Wings of Angel 
I used to hate myself because I wasn’t “normal”. Everyone else could play on the monkey bars and ride on a bicycle, but not   36 . I had a severe spinal cord disorder (脊髓病) and I knew I would always be much   37  than others.
I hated going to school and I hated people   38  at me. I hated seeing others smiling broadly and standing straight and tall. And most of all, I hated looking in the   39  and seeing an ugly hunchback (驼背).
My friends found me   40  because I didn’t let others get close to me. I thought I was going to go on like this for the rest of my life   41  Angela appeared.
That afternoon, I was sitting by myself in a corner of the school — a spot where no one would   42  me. That’s when I first heard her voice.
“Hi. Can I sit down?”
I raised my head and there she was, with an irresistible smile on her round face.
“What are you looking at?” she asked.
“Ants.”
“What are they doing?”
“No idea.”
“I bet they’re playing games and making friends. Don’t you think so?”
That was how our   43  started and it didn’t stop. We talked about everything under the sun—the ants, the clouds, my little niche (处境) — until it was sunset.
Then suddenly, she saw my   44 . She just stared.
My heart sank. What I feared most had happened and I knew for sure she would   45  me now.
She stood up, pointed at my back and said, “I know   46  your back is hunched.”
I closed my eyes like a criminal waiting to be sentenced. I begged in my heart for her to   47 , but she just kept on going. “I know what you’ve got in there. Do you?”
“No,” I answered   48 .
She bent and whispered in my ears.
“Your back is hunched because you’ve got a pair of wings from the angels.”  
I was   49 . I looked into her eyes and her kindness touched my heart. From that day on, I started to learn to   50  myself because I have the wings of an angel and a kind-hearted friend.

Parents whose children show a special interest in a sport feel very difficult to make a decision about their children's careers. Should they allow their children to train to become top sportsmen and sportswomen? For many children it means starting schoolwork very young, and going out with friends and other interests have to take a second place. It's very difficult to explain to a young child why he or she has to train five hours a day, even at the weekend, when most of his or her friends are playing.
Another problem is of course money. In many countries money for training is available from government for the very best young sportsmen and sportswomen. If this help can not be given, it means that it is the parents who have to find the time and the money to support their child's development and sports clothes, transport to competitions, special equipment, etc. All can be very expensive.
Many parents are worried that it is dangerous to start serious training in a sport at an early age. Some doctors agree that young muscles may he damaged by training before they are properly developed. Professional trainers, however, believe that it is only by training when young that you can reach the top as a successful sports person. It is clear that very few people do reach the top, and both parents and children should be prepared for failure even after many years of training.
小题1:This passage is most probably taken from _______.
A.a letterB.an advertisementC.a personal diaryD.a newspaper

B.try to get financial support from the govern­ment for their children's training

D.prefer their children to be trained as young as possible
小题3:Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A.By starting young, you won't have much time for your schoolwork.
B.Early training may damage your muscles.
C.Most children may become top sportsmen after a long period of training.
D.It' s very expensive for parents to support their child's development in sports.

A.to repeat the activities some other day
B.to become less important

Once upon a time, there was a scholar who wanted to gain more knowledge each day even though he had already gained enough knowledge. One day, he came to visit a saint and wanted to be his student. The saint provided some tea. He slowly filled the scholar’s cup: the cup was full, yet he kept pouring and pouring. The scholar burst out, “Stop! You can’t add anything to something that’s already full!” The saint set down the teapot and replied, “Exactly.”
Whether it’s the silence between notes in music, or some open time in your schedule, you need space to act effectively. Yet most of us, myself included, tend to stuff as much as possible into whatever room is available-closets, schedules, budgets, relationships, and even the mind itself.
However, some people know how to avoid overstuffing their life. For example, in Australia, it seemed that most people there operated at about 85% of their capacity(能力),unlike Americans pushing as close to 100% as possible. So when you run into Australians you know in the street, they have time to hang out and talk with you.
Remember the cup: its value is in the space, the emptiness it holds. How to empty your “cup”?
Be mindful of the element of space, openness , and emptiness  in your life. This includes room in a drawer, the volume of air in a kitchen, and open-mindedness in a friend. Sometimes you’re just stuck with a big bucket of tasks yet to do. But at least empty the bucket faster than you fill it with new tasks. Put some space between finishing one thing and staring another. For example, after sending one email, take a breath before replying to another one. Drop the stuff you can no longer afford to lug around. At sea level, you can run with a brick in your backpack, but if you’re hiking on a mountain, that brick has got to go.
小题1:By pouring water into the cup, the saint most probably wanted the scholar to know that     .
A.he should pay attention to details
B.he should keep learning every day
C.he had already gained enough knowledge
D.he should be very careful in order to succeed
小题2:We learn that compared to Americans, Australians      .
A.work much harder
B.know less about their capacity
C.spare more time for themselves
D.spend less time with their friends
小题3:The underlined word“lug”in the last paragraph probably means“     ”.
A.reachB.carryC.seeD.show
小题4:What’s  the structure of the passage?
A.Example →advice→ conclusion →story.
B.Topic→ example →advice→ story.
C.Story→topic →example→advice.
D.Reason →topic →advice →example.
小题5:What would be the best title for the passage?
A.The art of life.B.Value every minute
C.The art of drinking teaD.Empty your“cup”at times

One day, an expert in time-management was speaking to a group of business students. To make the point , he used an illustration.
As he stood in front of the group, he said, “Okay, time for a quiz.” He then pulled out a wide-mouth jar and set it on the table. Then he    2   placed about a dozen fist-sized rocks, one by one, into the jar.
When the jar was filled to the    3   and no more rocks would fit inside, he asked, “Is this jar    4 ?” Everyone in the class said, “Yes.”
“Really?” Then he    5  under the table and pulled out a bucket of gravel(沙砾,石子),dumped some in and   6  the jar, causing pieces of gravel to work themselves down into the space    7  the big rocks. Then he asked the group the same question. “Probably not.” One of them answered. “Good!” he replied.
He reached under the table and    8   a bucket of sand. He started dumping the sand in the jar and it went into all the    9   left between the rocks and the gravel.    10   he asked the question. “No!” the class shouted. “Good!” Then he grabbed a can of water and began to pour it in    11   the jar was filled to the brim.
Then the expert in time-management looked at the class and asked, “What is the    12  of this illustration?” It is such a seemingly easy question that one   13   student raised his hand and said, “It is, however full your schedule is, if you try really hard you can always   14   some more things in it.”
“No,” the speaker replied, “The truth it teaches us is that you will    15   get them in at all if you don’t put the big rocks in first.    16   the big rocks in your life are, do things that you love and    17  for yourself. In your schedule if you value the little stuff then you’ll fill your life with    18   things and you will never have the real quality time you need to spend on the big, important stuff. So, tonight, or in the morning, when you are   19   on this short story, ask yourself what are the ‘big rocks’ in your life? Then put those in your    20   first.”

Night after night, as was often the case, she’d lean down and push my long hair out of the  36 ,then kiss my forehead.
I don’t remember when it first started   37  me. But it did. Finally one night, I shouted out as her, “Don’t do that any more – your hands are too   38 !” She didn’t say anything in reply. But never again did my mother   39  my day with that familiar   40  of her love.
With the years passing, my thoughts   41 to that night, when I missed my mother’s hands, missed her goodnight   42  on my forehead. Sometimes the incident seemed very   43 , while sometimes far away. But always it was hidden in the back of my   44 . Now Mom is in her seventies, and those hands that I   45  thought to be so rough are still doing things for me and my   46 . And now my own children are grown and gone. One Thanksgiving Eve,   47  I slept in the bedroom of my youth, a   48  hand hesitantly run across my face to   49  the hair from my forehead. Then a kiss, ever so   50 , touched my brow.
In my memory, for the thousandth time, I recalled the night and my young voice   51 . “Don’t do that any more – your hands are too rough!”   52 , I caught Mom’s hand in hand, saying how   53 I was for that night. I thought she’d remember, as I did. But Mom didn’t know   54  I was talking about. She had forgotten, and forgiven long ago.
That night, I fell asleep with a new   55  for my gentle mother and her caring hands. And the guilt that I had carried around for so long was nowhere to be found.

Nowadays, a hospital always manages to keep its beds full. This is good on the one hand, and it’s bad on   36  hand.
One day, I went to see a sick friend at the hospital. I first went to the   37  desk, where I could get a permit to visit the patient.
  38  I could ask which room my friend was in, the lady set down my name, age, filled out a form and   39  a bell. I was just about to tell her what I was coming for when two men arrived with a wheelchair,   40   me in it and pushed me down the hall.
“I’m not   41 ,” I shouted. “I’m just looking for a friend.”
“When he comes,” one man said, “we’ll   42  him up to your room.”
In a minute I   43  myself in a small room. In no time they undressed me and covered some other things   44  me. One man said “If you need anything, press the button.”
“I want to get my   45   back.” I begged.
“Oh, you can   46    us,” a voice said, “Even if the   47  happens, we will see that your wife will get everything.” They left and locked the door   48   them.
I was trying to think of how to escape by the door when Dr. Ward came in with several of his   49 .
“Thank God you finally came,” I said.
“It hurts that badly?” he asked.
“No, on the contrary, I am not ill   50 .”
Dr. Ward looked   51 . “If you don’t feel any pain, that means it’s much more   52  than we expected.” Then he turned to his students: “This is the most difficult kind of patient to deal with because he refuses to   53  that he is ill. __54__ he won’t tell us where it hurts, he will never be well again until we find the hurt out for   55  by doing exploratory surgery (手术探查) .”

Bears and humans often meet in National Parks. Although campers and hikers are warned not to feed the bears, many people ignore these warnings and feed the beasts anyway. When bears are used to people’s food, problems soon arise.
Bears like to eat a large variety of things, both meat and vegetable. Without human assistance, bears live nicely on roots, twigs, leaves of trees, insects and small animals. With people around, the bears’ tastes quickly expand to include sandwiches, hot dogs, hamburgers, and anything else they can temp humans into giving up.
Bears often develop clever strategies for getting people to let go their food supplies. More often than not, an unsuspecting hiker has taken off his or her pack for a rest only to have a bear charge out of the woods, grab the pack and quickly disappear into the underbrush with it. Hanging the pack on a tree branch won’t help. Bears have been known to climb up, jump off, and catch the pack on the way down. One mother bear stretched up with her baby on her shoulders to reach a pack stored on a pole. Many bears threaten people into giving up their supplies. Although a bear is unlikely to attack a person and would probably run away if screamed at, few people are willing to do so. Most people drop the pack and run the other way. This, of course, delights the bear. In some places, the Park Service installed some metal barrels with lids to help campers keep their supplies safe from bears. Although the bears were unable to open these containers, the effort was less than successful. Most campers, unable to tell the metal drums from rubbish cans, never used them for the intended purpose.
