One day, when I was in high school, I saw a kid named Kyle from my class walking home from school with all his books, I thought to myself, “__26___ would anyone bring home all his books for the weekend? He must really be 27___.”As I was walking, I saw several kids running toward him. They ran at him, 28 all his books out of his arms and he fell down in the dirt, His glasses went 29 and landed in the grass. My 30 went out to him. So, I ran over to him. 31 I handed him his glasses, he looked at me and said, “Hey, thanks!” I helped him pick up his books, and asked him where he lived. As it 32 , he lived near me. We talked all the way home. Over the next four years, Kyle and I became best friends. Kyle was the 33 __student of our class, one of those guys that really found themselves during high school. Therefore he had the 34 to prepare a 35 speech. On the graduation day, I could see that he was 36 .So, I patted him on the back and said, “Hey, big guy, you’ll be 37 !” He looked at me and smiled. He cleared his throat, and began. “Graduation is a time to 38 those who helped you make it through those 39 years. Your parents, your teachers… but mostly your friends, I am here to tell all of you that being a friend to someone is the best 40 you can give him.” I just looked at my friend with 41 as he told the story of the first day we met. He had planned to 42 himself over the weekend and was carrying his books home. “Thankfully, nothing happened. My friend 43 me from doing the unspeakable.” Not until that moment did I realize that you should never underestimate(低估) the 44 of your actions. With one small gesture you can 45 a person’s life. For better or for worse.

Time is very important in our lives. It organizes our everyday moments. However, time never had any importance in my life until I 16 a watch from my father, which organized my life and made me more responsible. It’s round in the center with two silver bands(带) that 17 around my wrist and all of it is made of silver. I received this 18 on a gray – sky day. I had to go to the airport at 9:00 am to 19 up my Uncle Ali and take him to my father’s house. 20 , I was late because I was 21 out with my friends. Later on that day, around 11:00 am, I 22 my uncle, but I was very late for him. He had 23 the airport and taken a taxi to my father’s house. I got to my father’s house at 2:00 pm that day and felt ashamed of myself at that moment. After I said hi to my 24 father and tired uncle, my father asked me to sit next to him and handed me this watch as a gift from him. Then he said, “Peter, did you have 25 with your friends today?” I answered, “Yes, father, and 26 apologized for not meeting my Uncle Ali.” He said, “What you 27 was not very nice and you should be sorry for your action.” I was ashamed and said, “Father, I’ll never do it again . I promise.” He said, “I hope today you learned something important, and this watch will be a 28 for you.” He told me to take this watch and use it as an organizer of my 29 . I learned a very important lesson from my father: to respect time and never to be late to get someone. This watch is 30 to me, not because of its price, but because of the lesson that I learned from it.

I have been consistently opposed to feeding a baby regularly. As a doctor, mother and scientist in child development I believe there is nothing to recommend it, from the baby’s point of view. Mothers, doctors and nurse alike have no idea of where a baby’s blood sugar level lies. All we know is that a low level is harmful to brain development and makes a baby easily annoyed. In this state, the baby is difficult to calm down and sleep is impossible. The baby asks for attention by crying and searching for food with its mouth. It is not just unkind but also dangerous to say a four-hourly feeding schedule will make a baby satisfied. The first of the experts to advocate a strict clock-watching schedule was Dr Frederic Truby King who was against feeding in the night. I’ve never heard anything so ridiculous. Baby feeding shouldn’t follow a timetable set by the mum. What is important is feeding a baby in the best way, though it may cause some inconvenience in the first few weeks. Well, at last we have copper-bottomed research that supports demand feeding and points out the weaknesses of strictly timed feeding. The research finds out that babies who are fed on demand do better at school at age 5, 7, 11 and 14, than babies fed according to the clock. By the age of 8, their IQ (智商)scores are four to five percent higher than babies fed by a rigid timetable. This research comes from Oxford and Essex University using a sample (样本)of 10,419 children born in the early 1990s,taking account of parental education, family income, a child’s sex and age, the mother’s health and feeling style. These results don’t surprise me. Feeling according to schedule runs the risk of harming the rapidly growing brain by taking no account of sinking blood sugar levels. I hope this research will put an end to advocating strictly timed baby feeling practices. 小题1:According to Paragraph 2, one reason why a baby cries is that it feels______.A.sick | B.upset | C.sleepy | D.hungry | 小题2:What does the author think about Dr King?A.He is strict | B.He is unkind | C.He has the wrong idea | D.He sets a timetable for mothers | 小题3:The word copper-bottomed in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to _________.A.basic | B.reliable | C.surprising | D.interesting | 小题4:What does the research tell us about feeling a baby on demand?A.The baby will sleep well | B.The baby will have its brain harmed | C.The baby will have a low blood sugar level | D.The baby will grow to be wiser by the age of 8 | 小题5:The author supports feeling the baby_______.A.in the night | B.every four hours | C.whenever it wants food | D.according to its blood sugar level |

I was blind, but I was ashamed of it if it was known. I refused to use a white stick and hated asking for help. After all, I was a teenager girl, and I couldn’t bear people to look at me and think I was not like them. I must have been a terrible danger on the roads, coming across me wandering through the traffic, motorists probably would have to step rapidly on their brakes. Apart from that, there were all sorts of disasters that used to occur on the way to and from work. One evening, I got off the bus about halfway home where I had to change buses, and as usual I ran into something,“I’m awfully sorry,”I said and stepped forward only to run into it again. When it happened a third time, I realized I had been apologizing to a lamppost. This was just one of the stupid things that constantly happened to me. So I carried on and found the bus stop, which was a request stop, where the bus wouldn’t stop unless passengers wanted to get on or off. No one else was there and I had to try to guess if the bus had arrived. Generally in this situation, because I hated showing I was blind by asking for help, I tried to guess at the sound. Sometimes I would stop a big lorry and stand there feeling stupid as it drew away. In the end, I usually managed to swallow my pride and ask someone at the stop for help. But on this particular evening no one joined me at the stop; It seemed that everyone had suddenly decided not to travel by bus. Of course I heard plenty of buses pass, or I thought I did. But because I had given up stopping them for fear of making a fool of myself, I let them all go by. I stood there alone for half an hour without stopping one. Then I gave up. I decided to walk on to the next stop. 小题1:The girl refused to ask for help because she thought_________.A.she might be recognized | B.asking for help looked silly | C.she was normal and independent | D.being fond blind was embarrassing | 小题2:After the girl got off the bus that evening, she_________.A.began to run | B.hit a person as usual | C.hit a lamppost by accident | D.was caught by something | 小题3:At the request stop that evening, the girl___________.A.stopped a big lorry | B.stopped the wrong bus | C.made no attempt to stop the bus | D.was not noticed by other people | 小题4:What was the problem with guessing at the sound to stop a bus?A.Other vehicles also stopped there. | B.It was unreliable for making judgments. | C.More lorries than buses responded to the girl. | D.It took too much time for the girl to catch the bus. | 小题5:Finally the girl decided to walk to the next stop, hoping__________. A.to find people there | B.to find more buses there | C.to find the bus by herself there | D.to find people more helpful there |

Education from My Father My memories of my father are slim because he was so sick in the last years of his life. But there are 32 that I am often reminded of and which may have had some bearing on my love of 33 . When I was small I was somewhat 34 of lightning and thunder. My father explained it. The explanation was in 35 that a child could understand but was basically correct. I gained a better 36 later, but I didn’t have to unlearn anything. What he said was that there was electricity in the clouds 37 it traveled to the ground like a spark. When it traveled 38 the air it made the air so hot that it 39 . Then there was nothing where the air had been and the air all around rushed in to 40 the space. He clapped his hands together very loud, 41 to be the air rushing in, and said that makes the thunder. When I hear thunder, I can still hear that 42 . He explained why if it was cloudy in the winter the night was warmer than if it was 43 . It was one of those nights when the sky was full of stars: no moon, no town lights. But there were more stars than you could 44 and they had color too. He said that if there were no clouds, we had no blankets and were 45 to the universe. Our warmth was going to 46 the whole universe. When there were clouds, they were like blankets and we were not exposed to the universe. I 47 feel on the edge of space on a very clear night. I am sure there were many other lessons that I 48 but no longer remember. What I did 49 , in general, was that there were explanations and that the more I understood them, the more comfortable the world was to live in. I was not taught that there were 50 but that there was understanding if you looked for it. This may be why I have always been 51 in science.

How many times have you gotten upset because someone wasn’t doing their job, because your child isn’t behaving?How many times have you been annoyed when you’ve planned something carefully and things didn’t go as you’d hoped? This kind of anger and irritation happens to all of us — it’s part of the human experience. One thing that annoys me is when people talk during a movie. Or cut me off in traffic. Actually, I have a lot of these little annoyances — don’t we all? And it isn’t always easy to find peace when you’ve become upset or annoyed. Let me tell you a little secret to finding peace of mind: see the glass as already broken. See, the cause of our stress, anger and irritation is that things don’t go the way we like, the way we expect them to. Think of how many times this has been true for you. And so the solution is simple: expect things to go wrong, expect things to be different than we hoped or planned, expect the unexpected to happen. And accept it. One quick example: on our recent trip to Japan, I told my kids to expect things to go wrong — they always do on a trip. I told them, “See it as part of the adventure.” And this worked like a charm. When we took the wrong train on a foreign-language subway system, or when it rained on the day we went to Disney Sea, or when we took three trains and walked 10 blocks only to find the National Children’s Castle closed on Mondays … they said, “It’s part of the adventure!” And it was all OK — we didn’t get too bothered. So when the nice glass you bought inevitably falls and breaks, someday, you might get upset. But not if you see the glass as already broken, from the day you get it. You know it’ll break someday, so from the beginning, see it as already broken. Be a time-traveler, or someone with time-traveling vision, and see the future of this glass, from this moment until it inevitably breaks. And when it breaks, you won’t be upset or sad — because it was already broken, from the day you got it. And you’ll realize that every moment you have with it is precious. 小题1:The author would probably agree that________.A.we should control our anger and irritation | B.we must get well prepared for the future | C.optimism can help us overcome our anger and irritation | D.anger and irritation is an important part of our life | 小题2:The purpose of the author is to ___________.A.tell us his own experience in life | B.give advice on how to find peace of mind | C.tell us a happy trip took with his children | D.advise us to see things from both sides | 小题3:By the underlined part, the author intends us to _____________.A.get ready for the worst result of things | B.enjoy the process of things | C.expect little from life | D.find the relation between cause and effect | 小题4:The author’s children could enjoy their trip to Japan because _____________.A.everything went smoothly | B.they had a lot of adventures | C.they had expected things to go wrong | D.they could soon get used to the customs there | 小题5:We can learn from the passage that the author ____________.A.often gets angry in his life | B.can adjust his state of mind accordingly | C.always expects others to act in his way | D.has suffered a lot from his anger and irritation |
