However, to get time for lunch was really difficult be-cause he didn’t have anybody to help him at that time. Therefore, it was his daily practice that whichever customer was shopping at 1:00 p.m. would be asked to oversee (看管) the shop until the shopkeeper returned from lunch.
One day, a group of four thieves planned to steal from his shop while he was gone for lunch. One of the thieves went at 1:00 p.m. to be the customer that would be asked to oversee the shop.
The thief, pretending to be a customer, went in at 1:00 p.m. and started buying several items. As planned, the shop-keeper asked the thief to sit on his chair for thirty minutes until he returned from lunch.
Then, the other three thieves quickly came and told the pretend customer to help, but something had changed within him and he knew deeply in his heart that if he was given responsibility for the shop, he should not perform any dishonest acts during that time. His friends did not agree. As the now honest man tried to stop them, they resisted (抵抗) and a fight started. And at the same time the shopkeeper returned and asked why there was a fighting. The now honest man explained the entire plan.
The shopkeeper had been searching for an honest man who could take ownership of the shop and run it. The shop-keeper felt that he had found the right man.

In those days the sun seemed to shine always 29 and the water was always warm. Sometimes we left beach and walked in the country, 30 ruined houses and dark woods and climbing trees. There were sweets in one’s pockets or good places where one could 31 ice creams. Each day seemed a life-time.
32 I am now thirty-five years old, my idea of a good holiday is much the same as it was. I 33 like the sun and warm sand and the sound of 34 beating (拍打) the rocks. I no longer wish to 35 any sand house or sand garden, and I dislike sweets. 36 , I still love the sea and often feel sand running through my fingers.
Sometimes I 37 what my ideal(理想的) holiday will be like when I am old . 38 I want to do then, perhaps, will be to lie in bed, reading books about 39 who make houses and gardens with sands, who watch the incoming tide, who make themselves 40 on too many ices creams.

My heart felt as 41 as the falling snow. 42 can I stop missing my mother?
I 43 the window. Seeing Rebecca’s car parked out front, I went back to my bed and drew the covers over my head.
“Lucy!” she shouted. “I know you’re in there. Answer the door!”
“Leave me alone!” I 44 back. I heard paper rustling(沙沙作响) as she slid 45 under the door.
“Merry Christmas, ” she called out.
Not answering the 46 made me even 47. It wasn’t fair to my best friend. Her father and sister 48 in a car accident when she was eight years old. 49 , her mother had to return to 50 , and Rebecca was left to look after herself.
When she left, I carried the small package, sat down and 51 it. Inside was a golden pen and a journal. When I opened the journal’s front cover, out fell a bookmark with a(n) 52 written on it:
Dear Lucy,
My words won’t heal(治愈)the 53 . But your own words can.
Love,

As I stared at the journal’s blank pages, a single tear fell on the page which quickly absorbed it.
That night, I 54 the phone and dialed her number.

Social scientists are, of course, extremely interested in these types of questions.They want to explain why we possess certain characteristics and exhibit certain behaviors.There are no clear answers yet, but two distinct schools of thought (学派)on the matter have developed.As one might expect, the two approaches are very different from one another, and there is a great deal of debate between proponents of each theory.The controversy(argument) is often referred to as “nature and nurture(教育)”.
Those who support the “nature” side of the conflict believe that our personalities and behavior patterns are largely determined by biological and genetic factors.That our environment has little, if anything, to do with our abilities, characteristics, and behavior is central to this theory.Taken to an extreme(走极端), this theory maintains that our behavior is predetermined to such a degree that we are almost completely governed by our instincts(本能).
Proponents of the “nurture” theory, or, as they are often called, behaviorists, claimed that our environment is more important than our biologically based instincts in determining how we will act.A behaviorist, B.F.Skinner, sees humans as beings whose behavior is almost completely shaped by their surroundings.The behaviorists’ view of the human being is quite mechanistic(机械论的); they maintain that, like machines, humans’ respond to environmental stimuli(刺激) as the basis of their behavior.
Socially and politically, the consequences of these two theories are far-reaching.In the US, for example, blacks often score below whites on standardized intelligence tests.This leads some proponents to conclude that blacks are genetically lower in status than whites.Behaviorists, on the contrary, say that the differences in scores are due to the fact that blacks are often robbed of many of the educational and other environmental advantages that whites enjoy, and that, as a result, they do not develop the same responses that whites do.
Either of these theories cannot yet fully explain human behavior.In fact, it is quite likely that the key to our behavior lies somewhere between these two extremes. That the controversy will continue for a long time is certain.
小题1:This passage is mainly concerned with .
A.relation between personality and behavior |
B.relation between behavior and environment |
C.different accounts of patterns of human behavior |
D.different theories of the formation of human behavior |
A.creators | B.advisors |
C.supporters | D.judges |
A.the considerable(值得考虑的) influence of the two theories |
B.differences between the blacks and whites |
C.racial discrimination in the United States |
D.different responds to intelligence tests |
A.To call our attention to the changes of human behavior. |
B.To urge scientists to do more research in social science. |
C.To give us a detailed explanation of human behavior. |
D.To present an argument in the field of social science. |
That got me thinking about what a hero is. Was I a hero because I pulled a family from a burning car? If so, how could I be a hero just because I wrote a story that saved someone’s life?
Today I looked up the word “hero” in the dictionary to see exactly what it meant. It read “a person who does something brave” and also “a person who is good and noble”.
That statement impressed me more than the part about being brave. So I thought about something very important. And I remembered what happened to me years ago.
After my marriage of twenty years ended, I was in such a condition. I was within hours trying to get up enough courage to end the pain and misery. When I returned home, someone had sent me a card in the mail which told me how much they would appreciate me as a friend. That wonderful card probably saved my life. That person, without even knowing it, saved a life and became a hero.
The many stories I kept writing in the following years saved the life of a teenage boy. In turn that makes the person who sent me the card a double hero. I suppose that is why I fight so hard to help the children now living in orphanages (孤儿院). Most children come out of these institutions with a very hard and bitter attitude against the world. The gifts we send them let them know that they have not been forgotten. Hopefully, most of them will never hurt anyone because of the kindness shown to them by those of us who cared. If it works, we will also become "heroes".
小题1:The main idea of the passage is _______________.
A.why the writer should be a hero |
B.whether the writer is a hero |
C.what a hero exactly is |
D.that everyone is a hero |
A.Because he was cute and kind to everybody |
B.Because he saved a family from a burning car. |
C.Because he asked her son not to kill himself. |
D.Because his story saved her son’s life. |
A.The wonderful card the writer received. |
B.The action of sending the card. |
C.The fact that the sender helped the writer. |
D.The fact that the sender was a friend of the writer. |
A.A person who helps someone in trouble. |
B.A person who writes wonderful stories. |
C.A person who can hold a door for others. |
D.A person who is brave. |
