A BMW car 46 on the other side of the street and a gentleman who was perfectly dressed stepped out of the car.He was probably about 47 years old.He was wearing a blue business suit with a deep red silk tie.He walked 48 across the street and over to the homeless man.Without saying anything, he first gave him a lot of 49 and then he sat down and took off his leather gloves( 手套), beautiful black leather shoes and his black dress socks.Then he 50 them to the homeless man.The homeless man took them and stared with a/an 51 mouth.
As he drove off, I couldn’t 52 thinking that it was probably the first time he had 53 the pedal( 踏板)of that top-brand BMW car with a 54 foot! I stood there and the looks of 55 appeared on my face and the homeless man’s.
Two men of about the same age 56 very different lives had met and the one who was 57 in materials had offered 58 than his shoes.He had left this BMW car and 59 down from his high position.He lifted up the other man when he offered respect, 60 and real generosity.

What makes a gift special? Is it the price you see on the gift receipt? Or is it the look on the recipient's face when they receive it that determines the true value? What gift is worth the most?
This Christmas I was debating what to give my father. My dad is a hard person to buy for because he never wants anything. I pulled out my phone to read a text message from my mom saying that we were leaving for Christmas shopping for him when I came across a message on my phone that I had locked. The message was from my father. My eyes fell on a photo of a flower taken in Wyoming. and underneath a poem by William Blake. The flower, a lone dandelion standing against the bright blue sky, inspired me. My dad had been reciting those words to me since I was a kid. That may even be the reason why I love writing. I decided that those words would be my gift to my father.
I called back. I told my mom to go without me and that I already created my gift. I sent the photo of the cream-colored flower to my computer and typed the poem on top of it. As I was arranging the details another poem came to mind. The poem was written by Edgar Allan Poe; my dad recited it as much as he did the other. I typed that out as well and searched online for a background to the words of it. The poem was focused around dreaming, and after searching I found the perfect picture. The image was painted with blues and greens and purples, twisting together to create the theme and wonder of a dream. As I watched both poems passing through the printer, the white paper coloring with words that shaped my childhood. I felt that this was a gift that my father would truly appreciate.
Christmas soon arrived. The minute I saw the look on my dad's face as he unwrapped those swirling black letters carefully placed in a cheap frame, I knew I had given the perfect gift.

科目:高中英语 来源:2013届江西省九江一中高三上学期第三次月考英语试卷(带解析) 题型:阅读理解
阅读表达 (满分 10 分)
(1)The half-empty coffee cups, still standing next to their plates, tell of a morning like others. And yet, that grey covering of dust that everything wears tells a different story: it tells of screams, tears, confusion, terror and blood.
(2)Now the restaurant in the World Trade Center will never again serve breakfast. And never again will all those people go there to eat or work --- those people of America whose faces have entered our hearts. So many people whose faces we associate with life and liveliness _______ tonight. So many words remain unsaid, and so much happiness has been destroyed. In their places are tear-stained faces. My generation has seen this. On Monday, a fight with my sister and a bad grade seemed to be the biggest problems in the world. Tonight, so many people across the country know that America’s pain is at its worst ever. We have read about World War II, and we have seen the black-and-white pictures. But to most students, that’s an event on a textbook page that would never happen today.
(3) After all, this was a time of peace and wealth --- the United States was powerful and successful. There would be no more wars, and we were lucky to live in such a time. But when those planes hit; when firefighters with terror on their faces ran among the parts of the buildings that had fallen; when people screamed for their family members; when history was unfolding before our eyes, in full, clear colour ---- then we knew the world had been changed.
(4) Everything that had happened in the past seemed to take on new life through September 11, 2001. And when they say this is the worst wound in American soil, I say, I thought this place was an empire. And I say, I thought this was a time of peace. And I say, I thought we were safe.
(5) Knowing how many human beings turned to ashes in a second, and seeing some jumps from the buildings, I know that my generation is growing up in a world where mankind can still be evil. But seeing those heroes risk lives among the castle-like ruins, and seeing the eager blood donors at the hospitals, my generation has learned that tears are allowed, that mankind can also be beautiful, and that the ghost of evil will never defeat the spirit of good.
【小题1】Why was the passage written? (no more than 7 words)
【小题2】List two things that make the writer believe the world is still beautiful. (no more than 15 words)
【小题3】What does the underlined word “it” refer to? (no more than 8 words)
【小题4】Fill in the blank with proper words. (no more than 3 words)
【小题5】What event of the past did September 11 remind the writer of? (no more than 5 words)
