阅读理解。     One morning more than thirty years ago, I entered the Track Kitchen, a restaurant where everyone
from the humblest(卑微的) to the most powerful came for breakfast. I noticed an empty chair next to an
elderly, unshaven man, who looked somewhat disheveled. He was wearing a worn-out hat and was alone. I asked if I might join him. He agreed quietly and I sat down to have my breakfast.
      We cautiously began a conversation and spoke about a wide rang of things. We never introduced
ourselves. I was concerned that he might have no money and not be able to afford something to eat. So
as I rose to go back to the counter and buy a second cup of coffee, I asked,
     "My I get you something?"
     "A coffee would be nice."
     Then I bought him a cup of coffee, we talked more, and he accepted another cup of coffee. Finally, I
rose to leave, wished him well, and headed for the exit. At the door I met one of my friends. He asked,
      "How did you get to know Mr. Galbreath?"
      "Who?"
      "The man you were sitting with. He is chairman of the Board of Churchill Downs."
       I  could hardly believe it. I was buying, offering a free breakfast, and feeling pity for one of the
world"s richest and most powerful men!
       My few minutes with Mr. Galbreath changed my life. Now I try to treat everyone with
respect, no matter who I think they are, and no matter another human being with kindness and sincerity.

阅读理解。     One hot night last July, when our new baby wouldn"t or couldn"t sleep, I tried everything I could think
of : a warm bottle, songs gentle rocking. Nothing would settle him. Guessing that I had a long night ahead
of me, I brought a portable TV into his room, figuring that watching the late movie was as good a way as
any to kill of the hours till dawn. To my surprise, as soon as the TV lit up, the baby quieted right down,
his little eyes focused brightly on the tube. Not to waste an opportunity for sleep, I then tiptoes out of the
room, leaving him to watch the actors celebrate John Bellushi"s forty-fifth birthday.
     My wife and I heard none of the baby that night, and the next morning when I went into his room, I
found him still watching TV himself.
     I  found in my baby"s behavior a symbol of the new generation. My wife and I had given him some
books to examine, but he merely spit upon them. When we read to him, he did not feel comfortable. And
so it is in the schools. We find that our students don"t read and they look down upon reading and scold
those of us who teach it. All they want to do is watch TV. After this experience with the baby, however,
I have reached a conclusion: "Let them watch it!" If television is that much more attractive to children than
books, why should we fight about it? Let them watch it all they want! 1. Why did the author bring a TV set into his son"s room?A. To make his son keep quiet.
B. To spend the night by watching TV programs.
C. In order not to let his son feel lonely.
D. To make his son go to sleep as soon as possible. 2. The baby"s reaction to the TV program was _______ . A. unexpected
B. encouraging
C. exciting
D. nervous 3. From this passage we know that the author is  ______.A. a doctor
B. a reporter
C. an editor
D. a teacher4. Accordingg to the passage, which is true of the school children?A. They prefer reading to watching TV.
B. They like watching TV after school.
C. They would rather watch TV than read books.
D. They like their teachers who teach them reading

about it.
     Paul"s good friend, Sam, tried to comfort him. "What"s the big deal? I think Linda is kind of cute and
nice enough."
     Paul glared at Sam. "Then why don"t you ask her to be your girlfriend? There she is, sitting all by
herself at the other end of the cafeteria. Go there and ask her to be your honey!"
     "She"s crazy about you, not me," Sam replied.

notes ."

     "Did you notice those strange brown eyes? Why aren"t they normal red or pink?"

hair is quite pretty. Besides, she"s very gentle and that"s what really matters."

the bag into his lunch box. "Do you have any ideas about how to solve your problem?" Sam asked.

阅读理解。     On Saturday, February 12 two thousand, two things happened that changed everything in my life. The
 first was that on this day my baby sister was married. She was twenty-six this day, and yet to me she 
was still my baby sister. I suppose that I pictured her as a little girl, and treated her like one in order to 
hold onto and preserve my own youth. Until I saw her in her wedding dress I still had a vision of her with
 chubby little cheeks and long, dark-brown pigtails (马尾辫子) blowing in the wind, perhaps even a 
permanent smudge of chocolate around her pink lips. I guess it"s true that you see only what you want to
 see. Where did this beautiful woman with the glowing complexion (皮肤) and gentle curves (身体曲线)
 come from?
      I was happy that day, and also sad. Gone were the days of me bossing her around and telling her 
what she should do with her life. My bossy behavior had earned me the nickname Lucy. If you are a 
Peanuts fan then you can clearly imagine my behavior as an older sister. To me it wasn"t an insult; I rather
 like the nickname Lucy. I happen to think that Lucy is strong and has incredible self-confidence, although 
she is a little overbearing (专横的) at times. I did my best to live up to the standards set forth by this 
dynamic cartoon character.
     I left the reception to get some air because suddenly I was overcome with grief at the realization 
that I was no longer a child. I went outside and walked to a nearby playground where there were
 children playing on the slide, the swings and digging in the dirt. There was a little girl twirling around on a
 bar, one knee wrapped tightly around the bar and fashioned behind her knee. It was all I could do to sit
 there and just watch, for I too wanted to get on that bar with her and see if I could still hold the all-time 
twirling record (ninety-nine times in fifth grade). Somewhere inside I knew that I would break my neck, 
and I was wearing a bridesmaid dress. Not exactly playground material. And so I sat watching the
 children play. I"m not sure how long I sat there before my sister came and joined me. We talked about 
how we are grown up now and shed a few tears for our childhood days gone by. As she wiped a tear
 from my eye she lovingly said, "you"ll always be Lucy to me." We hugged.
     My cousin Mike walked over and told my sister that it was time to cut the cake. And then he
 dropped bomb number two on me. "Hey, did you guys hear that Charles Schultz died today?" He said it
 like it was no big deal. He took my sister"s arm and turned to head back for the reception hall. 
"Coming?" They asked. "In a minute." I replied, and sat back down on the bench, dizzy from what he had 
just told me.
     Dead? How could Charles Schultz be dead? He was my creator! And though I have never met the
 man personally, he has always been like an invisible father to me. He did, after all, fashion a famous
 character after me. I lost so many things on this day. Innocence slipped away from me like a thief in the 
night: come and gone before I could do anything about it, taking with it all the treasures that I held most 
valuable in my heart. I felt myself grow up, all in one moment. Reality rushed in around me like a hurricane
 tide. There was nowhere to run to. All I could do was sit there and watch it destroy and reshape what 
had existed only a moment before. I was no longer a child. I was no longer Lucy who knew what was 
best for everyone else. I saw, for the first time, what I really was—a thirty-year old woman with a
 husband of my own, and soon, a child of my own.
     I allowed the tide to carry my sadness out with it. Take it out to sea, for it serves no purpose in my
 life. I stood up from the bench; a little taller than I was when I sat down. I turned and headed back to
 the hall, hoping I didn"t miss the cutting of the cake. It was the day my sister grew wings of her own and 
left the nest. It was the day that Lucy died, and I was born. 1. Why did the author treat her sister as a little girl?   A. Because the author was older than her sister.
B. Because the author didn"t want to grow up.   
C. Because her sister always wore pigtails and liked eating chocolate.   
D. Because the author didn"t want her sister to get married.2. The author liked the nickname Lucy for the reason that ________.   A. Lucy was lively and confident           
. Lucy was bossy and overbearing   
C. Lucy was her favorite cartoon character    
D. She wanted to imitate Lucy"s behavior.3. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to paragraph 3?  A. The author joined the little girl twirling around on a bar.   
B. The author could still hold the all-time twirling record of ninety-nine times.   
C. The author didn"t want to face the fact that she was no longer a child.   
D. The author"s sister didn"t like her bossy behavior. 4. What can you infer from the passage?  A. The author"s cousin Tom was sad about the death of Charles Schultz.   
B. The author lost many things on that day.   
C. The author had a husband and a child of her own.   
D. Charles Schultz had a great influence on the author"s life. 5. What is implied in the underlined sentence "It was the day that Lucy died, and I was born."? A. The author didn"t like the nickname Lucy any more and wanted to start a new life.
B. Lucy would no longer influence the author and she wanted to be herself.
C. The author would no longer be sad about the lost innocence and face the fact that she was an adult  D. The author would not be bossy towards her sister any longer. 6. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?  A. Two Things That Changed My Life       
B. Letting Go of Yesterday   
C. My Sister And Charles Schultz
