17.The sky was completely dark,the house was creaking(吱吱响),and I still had four hours until my parents got home.Locked in my parents'room,I turned on the TV at full volume so I wouldn't hear the creaking house.
I barely heard the phone ring.I picked it up and said,"Hello…hello..?"but there was no response.I knew someone was on the other end.Finally,I hung up.A few minutes later,the phone rang again; still no one was there.I became more frightened as time passed; the same person called five more times.
At this point I didn't bother picking up,but the ringing continued.To get my mind off this caller,I called my friend.She told me not to worry and to turn the phone off.As we talked,I heard someone pull into the driveway.When I peeked out (探出) of the window,I saw an unfamiliar car.
Thirty minutes passed and the car was still in my driveway.It drove up and down the driveway.My friend told me to call the police,but I refused.
Soon the phone calls started again.I heard noises in the background,but I couldn't tell what they were.I really didn't want that person to get out of the car and start toward the house.If they did,I didn't know what I'd do.None of the doors were locked,and I would have no way of protecting myself.The only thing I could do was hide,which wasn't a very good plan.
At this point I was considering calling the police,but my friend offered to drive by."Maybe if they see me pull in,they will leave,"she suggested.By the time she arrived,the car had left.The phone rang again and I picked up,thinking it might be my friend.Someone on the other end said,"Bye-bye."

12."Cleverness is a gift while kindness is a choice.Gifts are easy--they're given after all.Choices can be hard."--Jeff Bezos.
I got the idea to start Amazon 16years ago.I came across the fact that the Internet usage was growing at 2,300percent per year.I'd never seen or heard of anything that grew that fast,and the idea of building an online bookstore with millions of titles was very exciting to me.I had just turned 30years old,and I'd been married for a year.I told my wife MacKenzie that I wanted to quit my job and go to do this crazy thing that probably wouldn't work since most start-ups don't,and I wasn't sure what to expect.MacKenzie told me I should go for it.As a young boy,I'd been a garage inventor.I'd always wanted to be an inventor,and she wanted me to follow my passion.
I was working at a financial firm in New York City with a bunch of very smart people,and I had a brilliant boss that I much admired.I went to my boss and told him I wanted to start a company selling books on the Internet.He took me on a long walk in Central Park,listened carefully to me,and finally said,"That sounds like a really good idea,but it would be an even better idea for someone who didn't already have a good job."That logic made some sense to me,and he convinced me to think about it for 48hours before making a final decision.Seen in that light,it really was a difficult choice,but ultimately (最后),I decided I had to give it a shot.I didn't think I'd regret trying and failing.And I suspected I would always be haunted by a decision to not try at all.
After much consideration,I took the less safe path to follow my passion,and I'm proud of that choice.For all of us,in the end,we are our choices.

25.What inspired the author with the idea of building an online bookstore?C
A.His dream of being an inventor.
B.The support of his wife.
C.The greatly increasing usage of the Internet.
D.Millions of exciting titles.
26.Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined sentence?C
A.The idea of not trying would keep coming to his mind and disturb him.
B.He would be very excited if he tried it out.
C.He would be always having a doubt if he didn't try.
D.The decision to not try the online bookstore would terrify him.
27.We can know from the passage thatC.
A.the boss thought the idea was suitable for the author
B.the author wanted someone else to try the idea
C.the author might not regret if he failed the idea
D.the author might go back to his boss if he failed
28.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?D
A.Cleverness and Kindness      B.The Starting of Amazon
C.Following My Passion         D.We Are What We Choose.

9.Sometimes the things that we believe are holding our families together really aren't.Need proof?Let me share our story.My family is a fairly typical American foursome.Ten years ago,we moved into our dream house-a big,three-story historic home-thinking it would bring us the joy we desired.It was a beautiful place,but as our children grew up,our sense of togetherness began to fade away.In the big dream house,we scattered in different directions.
One day when my daughter,Hannah,was 14,she became upset about the differences between the world's haves and the have-nots.She challenged us to be"a family that makes a difference in the world,even if it's a small difference."My wife,Joan,asked her,"What are you willing to sacrifice?Your house?Your room?"Hannah said yes to both.After talking it over as a family,we decided to sell our house and move to one that was half its size and price-and donate the money to charity.
First,we needed to figure out where our money would go,a process that took about a year.We finally chose The Hunger Project,a U.S.-based nonprofit that works with villagers in Africa,Asia and South America and helps them move from poverty to self-reliance.
Before we downsized,we were a little worried.Had we made too big a sacrifice?Two years later,I can tell you:It's the best move we have ever made.
As we worked together on our family project,those interconnected moments became more frequent.The more we shared,the more we laughed,teased and bonded.As Hannah said the other day,"We learned how to really trust each other."
We don't expect anyone else to copy what we did and sell their home.But most people can find some commodity in their lives they could give up,whether it's time (halving the hours of TV you watch each week and volunteering instead?) or stuff (donating half the clothes in your closet?).Like us,your family could set out to make a small difference in the world-and transform yourselves in the process.

51.Why couldn't the dream house bring the author the happiness as he had expected?A
A.Because the happy family feeling of closeness became less strong.
B.Because the dream house was too big for his family.
C.Because his children didn't like the dream house at all.
D.Because his children have grown up and want to be independent.
52.According to the second paragraph,HannahC.
A.showed no concern about the poor
B.was unwilling to give up her house
C.was a very sympathetic person
D.thought individuals have little effect on the world
53.It can be implied thatB.
A.the author regretted selling his house and giving money away
B.the author made a well-considered decision to donate the money
C.the Hunger Project aims to help the poor by continually giving them money
D.the feeling of togetherness was gained again by living in a smaller house
54.In order to make a difference in the world,the author calls on other familiesC.
A.to sell their houses
B.not to watch TV
C.to do something they can
D.to sell half the clothes
55.What's the best title of the passage?B
A.What Togetherness Is
B.Why We Gave Away Our Home
C.What We Should Do for Our Home

7.I got tired of living the life that everybody told me I"should"be living,so one day I decided to start living life in my own ways.Frustrated(挫败)with my job,I came home,put on my shoes,and just started running.It felt so good to be free.That first day I ended up running 30 miles without stopping.Yes,I had rediscovered my old passion ( 酷爱的事物)-and it felt so good that I set a goal to support myself and my family from my running alone.
I trained hard every day.Since I wanted to be the best I could be,I knew I would have to set some clear goals for myself.A couple of my goals were:run a 135-mile ultra-marathon(超级马拉松) across Death Valley,win the Badwater Ultra-Marathon,and run a marathon to the South Pole.
I had no idea how I was going to achieve these goals,but they certainly encouraged me to work hard.Today,I am really grateful to say that I have achieved all of them.Shortly after completing these goals,I set another goal:to run fifty marathons,in fifty states,in fifty days.Nobody had done anything like this before.To be honest,I was not quite sure if I could.But there was only one way to find out…so I just started training and preparing to give it my best try.
I completed that goal one year ago,and it felt great!But for me,life is not all about achieving goals.Sure,it feels good to succeed,but the greatest reward for me was learning more about myself and what I was able to do.
Only by stepping out into the unknown and stretching(使倾注全力) ourselves can we really discover what our true potential(潜能) is.

56.Which played an important role in the author's success?A
   A.Setting goals                B.Learning from others.
   C.Being honest                 D.Keeping on reading.
57.According to Paragraph 3,before achieving the goals the author feltB
   A.very grateful                B.not quite confident
   C.quite afraid                 D.not very satisfied
58.What does the underlined part"that goal"in Paragraph 4 refer to?C
   A.Win the Badwater Ultra-Marathon.
   B.Run a marathon to the South Pole.
   C.Run fifty marathons,in fifty states,in fifty days.
   D.Run a 135-mile ultra-marathon across Death Valley.
59.The author probably agrees thatD.
   A.life means achieving goals
   B.success is the greatest reward
   C.sports help develop our potential
   D.everyone may have great potential.
