| 阅读理解。 | My granddaughter, Shari, owns The Berry (莓果) Factory in Sacramento, California, and her mother,
Joan, and I were helping with the Valentine"s Day rush. We"d dipped (浸泡) hundreds of berries, arranged
gift baskets and packaged orders to be shipped around the country.
By the end of the day, the two middle-aged women, Joan and I, were exhausted. Shari didn"t seem tired.
That was typical Shari. Though she was very busy, I"d seen her give away berries to everybody -parking
attendants, mail carriers and hairdressers."For me?" they would say, bursting into a smile.
As a"thank you", Shari took us out for dinner. But there was a 45-minute wait at her favorite restaurant.
"No big deal. There"s another place just up the road," she said, driving us there. This time we walked right in.
When the waitress came to take our drink orders, Shari reached into her handbag, pulling something out.
"I want you to have these," she said, handing the waitress a box of chocolate-dipped strawberries."She will
love those berries!" I thought. But the waitress seemed startled. She only let out a "thank you" before grabbing
the box and rushing into the kitchen.
A few minutes later, the waitress returned with our iced tea."I apologize," she said. "My best friend and I
had promised to send each other something every Valentine"s Day. But she passed away last year. I didn"t
know how I"d get through this day without her. Then you handed me that box.""I"m so sorry to hear that,"
said Shari. "It"s not much, but I hope you can enjoy them." "Oh, I will," the waitress said."See, every year we
always sent each other the same thing; a box of chocolate-dipped strawberries bought from our favourite
store, The Berry Factory." | | 1. What can be inferred in the first paragraph? | A. The Berry Factory is a gift store

Harvard"s main buildings are from the 18th century. They look very old and 3 . You might 4 say they"re
a little shabby (破旧). They don"t fit the modern 5 of university at all. The buildings are surrounded by 6
and trees, so I felt as if I had walked into a castle of the Mid-Ages. But when I looked across the street, the 7
shops and in-fashion (时尚的) students made me feel like I was in the 21st century 8 . It creates a strong
contrast (对比) and brings a special 9 to the school.
Our tour 10 Gary took us around and told us."You see this grass field in the center of the school? Here is
where they hold their 11 ceremony. They just set up tents and benches and have a very simple ceremony."
It"s 12 ! Who would think the most talented students just graduate on the grass?
I 13 some students put a blanket on the grass and lie down to read a book. When I listened to the soft
sound of 14 turning, along with the singing of the birds, I felt very 15 . There was no competitive feeling
at all.

"Is the man of the house home?" they asked. "No", she replied, "He"s out.""Then we cannot come in",

In the evening when her husband came home, she told him what had happened."Go to tell them I am
home and invite them in!" The woman went out and invited the men in."We do not go into a house together,"

inviting Wealth to fill their home with wealth. And his wife wanted to invite Success; but their daughter-in-law

wife."Go out and invite Love to be our guest."

guest." Love got up and started walking toward the house. The other two also got up and followed him.
Surprised, the lady asked Wealth and Success:"I only invited Love, Why are you coming in?" The old men
