One night．while the man was at work, he _38 that he had extra work to do for the evening, and that he wouldn’t be able to play with his little boy． 39 he wanted to be able to give the boy something to keep him 40 ．So, looking around his office, he saw a magazine with a large 41 of the world on the cover．He got a(n) 42 ．He removed the map, and then patientely tore it up into small pieces．Then he put all the 43 in his coat pocket.
When he got home, the little boy came __44 to him and was ready to play．The man _45that he had extra work to do and couldn’t play just now．He 46 the little boy into the dinning room, and 47 all the pieces of the map．He spread them on the table．He explained that it was a map of the world, and that by the time he could 48 together, his extra work would be 49 , and they could both play．Surely this would keep the child busy for hours, he thought.
About half an hour later the boy came to the man and said, “Okay, it’s finished．Can we play now?”
The man was 50 , saying, “That’s impossible．Let’s have a look.” And 51 __enough, there was the picture of the world, all put together, every piece in its 52 .
The man said, “That’s amazing! How did you do that?” The boy said, “It’s 53 ．On the 54 of the page is a(n) 55 o f a man．When I put the man tog ether the whole world fell into place.”

During one of the toughest weeks of my life, I had the chance to experience surprising grace(善举).
I was in my office, when a young man came by. He was obviously very 36 and close to tears. He was an older student and always appeared like a tough guy, 37 showing emotion.
He had told me 38 that he was dealing with some difficult 39 problems. He was a caregiver for his sister who was ill. This day he came in, sat down and just sobbed(抽泣). I 40 while he told me how he had been up all night in the hospital with his sister and that was why he couldn’t take my exam that morning. I told him not to 41 it at all. He was clearly in no shape for an exam. I told him to go home and 42 . I reassured(使放心) him that I would do everything I could to help him get through the class.
I just sat there while he sobbed. “I think she might die,” he gasped(喘着气说). “What am I going to do?” It was clear to me that he had never 43 this fear out loud to anyone. I just sat there, fully focused on him and his 44 , and tried to offer some soft words of 45 .
After quite some time, he 46 himself. I reassured him again that it didn’t matter to me when he took his exam and that I would help him through. Then he left.
Afterwards, I felt like his 47 was a blessing(为人带来幸福的事). Being able to help him while I was in pain myself was the most valuable gift.

Crazy is our new normal. With two teenage boys and three little boys, our family is restless—to the baseball field, track field(田径场)and piano lessons. Even though we’ve limited each boy’s activities and try our best to defend our family time, it seems that we’re in a constant state of flight.
“Embrace it. Roll with it,” my husband, Lonny, says, “It’s going to be like this for a while.”
He is right. It’s likely that life will continue to go forward before it slows down. But I remembered the still, quiet days that our family used to enjoy. I missed long walks through the park when we held the boys’ little hands. I longed for(渴望) lazy Saturday afternoons under the tree in our backyard. I wanted to slip back a few years, when busyness was the exception and not the rule.
One night, after a particularly full day and evening games, our family gathered on the porch(门廊)for ice cream. Two parents, two teens, and three small boys piled on one old swing and a couple of rocking chairs. We were together, in one place, for a small slice of time.
The moon was full. The Mississippi River, flowing past our home, was smooth as glass. I wrapped my own arms around the son who sat on my lap and breathed deeply to inhale his little-boy scent(气味)—dirt and sweat. My heart was still and content(满足的).
I realized that while crazy is our new normal happiness is as usual. They may look different from before, but they are still there—even if they’re in the form of a single moment on the porch. Maybe I just need the eyes to see.

To help the environment, many Americans have made the change from paper and plastic bags to reusable grocery bags. But a report by a Florida newspaper says that reusable grocery bags sold by some supermarkets contain high levels of lead(铅). Lead is a metal that can be harmful to humans, especially young children, Now, Senator Charles Schumer is asking the US government to investigate(调查) the use of lead in reusable shopping bags.
“When our families go to the grocery store looking for safe and healthy foods to feed their kids, the last thing they should have to worry about is poisonous bags.” Schumer said, “A quick investigation will allow everyone to make informed, timely decisions.” Schumer added.
Lead in the bags is not likely to rub off (因摩擦而粘在……上面)on food. But over time, paint on the bags can chip and the bags can wear out. When this happens, lead can be released(释放).
The Tampa Tribune newspaper said certain bags sold at Publix and Winn-Dixie supermarkets had lead levels that were a concern to health officials. The affected bags were found in Florida. But Publix has more than 1,000 stores in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Sough Carolina and Tennessee. Publix says that all of its bags are under current laws about lead content, but that they have asked the makers of the bags to reduce the lead levels in the product.
The bags with the highest levels of lead had fancy designs and many pictures. Plain reusable bags without decoration were found to contain little lead. Consumers worried about lead levels in reusable bags can change to cloth or string bags. Paper bags are also a good choice, since paper can be recycled(回收).
Since 2007, Publix supermarkets have sold more than 13 million reusable bags. The store says because shoppers have made the change to reusable bags, it has saved more than 1 billion paper and plastics bags.
小题1: The shopping bags containing high levels of lead ______.| A．have been reported by a newspaper | | B．have been stopped by the government | | C．have stopped people from using reusable bags | | D．have caused serious health damage to customers |
小题2:From Schumer’s words we can learn that ______.| A．reusable bags do little harm to kids’ health | | B．people have shown much concern for the reusable bags | | C．people will be informed of the facts about the reusable bags | | D．people should refuse to buy things from supermarkets |
小题3:It can be inferred from the text that Publix might believe that the bags they sold are ______.| A．dependable | B．convenient | C．harmful | D．popular |
小题4:Customers are advised to choose bags ______.| A．with colorful designs | B．with fancy pictures | | C．made of plastic | D．made of paper |
小题5:From the last paragraph we know that the use of reusable bags has ______.| A．caused Publix a lot of trouble | B．saved Publix much money | | C．cost Publix plenty of money | D．been proved a wrong decision |
