    Love, success, happiness, family and freedom----how important are these values to you? Here is one interview which explores the fundamental questions in life.
    Question: Could you introduce yourself first?
    Answer: My name is Misbah, 27 years old. I was born in a war-torn area. Right now I’m a web designer.
    Q: What are your great memories?
    A: My parents used to take us to hunt birds, climb trees, and play in the fields. For me it was like a holiday because we were going to have fun all day long. Those are my great memories.
    Q: Does your childhood mean a lot to you?
    A: Yes. As life was very hard, I used to work to help bring money in for the family. I spent my childhood working, with responsibilities beyond my age. However, it taught me to deal with problems all alone. I learnt to be independent.
    Q: What changes would you like to make in your life?
    A: If I could change something in my life, I’d change it so that my childhood could have taken place in another area. I would have loved to live with my family in freedom. Who cares whether we have much money, or whether we have a beautiful house? It doesn’t matter as long as I can live with my family and we are safe.
    Q: How do your get along with your parents?
    A: My parents supported me until I came of age. I want to give back what I’ve got. That’s our way. But I am working in another city. My only contact with my parents now is through the phone, but I hate using it. It filters（过滤）out your emotion and leaves your voice only. My deepest feelings should be passed through sight, hearing and touch.
    小题1:In Misbah’s childhood,     .
    A．he was free from worry
    B．he liked living in the countryside
    C．he was fond of getting close to nature
    D．he often spent holidays with his family
    小题2: What did Misbah desire most in his childhood?
    A．A colorful life.
    B．A beautiful house.
    C．Peace and freedom.
    D．Money for his family.
    小题3:How would Misbah prefer to communicate with his parents?
    A．By chatting on the Internet.
    B．By calling them sometimes.
    C．By paying weekly visits.
    D．By writing them letters.
    小题4:If there were only one question left, what would it most probably be?
    A．What was your childhood dream?
    B．What is your biggest achievement?
    C．What is your parents’ view of you?
    D．What was your hardest experience in the war?

    小题1:C

    小题4:B

    I was loading (装载) my truck to go to the market when I hurt my left eye. The pain was like a hot sword(剑) being shoved through my head. I fell down on my hands and knees, and I knew it was bad.
    I was taken to the Erlanger Hospital in Chattanooga, and the doctors operated on me several times but couldn’t save my left eye. When they told me the news, I wanted to die.
    Even after I got my fake（假的） eye, I couldn’t shake the sadness. To make matters worse, I lost my job as a transportation officer because of my lost eye. But one morning, I woke up and the TV was on, and there was a 16-year-old girl who had been badly burned on her face and legs. Her situation was much worse than mine. She wore a big smile and seemed to look right at me and said, “You can’t ever give up.” At that moment, I thought, “This is just an eye. Get over it.” And I did.
    It’s been almost 12 years since my accident, and there’s nothing I can’t do now that I used to do. And although I didn’t get my old job back, I got my license again.
    I read a story once. In that story, a man was feeling bad because he had no shoes until he met a man who had no feet. No matter how terrible your problem is, remember there’s always someone somewhere who’s worse off. So cheer up and smile at life!

    One day in my class，Maria shared her feelings about money，“Money worries me.I think I want to live without money because I hate it.I HATE MONEY.”We were all touched by Maria's words as they reminded us of the spiritual burdens that money managing can bring to us.After class I offered to help Maria deal with her financial problems.She hesitated to accept my offer，and I could see from the expression on her face that she was afraid of what it might involve.I quickly promised her that I wouldn't make her do more than she was able to.I told her frankly that I didn't enjoy managing my money any more than she did hers and wouldn't burden her with guilt，judgments，or impossible tasks.All I would ask her to do was to let me help her look at her fears and try to make some sense of them.
    Maria still resisted my offer，and I can remember the excuses she gave me as they were the repeated complaints I had heard from so many people.“I'll never understand money，”she said.“My facts are meaningless.”“I don't deserve to have money.”“I never have enough.”“I have too little to manage.”“My financial position isn't worth looking at.”and the most devastating one of all，“I just can't do it.”
    Going home that day，I couldn't get Maria out of my mind：her attitude conveyed the same negativity and  fear that I believed annoyed many people.I was sure it was this attitude that prevented people from managing their money effectively.My counseling(咨询)has taught me that these anxieties are inseparably connected to our self­doubts and fear for survival.Many of us are terrified of handling our money because we don't believe we can do it well，and to do it wrong would put our very existence at risk.
    On a deeper level we know that money is not the source of life，but sense of worth drives us to act as if it were.It locks us up in self­doubts and prevents us from tapping into the true source of our management power，our spirit.
    小题1:The underlined word“devastating”in Paragraph 2 probably means ________.
    A．convincingB．interestingC．shockingD．valuable
    小题2:Maria's words moved the author and others because they were ________.
    A．in the same financial troubleB．in the same financial condition
    C．of the same family backgroundD．of the same feeling over the issue
    小题3:As for money managing，the author intended to tell Maria how to ________.
    A．overcome her fearsB．make wise decisions
    C．avoid making mistakesD．learn the necessary skills
    小题4:Maria wouldn't take the author's offer of help for fear of________.
    A．being forced to share her money with others
    B．having to do something beyond her reach
    C．being found guilty of making impossible errors
    D．showing her judgment about money
    小题5:According to the author，people's anxieties about managing money result from their understanding of money as the only source of ________.
    A．lifeB．valuesC．spiritD．power

    When I was growing up, I had an old neighbor named Dr. Gibbs. He didn’t look like any doctor I’d ever known. He never yelled at us for playing in his yard. I remember him as someone who was a lot nicer than most of the adults in our community.
    When Dr. Gibbs wasn’t saving lives, he was planting trees. His house sat on ten acres, and his life’s goal was to make it a forest.
    The good doctor had some interesting theories concerning plant care and growth. He never watered his new trees, which flew in the face of conventional wisdom. Once I asked why. He said that watering plants spoiled them so that each successive tree generation would grow weaker and weaker. So you have to make things rough for them and weed out(淘汰) the weaker trees early on. He talked about how watering trees made for shallow roots, and how trees that weren’t watered had to grow deep roots in search of moisture. I took him to mean that deep roots were to be treasured.
    So he never watered his trees. He planted an oak and, instead of watering it every morning, he beat it with a rolled-up newspaper. Smack! Slap! Pow! I asked him why he did that, and he said it was to get the tree’s attention.
    Dr. Gibbs passed away a couple of years after I left home. Every now and again, I walked by his house and looked at the trees that I’d watched him plant some twenty-five years ago. They’re extremely tall, big and robust since they have deep roots now. However, the trees in my garden trembled in a cold wind although I had watered them for several years.
    It seems that adversity(逆境) and suffering benefit these trees in ways comfort and ease never could. I stood there deep in thought.
    Every night before I go to bed, I check on my two sons. I stand over them and watch their little bodies, the rising and falling of life within. I often pray for them. Mostly I pray that their lives will be easy. But I think that it’s time to change my prayer(祷词) because now I know my children are going to encounter hardship.
    小题1:According to Dr. Gibbs’ theories, trees will become weaker if they _________.
    A．are lack of careB．are wateredC．are weeded outD．are beaten
    小题2:According to Para.3 and Para.4, we can infer that Dr. Gibbs’ motto(座右铭) may be       .
    A．“Seeing is believing”B．“Put everything in proper use”
    C．“Practice makes perfect”D．“No pain, no gain”
    小题3:The underlined word robust in Para.5 most probably means _________.
    A．strong　　B．strange　　C．deep　　D．old
    小题4:Which of the following may be the author’s best prayer for his two sons now?
    A．I wish them strong wings, with which they can fly higher and touch the sky.
    B．I wish them nice fortune so that they can meet people like Dr. Gibbs in the future.
    C．I wish them deep roots into the earth since the rains fall and the winds blow often.
    D．I wish them great shades under the tree since the sunlight is always sharp and bitter.
    小题5:Which of the following can be the best title of this passage?
    A．A Nice Doctor B．The Deep Roots C．Adversity and SufferingD．My Childhood Memory

    Sometimes life makes more sense when you look at it in reverse (相反). That's certainly been true for me.
    Last Christmas, at 39, I caught a disease which attacked my knees and eyes. At its worst I could hardly walk or see. For months I' d have to crawl (爬) across the floor to use the bathroom or get a drink of water when my husband wasn't home. For a while I could only see shapes and colors so I couldn't drive.
    My parents kept begging me to let them come out to stay with me in Los Angeles, but our apartment is small and I knew there was nothing they could really do to help me. For the excellent health insurance my husband had through his job, I was receiving the best medical care possible.
    My only problem was that I couldn't drive to my doctors' appointments and I didn't want my husband to keep missing work to drive me. Three days after I explained this to my parents, a check came from them with a note saying this was "taxi money". Several months later another check showed up from my brother to help make up our income since I wasn't able to work. It probably goes without saying that I was extremely grateful to have family members who could and would support me during the hard time.
    In terms of my day-to-day existence, I live in a village within Los Angeles called Brentwood so I was able to walk to the local post office, market, bank, and library. But once there, I had to depend on the kindness of strangers to help me. Los Angeles is a big city, but I lived in a village with a wonderful community (社区) of people who were kind and patient.
    Slowly I became well. Life was good again and I thought I had a clear understanding of the blessings (恩惠) this illness has provided.

    A．Her husband didn't drive well.
    B．Her husband was too busy.
    C．She didn't want to affect his work.
    D．Her doctor was far away from her.
    小题3:What is the fourth paragraph mainly about?
    A．The help that the author received from her family members.
    B．The influence of the author's disease on her family.
    C．The author's thanks to her family members.

    A long time ago, there was a seed and because he was only a seed, nobody noticed him．Thus, feeling inferior （低等的）, the seed gave no importance to his existence （存在）．
    Then one day, a wind picked him up and threw him on an open field under the sun．Later, he was given rain．
    Years later he saw a traveler sitting by his side．“Thank God for this．I really need some rest,” he heard the traveler say．
    “What are you talking about?” the seed quickly asked．He thought the man was making fun of him．No one ever spoke to him like that．
    “Who just spoke?” the shocked man asked．
    “It is me．A seed．”
    `“A seed?” The man looked at the big tree．“Are you joking? You are not a seed．You are a big tree!”
    “Really?”
    “Yes! Why else do you think people come here?”
    “What do they come here for?”

    What color do you like best? Do you like yellow, orange and red? If you do, you must be an optimist, a leader, or an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement. Do you prefer grey and blue? Then you are probably quiet, shy and you would rather follow than lead. If you love green, you are likely to be strong-minded and determined. You wish to succeed and want other people to see you are successful. At least this is what psychologists （心理学家）tell us. They have been seriously studying the meaning of color preference, and the effects that colors have on human beings. They tell us that we don’t choose our favorite color as we grow up. If you happen to love brown, you do so as soon as you open your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly.
    　　Black is depressing while light and bright colors make people not only happier but more active. A yellow room makes us feel more cheerful and more comfortable than a dark green one does, and a red dress adds warmth and cheer to sad winter days. It is a fact that factory workers work better, harder and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or dark grey.
    　　Remember, then, that if you feel low, you can always brighten your day or your life with a few colorful things. Also remember that you will know your friends (and your enemies) better when you find out what colors they like and dislike. And don’t forget that anyone can guess a lot about you when you choose a piece of handkerchief.
    67. 小题1:According to the passage, men’s 110-meter hurdles Olympic champion and world record holder Liu Xiang is most likely to love the color ______.
    A．blackB．greyC．greenD．brown
    68. 小题2:Why are machines painted orange in some factories, according to the passage?
    A．Because workers tend to prefer orange to other colors.
    B．Because other colors are forbidden in factories.
    C．Because less accidents happen due to the introduction of orange machines.
    D．Because orange machines are easier to clean.
    69. 小题3:Which of the following statements is Not true according to the passage?
    A．It’s possible to cheer you up by enjoying some colorful pictures.
    B．You can know your friends better through the color they like or dislike.
    C．Some people are born with their colorful preference.
    D．One’s color preference is always changeable.
    70. 小题4:The underlined word ‘depressing’ in Paragraph 2 probably means ‘______’.
    A．discouragingB．happy
    C．surprisingD．brave
