    It was getting dark and snow was coming down. Joe was driving home. He'd been unemployed since the factory closed. Most of his friends had left, but he stayed on. After all, he was born here. Suddenly he saw a lady standing on the side of the road and then he pulled up. She was worried. No one had stopped to help her. Was he going to hurt her? He looked poor and hungry. Joe knew how she felt and said, “My name is Joe and I'm here to help you.” All she had was a flat tire, but for an old lady, that was bad enough. Joe changed the tire, but he got dirty and his hands were hurt.
    She wanted to pay Joe and said any amount would have been all right. Joe never thought twice about the money and there were plenty who had given him a hand in the past. He had lived his whole life that way. He told her that if she really wanted to pay him back, the next time she saw someone who needed help, she could give that person the assistance that they needed. Later the lady went in a small restaurant to take a bite to eat. The cash register was like the telephone of an out-of-work actor-it didn't ring much. The waitress, who was nearly eight months pregnant (怀孕) brought a clean towel to her with a sweet smile. The old lady remembered Joe. After the waitress brought the change from a 100-dollar bill, she found the lady gone and something written on a piece of paper “Someone once helped me out-the way I'm helping you. If you really want to pay me back, don't let the chain of love end with you.” That night the waitress gave her sleeping husband a soft kiss and whispered, “Everything's going to be all right. I love you, Joe.”

    I’ve loved my mother’s desk since I was just tall enough to see above the top of it as Mother sat doing letters(学问). Standing by her chair, looking at the ink bottle, pens, and white paper, I decided that the act of writing must be the most wonderful thing in the world.
    Years later, during her final illness, Mother kept different things for my sister and brother. “But the desk”, she said again, “is for Elizabeth.” I never saw her anger, never saw her cry. I knew she loved me; she showed it in action. But as a young girl, I wanted heart-to-heart talks between mother and daughter. They never happened. And a gulf opened between us. I was too emotional. But she lived “on the surface”.
    As years passed, I had my own family. I loved my mother and thanked her for our happy family. I wrote to her in careful words and asked her to let me know in any way she chose that she did forgive（原谅）me. I posted the letter and waited for her answer. None came. My hope turned to disappointment, then little interest and, finally, peace-it seemed that nothing happened. I couldn’t be sure that the letter had even got to Mother. I only knew that I had written in, and I could stop trying to make her into someone she was not.
    Now the present of her desk told me, as she’d never been able to, that she was pleased that writing was my chosen work. I cleaned the desk carefully and found some papers inside－a photo of my father and a one-page letter, folded and refolded many times. Give me an answer, my letter asks, in any way you chose. Mother, you always chose the act that speaks louder than words.
    小题1:The writer began to love her mother’s desk _______.
    A．after Mother died.B．before she became a writer.
    C．when she was a child.D．when Mother gave it to her.
    小题2:The passage shows that _____.
    A．Mother was cold on the surface but kind in her heart to her daughter.
    B．Mother was too serious about everything her daughter had done.
    C．Mother cared much about her daughter in words.
    D．Mother wrote to her daughter in careful words.
    小题3:The word gulf in the paragraph 2 means ______.
    A．deep understanding between the old and the young.
    B．different ideas between the mother and the daughter.
    C．free talks between mother and daughter.
    D．part of the sea going far in land.
    小题4:What did mother do with her daughter’s letter asking for forgiveness?
    A．She had never received the letter.
    B．For years, she often talked about the letter.
    C．She didn’t forgive her daughter at all in all her life.
    D．She read the letter again and again till she died.
    小题5:What’s the best title of the passage?
    A．My Letter to Mother.B．Mother and Children.
    C．My Mother’s Desk.D．Talks between Mother and Me.

    A Love Note To My Mom
    When I was a little girl, I would often accompany you as you modeled for fashion photographers. It was years later that I finally understood what role modelling  36 in your life. Little did I know you were  37 every penny you earned to go to  38  school.
    I cannot thank you enough for  39 you told me one autumn afternoon when I was nine. After finishing my homework, I went into the dining room where you were buried  40  piles of law books. I was  41  .Why were you doing what I do—memorizing textbooks and studying for  42  ? When you said you were in law school, I was more puzzled. I didn’t know. Moms could be lawyers too. You smiled and said, “In life, you can do anything you want to do.”
    As young as I was, that statement kept  43 in my ears. I watched as you faced the  44 of completing your studies, starting companies with Dad, while still being a  45 and a Mom with five kids. I was exhausted just watching you in action. With your words of wisdom in my youthful mind, I suddenly felt unlimited freedom to dream. My whole world  46 . I set out to live my life filled with        47  , seeing endless possibilities for personal and professional achievements.
    Your words became my motto. I constantly found myself in the unique position of being either the first (woman doctor in Maryland Rotary) or one of the few women (chief medical reporters) in my field. I gained strength every time I said , “Yes, I’ll try that.”
    Encouraged by your  48 , I have forged ahead (毅然前行) with my life’s journey, less afraid to make mistakes, and  49 meeting each challenge. You did it, and now I’m  50 it. So, get to run. So much to do, so many dreams to live.

    I was packed and ready to leave for my two days’ trip. My mind had been filled with work and with so many small things to deal with. As I got into the car to leave, my thoughts turned to my children. I’d been preparing for the trip for the last few days, and now I’d be away for a few days.
    How to keep in touch with your kids during busy time is often a father’s problem. Men tend to focus on one thing extremely well for long periods, but this can lead to trouble. Shifting(移开) from work to your family life isn't always the easiest thing to do. And if you don’t show your kids that you’re thinking about them, they may think that you are not.
    As I started down the road, I suddenly stopped the car and turned around. I drove back to my house, found a couple of cards, and wrote a short message to each of my children. I put each in a “secret” place where I knew they’d find it.
    When I called the next night, it was clear that they’d received the cards. “Daddy, I got your card,” they both said excitedly. “When did you do that?”
    My heart was warmed when I heard this. It was such a small thing. But it had a big impact(影响) on my kids. It was their “proof” that I was thinking about them. And it was encouragement for me to continue to do the small things that have a big impact.
    小题1: From the passage we can infer that the author thinks a father should ______.
    A．care for his kids, no matter how busy he is
    B．have a big impact on his kids
    C．spend some time playing with his kids
    D．stay at home as long as possible
    小题2:Before leaving for the trip the author considered ________.
    A．preparing some food for the trip
    B．buying some nice gifts for his children
    C．doing something to show his concern for his kids
    D．telling his children to be careful at home
    小题3:The author’s kids were excited when they answered the phone because _______.
    A．their father had thought highly of them
    B．they had found the cards from their father
    C．they had done something good at home
    D．their father told them he would be back soon
    小题4:What does the underlined word “that” in the fourth paragraph refer to?
    A．Packing luggage.
    B．Reaching the hotel.
    C．Writing short messages.
    D．Going back home.
    小题5:Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
    A．All for the children
    B．Play with your children
    C．A father and his kids
    D．Show love to your kids

    If you feel at present that you don’t have enough friends in your life，one reason may be that you have let yourself become too busy to make time for the relationships you already have.
    Starting and keeping friendship requires effort and commitment．Many of us let our lives become so busy with work and other commitments that we don’t get around to scheduling time for pleasure and renewal（叙旧，更新）with the friends，relatives and acquaintances we already have．
    Making the effort to call your friends more regularly and to accept more of the invitations you receive from others can improve your social life in a hurry!
    Are there any people you could call right now and be assured of a pleasant welcome? Are there people that you could count on to help you in time of difficulty? Can you have close talks with them? Do you have fun when you are together? Are you happy to have them in your life?
    If you haven’t seen much of them lately, is it because you have become too busy? Have you grown apart? Was there an argument?
    If the main reason you haven’t been getting together with the people you already know is because you have gotten too busy, take a good look at how you spend your time．Compare it with your real values and priorities（优先考虑的事）in life．Is your busy lifestyle really bringing you the quality of life that you want?
    If you have become too busy for friends，why has this happened? Are you seeking material toys in your life at the expense of relationships with other human beings? Have you allowed your time to be over-committed because you never say “No” to anyone? Do you insist on doing things yourself that could be delegated to others? If so, why? Do you believe that everything depends on you?
    Examine whether the way you are now spending your time accurately reflects your deepest values and priorities．Make sure that you schedule adequate time for the things that are truly most important to you．
    If you really want to keep friends in your life, make a space in your schedule, and a space in your heart for them.
    小题1: The author mainly discusses _______________in this passage.
    A．how to spend our spare time
    B．how to balance friendship and work
    C．whether we should keep friendship
    D．whether we should invite friends to dinner
    小题2:Which of the following doesn’t indicate a good relationship?
    A．You feel depressed with others in life.
    B．You have someone to have close talks with.
    C．You have someone to count on when you are in trouble.
    D．You have fun when you are with someone.
    小题3:What does the underlined word “delegated” (Para.7) probably mean?
    A．declinedB．answeredC．appointedD．handled
    小题4:The reason why you have become too busy for friends may be the following EXCEPT that________.
    A．you spend too much time seeking material toys in your life
    B．you stick to doing everything all by yourself
    C．you feel it difficult to keep friendship
    D．you never refuse whatever other people ask you to do
    小题5: Which would be the best title for the text?
    A．How to Make New FriendsB．Too busy for Friendship?
    C．How to Spend Your Time D．Too busy with work?

    Linda Evans was my best friend—like the sister I never had. We did everything together: piano lessons, movies, swimming, horse back riding.
    When I was 13, my family moved away. Linda and I kept in touch through letters, and we saw each other on special time—like my wedding and Linda’s. Soon we were busy with children and moving to new homes, and we wrote less often. One day a card that I sent came back, stamped “Address Unknown. ” I had no idea how to find Linda.
    Over the years, I missed Linda very much. I wanted to share happiness of my children and then grandchildren. And I needed to share my sadness when my brother and then mother died. There was an empty place in my heart that only a friend like Linda could fill.
    One day I was reading a newspaper when I noticed a photo of a young woman who looked very much like Linda and whose last name was Wagman — Linda’s married name. “There must be thousands of Wagmans,” I thought, but I still wrote to her.
    She called as soon as she got my letter. “Mrs Tobin!” she said excitedly, “Linda Evans Wagman is my mother. ”
    Minutes later I heard a voice that I knew very much, even after 40 years, laughed and cried and caught up on each other’s lives. Now the empty place in my heart is filled. And there’s one thing that Linda and I know for sure: We won’t lose each other again!

    科目：高中英语 来源：不详 题型：阅读理解

    The right to pursue happiness is issued to us all with our birth, but no one seems quite sure what it is.
    A holy man in India may think that happiness is in himself. It is in needing nothing from outside himself. If wanting nothing, he lacks nothing. We westerners, however, are taught that the more we have from outside ourselves, the happier we will be, and then we are made to want. We are even told it is our duty to want. Advertising, one of our major industries, exists not to satisfy these desires but to create them---and to create them faster than any man’s money in his pocket can satisfy them. Here, obviously someone is trying to buy the dream of happiness and spending millions upon millions every year in the attempt. Clearly the happiness-market is not running out of customers.
    I doubt the holy man’s idea of happiness, and I doubt the dreams of the happiness-market, too. Whatever happiness may be, I believe, it is neither in having nothing nor in having more, but in changing --- in changing the world and mankind into pure states.
    To change is to make efforts to deal with difficulties. As Yeats, a great Irish poet once put it, happiness we get for a lifetime depends on how high we choose our difficulties.
    It is easy to understand. We even demand difficulty for the fun in our games. We demand it because without difficulty there can be no game. And a game is a way of making something hard for the fun of it. The rules of the game are man-made difficulties. When the player ruins the fun, he always does so by refusing to play by the roles. It is easier to win at chess if you are free, at your pleasure, to cast away all the rules, but the fun is in winning within the rules.
    The same is true to happiness. The buyers and sellers at the happiness-market seem to have lost their sense of the pleasure of difficulty. Heaven knows what they are  playing, but it seems a dull game. And the Indian holy man seems dull to us, I suppose, because he seems to be refusing to play anything at all.
    The western weakness may be in the dreams that happiness can be bought while eastern weakness may be in the idea that there is such a thing as perfect happiness in man himself. Both of them forget a basic fact: no difficulty, no happiness.
    小题1:Who shares the same idea of happiness with the author?
    A．The Indian holy manB．The great Irish poet Yeats
    C．AdvertisersD．The buyers and sellers at the happiness-market
    小题2:What does “happiness-market” mean in the second paragraph?
    A．It means a place in which people can buy things happily
    B．It means a market which lacks happy customers
    C．It means a pure state for the world and mankind
    D．It means a market where people try to buy happiness with money.
    小题3:According to the passage, which of the following is Right?
    A．The Indian holy man is much happier than westerner.
    B．The westerners understand happiness better than the Indian holy man.
    C．There is no fun without playing by the rules
    D．Both the eastern weakness and western weakness are the same.
