Angels
My friend Heather mentioned that she had never seen an Angel. Then I remembered the 36 I had with my sister Sandra earlier this week.
This will be Sandra’s first Christmas without her husband. This summer he died in her arms. On Thursday, she was in the store 　37　 for an ideal card for her two sons and daughter. Time passed by quickly as she 　38 the many choices. She wanted a card that sent something special to each of them, 　39 she knew they would have a(n) 　40 place in their heart this holiday season.
Finally! She found the one that expressed the 　41 feeling. The words expressed the feelings that she wished to share. However, a sharp pain pierced(穿透) her heart when she realized that the card was 　42 “mom and dad.” She stood there, 　43 it close for a long time, unable to move from the 　44 . Tears began to run down her cheeks.
“Is there something I can do for you?” a 　45 voice asked. She 　46 to face a stranger, a woman, who was looking at her with 　47 and concern. “Uh…oh...OH!” Sandra responded, “I can’t give this card to my children because…because my husband died and this is the 　48 card.”
Hearing this, the stranger’s face softened with sympathy(同情) and love. She reached out and　49 my sister into her arms, giving her unspoken permission to cry in the protection of her embrace(拥抱). She 　50 held my sister until her calmness　51 . “Thank you for listening to me cry on,” was what my sister said when all was better. “You are welcome, and I am so sorry for your 　52 ,” the stranger answered and said goodbye to her.
During her telling of this event I was feeling 　53 that I hadn’t been there. My sister needed me and a stranger had to do my 　54 . “You know,” she went on, “a friend suggested that it was like meeting with an Angel.” My 　55 disappeared in an instant. My sister required an Angel, and I think that is exactly what she got.

Some years ago when I was in my first year in college, I heard Salome Bey sing for the first time. The moment was exciting. Salome’s   36 filled the room and brought the theater to life. I was so   37  that I decided to write an article about her.
I   38  Salome Bey, telling her I was from Essence magazine, and that I wanted to meet her to talk her career. She   39  and told me to come to her studio next Tuesday.

It didn’t take long. My manuscript   45 . How stupid of me! I thought. How could I   46  in a world of professional writers? Knowing I couldn’t   47  the rejection letter, I threw the unopened envelope into a drawer.

While I was in 9 th grade, I built a circuit (电路装置) for the traffic system of our city. After getting the first prize. I got this valuable advice from my father; “Do whatever interests you, and don’t let the work challenge you, make sure you are challenging that work.”
I have always preferred the projects which are challenging and related to real life problems. I clearly remember building a shipping program several years ago. I divided the whole project into several small sections. When I understood it clearly, used my brainstorming skill on it, and gave some basic ideas. Then I asked my professor for help before jumping into coding (编码). At first, I did not know how to ask questions correctly and always asked the question “How do I do it?” As I kept working and discussed with my professor, I became more comfortable and those “how ”questions soon turned into “what if I do this and that” types of questions.
It took me four days to write the code. The desire to solve the problem kept me sleepless all nights brainstorming in even greater details. Every time I saw my program running smoothly, I exploded with joy. I still remember the last day of my work. I was getting some problem and didn’t know what to do. At that moment, a man came in to clean. He has headphones, and he was dancing while cleaning the room. Seeing this, I burst out laughing. That moment calmed me. I regained energy and interest and started to work again, and soon I fixed the problem.
My success in the project proved that breaking up a large problem into small parts could help find a possible solution. Discussing the problem with others was also very beneficial. Now I have gained the confidence to attempt any kind of project.

A．developing traffic systems

A．he had no clear idea about his program
B．he was too shy to express himself
C．he wanted to he understood easily
D．he preferred this kind of question
61．We learn from the passage that the writer’s shipping program         .
A．would benefit people a lot
B．was done together with others
C．was difficult and needed patience
D．cost much money and energy
62．What would be the best title of the passage?
A．Do It Yourself
B．No Pains, No Gains

阅读下面的短文，并根据要求回答后面的问题。（注意字数要求）
[1] If you are applying for an American higher education, you probably dream of getting into an Ivy League （常青藤联盟） university．The eight schools with the best reputations attract top students from the United States and many other countries．However, on average, the Ivy League schools accept less than 15 percent of applicants．And with the applicants growing in size year on year, it is becoming more and more difficult _________．
[2] So how can you give yourself the best chance of admission?
[3]Having a high school grade point average （GPA） in the top 10 percent of your class and being ranked among the top few students dramatically betters your chances．But although GPA and SAT scores are important, they only tell admission deans（主任） part of the story．
[4] The whole admissions process will single out （挑选出） from a large pool of academically strong applicants the unique individuals．They stand out because they have shown in their interviews a range of virtues （优点） expected of these universities．Take Harvard for example．Although there is no guarantee of admission, the school judges applicants based on 15 additional criteria．
[5] Intellectual curiosity （求知欲） comes first tor almost all admission deans．Schools look to such students because they believe their peers find them slimulaling（激励人的）inside and outside the classroom．
[6] Leadership also weighs heavily．The school would rather see an applicant who takes on additional responsibility in one or two areas where he or she is good at, rather than one who is merely "very good" academically．This can mean the class presidencv（主席职务）, leading the cheerleading team or being the officer of a student union．
[7] Whether a person has personal warmth and cares about others counts a lot with the admission deans．Writing an essay on a personal experience, like a summer spent raising funds for the earthquake victims or teaching in a local school, can show that a person has qualities in addition to academic experience．
76．What is the purpose of the passage? （no more than 15 words）
77．Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one?
The universities pay attention to the students with this virtue in that they can inspire their fellow students at school.
78．Fill in the blank in the first paragraph with proper words or phrases to complete the sentence. (no more than 5 words)
79．Based on the passage, list three additional criteria for admission besides academic performance．（no more than 10 words）
①_________________ ②_______________ ③____________________
80．Translate the underlined sentence in the fourth paragraph into Chinese.

Finally, the last rider neared the sport where the old man sat like a snow   34 . As this one drew near ,the old man   35 the rider’s eye and said, “Sir, would you mind giving an old man a   36  to the other side?” There appear to be passage way by foot."
Reining his horse, the rider replied, “Sure. Hop aboard.” Seeing the old man was unable to   37  his half – frowned body from the ground, the horseman dismounted and helped the old man onto the horse. The horse took the old man not just across the fiver ,but to his   38 .
As they neared the cottage, the horseman’   39 caused him to inquire ,"Sir ,I notice that you let several other riders   40 without making an effort to secure a ride. Then I came up and you   41 asked me for a ride. I"m curious. What if I had   42 and left you there?"
The old man   43 himself slowly down from the horse, looked the rider straight in the eyes, and replied, "I’ve been around here for some time .I   44 I know people pretty good. The old – timer continued. I looked into the eyes of the other riders and immediately saw there was no   45 for my situation. It would have been   46 even to ask them for a ride. But when looked into your eyes, kindness and compassion were   47 . I knew, then and there, that your gentle spirit would welcome the opportunity to give me   48 my time of need.”
Those heartwarming comments   49 the horseman deeply.
“I"m most grateful for what you have said.” He told the old man .""May I have get too   50 in my own affairs that I fail to respond to the needs of others with kindness and compassion ."
With that Thomas Jefferson turned his around and made his way back.
