    Ricochet, a 19-month-old golden retriever（金毛寻回犬）, was bred(饲养) to be a service dog but never made it. Now, she has found her role in the ocean, surfing with a disabled teen.
    Patrick Ivison, 15, suffered a severe injury in a car accident when he was 14 months old. He has been disabled since, but the Californian boy never gave up on the goal of walking. He recently took his first steps. When Ivison first met Ricochet, the two immediately hit it off. To raise money for Ivison’s physical therapy(治疗), which is not covered by insurance, it was suggested that the pair take up surfing. Ivison said that when he first heard the idea he thought, “We are completely out of our minds.”
    But from the start, the two took to surfing naturally. With the help of his mom, Jennifer Kayler, and friends, who carry Patrick to the ocean and guide the extra-large surfboard into the waters, Ivison rides the waves with his pal standing on the back. “It’s kind of like a grand performance out there,” Ivison said of the group of people who help him out. The dog helps to balance out the board The teen remembered one pass when “we were about to flip over and then she stepped on that side of the board and helped us out.”
    The two participated Sunday in the Surf City Surf Dog contest as a fund-raiser(募集资金者). They wowed the cheering crowd during their exhibition. The event raised $8,200. About $2,000 will go toward a service dog for Ivison, and the rest will go toward his “Help Patrick Walk” therapy fund.

    Just not a long time ago did I finish my blog about the unforgettable snowy storm that I had on Monday night in November. I got another big   36  in Seattle again.

    That    39  storm was so powerful that it    40  the whole big Seattle area out of    41  . 700,000 people had no electricity, and    42  13 people have died.

It was my last test for the   51   , and I already made a plan for the time after the test, but now    52  is changed.
    I guess sometimes, the way that the thing    53  is not always what you    54  . And what I can do now is to fit for it.   55  , we got a free hotel room from my husband's cousin and met my lovely nephew from San Francisco.

    Johnson was the longest survivor born HIV positive（艾滋病病毒携带者）.He survived with this deadly disease for 12 years before it claimed his life.
    At first, Johnson was expected to live for nine months when his foster mother, Gail Johnson took him in at the age of two. She now runs Nkosi’s Haven across town from her house in Melville. The Haven is home to 20 children living with HIV or AIDS, and 11 of their mothers.

    A university graduate described as a “respectable and intelligent” woman is seeking professional help after being convicted of （证明有……罪）shoplifting for the second time in six months.
    Ana Luz, recently studying for her PhD, has been told she could end up behind bars unless she can control the desire to steal from shops.
    Luz ,who lives with her partner in Fitzwilliam Road, Cambridge, admitted stealing clothes worth ￡9.95 from John Lewis in Oxford Street, London, on March 9.
    Phillip Lemoyne, prosecuting（起诉）,said Luz selected some clothes from a display and took them to the ladies’ toilet in the store .When she came out again she was wearing one of the skirts she had selected, having taken off the anti-theft security alarms（防盗警报装置）.
    She was stopped and caught after leaving the store without paying, Mr. Lemoyne said.
    He added that she was upset on her arrest and apologized for her actions.
    Luz, 28, was said to have been convicted of shoplifting by Cambridge judges last October, but Morag Duff, defending, said she had never been in trouble with the police before that.
    “She is ashamed and embarrassed but doesn’t really have any explanation why she did this,” Miss Duff said. “She didn’t intend to steal when she went into the store. She is at a loss to explain it. She is otherwise a very respectable and intelligent young lady. She went to her doctor and asked for advice because she wants to know if there is anything in particular that caused her to do this.”
    Judge David Azan fined Luz ￡ 50,  and warned : “You’ve got a criminal record .If you carry on like this ,you will end up in prison ,which will ruin your bright future you may have.”
    Luz achieved a degree in design at university in her native Spain, went on to a famous university in Berlin, Germany for her master’s degree and is now studying for a PhD at Cambridge University, UK.
    小题1: What does the underlined sentence “She is at a loss to explain it” mean?
    A．In her opinion it was a loss to the clothes shops where she stole things.
    B．She doesn’t have any idea why she has the desire to steal from shops.
    C．She thinks it is a loss for her to explain why she stole things from shops.
    D．Personally she feels ashamed and embarrassed for her shoplifting actions.
    小题2:Which of the following best explains the meaning of the word “shoplifting” used in the passage?
    A．Carrying goods in a lift for a shop.B．Taking goods to the ladies’ toilet.
    C．Selecting some goods from a display.D．Taking goods from a shop without paying.
    小题3:From the passage we can learn that          .
    A．Ana Luz is already got her PhD at Cambridge University, UK
    B．Ana Luz is ashamed and embarrassed and knows why she often did so
    C．the university graduate will be put in prison if she steals in shops once more
    D．Phillip Lemoyne is the “respectable and intelligent” woman’s defense lawyer

    My school makes students take one religion (宗教) class every year. But religion is really hard, especially with Mr Frank Smith for a teacher.
    Mr Smith is 55 years old, with grey hair and a moustache (胡子). He always wears a blue school T-shirt, shorts and tennis shoes with long white socks. My friends say he looks like a cat.
    In his class, we did yoga (瑜珈) and meditation (冥想) (actually most of the children in my class lay on the ground sleeping), tasted some strange tea, had classes outside in the garden, and watched videos and movies about Tibetan Buddhism (藏传佛教), God, and so on.
    It was fun sometimes. However, the course (课程) was quite hard when it came to tests. The girls often worked until one or two o'clock in the morning on nights before the tests, but they still got bad scores.
    When our test scores were bad, he would give us some makeup assignments (补考作业). Once I got a B, which I thought was bad, so I asked Mr Smith for an assignment to bring up my grades.
    As a matter of fact, his assignments were often worse than the tests. The tests were just a lot of multiple-choice, fill-in-the-blanks, or short essays (文章). But his assignments usually included a speech in class.
    I was not afraid of public speaking, yet it took me three days to collect the information, two days to write the speech, one day to make a PowerPoint and several hours to prepare. I knew my presentation (课堂展示) was good, because I saw Mr Smith's big smile when he listened to me. He gave me an A at last.
    After finishing the course, I may not remember how hard it was or the meaning of some vocabulary. But through Mr Smith, I learned a lesson that will be with me my whole life. That is: no matter what we do, we need to put our hearts into it, and then our work will pay off.
    小题1:The religion class is hard because Mr Smith _______.
    A．uses strange ways to teach in his class.
    B．never gives good scores, however hard you try.
    C．gives difficult tests and make-up assignments.
    D．likes students to make good presentations.
    小题2: How could students get good scores in Mr. Smith’s class?
    A．Work hard by studying late into the night.
    B．Remember all of the vocabulary.
    C．Pay attention and take notes in class.
    D．Do well on the make-up assignment.
    小题3:From the course, the writer learned that ____.
    A．people should always be given a second chance
    B．people should always put their hearts into their work
    C．it is good to do yoga and meditation
    D．it is good to choose strict teacher

    Magic is believed to have begun with the Egyptians, in 1700 BC. A magician named Dedi of Dedsnefu was reported to have performed for the pharaoh, or the king. He was also known to have entertained the slaves who built the pyramids. The "Cups and Balls" trick which he was particularly good at is still performed by magicians all over the world today.
    The ancient Greeks and Romans were also fascinated by the idea of magic. Actually, one of their main interests was the art of deception（欺骗）. This explains why at that time the priests（神父） even built magic devices into their temples. These devices made it possible for doors to open by themselves and wine to flow magically out of statues' mouths. This was done mainly to convince people that the priests were powerful.
    Magic, however, was not well accepted before the 1800s. Magicians were thought of as freaks（怪物） and were only allowed to perform in a circus（马戏团）. It was in the 19th century that the magician Robert Houdin came along and changed people's views and attitudes about magic. It was also because of Robert Houdin that many magicians were able to add Dr. or MD to their names. Today magicians try hard to find new ways to show their practiced skills. Magic is now entertainment for families all over the world.
    小题1: What would be the best title for the passage?
    A．Magical Tricks B．The History of Magic
    C．Magic as Entertainment D．A Great Magician
    小题2:In ancient Greece, what did the priests do to show people they had unusual power?
    A．They performed magical tricks to entertain people.
    B．They made the statues in the temples drink wine as they wished.
    C．They treated the people with wine flowing down from statues' mouths.
    D．They built magic devices in the temples to make doors open by themselves.
    小题3: What did people think of magic before 1800?
    A．Magic should be used only in temples.
    B．Magic could only be performed in a circus.
    C．Magic was performed by freaks and doctors.
    D．Magic was the major daily activity for the pharaohs.
    小题4:Which of the following statements is true?
    A．Magic began about 3,700 years ago.
    B．Dedi of Dedsnefu performed magic for kings only.
    C．Robert Houdin was the first magician to perform magic.
    D．The "Cups and Balls" trick has been performed for about 1,700 years.

    In a country that defines itself by ideals, not by shared blood, who should be allowed to come to work and live here? In the wake of the Sept．11 attacks these questions have never seemed more pressing．
    On Dec．11, 2001, as part of the effort to increase homeland security, federal and local authorities in 14 states staged “Operation Safe Travel”---raids on airports to arrest employees with false identification．In Salt Lake City there were 69 arrests．But those captures were anything but terrorists, most of them illegal immigrants from Central or South America．Authorities said the undocumented workers’ illegal status made them open to blackmail（讹诈）by terrorists．
    Many immigrants in Salt Lake City were angered by the arrests and said they felt as if they were being treated like disposable goods．Mayor Anderson said those feelings were justified to a certain extent．“We’re saying we want you to work in these places, we’re going to look the other way in terms of what our laws are, and then when it’s convenient for us, or when we can try to make a point in terms of national security, especially after Sept．11, then you’re disposable．They are whole families being uprooted for all of the wrong reasons,” Anderson said．
    If Sept．11 had never happened, the airport workers would not have been arrested and could have gone on quietly living in America, probably indefinitely．Ana Castro, a manager at a Ben & Jerry’s ice cream shop at the airport had been working 10 years with the same false Social Security card when she was arrested in the December airport raid．Now she and her family are living under the threat of deportation（驱逐出境）．Castro’s case is currently waiting to be settled．While she awaits the outcome, the government has granted her permission to work here and she has returned to her job at Ben & Jerry’s．
    小题1:How did the immigrants in Salt Lake City feel about “Operation Safe Travel”?
    A．GuiltyB．OffendedC．DisappointedD．Discouraged
    小题2:Undocumented workers became the target of “Operation Safe Travel” because ____．
    A．evidence was found that they were potential terrorists
    B．most of them worked at airports under threat of terrorists
    C．terrorists might take advantage of their illegal status
    D．they were reportedly helping hide terrorists around the airport
    小题3:By saying “…we’re going to look the other way in terms of what our laws are”, Mayor Anderson means “______”．
    A．there are other ways of enforcing the law
    B．we will examine the laws in a different way
    C．we will turn a blind eye to your illegal status
    D．the existing laws must not be ignored
