A young man went to visit a wise man living deep in the mountain for the wisdom of life.
“Excuse me! Could you please tell me what the most           day in our lives is?Is it the day when we were born or the day we           ?Is it the day when we fall in love or the day we succeed?”The young man asked.
          The most important day in our lives is today. ”The wise man replied calmly.
“Why?”The young man felt more than           . “Is it because there is a moving event taking place today?”
“No. Nothing has happened today. ”
“Is it because of my visit?”
“Even if nobody visited me today, today is            very important because today is the only wealth we have. No matter how memorable yesterday is, it has gone by like a ship going down into the sea; no matter how bright tomorrow may be, it is yet to come; but no matter how common today is, it is           our control (控制). ”
The young man still wanted to ask something, while the wise man           him and said, “When we are talking about the meaning of today, we have           a lot of it. ”
The young man nodded and then went down the mountain.
Actually, today is the only           we have. So, what we should do now is to           yesterday and tomorrow and catch fast today!

Do you know HFMD? It’s short for Hand-Foot-Mouth Disease. This year, in China, thousands of children were suffering from it. What’s HFMD? How to prevent it? Now, read the passage please.
HFMD usually affects babies who are 1~4 years old, but adults can also be infected. Both EV71 and Cox A16 can cause HFMD, which usually starts with a slight fever followed by blisters (水泡) and ulcers (溃疡) in the mouth and rashes (皮疹) on the hands and feet.
It can be spread through people with the mucus (唾液) or feces (粪便) of an infected person. It usually appears during the summer and autumn months. HFMD isn’t Bird Flu, SARS or Mad Cow Disease, but it’s not a new one, either. It first appeared in New Zealand in 1957. About forty years later, it appears in Asia. It’s reported that it breaks out every 2 or 3 years.
HFMD is very terrible and there is no vaccine (疫苗) now, but we can do something helpful to prevent it. ‘Children with HFMD should seek medical treatment as early as possible’, experts say. They also suggest that parents keep the air fresh in a child’s room, which should be kept clean, tidy and dry. Children should be taught to wash their hands regularly. Staying away from crowded public places is also basic.

“Never give up!” It is my law of life. It has brought me      . I learned the law from my father’s          story.
My father was         in a poor village in the north of Jiangsu, in China. When he was a young boy, he went to school in the morning, then         in the fields till sunset. And then he did his homework          midnight. Life was hard, because they had no        !
At the age of 14, my father heard of the United States of America. It was the land of gold, the land where         people can become rich.
        don’t I go to America?”he thought to himself, full of hope.
So my father came to America. “I had thought it was easy to        money in America,”he told me. “But when I arrived there, I realized it was not true. They did not like to hire me because I spoke         English. Later, I worked in a small restaurant, cleaning up tables,      dishes and sweeping the floor. Life was         for the first few years. I worked from 10 am to 11 pm. I wanted to go to school to learn English, but it was impossible. I couldn’t        the schooling.”
My father      working hard, and reached his goal.
“Alan,”he often says to me. “If you want something, you have to work for it and never give up. Things do not come         in life.”That is what I learned from my father.

On the way back from work every evening, more often than not there would be a homeless man standing at the exit of the freeway (快车道). He looked to be in his late 40s but was probably a lot younger. He had shoulder length straight black hair and a short beard.
Every day after work I would remember to gather any spare change, and put it aside to give to him if I saw him. A feeling of joy would come over me every time I saw him, while coming off the ramp (坡道). So did he. Sometimes the red light would be on for a minute and we would ask each other about our day. His answer would always be the same, “I’m blessed!”
Then one day I was called into my boss’s office and was told that I was being laid off. For the rest of that day all I could think of was “how am I going to provide for my kids as a mother, how am I going to pay rent?”
Needless to say that on my way home that day I was very sad and upset. I didn’t remember to look for my spare change and keep it ready like I usually did. Yet there he was as always, as I turned the ramp. He set his eyes on me, while still smiling and waving at others as usual.
While I was waiting for the red light to turn, he strolled (闲逛) over to my car. He had a big smile. He looked at me straight in the eyes and said, “Today I will give you a dollar.” He then reached into his pocket and pulled out a dollar bill.
You see that day he taught me a valuable lesson more than a dollar bill. No matter what material things are taken from you, no one can take away your choice to be joyful. Every time I’m faced with challenges, I think of the homeless man’s valuable lesson and remember that I am blessed.
小题1: The writer would have a short conversation with the homeless man when                .

B.she gave spare change to him
C.she had a good time that day
D.she wanted to know how he lived

A.Because she was criticized by the boss.
B.Because a new job was offered to her.
C.Because she was laid off by the boss.
D.Because there was something wrong with her job.
小题3: What is NOT true about the homeless man from the passage?
A.He would be seen at the exit of the freeway.
B.He usually smiled and waved at others.
C.He had a deep impression on the writer.
D.He felt joyful only when money was offered to him.
小题4:The homeless man gave the writer a dollar because                     .
A.he had collected a lot of money
B.he wanted to pay back her
C.he knew what she experienced
D.he wanted her to be happy
小题5: The writer learned from the story that                        .
A.a dollar bill will be enough to make you happy
B.each of us has been blessed all the time

A game of “catch” is just two people throwing a ball back and forth (来回地). They might have baseball               , or they might use their hands.In fact, playing catch is part of baseball          to make you get used to using a ball and a glove. But any American kid will tell you it’s much more than that.
Playing catch is a time for kids to be with their          . It’s a time when there’s nothing to worry about besides catching a ball. It’s a time when words move as smoothly as the ball itself back-and-forth, easy and relaxing. It’s an excuse to spend time          .When you ask some adults(成年人) to          the good memories of their dads, they nearly always say something about playing catch. Why? Probably because dads are usually very          with their work. A catch game is a time that is only for one thing. This is a time when a kid has his or her dad’s attention. There is no work, no phone and no other people around to take your dad away          you. For the time of playing a game of catch—your dad is all          .

Twenty years ago, I drove a taxi for a living. One night I went to pick up a passenger at 2:30 AM. When I arrived there, I walked to the door and knocked, “Just a minute,” answered a weak, elderly voice.
After a long pause, the door opened. A small woman in her eighties stood before me. By her side was a small suitcase.
When we got into the taxi, she gave me an address, and then asked, “Could you drive through downtown?”
“It’s not the shortest way,” I answered quickly.
“Oh, I’m in no hurry,” she said. “I’m on my way to a hospice(临终医院). I don’t have any family left. The doctor says I don’t have very long.”
I quietly reached over and shut off the meter(计价器).
For the next two hours, we drove through the city. She showed me the building where she had once worked, the neighborhood where she had lived, and the furniture shop that had once been a ballroom where she had gone dancing as a girl.
Sometimes she’d ask me to slow down in front of a special building and would sit staring into the darkness, saying nothing.
In the early morning, she suddenly said,” I’m tired. Let’s go now.”
We drove in silence to the address she had given me.
“How much do I pay you?” she asked.
“Nothing.” I said.
“You have to make a living,” she answered. “Oh, there are other passengers,” I answered.
Almost without thinking, I gave her a hug(拥抱). She held on me and said, “You gave an old woman a little moment of joy.”
小题1:The old woman chose to ride through the city in order to ______.
A.show she was familiar with the city
B.see some places for the last time
C.let the driver earn more money
D.reach the destination on time
小题2:The taxi driver did not get the money because he ______.
A.wanted to give her a hand
B.shut off the meter by mistake
C.had received her payment already
D.was in a hurry to take other passengers
小题3:What can we learn from the story?
A.No pains, no gains.
B.People should respect(尊重) each other.
C.An act of kindness can bring people great joy.
D.People should learn to enjoy our life.
