    One cold day, an aged lady was sent for her doctor. When he came, she tells him that her right leg was very sore(酸痛)in the knee. The pain sometimes was bad enough to make it walking difficult. She asked him how the trouble could be because she had never before suffered some similar discomfort. After making a careful examination, the doctor said, “You are in a very bad state of health for a woman of your age. I think the trouble in your right knee is just matter of old age. We get diseases as we get old. The trouble will clean up on spring!” “Nonsense, doctor!” she said, “My left knee is perfect, and it is exactly same age as my right.”

    A little old couple walked slowly into McDonald ’ s on one cold winter evening. It seemed that

    they didn' t come to the right place with the young families and young couples eating that night.

    The little old man walked right up to the cash register, placed his order with no hesitation and then paid for their meal. The couple took a table near the back wall and started taking food off the tray. There was one hamburger, one order of French fries and one drink. The little old man unwrapped the plain hamburger and carefully cut it in half. He placed one half in front of his wife. Then he carefully counted out the French fries, divided them in two piles and neatly placed one pile in front of his wife. He took a sip at the drink and then set the cup down between them.

    As the man began to eat his few bites of hamburger, the crowd began to get restless. You could tell what they were thinking, “That poor old couple. All they can afford is one meal for the two of them. ”

    As the man began to eat his French fries, one young man stood and came over to the old couple ’ s table. He politely offered to buy another meal for the old couple to eat. The old man replied that they were just fine. They were used to sharing everything.

    As the little old man finished eating and was wiping his face neatly with a napkin，the young man could stand it no longer. Again he came over to their table and offered to buy some food.

    Even before my father left us, my mother had to go back to work to support our family. Once I came out of the kitchen, complaining, “Mom, I can’t peel(剥……的皮) potatoes. I have only one hand.”

    Mom never looked up from sewing. “You get yourself into that kitchen and peel those potatoes,” she told me. “And don’t ever use that as an excuse for anything again!”

    In the second grade, our teacher lined up my class on the playground and had each of us race across the monkey bars, swinging from one high steel rod to the next. When it was my turn, I shook my head. Some kids behind me laughed, and I went home crying.

    That night I told Mom about it. She hugged me, and I saw her “we’ll see about that” look. The next afternoon, she took me back to school. At the deserted playground, Mom looked carefully at the bars.

    “Now, pull up with your right arm,” she advised. She stood by as I struggled to lift myself with my right hand until I could hook the bar with my other elbow(肘). Day after day we practiced, and she praised me for every rung I reached. I’ll never forget the next time, crossing the rungs, I looked down at the kids who were standing with their mouths open.

    One night, after a dance at my new junior high, I lay in bed sobbing. I could hear Mom come into my room. “Mom,” I said, weeping, “none of the boys would dance with me.”

    For a long time, I didn’t hear anything. Then she said, “Oh, honey, someday you’ll be beating those boys off with a bat.” Her voice was faint. I peeked(窥视) out from my covers to see tears running down her cheeks. Then I knew how much she suffered on my behalf（利益）. She had never let me see her tears.

    1. Which of the following expressions can be used most suitably to describe Mom’s attitude when she made the child to peel potatoes?

    A．Cruel.                                B．Serious.

    C．Cold.                                 D．Strict

    2. What does the sentence “I saw her ‘we’ll see about that’ look” imply(暗示)?

    A．Mom believed every aim could be achieved if you stuck to it.

    B．The race across monkey bars was not difficult enough for a child to give up.

    C．Mom was determined to prove she herself was better than the teacher.

    D．What the child had said brought Mom great attraction and curiosity.

    3. When the child looked down at the kids, they were standing with their mouths open because _________.

    A．they felt sorry for what they had done before

    B．they were afraid the author might fall off and get hurt

    C．they were astonished to find the author’s progress

    D．they wanted to see what the author would do on the bars

    4.The most probable conclusion we can draw after reading the passage is ______.

    A．the last incident was sad enough to make Mom weep

    B．the child’s experience reminded Mom of that of her own

    C．Mom could solve any problem except the one in the last paragraph

    D．in fact Mom suffered more in the process of the child’s growth

    I was nineteen years old the first time I saw my own true character.

    My trip to and from work each day included a ten-minute walk through the heart of downtown, where the   36  often gathered. Like most busy citizens, I learned to   37  those nameless faces. When it came to homeless beggars, my   38  life experience had led me to one   39  that they are on the street because they choose to be, probably due to alcohol or drugs.

    It was an extremely cold day. When I passed the groups of beggars as usual, I heard a shaky voice target me.

    “Spare some change?” he asked.

    I didn’t even   40  looking up at his nameless face. I briefly   41  him walking into a liquor store and buying whiskey with the money we spared him. Like most teenagers, it took me only moments to   42  him.

    “I have no money on me,” I said quickly

    Looking back now, I feel as if God had set out that day to teach me a lesson. And God   43 . Just a few feet past him, I managed to find the only ice patch on the sidewalk. I   44  and landed heavily on my right knee. The   45  was almost killing me as I tried to get up. Then I heard a shaky voice only inches above me.

    “Are you all right?” he asked.

    I knew immediately this was the man I had just rushed past. Even in pain, I   46  took a quick moment to sniff for the smell of alcohol on his breath. There was none. He wasn’t   47 . I saw the   48  in his eyes.

    I   49  to get to my feet. He held my arm as I walked difficultly to the nearby bus stop.

    “My name is Mike,” he said. “That’s quite a fall you took, and you really need to get it checked by a doctor,” he said with deep   50 .

    “This bus goes past the hospital,” I said.

    Mike paused, and a look of sudden   51  crossed his face. He reached into his pocket and pulled out a small cup. He took out all the change and held it out toward me.

    “I think there’s just enough here for you to take the bus,” he said,

    I was highly embarrassed as I remember my   52 . I reached for my purse and took out my change. At least ten dollars. I offered Mike all my change.

    “Thank you and take care of yourself,” I said. Both of us knew that few minutes earlier I couldn’t have   53  what happened to him.

    Mike held his cup tightly,   54  it as if it were the first gift he had ever received.

    A half cup of change seemed too small a gift for the man who gave a   55  to every nameless face I’ve ever seen.

      I am a mother of three children and have recently completed my college degree. The last class I had to take was social study. The last project of the term was called “Smile”. The last class was asked to go out and smile at three people and document their reactions.

      Soon after we were given the project, my husband, my youngest son, and I went out to McDonald’s one cold March morning. It was just our way of sharing special playtime with our son.

       We were standing in line, waiting to be served, when all of a sudden everyone around us began to back way. I turned around and found there standing behind me were two poor homeless men with a horrible “dirty body” smell. The short gentleman, close to me, was “smiling”. His beautiful sky blue eyes were full of light as he searched for acceptance. The second man played with his hands uneasily as he stood behind his friend. I realized the second man was mentally challenged and the blue-eyed gentleman was his salvation (救赎). The short man just asked for a coffee because that was all they could afford.

      I smiled and asked the young lady behind the counter to give me two more breakfast meals on a separate tray. I then walked around the corner to the men’s table. I put the tray on the table and laid my hand on the blue-eyed gentleman’s cold hand. He looked up at me with tears in his eyes and said “Thank you”.

      I started to cry as I walked away to join my husband and son. When I sat down my husband smiled at me and said, “That’s why God gave you to me, Honey. To give me hope.”

    On the last evening of class, I turned in “my project” and the instructor read it. Then she looked up at me and said, “Can I share this?” I slowly nodded as she got the attention of the class. She began to read and we all knew that we need to heal people and to be healed.

      I graduated with one of the biggest lessons I would ever learn: UNCONDITIONAL ACCEPTANCE. “LOVE PEOPLE AND USE THINGS---NOT LOVE THINGS AND USE PEOPLE.”

    1. Why did the people around the author back away?

    A. Because both men were poorly dressed and mentally ill.

    B. Because the short gentleman was smiling to everyone around.

    C. Because two homeless men were also waiting in line, with a bad smell.

    D. Because the second man stood playing with his hands.

    2.After the author handed the meals to the homeless men, she _________.

    A. talked with them for a while.        B. went back to her husband and son

    C. turned in her project               D. regretted and cried

    3. What kind of woman do you think the author is?

    A. Over-curious       B. Caring           C. Mature        D. Lovely

    4. What does the author try to tell us with the last sentence?

    A. Giving is a gesture of love, which people will understand and appreciate.

    B. If you need help from others, you’d better present them with gifts.

    C. If you want to get something from somebody, you should please him with gifts.

    D. Don’t be greedy with money or ask people to do things for you.

    5. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?

    A. The author’s husband was very proud of her.

    B. What the author did to the men touched many people.

    C. Poor as the homeless men were, they had their dignity.

    D. The author felt we should know how to heal people.

    People who put a smiley face at the end of a message, in an attempt to show feeling, show no feeling. I wish there was a symbol for two fingers in the air.
    I had some bad news this week. My manager informed me of this news via email. It was like hearing about the death of a loved one via pigeon. Bad news should only ever be delivered face to face or voice to voice.
    We seem to celebrate our numerous methods of communication, but really there is no communication at all. I talk to my plants more than I talk to my neighbors, I get text messages that take me three hours to read because they’re written like this: “Hi, I ope you av a gr8 day. Call me La8tr.” I had an email from someone this week that read, “Da ut ov 2day are really annoying me!” Ut? I had to say this 20 times before I understood it. Youth has now become ut. Haven’t we taken enough from them—now we have to take their letters?
    I had an email recently from a girl who used to live over the road from me as a child. She wrote, “Hi Shazia, howz u? Im sure u used 2 live across the road from me. We sumtimes played tennis 2 gever at the park and you was in your eliment. I am married now wif 3 daughters.” Then, to my horror, she ended the email with: “Im now teachin in Leeds. Luv Clare.”
    Teaching? With English like this. It’s like saying you’re a train driver when you’ve never seen a train. It was like reading modern Morse code.
    Getting bad news via email makes it seem so much worse than it actually is. Just a few lines, no emotion, no comfort, not really an explanation. Just a few cold hard words. It’s an excuse. Just write a few words and the problem of delivering it is no longer yours. A close friend recently told me she was very happy to announce she was getting married—and made the announcement by email. I don’t know how she didn’t fall off her chair with excitement while writing it. If you are really happy or really sad to announce something important, wouldn’t you like a human reaction? Some euphoria, elation, tears, a punch in the face?
    I receive long text messages every day with information and explanations that I don’t bother reading. They’re boring, and annoy me. In the time it took someone to write me three laborious texts, they could have called, spoken to me, made some tea. People who put a smiley face at the end of a sentence, in an attempt to show feeling, show no feeling. I wish there was a symbol for two fingers in the air, because that’s the one I’d send back.
    The telegram has been responsible for reporting world-shattering events when there were very few other options(选择权). Now we have options, and people opt for the least humane one. My mum, in an attempt to get down with the ut of today, asked me to teach her to text. Now she constantly texts me in block capitals, so it looks as if she is still angry and annoyed with me after all these years.
    People don’t even write by hand any more. My doctor prints out prescriptions from his computer; even my mechanic prints out a receipt. I get typed Christmas cards and my friends send me emails. I get very excited when hand-written letters come through my door, only because they rarely do.
    When I was at school, the girls used to write letters to each other, even though we sat side by side and spoke to one another all day. I think it was a way of expressing private things we were afraid to say when we were 14 and too shy. We used to write things like, “You are my best friend, can’t wait to sit next to you in math.”
    I miss the personal method of communication. Once the pen was mightier than the sword, now it seems the keyboard is mightier than the pen.

    1. 1.

      We can learn from paragraph 3 and paragraph 4 that the writer wants to say ________.

      1. A.
        the spelling mistakes in the messages make her very annoyed
      2. B.
        only writing letters will bring friends and neighbors much closer
      3. C.
        she talks to plants more because no one shares her joys and sorrows
      4. D.
        gestures and the pen can express a lot more than the cold keyboard
    2. 2.

      According to the writer, which of the following can support her opinion?

      1. A.
        She has been separated from all his classmates many years.
      2. B.
        No doctors write prescriptions by hand because of computers.
      3. C.
        In communication, we should write more letters than send messages.
      4. D.
        Less shy than school girls, boys rarely write letters to their friends.
    3. 3.

      According to the passage, we can conclude that ________.

      1. A.
        the writer is a person full of emotions and treasures friendship and affections
      2. B.
        the writer becomes excited when she gets priceless gifts from other people
      3. C.
        her classmates would write to each other because they couldn’t send messages
      4. D.
        people put a smiley face at the end of a message just to show they are happy
    4. 4.

      What message is conveyed in the passage?

      1. A.
        The writer wastes much time in reading many rubbish text messages every day.
      2. B.
        Few people can write letters well in modern society owing to texting messages.
      3. C.
        Now people are too busy to communicate with each other face to face often.
      4. D.
        The writer prefers personal communication rather than electronic equipment.
    5. 5.

      Why does the writer mention the telegram?

      1. A.
        Because she thinks the annoyance of reading text messages is originated from it.
      2. B.
        Because we have more options to keep in touch with each other than ever before.
      3. C.
        Because advanced technology partly takes the blame for lacking the human touch.
      4. D.
        Because she thinks humans today become colder with the development of society.
    6. 6.

      Which of the following best describe the tone of this passage?

      1. A.
        Optimistic.
      2. B.
        Critic.
      3. C.
        Sympathetic.
