    At that time, Glen, who already got a Ph.D. degree, ___38___to return to the homeland, starting a company.

    After returning to the homeland, he often told the story to his family, and his employees, too.

    试题分析：文章讲述百万富翁Mr. Glen亲身经历的一件由于不诚实而交了“昂贵学费”的故事，并从中吸取了教训：诚实正直是成功的秘诀。
    小题1:set up建立;成立;take up拿起;开始从事;go up上升;被兴建;pick up恢复，拾起。由下文starting a company可知是Glen归国成立了一家公司。
    小题2:owe …to… 把……归功于……。Glen 把自己的成功归功于那次交了“昂贵学费”的经历。
    小题3:根据后面的before leaving可知是他决定回国。decide to do sth.决定做某事， refuse及object都是不回国。
    小题4:买表要用钱，这里指放学后打工挣的积蓄和奖学金得来的钱，不一定是英镑(pound)。小题5:根据上文 Glen要回国，当然要经过机场例行的海关检查。routine例行的;日常的，常规的。ordinary普通的;regular有规律的;common常见的。只有B符合。
    小题6:根据上文的check可知是要把手表摘下来检查的，因此用inspection。test表示试用;look看看;experiment实验。
    小题7:it指代上句的the tax，而one泛指可数名词单数;them 及these都是复数形式。
    小题8:选C。既然是假货，应该是不值钱的，故选C。而priceless表示无价的, 极贵重的;worthless表示不值钱的。
    小题9:根据下文的his “smarts”可知Glen对自己的聪明感到自豪。
    小题10:which引导非限制性定语从句，在这里指的是先行词the watch。
    小题11:。on hearing his words“一听到他的话”。“on + 名词/动名词”表示“一……就”，是固定用法。at后只跟名词。
    小题12:根据“海关人员当着他的面把劳力士表砸碎”以及后面“还没明白怎么回事，就被带到了一间办公室”可知Glen很吃惊。
    小题13:根据后文Glen因为这件事而上了黑名单可知，海关对他的检查应该是严格的
    小题14:Glen在国外读书并获得学位可知他应该有过很多次的出入境经历。
    小题15:根据该官员仔细检查及后面的according to law可知，该官员语气应该是严厉的，故warn最佳。
    小题16:如果他再次被发现使用假冒伪劣商品，将根据法律受到起诉。find out符合warn和according to law的语境。
    小题17:既然携带假冒伪劣商品是违法的事情，那么according to law(根据法律)，那一定是被起诉(charged)了。
    小题18:make an impression on sb.给某人留下了印象，是一个固定短语。expression“表达，表示”。
    小题19:额外的高额“学费”使他意识到诚实的价值。 honesty诚实,正直
    小题20:跟首段呼应，诚实正直是他成功的秘诀。
    点评：文章讲述百万富翁Mr. Glen亲身经历的一件由于不诚实而交了“昂贵学费”的故事，从而得出：诚实正直是成功的秘诀。文章富有哲理。做完形填空题：1、通读全文，掌握大意，判断文章体裁，以便更好地把握文章结构。2.瞻前顾后，逐句细读(1)根据选项的不同词义判断答案(2)根据词汇的固定用法判断答案3) 根据社会及生活常识推断答案(4) 根据上下文所提供的信息判断答案(5)根据上下文的逻辑推理判断答案3、认真审读，仔细验证

    The most frightening words in the English language are “our computer is down.” You hear it more and more when you are on business. The other day I was at the airport waiting for a ticket to Washington and the girl in the ticket office said, “I’m sorry, I can’t sell you a ticket. Our computer is down.”
    “If your computer is down, just write me out a ticket.”
    “I can’t write you out a ticket. The computer is the only one allowed to do so.” I looked down at the counter and every passenger was just standing there drinking coffee and staring at the black screen. Then I asked her, “What do you do?”
    “We give the computer the information about your trip, and then it tells us whether you can fly with us or not.”
    “So when it goes down, you go down with it.”
    “That’s right, sir.”
    “How long will the computer be down?” I wanted to know.
    “I have no idea. Sometimes it’s down for 10 minutes, sometimes for two hours. There is no way we can find out without asking the computer, and since it’s down, it won’t answer us.”
    After the girl told me they had no backup computer, I said, “Let’s forget the computer. What about your planes? They are still flying, aren’t they?”
    “I can’t tell without asking the computer.”
    “Maybe I could just go to the gate and ask the pilot if he’s flying to Washington.” I suggested.
    “I wouldn’t know what gate to send you to. Even if the pilot was going to Washington, he couldn’t take you if you didn’t have a ticket.”
    “Is there any other airline flying to Washington within the next few hours?”
    “I wouldn’t know,” she said, pointing at the desk screen. “Only IT knows. It can’t tell me.”
    By this time there were quite a few people standing in line. The words soon spread to other travelers that the computer was down. Some people went, some people started to cry and still others kicked their luggage.
    小题1:The word “down” in the sentence ‘Our computer is down.’ means _____________.
    A．fallingB．downcastC．dropD．dead
    小题2:The best title of the article is _________.
    A．Asking the Computer
    B．The Computer of the Airport
    C．The Most Frightening Words
    D．When the Computer Is Down
    小题3:What could the girl in the ticket office do for the passengers without asking the computer?
    A．She could answer the passengers’ questions
    B．She could do nothing.
    C．She could sell a ticket.
    D．She could write out a ticket.

    When I was young, my father used to grow carnations — a kind of flower that was red, pink or white. He took care of them with much love and devotion. Every day he came home from work, he would enjoy watching them. And he used to tell us, “No one should touch my flowers.”
    One day, my younger sister Clemence, who loved dad very much, wanted to help him. So she cut the carnation from their stems（枝干）one by one and arranged them on the ground. She believed that dad would be very pleased to see them that way.
    When mom and I realized what my sister had done, we became completely speechless. However, my sister had no idea why no one showed her any appreciation. When dad arrived, he went as usual straight to watch the flowers. Seeing his flowers lying on the ground like dead animals, he was shocked at first. He looked towards the street to see if it was any of the neighbors’ children who could have done it. Then he looked at mom in silence. Finally mom, who always taught us to tell the truth no matter what, said, “No bad neighbors did this great job, only your lovely daughter Clemence.”
    Dad’s face changed into a smile and then he said, “Do I have better flower than my lovely daughter?” My younger sister smiled and hugged（拥抱）dad strongly.

    Greg Woodburn, a student at the University of Southern California, spends a lot of time cleaning sneakers he collected．But soon the shoes will be sent to poor children in the United States and 20 other countries, thanks to Woodburn’s Share Our Soles (S.O.S.) charity．
    A high school track star in the town of Ventura, California, Woodburn was treated in hospital for months with knee and hip injuries．
    “I started thinking about the health benefits, the friendship and the confidence I got from running,” he says, “And I realized there are children who don’t even have shoes．”
    Woodburn gathered up his old sneakers, then asked his friends to donate．His goal was to have 100 pairs by Christmas this year．When he collected more than 500 pairs, he decided to turn the shoe drive into a year-round endeavor．
    Back then, the sneakers came from donation boxes at the YMCA and the local sporting goods store and from door-to-door pickups．Woodburn has now set up collection boxes at two high schools, city gym and recreation center．He has started accepting adult sizes and sandals．So far, S.O.S has collected and donated more than 3,000 pairs．

    To ship the footwear, Woodburn teamed with Sports Gift, a nonprofit organization that provides soccer and baseball equipment to children around the world．Keven Baxter, founder and president, says, “We’d send kids balls and shoes．I've heard that for many of these kids, these old sneakers are the only shoes they had．They wear them to school and to do sports．So Greg’s running shoes were a nice addition for us．”
    For many recipients, the shoes represent opportunity．Two young boys in Southern California attended school on alternate days because they shared a pair of shoes．They were too big for one boy and too small for the other．Thanks to S.O.S., each brother received his own pair of shoes．The boys now attend school daily and enjoy their learning．When they graduate, they say, they will help a stranger, just as Woodburn helped them．
    小题1:What caused Greg Woodburn to donate old shoes for poor children?
    A．The benefits from playing sports．
    B．News about some poor children．
    C．His reflection to school life．
    D．The medical treatment he received．

    C．collect shoes throughout the year
    D．expand his endeavor in the whole city
    小题3:How did Woodburn manage to deliver the shoes collected?
    A．By sending them by mail．
    B．By working with Sports Gift．
    C．By advertising for those in need．
    D．By offering them from door to door．
    小题4:What can we learn from Keven Baxter’s remarks?
