    Wherever in the world you’re reading this right now, you will be aware of just how mixed modern society has become in terms of race. Within the UK, mixed-raced children are the largest   1  ethnic minority. Bringing home a partner of a different   2  to yourself is no longer viewed as, “strange” or “different” in a lot of families. When Joseph brought home Hari, the   3  that she was of Indian parentage was never even talked about — she made him happy. They made each other happy. And that was all that   4 .
    But the reason why they were together for 11 years before they got   5  is that Hari was afraid of telling her   6  about the person that she’d fallen in love with. She was afraid of the consequences it would   7  for her younger sisters. Would they be packed off to India? Would they end up in arranged   8  they may not want? At 22 years old, when she first fell in love with him — it was a large burden to   9 .
    But she loved him, and   10  they moved in together… and then bought a house by the Brighton coast, where they have   11  for almost 8 years. All the while her parents didn’t know. Her sisters did, and they too loved Joseph — they   12  him as the brother they’d never had.
    But after nine years together, she finally had to tell her father (her mother   13  away a few years ago). We were on tenderhooks（惶恐不安）the weekend she went up North to tell him.
    It was emotional and as a family we were worried. Hari had been   14  of our family for so long, we felt for her. We knew how   15  it would be. She loved her father, but knew this would hurt him, who was a very traditional Sikh man.

    A man had a little daughter—an only and much-loved child. He lived ___21__ her—she was his life. So when she became ill, he became like a man moving 22 and earth to bring about her restoration to  23  .
    　　His best efforts,  24 , proved 25 and the child died. The father became a bitter loner, 26  himself away from his many friends and refusing every   27 that might restore his calm and bring him back to his normal self. But one night he had a   28  .
    　　He was in heaven,  29 a grand presentation of all the little child angels. They were  30  in a line passing by the Great White Throne. Every white-robed angelic child  31 a candle. He noticed that one child’s candle was not lighted. Then he saw that the child with the  32 candle was his own little girl. 33 to her, he seized her in his arms,  34  her tenderly, and then asked, “ 35 is it, darling, that your candle alone is unlighted?”“Daddy, they often relight it, but your tears always  36 .”
    　Just then he awoke from his dream. The lesson was clear, and its effects were  37 . From that hour on he was not a loner, but associated freely and 38  with his former friends and colleagues. 39 would his darling’s candle be extinguished(熄灭) by his  40  tears.

    Tim Richter and his wife, Linda, had taught for over 30 years near Buffalo, New York--he in computers, she in special education. "Teaching means everything to us," Tim would say. In April1998, he learned he would need a heart operation. It was the kind of news that leads to some serious thinking about life's purpose.
    Not long after the surgery, Tim saw a brochure describing Imagination Library, a program started by Dolly Parton' s foundation (基金会) that mailed a book every month to children from birth to age five in the singer's home town of Sevier, Tennessee.“I thought, maybe Linda and I could do something like this when we retire," Tim recalls.  He placed the brochure on his desk, "as a reminder."
    Five years later, now retired and with that brochure still on the desk, Tim clicked on imagination library .com. The program had been opened up to partners who could take advantage of book and postage discounts.
    The quality of the books was of great concern to the Richters. Rather than sign up online, they went to Dollywood for a look-see. “We didn’t want to give the children rubbish,” says Linda. The books-reviewed each year by teachers, literacy specialists and Dollywood board members-included classics such as Ezra Jack Keats’s The Snowy Day and newer books like Anna Dewdney’s Llama Llama series.
    Satisfied, the couple set up the Richter Family Foundation and got to work. Since 2004, they have shipped more than 12,200 books to preschoolers in their in their area. Megan Williams, a mother of four, is more than appreciative: “This program introduces us to books I’ve never heard of .”
    The Richters spend about ＄400 a month sending books to 200 children. “Some people sit there and wait to die,” says Tim. “Others get as busy as they can in the time they have left.”
    小题1:
    What led Tim to think seriously about the meaning of life?
    A．His health problem.B．His love for teaching.
    C．The influence of his wife.D．The news from the Web.
    小题2:
    What did Tim want to do after learning about Imagination Library?
    A．Give out brochures.B．Do something similar.
    C．Write books for childrenD．Retire from being a teacher.
    小题3:
    According to the text, Dollly Parton is           .
    A．a well-known surgeonB．a mother of a four-year-old
    C．a singer born in TennesseeD．a computer programmer
    小题4:
    Why did the Richters go to Dollywood?
    A．To avoid signing up online.
    B．To meet Dollywood board members.
    C．To make sure the books were the newest.
    D．To see if the books were of good quality.
    小题5:
    What can we learn from Tim’s words in the last paragraph?
    A．He needs more money to help the children.
    B．He wonders why some people are so busy.
    C．He tries to save those waiting to die.
    D．Hconsiders his efforts worthwhile.

    My husband and I went into a shop that sold handcrafted items in hopes of finding a few last-minute Christmas gifts.
    There was a lot  36  . Every shelf and   37 was loaded with different crafters' handiwork. As I walked through the store, I noticed a wooden plaque(瓷花金属板) hanging on a wall. I turned to take  38  look and remember shaking my head "yes" at   39  printed on the plaque.

    Looking at the plaque, I found myself  44  to a hot and muggy day the summer before, when I unknowingly   45 the plaque's message. Light rain continued to fall as I walked out to get my mail. Water was still running   46  through the gutters（屋顶檐槽）. I don't know what came over me,  47 I suddenly felt forced to do something a little crazy   48 my fifty-plus years.
    I   49 my shoes and stockings and began walking barefoot through the water. It was deliciously   50 , heated by the pavement that had been   51 by the summer heat.
    I'm sure my neighbors thought that I had   52 my last vestige of sanity（神智健全）, but I didn't care. For in that moment, I was alive. I wasn't worried about bills, the future or any other day-to-day cares. I was   53 a gift — a pure and simple moment of joy!
    The plaque now hangs in my living room, a Christmas gift from my husband. I walk past it multiple times each day and  54  pause to ask myself, "So, am I   55 in the rain?"
    I think I am. I know I try to. One step at a time, I am learning to dance in the rain!

    When we think about giving help to developing countries, we often think about giving money so that these countries can build schools and hospitals, buy food and medicine, or find clean water supplies. These seem to be the most important basic needs of the people we are trying to help. However, it's far from enough. Ladies and gentlemen, we've got to come up with some better ideas to help them.
    I was very surprised, then, when I read about a plan to make cheap laptop computers for children in developing countries. A man called Nicholas Negroponte invented a cheap laptop computer and he planed to produce a lot and sell them to the children in developing countries at a low price after he visited a school in Cambodia. The laptop will be covered in rubber so that it is very strong and won't be damaged easily. The idea is that these computers will help the children's education as they will be able to surf the Internet. By improving children's education they should help people to find their own solutions to their problems in the long term.
    Another idea to help children in developing countries is to recycle old mobile phones so that they can be used again. In the UK, and probably in many other countries too, millions of mobile phones are thrown away every year. The waste created by throwing away these old phones is very bad for the environment, so it seems to be an excellent idea to recycle them. In this way we will be able to achieve two important goals at the same time. We will reduce the waste we produce and help others. In other words, we will be able to 'kill two birds with one stone’, and that is always a good thing.
    小题1:
    It's an excellent idea to recycle old mobile phones because        .
    A．it reduces waste and can help others
    B．it prevents waste and can earn lots of money
    C．it can send the waste produced by developed countries to other countries
    D．it is good for the environment and very educative for phone users
    小题2:
    The author gives the example of Mr. Negroponte’s cheap computers        .
    A．to show what high technology can bring us
    B．to show the kindness of people in the developed countries
    C．to show how to find business opportunities in developing countries
    D．to give an example of how to help developing countries
    小题3:
    Where does this passage probably come from?        .
    A．A newspaper.B．A magazine.
    C．A lecture.D．An advertisement.

    Do you want to have a lot of close friends? In order to make it happen, you must do a lot of things right. You will learn tips on how to build a solid friendship.
    You should be extra respectful when you are at others’ homes. For example, you must not make unpleasant comments about them. Once when I was at the house of a friend as a high school senior, I told him he had feet that looked funny while he had his socks off in his bedroom. He rebutted(反驳),“If you’re going to make fun of my feet, you can leave.’’
    You must be a person of your word. For example, if you say you will do something for or with your friend, you must follow up on it.
    You must respect people other than your friends.This includes respecting your friends’ family members and being polite to others in general.
    It is helpful to be supportive. You should try to provide help when your friends need it.
    You should understand them. Even if you do not agree with some of the things they do, you should show an understanding of why they do them and offer advice while avoiding telling them they are at fault for their problems.
    You must be caring. You must put care into the things you do for them and show concern for their troubles.

    Lots of people have hobbies. Some people collect old coins or foreign stamps; some do needlework; others spend most of their spare time on a particular sport.
    A lot of people enjoy reading. But reading tastes differ widely. Some people only read newspapers or comics, some like reading novels, while others prefer books on astronomy, wildlife, or technological discoveries.
    If I happen to be interested in horses or precious stones, I cannot expect everyone else to share my enthusiasm. If I watch all the sports programs on TV with great pleasure, I must put up with the fact that other people find sports boring.
    Is there nothing that interests us all? Is there nothing that concerns everyone—no matter who they are or where they live in the world? Yes, dear Sophie, there are questions that certainly should interest everyone. They are precisely the questions this course is about.
    What is the most important thing in life? If we ask someone living on the edge of starvation, the answer is food. If we ask someone dying of cold, the answer is warmth. If we put the same question to someone who feels lonely and isolated, the answer will probably be the company of other people.
    But when these basic needs have been satisfied—will there still be something that everybody needs? Philosophers think so. They believe that man cannot live by bread alone. Of course everyone needs food. And everyone needs love and care. But there is something else—apart from that—which everyone needs, and that is to figure out who we are and why we are here.
    Being interested in why we are here is not a “casual” interest like collecting stamps. People who ask such questions are taking part in a debate that has gone on as long as man has lived on this planet. How the universe, the earth, and life came into being is a bigger and more important question than who won the most gold medals in the last Olympics.
    小题1: This text is most probably taken from __________. 
    A．a research paperB．a course schedule
    C．a personal letterD．a book review
    小题2: Which of the following best states the main idea of the passage?
    A．Philosophical questions are as interesting as collecting stamps.
    B．Thinking about philosophical questions is a serious interest.
    C．Figuring out who we are and why we are here is man’s basic needs.
    D．Philosophy has universal appeal and concerns everybody in nature.
    小题3: The author believes that __________.
    A．no existing subject can interest everyone in the world
    B．different people may have different interests and concerns
    C．everyone has to figure out who we are and why we are here
    D．people in modern society pay more attention to philosophical questions

    Walking down a path through some woods in Georgia, I saw a small pool of water ahead on the path. I angled my direction to go around it on the part of the path that wasn't covered by water or mud. As I reached the pool, I was suddenly attacked! Yet I did nothing for the attack. It was so unpredictable and from somewhere totally unexpected. I was surprised as well as unhurt though I had been struck four or five times. I backed up a foot and my attacker stopped attacking me. Had I been hurt I wouldn't have found it amusing. And I was laughing. After all, I was being attacked by a butterfly!
    Having stopped, laughing, I took a step forward. My attacker rushed me again. He charged towards me at full speed, attempting to hurt me but in vain. For a second time, I took a step backwards while my attacker paused. I wasn't sure what to do. After all, it's just not everyday that one is attacked by a butterfly. I stepped back to look the situation over. My attacker moved back to land on the ground. That's when I discovered why my attacker was charging me only moments earlier. He had a mate and she was dying.
    Sitting close beside her, he opened and closed his wings as if to fan her. I could only admire the love and courage of that butterfly in his concern for his mate. He had taken it up on himself to attack me for his mate's sake （缘故）, even though she was clearly dying and I was so large. He did so just to give her those extra few precious moments of life, should I have been careless enough to step on her. His courage in attacking something thousands of times larger and heavier than himself just for his mate's safety seemed admirable. I couldn't do anything other than reward him by walking on the more difficult side of the pool. He had truly earned those moments to be with her, undisturbed.     
    Since then, I've always tried to remember the courage of that butterfly whenever I see huge barriers facing me.
    小题1:Why did the writer change his direction while walking down a path?
    A．To get close to a butterfly.B．To look over the bad situation.
    C．To escape a sudden attack.D．To avoid getting his shoes dirty.
    小题2:What made the man feel funny?
    A．Making the attacker pause.B．Being attacked by a butterfly.
    C．Being stepped on by his mate.D．Discovering the energetic butterfly.
    小题3:From this experience the man learned       .
    A．what he should do when faced with trouble
    B．people should show sympathy to the weak
    C．how he should deal with attacks
    D．people should protect butterflies
    小题4: Which of the following words can best describe the butterfly?
    A．Careless.B．Amusing.C．Courageous. D．Aggressive.
