
B.1;3
C.1;4;5
D.2;3;5
【5】From the passage we can infer (推断) that ________.
A.library cats only attract children and old people
B.Garfield is one of the cats who live among books
C.library cats are not as popular as they used to be
D.every library in America has at least one cat

Eat Less Meat, Please!
There are many ways to save the Earth. We can use less water, plant more trees, d【1】 less and bike more. Now, some scientists have put forward one more way to avoid dangerous climate change—eat less meat.
Their new research finds farm animals like caws and pigs p【2】 much more greenhouse gases than we thought. W【3】 action, the influence will become far worse as the world population continues to grow. And, as global income rises, more people will afford and eat meat-rich diets.
One of the researchers is Johan Rockstrom. He is a professor from Germany. “Feeding a world population of ten billion is p【4】, but only if we change how we eat,” the scientist said. “Greening food production creating up our planet—this is what is on the menu today.”
A U.N. report also warns that eating less meat and dairy is important. The current trends, however, are in the o【5】 direction. Rockstrom calculated that on average we needed to eat 75 percent less beef, 90 percent less pork and half the number of eggs. Education, taxes and changes to school and workplace menus can help achieve this goal.
In some countries, people have become more aware of the importance of changing their diets. In the Netherlands, young people have been eating less meat. “We know food choices are very personal. That behavior change can be difficult” said Rockstrom. “But the evidence is how clear. We need to change our d【6】 if we want to save our planet.”
