阅读理解。     In my profession as an educator and health care provider, I have worked with numerous children
infected with the virus that causes AIDS. The relationships that I have had with these special kids have
been gifts in my life. They have taught me so many things, but I have especially learned that great courage
can be found in the smallest of packages. Let me tell you about Tyler.
     Tyler was born infected with HIV: his mother was also infected.From the very beginning of his life, he
was dependent on medications to enable him to survive. When he was five, he had a tube surgically
inserted in a vein in his chest. This tube was connected to a pump, which he carried in a small backpack on his back. Medications were hooked up to this pump and were continuously supplied through this tube to
his bloodstream.At times, he also needed supplemented oxygen to support his breathing.
     Tyler wasn"t willing to give up one single moment of his childhood to this deadly disease. It was not
unusual to find him playing and racing around his backyard, wearing his medicineladen backpack and
dragging his tank of oxygen behind him in his little wagon. All of us who knew Tyler marveled at his pure
joy in being alive and the energy it gave him.Tyler"s mom often teased him by telling him that he moved so
fast that she needed to dress him in red.That way, when she peered through the window to check on him
playing in the yard, she could quickly spot him.
     This dreaded disease eventually wore down even the likes of a little dynamo like Tyler. He grew quite ill and, unfortunately, so did his HIVinfected mother. When it became apparent that he wasn"t going to s
urvive, Tyler"s mom talked to him about death. She comforted him by telling Tyler that she was dying
too, and that she would be with him soon in heaven.
     A few days before his death, Tyler beckoned me over to his hospital bed and whispered,"I might die
soon. I"m not scared. When I die, please dress me in red.Mom promised she"s coming to heaven,too. I"ll
be playing when she gets there, and I want to make sure she can find me."  1. What is the boy Tyler"s attitude towards death?A. pessimistic  
B. optimistic  
C. sorrowful  
D. fearful 2. Tyler requested the writer to dress him in red when he died simply because _____.A. red is a lucky color
B. red might help to cure him
C. his mom could spot him easily
D. he could find more mates by wearing red 3. Which of the following might serve as a possible title for this passage?A. My unusual profession  
B. A caring mother
C. Mother and son  
D. Dying in red 4. The underlined word "dynamo" in the fourth paragraph here means _____.A. a promising and helpful youth
B. an extremely energetic person
C. a rare and beautiful flower
D. a magic and understanding superstar

阅读理解。     More and more people are annoyed at the continually rising house prices. They want to know who is to blame for it. Local governments, developers and speculators (投机商) share a vested (既得的) interest in it. People who are really in need of homes are most likely to suffer heavy losses.
     Many local governments depend on selling land to keep its normal operation. The higher land prices,
the more money. Therefore, developers back the local governments by buying land at high prices. In
return, the governments make favorable policies to help the developers. For example, drive all the possible home buyers to this nasty (危险的) market. They even encourage large numbers of speculators to catch
more people.
     Rising house prices have already become the fence which divides the Chinese society. It has caused
widespread dissatisfaction. The government will lose the support of the common people if leaving house
prices out of control. Besides, rising house prices will stop us building the new countryside as the present
policy actually forbid people to flow freely from cities to the countryside.
     Collecting taxes on houses can fundamentally solve this problem. On one hand, it will discourage the
speculators. On the other hand, it will offer a stable tax resource apart from reducing the sales cost of the
developers. Secondly, stop the developers selling the houses before completion. If so, the developers will certainly try their best to sell all their houses once completed. And this will also lower speculators"
expectation of price rising, which will decrease speculations.1. The only victims of rising house prices are _____.A. governments  
B. real home buyers
C. developers  
D. speculators 2. The local governments reward the developers by _____.A. offering enough land  
B. allowing sales in advance
C. providing enough buyers  
D. making favorable policies 3. We can infer from the passage that continually rising house prices will _____.A. benefit the government
B. draw more home buyers
C. help the housing industry develop soundly
D. affect the sound development of the Chinese society 4. Collecting taxes on houses has all the following effects except _____.A. making the developers do their best to sell their houses
B. cutting down speculations
C. supplying a stable tax resource for the government
D. decreasing the sales cost

clinic in Hawaii.My kids had gone to live on the mainland,and I was alone.Then they asked me to have
a family trip.
     On our trip, we turned on the TV at the motel and saw the second plane crash into the World Trade
Center. Seeing it falling down,I said to my kids:"I"m going to Afghanistan."And a few weeks later,
International Medical Corps sent me to set up 20 clinics in provinces where people had no health care.
In these field clinics surrounded by frightening shoots or deadly bombs,we were eventually serving
27,000 patients a month in a very busy schedule.Tired and nervous,I gradually had a sense of
achievement, a sense of purpose,and my depression went away.

Sudan after the civil war, and Iraq after more and more bombs.Each time after disasters one after
another, hundreds of people were killed,wounded and many more had to flee.We once set up movable
clinics in an area with 19,000 refugees,_and it was supposed to hold 13,000 originally.Flu broke out,
one of the biggest killers of kids in refugee camps, and it spread like wildfire.Water and food were also
serious problems."Adventures or not?" I often asked myself.
     When my wife passed away,I thought my life was done.But in reality, it was just getting started.At the
end of her life,she went unconscious.I held her head in my hands and told her of all the places we would
visit and the exciting adventures we would have.
     I think about the moment many times during my "adventures". I didn"t know how predictive those
words would be.But I know that she is still with me.

     During the years of depression(萧条), food and money were very hard to find and people had to trade
things with each other.

     Mrs Miller, who had been standing nearby,   4_ and told me that Mr Miller loved to trade with the
three boys in the village for peas, tomatoes, and other things   5   he didn"t really need any marbles. I left
the stand, smiling to myself,   6   by this man.
     Several years went by. One day I learned that Mr Miller had died. I took part in the funeral(葬礼),
_7    three young men . They came over to Mrs Miller, hugged her, kissed her on the cheek, spoke with
her and moved on,   8   their eyes.
