Two good friends, Sam and Jason, met with a car accident on their way home one night. The next morning, Sam woke up blind. His legs were broken. The doctor, Mr Lee was standing by his bed, looking at him with a thoughtful expression. When he saw Sam awake, he asked, “How are you feeling, Sam?” Sam smiled and said, “Not bad, Doctor. Thank you for doing the operation.” Mr Lee was moved by Sam. When he was leaving, Sam said, “Please don’t tell Jason about it.” “... OK.” Mr Lee replied.
Months later when Jason’s wounds (伤) healed, Sam was still very weak. Neither could he see or walk. What he could do was just stay in his wheelchair all day long. At first, Jason stayed with him for a few days. But days later, Jason felt very discouraged and embarrassed to spend time staying with a disabled man like Sam. So he went to see Sam less and less. He made new friends. From then on, he didn’t go to visit Sam any more. Sam didn’t have any family or friends other than Jason. He felt very sad.
Things went from bad to worse. Sam died a year later. When Jason came, Mr Lee gave a letter to him. It was from Sam. In the letter Sam said, “Dear Jason, I am disabled. But I want you to be a healthy man. So I gave my eyes to you so that you can enjoy life as a healthy man. Now you have new friends. I’m glad to see that you are as healthy and happy as usual. I’m glad you live a happy life. You are always my best friend ... ... Sam”. When he finished reading the letter , Mr Lee said, “I have promised that I will keep this a secret until Sam is gone.

The other half was hidden under her blouse, so she   40  still had some left. A few minutes later, she stopped crying, but still looked   41  .
When all the seats were taken, the driver started the engine. The conductor began to collect fares.

The woman was watching the incident.  46 the driver and the conductor raised their voices at the old man, she interfered (干预).
“Stop   47  him! Can’t you see he’s only trying to get home?”
“He doesn’t have any money!” the driver   48  .
“Well, that’s no   49  to throw him off the bus,” she insisted.
Then she reached inside her blouse, took out her   50  money, and handed it to the conductor. “Here’s his fare and mine. Just stop giving him a   51  time.”
All heads turned to the woman. “It’s only money,” she shrugged(耸肩). She rode the rest of the way home   52  a happy smile, with the money she’d lost earlier   53  .
On the road of life, the help of strangers can   54  our loads and lift our spirits. How much sweeter the   55  will be when we make it a little smoother for others!

Success is often measured by the ability to overcome adversity(逆境). But it is often the belief of others that gives us the courage(勇气)to try.
J. K. Rowling, author of the Harry Potter book series, began writing at age 6. Her good friend-Sean became the first person to encourage her and help her build the confidence that one day she would be a very good writer.
“He was the first person with whom I really discussed my serious ambition(志向) to be a writer. He was also the only person who thought I was bound to(注定)be a success at it, which meant much more to me than I ever told him at the time.”
Though there were many difficulties, Rowling continued her writing, particularly fantasy stories. But it wasn"t until l990 that she first came up with the idea about Harry Potter. As she recalls(回忆), it was on a long train journey from London to Manchester that “the idea of Harry Potter simply fell into my head. To my great disappointment, I didn"t have a pen with me, and I was too shy to ask anybody if I could borrow one. I think, now, that this was probably a good thing, because I simply sat and thought, for four (delayed train) hours, and all the details came up in my brain, and this thin, black-haired, bespectacled(戴眼镜的)boy who didn"t know he was a wizard became more and more real to me.”
That same year, her mother died after a ten-year fight with serious diseases, which deeply affected her writing. She went on to marry and had a daughter, but separated from her husband shortly afterwards.
During this time, Rowling was diagnosed with depression(诊断患有抑郁症). Unemployed, she finished her first novel in area cafes, where she could get her daughter to fall asleep. After being refused by l2 publishing houses, the first Harry Potter novel was sold to a small British publishing house.
Now with seven books that have sold nearly 400 million copies in 64 languages, J. K. Rowling is the highest earning novelist in history. And it all began with her friend’s encouragement as well as her ambition to write.
小题1: Who believed J. K. Rowling was to be a good writer?

C.after her mother"s death
D.in her secondary school
小题3: She felt disappointed on the train because_________.
A.her train was delayed for four hours
B.she didn"t have a pen with her
C.her mind suddenly went blank
D.no one would offer her help
小题4: It can be concluded from Paragraph 5 and 6 that Rowling is_________.
A.open-minded B.warm-hearted
C.good-natured D.strong-willed
小题5: The text mainly tells us_________.
A.adversity makes a good novelist

Even before my father left us, my mother had to go back to work to support our family. Once I came out of the kitchen, complaining, “Mom, I can’t peel(剥……的皮) potatoes. I have only one hand.”
Mom never looked up from sewing. “You get yourself into that kitchen and peel those potatoes,” she told me. “And don’t ever use that as an excuse for anything again!”
In the second grade, our teacher lined up my class on the playground and had each of us race across the monkey bars, swinging from one high steel rod to the next. When it was my turn, I shook my head. Some kids behind me laughed, and I went home crying.
That night I told Mom about it. She hugged me, and I saw her “we’ll see about that” look. The next afternoon, she took me back to school. At the deserted playground, Mom looked carefully at the bars.
“Now, pull up with your right arm,” she advised. She stood by as I struggled to lift myself with my right hand until I could hook the bar with my other elbow(肘). Day after day we practiced, and she praised me for every rung I reached. I’ll never forget the next time, crossing the rungs, I looked down at the kids who were standing with their mouths open.
One night, after a dance at my new junior high, I lay in bed sobbing. I could hear Mom come into my room. “Mom,” I said, weeping, “none of the boys would dance with me.”
For a long time, I didn’t hear anything. Then she said, “Oh, honey, someday you’ll be beating those boys off with a bat.” Her voice was faint. I peeked(窥视) out from my covers to see tears running down her cheeks. Then I knew how much she suffered on my behalf(利益). She had never let me see her tears.
小题1: Which of the following expressions can be used most suitably to describe Mom’s attitude when she made the child to peel potatoes?
A.Cruel. B.Serious.
C.Cold. D.Strict
小题2: What does the sentence “I saw her ‘we’ll see about that’ look” imply(暗示)?
A.Mom believed every aim could be achieved if you stuck to it.
B.The race across monkey bars was not difficult enough for a child to give up.
C.Mom was determined to prove she herself was better than the teacher.
D.What the child had said brought Mom great attraction and curiosity.
小题3: When the child looked down at the kids, they were standing with their mouths open because _________.
A.they felt sorry for what they had done before
B.they were afraid the author might fall off and get hurt
C.they were astonished to find the author’s progress
D.they wanted to see what the author would do on the bars
小题4:The most probable conclusion we can draw after reading the passage is ______.
A.the last incident was sad enough to make Mom weep
B.the child’s experience reminded Mom of that of her own
C.Mom could solve any problem except the one in the last paragraph
D.in fact Mom suffered more in the process of the child’s growth

I had a friend who visited me from out of town and I wanted to show him the CN Tower. It was one of the tallest structures on the earth. So I thought it would offer a(n)   36  sight.
We were standing in line for 45minutes to enjoy the    37   up to the watch point. When we got there, we went around the   38     of the tower and saw the hard wire fence  39     to the structure serving as a barrier. We went back inside to look for the glass floor that provided a direct view   40     . As soon as both of us  41     , we stopped before walking onto it. We found that our legs began to   42  . I stopped for a minute considering the step, taking several seconds to   43     the edge before moving.
And then I had a thought in my mind:“It is far   44     compared to any other floor in this building. There is no real danger to me — it’s    45   an illusion. Look at all the people standing on it, and think about those who have stood on it before.”I began to  46     that step onto the glass floor. I didn’t look down —  47    not for a few minutes.
I walked on the    48   and looked around and thought about how  49   the experience was. I even found myself jumping up and down. There was no  50   , and it was certainly an illusion.
I considered how many things in our lives we  51    and exactly how many of them are actually illusions. I thought about all the things we   52    ourselves from doing because we have  53   ourselves into thinking there’s risk. I thought about all the things that I still have yet to do that appeared  54   . I was glad to discover that although fear isn’t a stranger to me, my desire to live a life without    55   has a much stronger pull.

I came to study in the United States a year ago. Yet I did not know the American society until I was injured in a car accident. After the accident, I had to see a doctor and go to court. When the accident happened, my roommate called a doctor for me. I was very grateful and decided to repay him one day. But the next day, he asked me to pay him $200 for what he had done. I was astonished. He said he had good reason to charge me and that if I wanted to collect money from the person who was responsible for my injury, I’d have to have a good lawyer. Now that he had helped me to find a good doctor, it was only fair that I should pay him.
But every time I went to see the doctor, I had to wait about 50 minutes. He would see two or three patients at the same time, and often stop treating one so as to see another. Yet he charged me $115 each time. The final examination report only contained ten lines, and it cost me $215.
My lawyer was all smiles the first time we met. But after that he avoided seeing me at all. He knew very well the other party was responsible for the accident, yet he hardly did anything. He simply waited to collect his money. He was so irresponsible that I decided to fire him. And he made me pay him $770.
Now I had to act as my own lawyer. Because of my inexperience, I told the insurance the date I was leaving America. Knowing that, they played for time … and I left without getting a cent.
My experiences taught me two things about America: firstly, in a country like America, money is everything. It is more important than friendship, honor or professional morality; secondly, foreigners are still being unfairly treated. So when we talk about America, we should see both its advantages and disadvantages.
小题1: The author’s roommate offered to help him because ________.
A.he felt sorry for the author.
B.he thought it was a chance to make some money
C.he knew the doctor was a very good one
D.he wanted the author to have a good lawyer
小题2: A good lawyer is important for the author to _______.
A.be properly treated
B.talk with the person responsible for the accident
C.recover before he leaves America
D.eventually get the responsible party to pay for his injury
小题3: Which of the following statements is wrong according to the passage?
A.The author has learned a lot through the experience.
B.Everything about America is advantageous.
C.The author’s roommate helped him but charged for that.
D.The author’s final examination report only contained ten lines but cost $215.
小题4: What conclusion can you draw from this story?
A.Going to court is something very common in America.
B.One must be very careful while driving a car.
C.There are more disadvantages in America than advantages.
D.Money is more important than other things in the US.
