At six o"clock his favourite programme "Travel with it!" was on TV. Andy liked to get home in good time
for that, so he was leaving the office a little 2 .
"I can get home in time if I hurry." Andy told himself when he 3 out of the office. But when he drove
off in his car, he 4 that he was almost out of gas (汽油). "I"ll have to stop at Fenton"s." Andy thought. He
5 Fenton"s because it was a self-service gas station. You do all the work yourself, but you pay 6 for
the gas. Fenton"s pump (泵) was not working properly and it 7 too much time to get gas.
So when Andy got home, it was already two minutes past six. Just then the phone rang. "Shall I answer
it?" Andy thought. He tried to fix his attention on the programme and forgot the phone. But it kept on ringing and
finally he picked it up.
"Mr. Barton?" 8 said, "Fenton"s Garage here."
"Fenton"s?" said Andy, " 9 , I was at your place only a few minutes ago, getting some gas. Did I
10 something behind or what?"
"No, you didn"t. Mr. Barton." the voice went on. "That"s just the point! You didn"t leave anything behind!
You went off without paying for your gas, you see! When that happened, we usually ring up the police. But
11 I recognized you and I know it was a mistake."
"I"m really very sorry." Andy said. "
Oh, 12 , Mr. Barton. But could you come round now and pay for your gas? And please hurry! We
close at half past six!"

very sick and they had no money. Only an operation (手术) could save him now and there was no one to
lend them the money.
One day she heard her Daddy say to her tearful mother, "Only a miracle (奇迹) can save him now."
The little girl went to her bedroom and pulled her piggy bank (存钱罐) from its hiding place. She poured
all the coins out on the floor and counted them carefully.
Holding her piggy bank, she ran to the nearby drugs store. she placed her coins on the glass counter.
"I want to buy a miracle for my little brother. He is really sick." said the little girl to the shop assistant.
"I beg your pardon?" the shop assistant could hardly believe what he heard.
"His name is Andrew and he has something bad growing inside his head and my Daddy says only a
miracle can save him."
"We don"t sell miracle here, child. I"m sorry," the shop assistant said.
"Listen, I have the money to pay for it. If it isn"t enough, I can try and get some more. Just tell me how
much it costs."
In the shop was a well-dressed customer (顾客). His name was Carlton Armstrong. He asked the little
girl, "What kind of miracle does your brother need?"
"I don"t know," she replied. "He is really sick and Mommy says he needs an operation. But my Daddy
can"t pay for it."
"How much do you have?" asked the man. "One dollar and eleven cents," she answered. "Well," smiled
the man. "A dollar and eleven cents? That is the exact price of a miracle for your little brother. I have the kind
of miracle you need."
He took her money in one hand and held her hand with the other. He said, "Take me to where you live.
I want to see your brother and meet your parents."
Carlton Armstrong saved Andrew"s life by giving him a successful operation.
"That operation," her mother said in a low voice, "was a real miracle. I wonder how much it would have
cost." The little girl smiled. She knew exactly how much the miracle cost-one dollar and eleven cents.

when this method of communication first came into business life, his company in New York and its satellites
across the earth were among the first to get it.
One evening in New York, the American friend was late for a drink we"d arranged (安排). "Sorry," he
said, "I"ve been away and had to deal with 998 emails." "Wow," I said, "I"m really surprised you made it before
midnight." "It doesn"t really take that long," he explained, "if you simply delete (删除) them all."
The friend had developed his own way on dealing with emails before most of us heard of emails. If any
information he got was very important, his no reply would make the sender ring him up. If the sender wasn"t
important enough to have his phone number, the communication couldn"t be important enough.
Almost every week now, we have to spend lots of time in dealing with emails. But if this happens, it"s only
because we haven"t developed the same thing in dealing with emails as we do with post. Have you ever regarded
an important letter as a piece of advertisement and thrown it out? Of course you haven"t. Junk (垃圾) email
looks unnecessary to read. But I cannot understand why so many people would like to open emails which come
from this kind of address such as SPECIALOFFER@junk.com.
Dealing with emails is an art. Firstly, you delete anything from any address you don"t know. Secondly, not
all the emails have to be answered. Thirdly, a reply email doesn"t have to be the same length as the original (原始
的).
B. Because he had to deal with quite a lot of emails.
C. Because he had to finish his work before midnight.
D. Because he had to delete quite a lot of emails.
to sleep at night. I wasn"t working that summer and was taking only two classes in summer school, so I

volunteers. We 2 for 45 people hot meals 3 vegetables, chicken, fish and fruit. The homeless

I 4 this volunteer work, making 5 with four volunteers in the kitchen. One was a very nice
elderly housewife, one a movie actor, another a young teacher and the other a college student, like me.
I talked with a lot of the homeless people at the shelter. Their life stories filled me with sympathy
(同情). Some of them had 6 with alcohol (烈酒) or drugs (毒品) while others only had 7 luck.
One woman worked for almost 30 years for a small company, and then she lost (失去) her job, she looked
for a 8 job, but couldn"t find one, for she was too 9 . She could do nothing but sell her furniture-sofas,
chairs, and tables 10 she could pay for her food. The woman 11 on looking for a job, but she still
couldn"t find one. She had no money for her flat and had to sleep in her car. Then she had to sell her car.

didn"t feel 1 at all. His college friends were looking for their first jobs, but he didn"t have to. John decided
to 2 living a simple life like everyone else. He didn"t tell any of his friends and gave his $100,000 of his
money to a 3 that helped poor children to live better lives. Today he is 36, he 4 wears cheap shoes and
owns a small car only, but he is much happier.
Once, John went to meet a little girl in Africa. He said the meeting was very 5 . "When I met her, I
felt very, very happy, "he said. "I saw that the money 6 for a very good plan. It brought me 7 to the
child in a way that giving money 8 cannot. ""I want to do everything I can," he added.

was well-known to hold the most troublesome (顽皮的) students in the city. With this in 3 , I was more
nervous than I should be. But I tried my best not to 4 it out and went into the class. The first thing I did
was taking a look at the whole class. My eyes 5 on a big black student. He was sitting in the back 6
of the class with no one in front of him. His body was much 7 than mine. I thought it would be better to
leave that boy untouchable. As soon as I started my lesson writing on the blackboard, I heard some noise from
the back. I 8 the students to find out who did it, but the class looked very 9 . I went on writing and
the noise went on. Then I stopped my lesson to solve this problem because I believed that if I lost control
(控制) of the class from the 10 I wouldn"t be able to get it back. I thought the big boy made the noise.
To my 11 , a small boy was the source (根源) of trouble. Days went 12 and I discovered that the big
boy was good and quiet and the great source of trouble came from a group of small-sized students who became
under control after some weeks. From then on, I realized that judging (判断) by appearance can often be wrong,
not only with students!
