    Those days life was so hard that I finally wished that I could just be “left alone”.
    The thought of going somewhere by myself would give me so much  1 . but then I’d remember when I was alone. Not that  2 _ left me. I was alone by myself in crowded places. It was the   3  that I built around me that would not  4  the outside in or the inside out.
    When I was a child, I would play this silly   5 . It was always   6 _ because a place in a corner or under a table would do. My favorite place was simply to pull a blanket over my head. I would lie there and   7 , “Right now no one in the world knows where I am!” That thought was so   8 .
    If you knew me well enough this wouldn’t   9  you…I still do it at 60. It drives my dogs crazy, because they find me and start digging at the blanket until they find a way in. All three of them  10  me. That thought is so satisfying, too.
    I want you to know that at times we all wish that we could be left _11  . The fact that you can be alone with yourself and enjoy it shows clearly who you are. Imagine for a  12  being locked in a room with someone you  13 . It would be torture. So, if you find peace with being with yourself, that is good. However, if you are trying to build a wall so no one can ever  14 , it can’t happen.
    The light of love can find a  15  through the tiniest cracks. You can pull the covers over your head and love will find you.

    Last weekends, my kids along with few other kids from the neighborhood volunteered to help me wash my car. My 10-year-old daughter came up with the idea of   31  other people’s cars as well. It was pretty   32  outside and I had no plans to   33  to be in the bright sun. She   34  wanted to give lemonade（柠檬汽水）to passersby for free. I had seen little kids  35  and sell fresh lemonade for a small cost but not free. Although I felt   36  , I decided to help her.  37 she asked me, “What if we   38  this a smile car wash?” I couldn’t hold back my tears and   39  her and the other kids to go outside the house and come up with   40  ideas. While I kept myself busy in drying the car, the gang walked up to me with a(n)   41  with beautiful images of smiles. They had “Free Car Wash” written on it and the   42 of their exercise was “smile”. It was pretty neat to see a team of kids ranging 5－11 years with the   43  to do something for others.
    All that seemed   44  and came right from their heart. Nothing seemed to   45  to them: their playtime, the heat outside—they just wanted to   46  others and do something nice in the community!
    I helped them make some fresh lemonade and brought out some additional   47  to help clean cars. The passersby were   48  and one even shouted back to them saying “God Bless You, my kids…” One of them even tried giving them 5 dollars, which they refused. A pretty heartwarming   49 ! I feel blessed by being   50  by such wonderful and loving souls.

    Tim Richter and his wife, Linda, had taught for over 30 years near Buffalo, New York--he in computers, she in special education. "Teaching means everything to us," Tim would say. In April1998, he learned he would need a heart operation. It was the kind of news that leads to some serious thinking about life's purpose.
    Not long after the surgery, Tim saw a brochure describing Imagination Library, a program started by Dolly Parton' s foundation (基金会) that mailed a book every month to children from birth to age five in the singer's home town of Sevier, Tennessee.“I thought, maybe Linda and I could do something like this when we retire," Tim recalls.  He placed the brochure on his desk, "as a reminder."
    Five years later, now retired and with that brochure still on the desk, Tim clicked on imagination library .com. The program had been opened up to partners who could take advantage of book and postage discounts.
    The quality of the books was of great concern to the Richters. Rather than sign up online, they went to Dollywood for a look-see. “We didn’t want to give the children rubbish,” says Linda. The books-reviewed each year by teachers, literacy specialists and Dollywood board members-included classics such as Ezra Jack Keats’s The Snowy Day and newer books like Anna Dewdney’s Llama Llama series.
    Satisfied, the couple set up the Richter Family Foundation and got to work. Since 2004, they have shipped more than 12,200 books to preschoolers in their in their area. Megan Williams, a mother of four, is more than appreciative: “This program introduces us to books I’ve never heard of .”
    The Richters spend about ＄400 a month sending books to 200 children. “Some people sit there and wait to die,” says Tim. “Others get as busy as they can in the time they have left.”
    小题1:
    What led Tim to think seriously about the meaning of life?
    A．His health problem.B．His love for teaching.
    C．The influence of his wife.D．The news from the Web.
    小题2:
    What did Tim want to do after learning about Imagination Library?
    A．Give out brochures.B．Do something similar.
    C．Write books for childrenD．Retire from being a teacher.
    小题3:
    According to the text, Dollly Parton is           .
    A．a well-known surgeonB．a mother of a four-year-old
    C．a singer born in TennesseeD．a computer programmer
    小题4:
    Why did the Richters go to Dollywood?
    A．To avoid signing up online.
    B．To meet Dollywood board members.
    C．To make sure the books were the newest.
    D．To see if the books were of good quality.
    小题5:
    What can we learn from Tim’s words in the last paragraph?
    A．He needs more money to help the children.
    B．He wonders why some people are so busy.
    C．He tries to save those waiting to die.
    D．Hconsiders his efforts worthwhile.

    In the fall of 1985. I was a bright-eyed girl heading off to Howard University, aiming at a legal career and dreaming of sitting on a Supreme Court bench somewhere. Twenty-one years later I am later I am still a bright-eyed dreamer and one with quite a different tale to tell.
    My grandma, an amazing woman, graduated from college an the age of 65. She was the first in our family to reach that goal. But one year after I started college, she developed cancer. I made the choice to withdraw from college to care for her. It meant that school and my personal dream would have to wait.
    Then I got married with another dream: building my family with a combination of adopt and biological children. In 1999, we adopted our first son. To lay eyes on him was fantastic---and very emotional. A year later came our second adopted boy. Then followed son No. 3. In 2003, I gave birth to another boy.
    You can imagine how fully occupied I became, raising four boys under the age of 81. Our home was a complete zoo---a joyous zoo. Not surprising, I never did make it back to college full-time. But I never gave up on the dream either. I had only one choice: to find a way. That meant talking as few as one class each semester.
    The hardest part was feeling guilty about the time I spent away from the boys. They often wanted me to stay home with them. There certainly were times I wanted to quit, But I knew I should set an example for them to follow through the rest of their lives.
    In 2007, I graduated from the University of North Carolina. It took me over 21 years to get my college degree！
    I am not special, just single-minded. It always struck me that when you’re looking at a big challenge from the outside it looks huge, but when you’re in the midst of it, it just seems normal. Everything you want won’t arrive in your life on one day. It’s a process. Remember；little steps add up to big dreams.

    She was buy yet happy with her family life.
    She ignored her guilty feeling for her sons.
    She wanted to remain a full-time housewife.

    When we think about giving help to developing countries, we often think about giving money so that these countries can build schools and hospitals, buy food and medicine, or find clean water supplies. These seem to be the most important basic needs of the people we are trying to help. However, it's far from enough. Ladies and gentlemen, we've got to come up with some better ideas to help them.
    I was very surprised, then, when I read about a plan to make cheap laptop computers for children in developing countries. A man called Nicholas Negroponte invented a cheap laptop computer and he planed to produce a lot and sell them to the children in developing countries at a low price after he visited a school in Cambodia. The laptop will be covered in rubber so that it is very strong and won't be damaged easily. The idea is that these computers will help the children's education as they will be able to surf the Internet. By improving children's education they should help people to find their own solutions to their problems in the long term.
    Another idea to help children in developing countries is to recycle old mobile phones so that they can be used again. In the UK, and probably in many other countries too, millions of mobile phones are thrown away every year. The waste created by throwing away these old phones is very bad for the environment, so it seems to be an excellent idea to recycle them. In this way we will be able to achieve two important goals at the same time. We will reduce the waste we produce and help others. In other words, we will be able to 'kill two birds with one stone’, and that is always a good thing.
    小题1:
    It's an excellent idea to recycle old mobile phones because        .
    A．it reduces waste and can help others
    B．it prevents waste and can earn lots of money
    C．it can send the waste produced by developed countries to other countries
    D．it is good for the environment and very educative for phone users
    小题2:
    The author gives the example of Mr. Negroponte’s cheap computers        .
    A．to show what high technology can bring us
    B．to show the kindness of people in the developed countries
    C．to show how to find business opportunities in developing countries
    D．to give an example of how to help developing countries
    小题3:
    Where does this passage probably come from?        .
    A．A newspaper.B．A magazine.
    C．A lecture.D．An advertisement.

    Lots of people have hobbies. Some people collect old coins or foreign stamps; some do needlework; others spend most of their spare time on a particular sport.
    A lot of people enjoy reading. But reading tastes differ widely. Some people only read newspapers or comics, some like reading novels, while others prefer books on astronomy, wildlife, or technological discoveries.
    If I happen to be interested in horses or precious stones, I cannot expect everyone else to share my enthusiasm. If I watch all the sports programs on TV with great pleasure, I must put up with the fact that other people find sports boring.
    Is there nothing that interests us all? Is there nothing that concerns everyone—no matter who they are or where they live in the world? Yes, dear Sophie, there are questions that certainly should interest everyone. They are precisely the questions this course is about.
    What is the most important thing in life? If we ask someone living on the edge of starvation, the answer is food. If we ask someone dying of cold, the answer is warmth. If we put the same question to someone who feels lonely and isolated, the answer will probably be the company of other people.
    But when these basic needs have been satisfied—will there still be something that everybody needs? Philosophers think so. They believe that man cannot live by bread alone. Of course everyone needs food. And everyone needs love and care. But there is something else—apart from that—which everyone needs, and that is to figure out who we are and why we are here.
    Being interested in why we are here is not a “casual” interest like collecting stamps. People who ask such questions are taking part in a debate that has gone on as long as man has lived on this planet. How the universe, the earth, and life came into being is a bigger and more important question than who won the most gold medals in the last Olympics.
    小题1: This text is most probably taken from __________. 
    A．a research paperB．a course schedule
    C．a personal letterD．a book review
    小题2: Which of the following best states the main idea of the passage?
    A．Philosophical questions are as interesting as collecting stamps.
    B．Thinking about philosophical questions is a serious interest.
    C．Figuring out who we are and why we are here is man’s basic needs.
    D．Philosophy has universal appeal and concerns everybody in nature.
    小题3: The author believes that __________.
    A．no existing subject can interest everyone in the world
    B．different people may have different interests and concerns
    C．everyone has to figure out who we are and why we are here
    D．people in modern society pay more attention to philosophical questions

    Destiny and Personal Responsibility
    One important variable affecting communication across cultures is destiny（命运）and personal responsibility. This refers to the degree to which we feel ourselves the masters of our lives, contrary to the degree to which we see ourselves as subject to things outside our control. Another way to look at this is to ask how much we see ourselves able to change and act, to choose the course of our lives and relationships. Some have drawn a parallel between the personal responsibility in North American settings and the view itself. The North American view is vast, with large spaces of unpopulated land. The frontier attitude of “King” of the wilderness, and the expansiveness of the land reaching huge distances, may relate to generally high levels of confidence in the ability to shape and choose our destinies.
    In this expansive land, many children grow up with a heroic sense of life, where ideas are big, and hope springs forever. When they experience temporary failures, they encouraged to redouble their efforts, to “try, try again.” Action, efficiency（效率）, and achievement are valued and expected. Free will is respected in laws and enforced by courts.
    Now consider places in the world with much smaller land, whose history reflects wars and tough struggles: Northern Ireland, Mexico, Israel, Palestine. In these places, destiny’s role is more important in human life. In Mexico, there is a history of hard life, fighting over land, and loss of homes. Mexicans are more likely to see struggles as part of their life and unavoidable. Their passive attitude is expr4essed in their way of responding to failure or accident by saying “ni modo”(“no way” or “tough lick”), meaning that the failure was destined.
    This variable is important to understanding cultural conflict. If someone believing in free will crosses paths with someone more passive, miscommunication is likely. The first person may expect action and accountability. Failing to see it, he may conclude that the second is lazy, not cooperative, or dishonest. The second person will expect respect for the natural order of thins. Failing to see it, he may conclude that the first is forcible, rude, or big headed in his ideas of what can be accomplished or changed.
    小题1:The author thinks that one’s character is partly determined by        .
    A．physical sensesB．general attitude
    C．financial backgroundD．geographic characteristics
    小题2:According to the passage, Mexicans would think that Americans are        .
    A．impracticalB．dishonestC．ambitiousD．hesitant
    小题3:The underlined word “subject” in Paragraph 1 probably means      .
    A．a topic of a discussionB．a branch of knowledge
    C．a person being experimented onD．a person under the power of others
    小题4:The author would probably agree that        .
