My nephew’s 10-year-old son came for a visit one hot, July weekend. I persuaded him to   inside and joined him in a game. After  for an hour, I suggested that we relax for a while. I fell into my favorite recliner(躺椅)to let my neck muscles relax. He'd slipped out of the room and I was catching a few   moments of peace and quiet.
"Look,Alice,” he said  as he ran over to the chair where I was sitting "I found a kite. Could we go outside and   it?"
Glancing out a nearby window, I noticed it was  outside. “I'm sorry, Tripper,.” I said, sad to see his   eyes. "The wind is not blowing today. The kite won't fly.”
The  10-year-old replied, “I think it's    enough. I can get it to fly,” he answered as he ran out to the back door   .
Up and down in the yard he ran, pulling the kite   to a small length of string. He ran back and forth,as hard as his ten year-old    would carry him, looking back  at the kite behind. After about ten minutes of   determination, he came back in.
I asked, "How did it go?"
"Fine,”he said, not wanting to admit   .“I got it to fly some”
As he walked past me to return the kite to the closet shelf, I heard him say under his breath, "I guess I'll have to wait for the  .”
At that moment I heard another Voice speak to my   . "Alice, sometimes you are just like that. You want to do it your way   waiting for the Wind.”
And the voice was right. We usually want to use our own efforts to   what we want to do. We wait for the Wind only after we have done all we can and have exhausted(耗尽)our own   .We must learn how to rely on Him in the first place!

阅读下面短文,用英语回答文后所给的5个问题。
Bacteria(细菌) are extremely small living things. While we measure our own sizes in inches or centimeters, bacterial size is measured in micron. One micron is a thousandth of a millimeter; a pinhead is about a millimeter across. Rod-shaped bacteria are usually from two to four microns long, while rounded ones are generally one micron across. Thus, if you magnified a rounded bacterium a thousand times, it would be just the size of a pinhead, while a grown-up human enlarged by the same amount would be over a mile tall.
Even with an ordinary microscope(显微镜), you must look closely to see bacteria. Using a magnification of 100 times, one can hardly find bacteria. Nor can one make out anything of their structure(结构), of course. Only by using special colors, can one see that some bacteria have wavy-looking “hairs” called flagella. Others have only one flagellum. The flagella move round a central point, pushing the bacteria through the water. Many bacteria lack flagella and cannot move about by their own power, while others can move along over surface by some little-understood “machinery”.
From the bacterial point of view, the world is a very different place from what it is to humans. To a bacterium, water is as thick as molasses(糖浆) is to us. Bacteria are so small that they are affected by the movements of the chemical molecules(分子) around them. Bacteria under microscopes, even those with no flagella, often jump up and down in the water. This is because they knock with the water molecules and are pushed this way and that.
47. What does the underlined word “magnified” mean?
________________________________________________________________
48. What is the smallest according to the passage?
________________________________________________________________
49. What is the relationship between a bacterium and its flagella is most nearly like?
________________________________________________________________
50. Why does the writer compare water to molasses in the third paragraph?
________________________________________________________________

At McCarley’s Bookstore I always sensed I was working for the         , not the store. Today it’s        . NBC News pays my salary, but I feel as if I work for the        , through my “Today” show, helping them make        of the world.

One night, when I was eight , my mother gently asked me a question I would never forget. “Sweetie, my company wants to       me but needs me to work in Brazil. This is like your teacher telling that you’ve done        and allowing you to skip a grade(跳级), but you’ll have to       your friends. Would you say yes to your teacher?” She gave me a hug and asked me to think about it. I was puzzled. The question kept me     for the rest of the night I had said “yes” but for the first time, I realized the     decisions adults had to make.
For almost four years, my mother would call us from Brazil every day. Every evening I’d        wait for the phone to ring and then tell her every detail of my day. A phone call, however, could never replace her       and it was difficult not to feel lonely at times.
During my fourth-grade Christmas break, we flew to Rio to visit her. Looking at her large       apartment, I became       how lonely my mother must have been in Brazil herself. It was then     I started to appreciate the tough choices she had to make on       family and work.       difficult decisions, she used to tell me, you wouldn’t know whether you make the right choice, but you could always make the best out of the situation, with passion and a       attitude.
Back home , I       myself that what my mother could do, I could, too. If she        to live in Rio all by herself, I, too, could learn to be       . I learn how to take care of myself and set high but achievable    .
My mother is now back with us. But I will never forget what the       has really taught me. Sacrifices       in the end. The separation between us has proved to be       for me.

While the presence of rats in homes may cause anxiety and annoyance, they rarely result in driving out the residents. But that is exactly what happened to the inhabitants of the 10­square­mile Hawadax Island off the coast of Alaska, almost 230 years ago. Now thanks to a five­year effort by scientists, the terribly silent “Rat Island” as it had been called for many years has been returned to its rightful owners ——birds!
Hawadax Island is part of a chain of volcanic islands in the Bering Sea called the Aleutian Islands. The rats that arrived there in 1780, when a Japanese ship carrying them broke down nearby, completely destroyed the native population because the environment of the island was not built to defend its animals from these predators. There isn't any tree on the Island, which meant that the birds were accustomed to building their nests low in the ground, giving the rodents(啮齿动物) easy access to both eggs and baby chicks. As years passed, the birds that had called the island home for thousands of years became endangered and eventually, disappeared completely.
In 2007, the U.S. FWS (Fish and Wildlife Service) started a serious plan to rid the island of the rats and try bringing back the beautiful birds that had once called it home. Given that there were an estimated 10,000 rodents inhabiting “Rat Island” and the fact that they re­produce rapidly, it was not an easy task. But by 2009, the Island was officially declared rat free!
Then slowly but surely, the birds began to return. Unfortunately, some of the pioneers were unintentionally killed from the leavings of the raticide, a poison that had been used to wipe out the rodents. But now it seems things are becoming more stable and the Island is starting to increasingly look like its former self. Before the transformation, “Hawadax”, also known as “Rat Island”, was a silent and ghostly place with bird bones, snail remains and rocks covered in rat feces(粪便).
Today, birds' singing and flying in and out is a common sight. Tufted puffins and song sparrows, which had long disappeared, are gradually making their way back. Scientists have also been observing an increase in ground nesting and shorebirds. Though the Island is still not back to its full glory, the signs are encouraging and things can only get better, as time passes.
小题1:The underlined word “that”in Para.1 probably refers to ________.
A.the presence of rats
B.birds' being driven out
C.birds' returning to the island
D.residents' worrying about rats
小题2:Birds on Hawadax Island became an easy target because ________.
A.this island was treeless
B.they nested randomly
C.they reproduced too rapidly
D.their chicks were extremely weak
小题3:From the passage, we can know the plan of US FWS ______.
A.has helped the island fully recovered
B.cost little but benefited greatly
C.involved poisoning the rats on a large scale
D.accomplished its goal after exactly 24 months
小题4:Which would be the best title for the passage?
A.FWS Help Get Rare Birds Back to Alaska Island
B.Japanese Changed a Bird Paradise into Rat Island
C.FWS Plan to Drive Rats Out Of Rat Island
D.Alaska's Rat Island Returns to a Bird Paradise
