instructor asked us to list 1 in our past that we felt 2 of, regretted, or incomplete about and read our lists
aloud.
This seemed like a very 3 process, but there" s always some 4 soul in the crowd who will volunteer.
The instructor then 5 that we find ways to 6 people, or take some action to right any wrongdoings. I was
seriously wondering how this could ever 7 my communication.
Then the man next to me raised his hand and volunteered this story. Making my 8 , I remembered an
incident from high school. I grew up in a small town. There was a Sheriff 9 of us kids liked. One night, my
two friends and I decided to play a 10 on him.
After drinking a few beers, we climbed the tall water tank in the middle of the town, and wrote on the tank
in bright red paint: Sheriff Brown is an s.o.b. The next day, almost the whole town saw our glorious 11 .
Within two hours, Sheriff Brown had us in his office. My friends told the truth but I lied. No one 12 found
out.
Nearly 20 years later, Sheriff Brown"s name 13 on my list. I didn"t even know if he was still 14 . Last
weekend, I dialed the information in my hometown and found there was a Roger Brown still listed. I tried his
number. After a few 15 , I heard, "Hello?" I said, "Sheriff Brown?" Paused. "Yes." "Well, this is Jimmy
Calkins."
"And I want you to know that I did it!" Paused. "I knew it!" he yelled back. We had a good laugh and a 16
discussion. His closing words were: "Jimmy, I always felt bad for you 17 your friends got it off their chest,
but you were carrying it 18 all these years. I want to thank you for calling me…for your sake."
Jimmy inspired me to 19 all 101 items on my list within two years, and I always remember what I learned
from the course: It" s never too late to 20 the past wrongdoings. | ( )1. A. something

chairing a meeting of the tennis club. At last, the traffic was moving. She swung quickly racing to her
house. As she opened the door, she nearly tripped over Sheba.
"Hey, Sheba" she said, "I"ve got no time for you now, but I"ll take you out as soon as I get back from
tennis club." Then she noticed Sheba seemed to be coughing or choking. Obviously, she could hardly
breathe. Immediately Joanne realized she would have to take her to the vet (兽医). When she got there,
the vet was just about to close for the day. Seeing the state of Sheba, Dr. Sterne brought her quickly into
his office.
"Listen, doctor, I"m really in a rush to get to a meeting. Can I leave her with you, and go and get changed?
I"ll be back in ten minutes to pick her up, and then I"ll take her on to the meeting with me. Is that OK?"
"Sure." said the doctor.
Joanne made the quick trip back to her house in a couple of minutes. As she was once more entering
the hallway, the phone by the door began to ring.
"This is Dr. Sterne," said an anxious voice. "I want you to get out of that house immediately," said the
doctor"s voice. "I"m coming round soon, and the police will be there any time now. Wait outside!"
At that moment, a police car screeched to a stop outside the house. Two policemen got out and ran into
the house. Joanne was by now completely confused and very frightened. Then the doctor arrived.
"Where"s Sheba? Is she OK?" shouted Joanne.
"She"s fine, Joanne. I took out the thing which was choking her, and she"s OK now."
Just then, the two policemen reappeared from the house, half-carrying a white-faced man, who could
hardly walk. There was blood all over him.
"My God," said Joanne, "how did he get in there? And how did you know he was there?"
"I think he must be a burglar," said the doctor. "I knew he was there because when I finally removed
what was stuck in Sheba"s throat: it turned out to be three human fingers." | | 1. What was Joanne supposed to do at 6:30? | | [ ] | A. To walk her dog.

D. devoted | | 阅读理解。 | The sun shone in through the dining room window, lighting up the hardwood floor. We had been talking
there for nearly two hours. The phone of the "Nightline" rang yet again and Morrie asked his helper, Connie,
to get it. She had been taking down the callers" names in Morrie"s small black appointment book. It was clear
I was not the only one interested in visiting my old professor-the "Nightline" appearance had made him
something of a big figure-but I was impressed with, perhaps even a bit envious of, all the friends that Morrie
seemed to have.
"You know, Mitch, now that I"m dying, I"ve become much more interesting to people. I"m on the last great
journey here-and people want me to tell them what to pack."
The phone rang again. "Morrie, can you talk?" Connie asked.
"I"m visiting with my old friend now," he announced, "Let them call back."
I cannot tell you why he received me so warmly. I was hardly the promising student who had left him
sixteen years earlier. Had it not been for "Nightline", Morrie might have died without ever seeing me again.
What happened to me? The eighties happened. The nineties happened. Death and sickness and getting fat
and going bald happened. I traded lots of dreams for a bigger paycheck, and I never even realized I was doing
it. Yet here was Morrie talking with the wonder of our college years, as if I"d simply been on a long vacation.
"Have you found someone to share your heart with?" he asked. "Are you at peace with yourself?" "Are you
trying to be as human as you can be?"
I felt ashamed, wanting to show I had been trying hard to work out such questions. What happened to me?
I once promised myself I would never work for money, that I would join the Peace Corps, and that I would
live in beautiful, inspirational places.
Instead, I had been in Detroit for ten years, at the same workplace, using the same bank, visiting the same
barber. I was thirty-seven, more mature than in college, tied to computers and modems and cell phones. I was
no longer young, nor did I walk around in gray sweatshirts with unlit cigarettes in my mouth. I did not have
long discussions over egg salad sandwiches about the meaning of life.
My days were full, yet I remained, much of the time, unsatisfied. What happened to me? | | 1. When did the author graduate from Morrie"s college? | | [ ] | A. In the eighties.
B. In the nineties.
C. When he was 16.
D. When he was 21. | | 2. What do we know about the "Nightline"? | | [ ] | A. Morrie started it by himself.
B. It helped Morrie earn a fame.
C. The author helped Morrie start it.
D. It was only operated at night. | | 3. What can we infer from the passage? | | [ ] | A. Both the author and Morrie liked travelling.
B. Morrie liked helping people pack things for their journeys.
C. The author envied Morrie"s friends the help they got from him.
D. The author earned a lot of money at the cost of his dreams. | | 4. What"s the author"s feeling when he writes this passage? | | [ ] | A. Regretful.
B. Enthusiastic.
C. Sympathetic.
D. Humorous. | | 完形填空。 | I had an interesting experience playing ping-pong last year. I was playing against a 1 opponent (对手).
The score was 20 to 17 in her 2 . I won the next three points which made the score 20 to 20. I 3 my
paddle on the table and thanked my opponent and began to walk away. She called me 4 and said we had
to continue until one of us 5 .
"Look," I said, "if we 6 , one of two events will take place, either you or I will win. If you win, I will
begin to 7 my skill. If I win, you will be unhappy. Isn"t it better to know that we both played 8 , that we
enjoyed the competition, and that we played an even (相等) score?" This was a 9 ending for my opponent
and for the persons watching this contest. It made 10 to me to leave with a tie (不分胜负) game, an impasse
(僵局): no winner, no 11 .
So, my friends, here is the problem 12 me. Our present technology makes it possible for nations to 13
other nations for retaliatory (报复) strikes. In such a nuclear time, there 14 be no winners, only losers. Under
these conditions, the only choice to 15 global destruction is global impasse. This would be a 16 "tie game"
where no nation wins and no nation loses. An impasse reached through compromise (妥协). This is because
compromise becomes the only means of 17 . We cannot destroy this beautiful planet by holding on to 18

D.since | | 阅读理解。 | I found out one time that doing a favor for someone could get you into a lot of trouble. I was in the eighth
grade at the time, and we were having a final test. During the test, the girl sitting next to me whispered
something, but I didn"t understand. So I leaned over her way and found out that she was trying to ask me if I
had an extra pen. She showed me that hers was out of ink and would not write. I happened to have an extra
one, so I took it out of my pocket and put it on her desk.
Later, after the test papers had been turned in, the teacher asked me to stay in the room when all the other
students were dismissed (解散). As soon as we were alone she began to talk to me about what it meant to
grow up; she talked about how important it was to stand on your own two feet and be responsible for your
own acts. For a long time, she talked about honesty and emphasized the fact that when people do something
dishonest, they are really cheating themselves. She made me promise that I would think seriously about all the
things she had said, and then she told me I could leave. I walked out of the room wondering why she had
chosen to talk to me about all those things.
Later on, I found out that she thought I had cheated in the test. When she saw me lean over to talk to the
girl next to me, it looked as if I was copying answers from the girl"s test paper. I tried to explain about the pen,
but all she could say was it seemed very strange to her that I hadn"t talked of anything about the pen the day
she talked to me right after the test. Even if I tried to explain that I was just doing the girl a favor by letting her
use my pen, I am sure she continued to believe that I had cheated in the test. | | 1. The girl wanted to borrow a pen, because _____. | | [ ] | A. she had not brought a pen with her
B. she had lost her own on her way to school
C. there was something wrong with her pen
D. her own had been taken away by someone | | 2. The teacher saw all this, so she asked the boy _____. | | [ ] | A. to go on writing his paper
B. to stop whispering
C. to leave the room immediately
D. to stay behind after the exam | | 3. The thing(s) emphasized in her talk was(were) _____. | | [ ] | A. honesty
B. sense of duty
C. seriousness
D. all of the above | | 4. The boy knew everything _____. | | [ ] | A. the moment he was asked to stay behind
B. when the teacher started talking about honesty
C. only some time later
D. when he was walking out of the room |
