    A man accused of failing to return more than 700 children’s books to five different libraries in the county was released from prison after a book publisher agreed to post his bond（保释金）of $1,000．The publisher said．“There’s a story here．This is a man who loves books．He just can’t let go of them．He hasn’t stolen a single book．So what’s the crime ? We think that Mr．Banish has story to tell．We plan to publish his story．”  
    When asked why he didn’t return the books, Mr．Banish said，”Well，how could I? They became family to me．I was afraid to return them，because I knew that kids or dogs would get hold of these books and chew them up，throw them around，tear the pages，spill soda on them，get jelly﹙糊状物﹚ on them，and drown them in the toilet．
    He continued，“Books are people，too! They talk to you，they take care of you，and they enrich you with wisdom，humor and love．A book is a guest in my home．How could I kick it out? I repaired tor n﹙撕破的﹚ pages．I dusted them with a soft clean cloth．I turned their pages so they could breathe and get some fresh air．”
    “Every week I reorganized them on their shelves so they could meet new friends，My books were HAPPY books．You could tell just by looking at them．Now they’re all back in the libraries，on the lower shelves，on the floors，at the mercy of all those runny-nosed kids I can hear them calling me．I need to rescue them．Excuse me．I have to go now．”

                                      A
    Before I started school, people felt that I was not going to be successful. At the age of four I started speech lessons because basically I could not speak well enough for anyone to understand me. The story goes downhill from here.
    The first grade was a struggle. I not only had difficulty speaking, but also felt nervous about the fact that I was expected to learn to read and I just couldn’t do it. The second grade was not much better. I still struggled with the inability to read. It was in the third grade that the school district built a new school close to my home. I remember going there with my parents and helping to get the school ready so that we could move to the new one. However, things were still not much better as far as my schooling was concerned and did not get better for the next two years.
    It was in the fifth grade. Mrs. Wakefield was my teacher, and if ever there was a teacher that deserved a gold star, it was her. She did not make me feel defeated. On the contrary, she did her best to let me know that I could be whatever I wanted to be. And that is just what I did.
    For the past 22 years, I have been a fifth grade teacher. Because of Mrs. Wakefield’s influence on my life, I am now encouraging students who have had difficulties in their lives to believe that they can overcome any difficulty and become someone. I have won numerous awards up to now, such as Teacher of the Year. I owe it all to one fifth grade teacher who believed in me and challenged me to be all that I could be.
    小题1:The writer ______ when he was in the third grade.
    A．did better in readingB．began speech lessons
    C．went to a new schoolD．received a high award
    小题2:We can learn from the passage that the writer ______.
    A．is a very successful teacher now
    B．thinks teaching is a challenging job
    C．has solved problems with his own effort
    D．works in the same school with Mrs. Wakefield
    小题3:What is the writer’s purpose in writing the passage?
    A．To express his devotion to his work.
    B．To show his respect to a special teacher.
    C．To share his teaching experience with us.
    D．To tell us his story of overcoming difficulties.

    A few years ago, I moved into a new house in Los Angeles. Soon after, a family moved in next door. It wasn’t the best of times for me. I had just divorced(离婚) from my second wife, and I wasn’t working. I’d come home each day and sit by myself in the backyard. One night, I heard someone from the yard next door, “Tom ! How are you, Tom? ” 
    I couldn’t see anybody through the trees, but I answered, “I’ m good.”
    “Good!” said the voice.
    “What’s your name?” I asked.

    I have recently completed my college degree. The last project was called “Smile”. The class was asked to go out to smile at three people and document their reactions. I am a very friendly person and always smile at everyone and say hello anyway. So, I thought this would be a piece of cake.
    My husband, youngest son and I went out to McDonald. We were standing in line when all of a sudden everyone around us began to back away. As I turned around I smelled a horrible body odour （气味）and saw two poor homeless men standing behind me. As I looked at the short blue-eyed gentleman closest to me, he was “smiling”. The second man fumbled（摸索）with his hands as he stood behind his friend.
    The young lady at the counter asked him what they wanted. He said, “Coffee is all, Miss,” because that was all they could afford.
    Then I really felt it－I embraced（拥抱） the little man with the blue eyes. That is when I noticed all eyes in the restaurant were set on me, judging my every action. I smiled and asked two more breakfast meals on and gave them to the men.
    The blue-eyed gentleman looked up at me, with tears in his eyes, and said, “Thank you.” When I sat down my husband smiled at me. We held hands for a moment and at that time, we knew that because of the good fortune that we had been given.
    I turned in my project. My teacher said, “Can I share this?” I slowly nodded as she got the attention of the class. She began to read and that is when I knew that we as human beings share this need to heal people and to be healed.
    In my own way I had touched the people at McDonald’s and every soul that heard the story in the classroom. But, I graduated with one of the biggest lessons I would ever learn.
    小题1:Why did people around the author in the McDonald step back?
    A．Because they were very polite to the two men.
    B．Because they were moved by the two men.
    C．Because the two men smelt terrible.
    D．Because the two men seemed unfriendly.
    小题2:Why did the two men only buy coffee?
    A．Because they didn’t have enough money.
    B．Because they didn’t feel hungry.
    C．Because they knew others would help them.
    D．Because they were looked down upon.
    小题3:How did the teacher think of the author’s project?
    A．Hard to believe.B．Interesting to read.
    C．Very puzzling.D．Very satisfying.
    小题4:What did the author think she learn from the story?
    A．A friend in need is a friend indeed.
    B．Helping others can bring pleasure to many people.
    C．Nothing is difficult to a willing heart.
    D．Don’t judge people according to their appearance.

    What kind of pets do people have in your country? Dogs? Cats? How about a duck, hippo(河马) or lion? Here are two cases of animal owners with unusual pets.
    Barrie Hayman has a pet duck called Star. Barrie adopted(领养) him after his brothers and sisters stayed away from him at birth. Barrie, a duck breeder, realized the little duck needed special attention. So he began taking Star with him everywhere he went. “I would put him in my pocket while I did my shopping,” said Barrie. Now, at five months, Star is too big for Barrie’s pocket, but the two are still inseparable. They watch sports, together and even share a drink together. Barrie said, “He is a fantastic duck. I’ve never known any like him.” Star even has his own Facebook page, with more than 2,000 Face book friends.
    Then there is the case of Tonie and Shirley Joubert in South Africa. They live with their hippo, Jessica. Tonie saved Jessica from floodwaters when she was only a day old. Jessica lives outside their riverside house, but she knows how to open the kitchen door, and often goes there for a snack. Tonie recently said, “I don’t know whether Jessica sees me as a hippo or whether she sees herself as a human.” Shirley is more certain, “Jessica sees herself as our child and I see Jessica as my daughter. I can’t imagine my life without Jessica.” Jessica is free to leave, and often visits wild hippos that live nearby. But she always returns home at night. Jessica’s website notes that she has three hippo boyfriends, but one in particular,Fred, is her favorite. They often go grazing(吃青草) together and Fred has recently moved onto the Joubert’s house as well.
    小题1:What’s the main idea of the passage?
    A．Some websites are set up to protect pets.
    B．Some unusual pets are adopted by people
    C．People should take good care of their pets
    D．Pets sometimes can be very interesting
    小题2:What does the underlined word “inseparable” in Paragraph 2 mean?
    A．Always togetherB．Always separated
    C．Always friendlyD．Always healthy
    小题3:Barrie took Star everywhere he went because______.
    A．he had never seen a duck like Star
    B．he set up a Facebook page for Star
    C．he wanted care more about Star
    D．he needed Star to drink with him
    小题4:We can learn from the passage that Jessica ______
    A．came to Joubert’s home when she was 5 months old
    B．loves eating in the Joubert’s kitchen
    C．doesn’t see herself as a human being
    D．has more than three boyfriends
