     Mom was a teacher most of her life.When she wasn"t in the classroom,she was educating
 her children or grandchildren:correcting our grammar,starting us on collection of butterflies,
flowers or rocks;or inspiring a discussion on her most recent "Book of the Month Club"
 topic.Mom made learning fun.
     It w as sad for my three brothers and me to see her ailing in her later years.At 
eighty-five,she suffered a stroke and she went steadily downhill after that.
     Two days be fore she died,my brothers and I met at her nursing home and took her 
for a short ride in a wheelchair.While we waited for the staff to lift her limp body back 
into bed,Mom fell asleep.Not wanting to wake her,we moved to the far end of the room 
and spoke softly.
     After several minutes our conversation was interrupted by a muffled sound coming
 from across the room.We stopped talking and looked at Mom.Her eyes were closed,
but she was clearly trying to communicate with us.We went to her side.
     "Whirr," she said weakly.
     "Where?" I asked."Mom,is there something you want?" "Whirr." she repeated a bit
 stronger.My brothers and I looked at each other and shook our heads sadly.
     Mom opened her eyes,sighed,and with all the energy she could muster said,"Not 
was.Say were!"
      It suddenly occurred to us that Mom was correcting brother"s Jim"s last sentence,
"if it was up to me..."
     Jim leaned down and kissed her cheek."Thanks,Mom," he whispered.We smiled at 
each other and once again shook our heads this time in awe of a remarkable teacher.


1.When Mom said,"Whirr",what did she really want to do?_____ A.She wanted to tell her sons her will.
B.She wanted to have something to eat before she died.
C.She wanted to correct the mistakes Jim made while talking.
D.She wanted to te ach her sons more because she was dying.  2.Which of the following statements is NOT right?_____. A.Mom was a good teacher and never wanted to stop her teaching.

C.Mom didn"t forget her teaching until she died.

完形填空     Towards the end of the baseball game, a controversial call was given. At full speed Paul Harvey slid
home (本垒)and, thinking he had just ___1___ a game-changing run, he stood up only to face the
words, "You"re ___2___!"
     Angry, he threw off his helmet and ran over to explain to the ___3___ why the call was wrong.
Before his ___4___ really got out of control, someone pulled him away, and he walked to the bench—
___5___.   
     Long after the coaches, players, and fans had gone home, he realized the impact of his ___6___.
Like most of us do when we are faced with the __7___ of our actions, he could have just let it go,
reasoning, "Everybody ___8___ it."
     However, in the silence of his heart, he knew that just ___9___ everyone else does it, that doesn"t
make it all right. And so, long after his friends had gone home, he ___10___ that coach back up to the
school-not to ___11___ his car. No, the boy tracked this man down so he could tell him face to face,
"I"m sorry, Sir. It was all my___12___."
     It takes true courage to stand up to face the ___13___ we all make and say, "I was wrong. I"m
sorry." What makes this ___14___ unique is that it wasn"t meant for the world to ___15___, it was
meant simply as a way to stay ___16___ to his own heart.
     The truth is at one time or another we have all been this boy —___17___ out in anger, saying hurtful
things, and feeling ___18___ for doing so. But the real test comes later when we are ___19___ with the
choice to say "sorry" or to walk away thinking, "Ah, they"ll get over it."
     Maybe the "they" is a customer, a friend, or a child. Whoever it is, don"t pass up the opportunity to
get right with your own heart. The time for apology is now! Courage is a ___20___ of the heart.

     The career of Henrik Ibsen was directly influenced by his childhoo. In later years, the great
playwright remembered only a cruel, angry father, forced by business defeats to move the family
to an old farm outside Skien, Norway. Ibsen"s mother, no longer welcomed in the homes of her
wealthy friends, started to suffer from depression. At sixteen, the young Ibsen left home, working
as an appretice(学徒)in Gerimstad.
     Failure, for Ibsen, became a way of life. Catalina, his first literary attempt, was impossible to
sell. The privately printed book was eventually sold as packing paper to a grocer. Ibsen sought
admission to the university in Oslo but failed the entrance examinations. He tried a career as a
journalist, without success. As a stage manager, first in Bergen, then in Oslo, he did better, but
lost the latter job when the theater closed down. The experience was not altogether wasted. At
Bergen, Ibsen"s agreement required him to provide one new play each year, and although none
of the five he produced was well received, the requirment forced him to learn the techniques of
his trade.
     In 1864, Ibsen took his wife and baby son to Rome, Italy, where they spent five years living
in poor conditions. On the edge of starvation, he wrote Brand, dealing with the subject he knew
best: failure. Six months after he sent Brand to Danish publishers, his fortune had changed completely.
The play was brought out in March, 1866, becoming an immediate success. With Brand and Peer
Gynt, written in the same period, Ibsen won recognition at last. Awarded an annual fixed payment
and the title of national poet by Norway, he dropped his shabby clothes and became a well-dressed,
neatly barbered, distinguished writer.
1. Which of the following best describes Ibsen"s childhood?
A. Lonely.  
B. Peaceful.  
C. Unhappy.  
D. Surprising.
2. Ibsen benefited a lot from his experience as _______.
A. an apprentics      
B. a university student  
C. journalist    
D. a stage manager
3. Ibsen"s first successful work was written in ____.
A. Grimstad    
B. Bergen    
C. Oslo  
D. Rome
4. What can learn from the passage?
A. One is never too old to learn.      
B. Experience is the best teacher.
C. Failure is the mother of success.    
D. Wisdom is better than gold or silver.
