Every day was   31   working and Christmas was the one day of the year   32   the children did not work and received a gift — an orange. The children valued it so much that they kept it for weeks, and even   33   — smelling it, touching it and loving it. Usually they tried to kept it for so   34   that it often went bad before they ate it.
    This year John knew he would soon be   35   enough to leave. He would save the orange until his birthday in July. If he preserved it   36  , he might be able to eat it on his birthday. 
    Christmas day finally came. The children were so   37   as they entered the dining hall. In his excitement, John knocked over something, causing a big   38  . Immediately the master shouted, “John, leave the hall and there will be no orange for you.” John’s heart   39  . He turned and ran back to the cold room so that the children wouldn’t see his tears. 
    Then he heard the door open and the children entered. Little Elizabeth with a   40   on her face held out her small hands. “Here John,” she said, “this is for you.” As John   41   his head, he saw a big juicy orange all peeled (剥皮) and quartered ……. Each child had sacrificed (舍弃) their own orange by   42   a quarter and had created a big, beautiful orange for him. 
    John never forgot the sharing, love and personal sacrifice his friends had shown him that Christmas day.   43   that day, after he became rich, every year he   44   send oranges all over the world to children everywhere. His   45  was that no child would ever spend Christmas without a special Christmas fruit!

    Life is too short to waste a moment, so while you still have time, let your hair down, remove that “boring” tag in your so-called life and start making it worthwhile. Below are some tips that will help you live a wonderful life.
    1. Keep a Positive Attitude. Enjoy what you have and work on getting the things you desire. Psychologists believe that optimism (乐观主义) is a good defense against unhappiness, so it is better to keep your optimism alive. Feeling sad about your life will only make you sadder, so be happy.
    2. Don’t Be Afraid to Take Risks. Life is all about taking risks, and that’s the exciting part of it. Challenges and failure are part of life. Once you learn how to take risks, you’ll soon realize how good it feels not to let moments pass you by.
    3. ... You only have one life, so make it worthwhile. Being unwilling to let the past go just keeps you away from the things you should be enjoying at the present.
    4. List the Things You Want to Do. Stop lazing around and give yourself something to be busy with. Write down a list of all the things you want to do and make a timeline, not to stress you out, but to remind you of your goals. So don’t put limits to yourself because you’ll never know what may happen.]
    5. Try Out Something New. Getting into something or trying something unfamiliar to you may seem scary, but nothing can make you feel happier than being able to overcome your fear. Who knows? You might enjoy it! The world is a big place and there are still lots of things waiting to be explored by you. Go to a foreign place where you know no one.
    小题1: From Tip One we know that we should             .
    A．never be afraid to take risks
    B．try something new every day
    C．focus on the good things in life

    A．Enjoy Today and Let Go of the Past.
    B．Never Think of Tomorrow.
    C．Remember You Are the Best.
    D．Never Change Your Mind.
    小题3:The writer may NOT agree that              .
    A．feeling sad about your life does you no good
    B．it’s good to keep yourself busy doing something
    C．you shouldn’t go to a new place where you have no friends
    D．you should enjoy the present instead of always thinking of the past

    Do you have a dream, something you always see yourself doing? Perhaps you see yourself as a lawyer, businessman, or even a scientist. Whatever it is, don’t let it die.
    A dream is a wonderful thing. It can give you hope for your future and encourage you to try when all odds are against you.
    However, there are dream killers that want to kill your dream. They may tell you that it is impossible for you, that you are not smart enough or that it’s never been done before. However, many times the biggest dream killer is yourself.
    Don’t let fear, doubt or lack of finances prevent you from fulfilling（实现） your dream. Talk back to these killers, “I can and fulfill my dream.” You may have to do this every day. The more often you talk to your heart that you can do it, the more safely your dream will be held within you.
    It is very important to take steps towards fulfilling your dream. For me, in order to fulfill my dream of one-day owning my own magazine, I needed to go back to school and finish my college degree. For you, it may be something different. You know deep inside what the voice of your dream calls for. Don’t be afraid and just do it. Try not to let too much time go by. Time is another one of those dream killers.
    Think about the words of a song by Yolanda Adams, “Keep the dream alive. Don’t let it die. If something deep inside keeps inspiring you to try, don’t stop. And never give up. Don’t ever give up on you. Sometimes, life can place a stumbling block in your way. But you have to keep the faith.”
    When you dream, dream big and never give up. Your dream is just yours. Never let anyone tell you that your dream can’t happen -- it can! Keep seeing yourself do what’s never been done before. As you continue to feed your dream and protect it, not only will you keep it alive, but it will come true.
    小题1:What does the underlined words “all odds are against you” in Parragraph 2 mean?
    A．You are in hopeless situation.
    B．You find everything seems strange.
    C．You are not feeling quite well.
    D．You have all your friends against you.
    小题2:What did the author dream of doing?
    A．Getting his own book publishedB．Owing a colledge degree
    C．Becoming a writerD．Publishing his own magazine
    小题3: What do we learn from Paragraph 5?
    A．It takes money to fulfill our dream.
    B．The first step is to know our dream.
    C．It is important for us to take action.
    D．We should not listen to the call of our heart.
    小题4: The words of Yolanda Adams’song are mentioned in the text     .
    A．to support his main point
    B．to make his writing interesting
    C．to show they share the same view
    D．to mean Yolanda Adams is popular

    “Little lies” sometimes come to easily to us that we don’t even consider them to be lies. Read about these lies of everyday life:
    1.  Lying about your age or your kid’s age to get a cheaper ticket.
    2.  Telling the host of a dinner party that the terrible food he prepared is wonderful.
    3.  Lying to your aunt about how much you love the gift she gave you---the one that you really hate.
    4.  Telling a friend with a terrible haircut that she looks great.
    5.  Lying to a friend about how much you want to see her again when you really don’t
    6.Telling the salesperson who calls when you’re watching TV that you’re very busy.
    Are these serious lies? Probably not, but if you would lie about your age to a stranger, what’s going to stop you from lying about something more serious later? If we tell a lie or act dishonestly and get what we want, that might make us feel good today. But what about tomorrow? The future results of our lies are uncertain.
    Still, no one is saying that everyone can or should be completely honest all the time. More people lie, often for a good reason. Lies are told all the time and are part of our everyday social life. Many times people lie to protect the feelings of other people, and there’s nothing wrong with that. Honesty is usually the best policy, but like any other policy, you have to make exceptions. 
    小题1:The author tries to persuade the readers to accept his argument by___________.
    A．making suggestions.B．explaining reasons and results.
    C．providing examples and facts.D．discussing questions.
    小题2:The author’s attitude towards little lies is that_________.
    A．he feels very fond of them.B．he feels they are necessary sometimes.
    C．he feels strongly against telling little lies.D．he feels ashamed of telling little lies.
    小题3:According to the text, which of the following is TRUE?
    A．Some people are born liars.B．People often lie to avoid hurting others.
    C．Some people can be honest all the time. D．Little lies are not serious things.

    Willy, a merchant, returned home to his own country from a faraway continent, where he had succeeded making a small fortune by hard work. He found on arriving at the port that all his relatives were having a large party.
    He was in such a happy mood and in the joy of the moment, he did not even bother changing his grey flannel（法兰绒）suit which had become a little worn during the trip home.
    When he entered the brilliantly lit room, his relatives and friends gave him a rather cold welcome because they had noticed his modest suit and immediately imagined that he had come back a poor man.
    A young man who happened to be accompanying him was quite irritated at this and said to Willy, “What a wonderful reception you have received from these people. They have not even the intention of shaking your hand after all these years that you have been away from home.”
    “Just wait and see!” whispered Willy, “They will soon change their looks!” Saying this he slipped a precious ring on his finger. All of a sudden the faces of all those present lit up and immediately Willy was surrounded by so many people that he didn’t know what to do. A man shook his hand, a cousin threw his arms around him, and he had so many invitations from the people present that he thought he would be unable to make any other appointments for several years.
    “Has this beautiful, precious ring of yours the power of magic people?” asked the young man.
    “Oh, no!” replied Willy, “They see in this glittering diamond ring something that makes them think I am rich, and, unfortunately, they place wealth above everything else.”
    "What blind people!" exclaimed the young man. “It is not the ring that has drawn them to you but their desire for riches. Is it possible to appreciate more a piece of yellow metal surrounded by little stones than the goodness of my Lord? And indeed how foolish are people who place their trust in riches rather than in virtues（美德）!”
    小题1: In what way did Willy go to attend the party held by his relatives and friends?
    A．In such a modest mood.B．In travel-soiled clothes.
    C．Wearing a precious jewel.D．Without being accompanied.
    小题2: The word “irritated” in the fourth paragraph is closest in meaning to “______”.
    A．excitedB．pleasedC．angry D．envious
    小题3: According to the young man, people should ______.
    A．give up all the physical wealthB．appreciate more jewelry than goodness
    C．observe carefully when judging a personD．avoid being blinded by the desire for wealth
    小题4:Which can be the best title of the passage?
    A．The Diamond RingB．The Welcome Party
    C．The Modest Clothes D．The Joyful Crowd

    I often write about the bad state of television these days, but recently my mom told me about a story she saw on 60 Minutes that was inspiring, educational, and entertaining for the whole family. I went to the show’s website to see for myself. My mom was right. At a time when even Barbara Walters says she’s really bored with celebrities interviews, this one will not disappoint.
    It’s the story of Derek Paravicini, a 30-year-old who was born three months early, physically disabled (he can’t button his own shirt), blind, and severely autistic(自闭的).
    Yet, through total luck and coincidence, his family discovered that Derek had a remarkable musical talent when he was three.
    Derek can hear any musical composition one time and play it perfectly on the piano.
    That’s right. He only has to hear it once.
    Even more unbelievable, his brain, like a computer, can keep many songs that he can immediately repeat when asked. But his talent isn’t limited to just learning things by heart. Derek is a true musical genius and artist who plays beautifully in a wide range of styles and can make his own music.
    With his talent, Derek has raised millions of dollars putting on charity concerts. He also donates his time to senior centers where he acts as a human jukebox (自动唱机) machine, taking requests from senior citizens who haven’t heard their favorite songs for decades.
    As it turns out, Derek loves people and his extraordinary talent has been the key to unlocking his personality and social development.
    If you want to inspire your family, pop some popcorn and sit everyone down to watch this excellent piece of journalism. If your kids are like mine, it will cause a great family discussion about the definition of “disability” and the extraordinary ability of the human brain and spirit. It may even give you the perfect answer the next time your child says he or she “can’t” do something. Now that’s priceless.
    Who says there’s nothing good on TV?
    小题1: From the first paragraph, we know that 60 minutes is a TV program on      .
    A．interviewing celebrities
    B．interviewing the disabled
    C．the latest news round the world
    D．stating the positive influence of TV
    小题2: How does Derek help the elderly?
    A．By buying them a jukebox machine.
    B．By building senior centers for them.
    C．By singing the old songs they ask for.
    D．By playing the piano to raise money for them.
    小题3: In the opinion of the author, Derek can     .
    A．attract the whole family to watch TV together
    B．cause family members to help the disabled
    C．help kids understand the ability of their brains
    D．encourage kids to accept challenges in life
    小题4:The author’s purpose in writing this passage is to     .
    A．prove that there is something good on TV
    B．introduce a disabled but gifted musician
    C．call on people to show more love to the disabled
    D．express personal admiration for Derek Paravicini
