    My wife and I had just finished the 150-mile trip home from our daughter’s college. It was the first time in our life that we would __36__ for any length of time. We wondered how other people had __37__ it.
    Later in bed, I __38__ the time I started college. My father had driven me, too. My mother had to stay home to keep the __39__ from getting into the crops. I, the fourth in a line of brothers, was the first to __40__ college.
    The truck was slow, and I was glad. I didn’t want to get to the city __41__. I shook hands with my father in the truck and he didn’t say a word. But I knew he was going to make a little __42__. He finally said, “I never went to college and __43__ of your brothers did. I can’t say don’t do this or that, because everything is __44__ and I don’t know what is going to come up, but I think things will __45__. When you get a job, be sure to be honest and work hard.” I knew that soon I would be __46__ in the big town and I would be __47__ the life home.
    Then my father __48__ the Bible that he had read so often. I knew that he would miss it but I must __49__ it. He just said, “This can help you __50__ you will let it.”
    When I finished school I took the Bible __51__ to my father. But he said he wanted me to __52__ it.
    Now, too often, I remember. It would have been so __53__ to give it to my daughter when she got out of the car. But I didn’t. My father could give me only a Bible, but now I don’t really believe that I gave her half as __54__ as my father gave me. So the next morning I __55__ up the book and sent it to her. I wrote a note “This can help you.” I said, “if you will let it.”

    There is an English saying that “Laughter is the best medicine.” Until recently, few people took the saying seriously. Now however, doctors have begun to look into laughter and the effects it has on the human body. They have found that laughter can really improve people’s health.
    Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body. People watched funny films while doctors checked their hearts, blood pressure, breathing and muscles. It was found that laughter has similar effects to physical exercise. It increases blood pressure, makes the heart beat quicker and makes people breathe deeper; it also works on several groups of muscles in the face, the stomach, and even the feet. If laughter exercises the body, it must be beneficial.
    Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be able to reduce the effects of pain on the body. In one experiment doctors produced pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programs. The group that tolerated（忍耐）the pain for the longest time was the group which listened to a funny program. The reason why laughter can reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce a kind of chemical in the brain which diminishes both stress and pain.
    As a result of these discoveries, some doctors in the United States now hold laughter clinics, in which they help to improve their patients’ condition by encouraging them to laugh. They have found that even if their patients do not really feel like laughing, making them smile is enough to produce beneficial effects similar to those caused by laughter.
    小题1:According to the passage, the following statements are true except       .
    A．Laughter is good for health
    B．Laughter can make you become old quickly
    C．Laughter helps to reduce pain.
    D．Laughter, just like physical exercise, is good for our body.
    小题2:The underlined word “diminishes” in the third paragraph means “     ”.
    A．delaysB．preventsC．increasesD．reduces
    小题3:Some doctors hold laughter clinics because         .
    A．they want to earn more money.
    B．they think they will help the patients recover from illnesses.
    C．they want to improve their patients’ condition.
    D．they want their patients to practice how to laugh
    小题4:According to the author, we should         .
    A．laugh as much as possibleB．watch more funny films
    C．smile all the timeD．spend more time in laughter clinics
    小题5:The best title for this passage may be         .
    A．Both laughter and physical exercise are good for health
    B．Laughter clinics help patients improve their condition
    C．Laughter can reduce the effects of pain
    D．Laughter is the best medicine.

    I was working with a client who was completely burned out on her career and life and then ready for a career change. As we were talking, she said, “I just wish I had meaningful work. I don’t feel like I am making a difference. I am just wasting my life.” This is the theme I hear most often from clients who have been in the workforce awhile.All of us want to feel like we are making a difference. We want to believe our work means something. The problem comes in defining “meaningful work”. What is it? That answer is different for everyone. For some meaningful work might be helping others organize their office. For others it may mean making a million dollars.
    What really matters is how you see it. What is meaningful work to you? Take out a piece of paper and answer these questions. How do you define meaningful work? When do you feel like you are really making a difference? What work have you done so far that feels the most meaningful? Write down whatever comes to mind.
    What you want to do is meaningful. It is very easy to start judging yourself as being selfish. Stop! Allow yourself to be honest. The fact is when Picasso painted; he was doing it because he liked to paint. He was not thinking, “Oh, I hope this brings joy to others’ lives.” He painted because he wanted to. When Beethoven composed, he did it because he loved music. Even scientists searching for a cure for cancer are immersed in their work because it fascinates them.
    Don’t look down on your work. It is easy to downplay the importance of work that feels meaningful. I remember Tony Robbins told a story of talking with the owner of a major company. The man said to Tony, “I wish I could do what you do because it makes such adifference in people’s lives”. Tony said, “You have got to be kidding! Look at what adifference you make. You provide work, health insurance and security for thousands ofpeople!” Don’t underestimate the value you provide.
    Take a look at what you have written about meaningful work. Do you see any themes? How do you wish to contribute to this world? Whatever you choose, remember that the greatest gift you can give is to find work that makes you feel fulfilled and delighted. Respect your preference because giving your gifts to the world, whatever they look like, is the most meaningful action you can ever take.
    小题1:. What does the writer mean by mentioning the famous people?
    A．Famous people are selfish to start work for themselves.
    B．Doing meaningful work requires our interest in it.
    C．Interest is the best teacher in learning.
    D．Honesty makes for the greatest people.
    小题2:. When you downplay the value of your work, you tend to think it is ______.
    A．quite differentB．very successfulC．not meaningfulD．less important
    小题3:.According to the passage, what meaningful job does the writer advise us to take?
    A．The one which is popular in society.
    B．The one which brings you profits.
    C．The one which wins you fame.
    D．The one which interests you.
    小题4:. The article is intended to ________.
    A．explain what is the most important in changing one’s job
    B．advise taking an immediate action to find meaningful work
    C．suggest we should show confidence and talent in work
    D．tell us the problem that the author’s client met

    Joanne was stuck in a traffic jam in central Birmingham at 5：30 and at 6：30 she was expected to be chairing a meeting of the tennis club. At last, the traffic was moving. She swung quickly racing to her house. As she opened the door, she nearly tripped over (被绊倒)Sheba.
    “Hey, Sheba,” she said, “I've got no time for you now, but I'll take you out as soon as I get back from tennis club.” Then she noticed Sheba seemed to be coughing or choking. Obviously, she could hardly breathe. Immediately, Joanne realized she would have to take her to the vet (兽医).
    When she got there, the vet was just about to close for the day. Seeing the state of Sheba, Dr. Sterne brought her quickly into his office.
    “Listen, doctor, I'm really in a rush to get to a meeting, can I leave her with you, and go and get changed? I'll be back in ten minutes to pick her up, and then I'll take her on to the meeting with me. Is that OK?”
    “Sure.” said the doctor.
    Joanne made the quick trip back to her house in a couple of minutes. As she was once more entering the hallway, the phone by the door began to ring.
    “This is Dr. Sterne,” said an anxious voice. “I want you to get out of that house immediately, ”said the doctor's voice. “I'm coming round right away, and the police will be there any time now. Wait outside!”
    At that moment, a police car screeched (发出尖锐的声音)to a stop outside the house. Two policemen got out and ran into the house. Joanne was by now completely confused and very frightened. Then the doctor arrived.
    “Where’s Sheba? Is she OK?” shouted Joanne.
    “She’s fine, Joanne. I took out the thing which was choking her, and she’s OK now. ”
    Just then, the two policemen reappeared from the house, half-carrying a white—faced man, who could hardly walk. There was blood all over him.
    “My God, ” said Joanne,  “how did he get in there? And how did you know he was there?”
    “I think he must be a burglar.” said the doctor. “I knew he was there because when I finally removed what was stuck in Sheba’s throat：it turned out to be three human fingers.”
    小题1:. What was Joanne supposed to do at 6：30？
    A．To walk her dog.B．To see her doctor.
    C．To attend a club meeting.D．To play tennis with her friends.
    小题2:. Joanne wanted to get back to her home again           .
    A．to dress up for the meetingB．to phone the police station
    C．to catch the badly hurt burglarD．to wait for her dog to be cured
    小题3:. From the passage, we can infer that         .
    A．Sheba fought against the burglar
    B．the police found the burglar had broken in
    C．Joanne had planned to take her dog to the meeting
    D．the doctor performed a difficult operation on the dog
    小题4:. In this passage, the writer intends to tell us that the dog is           .
    A．cleverB．friendlyC．frightening D．devoted
    小题5:．The underlined word a burglar in the last paragraph probably means ________.

    I hated dinner parties. But I decided to give them another shot because I'm in London. And my friend Mallery invited me. And because dinner parties in London are very different from those back in New York. There, “I’m having a dinner party” means: "I'm booking a table for 12 at a restaurant you can't afford and we'll be sharing the checque evenly, no matter what you eat." Worse, in Manhattan there is always someone who leaves before the bill arrives. They'll throw down cash, half of what they owe, and then people like me, who don’t drink, end up paying even more. But if I try to use the same trick, the hostess will shout: "Where are you going?" And it's not like I can say I have somewhere to go: everyone know I have nowhere to go.
    But in London, dinner parties are in people's homes. Not only that, the guests are an interesting mix. The last time I went to one, the guests were from France, India. Denmark and Nigeria; it was like a gathering at the United Nations in New York. The mix is less striking. It's like a gathering at Bloomingdale's, a well-known department store.
    For New Yorkers, talking about other parts of the world means Brooklyn and Queens in New York. But at Mallery's, when I said that I had been to Myanmar recently, people knew where it was. In New York people would think it was a usual new club.
    小题1:What does the word "shot" in Paragraph 1 probably mean?
    A．Choice.B．TryC．Style.D．Goal
    小题2:What does the writer dislike most about dinner parties in New York?
    A There is a strange mix of people.       B. The restaurants are expensive.
    C. The bill is not fairly shared.        D. People have to pay cash
    小题3:What does the author think of the parties in London?
    A．A bit unusualB．Full of tricks.
    C．Less costly.D．More interesting.
    小题4: What is the author's opinion of some New Yorkers from her experience？
    A．Easy-going.B．Self-centred.C． Generous.D．Conservative.

    One hot night last July, when our new baby wouldn’t or couldn’t sleep, I tried everything I could think of : a warm bottle, songs gentle rocking. Nothing would settle him down. Guessing that I would have a long night ahead of me, I brought a portable (便携式)TV into his room, figuring that watching the late movie was as good a way as any to kill off the hours till dawn. To my surprise, as soon as the TV lit up, the baby quieted right now, his little eyes focused brightly on the tube. Not to waste an opportunity for sleep, I then walked out of the room, leaving him to watch the actors celebrate John Bellushi's forty-fifth birthday.
    My wife and I heard no more of the baby that night, and the next morning when I went into his room, I found him still watching TV himself. I found in my baby's a metaphor（启示）for the new generation. My wife and I had given him some books to examine, but he merely spit upon them. When we read to him, he did not feel comfortable. And so it is in the schools. We find that our students don't read , that they look down upon reading and scold those of us who teach it. All they want to do is watching TV.
    After this experience with the baby, however, I have reached a conclusion: “Let them watch it!” If television is that much more attractive to children than books, why should we fight it? Let them watch it all they want!
    小题1:
    Father brought a TV set into his son's room____.     
    A．to stop his son crying B．to let him learn something
    C．to make him frightenedD．to let his son spend a good night
    小题2:
    To the couple’s surprise the boy ___after they brought a TV set into his room.
    A．soon fell asleepB．cried all that night
    C．became quiet and silent D．slept quite well that night
    小题3:
    Form the last paragraph we know that the writer thinks it____.
    A．terrible for children to watch so many TV programmes
    B．useless for parents to blame their children
    C．necessary for TV stations to improve their TV programmes
    D．favorable for children to watch the programmes they like
