Far from a Family Christmas
My Air Force room in Florida was 36 and quiet—I was alone.My five roommates were gone for the holidays; I had chosen to 37 behind in the camp.Being young and far from my home, I felt 38 .My room was comfortable enough, 39 I hadn’t realized until then what made it so—the 40 of others walking, joking or just lying on their beds.
I was not able to sleep.I was 41 of being on my own—in fact, preferred it at times—but tonight was 42 .Tossing and turning in the darkened room gave no 43 .The last sign of daylight had disappeared, 44 my inner depression. 45 , the glow of Christmas lights on the tall pines would only 46 me of my great misery.
Suddenly, I heard weak sound of men 47 to sing.Yes, the voices grew louder and came my way.I 48 still, enjoying the sound.
In the corridor(通道,走廊) 49 my room, voices came near enough for me to hear Christmas carols(颂歌) being 50 .Suddenly, there, four airmen, identities unknown, were slightly unsteadied by holiday 51 .The first held a Coke bottle with a lit candle 52 its top.The others formed a dancing line behind him.
53 I was in the room, with joyful faces in the flickering(摇曳的) light, they sang me several carols, wished me a 54 and left as fast as they had arrived.
I slept soundly soon after, burying my face in my pillow, 55 that someone had cared.

My father looked surprised. Before the boy could say anything, his mother grabbed his arm and shook it. “Is it true? You stole? Tell me!”
Everyone was quiet. The boy began to cry, and he nodded his head. He pulled out the comic book (漫画书) from under his shirt.
“Oh, Mr. Kim. I am sorry! My Ted made a big mistake!” Mrs. Diaz told my father. She tried to take the comic book, but Ted wouldn’t let go.
“It’s OK. He can keep it,” my father said with a smile.
“Oh no,” Mrs. Diaz said. “Let me pay right now ...” She dug in her purse. “How much?”
“Three seventy-five.”
Mrs. Diaz’s eyes widened, and she dug deeper. I saw her mouth make a small line. “Three seventy-five?” she asked.
“It’s OK. You can pay later,” my father said.
“No,” Mrs. Diaz said. She kept looking in her purse. “I have money here.”
I felt bad for yelling, for I realized that Ted had tried to steal the comic book because he didn’t have the money. Maybe the boy could have a job, I thought.
I had an idea.
“What if he worked with me?” I asked. They turned to me.
I said, “He can work with me to pay for the comic book.”
“Good,” my father said smiling at me. Mrs. Diaz nodded. She turned to her son, “You hear? You will work and buy the comic book!”
“Yes, Mama,” Ted said, hanging his head.
As they left, Ted looked back, and though he still seemed sad, he stuck out (伸出) his tongue at me.
Ted has been working here for two weeks. He has paid for the comic book, but my father says he is such a good worker that he can work with me as long as he wants. We are friends now.

Another problem is of course money, In many countries money for training is available from government for the very best young sportsmen and sportswomen.If this help can not be given, it means that it is the parents who have to find the time and the money to support their child’s development and sports clothes, transport to competitions, special equipment, etc.All can be expensive.
Many parents are worried that it is dangerous to start serious training in a sport at an early age.Some doctors agree that young muscles may be damaged by training before they are properly developed.Professional trainers, however, believe that it is only by training when young that you can reach the top as successful sports person.It is clear that very few people do reach the top, and both parents and children should be prepared for failure even after many years of training.

A.to become less important |

C.To happen again |

A.It’s easy to make a decision when your children want to take up sports. |
B.Most of the students may become top sports men after a long period of training. |
C.Early training may damage young muscles. |
D.It’s not very expensive for parents to support their children’s development in sports. |
Some packages suggest that a buyer will get something for nothing.Food products sold in reusable containers are examples of this.Although a similar product in a plain container might cost less, people often prefer to buy the product in a reusable glass or dish, because they believe the container is free.However, the cost of the container is added to the cost of the product.The size of a package also motivates a buyer.Maybe the package had “Economy Size” or “Family Size” printed on it.This suggests that the larger size has the most product for the least money.But that is not always true.To find it out, a buyer has to know how the product is sold and the price of the basic unit.
The information on the package should provide some answers.But the important thing for any buyer to remember is that a package is often an advertisement.The words and pictures do not tell the whole story.Only the product inside can do that.
小题1:From the passage we know the buyer pays more attention to __________.
A.the size of a container |
B.a container with attractive picture |
C.a well-designed container |
D.a plain container with low cost |
A.It’s not good to buy the product which is sold in a glass or dish. |
B.The quality of a container has nothing to do with the quality of the product. |
C.The best choice for a buyer is to buy a product in a plain package. |
D.A buyer should buy what he needs most rather than a well-designed package. |
A.How to Package a Product. |
B.How to Make an Advertisement. |
C.How to Sell Product. |
D.How to Treat the Package Wisely. |
Successful and happy people have a vision of how their life should be and they set lots of goals(both short-term and long-range)to help them reach their vision.By setting goals you are taking control of your life.It’s like having a map to show you where you want to go.Think of it in this way.There are two drivers.One has a destination in mind(her goal) which is laid out for her on a map.She can drive straight there without any wasted time or wrong turns.The other driver has no goal or destination or map.She starts off at the same time from the same place as the first driver.But she drivers aimlessly around, never getting anywhere , just using up gas and oil.Which driver do you want to be?
Winners in life set goals and follow through on them.They decide what they want in life and then get there by making plans and setting goals.Unsuccessful people just let life happen by accident.Goals aren’t difficult to set, and they aren’t difficult to reach.It’s up to you to find out what your goals,ideals and visions really are.You are the one who must decide what to pursue and in what direction to aim your life.
Research tells us that when we write a goal down we are more likely to achieve it.Written goals can be reviewed regularly, and have more power.Like a contract (合同) with yourself, they are harder to neglect or forget.
Also when you write your goals in a particular way you are able to make yourself continuously aware of situations that will bring you nearer to your goals.
小题1:The author gave the example of two drivers to show_______.
A.the foolishness of the first driver |
B.the importance of having a map and right direction |
C.the foolishness of the second driver |
D.the importance of setting goals |
A.try to be realistic about one"s ability |
B.have a clear understanding of what he or she wants in life |
C.let others understand him or her first, then work together with them |
D.let others help him or her to make his or her dream come true |
A.write down their goals |
B.sign a contract with other people |
C.face the difficulties in front of them |
D.discuss with others and ask for their help |
A.study hard | B.have a goal and achieve it |
C.live happily | D.sleep well |
