I received a call today asking if I would be willing to bring food to a family in need. The mother was having a major operation and would be lying down for several weeks. Of course, I responded with an immediate “Yes!”. As I planned the meal in my head, I reflected on how many times over the years I had been asked to prepare food. I have done so countless times with a very open heart.
But the truly amazing thing is that I have received double over the course of my life. When my mother passed away, our house was filled with fresh dinners for weeks. A woman from the church of our community stopped by each evening with some food. The gift of food was her small way of trying to ease our pain.
Later in my life, when I was on bed rest during my pregnancy with twins, women of the church again stepped in to help. They arranged babysitting for my two­year­old daughter, and brought lovely dinners to our house. Even when I was put in the hospital, my husband would bring cooked meals to my hospital room. How we relied on these dinners to feed my tired husband and young daughter.
Food is all about comfort. It feeds our bodies, but it can also feed our souls. When you hear people talking about their favourite holidays, it usually includes their feelings connected with sharing food. I know that I will have many more opportunities in my lifetime to prepare food for others. It is truly a gift I want to prepare and deliver to someone in need.
小题1:The author has given lots of food to others because________.
A.she is poor at cooking
B.she is a church member
C.she is friendly to others
D.she has received others' food
小题2:We can learn from the first paragraph that the author________.
A.had to stay in bed for several weeks
B.knew the family in need very well
C.was glad to be able to lend a hand
D.was tired of preparing food
小题3:Which of the following is TRUE about the author?
A.Her mother died when she was in hospital.
B.She didn't get enough food during her pregnancy.
C.She received food as well as comfort in her hard times.
D.She thinks offering food is the best way to show love.
小题4:What do we know about the author's family?
A.Her family is too poor to buy enough food.
B.Her family lives not far from a church.
C.Her husband is not good at cooking.
D.She has a babysitter taking care of her twins.

Not too long ago, our teacher, being a “tree-hugger” (as the kids call her), had us write an essay on an environmental issue . I was eager to start, but something made me stop.
“What is an environmental issue ?” one kid asked . “What if we don’t care about the environment ?” another complained. “ It’s not like it affects me .”
These comments astounded me .I have always cared about the environment and assumed that others did too. From the surprised look on my teacher’s face, I could tell she felt the same way.
In no time, I finished my essay . In my essay I wrote about logging(伐木), which is an important industry, but if we continue to cut down trees without replacing them, it will damage the environment.
There are so many things that we can do to save our world. Recycling, of course, is always a good thing, but not everyone has a recycling plant nearby ( I don’t ) . There are other ways to help the environment . Plant a tree. Don’t waste water.
I can’t stand it when a person’s excuse for not caring is “Nothing’s going to happen in my lifetime, so why should I care ?” Sure, the chances of something terrible happening are slim, but I want people to realize that if we don’t deal with it, someone will have to eventually. Do you want that to be your children ?
When my teacher told me to read my essay to my class, I was a little embarrassment because I didn’t want everyone to call me “tree- hugger”. I realize now that if being a tree-hugger means you cares about the environment, I’m a tree-hugger 100 percent. I just wish more people were too.
小题1:Why do the students call her teacher “tree-hugger” ?
A.She likes hugging trees.
B.She knows a lot about trees.
C.She grew up in the country.
D.She cares a lot about the environment.
小题2:The underlined word in Paragraph 3 can be replaced by ____.
A.helpedB.changedC.shockedD.interested
小题3:Paragraph 5 is mainly about ____.
A.what we can recycle
B.how we can save the earth
C.why we should protect the earth
D.what damage we are doing to the earth
小题4:We can infer from the text that _____
A.the students don’t like the teacher
B.the teacher liked the author’s essay
C.the author is ashamed of being a tree-hugger
D.the author should have written a better essay

A lady and her husband stepped off the train in Boston. They walked without an appointment (预约) into the outer        of Harvard’s president. But they were       by his secretary and kept waiting. For hours, the secretary took no notice of them,        that the couple would finally become       and go away. But they didn’t. The secretary finally decided to disturb the president, though        .
A few minutes later, the president walked towards the couple with a       face. The lady told him, “We had a son that        Harvard for one year. He loved Harvard. He was        here. But about a year ago, he was accidentally killed. My husband and I would like to        a memorial (纪念物) to him, somewhere on campus.”
The president wasn’t        . Instead, he was shocked. “Madam,” he said, “we can’t put up a statue for every person who studied at Harvard and died. If we did, this       would look like a cemetery (墓地).” “Oh, no,” the lady       quickly, “we don’t want to put up a statue. We would like to give a        to Harvard.” The president rolled his eyes and         at the couple and then exclaimed(呼喊), “A building! Do you have any        how much a building costs? We have spent over $ 7,500,000 on the campus building at Harvard.” For a moment the lady was silent. The president was    , because he could get rid of them now. Then the lady turned to her husband and said quietly. “Is that all it costs to start a       ? Why don’t we just start our own?” Her husband nodded. Since their offer was     , Mr and Mrs Stanford traveled to California      they founded the University that bears their       , a memorial to a son that Harvard no longer cared about.

Dear Cary,
I’m writing because I’ve understood you’ve struggled with alcoholism(酗酒).I’ve been fighting mine ever since I went through 9-11.After that,I’ve been more or less useless professionally –I’m a lawyer–and have had to resign from my job because I was discovered passed-out drunk in front of my computer. I’ve taken some medicine and it has helped somewhat. I can manage about a month without drinking,but after that I end up having a crazy stage where nothing matters except drinking.After a week or so of heavy drinking,I start having nightmares of people jumping. After that,it’s a week of not being able to get out of bed.
I was supposed to travel to a conference but didn’t make it because I got so drunk at the airport that I fell down on my face and spent the rest of the day in the emergency room. I have been hiding from my family since then.Fortunately they won’t be expecting me to come back for a week or so. Otherwise, they would notice the bump on my forehead and two black eyes.
I don’t really know what I’m asking you.Cary, I need a way out that doesn’t involve causing pain to my family.I’m taking medicine,but I still have these attacks every few months.If there’s alcohol in the house,I can’t stay away from it.It seems that this will never end. I’m afraid of what will happen if something bad happens,like a family member dying, or getting fired again.
Thanks for reading.
Yours T
