__22__ off the rain like a wet dog,I entered Mr.Rader's office.After a quick glance he __23__ me over to the fireplace.Noticing the __24__ in the top of my __25__,he said,“Come with me!” pulling me into his truck.We __26__ before a shoe store.Inside,a salesman __27__ me with the finest pair of Oxfords I had __28__ seen.I felt about 10 feet tall when I got up __29__ them.“We'd like a pair of new socks too,” Mr.Rader said.

Back in his office,Mr.Rader took out a __30__,wrote something on it,and handed it to me.With tearful eyes,I read,“__31__ to others as you would have them do to you.”He said affectionately,“Jimmy,I want you to __32__ I love you.”

作者偶然翻开卡片,思绪回到从前,恩情永生难忘,世界如此温暖。一张卡片,一位好人,一段美好的人生回忆。

16.C 作者看到这张卡片后,把它“翻过来”去看卡片背面的内容。turn over表示“翻转”。

17.C 在卡片的背面,有草草的手写的“信息”,字都褪色了。message一般指口头传递的或书写的信息,是可数名词。D项通常指消息、情报、资料等,是不可数名词,故排除。

18.D 看到卡片上的内容,作者的思绪立刻“回”到了多年以前。

19.A 根据第二段最后一句中的“magazines”可知作者当时背着一包“杂志”。

20.B 作者当天转了几圈后,最终来到了那家公司。

21.D Mr.Rader总是把作者带到那里,“询问”他的员工是否想购买作者的杂志。

22.D 作者像一只落汤鸡一样“抖落”身上的雨水,走进了他的办公室。shake off“抖掉,甩掉”,符合语境。

23.B 他匆匆地看了一眼,发觉作者的窘况后,把作者“领”到壁炉旁。

24.A 本段的后半部分提到他为作者购买了一双新鞋,由此可推知他注意到了作者的鞋上有“洞”。

25.B 参见上题解析。

26.A 他们将车“停”在一家鞋店前。pull up“停车,停止”,符合题意。后三项分别表示“理解,吸收”、“开走”、“走近”,都不符合语境。

27.B 售货员给作者挑选了一双非常合适的鞋,此处fit用作动词,意为“使适合”。

28.C 这是作者“曾经”见到过的最好的一双牛津鞋。

29.D 作者穿上这双鞋站起来后,感觉自己大约有十英尺那么高,in them表示的是in the shoes。

30.C 文章第一段提到作者看到那张“卡片”后,思绪回到了从前,此处与之相呼应。

31.A 根据本句后半部分中的“do to you”可知此空应用Do。本句的意思是“己所不欲,勿施于人”。

32.B 他亲切地说:“吉米,我想让你知道我爱你。”

33.A 作者第一次“感觉到”希望的闪现,不管怎样,事情总会好起来的。

34.C 根据上文叙述的Mr.Rader帮助作者推销杂志以及给作者买鞋等可知他是一个非常善良的人。

35.D 世界上有了像Mr.Rader这样的人,就有了希望、善良和关爱,世界也会因此而不同。make a difference表示“有影响,起作用”。前三项分别表示“交易”、“财富”、“选择”,显然有悖文意。

               Motherhood is a career to respect

  A WOMAN renewing her driver’s license at the CountyClerk’s office was asked to state her occupation. She hesitated, uncertain how to classify herself.

  “What I mean is,” explained the recorder, “do you have a job, or are you just a...”

  “Of course I have a job,” said Emily. “I’m a mother.”

  “We don’t list ‘mother’ as an occupation... ‘housewife’ covers it,” said the recorder.

  One day I found myself in the same situation. The Clerk was obviously a career woman, confident and possessed of a high sounding title. “What is your occupation?” she asked.

  The words simply popped out. “I’m a Research Associate (研究员) in the field of Child Development and Human Relations.”

  The clerk paused, ballpoint pen frozen in midair.

  I repeated the title slowly, then I stared with wonder as my pronouncement (声明) was written in bold, black ink on the official questionnaire.

  “Might I ask,” said the clerk with interest, “just what you do in your field?”

  Coolly, without any trace of panic in my voice, I heard myself reply, “I have a continuing program of research (what mother doesn’t), in the laboratory and in the field (normally I would have said indoors and out). Of course, the job is one of the most demanding in the humanities (any mother care to disagree?), and I often work 14 hours a day (24 is more like it). But the job is more challenging than most careers and the rewards are more of a satisfaction rather than just money.”

  There was an increasing note of respect in the clerk’s voice as she completed the form, stood up, and showed me out.

  As I drove into our driveway, buoyed up (激励) by my glamorous new career, I was greeted by my lab assistants – ages 13, 7, and 3.

  Upstairs I could hear our new experimental model (a 6-month-old baby), in the child-development program, testing out a new vocal pattern.

  I felt proud! I had gone on the official records as someone more distinguished and indispensable (不可缺少的) to mankind than “just another mother.”

  Motherhood... What a glorious career! Especially when there’s a title on the door.

How did the female clerk feel at first when the writer told her occupation?

  A. Cold-hearted.    B. Open-minded.

  C. Puzzled.       D. Interested.

How many children does the writer have?

  A. 3    B. 4    C. 7    D. 13

Why did the woman clerk show more respect to the writer?

  A. Because she thought the writer did admirable work.

  B. Because the writer cared little about rewards.

  C. Because the writer did something that she had little knowledge of.

  D. Because she admired the writer's research work.

What is the point of the article?

  A. To show that how you describe your job affects your feelings toward it.

  B. To show that the writer had a grander job than Emily.

  C. To argue that motherhood is a worthy career.

  D. To show that being a mother is hard and boring work.
