Part two: Cloze (20 items, 20 pts.)

School was over and I was both mentally and physically tired. I sat at the very front of the bus because of my   16  to get home. Sitting at the front makes you  17  out like a shiny coin in a pile of dull pennies.

Janie, the driver, tries to break the  18  atmosphere by striking the match of   19 .

I try to mind my manners and   20  listen, but usually I am too busy thinking about my day. On this day,   21  , her conversation was worth listening to.

“My father's sick,” she said to no one in  22  . I could see the anxiety and fear in her eyes. With a sudden change of attitude and interest, I asked,“What's wrong with him?"

With her eyes wet and her voice tight from  23  the tears, she responded,“Heart trouble.”Her eyes lowered as she  24  . “I've already lost my mum, so I don't think I can stand losing him.”

I couldn't respond. I was  25  . My heart ached for her. I sat on the old, smelly seat thinking of the great  26  my own mother was thrown into when her father died. I saw how hard it was,   27  still is, for her. I wouldn't like anyone to go  28  that.

Suddenly I realized Janie wasn't only a bus driver. That was  29  her job. She had a whole world of family and concerns too. I had never thought of her as  30  but a driver.

I suddenly felt very  31  . I realized I had only thought of people as  32  as what their purposes were in my life. I paid no attention to Janie because she was a bus driver. I had judged her by her job and brushed her off as  33  .

For all I know, I'm just another person in  34  else's world, and may not even be important. I  35  not have been so selfish and self-centered. Everyone has places to go, people to see and appointments to keep. Understanding people is an art.

Despite being tall, Michelle Obama is much smaller than she appears on television. And she seemed a little short by her surroundings in the great hall of Christchurch College as she spoke quietly without a microphone because of a technical mistake. Her audience were 40 young girls from a London state school where 50 languages are spoken.
“I remember how well-meaning but misguided people questioned whether someone with my background could succeed at an elite (精英) university,” she said. “When I was accepted, I had all kinds of worries and doubts. I wouldn’t be as well prepared as students from privileged families and I wouldn’t fit in. But you are just as capable and have just as much to offer as anyone else.”
This was Mrs. Obama’s only solo outing during the state visit and part two of an unusual relationship which she has struck up with Anderson College in Islington. Two years ago on her first visit to the UK she visited the school.
Yesterday she returned to meet the pupils but this time at Christchurch College where they were taking part in an open day run to improve Oxford’s still poor record on diversifying student intake.
Mrs. Obama was asked why she married her husband, what it was like being First Lady and when there would be a female President in the White House. Her message—which she repeated time and again—was work hard, have self-belief, and don’t be afraid to fail. It was very un-British, but rather effective. Afterwards there were hugs for everyone and a photo with her.
And watching the group of multicultural young Britons surround her among the splendor of the college building one thought stood out. Had Mrs. Obama been born in Britain, she would almost certainly not have made it to Oxford as she did to Harvard. But now—thanks in part to her—some of these children just might.
【小题1】According to the passage, Michelle Obama ____________.

A.graduated from Anderson College

D.came from a family without good background
【小题2】It is implied in the passage that these 40 young girls ____________.

There are many fun, free activities that you can do as a family. All that is required is a bit of imagination and some time set aside for fun. And the best part is that these are the kind of memories a child will remember for a lifetime.

Family game night

Find out any of the games that are already around the house. Kids often get computer games for Christmas or birthdays, and would love to have a chance to play with their family. Or, make up some games of your own. “Charades” is a fun game to play that will challenge a child to use his/her imagination. Divide the family into teams and let each team come up with words that the other has to act out.

________________________

Pick some time for the family to sit down and come up with their own masterpiece. It doesn't need to be just a drawing -- take some old magazines sitting around the house, let the kids cut out pictures and paste them into their own montage. Or, use items from nature. Let them use leaves, pine cones, twigs and whatever else they can find to create something from their imaginations.

Family Picnic

Taking the family for a picnic is a great way for some fun that doesn't cost any money. If the weather is nice, take them to a park or playground and let the kids have a day of playing. Or, if it is the middle of winter and a foot of snow is on the ground, set up a picnic in the living room.

Family Field Trip

A family field trip doesn't have to cost a dime. Ask a nearby farm if it would be alright to bring your kids out for a tour and to see some of the animals. Or take them to a park and make a scavenger hunt where they need to find certain items from nature. Ask a local business if you could bring the family for a tour to see how things work -- you might be surprised at the number of people who would be thrilled to share what they do with others, and it could be an interesting lesson for the kids.

1.We can learn from the passage that “charades” ________.

A.is a computer game

B.is too difficult for children

C.involves acting out words

D.should be played by more than four people

2.What is the best title to be put in the blank of part two? ____________

A.Family art time                         B.Family gardening time

C.Family music time                       D.Family cleaning time

3.According to the passage, the family picnic____________.

A.should be held in the middle of winter

B.can be held inside your house

C.will be very meaningful if held in offices

D.will cost much money if held on a farm

4.Who might be most interested in this passage? _________.

A.Parents           B.Teachers          C.Farmers           D.Employers

5.The writer wrote this passage mainly to _____________.

A.encourage children to use imagination.

B.share precious family memories

C.discuss young children’s interests
