     A group of class friends successful in their careers got together to visit their old university professor. Their talk soon turned into complaints about  stress in work and life.
         Offering his guests coffee, the professor went to the kitchen and returned with a large pot of coffee and a couple of(几个) cups  —porcelain(瓷的),  plastic(塑料的),  glass,  crystal(水晶的),  some common,   some  expensive and some delicate (精美的)--telling them to help __________ ( 1 )to the coffee.
         When all the students had a cup of coffee in hand, the professor said, "If you noticed,all the nice-looking expensive cups were taken up, leaving behind the common and  _________(1 )  ones. While it is  natural  for you to choose only the best for ourselves, that is the cause  of your problems and stress. The cup itself  adds  no quality to the coffee.  What all of you really wanted was coffee, not the cup, but you consciously (有意识地) went  for   the best cups.( 2 ) And then you began eyeing other people’s cups. Now consider this: life is the   coffee ; the jobs, money and position in society are the cups. They are just tools to hold and contain life, and the type of cup which we have will not change the quality of life we live. Sometimes, by fixing our attention only on the cup, we  fail to enjoy the coffee which God (上帝) has provided for us. God brews(冲泡) the coffee, not the cups...Enjoy your coffee!"
       Live simply . Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly. Leave the rest to God.

    87. 在(1)处横线上填入适当的单词使上下文通顺。____________    ________. (每空一词)

    W: No, but Jeff can.                              

    7. M: Would you like me to open the door for you?

    W: That's very kind of you. My hands are hurt.         

    8. W: It's sunny and warm now, but the TV says that it'll get cold and windy in the afternoon.

    M: I hope not. I've got our sports meeting in the playground. 

    9. W: Excuse me, I’d like to buy a detective story. Could you show me one?

    M: Yes. This one is the most popular, I think.    

    10. M: May I have your telephone number, please?

    W: Certainly. It's 8-2-5-5 double 2-9.

It was 【小题13】that I had to teach them on Saturday afternoon 【小题14】most of my friends would be 【小题15】themselves at that time.
    Before I had time to ask about my salary(薪水), he got up to his feet. “Now,” he said. “You’d better meet my wife. She is the one who really runs this school.”

    Red is used in many American expressions. It can be used to show happiness, as in the expression “a red-letter day”. This is a day when something special happens. The expression is probably based on church customs. For almost 600 years, church calendars have been marked with red to show special holy(神圣的)days. Today’s calendars are still marked that way with the dates of holidays and special days printed in red.

    The expression “a red-letter day”is often heard in daily life. “A red-letter day” is a day that people are especially happy. It may be a day that you have waited for a long time, a wedding day, for example. Or it may be a day with a happy surprise. You might tell a friend that yesterday was a red-letter day, because you won some money in the lottery.

    “Rolling out the red carpet” is another commonly heard expression. It describes an especially warm welcome of any kind. A city may “roll out the carpet ”for its baseball team, when the team arrives home after winning a championship. A group of supporters go to the air port to the greet the team. The red-carpet welcome includes a lot of cheering by thousands of fans, a parade, music and speech of praise by local statesmen.

    Red is also used in some expressions that are not happy. “Red-handed ” is an example. To be caught “red-handed” is to be found in an act of wrong doing. The evidence is clear. You are guilty. Today we use the expression “ to be caught red-handed ”in situation(情况)that are not serious. For example, a mother might say she caught her son red-handed, taking cookies out of the cookie jar.

    It was the last day of the final examination(考试)in a college. On the steps of building, a group of engineering students were waiting for the last exam. On their faces was confidence(自信).

    They knew the exam would be easy. The professor(教授) had said they could bring any books or notes during the test.

    Right after they came into the classroom. The professor handed out the papers. There were only five questions on it.

    Three hours passed. Then the professor began to collect the papers. The students no longer looked confident. On their faces was nervous expression. The professor watched the worried faces before him, and then asked. “How many of you have completed all five questions?” No hand was raised. “How many of you have answered four?” Still no hands. “Three? Two?” The students moved restlessly in their seats. “One, then? Certainly somebody has finished one.” But the class kept silent(沉默). The professor said, “That is exactly what I expected(期盼). I just want to make you know clearly that even though you have completed four years of engineering, there are still many things about the subject you don’t know. These questions you could not answer are common in everyday practice.” Then, smiling, he added, “You will all pass this course, your education has just begun.”

    The years have obscured the name of this professor, but not the lesson he taught.

    1.Why did the students think the exam was easy at first?

    A．Because it was their last exam in the college.

    B．Because they knew there were only five questions.

    C．Because they thought they were clever and talented.

    D．Because they were allowed to bring any books and notes during the test.

    2.How many students have finished all the five questions?

    A．All of them.

    B．Some of them.

    C．None of them .

    D．Only one of them.

    3.What does the underlined word “obscured” mean in the last paragraph?

    A．模糊

    B．回忆

    C．提醒

    D．改变

    4.What could the students learn from the last exam?

    A．He laughs best who laughs last.

    B．A good beginning is half done.

    C．One is never too old to learn.

    D．The early bird catches the worm.
