    One day, when I was in college, a dishonest-looking character approached me in the student union with a leather jacket he wanted to sell. It was a beauty: buttery smooth cowskin, with artfully sewed lines and long leather fringes (穗).
    I can’t remember what the price was, but it was apparently too little for such a jacket. Even as I paid the money that day, I knew something wasn’t right. Surely, a couple of days later, the jacket’s real owner, a student about my age came to me as I was on my way to class.
    “That’s my jacket,” he said, “and I want it back.”
    “No way,” I answered. “I paid for it, and I have no idea if it’s yours. It’s mine.”
    He didn’t challenge me, and I left, but the uneasiness(不安) I had about my new possession now had a visible face. A few days later, riding my bike across campus, I saw the real owner standing on the sidewalk. I rode over, took the jacket off, handed it to him said I was sorry, and rode off without another word. More than the weight of the jacket had been lifted from my shoulders.
    We’re all human, which means that sometimes we do things we shouldn’t do or say things we shouldn’t say. Sometimes we realize too late that our actions have been hurtful to somebody else. When these hard times occur, the best response --- the only response, really --- is, “I’m sorry.”
    Admitting a wrongdoing, as soon as possible and frankly, helps the other person begin to heal. But just as important, it cleans up our own soul and sets us free.
    That is a small price to pay for a clear conscience.
    小题1:The author bought the leather jacket from the man in the student union because ______   .
    A．it was charged at a reasonable price
    B．it was a very attractive jacket
    C．he was in great need of clothing
    D．he was happy to find such a bargain
    小题2:The phrase “had a visible face” in the passage probably implies（暗含） “______  ”.
    A．started to bother me badly
    B．might be clearly expressed
    C．began to give me away openly
    D．could be instantly melting away
    小题3:Giving the leather jacket back to the real owner, the author ______    .
    A．offered his forgivenessB．felt very much relieved
    C．rode away unwillinglyD．realized his wrongdoing
    小题4:What is the author’s purpose of this writing?
    A．To encourage the readers to admit errors honestly.
    B．To show the readers the reality of his college life.
    C．To give the readers a lesson on how to say sorry to others.
    D．To tell the readers a story that once happened at college.

    My favorite English teacher could draw humor out of the driest material. It wasn’t forced on us either. He took Samuel Johnson’s dictionary, Addison’s essays, and many other literary wonders from the eighteenth century and made them hilarious, even at eight o’clock in the morning. The thing that amazed me most was that the first time I read these works on my own, some of them seemed dead, but the second time, after his explanation, I couldn’t believe that I hadn’t seen the humor. The stories and poems and plays were suddenly filled with allusions(典故) and irony and hilarious moments. I learned more from him than from any other teacher.
    My least favorite English teacher also made people laugh. Some students found him to be wonderfully funny. Many others did not. He assigned journals over a six-week period, to be written every day. At the end of the six weeks I had a notebook full of bits and pieces about my ideas, short stories, reactions to what we had read, and so on. Our teacher announced that we would be grading each other’s journals. Mine was passed to Joe, that class clown, who always behaved in a funny or silly way. He saw it fit to make a joke of and said, “This writing isn’t fit to line the bottom of a birdcage.” Our teacher laughed at that funny remark. It hurt me so much that the anger from it has driven my writing and teaching ever since.
    So what makes the difference? Humor is one of the most powerful tools teachers or writers have. It can build up students and classes and make them excited about literature and writing, or it can tear them apart. It is true that humor is either productive or counter-productive and self-defeating.
    小题1:The passage mainly discusses ________.
    A．teachingB．literatureC．humorD．knowledge
    小题2:The underlined word “hilarious” in Paragraph 1 probably means ________.
    A．funnyB．tiringC．inspiringD．brilliant
    小题3:The English teacher the writer disliked most ________.
    A．was not able to make students laughB．hurt his student’s feelings
    C．didn’t let his students do the gradingD．had no sense of humor

    That year, in the local school, there was a new math teacher, as well as some new pupils. One of the new kids was the stupidest child that anyone had ever seen. It made no difference how quickly or how slowly they tried explaining numbers to him; he would always end up saying something enormously stupid. Like two plus two was five, seven times three was twenty-seven, or a triangle had thirty corners...
    Before this boy arrived, math lessons had been the most boring of all. Now they were great fun. Encouraged by the new teacher, the children would listen to the pieces of nonsense spouted by the new kid, and they would have to correct his mistakes.
    Whenever the new teacher asked questions, the stupid kid would stand up but made the wrong answers, the other students all wanted to be the first to find his mistakes, and then think up the most original ways to explain them. To do this they used all kinds of stuff: sweets, playing cards, oranges, paper planes, etc. It didn't seem like any of this bothered the new kid.
    However，little Lewis was sure that it was bound to make him feel sad inside. Lewis was sure he would see him crying. So，one day, he decided to follow the new kid home after school. On leaving school, the new kid walked a few minutes to a local park, and there he waited for a while, until someone came along to meet him...
    It was the new teacher!
    The teacher gave the new kid a hug, and off they went, hand in hand. Following from a distance, Lewis could hear they were talking about math.
    小题1:The math lessons became interesting because of the new teacher's ______.
    A．creativityB．imaginationC．responsibilityD．curiosity

    A．was in great need of the math teacher's help after class
    B．was by no means slow in math
    C．had no gift for math and was slow to learn it
    D．disliked both the new math teacher and his lessons
    小题3:According to the passage, Lewis followed the stupid kid in order to ______.
    A．learn about where he livedB．find out if he felt upset
    C．say something to comfort himD．make friends with him

    Dear Mr. Watson,
    CLAIM AL54323432–-STORM DAMAGE TO ROOF
    I received a cheque for $623 dated 26 January in payment of my recent claim(索赔). However, I wish to tell you how upset I have been by the way your Claims Assessor, Mr. Michael Tan, handled this claim.
    When Mr. Tan first called me, he specifically told me that he believed I had been overcharged, and he would expect to pay that price for work on a double garage, rather than a single garage like mine. Mr. Tan suggested that I neither use nor recommend this contractor again. He continued to tell me it was unlikely for me to receive full payment. Never during this conversation did he mention that the reason for not receiving full payment was because of the nature of my insurance policy.
    Consequently, I wrote to Mr. Lance Ashe to complain about his pricing, stating that I was very upset thinking that he could have taken advantage by overcharging a 73-year-old woman. Mr. Ashe telephoned me immediately and explained his charges in detail. He later reported back to me that Mr. Tan explained that I would not receive full payment because of the type of policy I hold, which does not cover wear and tear. This was the first time this issue had been brought to my attention, so you can imagine my surprise.
    When I received Mr. Tan’s letter of 2 February, this situation was explained. If this had been explained in the first place I would have accepted it and would not have questioned Mr. Ashe’s charges. Instead, by telling me initially that I had been overcharged for this work, he caused a great deal of upset, not only for me but also for Mr. Ashe.
    I believed this claim was handled badly by Mr. Tan from the beginning. Therefore, a great deal of embarrassment has been caused over this issue.
    I felt you should know how disappointed and upset I am. I trust you will look into this and ensure that such claims are handled more appropriately in the future.
    Yours sincerely,
    Mrs. Richard
    小题1:The author writes this letter to ______.
    A．inform the manager of a payment
    B．complain about a mishandled case
    C．demand an apology from Mr. Watson
    D．require the manager to fire Mr. Tan
    小题2:The underlined words “the contractor” in Para.2 refer to ______.
    A．Mr. TanB．Mrs. RichardC．Mr. AsheD．Mr. Watson
    小题3:The author could not receive full payment because _______.
    A．her policy doesn’t cover some of the items
    B．the contractor overcharged her for the work
    C．Mr. Watson doesn’t take the matter seriously
    D．she spent too much money fixing her garage
    小题4:We can learn from the passage that Mr. Tan works in a/an _______.
    A．welfare organizationB．nursing house
    C．local affairs officeD．insurance company
