    Even after several weeks, every time I read this little story I start to cry:
    My sister-in-law teaches physically and mentally handicapped children at a private school in Brooklyn. She recently   21  a Special Olympics and went to the starting line of the 100-metre dash with six   22   contestants.
    As the starting whistle sounded, a boy tripped, fell and began to cry. All the other   23  stopped, turned and went back to help. Then they all   24  hands and went on to the finish line together. Needless to say, everyone in the stands   25  .
    Why am I so moved? There are tears of joy   26  with tears of sadness. Tears of joy, just for the   27  friendship, selflessness and love embodied (体现) by these children. Tears of sadness, just for how   28  from such behavior we adults have wandered. Wouldn’t it be nice if, at least once in a while, we could pause in our race for money and power; turn around to see the   29   of those we have left behind; go back and   30  these less able ones to their feet; and then walk forward together with them, arm in arm.

    But I wonder about my Momma sometimes, and all the other Negro (blacks) mothers who got up at 6 a.m. to go to the white man’s house with sacks (鞋套) over their shoes because it was so wet and cold. I wonder how they managed it. They worked very hard for the man, they made his breakfast and they scrubbed his floors and they took care of his babies. They didn’t have too much time for us.
    I wonder about my Momma, who walked out of a white woman’s clean house at midnight and came back to her own where the lights had been out for three months, and the hot-water pipes were frozen and the wind came in through the holes in the wall. She’d have to deal with the mice: leave some food out for them so they wouldn’t bite the doors or the babies. The roaches（蟑螂）？Oh, they were just like part of the family!
    I wonder how she felt telling those white kids she took care of to brush their teeth after they ate, to wash their hands after they finished bathroom. She could never tell her own kids because there wasn’t soap or water back home.
    I wonder how my Momma felt when we came home from school with a list of vitamins and pills the school nurse said we had to have. Momma would cry all night , and then go out and spend most of the rent (房租) money for pills. A week later, the white man would come for his eighteen dollars’ rent and Momma would beg him to wait until tomorrow. She had to lie to him that she had lost her wallet, or make up some other excuses. Tomorrow I’d be hiding in the closet (橱柜) because there should be only two kids in the flat, and I could hear the rent man shout at my Momma and call her a cheat. And when he finally went away, Momma put the sacks on her shoes and went off to the rich white man’s house to dress the rich white kids so their mother could take them to a special baby doctor.
    66. Mother got up at 6 a.m. every day, because _________.
    A. she had to cook breakfast for her children      
    B. she had to catch the first bus to the factory
    C. she had to work in the white man’s house       
    D. she had to go to see a special baby doctor
    67. What does the underlined word “scrubbed” mean in the text?
    A. mopped        B. cleared               C. painted         D. built
    68. Mother never told us to brush our teeth or to wash our hands because ___________ .
    A. she thought we didn’t need to          B. we didn’t like washing hands
    C. we had done everything very well       D. there was no soap or water in our home
    69. Why did the writer hide in the closet when the owner of the flat came for rent?
    A. The closet could only hold two kids.              
    B. Only two kids were allowed to live in the house.
    C. They should pay more rent for two kids.           
    D. There was only one bedroom for the two kids.
    70. What does the writer mainly tell us?
    A. Black people lead a hard life.                       
    B. Black people don’t have enough rent money.
    C. White people lead an expensive life.          
    D. White people have special baby doctors.

    I used to believe in the American dream that meant a job, credit, success．I wanted it and worked toward it like everyone else, all of us separately chasing the same thing．
    One year, through a series of unhappy events, it all fell apart．I found myself homeless and alone．I had my truck and $56．I searched the countryside for some place I could rent for the cheapest possible amount．I came upon a deserted cottage in a small remote valley．I hadn't been alone for 25 years．I was scared, but I hoped the hard work would distract and heal me．
    I found the owner and rented the place for $50 a month．The locals knew nothing about me．But slowly they started teaching me the art of being a neighbor．They dropped off blankets, tools and canned deer meat and began sticking around to chat．They would ask if I wanted to meet cousin Albie or go fishing．They started to teach me a belief in a different American dream, not the one of individual achievement but of neighborliness．Men would stop by with wild berries, ice cream, truck parts to see if I was up for courting．I wasn't, but they were civil anyway．The women on that mountain worked harder than any I'd ever met．They taught me how to store food in the stream and keep it cold and safe．I learned to keep enough for an extra plate for company．
    What I had believed in, all those things I thought were necessary for a civilized life, were non-existent in this place．Up on the mountain, my most valuable possessions were my relationships with my neighbors．
    After four years in that valley, I moved back into town．I saw a lot of people were having a really hard time, losing their jobs and homes．With the help of a real estate broker （房地产经纪人） I chatted up at the grocery store, I managed to rent a big enough house to take in a handful of people．It's four of us now, but over time I've had nine come in and move on to other places from here．We'd all be in shelters if we hadn't banded together．
    The American dream I believe in now is a shared one．It's not so much about what I can get for myself; it's about how we can all get by together．
    56．Before a series of unhappy events happened, the writer ____．
    A．had a well-paid job
    B．worked hard for his American dream

    Freda Bright says, "Only in opera do people die of love." It's true. You really can't love somebody to death. I've known people to die from no love, but I've never known anyone to be loved to death. We just can't love one another enough.
    A heart-warming story tells of a woman who finally decided to ask her boss for a raise in salary. All day she felt nervous and apprehensive. Late in the afternoon she summoned the courage to approach her employer. To her delight, the boss agreed to a raise.
    The woman arrived home that evening to a beautiful table set with their best dishes. Candles were softly glowing. Her husband had come home early and prepared a festive meal. She wondered if someone from the office had tipped him off, or... did he just somehow know that she would not get turned down?
    She found him in the kitchen and told him the good news. They embraced and kissed, and then sat down to the wonderful meal. Next to her plate the woman found a beautifully lettered note. It read, "Congratulations, darling! I knew you'd get the raise! These things will tell you how much I love you."
    Following the supper, her husband went into the kitchen to clean up. She noticed that a second card had fallen from his pocket. Picking it off the floor, she read, "Don't worry about not getting the raise! You deserve it anyway! These things will tell you how much I love you."
    Someone has said that the measure of love is when you love without measure. What this man feels for his wife is total acceptance and love, whether she succeeds or fails. His love celebrates her victories and cure her wounds. He stands with her, no matter what life throws in their direction.
    Upon receiving the Nobel Peace Prize, Mother Teresa said, "What can you do to promote world peace? Go home and love your family." And love your friends. Love them without measure.

    Certainly people make you feel comfortable when they are around. You spend an hour with them and feel as if you’ve known them half your life. These people have something in common. And once we know what it is, we can try to do it ourselves.
    How is it done? Here are several skills (技巧) that good talkers have. If you follow the skills, they will help you put people at ease, and make friends with them quickly.
    First of all, good talkers ask questions. Almost anyone, no matter how shy they are, will answer a question. One well-known businessman says. “At business lunches, I always ask people what they did this morning. It’s a common question, but it will get things going.” From there you can move on to other matters sometimes to really personal questions. And how they answer will let you know how far you can go.
    Second, once good talkers have asked questions they listen for the answer. This point seems clear, but it isn’t. Your questions should have a point and help to tell what sort of person you are talking to. And to find out, you really have to listen carefully and attentively (专心地).
    Real listening means certain things. First it means not to change the subject of conversation (对话). If someone sticks to (坚持) one topic (话题), you can take it as a fact that he’ll be really interested in it. Real listening also means not just listening to words, but to tones (语调) of voice. If the voice sounds dull, then, it’s time for you to change the subject.
    Finally, good talkers know well how to deal with the occasion (场合) of parting. If you’re saying goodbye, you may give him a firm handshake and say, “I’ve really enjoyed meeting you.” If you want to see that person again, don’t keep it secret. Let people know what you feel, and they may walk away feeling as if they’ve known you half their life.
    64. You’ll like to stay with certain people because ________.
    A. they know how to get along with others  
    B. you can often get much help from them
    C. they are always glad to do anything for you
    D. they will never get you into trouble
    65. Asking questions might be quite a good way ________.
    A. for you to make more and more new friends
    B. to begin your business talks
    C. to get the conversation going well
    D. for you to make a deep and lasting impression (印象) on others
    66. After having asked somebody a question, it’ll be polite of you to ________.
    A. make clear what kink of person he is
    B. listen to his answer attentively
    C. wait quietly and patiently for his answer
    D. talk with others
    67. Generally speaking, good talkers are persons who ________.
    A. are good at making any topic interesting  
    B. never talk too much or too little
    C. always speak in a gentle way
    D. know how and when they should change the topic of the talk

    I will be traveling to Australia as a Student Ambassador with People to People. People to People arranges for American students to travel all around the world to learn about other cultures, and to help others understand American culture. The program was founded by former President Dwight D. Eisenhower to promote peace through understanding.
    I had to put in many hours of special work to get to this point. First, a teacher nominated (推荐) me, and then I attended an informational meeting about the program. The application process included an interview, and finally, I was accepted.
    That’s when the hard work really began. In addition to attending monthly meetings to prepare for the big trip, my parents encouraged my twin sister Beth (also participating in the program) and me to raise $ 2,000 each to help pay for the cost. And so the fund-raising began. We did everything from selling candy bars to selling an old car to decorating people’s mailboxes during the holiday season. We also babysat, washed cars, held a yard sale, and washed windows. After months of hard work I had raised a total of $2319.87! Combined, Beth and I raised over $ 4500.00!
    Now I have a problem-packing. Yes, I know it sounds unimportant, but my suitcase seems to have shrunk (收缩) as I placed my belongings inside. According to airline regulations (规定), a suitcase can be no larger than 54 inches and weigh no more than 44 pounds. For a person who likes to wear a different outfit every day, packing all my clothes into such a small space seemed an impossible task. However, I have lessened my load and my suitcase which started out weighting overweight now checks in at a mere 36. Apart from a slightly bloated (臃肿) carry-on bag, my luggage is definitely manageable.
    I doubt that I will not get much sleep tonight because I am so excited! I know that what lies ahead is going to be the trip of lifetime!
    小题1:When does the author write the passage?
    A．Before leaving for Australia.B．Several months before the journey.
    C．Just hours after reaching the destination.D．The night when she was accepted.
    小题2:Which of the following is not the aim of People to People program?
    A．To promote peace through understanding.B．To collect money for traveling.
    C．To make American culture known to others.D．To learn about other cultures.
    小题3:Which is the correct order of the author’ preparation for the journey?
    a. being accepted as a member
    b. raising money for the trip
    c. attending a meeting about the program
    d. packing belongings
    e. being nominated by the teacher
    A．e, a, b, c, dB．a, c, e, d, bC．e, c, a, d, bD．e, c, a, b, d
    小题4:What does the author think of the journey?
    A．It could be a tiring expensive journey.
    B．It could be long-lasting journey, which needs taking all daily necessities.
    C．It could be an exciting, unforgettable journey.
    D．It could be an overseas journey, during which she would experience hard labor.

    I shall never forget the night, a few years ago, when Marion J. Douglas was a student in one of my calsses. (I have not used his real name for personal reasons. As he requested.) But here is his real story as he told it before one of our adult – education classes. He told us how tragedy had struck at his home, not once, but twice. The first time he had lost his five-old daughter, a child he adored. He and his wife thought they couldn’t bear that first loss; but, as he said:“Ten months later, God gave us another little girl and she died in five days.”
    This double bereavement was almost too much to bear. “I couldn’t take it,” this father told us. “I couldn’t sleep, I couldn’t eat, I couldn’t rest or relax. My nerves were entirely shaken and my confidence gone.” At last he went to doctors; one recommended sleeping pills and another recommended a trip. He tried both, but neither helped. He said:“My body felt as if it was surrounded in a vice(大钳子), and the jaws of the vice were being drawn tighter and tighter.” The tension of grief(悲伤)——if you have ever been paralyzed(使瘫痪)by sorrow, you know what he meant.
    But thank God, I had one child left ——a four —year— old son. He gave me the solution to my problem. One afternoon as I sat around feeling sorry for myself, he asked; ‘Daddy, will you build a boat for me?’ I was in no mood to build a boat; in fact, I was in no mood to do anything. But my son is a persistent little fellow! I had to give in.
    Building that toy boat took me about three hours. By the time it was finished, I realized that those three hours spent building that boat were first hours of mental relaxation and peace that I had had in months! I realized that it is difficult to worry while you are busy doing something that requires planning and thinking. In my case, building the boat had knocked worry out of the ring. So I determined to keep busy.
    The following night, I went from room to room in the house, making a list of jobs that ought to be done. Scores of items needed to be repaired: bookcase, stair steps, storm windows, window-shades, locks, leaky taps. Amazing as it seems, in the course of two weeks I had made a list of 242 items that needed attention.
    “During the last two years I have completed most of them. I am busy now that I have no time for worry.”
    No time for worry! That is exactly what Winston Churchill said when he was working eighteen hours a day at the height of the war. When he was asked if he worried about his huge responsibilities, he said :“I am too busy. I have no time for worry.”
    55.The underlined word “bereavement” in the second paragraph refers to          .
    A.having lost a loved one                                   B.having lost a valuable article
    C.having lost a profit-making business                D.having lost a well-paid job
    56.Marion felt his body as if it was caught in a vice because            .
    A.he couldn’t earn enough money to support his family
    B.he was suffering from sleeplessness disease
    C.he couldn’t get out of mental pressure
    D.he felt tired of adult-education classes
    57.Marion made a list of over 200 items that needed to be repaired because           .
    A.he hadn’t been able to spare time to mend them
    B.he wanted to kill his free time by repairing them
    C.the items had actually been broken and needed attention
    D.repairing the items helped crowd worry out of his mind
    58.At the end of the passage, the author wrote about Winston Churchill in order to         .
    A.prove that he followed Churchill’s example
    B.support his student’s solution to his problem
    C.show that he was successful in his career
    D.clarify how his conclusion was reached
