Still 19 ,the complaints continued on a daily basis—well after the first day. We walked “too loudly”down the stairs, we laughed too often, we opened and closed the door too many times…They had many 20 to complain.
Nobody can stand the endless complaints and quarrels. I soon learned that they had 21 the last few families who lived above them by the same way. So I had the information I needed and I tried to 22 every situation carefully.
I tried to walk in 23 to avoid any possible noises. Whenever they called 24 came to the door with a complaint, no matter how unreasonable, I simply listened. From their confused expressions, I could imagine that they had never expected to get a 25 attitude from me.
Of course, it was hard to keep calm but my sister and I 26 . I told my sister that we were going to be pleasant and 27 them to change their attitude to neighbors. I explained to her that they probably felt 28 in their lives because they are common people. 29 , they were always looking for a 30 to show their power so that nobody could look down upon them. I continued smiling and greeting them as I saw them, much to their 31 .On more than one occasion(不止一次), I ended up 32 them. They thanked me before they left.
Unexpectedly, the next time I saw them, they all smiled and 33 friendly. We had a short but pleasant 34 . Ever since then, they’ve been very pleasant neighbors, and we’ve become good 35 .

There was a time in my life when beauty meant something special to me. I guess that would have been when I was about six or seven ye ars old, just several weeks or maybe a month before the orphanage turned me into an old man.
I would get up every morning at the orphanage, make my bed just like the little soldier that I had become and then I would get into one of the two straight lines and march to breakfast with the other twenty or thirty boys who also lived in my dormitory.
After breakfast one Saturday morning I returned to the dormitory and saw the house parent chasing the beautiful monarch butterflies who lived by the hundreds in the azalea (杜鹃花) bushes strewn around the orphanage.
I carefully watched as he caught these beautiful creatures, one after the other, and then took them from the net and then stuck straight pins through their head and wings, pinning them onto a heavy cardboard sheet.
How cruel it was to kill something of such beauty. I had walked many times out into the bushes, all by myself, just so the butterflies could land on my head, face and hands so I could look at them up close.
Every year when the butterflies would return to the orphanage and try to land on me I would try and shoo (用"嘘"声赶走,吓走)them away because they did not know that the orphanage was a bad place to live and a very bad place to die.
1. According to the passage, how did the author find the orphanage?
A. A favorable place to live. B. A bad place to live.
C. A comfortable place for butterflies. D. A favorable place for the old.
2. How did the people go to their meals?
A. By car. B. On foot. C. Queuing in two ways. D. Any way they wanted.
3. Which of the following statements is TRUE, according to the passage?
A. I love everything of beauty when I was old.
B. The people in the orphanage stand in line doing everything.
C. The azalea bushes were planted by the people living in the orphanage.
D. I shooed the butterflies away because I didn’t want them to be killed.
4. What can we infer from the first two paragraphs?
A. I love beauty when I was about six or seven years old.
B. I became old very soon in the orphanage.
C. I had a very pleasant time in the orphanage.
D. I was tired with the life the way I lived in the orphanage.

In ancient Egypt, the pharaoh（法老） treated the poor message runner like a prince when he arrived at the palace, if he brought good news. However, if the exhausted runner had the misfortune to bring the pharaoh unhappy news, his head was cut off.
Shades of that spirit spread over today’s conversations. Once a friend and I packed up some peanut butter and sandwiches for an outing. As we walked light-heartedly out the door, picnic basket in hand, a smiling neighbor looked up at the sky and said, “Oh boy, bad day for a picnic. The weatherman says it’s going to rain.” I wanted to strike him on the race with the peanut butter and sandwiches. Not for his stupid weather report, for his smile.
Several months ago I was racing to catch a bus. As I breathlessly put my handful of cash across the Greyhound counter, the sales agent said with a broad smile, “Oh that bus left rive minutes ago.” Dreams of head-cutting!
It’s not the news that makes someone angry. It’s the unsympathetic attitude with which it’s delivered. Everyone must give bad mews from time to time, and winning professionals do it with the proper attitude. A. doctor advising a patient that she needs an operation dose it in a caring way A. boss informing an employee he didn’t get the job takes on a sympathetic tone. Big winners know, when delivering any bad news, they should share the feeling of the receiver.
Unfortunately, many people are not aware of this. When you’re tired from a long flight, has a hotel clerk cheerfully said that your room isn’t ready ye? When you had your heart set on the toast beef, has your waiter merrily told you that he just served the last piece? It makes you as traveler or diner want to land your fist right on their unsympathetic faces.
Had my neighbor told me of the upcoming rainstorm with sympathy, I would have appreciated his warning. Had the Greyhound salesclerk sympathetically informed me that my bus had already left, I probably would have said, “Oh, that’s all right. I’ll catch the next one.” Big winners, when they bear bad news, deliver bombs with the emotion the bombarded （被轰炸的） person is sure to have .
1.In Paragraph 1, the writer tells the story of the pharaoh to .
A. make a comparison B. introduce a topic C. describe a scene D. offer an argument
2.In the writer’s opinion, his neighbor was _____________.
A. friendly B. warm-hearted C. not considerate D. not helpful

A. was mad at the sales agent.
B. was reminded of the cruel pharaoh
