years and as I walked along the street, my mind was flooded by memories of the past. I saw the old
apartment building where I had lived and the playground where I had played. As I viewed these once
familiar surroundings, images of myself as a child there came to mind. However, what I saw and what I
remembered were not the same. I sadly realized that the best memories are those left untouched.
My old apartment building, as I remember, was bright and alive. It was more than just a place to live.
It was a movie house, a space station, or whatever my young mind could imagine. I would steal away
with my friends and play in the basement. This was always exciting because it was so cool and dark, and
there were so many things there to hide among. There was a small river in the back of the building. We
would go there to lie in the shade of trees and enjoy ourselves.
However, what I saw was completely different. The apartment building was now in disrepair. What
was once more than a place to live looked hardly worth living in. The windows were all broken. The
once clean walls were covered with dirty marks. The river was hardly recognizable. The water was
polluted and the trees and flowers were all dead. The once sweet-smelling river now smelled terrible. It
was really heartbreaking to see all this.
I do not regret having seen my old neighborhood. However, I do not think my innocent childhood
memories can ever be the same. I suppose it is true when they say, "You can never go home again."
B. he was very imaginative when he was a child
C. he had had pleasant memories of his old neighborhood
D. he had come from a very poor neighborhood
B. Very regretful.
C. Quite excited.
D. Very sad.
B. had been repaired
C. could hardly be recognized
D. looked dirty and smelt horrible
B. one will never find his hometown the same as it was in his childhood memory
C. a visit to one"s hometown will bring back one"s pleasant memories of home
D. a visit to one"s hometown will bring back many sad memories

searched the country within a dozen miles of where I live. In imagination I have bought all the farms, one
after another, and I knew their prices.
The nearest thing that I came to actual ownership was when I bought the Hollowell place. But before
the owner completed the sale with me, his wife changed her mind and wished to keep it, and he offered
me additional dollars to return the farm to him. However, I let him keep the dollars and sold him the farm
for just what I gave for it.
The real attractions of the Hollowell farm to me were its position, being about two miles from the
village, half a mile from the nearest neighbor, bounded (相邻) on one side by the river, and separated from
the highway by a wide field. The poor condition of the house and fences showed that it hadn’t been used
for some time. I remembered from my earliest trip up the river that the house used to be hidden behind a
forest area, and I was in a hurry to buy it before the owner finished getting out some rocks, cutting down
the apple trees, and clearing away some young trees which had grown up in the fields. I wanted to buy it
before he made any more of his improvements. But it turned out as I have said.
I was not really troubled by the loss. I had always had a garden, but I don’t think I was ready for a
large farm. I believe that as long as possible it is better to live free and uncommitted (无牵挂的). It makes
but little difference whether you own a farm or not.
B. He made a study of many farms before buying.
C. He made money by buying and selling farms.
D. He had the money to buy the best farm in the country.
B. It was next to the highway.
C. It was is a good position.
D. It was behind a nice garden.
B. He hoped to enlarge the forest on the farm.
C. He wanted to keep the farm as it was.
D. He was eager to become a farm owner.
B. the sale of the garden in the Hollowell place
C. the removal of the trees around the house
D. the failure to possess the Hollowell place
B. To satisfy his needs.
C. To be free from worries.
D. To live in the countryside.
going to become a teacher I have a horrible fear of giving presentations. My main problem is that I shake, which causes my paper to move when I hold it. Also I feel my heart beating so fast that I almost cannot
hear myself or pay attention to anything else. In my other semesters I only had one presentation which
only lasted for a few minutes. This, however, is my professional semester and there are about three
presentations per class and some of them have to be 30 minutes long! Now I feel like I"m in the wrong
field because of how nervous I become. But the thing is, I have already had students taught and have a lot of experience with children, and when I am around children I am completely comfortable. Children don"t
judge people and I just don"t get nervous around them. That is why I don"t understand why they make us
do so many presentations in front of our peers (同龄人) as if they were children!
I am just so nervous about getting up in front of my class this semester! I can"t stop fearing it and I"m
set for failure. It"s strange. I have a good friend in my class and I seem to be more nervous with her being
there than when she is not there! Maybe that"s because I don"t know or don"t really care about the rest of
the students in the class.
B. deal with students in elementary school
C. make many public presentations in front of his / her peers
D. work with his / her good friends
presentations?
B. Tense.
C. Exciting.
D. Disappointed.
B. the author performs better when his / her friend is not there
C. the author is disliked by most of his / her classmates
D. the author is eager to get help and support from his / her friend
B. an interesting experience of the author in the professional semester
C. stories about the relationship between the author and his / her friend
D. the author"s problem of giving presentations

Thursday has become our day to go out and make a positive contribution. On this particular Thursday, we had no idea exactly what we were going to do. At noon, I drove to a McDonald"s with my daughters
because they kept complaining that they hadn"t had enough to eat at breakfast. There we saw some
homeless people in the street and we bought lunch for them.
We were about to complete when we found a small woman standing at the corner, asking for change. We handed her some food, and then started to head home. Suddenly from the mirror of the car, I saw the woman waving at us, so I had to turn around and stopped where the small woman stood. She walked to
our car, and said, "Thank you, lady! No one has ever done anything like this for me before." I replied, "Well, I"m glad that we were the first." Feeling uneasy, and wanting to move the conversation along, I asked,
"So, when do you think you"ll eat your lunch?"
She just looked at me with her huge, tired brown eyes and said, "Oh honey, I"m not going to eat this
lunch." I was confused, but before I could say anything, she continued. "You see, I have a little girl of my
own at home and she just loves McDonald"s, but I can never buy it for her because I just don"t have the
money. But you know what... tonight she is going to have McDonald"s!"
I don"t know if the kids noticed the tears in my eyes. So many times I had questioned whether our Acts of Kindness were too small to have effect on those poor people. Yet at that moment, I realized the truth of Mother Teresa"s words: "We cannot do great things - only small things with great love."
