7.My first full-time job after high school was selling vacation packages via the telephone for a well-known company.One day,I was put through to a man who sounded a bit out of breath.I started with my normal pitch (音高),expecting to hear the normal reply-"I don't want any."
Instead,he spoke in a faint,weak voice and told me how he wished to take a vacation I was offering,but he couldn't because he was dying of illness.He explained how he was lacking in oxygen then,and it took almost all his energy to answer the call.He asked if I smoked,which I did,and begged me to stop.He told me smoking was what was killing him.He told me to spend every day with my loved ones,and tell them how much I love them.At this point,I couldn't control myself.We ended the call,but I held on my phone to prevent another call coming in so I could collect myself.
I wrote down his name and address,and sent him a card appreciating his advice and praying for him and his family.Shortly after,I received a letter from Frank,along with a picture of him and his wife.We continued to write back and forth over the next few months,and became very fond of each other.He was old enough to be my grandfather,and in many ways,I felt as if he was.
About a year later I received a letter from his wife.When I started to read,tears came to my eyes.She told me how Frank's battle with the disease had finally come to an end,and he passed away shortly before the Christmas.She wanted to thank me for the letters to Frank,and explained how Frank touched many lives over the years.At his funeral,to show just that,they read the 1st letter I had written to Frank to show how he affected a 19-year-old he'd never met.
1.The underlined part"collect myself"in the second paragraph probably means"D".
A.gather together         
B.comfort myself
C.relax myself              
D.calm down
2.We can learn from the text that the authorD.
A.took down Frank's name and address to visit him in person

C.didn't stop smoking even though Frank asked him to
D.kept in touch with Frank through letters until he died

B.indicate that Frank touched many people's hearts
C.show the good relationship between Frank and the author

1.It's never easy moving schools.You're settled in the school you're in,you have your friends and you know your teachers and you just don't want the change.But unfortunately sometimes it is necessary to move schools and start again.Once you've started at the new school there are little tips and tricks you could try to help you fit in and make new friends easily.

The teachers at your new school will be happy to help you settle in.If you are having any trouble fitting in or even if you just want to talk to someone who understands,have a word with your teacher.He or she will be happy to listen to you.If you are having trouble with another class member and you don't know what to do about it,talk with your teacher.Your teacher is there to help so be sure to confide in him or her whenever you need to.
Moving to a new school in an unfamiliar area can be hard.You'll be keen to fit in but don't worry too much.Before long you'll have made lots of friends and you'll be having fun again.

31.Why does the author think moving schools difficult?A
A.You are used to your old environment.
B.Your teachers don't want you to change school.
C.It is never easy to get permission of the authority.

18.Pilling a cat can be a'terrible"experience.Cats don't want something pushed down their throats,and they'll fight with all their strength to prevent it.In fact,it's amazing how powerful their small bodies can be.
The easiest way of pilling a cat is to press the pill into powder.Then mix the powder with a small amount of wet food.If your cat usually eats dry food,she will probably view the wet food as a treat and eat it up.
If your cat won't eat the wet food that contains the pill or if she is too ill to eat,you can get a"pill gun".There are some basic instructions.Getting your cat's mouth to open is going to be the most difficult part.First,be sure the pill is in a handy place.Then you can put your cat on a bookshelf with her bottom in a corner or you can put her on your lap firmly tied.Have your cat facing to the right if you're right-handed.With your left hand,hold your cat at the cheekbones,putting your palm (手掌) at the top of her head.Keeping your finger off the trigger (扳机),with your right hand,Insert the pill gun until the pill is positioned over the tongue and open throat Be sure to give your cat a treat directly after giving the pill.
If you don't feel comfortable using a pill gun,you can try giving the pill by hand.Push your cat's head backwards just far enough so that her nose is pointing towards the ceiling.At this point,most cats will slightly open their mouths.With the little finger or ring finger of the hand holding the pill,open the bottom jaw a little more.You may need to hold her top jaw with your other hand while doing this.Aim straight and lightly throw the pill or drop it.Most cats will then swallow the pill.

72.Pilling a cat can be a terrible experience because catsC.
A.are amazingly powerful and dangerous
B.may fight with all their strength against pills
C.refuse something pressed down their throats
D.are difficult to treat once they've got ill

19.Just before midnight,six University of Cincinnati students were watching TV in an on-campus apartment when three men burst through the door.While one of the intruders pointed a gun at the group,the other two scooped up $4,400 worth of laptops,cell phones,video games and cash.Once they had what they wanted,the trio fled into the night.
Furious,the students chased down and tackled one of the burglars--the one with the gun.In the struggle,it went off,and a bullet grazed a student's leg.His friends piled on the gunman and held him until police showed up.
By the next day,the injured young man was back in his apartment,and the suspect was in jail,charged with burglary,felonious assault and receiving stolen property.But how did the men manage to storm into an on-campus residence that November night in the first place?Simple:Students told police the building's main doors hadn't latched properly for days.
As parents confront ballooning college costs and shrinking acceptance rates,they are finding themselves with an even bigger,more basic problem:Which campuses are safe?Colleges seem like idyllic and secure places,and for the most part,they are.But ivy-covered walls can't keep out every bad element.This country's 6,000 colleges and universities report some 40,000 burglaries,3,700 forcible sex offenses,7,000 aggravated assaults and 48 murders a year.Other hazards--fires,binge-drinking,mental-health problems--are also on the rise.
Of course,that's not what parents and students see on America's serene campuses.There's a false sense of security,says Harry Nolan,a safety consultant in New York City."Students see guards patrolling at night or a video camera monitoring the dorm entrance and think,Nothing bad can happen to me,"he explains."People don't know that safety controls are often very lax."
65.What did the students do after the burglars fled into the night?B
A.They stood there in surprise.
B.They ran after the burglars at once.
C.They waited for the police.
D.They phoned their teacher.
66.What does the underlined word"latched"in the third paragraph probably mean?C
A.watched      B.fixed                C.locked           D.kept
67.What worries parents most except ballooning college costs and shrinking acceptance rates?B
A.Their children's grades in the universities or colleges.
B.Their children's safety in the universities or colleges.
C.Their children's behavior in the universities or colleges.
D.Their children's relationship with classmates in the universities or colleges.
