Mary said, “Oh, well, it isn’t our fire, let’s go home.”
But John 23 closer and screamed, “That home belongs to Fred Jones who works at the plant. He wouldn’t be 24 works yet, maybe there is something we could do. ” “It has nothing to do with us”, Mary 25 .
But John drove up and stopped and they were both horror-stricken to see the whole house in 26 . A woman on the lawn was screaming, “The children! Get the children!” John 27 her by the shoulder saying, “Get a hold of yourself and tell us where the children are!” “In the 28 ,” cried the woman, “down the hall and to the left. ”
In spite of Mary’s disagreement John 29 for the basement which was full of smoke and 30 hot. He found the door and two children. 31 he left he could hear some more sobbing(哭泣). He 32 the two badly frightened children into 33 arms and started back asking how many more children were down there. They told him 34 more and Mary grasped his arm and screamed, “John! Don’t go back!

36 he ran into the smoke-filled hallway and at last he found both children.

小题36:D
小题37:B
小题38:C
小题39:B
小题40:A
解析
小题21:D 由下文They found a home in flames.可推断出此处应为 fire
小题22:A 由下文“That home belongs to Fred Jones who works at the plant.”可知失火的是Fred Jones的家,故此处填home
小题23:C 根据上下文反复提到John和Mary驾驶着汽车,故选项为C
小题24:B John说,那是Fred Jones的家,又说或许他们能做点什么,即提供帮助(救火)。中间这句应该是说Fred Jones 这个时间不会在家,所以应该是be off works(还没下班)。
小题25:C A和B项不符合语境,显然Mary的态度很激烈,要John不要管闲事,所以要用require。而disagree一般用于某人不同意或反对某时或某事,用在此处不合适
小题26:C 根据语境来看,房子正在燃烧,因此此处要用flames
小题27:B 情况危急,John抓住woman的肩膀,因此要用seize her by the shoulder,而不可能是推,故不选push
小题28:A 下文讲到John冲进地下室,故A正确
小题29:D 情况紧急,John冲入地下室,故选rushed
小题30:D terribly此处意为“极度地、非常地、骇人地”,房子因失火而热浪滚滚,极其热,热得吓人;而heavily一般用于猛烈地、大量地、严重地,搭配不合适
小题31:B 当他带着两个孩子离开的时候,听到还有哭声,因此用as
小题32:B John把孩子救出,递到外面等候的人手中,故选delivered
小题33:C 参看第32小题解析
小题34:D 根据下文,他终于把两个孩子都找到了,关键词语是both,故此处应为two
小题35:A Mary要他不要再回去了,因为房子马上就要倒塌了,所以此处应为dangerous
小题36:D 此句说虽然Mary劝阻,但John还是冲进浓烟弥漫的走廊,故选but
小题37:B John在地下室找到两个孩子,浓烟中带着他们,行动艰难,危急时刻,人也会感觉时间过得很慢,因此应该是“总也走不到头的楼梯”故选B项
小题38:C 虽然在浓烟中看不清,他也并没想到会是自己的孩子,所以虽感觉熟悉,却也很奇怪,故说strangely familiar
小题39:B 带着孩子冲出烈焰浓烟,在阳光下他看清了的确是自己的两个爱子
小题40:A rescue救;found,找到;lost,失去;missed,失去, A 符合语境

Two weeks later she went into my office beaming. She had left her bed unmade for the first time in 42 years-and nothing bad had happened. “And you know what?” she said. “I don’t dry my dishes anymore, either.”
This woman had made two major breakthroughs (突破). One was discovering that she had choices in her life that she had never seen before. The other was giving herself permission to be less that perfect. This story shows an important principle (原理) about managing time: No one can do it all. Each of us has to make choices and accept trade – offs. The problem is, many people choose in ways that put themselves and their health last. They take better care of their houses and cars than they do of themselves. They put everyone else’s needs ahead of their own.
So what is the solution? There’s an easy way. Decide what you want in your life, and put that first. On a daily basis, that should include regular meals, enough sleep and time with your family. Exercise, leisure, friendships and hobbies should also be regular aspects of life. The point is to do something for yourself every day. The choice is yours: whatever makes you feel good about yourself and your life. Take a nap. Take a walk. Take time to play the piano. Stop bringing your briefcase home from the office. Stop keeping your house as clean as your mother kept hers. Fill more of your time with want – to – dos instead of have – to – dos.
小题1:What is the solution to the problem of managing time?
A.Doing more exercises every day. | B.Taking time to visit friends regularly. |
C.Stopping making bed occasionally. | D.Doing what you want to do first. |
A.Worrying | B.Smiling | C.Depressed | D.Luckily |
A.Most people do not take care of their health. |
B.Most people put others’ needs ahead of their own. |
C.Most people cannot keep balance on managing time. |
D.Most people do not take time to relax themselves. |
A.Matter – of – fact. | B.Negative. | C.Indifferent. | D.Worried. |

October 10th
Dear Rosemary,
I was very glad to get your letter this morning. I really ought to have written to you---it was my turn, I know----but I have been terribly busy. The children seem to take up all my time. I am thinking of sending Ann to a nursery school. She’ll be four next month. Baby has just started to walk and doesn’t give me a moment’s peace. But you know what it is like! How are all your children? I’m sure they love living in the country.
I’m afraid we can’t come over to see you next Sunday, as you suggest. Tom’s mother is coming to spend the day with us. What about the Sunday after that----- the twenty-second? We are free that day and should love to come. We’re longing to see your house.
Let me know, then, if the Sunday after next suits you. May we come for lunch? We’d like to leave fairly early in the evening to avoid the heavy traffic on the roads.
Love from us all,
Edna

Make a point: Keep your speech short and brief and have a few clear points that you need to convey(传达).
Practice: Never learn your speech by heart as your speech will become stilted, but do practice it a few times in front of the mirror, your parents or your dog.

The youngster immediately fell silent as tears welled up in his big blue eyes.Apologicaliy the father said, "You can finish later."
The boy said nothing but quietly walked away, disappointment written over his face.That evening the father said, "Come and finish the kisses now, Andrew!" But the boy didn"t respond.
Unfortunately, a few days later after this incident, the boy had an accident and was drowned.His heartbroken father wrote...
"If only I could tell him how much I regret my thoughtless words, and could be sure that he knows how much my heart is aching."
Love is not only giving.Any loving act must be warmly accepted or it will be taken as rejection and can leave a scar.If we are too busy to give and receive love, we are too busy!
