Prana, our beautiful golden retriever (金毛猎犬) whose name means "breath of life", isn"t with us any more. She died of cancer several years ago. But, while sharing our home, she brought such joy and love into our lives that we still miss her.
There are so many wonderful stories about the love in this dog, but my favorite is the one that created an indelible image of how to graciously give what is needed without reserve (储备).
It was an autumn day in Minnesota. But the weather didn" t seem to know the difference between fall and winter. Unexpectedly, we were hit with a big snow fall, for which no one was prepared.
We have two apple trees in our backyard Prana loved apples. When she went outside, she"d grab an apple, stick it far back in her mouth, and sneak it into the house to save for enjoyment later. The apples had been on the ground and were often muddy so I wasn"t always happy that Prana had brought them into the house. Sensing my disapproval, she would turn her head so I wouldn"t see her hidden treasure. It was our little game.
On the day that it snowed too early in the season, Prana went outside and I watched her from the window. I noticed that she was crazily digging holes and bringing the apples to the surface so they could be seen above the snow. I wondered why she was doing this. She seemed to be entirely busy digging up as many apples as possible during her yard time.
When I called her back into the house, she had her usual one apple in her mouth. About five minutes later, I looked outside ---- the yard was completely covered with birds. Prana had dug up all those apples for her bird and squirrel friends to eat. She knew that they wouldn"t have stored enough food to survive such an early winter!
Tears sprung to my eyes as I witnessed this beautiful act of unconditional love from an animal who taught us how to serve life with such grace.

A. she liked playing with the birds
B. she always brought apples into the house

A. she could help her owner store away many apples
B. her bird and squirrel friends could have food in cold weather
C. she could have fun in her yard time
D. she could have something to play with in the house
59. I was deeply moved by Prana because______.
A. she gave what is needed with grace
B. she dug up so many apples in such cold winter
C she gave unconditional love to me with such grace
D. she tried her best to save the birds from the snow
B
The mystery had reached its climax (高潮) The man had undoubtedly been murdered. However, no one present knew who could have killed such a kind person. It was therefore time to call in the great detective, who gave one searching glance at the corpse (尸体), and then used a microscope.
"Aha!" he jumped as he picked a hair off the dead man"s coat "The mystery is a mystery no longer. We have only to find the man who lost this hair, and the criminal will be in our hands. " The chain of logic was complete, and the detective started to do his search.
For four days and four nights he moved unobserved through the streets of New York, scanning closely every face, looking for a man who had lost a hair. On the fifth day he discovered a man pretending to be a tourist and his head was enveloped in a cap reaching below his ears. The man was about to board the Gloritania, and the detective lost no time in following him on board.
"Arrest him!" shouted the detective, and then, drawing himself to his full height, he took out the hair. "This is his," said the great detective, "and it proves his guilt. "
"Remove his hat," ordered the ship"s captain firmly.
It was discovered that the man had no hair.
"Aha!" said the great detective without a moment"s hesitation. "He has committed not one murder, but about one million!"

I go to interview a great man. "What surprises you most in your life?" I ask. The great man answers, "People don"t like to be children; when they grow up, they wish to be children again. They lose their health to make money and then lose their money to restore their health. They think anxiously about the future, but they forget the present, so they live neither for the present nor the future. "
I have never heard of these words. I am silent for a while, write these words down, and then I ask the second question prepared ahead of time, "As a parent, what lessons do you want your children to learn from life?"
The great man answers with a smile, "I want them to learn that they cannot make anyone love them. What they can do is to let themselves be loved. I want them to learn that the most valuable thing is not what they have in their lives, but who they have in their lives. I want them to learn that it is not good to compare themselves with others. I want them to learn that a rich person is not the one who has the most, but is the one who needs the least. I want them to learn to forgive by practicing forgiveness. I want them to learn that there are persons that love them dearly, but do not know how to express their feelings. I want them to learn that money can buy everything but happiness. I want them to learn that two people can look at the same thing and see it differently. I want them to learn that a true friend is someone who likes them anyway. I want them to learn that it is not always enough that they are forgiven by others, but that they have to forgive themselves. "
64. What makes the great man feel puzzled most in his life?
A. People don"t like to be a child nor a grown-up.

C. People don"t live a meaningful life.

E
Thirty years ago, when the movie version of my novel Jaw was published, few people including me knew very much about great white sharks. For hundreds of generations, we humans have been taught to fear and hate sharks, and the movie touched a nerve of horror.
Now something long thought impossible has happened. A great white shark was successfully held in capacity for several months. In August last year a very young female great white shark was caught accidentally in a fisherman"s net off Huntington Beach, California, and then kept in an ocean pen (栏栅) for 25 days. After being moved to the Monterey Bay Aquarium (水族馆), she grew well in the million-gallon Outer Bay Exhibit. She was so lovely that people all liked her very much. Perhaps she was too young to understand that the big tank was not her natural environment, because she didn"t hit her head against the walls in an attempt to swim away as others of her kind have done. And she began to feed almost immediately on small fish offered to her on a pole. In the months that followed, the shark suffered no serious injuries, caught no diseases, and grew noticeably larger, breaking all records for great white sharks in capacity. The longest that any other great white shark had been held was 16 days.
Until February 23, that is, when she hit and killed a soup fin shark (翅鲨) , as she grew bigger and her behavior grew more aggressive, officials at the Aquarium knew the time had come. On March 31, after 198 days in the aquarium, the great white shark was released into the Pacific.
Scientists still have a lot to learn about sharks, especially great white sharks which are now considered to be in danger. Scientists do know that sharks are necessary to ocean health. Remove any significant animal from the sea food chain and you will risk destroying the balance of nature.
72. We can see that in the film Jaw the shark was once described as______.
A. a pet of children B. a horror to human beings
C. a friend of the agedD. a guard of its owner
73. Different from the others of her kind, the young female great white shark was somewhat _____in the beginning.
A. terrible and dangerous B. fierce and cruel C. loyal and friendly D. gentle and lovely
74. By saying that "officials at the aquarium knew the time had come", the writer probably means that the female great white shark______.
A. had to be killed B. escaped from the big tank
C. had to be set free D. began to hit and kill other animals
75. What conclusion can be drawn from the text?
A. We should protect great white sharks as well as other ocean animals.
B. The female great white shark will be attacked by some other animals.
C. Great white sharks are becoming more and more
D. We should kill the enemies of white sharks in the oceans.
