boy sat down at the next table, I couldn"t help overhearing parts of their conversation. At one point the twoman asked, "So, how have you been?" And the boy - 1_____- replied. "Frankly, I"ve been feeling a little depressed lately."

     3_____. Children don"t seem childlike anymore. Children speak more like adults, dress more like

阅读理解。     It was a warm April day when a big fat envelope came in the mail from the only college I had ever
imagined attending. I tore open the packet. My eyes were fixed on the word "congratulations". I don"t
remember ever smiling so wide.
     Then I looked at my rinancial package.
     The cost of Dream School"s tuition, room and board was around  $ 40,OOO-an impossible sum !
How could I afford to attend? What good reasons did I have to go there when three other fine colleges were offering me free tuition? My other choices were good, solid schools even if they weren"t as famous as my first choice.
     In my mind, attending my dream university would be the only way to realize my dream of becoming a
world-class writer. My parents understood how l felt. They told me that even though it would be a financial problem, I could go wherever I would be happiest. But as I was always careful with money, l wasn"t sure what to do.
      One of the schools that offered me a full ride had an informational dinner one night in the spring.
Considering my parents" financial difficulties, l decided to drive the 45 minutes and attend. At first, all I had planned to do was smile politely, eat free food, listen quietly. But I surprised myself.
      At dinner the president of the university talked about the wonderful activities on campus including guest lectures and social gatherings. He also made it perfectly clear that free food would be offered at all future
events. He continued with explanations of professors, class sizes, activities, and sporting events on
campus.  As he spoke, I began to realize that this school, though not as good as my first choice, might be
the best one for me. It seemed small yet with many great programs. It seemed challenging yet caring.
      As the president ended his speech, we clapped politely and pushed back our chain.  As I walked out
of that door, a feeling of comfort washed over me. Looking at the campus that night, l realized that I would be spending the next four years fighting there.
        In all honesty, my university is not as well-known as my " dream"  university.  However, it turned out
to be the right choice of schools for me.1. How did the author feel when he started to read the letter?A.  He was full of joy.                      
B.  He was lost in his dream.
C. He was worried about the money.      
D. He was uncertain which school to go to.2. We can learn from the passage that the parents were _____. A. honest      
B. strict          
C. supportive        
D. decisive3.  In Paragraph 5, " offered me a full ride"  can be replaced by " _____".A. would pay for transport to the school          
B. would show me around the campus
C. would offer free meals at all events      
D. would charge me nothing for tuition4. What does the author mainly want to say?A. Your second-choice college may actually be your best fit.
B. You should consider comfort in your choice of schools.
C. You should try your best to attend your dream school.
D. Your choice of schools should be based on their fame.

阅读理解。     Michael is the kind of guy you love to hate. He is always in a good mood and always has something
positive to say.
     One day I went up to Michael and asked him, "I don"t get it. You can"t be positive all the time. How do you do it?" Michael replied, "Each morning I wake up and say to myself  "Mike, you have two choices
today. You can choose to be in a good mood or you can choose to be in a bad mood." I choose to be in a good mood. Each time something bad happens, I can choose to be a victim or choose to learn from it. I
choose to learn from it. Every time someone comes to me complaining (抱怨), I can choose to accept
their complaining or I can point out the positive side of life. I choose the positive side of life."
     I often thought about that when I made a choice about life. Several years later, Michael was involved in a serious accident, falling off 60 feet from a communication tower. After l8 hours of operation, and weeks of intensive care, Michael was released from the hospital with rods placed in his back. I asked him what
had gone through his mind as the accident took place.
     "The first thing that went through my mind was the well being of my soon-to-born daughter," Michael
replied. "Then, as I lay on the ground, I remembered I had two choices: I could choose to live or I could
choose to die. In the operation room, I told the doctors and nurses, "I"m choosing to live. Operate on me
as if I am alive, not dead"."
     Michael lived, thanks to the skill of his doctors, but also because of his amazing attitude. 1. The underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 really means that Michael is a person _____.A. people would fall in love with          
B. people would easily get tired of
C. people would envy for his positive life attitude
D. people wouldn"t take seriously2. Each time something bad happens, Michael chooses to _____.A. be in a good mood              
B. learn from it
C. complain about it              
D. ignore the negative side of it3. From the passage we can infer that _____.A. most people manage to lead a positive life at any time
B. most people can"t lead a positive life at any time

阅读理解。      When Ray Necochea was building his dream house four years ago, he wrote the story of his life
on a wooden beam below the rooftop, hoping a future relative might discover it.
      With that beam and everything else inside the home destroyed in the firestorm that has struck
southern  California this week, the 55-year-old electric company worker is promising to rebuild on
the same hilltop  overlooking nearby farms and mountain-tops.
      Such scenes of pain and hope for the future are taking place across southern California, where
officialsare gradually lifting evacuation orders to allow residents back into areas damaged by some
of the worst     fires in the state"s history. Officials say the fires destroyed more than 2,000 homes,
often with such fierceness that little remained.
       As a "troubleman" or repair worker for the San Diego Gas & Electric Company, Necochea had
already seen his destroyed home on Monday, but returned on Thursday and mused(沉思) philosophically
on the nature of life and loss.
      "I was so shocked," he said as he looked across what had once been a 4,600 square foot,
three-bedroom home with a swimming pool in an area where the sounds of cows, coyotes and birds,
not the din of modernity, are the soundtrack of daily life. "It was just a burning heap of ash. It was a
horrible feeling; I don"t   wish that on anyone."  1. The fire that struck southern California this week ______.A. was the worst in the human history        
B. made residents there suffer a lot
C. was set by somone on purpose            
D. made local officials upset2. When did Necochea first see his destroyed home?A. On Monday.    
B. On Tuesday.    
C. On Wednesday.    
D. On Thursday.3. Judging by Necochea"s words, we know he felt ______.A. terrible    
B. calm
