One very cold, wet night at about 3:30 a.m., there was a 36 on the front door of our house. A young man, wet from 37 to toe, explained that he had 38 out of petrol about 30 km up the road. He had left his pregnant wife and his two children 39 at the car and said that he would hitchhike(搭便车) back.
Once I had 40 a can with petrol, I took him back to his car where his two-year-old and four-year-old children were both 41 , saying that they were cold. Once the car had started, I suggested that he 42 me back.
Before leaving, I had turned the heater 43 in the roadhouse, so that when we went in, it was nice and 44 .While the little ones played and ran 45 ,I prepared bread and butter for the children, and hot chocolate for the 46 .
It was about 5 a.m. before they 47 .The young fellow asked me how much he 48 me and I told him that the petrol pump had 49 $15.He offered to pay “call-out fee”, but I wouldn’t accept it.
About a month later, I received a 50 from Interstate, a large bus company that we had been trying to 51 to stop off at our roadhouse for a long time. It 52 out that the young fellow I had helped was its general manager, the most 53 person in the company.
In his letter, he thanked me again and 54 me that, from then on, all their buses would stop at my service station. In this 55 ,a little bit of kindness was rewarded with a huge amount of benefits.

试题【Many years ago, I owned a service station and roadhouse on the main road between】；主要考察你对题材分类等知识点的理解。[详细]
举一反三
“What I mean is,” explained the recorder, “do you have a job, or are you just a …”
“Of course I have a job,” said Emily. “I’m a mother.”
“We don’t list ‘mother’ as an occupation…‘housewife’ covers it,” said the recorder.
One day I found myself in the same situation. The clerk was obviously a career woman, confident and possessed of a high sounding title. “What is your occupation?” she asked.
The words simply popped out. “I’m a Research Associate in the field of Child Development and Human Relations.”
The clerk paused, ballpoint pen frozen in midair.
I repeated the title slowly, then I stared with wonder as my statement was written in bold, black ink on the official questionnaire.
“Might I ask,” said the clerk with new interest, “Just what you do in this field?”
Coolly, without any trace of panic in my voice, I heard myself reply, “I have a continuing program of research (what mother doesn’t), in the lab and in the field (normally I would have said indoors and out). Of course, the job is one of the most demanding in the humanities (any mother care to disagree?), and I often work 14 hours a day (24 is more like it). But the job is more challenging than most careers and rewards are more of a satisfaction rather than just money.”There was an increasing note of respect in the clerk’s voice as she completed the form, stood up, and showed me out.
As I drove into our driveway, buoyed up (鼓舞) by my glamorous new career, I was greeted by my lab assistants---ages 13, 7, and 3.
Upstairs I could hear our new experimental model (a 6 month old baby), in the child-development program, testing out a new vocal（嗓音的） pattern.
I felt proud! I had gone on the official records as someone more distinguished and indispensable (不可缺少的) to mankind than “just another mother.”
Motherhood…What a glorious career! Especially when there’s a title on the door.
小题1:What can we infer from the conversation between the woman and the recorder at the beginning of the passage?
| A．Motherhood was not recognized and respected as a job by society. |
| B．The recorder was impatient and rude. |
| C．The author was upset about the situation that mothers faced. |
| D．The woman felt ashamed to admit what her job was. |
| A．curious | B．indifferent | C．interested | D．puzzled |
| A．Because the author cared little about rewards. |
| B．Because she admired the author’s research work in the lab. |
| C．Because the writer did something she had little knowledge of. |
| D．Because she thought the author did admirable work. |
| A．To show how you describe your job affects your feelings toward it. |
| B．To show that the author had a grander job than Emily. |
| C．To argue that motherhood is a worthy career and deserves respect. |
| D．To show that being a mother is hard and boring work. |
During his second year at the University of Mary Washington, he volunteered in Honduras with a campus group and was struck by the extreme poverty he saw—barefoot children collecting cans and sleeping in the streets. Fujiyama realized he could help give other children their own second chance.
Today, his organization, Students Helping Honduras, brings education and community projects to children and families in need.
He started by telling his friends about his experience and collecting spare change at his two campus jobs. “When I had my very first meeting, only two people showed up,” he says. “I knew I had to keep fighting.” He persuaded his younger sister, Cosmo, to join the cause. “She’s dynamite,.” He says. “When she talks in front of a crowd, she can move mountains. Knowing that she was behind it, I knew I could do anything.” Since 2006, the siblings’ organization has grown to 25 campuses and raised more than $750,000 to fund projects, including the construction of two schools and the establishment of scholarships to help young women attend college.
Fujiyama says students are deeply committed to the organization. They raise money and then travel to Honduras to help building houses. While Fujiyama spends his summers in Honduras working alongside volunteers, he spends a large portion of the year on the road visiting colleges to raise funds. Cosmo Fujiyama, 23, lives in Honduras full time to coordinate（协调）the group’s building efforts on the ground.
Students Helping Honduras is working with community members of Siete de Abril to build a new village. Many of the families lost their belongings in Hurricane Mitch in 1998. A lot of them didn’t have access to clean water or health care, and they didn’t have a school. Fujiyama’s group helped build 44 homes in the village named “Sunshine Village”. The organization is also raising funds to build a water tower, an eco-friendly sanitation system and a library.
小题1: At the beginning of his organization, ________.
| A．Fujiyama was supported by many friends | B．things didn’t go on smoothly |
| C．Fujiyama had little idea of Honduras | D．many famous people joined in |
| A．diligent | B．mean | C．sympathetic | D．cheerful |
| A．brothers’ | B．brother and sister’s | C．friends’ | D．couple’s |
| A．Help the people in need |
| B．Students lend a hand in America |
| C．Fujiyama helps build “Sunshine Village” |
| D．Fujiyama gives poor people in Honduras a second chance |
Peter, safe inside that hole, didn’t have a word to say, or, if he did, he didn’t have breath enough to say it. It was quite true that if he had been one jump farther from that hole, Reddy Fox would have caught him. As it was, the hairs on Peter’s funny white tail actually had tickled Reddy’s back as Peter ran wildly through the root-bound entrance to that hole. It had been the narrowest escape Peter had had for a long, long time. You see, Reddy Fox had surprised Peter eating sweet clover（苜蓿）on the bank of the Smiling Pond, and it had been a lucky thing for Peter that hole, dug long ago by Johnny Chuck’s grandfather, had been right where it was. Also, it was a lucky thing that old Mr. Chuck had been wise enough to make the entrance between the roots of that tree in such a way that it could not be dug any larger.
Reddy Fox was too shrewd（机灵的）to waste any time trying to dig it larger. He knew there wasn’t room enough for him to get between those roots. So, after trying to make Peter as uncomfortable as possible by telling him what he, Reddy, would do to him when he did catch him, Reddy walked across the Green Meadows. Peter remained where he was for a long time. When he was quite sure that it was safe to do so, he crawled out and hurried to the Old Orchard. He felt that that would be the safest place for him, because there were ever so many hiding places in the old stone wall along the edge of it.
小题1: Where is Peter Rabbit hiding?
| A．On the bank of a pond | B．In a hole |
| C．In a tall tree | D．Behind a room |
| A．Reddy Fox might find rabbit hairs on him. |
| B．Old Mr. Chuck took advantage of the roots to dig the hole. |
| C．The hole could be made larger. |
| D．Reddy almost caught Peter this time. |
| A．Because Reddy was trying to get him. |
| B．Because it was cold outside. |
| C．Because his grandfather would help him dig a large hole. |
| D．Because the Old Orchard was not so safe as this hole. |
They had a great time there. However, with their hangovers（宿醉）and tiredness, they overslept all day Sunday and didn’t make it back to Duke until early Monday morning. Rather than taking the final then, they found professor Bonk after the final and explained to him how they missed the final. They told him they went up to the University of Virginia for the weekend and had planned to come back in time to study, but they had a flat tire on the way back and didn’t have a spare. So they were late getting back to campus.
Bonk thought this over and agreed that they could take the final the following day. The two guys, happy and relieved, studied that night and went in the next day at the time that Bonk had told them. He placed them in separate rooms and handed each of them a test booklet. He told them to begin.
They looked at the first problem which was something simple about solution（溶解）. It was worth 5 points. “Cool,” they thought, “this is going to be an easy final”. They then turned the page. They were unprepared, however, for what they saw on it. The question contained only two words: (95 points) Which tire?

One day, David’s teacher announced a 43 homework. "Each of you is going to come up with an 44 ," she said. This was for "INVENT AMERICA", a national competition to encourage creativity in children.
An idea 45 David one evening. If only his mother’s cane didn’t slip on the ice. “What if I 46 your cane to a nail coming out of the bottom” he asked his mother.
