    This morning, I went camping along a path in Green Natural Park with my friends. We were happy because it was a sunny day. We were expecting an enjoyable two-day holiday. On the way, we kept singing and making jokes.
    However, in the afternoon, when we finished our picnic at one o’clock, it was dark and windy. Soon, there was a shower. Unluckily, none of us brought an umbrella. We ran about but we could find no place to hide.
    Twenty minutes passed and it was still raining. There were hours to go before we reached the campsite (野营地). It was even worse that our small compass (指南针) showed that we went to the wrong way. We had lost our way!
    We had to make a quick decision as it was raining heavily. Chris said we could set up a tent to hide in, so Mary and Tom helped to set up the tent. Chris and I tried to make a fire to keep us warm. But we were unable to light the fire, as everything was wet. We dried ourselves, chatted and waited inside the tent. At about five o’clock, it stopped raining. We decided to give up the camping trip because all of us had been very tired.
    This camping trip may not be very successful but we know each other better. And the most important thing I’ve learned from this trip is the importance of team spirit.

    I was being interviewed by a senior manager for a major insurance(保险业)company. I told him honestly why I wanted the job —I needed to keep my family in Boston. My wife recently died of a heart attack. A job in Boston would help me reduce some of the extreme trauma(精神创伤) and pain of the loss for my 16-year-old daughter. It was important for me to keep her in her present high school. I could still hardly talk about the loss of my wife. Bruce, the interviewer, was politely empathetic, but he didn’t probe(彻底调查) any further. He admitted (接受)my loss and, with great respect, moved on to another subject. After the next round of the interview, Bruce took me to lunch with another manager. Then he asked me to take a walk with him. He told me that he, too, had lost his wife. And, like me, he had also been married 20 years and had three children. In his sharing, I realized that he had experienced the same pain as I had —a pain that was almost impossible to explain to someone who had not lost a beloved one. He offered his business card and home phone number and suggested that, if I need help or just want someone to talk to, I should feel free to give him a call. Whether I got the job or not, he wanted me to know that he was there if I ever needed help. When he had no idea if we would ever see each other again, he helped our family deal with one of the greatest losses. He turned the normally cold business interview into a caring support for another person in need.
    小题1:The author took part in the interview because _______.
    A．he had lost his job and wanted to find a new one
    B．he had to support his family in Boston
    C．his wife had recently died of a heart attack

    小题2: The underlined word "empathetic “in the second paragraph means _____.
    A．kindB．easy-goingC．smartD．understanding

    A．Bruce invited the author to lunch later.
    B．Bruce shared his life experience with the author.
    C．Bruce was willing to help the author.
    D．Bruce finally gave the job to the author.
    小题4: We can infer from the last paragraph that ________.
    A．Bruce and the author saw each other often
    B．the author got little help from Bruce
    C．the author learned much from the job interview
    D．the author had a better life afterwards

    For as long as I can remember, Grandma’s plentiful tomato garden has been a sign of summer’s end. Each September, just as the decreased heat of the sun suggests cooler days, Grandma requests (ask for something) my help in her tomato garden. I’m sure that she cannot pick tomatoes without my youthful eyes and quick mind. She says we need to examine each tomato and agree on its readiness for picking. While Grandma’s request for my help in the tomato garden is always the same, her desire for my help seems to increase each year.
    　　Grandma has eyes for finding even the tomatoes hidden by undergrowth and other tomatoes. I, however, just turn circles looking for the ones I think Grandma will like. I spot what looks like a ripe（成熟的）tomato, head in its direction, and then get sidetracked by another that appears to be equally ripe. I usually end up watching Grandma and trying to stay out of her way, which seems the only way my eyes and mind are useful.
    　　There we are, lost in the tomato vines（藤）. Grandma’s eyes are always knowing, and they are no different in the vegetable garden. From afar she spots (notice) what looks like a ripe tomato. As she walks toward the garden, she evaluates the tomato for a second time, but from a different angle. I already know it will end up in the basket with the pile of others Grandma has carefully chosen. However, Grandma acts as if she needs a final look to be sure. She calls me to her side, kneels beside the vine while enjoying the warmth of the fading sunlight on her face, and grasps the tomato in her hand. She turns each round, red ball toward the sunlight before disconnecting it from the vine with a half-hearted smile.
    　　She then looks at me. I nod my head and smile. Grandma assumes I smile in agreement with her tomato selection. I know I smile, instead, at her.
    小题1: Why does Grandma ask the author to go to the tomato garden with her?
    A．He can help pick more tomatoes.
    B．He can learn the hardship of labor.
    C．She enjoys staying with him while working.
    D．She tries to share tomato harvest with him.
    小题2:The second paragraph shows that the writer _________.
    A．isn’t good at picking tomatoes
    B．doesn’t like to stay with Grandma
    C．thinks his eyes and mind are useful
    D．is trying to be out of Grandma’s sight
    小题3: What’s the best title of the story?
    A．Gardening—good for my Grandma.
    B．Growing Grandma.
    C．Gardening—good for my growth.
    D．Picking tomatoes.

    Think of life as a game in which you are playing with five balls in the air. You name them work, family, health, friends and spirit (精神) and you keep all of them in the air. You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will jump back.
    But the other four balls, family, health, friends and spirit are made of glass. If you drop one of these, they will be broken. They will never be the same. You must understand that and try to have the balance in your life. How?
    Don’t look down on your worth by comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different and each of us is special.
    Don’t let other people set goals for you. Only you know what is best for yourself.
    Don’t give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.
    Don’t be afraid of difficulties. We learn how to be brave by taking chances.
    Don’t shut love out of your life by saying it’s impossible. The quickest way to receive love is to give it; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly (紧紧地); the best way to keep love is to give it wings.
    Don’t run through life so fast that you forget not only where you’ve been, but also where you are going.
    Don’t be afraid to learn. Knowledge is a treasure (珍宝) you can always carry easily.
    Don’t use time or words carelessly. You can’t get them back. Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery (秘密), and today is a gift; that’s why we call it “the present”. Life is not a competition, but a trip, step by step.
    小题1:The passage tells us not to _________ because everyone is special.
    A．be afraid of difficulties
    B．be afraid to learn
    C．run through life so fast
    D．compare yourself with others to look down on your worth
    小题2:The sentence “Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.” means that_____.
    A．Nothing is possible
    B．If we don’t give up, there is always hope
    C．You should learn to give up
    D．Although you try, nothing will change.
    小题3:Why can’t we use time carelessly? ___________
    A．Because time is too expensive
    B．Because time never returns.
    C．Because we are too poor
    D．Because times will get back.
    小题4:According to the passage, which is the best title? ___________
    A．Nothing is impossible.
    B．Glass balls are easy to be broken.
    C．Things you can’t do.
    D．Treat your life in a right way.

    My life suffered a lot in a summer five years ago. My father died in a car accident, leaving my mother, my two younger brothers and I alone. At that time, I was a senior high school student. After my father’s funeral (葬礼), I had no choice but to drop out of school and work in a factory.
    I really wanted to return to school and wanted to go to college, but I couldn’t. I only hoped to bring up my two younger brothers. Life was not easy for me, for I can’t afford their tuition (学费) even if I worked from day to night without stopping. Without my father’s protection, I thought I was a slave (奴隶) to the fate.
    Later on, something changed my life. I still remember that it was a rainy day. I put myself in the rain and walked slowly in the street.
    Suddenly the rain stopped! I raised my head and found “the sky” was in fact a dark blue umbrella. Then I noticed a middle-aged man with one leg on crutch (拐杖) standing behind me. He said to me, “Why not run without an umbrella? If you didn’t run, you would get drenched.”
    The man told me that he was promoter (推销员). He once dreamed of being a policeman, but an accident ruined (毁灭) his dream. Though his present job was not suitable for his legs, it was wonderful start to him. He was very happy that he didn’t lose heart and still “ran” on the road of life…
    I was encouraged by the man’s words. I went to a big city and I became an assurance representative (保险代理人). After two years’ running, I did well and my family condition turned better little by little. Later I returned to school and succeeded in my entrance to university.
    Life is like this. When you are in rainy days in your life, if you couldn’t find a way to prevent you from being wet, you would be overwhelmed (被制服). But if you decide to get rid of it, you’ll discover that the rainy days last not so long as you imagine.
