    A boy was walking home from school when he saw a large, tempting （诱人的）apple on one of the branches of an apple tree hanging out over a tall fence. The boy wasn’t much of a fruit-eater,  36 a bar of chocolate if given the choice,     37   , as they say, the forbidden fruit can be tempting. Seeing the apple, the boy wanted it. The more he looked at it, the   38   he felt and the more he wanted that apple.
    39  as high as he could, but even as his tallest  40  he was unable to touch It. He began to  41 up and down , as high as he could, at the  42  of each jump stretching his arms to get the apple . Still it remained out of 43 .   Not giving up , he though , if only he had something to  44  on . His school bag wouldn’t give enough height and he didn’t want to  45  the things inside , like his lunch box , pencil case , and Gameboy. Looking  46  , he hoped he might find an old box , a rock , or ,   47  luck , even a ladder , but it was a tidy neighborhood and there was nothing he could use. He had tired everything he could think to do.   48  seeing any other choices , he gave up and started to walk   49  . At first he felt angry and disappointed thinking about how hungry he had become from his  50  , and how he really wanted that apple . The more he  51 like this , the more unhappy he became.
    52  ,the boy of our story was a pretty smart guy, even if he couldn’t always get what get he wanted .He started to say to himself . This isn’t    53    ,I   don’t have the apple and I’m feeling miserable as well.There’s 54   more I can do to get the apple-that is unchangeable-but we are supposed to be able to  55  our feelings. If that’s the case, what can I do to feel better?

    Brownie and Spotty were neighbor dogs who met every day to play together. Like pairs of dogs you  36  find in most any neighborhood, these two loved each other and played  37  so often that they had worn a path through the grass of the field between their own houses.
    One evening, Brownie’s family  38  that Brownie hadn’t returned home. They went looking for him with no  39 .Brownie didn’t appear the next day, and, despite their  40 to find him, by the next week he was still missing.
    Curiously, Spotty  41  at Brownie’s house alone, barking. Busy with their own lives, they just ignored(不理睬)the  42  little neighbor dog.
    Finally, one morning Spotty  43  to take “no” for an answer. Spotty followed Ted about, barking strongly, then running towards a nearby wood, as if to say “ 44  me! It’s urgent!”
    Finally, Ted followed the anxious Spotty. The little dog led the man to a  45  spot a half mile from the house. There Ted found his beloved Brownie  46 , one of his hind legs stuck in a steel leg hold trap. Horrified, Ted now wished he’d taken Spotty’s earlier requirement  47 .Then Ted noticed something quite remarkable.
    Spotty had done more than simply  48  Brownie’s human owner to his trapped friend. In a circle around the  49  dog. Ted found some dog food---which was later  50  as the remains of every meal Spotty had been fed that  516  !
    Spotty had been visiting Brownie  52 , in a single-minded quest to keep his friend alive by offering his own comfort. Spotty had obviously stayed with Brownie to protect him from being hurt, snuggling(依偎) with him at night to keep him  53  and touching him gently with its nose to keep his spirits up.
    Brownie’s leg was treated by a veterinarian and he re-covered. For many years afterward, the two  54  watched the faithful friends frolicking(嬉戏) 55  chasing each other down that well-worn path between their houses.

    …That’s my second piece of advice, very simple: Don’t make excuses. Take responsibility not just for your successes; take responsibility where you fall short as well.
    Now, the truth is, no matter how hard you work, you’re not going to ace (取得好成绩) every class. You’re not going to succeed the first time you try something. There are going to be times when you screw up (弄糟). There will be times where you hurt people you love. There will be times when you make a mistake and you stray (偏离) from the values that you hold most deeply.
    And when that happens, it’s the easiest thing in the world to start looking around for somebody else to blame. Your professor was too hard; the coaches were playing favorites; your friend just didn’t understand.
    No, but this is an easy habit to get into. You see it every day in Washington — every day -—folks calling each other names, making all sorts of accusations on television. Everybody is always pointing a finger at somebody else. You notice that?
    Now, this community could have easily gone down that road. This community could have made excuses — well, our kids have fewer advantages, our schools have fewer resources — how can we compete? You could have spent years pointing fingers— blaming parents, blaming teachers, blaming the principal , blaming the superintendent.
    But that’s — Class of 2010, I want you to pay attention on this because that’s not what happened. Instead, this community was honest with itself about where you were falling short. You decided to do better, push your kids harder, open their minds wider, expose them to all kinds of ideas and people and experiences.
    So, graduates, I hope you’ll continue those efforts. Don’t make excuses. And I hope that wherever you go, you won’t narrow the broad intellectual and social exposure you’ve had here at Kalamazoo Central — instead, seek to expand it. Don’t just hang out with people who look like you or share your political views. Broaden your circle to include people with different backgrounds and life experiences, because that’s how you’ll end up learning what it’s like to walk in somebody else’s shoes. That’s how you’ll come to understand the challenges other people face.
    And this is not just an academic exercise. It’s a way to broaden your ambit (范围) of concern and learn to see yourselves in each other.
    —adapted from US President Barack Obama’s graduation ceremony speech at the Kalamazoo Central High School.
    小题1: The underlined words “fall short” in Paragraph 1 probably mean         .
    A．make a decision B．begin to experience something
    C．have someone else to blame D．fail to reach a standard
    小题2: The underlined word “this” in Paragraph 4 refers to         .
    A．misunderstanding your friendsB．straying from the values you hold
    C．making accusations on televisionD．blaming someone else for your mistake
    小题3: We can infer from Paragraphs 5 and 6 that the community         .
    A．has got used to making excusesB．has lived up to its responsibility
    C．is satisfied with itselfD．provides fewer resources than it used to
    小题4: In the last two paragraphs, Obama calls on the graduates to         .
    A．welcome different ideas, people and experiences
    B．participate in as many social activities as they can
    C．make friends with people who share their polit­ical views
    D．be honest and concerned about the community

    Hobbs was an orphan（孤儿）. He worked in a factory and every day he got a little money. Hard work made him thin and weak. He wanted to borrow a lot of money to learn to paint pictures, but he did not think he could pay off the debts.
    One day a lawyer said to him, “One thousand dollars, and here is the money.” As Hobbs took the package of notes, he was very dumbfounded. He didn’t know where the money came from and how to spend it. He said to himself, “I could go to find a hotel and live like a rich man for a few days; or I give up my work in the factory and do what I’d like to do: painting pictures. I could do that for a few weeks, but what would I do after that? I should have lost my place in the factory and have no money to live on. If it were a little less money, I would buy a new coat, or a radio, or give a dinner to my friends. If it were more, I could give up the work and pay for painting pictures. But it’s too much for one and too little for the other.”
    “Here is the reading of your uncle’s will（遗嘱）,” said the lawyer, “telling what is to be done with this money after his death. I must ask you to remember one point. Your uncle has said you must bring me a paper showing exactly what you did with his money, as soon as you have spent it.”
    “Yes, I see. I’ll do that,” said the young man.
    小题1:.. Hobbs wanted to borrow money to _______.
    A．study abroadB．work abroad

    In a surprising discovery about where higher life can survive, scientists have found a shrimp -like creature and a jellyfish swimming beneath an Antarctic ice sheet.
    About 180 meters below the ice where no light can get through, scientists had figured nothing much more than a few microbes (微生物) could exist.
    That’s why a NASA team was surprised when they lowered a video camera to get the first long look at the underbelly of an ice sheet in Antarctica. A curious shrimp-like creature came swimming by and then parked itself on the camera’s cable. Scientists also pulled up a tentacle (触须) they believe came from a jellyfish.
    “We were operating on the presumption that nothing’s there.” said NASA ice scientist Robert Bindschadler. “It was a shrimp you’d enjoy having on your plate.”
    “We were just gaga (狂热的) over it,” he said when talking about the 7.5cm long, orange creature starring in their two-minute video. Technically, it’s not a shrimp. It’s a Lyssianasid amphipod, which is distantly related to the shrimp.
    The video is likely to inspire experts to rethink what they know about life in harsh environments. And it has scientists thinking that if shrimp-like creatures can live below 180 meters of Antarctic ice in freezing dark water, what about other cold places? What about Europa, a frozen moon of Jupiter?
    Cynan Ellis – Evans, a scientist of the British Antarctic Survey called the finding fascinating. He said it was possible the creatures swam in from far away and don’t live there permanently.
    But Kim, who is a co-author of the study, doubts it. “The site in West Antarctica is at least 19 km from open seas. Bindschadler drilled a 20 cm-wide hole and was looking at a tiny amount of water. That means it’s unlikely that two creatures swam from great distances and were captured randomly in that small area,” she said.
    “Yet scientists were puzzled at what the food source would be for these creatures. While some microbes can make their own food out of chemicals in the ocean, complex life like the shrimp can’t,” Kim said.
    “So how do they survive? That’s the key question.” Kim said.
    “It’s pretty amazing when you find a huge puzzle like that on a planet where we thought we know everything.” Kim said.
