题型:不详难度:来源:
About one year ago, a couple with three children moved into the apartment next door to me. I never heard any noise form the children, but I often heard the parents     shouting at the kids, not in a nice tone, but in a (n)     one.
We often     in the hallway. I always greeted them,     the only answer I ever got was a “hello” from the eight-year-old girl. I usually     to see my doctor and one day when I returned they were just     their apartment and the little girl was     the outside door open for the others. I     in the car doing     things because I wasn’t eager to be snubbed (冷落) again. Finally I got out of my car and walked towards the door. The parents were telling her to     to get into the car, but the little girl was still holding the door,     me! I hurried although I was still in pain from my injury.
I forgot to tell her how     I was for her kindness. I wrote a note saying how much her act of kindness had     an old man’s heart.
The next day there was a (n)     on my door and it was the little girl and her father. She was quite     of her behavior and thanked me. Then I noticed her mother was there, too. Her parents     me, too.
Now when we meet in the hall way we always greet each other, in a friendly     .
Last night there was a heavy snow. I looked out at my car and     how I was going to keep my doctor’s     because I could only walk for a short time. This morning when I opened the front door, all the snow was removed.
Isn’t it     that the small kind act of an 8-year-old girl can change so many things for the better? It is said that good tings come from small acts.

试题【About one year ago, a couple with three children moved into the apartment next d】;主要考察你对题材分类等知识点的理解。[详细]
举一反三
I opened my new patient"s chart and headed for her room. My son, Eric, had just brought home a disappointing report card, and my daughter, Shannon, and I had argued again about her getting a driver"s license. For the next eight hours I wanted to throw myself into helping people who I knew had much more to worry about than I did. Rebekah, mother of three lovely little girls, was only 32, admitted for chemotherapy after breast-cancer surgery, When I gave her an injection, Rebekah shut her eyes tightly and murmured a prayer until it was over. Then she smiled and squeezed my hand. “Before you go, could you get my Bible from the table?" I handed her the worn book. "Do you have a favorite Bible verse?" she asked. "Jesus wept. John 11: 35." "Such a sad one," she said. "Why?""It makes me feel closer to Jesus, knowing he also experienced human sorrow." Rebekah nodded thoughtfully and started flipping through her Bible as I shut the door quietly behind me.
During the following months, her hospital stays became frequent and she worried about her children. One day when I entered her room, I found her talking into a tape recorder. She picked up a notebook and held it out to me. "I"m making a tape for my daughters, " she said. I read the list on her pad: starting school, confirmation, turning 16, first date, graduation. While I worried how to help her deal with death, she was planning for her children"s future. She usually waited until the early hours of the morning to record the tapes so she could be free from interruptions. She filled them with family stories and advice,trying to cram a lifetime of love into a few precious hours. Finally, every item in her notes had been checked off and she entrusted the tapes to her husband.
I often wondered what I would say in her place. My kids joked that I was like an FBI agent, with my constant questions about where they’d been and who they’d been with. Where, I thought, are my words of encouragement and love?
It was three o"clock one afternoon when I got an urgent call from the hospital. Rebekah wanted me to come immediately with a blank tape. She was breathing hard when I entered her room. I slipped the tape into the recorder and held the microphone to her lips. "Ruthie, Hannah, Molly, this is the most important tape." She held my hand and closed her eyes. "Someday your daddy will bring home a new mommy. Please make her feel special. Show her how to take care of you. Ruthie, honey, help her get your Brownie uniform ready each Tuesday. Hannah, tell her you don"t want meat sauce on your spaghetti. Molly, don"t get mad if there"s no apple juice. Drink something else. It"s okay to be sad, sweeties. Jesus cried too. He knows about sadness and will help you to be happy again. Remember, I"ll always love you. I shut off the recorder and Rebekah sighed deeply. "Thank you, Nan, "You"ll give this one to them, won"t you?" she murmured as she slid into sleep.
A time would come when the tape would be played for Rebekah"s children, but right then, after I smoothed Rebekah"s blanket, I got in my car and hurried home. I thought of how my Shannon also liked her sauce on the side and suddenly that quirk, which had annoyed me so many times, seemed to make her so much more precious. That night the kids didn"t go out; they sat with me long after the spaghetti sauce had dried onto the dishes. And we talked, without interrogations, without complaints,late into the night.

The largest campaign of killing rats in history is set to poison millions of rats on the sub-Antarctic island of South Georgia. Scientists say the campaign planned for 2013 and 2014 will restore beautiful South Georgia to the position it once held as the world’s most important nesting sites for seabirds.
It was sailors in the late 18th century who unintentionally introduced rats to what had been a fresh environment. “If we can destroy the rats, at least 100 million birds will return to their home on South Georgia,” says Tony Martin, a biology professor at the University of Dundee who was invited to lead the project.
South Georgia is by far the largest island to get rid of animals that destroy native wildlife after being introduced deliberately or accidentally by people. Though rats and mice have done the most damage, cats, foxes, goats, deer, rabbits and other species have been targeted in the campaigns around the world.
South Georgia is seven times the size of New Zealand’s Campbell Island, currently the largest area ever killing rats. The successful war against Campbell Island rats was carried our in 2001 with 132 tons of poison dropped from five helicopters.
“New Zealand pioneered the techniques for ridding islands of rats and in fact our operation on South Georgia is based on New Zealand’s technology.” Says Martin. “Some New Zealanders will be helping our campaign, including our chief pilot, Peter Garden, who was also chief pilot for the projects at Campbell Island and Rat Island, in the Aleutian chain of the north Pacific.”
The second and third stages in 2013 and 2014 will involve dropping as much as 300 tons of poison from the air onto every part of the island where rats might live. It is a huge operation, carried out during the stormy southern autumn when the rats are hungry and the risks of poisoning native wildlife are less than in the spring and summer months. “Ideally we’d do in winter but the weather makes that too risky,” Martin says.
The ecological payback will be priceless. But Martin says, “The full benefits will take decades to arrive, because some of these birds are slow to hatch.”
小题1:According to the passage, how did the rats appear on the sub-Antarctic island of South Georgia ?
A.They were attracted there by wildlife.
B.They escaped there from Campbell Island.
C.They were introduced there by sailors accidently.
D.They were brought in by people deliberately.
小题2:Which of the following is True about Peter Garden ?
A.He is in charge of the campaign on the sub-Antarctic island.
B.He will be the only pilot for the project on the sub-Antarctic island.
C.He will benefit a lot from the campaign on the sub-Antarctic island.
D.He made great contributions to the project at Campbell Island and Rat Island.
小题3:The operation of ridding South Georgia of rats is to carried out in autumn because _________.
A.the war against Campbell Island rats failed in all seasons except autumn.
B.only then do the New Zealanders to help the operation have the spare time.
C.rats then need more food and the operation does less harm to native wildlife.
D.the poison kills rats more effectively than it does in any other season.
小题4:What can we infer from the passage?.
A.The campaign of killing rats will benefit the native wildlife in a short time.
B.Rats aren’t the only species to be blamed for the disappearance of wildlife.
C.The first stage of killing rats on the sub-Antarctic island didn’t make great achievements.
D.The campaign in South Georgia will fully follow in the footsteps of that on Campbell Island.

One Sunday, a picture in the newspaper touched me. A young woman stood in front of a totally destroyed home. A little boy stood beside her with his head    . Holding her skirt tightly was a tiny girl, eyes wide with        and fear.
With growing       I noticed that their sizes of each family member closely      ours. This would be a good opportunity to    my children, so I explained their difficult    to my seven-year-old twins and three-year-old Meghan.
“We have so much, but these poor people now have nothing,” I said, “we’ll      what we have with them.”
I brought three large boxes and placed them on the living room floor. Meghan watched seriously      the boys and I filled one box with canned food.
While I     our clothes, I encouraged the boys to go through their toys and     some of their less favorite things. Meghan watched      as the boys piled up useless toys in the box.
“I’ll help you find something for the little girl,” I said to her.
The boys placed the toys they had     to donate into one of the boxes while I filled the third box with clothes. Meghan walked up with Lucy, her worn, faded, much-loved doll    tightly to her chest. She      in front of the box, pressed her little face into Lucy’s face, gave her a      kiss, then, laid her gently on top of the other toys.
“Oh, honey,” I said. “You      to give away Lucy. You love her so much.”
Meghan nodded, eyes shining with tears. “Lucy makes me happy, Mommy.       she’ll make that little girl happy, too.”
I stared at Meghan for a long moment,        how I could teach the boys the lesson she had just taught me.
It’s easy to give what we don’t want any more, but       to let go of things we cherish, isn’ t it?       , the true spirit of giving is to give with your heart.

I still remember my first job in the city center.

The students were sixteen or seventeen years old,        several years younger than me.       , some of them looked and acted       older than me sometimes.
The room was directly       the street, and had the window looking out over the street and many houses. One day, I was       some words on the blackboard when I heard a sudden change in the noise behind me. There was a man standing in the room with       an apple in his hand. He looked      .
“Who threw this?” he asked, looking round the class.
“I beg your pardon? What is the matter?” I said. “     threw this apple out of the window,” he said. “It       on my car.”
“Who threw an apple out of the window?” I       to the class. There was no answer.
“I       the fellow who threw this.” said the man. “I will be       outside for you.” And then he left, closing the door behind him.
     was silence and I continued with the lesson. At the end of every lesson, usually the class were all       before the bell finished ringing, leaving me saying “That’s all for today” to an empty    .  This time, when the bell went for the end of the lesson, no one      .  “That’s all for today,” I said. “You go first, sir,” said one of the boys. It made a nice change, I being out first.
