解析
小题1: C
解析 根据第一句“I used to be ashamed of my grandma.”以及后文可知，作者过去对奶奶错误的看法或态度是一件羞于启齿的事情。funny滑稽可笑的；common常见的；clear清晰的。
小题2: A
解析 虽然这种事情说出来不好，但却是一个事实，作者不得不承认。
小题3: C
解析 后文所列举的例子，是作者认为由奶奶引起的麻烦事。另外后文没有出现作者与Katy争吵，故排除A项；accident事故；adventure冒险。
小题4: D
解析 根据句意可知此处应为否定的语气。
小题5: B
解析 根据动词的用法可排除A、C两项；再根据后文作者担心奶奶会听见受到伤害可以推断出Katy只是假装要宣扬这件事。
小题6: D
解析 此处作者应为恳求的语气。
小题7: B
解析 根据上下文及词意可知B项最合题意。
小题8: C
解析 联系上下文可知，作者意识到有许多关于奶奶的令人窘迫的事情。expect盼望，期望；declare宣告，宣称；doubt怀疑。
小题9: D
解析 根据常识可知，买汉堡包应该买已经做好的，而奶奶却让他们做一个“巨无霸”汉堡包。
小题10: A
解析 根据前文but可知，作者的态度应与弟弟的态度相反，再结合作者对奶奶的态度可排除B项。disappear消失； suffer受苦，遭受，不符语意。此处用die表示作者十分生气失望的心情。
小题11: D
解析 作者希望把奶奶藏起来，不让奶奶出来引起麻烦。
小题12: C
解析 inconvenient不便利的，不方便的，主语不能为人，故排除；结合语意可知父母不希望让奶奶感到在家里不受欢迎。

小题15: B
解析 根据下一段中空后面的rich in experience可知此处为生活经历，故选lives。
小题16: C
解析 根据上一段第二句“My teacher told us to help find interesting old people...”可知此处应选C项。
小题17: B
解析 作者在全体师生面前采访奶奶，让她讲述自己的经历，所以应在舞台上。on stage在舞台上，符合语境。on show在展览；on duty在上班；on time按时。
小题18: D
解析 as if好像。
小题19: B
解析 联系上文可知，作者对奶奶的看法已经转变。be proud of对……感到自豪；be sure of确信；be ashamed of以……为耻；be afraid of害怕。

Soon a slight，sandyhaired boy in jeans and a Tshirt appeared.“Do you have a job for me？” he asked.
I told him about the Dewey Decimal System(杜威十进分类法) for shelving books.He picked up the idea immediately.Then I showed him a stack(摞) of cards for longoverdue books that I was beginning to think had actually been returned but were misshelved with the wrong cards in them.He said，“Is it kind of a detective job？” I answered yes，and he became working.
He had found three books with wrong cards by the time his teacher opened the door and announced，“Time for break！”He argued for finishing the finding job；she made the case for fresh air.She won.
The next morning，he arrived early.“I want to finish these books，”he said.At the end of the day，when he asked to be a librarian on a regular basis，it was easy to say yes.He worked untiringly.
After a few weeks I found a note on my desk，inviting me to dinner at the boy’s home.At the end of a pleasant evening，his mother announced that the family would be moving to a neighbouring school district.Her son’s first concern，she said，was leaving the View Ridge library.“Who will find the lost books？” he asked.
When the time came，I said an unwilling goodbye.I missed him，but not for long.A few days later he came back and joyfully announced，“The librarian over there doesn’t let boys work in the library.My mother got me transferred back to View Ridge.My dad will drop me off on his way to work.And if he can’t，I’ll walk！”
I should have had an idea such focused determination would take that young man wherever he wanted to go.What I could not have guessed，however，was that he would become a genius of the Information Age：Bill Gates，tycoon(企业巨头) of Microsoft and America’s richest man.

The truck fell into a 20foot ravine(峡谷)．When it hit bottom，Rocky woke up.“What happened，Mama？” he asked.“Our wheels are pointing toward the sky.”
Kelly was seriously wounded and blinded by blood.“I’ll get you out，Mama，”announced Rocky，who had surprisingly escaped injury.He climbed out from under Kelly，slid through the open window and tried to yank his mother out.But she didn’t move.
“Just let me sleep，” begged Kelly，who was out of consciousness.Rocky insisted，“Mom，you can’t go to sleep.”
Rocky managed to push Kelly out of the truck and told her he’d climb up to the road and stop a car to get help.Fearing that no one would be able to see her little boy in the dark，Kelly refused to let him go alone.Instead they slowly moved up to the road.The pain was so great that Kelly wanted to give up，but Rocky wouldn’t let her.
Rocky kept repeating the inspirational phrase，“I know you can，I know you can.”When they finally reached the road，Rocky broke into tears seeing his mother’s torn face clearly for the first time.Waving his arms and shouting, “Please stop！” the boy stopped a truck.His mother was sent to hospital.
It took 8 hours to rebuild Kelly’s face.She looks quite different today—“I used to have a straight long nose，thin lips and high cheekbones；now I’ve got a flat cheeks and much bigger lips”—but she has few scars and has recovered from her injuries.
Rocky’s heroics were big news.Everyone was surprised at this little boy’s power.“It’s not like I wanted it to happen，” the boy explained.“I just did what anyone would have done.” “If it weren’t for Rocky，I’d have died，” said his mother.

Born in 1907 in a village near Mexico City，Kahlo suffered from polio(小儿麻痹症) at the age of seven.Her spine(脊柱) became bent as she grew older.Then，in 1925，her back was broken in several places in a schoolbus accident.Throughout the rest of her life，the artist had many operations，but nothing was able to cure the terrible pain in her back.However，the accident had an unexpected side effect.While lying in her bed recovering，Kahlo taught herself to paint.
In 1929，she got married to Diego Rivera，another famous Mexican artist.Rivera’s strong influence on Kahlo’s style can be seen in her early works，but her later works from the 1940s，known today as her best works，show less influence from her husband.
Unfortunately，her works did not attract much attention in the 1930s and 1940s，even in her home country.Her first onewoman show in Mexico was not held until 1953.For more than a decade after her death in 1954，Kahlo’s works remained largely unnoticed by the world，but in the 1970s her works began to gain international fame at last.

The day did not start out good for us when we learned that T-Mac was going to miss the game with the flu. When you lose your best players (Yao, T-Mac) everyone must play a little harder and do a little bit more on the floor. We inserted Bonzi Wells into the lineup (he was the only one to have a good game for us), in place of T-Mac.
It was a nasty game. We are usually one of the best three point shooting teams in the NBA and we only made 1 of 22 three point shots! I have never seen that happen. Never! Rafer Alston, Luther Head, and me combined to shoot 5 of 33 from the field. Ouch! You aren"t going to win too many games like that. Even as poorly as we shot the ball, we STILL had a chance to win the game in the fourth quarter but failed to make the winning plays that you must make to leave the floor victorious.
In the locker room after the game, everybody felt terrible. When we play a bad game, we feel that we let our teammates down. There is a bad feeling in the pit of your stomach when you leave the gym and you just want to go home and not talk to anyone. It is a terrible feeling, but it is a feeling that makes you want to try harder and do better the next time.
I"ll talk to you guys later.
