    Adults usually do not remember most of the things that are taught by their teachers at school. But this story is one   16  that I will never forget.
    It was a normal Monday morning, and my teacher was teaching us about  17  things in life and about devoting ourselves to what we really need. This is how the story went:
      18   lived in a certain part of London, and he would wake up every morning and go to the underground. He would get onto the train right to Central London, and then sit at the street corner and   19 . He would do this every single day of his life. He sat at  20 street corner and begged for almost 20 years.
    His  21  was dirty, and a stench （恶臭） came out. The neighbors could not bear the  22 any more, so they called for the police officers to clear the place. The officers knocked down the door and  23 the house. There were small bags of  24  all over the house that he had collected over the years.
    The police counted the money, and they soon   25 that the old man was a millionaire. They waited outside his house expecting to  26  the good news with him. When the old man arrived home that evening, one of the officers told him that there was no need for him to beg any more as he was a   27 man now, a millionaire.
    But the old man said  28  ;he went into his house and locked the door. The next morning he woke up  29  ,went to the underground, sat at the same street corner and continued to beg.
    Clearly, this old man had no great plans,  30   or anything significant (重大的) for his life. We learn nothing from this story but to stay focused on the things we enjoy doing.

    Once a circle lost a piece of its own. The circle wanted to be whole, so it went around looking for its missing piece. But because it was incomplete(不完整的)，it could only roll(滚) very slowly. It enjoyed the flowers and the sunshine along the way. It talked with insects(昆虫). It found lots of different pieces, but none of them fitted. So it left them all by the side of the road and kept on looking for the missing piece. Then one day the circle found a piece that fitted perfectly, it put the missing piece into itself. It could be whole, with nothing missing. It was so happy and began to roll. Now that it was a perfect circle, it could roll very fast, too fast to see flowers or talk to insects. It realized how different the world was when it rolled so quickly. It felt so sad that it stopped, left the piece it found by the side of the road and rolled away slowly.
    Sometimes, we are perfect when we lose something. A man who has everything is a poor man in some ways. He will never have hopes, dreams or something better.

    A thief entered the bedroom of the 30th President of the United States, who met him and helped him escape punishment.
    The event happened in the early morning hours on one of the first days when Calvin Coolidge came into power, late in August,1923. He and his family were living in the same third-floor suite (套房) at the Willard Hotel in Washington that they had moved in several years before. The former President’s wife was still living in the White House.
    Coolidge woke up to see a stranger go through his clothes, remove a wallet and a watch chain.
    Coolidge spoke, “I wish you wouldn’t take that.”
    The thief, gaining his voice, said, “Why?”
    “I don’t mean the watch and chain, only the charm (表坠). Take it near the window and read the words on its back, ” the president said.
    The thief read, “Presented to Calvin Coolidge.”
    “Are you President Coolidge?” he asked.
    The president answered, “ Yes, and the House of Representatives（众议院）gave me the watch charm. I’m fond of it. It would do you no good. You want money. Let’s talk this over.”
    Holding up the wallet, the young man said in a low voice, “I’ll take this and leave everything else.”
    Coolidge, knowing there was 80 dollars in it, asked the young man to sit down and talk. He told the President he and his college roommate had overspent during their holiday and did not have enough money to pay their hotel bill.
    Coolidge added up the roommate two rail tickets back to the college. Then he counted out 32 dollars and said it was a loan (借款).
    He then told the young man, “There is a guard in the corridor(走廊).” The young man nodded and left through the same window as he had entered.

    A．He knew the president had lots of money.
    B．He knew the president lived in the suite.
    C．He wanted to be a rich businessman.
    D．He wanted to steal some money.

    B．Because the former First Lady hadn’t left the White House.
    C．Because the hotel was suitable for the First Family to live.
    D．Because the First lady liked to live there.

    B．to make more money from the loan

        Mr. Brown lived in a house less than two miles from his office, so he was able to drive home every day for lunch. Every time he drove home at noon, he found many cars were parked outside his house and there was no room for his own car. He had to drive somewhere else to park his car. Then he had to walk back home. This made him very angry.
    He had put up a board, which said, “ No parking” in the garden facing the road, but nobody noticed it. People seemed to obey(遵守) only a police notice with letters on a blue board:
    POLICE NOTICE
    NO PARKING
    Mrs. Brown suggested that he could steal a police notice. He was afraid to do so. She then suggested that he could make one just like a police notice. He said he was not the police and couldn’t use the word “police”. Several days later, Mr. Brown made a blue board with white letters:
    POLITE NOTICE
    NO PARKING
    “ Oh!” Mrs. Brown said, “You told me you weren’t going to use the word  “police”, but why do you use it now?” “Really?” he asked, “Look again.” She started to laugh. “You are really clever.”

    Sunday is more like Monday than it used to be. Places of business that used to keep daytime “business hours” are now open late into the night. And on the Internet, the hour of the day and the day of the week have become irrelevant. A half century ago in the United states, most people experienced strong and precise dividing lines between days of rest and days of work, school time and summer time. Today the dividing lines are still there, but they seem not clear.
    The law in almost all states used to require stores to close on Sunday; in most, it no longer does. It used to keep the schools open in all seasons except summer, in most, it still does. And whether the work week should strengthen its legal（法律的）limits, or whether it should become more changeable, is often debated（争论）. How should we, as a society, organize our time? Should we go even further in relaxing the dividing lines of time until we live in a world in which every minute is much like every other?
    These are not easy questions even to ask. Part of the difficulty is that we seldom recognize the “law of time” even when we meet it face to face. We know as children that we have to go to  school a certain number of hours, a certain number of days, a certain number of years – but unless we meet the truant officer（学监）, we may well think that we should go to school because of social custom and parents’ requirement rather than to the law. As adults we know “extra pay for overtime working” very well, but less familiar with the fact that what constitutes（构成）“overtime” is a matter of legal thing. When we turn the clock forward to start daylight – saving time, have we ever thought to ourselves: “Here is the law in action”? As we shall see, there is a lot of law that has great influence on how organize and use time: compulsory education law, overtime law, and daylight-saving law – as well as law about Sunday closing, holidays, being late to work, time zones, and so on. Once we begin to look for it, we will have no trouble finding a law of time to examine and assess.
    小题1:What does the underlined word “irrelevant” probably mean?
    A．Impossible.B．Unacceptable. C．Unimportant.D．Disagreeable.
    小题2:The writer raises the questions in Paragraph 2 to introduce the fact that people _____.
    A．are unknowing of the law of time
    B．fail to make full use of their time
    C．welcome changeable working hours
    D．enjoy working overtime for more pay
    小题3:We can learn from the passage that most children go to school because they_____.
    A．have to follow the law
    B．need to find social customs
    C．need to learn more knowledge
    D．have to follow their parents’ requirement
    小题4:What is the main idea of the passage?
    A．Our life is governed by the law of time.
    B．How to use time is not worth debating.
    C．New ways of using time change our society.
    D．Our time table is decided by social customs.
