When he 39 up this morning, Tony was feeling 40 . He jumped out of bed full of plans for the weekend 41 . It would be a weekend like any other --- a great weekend. But that was 42 he turned on his computer and 43 he was unable to go online. Having no Internet changes everything.
Every weekend, Tony 44 goes online to email friends, read the 45 to keep up with what’s happening in the world and 46 a few online chess games with his cousin Helen to finish the weekend off. The perfect weekend --- online!

“Oh, yes! Helen lives just around the 52 . We can meet and play chess face to face for a 53 . Maybe this weekend won’t be so bad,” Tony 54 , as he walks to the phone. There is 55 without the Internet after all.

举一反三
She was absent(缺席) a lot , and one day I had the courage to ask why. She told me she was sick, and she explained she wore a wig(假发) because her medicine made her lose her hair. We left it at that. Anytime Lisa came to class—seldom—I would hang around with her on the playground.
I received much ridicule (嘲笑) from my friends for this because they thought I was ignoring them for Lisa. My family education taught me to be nice, and I felt Lisa’s needs were much more important than others I knew.
It had been months since Lisa was in our class, and one day our teacher was crying. She explained Lisa died the day before and would no longer be our classmate. She told us Lisa had fought a battle (斗争)with cancer for years.
I was shocked. Lisa never spoke of her illness as if it could kill her. Well, all these years I have kept Lisa in my mind and heart. When I go through the important events in my life, I think of Lisa.
I’ve had a strong wish recently to find her mother and father. I’d like to tell them that though they never met me, their daughter had a sweet effect on my life. I have no idea what her parents’ first names are. I write to your column (栏目)and hope you can point me in the right direction.
Lisa was such a lovely girl. Maybe her parents would be comforted by the fact that after all these years they are not the only ones who remember her.
小题1:The underlined sentence in Para 2 probably means ________________.
A.we kept on talking about her illness later |
B.we discussed the topic and then left together |

D.we went away after talking about her illness |
A.Because she wore a wig to school |
B.Because she always played with Lisa. |
C.Because she cried in the classroom |
D.Because she lost her friends because of Lisa. |
A.To keep your illness a secret. |
B.To be nice to everyone everywhere. |
C.To face challenges in life bravely. |
D.To put others’ needs above yours. |
A.remember a true friend | B.ask for help to find a friend’s parents |
C.show her concern for a friend | D.tell her experience of fighting cancer |
A few days later be asked me to help him again, because he 38 how to do it. when I began to show this to him, some students in my class 39 and began to talk among themselves 40 . Later that day, at lunch time, I was 41 by several of them.
“Hey, could you help us change our grades in math? We’ll 42 you…”
I could not believe what I was hearing.I could get paid for something very 43 ." All right.I"ll do it." The next day my math teacher 44 me to help him out.When he was not paying attention, I began to change their grades from F"s to A"s.
I soon became very 45 among my friends.They began to treat me like a god with a magical 46 .I began to change the grades of students.Word 47 quickly and I became very rich.
Everything was going fine 48 I was called into the headmaster"s office.When I got there, my teacher was mad, and the headmaster had an angry 49 in his eyes. "I have known you for three years now.I don"t want to 50 what your teacher said, but I"m afraid that I must.He has too much 51 , " he said." Do you have anything to say 52 yourself?" he asked.
"No." I said finally.I did not realize how serious my actions had been.I had violated the 53 of my teacher, and the headmaster.And there was no way 54 .I was forced to leave my school.
That was a good 55 for me.

Dr.: Mellinkoff asked to see the patient.He introduced himself in Spanish and, in a very gentle voice, asked how he felt.The patient smiled and said everything was all right.Then the doctor asked if he was able to eat.The patient said that he had no desire to eat.
"Are you getting food you like?"
The patient said nothing.
"Do you get the kind of food you have at home?"
The answer was no.
The doctor put his hand on the man’s shoulder and his voice was very soft.
"If; you had food that you liked, would you eat it?"
"Yes, yes," the patient said.
The change in the patient’s appearance couldn’t have been more obvious.Nothing was said, but it was easy to tell that a message had been sent and! had also been received.
Later, the doctor asked why the Guatemalan man wasn’t getting food he could eat.One of the students said, "We all know how difficult it is to get the kitchen to make special meals."
"Suppose," the doctor replied, "you felt a certain medicine was absolutely necessary but that our hospital didn’t carry it, would you accept defeat or would you insist the hospital meet your request?"
"I would probably insist," the student said.
"Very well," the doctor said."You might want to try the same method in the kitchen.It won’t be-easy, but I can help you.Meanwhile, let’s get some food inside this man as fast as possible, and stay with it.Or he’ll be killed by hunger.By the way, there must be someone among you who can speak Spanish.If we want to make real progress, we need to be able to talk with him."
Three weeks later.Doctor Mellinkoff told me that the Guatemalan man had left the hospital under his own power.It takes more than medicine to help sick people; you also have to talk to them and make them comfortable.
小题1:The patient had no desire to eat because
A.he was not hungry | B.he was seriously ill |
C.he was given special meals | D.he was not satisfied with the food |
A.the patient’s native language was Spanish |
B.the patient’s illness was caused by hunger |
C.Dr. Mellinkoff performed an operation on the patient |
D.the hospital failed to provide the right medicine for the patient |
A.Cold. | B.Considerate. | C.Curious. | D.Careless. |
A.Doctors should be good at foreign languages. |
B.Doctors should know their patients’ real problems. |
C.Doctors should try to improve their medical skills. |

Away from home, eating is more than just a way to keep your stomach full.It is a language all its own, and no words can say, "Glad to meet you ...glad to be doing business with you ..." quite like sharing a meal offered by your host.
Clearly, mealtime is not the time for you to say, "Thanks, but no thanks." Acceptance of the food on your plate means acceptance of host, country, and company.So, no matter how difficult it may be to swallow, swallow.Or, as one experienced traveler says, "Travel with a cast-iron stomach and eat everything everywhere."
Often, the food offered represents proudly your host country’s eating culture.What would Ataiericans think of a French person who refused to take a bite of homemade apple pie or sirloin? Our discomfort comes not so much from the thing itself; it comes from our umamiliarity with it.After all, an oyster has remarkably the same look as a sheep’s eye; and a first look at a lobster would remind almost anybody of a creature from a science fiction movie, not something you dip in butter and eat.By the way, in Saudi Arabia sheep’s eyes are a famous dish and in parts of China it’s bear’s paw soup.
Can you refuse such food without being rude? Most experienced business travelers say no, at least not before taking at least a few bites.It helps, though, to slice any item very thin.This way, you minimize the taste and the reminder of where it came from.Or, " Swallow it quickly, " as one traveler recommends."I still can’t tell you what sheep’s eyeballs taste like." As for dealing with taste, the old line that "it tastes just like chicken" is often thankfully true.Even when the "it" is really rat or snake.
Another useful piece of advice is not knowing what you are eating.What’s for dinner? Don’t ask. Avoid glancing into the kitchen or looking at English-language menus.Your host will be pleased that you are eating the food he offers, and who knows? Maybe it really is chicken in that soup.
小题1:The purpose of the article is to ____.
A.introduce unfamiliar food |
B.share the writer’s personal experiences |
C.suggest ways to overcome a cultural barrier |
D.advise on how to politely refuse to eat foreign food |
A.the way it looks | B.safety worries |
C.lack of information about it | D.the unfamiliar atmosphere |
A.an American may feel comfortable with sirloin |
B.one should refuse strange food after a few bites |
C.English-language menus are not always dependable |
D.one needs a cast-iron stomach to travel in other cultures |
A.showing respect for chicken-loving nations |
B.greeting people with different dieting habits |
C.evaluating chefs at an international food festival |
D.getting someone to try a visually unpleasant meal |
Modernizing these practices is what employment equality is about.For example, making sure work benches and washrooms are adapted for disabled people entering the workplace paves the way for workers who become disabled on the job.By doing so, any given group of people? formerly discriminated against-now has access to better employment opportunities.
The objective, of course, is to make the workplace reflect Canadian society.However, this does not necessarily mean setting and enforcing quotas(实行配额). Rather, it means identifying the barriers to employment and designing measures, with achievable goals and clear timetables, to remove them.
For example, according to the Canadian Union of Public Employees-Canada’s largest union, it would be unrealistic in the short term to insist that because half of the working age population is women, that half of the employees of an engineering firm should be women.At this moment, there would not be enough qualified female engineers.
A reasonable numerical goal would be based on the number of women who actually are engineers (8% ) and those who are studying to become engineers (25% ).A short term goal of 13% would be appropriate without running the risk of hiring unqualified people.
Equally important is to ensure people who have been disadvantaged the chance to become qualified for new opportunities.If aboriginal people (土著居民) , for example, can’t qualify for certain jobs because they haven’t had access to appropriate educational opportunities, then an employment equality program would have to address that problem with training programs.
Employment laws in this country cannot be considered displeasing if they guarantee all Canadians fair and equal access to the workforce.
小题1:The passage is mainly about how to ____.
A.modernize equipment for the disabled at work |
B.achieve equality of employment opportunities |
C.protect women’s rights in employment |
D.complete a job training program |
A.barriers | B.measures | C.goals | D.timetables |
A.only a small percentage of women engineers will get promoted |
B.13% of the working age women should be hired as engineers |
C.policy makers should adopt a practical and flexible approach |
D.the quota of women for employment should be raised |
A.put forward | B.run into | C.find out | D.deal with |
