题型:不详难度:来源:
When I was in the sixth grade, one day my teacher asked our class to think about the question “What does ‘doing the right thing’ mean to you?” over the weekend. We could talk to our parents or anyone else we thought might have a good answer.  1  Monday, we were to hand in an essay(论文) on it, and be prepared to live up to our  2 .        
The entire weekend, I was trying to  3  something that would impress my teacher and be easy to live by. I talked to my parents, called my grandmother and asked my neighbor. Everyone had good answers, but I didn’t feel like I could live up to them.
On Sunday afternoon, my parents said they were going to my Aunt Cindy’s house. That usually 4  that I would have to entertain my four-year-old cousin Andrea  5  my parents visited. I found a Disney movie for Andrea, and then I sat down and started to write my essay. It was due(到期的)the next morning and this was my last  6  .
Soon I felt a pair of eyes on me. It was Andrea.  “What are you doing?” Andrea asked. “I have to write an essay about what ‘doing the right thing’ means to me.” I answered. Andrea laughed. Could this smart four-year-old know the answer?  “That’s easy,” she said. “Doing the right thing means being nice to your family and friends. Never lie. Eat lots of fruits and vegetables. Take a bath when you’re 8 . And never put rocks in your mouth.”
I stared with great  9  at my little cousin. Then I jumped up and gave her the biggest hug. Not only had Andrea answered a very tough question for me, but I could easily live by  10  of her answers. All I had to do was to be nice, not to lie, to keep myself clean and healthy, and never put rocks in my mouth. So when I wrote my essay, I  11  the story about Andrea and how she had answered my question.
Two weeks later, my teacher returned everyone’s essays. I  12  an A+ along with a little note my teacher had written at the top: “Always do the right thing and give Andrea an A+, too!”

举一反三
If you have failed in the past to try to make big changes in life,try again now,one tiny step at a time.
Every year it’s the same.As December comes to an end,you think about the new year and all the ways you want to improve your life. But as you start to write down your hopes for the new year,you think about the last year.You excitedly write down all the changes you are going to make,but by the end of January those ideas get lost in your busy life.
Here’s a suggestion:Forget the too big,hard-to-achieve goals(目标) and just think about the small ones.“We often think that we have to do everything in big steps, even though it’s so hard for us to reach it.” said Robert Maurer,who recently wrote the book One Small Step Can Change Your Life.“What we try to do is to begin with such a small step that we can’t find any excuse not to do it.”
“Kaizen”,a Japanese word,is used to mean to change behavior and attitudes(态度).During World War Il,American factory managers were able to increase productivity by trying small, continuous improvements instead of sudden changes.After the war,the idea was brought to a rebuilding Japan.It made Japan develop fast. The Japanese called it “kaizen”, which means “improvement”.
Maurer studied the idea and did some experiments with it. “Kaizen” could possibly help people succeed in doing everything

A.we should do everything in big steps
B.how to change one’s life with one small step
C.we should try a lot of sudden changes
D.how to find a small step without any excuse

A.make changes at the end of the year
B.do few experiments with “kaizen”
C.do things with hard-to-achieve goals

D.“Kaizen” was brought to Japan during World WarⅡ.

Have you ever heard someone use the phrase” once in a blue moon”? People use this expression to describe something that they do not do very often. For example, someone might say that he tries to avoid eating sweets because they are unhealthy, but will eat chocolate” once in a blue moon”. Or someone who does not usually like to go to the beach might say “I visit the shore once in a blue moon.”While many people use this phrase, not everyone knows the meaning behind it.
The first thing to know is that the moon itself is never really blue. This is just an expression. In fact, the phrase” blue moon” has to do with the shape of the moon, not the color.
As the moon travels around the earth, it appears to change shape. We associate certain names with certain shapes of the moon. For example, when we can see a small part of the moon it is called a crescent moon. A crescent is a shape that looks like the tip of a fingernail when we cannot see the moon at all; it is called a new moon.
When we can see the whole moon is called a full moon. Usually, there is only one full moon every month. Sometimes, however there will be two full moons in one month. When this happens, the second full moon is called a blue moon”.
Over the next 20 years, there will only be 15 blue moons. As you can see, a blue moon is a very rare (稀有的)event. This fact has led people to use the expression” once in a blue moon” to describe other very rare events in their lives.
小题1:Which of the following would be a good example of using the phrase” once in a blue moon”.
A.Simon often tells jokes. Simon tells jokes once in a blue moon.
B.Tom rarely remembers to do exercise. Tom does exercise once in a blue moon.
C.Mary likes to go shopping every weekend. Mary goes shopping once in a blue moon.
D.Cindy hates to stay up, but she stays up every day. Cindy stays up once in a blue moon.
小题2:When does a blue moon happen in nature?
A.When the moon has a blue moon.
B.When we cannot see the moon at all.
C.When there are two full moons in one month.
D.When we can only see a small part of the color.
小题3:How often will a blue moon happen over the next twenty years?
A.Once a year.B.Less than once a year.
C.More than once a year.D.At least twice a year.
小题4:What does the underlined part “This fact” in the last paragraph refer to?
A.A blue moon is a very rare event.
B.The moon appears to change shape.
C.The moon itself is never really bluee.
D.A blue moon has to do with the shape of the moon.

Money, jewels and important documents may not be the only valuables placed in banks these days. Some mothers store their breast milk (母乳) in banks.
There are ten breast milk banks across the United States, where mothers can donate their extra milk for other women’s babies.
Experts say breast milk is the best food for babies. The World Health Organization says it is the only food babies should get during the first six months of life, in most cases. Breast milk is especially important for babies born too early. Sometimes these premature babies must stay in the hospital for many weeks.
James Cameron is a doctor who treats newborns at Lutheran Children’s Hospital in Fort Wayne, Indiana. He says breast milk is almost like medicine. Doctor James Cameron says, “The fact is that there are so many different proteins and specialized sugars in the breast milk that the mom’s able to make that help provide immunity (免疫力). It’s very important for the health of the newborn.”
Lucy Baur lives near Fort Wayne. She breastfed both her children and always had more milk than they needed. She wanted to donate to the Indiana Mothers Milk Bank in Indianapolis. But freezing and shipping milk can be costly. Then, a donor station opened near her home.
Milk donations in the United States work like this. Donors must be willing to provide almost three liters of breast milk. They freeze the milk and take it to the station. There, employees warm the milk and mix it with other mothers’ milk. Then, the milk is heated to kill bacteria. After that, the technicians test samples of all the milk to make sure it is safe and healthful. The milk is re-frozen and sent to the main milk bank. The milk bank transports the milk to hospitals to feed premature or sick babies.
Donors are tested for diseases before any milk is accepted. They are not permitted to smoke tobacco, use illegal drugs or drink too much alcohol.
小题1:According to the passage, which thing can also be stored in banks except money, jewels and important documents?
A.Notes.B.Diamonds.C.Valuable papers.D.Breast milk.
小题2:From the text we learn                            .

D.James Cameron is a doctor who feeds the babies on the milk in the milk station
