    Driving to a friend's house on a recent evening, I was attracted by the sight of the full moon rising just above my friend’s rooftops. I stopped to watch it for a few moments, thinking about what a pity it was that most city people? Myself included? Usually miss sights like this because we spend most of our lives indoors.
    My friend had also seen it. He grew up living in a forest in Europe, and the moon meant a lot to him then. It had touched much of his life.
    I know the feeling. Last December I took my seven-year-old daughter to the mountainous jungle of northern India with some friends. We stayed in a forest rest-house with no electricity or running hot water. Our group had campfires(篝火) outside every night, and indoors when it was too cold outside. The moon grew to its fullest during our trip. Between me and the high mountains lay three or four valleys. Not a light shone in them and not a sound could be heard. It was one of the quietest places I have ever known, a bottomless well of silence. And above me was the full moon, which struck me deeply.　　  
    Today our lives are filled with glass, metal, plastic and fibre-glass. We have televisions, cell phones, pagers, electricity, heaters and ovens and air-conditioners, cars, computers.
    Struggling through traffic that evening at the end of a tiring day, most of it spent indoors, I thought: before long, I would like to live in a small cottage. There I will grow vegetables and read books and walk in the mountains. I may become an old man there, and wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled and measure out my life in coffee spoons. But I will be able to walk outside on a cold silent night and touch the moon.
    小题1:The best title for the passage would be______.
    A．Touched by the moon
    B．The pleasures of modern life
    C．A bottomless well of silence
    D．Break away from modern life

    B．he seldom enjoyed the fullest moon outsides
    C．he didn’t adapt to modern inventions
    D．there were too many accidents on the road
    小题3:What impressed the writer most in the mountainous jungle of northern India?
    A．No modern equipmentB．Complete silence.
    C．The nice moonlightD．The high mountains

    A．show that the writer likes city life very much
    B．tell us that people greatly benefit from modern life
    C．explain that people have fewer chances to enjoy nature
    D．show that we can also enjoy nature at home through them
    小题5: The author wrote the passage to_______.  
    A．express the feeling of returning to nature
    B．show the love for the moonlight
    C．advise modern people to learn to live

    A
    The choice to adopt and hold gratefulness is the one that is different from those who suffer misfortune and those who enjoy a full life.
    My mother died when I was 24. It was a very difficult time in my life — everything seemed to fall apart. I lost my job, and then my utilities were turned off. I had to take cold showers for six months. A neighbor who knew about my situation came to my house and made me an offer. I took care of her children as a job, and I no longer went hungry. I was surprised that someone would trust me — a young woman with her children. And it was with the very confidence that before long I began taking care of other people’s children, too. I have since moved 300 miles from Boise, Idaho. For more than 23 years I have made every effort to reach out to all the kind-hearted people who helped me when I was down and out. Without their trust, I don’t know what I would have done. I am very involved in my community and volunteer at the local food bank, and I help out whenever I can. I’d like to owe what I am to whoever has offered me generosity.
    If you are grateful for what you already have, the world will work together to give you more to be grateful for. Otherwise, the world will give you more to complain about.
    Moreover, the true master learns to be grateful, in advance, for the things that are desired, because, being grateful in advance for some attainment or accomplishment does two very important things: one…it tricks your subconscious into believing that the goal is certain and two…it convinces other people, with whom you must interact to achieve your desires, that you know what you are about, that you are a winner, not a whiner (哀诉者).
    小题1:The underlined word “utilities” refers to __________ in the passage.
    A．water and gas suppliesB．gas and electricity supplies
    C．shower equipment and water supplyD．heating and TV signals
    小题2: The writer was grateful mainly for ___________.
    A．his neighbor’s donationB．his community
    C．having got the jobD．others’ trust
    小题3: The writer’s personal story in the second paragraph tells us that __________.
    A．to be grateful will get you nowhere but away from home
    B．a grateful person is most likely to be successful
    C．we need to be grateful to be helpful and useful
    D．the fragrance (芳香) stays in the hand that gives the rose
    小题4:The best title for the passage would be ____________.
    A．A Thank-You Note to Trusting Neighbor
    B．You Are a Winner, Not a Whiner
    C．Be Grateful to Life in Advance
    D．Gratefulness Brings a Great Fullness to Life

I told him that I knew several   47  like that, including my brother, who was doctor in California. He    48  that maybe there were more private courts in the country, than he   49  but he did not know of any others. Then he asked me   50  my brother lived in California. When I said Sacramento, he said that was a coincidence 51 his Chicago friend spent the summer in Sacramento last year and he lived next door to a   52 who had a tennis court in his backyard. I  said I felt that really was a coincidence because my next-door neighbour had gone to Sacramento last summer and had   53  the house next to my brother’s house. For a moment, we stared at each other, but we did not say anything.
    “Would your friend’s name happen to be Roland Kirkwood?” I asked finally. He   54  and said, “Yes. Would your brother’s name happen to be Dr Rey Hunter?” It was my  55   to laugh. “Yes,” I replied.

    I was in lodgings (寄宿处) now, on my own, but the other lodgers had constant visitors up and down the stairs past my door. None of this disturbed me except one girl who sang softly to herself an old Russian folk song as she ran up to the room above. It was a sound of sweetness, musical, soft, unselfconscious and happy. I began to listen out for it, jumped up from my table, and threw open the door to catch a glimpse(一瞥) of her as she passed, but I was always too late. I asked the people upstairs who she was, and described the beautiful sounds she made. They became rather reserved(拘谨) and exchanged glances and hurriedly admitted it might be Sally. I thought she was someone special, not to be discussed in the ordinary way, and became a little curious to meet her. But the last thing I wanted at that stage was to get caught up with anybody. I’d just come to the end of a rather painful friendship, and now I had work to do.
    One day, I came face to face with a girl on the landing. It was certainly her; whoever made that noise would look as she did. We stood and stared at each other too long for comfort. I broke the moment and, excusing myself, moved past her because it was too like the movies. I thought for some time of that long, silent stare, and laughed. She was tall and looked proud, with a slight , round-shouldered look that made me breathless and I didn’t know why.
    小题1:At his lodgings, the author __________.
    A．seldom had visitors
    B．wished he had more visitors
    C．was always disturbed by other people’s visitors
    D．had too many visitors.
    小题2:Whenever the author heard the sound of the girl’s voice__________.
    A．he sat listening to itB．he saw her moving upstairs
    C．he threw down his booksD．he tried to see who it was
    小题3:People who were asked about the girl__________.
    A．told him all about herB．didn’t want to tell him much
    C．didn’t tell him anythingD．were angry when he mentioned her
    小题4:From this passage we can see that the author was____________.
    A．was not interested in SallyB．curiously attracted by Sally
    C．angry at being disturbed by SallyD．afraid to get to know Sally

    "But Ijust paid 1．69 for this bottle of wine last week．How is it that the price is 2.25?"
    There are at least three things going on that have caused the price of wine to rise．All haveto do with the supply and demand factors of economics．
    The first factor is that people are drinking more wine than ever before．This demand formore wine has increased wine sales in America at the rate of 15 percent a year．
    The second factor is that the supply of wine has stayed relatively the same, which meansthat the same number of bottles is produced each year．Wine producers are trying to open upnew land to grow more grapes．But in at least three wine producing areas of the world-France,Germany, and California --- new vineyards（葡萄园）will not be useable in the near future．Wines are produced in other countries, such as Italy, Spain, and Portugal, as well as Argentine,Australia, Austria, and Chile．And these wines will be seen more often on the American market．But none of these countries will be able to fill the good wines．
    The third factor is that costs of wine production are soaring．The workers who make wineare asking for more money, and the machinery needed to press the grapes is becoming moreexpensive．
    When the demand for something is greater than the supply, prices go up．When productioncosts, meaning the price of labor and machinery rise, the producer adds this increase to theprice of the wine．For these reasons, that bottle of wine now costs 2．25 instead of 1．69．
