Sneakers are a kind of shoes worn by many people all over the world.       , no one really knows where the word “sneaker” came from. Some say it came from the old English verb “sneak”, which means to move silently and quickly. The only thing we are       is that when you put on a pair of sneakers, you feel light-hearted, light-footed and ready to play.

Sneakers of some kind are used by those who play tennis, basketball, and other sports. New design has been made        for people who run slowly. In fact American children of         ages would much rather play in sneakers than anything else.
New York City once held a poetry competition for children. The subject was only “sneaker”. One prize winner called     poem “The Sneaker and the World Peace”. “When everyone is wearing sneakers,” she said, “it will be impossible to        .”
American school children can be seen every day      sneakers of all colors. They put them on in the morning and take them off at bedtime. Sneakers are      washed. Some children think the older and dirtier they are, the         loveable they are. When their sneakers wear out, children hate to throw them off. How do you explain the closeness between      and sneakers? Perhaps another young winner in the New York Poetry Contest said it best. “A shoe is just a shoe,” he said. “But a sneaker is a friend.”

The story was a true one and still moved me deeply. Thirty years ago,I got to know a   36 lady named Rose. She had no kids and lived alone.     37­­­­­­   I went to visit her, I always took Rose some coffee and food. One day she said she    38    me to have hunch.
We walked from my work place to a little restaurant on David Street.    39    the way, I began to worry: I knew that she had no money, but if I offered(提供) to    40   the lunch,I was afraid I would hurt her.
There were many people in the    41    and all of them were happy. Rose told me to sit and drink coffee by the window. Then she went to    42  in the kitchen. After about 20 minutes, she came out and sat with me. She just paid for one meal and we started to   43  the delicious food together. She told    44    that the restaurant let people work for a meal if they had no money, or would give them a free meal if they were not able to work. To my surprise, she also explained that the workers who were working there were all    45   .
    46    remember the beautiful afternoon I shared with Rose.    47    we had a meal together only once, it was paid by Rose's work. The weather was    48    and bright, and everyone's smile was warm and bright as well.
I’m still thinking that life cannot be easy to us, but we can still do     49    for our friends and neighbors. The world will be     50    if everybody would like to share happiness with others. It will never be dark if there is a light in everyone's heart.

Once my father asked me to hold his hammer while he repaired something, so we could have some time to talk to each other.
For 22 years, after I left home for college, he called me every Sunday at 9 am. He was always interested in my life and how my family was doing, and I never once heard him complain about his own life.
Nine years ago when I bought my first house, my father, 67 years old, spent eight hours a day painting it for three days. He would not allow me to pay someone to have it done. All he asked for was a glass of iced tea and for me to hold a paint brush for him and talk to him. But I was too busy.
Five years ago, at age 71, my father spent five hours putting together a swingset (秋千组) for my daughter. Again, all he asked was that I get him a glass of iced tea and talk to him. But again, I was too busy.
Four years ago, my father drove all the way from Denver to Topeka, with an eight-foot Colorado blue spruce (蓝叶云杉) in his trunk, so that my husband and I could have a part of Colorado growing on our land. I was preparing for a trip that weekend and couldn’t spend much time with him.
Then, one day, my father telephoned me as usual, this time from my sister’s home in Florida. We talked about the tree he had brought me, “Fat Albert”, but that morning he called it “Fat Oscar”, and he seemed to have forgotten some things. I had to get to church, so I cut the conversation short.
The call came at 4:40 pm that day: my father was in hospital in Florida with an aneurysm (动脉瘤). I got on a plane immediately, and on the way I thought of all the times I had not taken the time to talk to my father. I realized that I had no idea who he was or what his deepest thoughts were. I promised that when I arrived, I would make up for lost time.
I arrived in Florida at 1 am. My father had passed away at 9:12 pm. This time it was he who did not have time to talk to me.
小题1:Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A.The writer arrived in Florida before her father passed away.
B.The writer didn’t find enough time to talk to her father all these years.
C.The writer noticed nothing unusual about her father’s health before he was put in the hospital.
D.The writer’s father brought them the Colorado blue spruce because it is an expensive kind of tree.
小题2:How did the writer feel when she was rushing to the hospital where her father was staying?
A.Hopeless. B.Sorry.
C.Frightened. D.Disappointed.
小题3:Which words best describe the writer’s father?
A.Honest and modest.
B.Strict and demanding (要求高的).
C.Talkative and positive (积极乐观的).
D.Caring and thoughtful.
小题4:What’s the best title of this passage?
A.What a good father!B.How busy I am.
C.Time keeps going.D.My father and our family.
