The Pecan Thief
When
I was six years old, I was visiting my grandfather’s
farm in Kansas. Grandpa had sent me into the 36 to gather
pecans for us to enjoy later.
Pecan picking was really 37 work and my little basket
was only half full. I wasn’t about to 38 Grandpa down. Just
then something caught my 39 . A large brown squirrel was
a few feet away. I watched as he picked up a pecan, hurried to a tree and 40 in a large hole in the trunk. A moment later the squirrel 41 out and climbed down to the ground to pick up another nut. Once again, he took the pecan back to his hiding place.
Not so 42 anymore, I thought. I dashed over to the tree and looked into the hole. It was 43 with pecans! Golden pecans were right there for taking. This was my 44 . Handful by handful, I scooped all of those pecans into my basket. Now it was full! I was so 45 of myself. I couldn’t wait to show Grandpa all the pecans. 46 , I ran back and shouted, “Look at all the pecans!” He looked into the basket and said, “Well, well, how did you find so many?” I told him how I’d 47 the squirrel and taken the pecans from his hiding place.
Grandpa congratulated me on how smart I’d been in observing the squirrel and his habits. Then he did something that 48 me. He handed the basket back to me and put his arm gently 49 my shoulders.
“That squirrel worked very hard to gather his winter 50 of food,” he said. “Now that all of his pecans are gone, don’t you think that little squirrel will 51 the cold winter? ”
“I didn’t think about that, ” I said.
“I know,” Grandpa said. “But a good man should never take 52 of someone else’s hard work.”
Suddenly I felt a bit 53 . The image of the starving squirrel wouldn’t 54 my mind. There was only one thing I could do. I carried the basket back to the tree and poured all the nuts into the hole.
I didn’t eat any pecans that night, but I had something much more filling—the 55 of knowing I had done just the right thing.

Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
(A)
Margie Bland remembers the phone call from Iraq sometime before Christmas. Her son, Army specialist Joseph Darby , a military police officer in the reserves(not full – time soldiers), was on the phone and she could tell something was wrong.
Darby , 24 , would later come out as the soldier who first alerted the world to the abuse of Iraqi prisoners by US guards at Abu Ghraib prison in Baghdad on January 13. “I could tell in his voice he was not sleeping.” Blank , 45, recalls. “He said ‘I don’t fell good.’” Darby was feeling bad about something he thought was very wrong. “It was really hard on him”, his mother said. “He didn’t want to go against his troops, but he said he could not stand the cruelty he had discovered . He said he kept thinking , ‘What if that was my mum, my brother or my brother or my wife?’” Darby slipped an anonymous note under a military investigator’s door in January, about the mistreatment of prisoners. He later turned in a CD-ROM with 1,000 photos documenting the cruelty, according to a recently disclosed internal Army report. “I told him, ‘Your picture is in the paper, ’” Blank said. “I said, ‘Honey , you did a good thing and good always triumphs over evil ’ And he said, ‘You’re right, mum.’”
Darby grew up in western Pennsylvania, US To help his family, he worked at a fast food restaurant as a teenager and as a mechanic after graduating from high school. He thought the Army might lead to a better life—even a college education. So, like many others, he ended up in Iraq.

Whatever we may need to buy，we can use our credit cards．This is a change from the older days when we had to first check whether cards were accepted．Today，everybody, from retailers（零售商) to lenders，accepts credit cards．Attitudes towards credit cards have also changed a lot．People used to be
very careful of using their cards；but this is no longer the case. People today prefer to take out their cards as soon as they get to the cash counter．A swipe (刷卡) and a sign are all it takes，and you can walk home with the bill and all the things you buy．
The credit card is much easier to carry than cash and it is not at all surprising that the former becomes the most preferred way of payment．A credit card takes up very little space in our wallets，and yet，it holds the power of a large sum of cash．Paying by credit cards is also a good way of keeping bills on where all of our money goes．
Moreover，it has become much easier to get credit cards these days．I constantly have cold callers calling up to offer me “great new credit card deals”．Salesmen occasionally walk into our office offering discounts if a group of people decide to sign up a certain kind of credit card plan at the same time．However，this can also cause a problem．Nowadays，we always run the
risk of getting some kinds of wastes．When the terms seem too good to be true，we should make sure that we always read the printed items carefully．Before signing for a credit card，it is necessary to know its advantages and disadvantages．The only way to deal with this is to do our homework, before we go credit card hunting．
1.We learn from Paragraph 1 that ．
A．people can use credit cards anytime，anywhere
B．people used to have to check up on credit cards
C．people are more careful using credit cards nowadays
D．people can take their goods home just by swiping their cards
2.One of the main advantages of credit cards is that ．
A．they occupy less space compared with other modes of payment
B．they are more powerful than cash
C．they are easy to get，and save money
D．they help users keep track of what they spend on
3.When signing for a credit card，people should .
A．ask for a discount
B．understand the dangers
C．read every word of the contract carefully
D．understand that the salesman is most likely to offer false information
4.In the last sentence the writer tells us that ．
A．we should know the advantages and disadvantages of credit cards before using them
B．we should finish work before going shopping with a credit card
C．we should check which credit cards are accepted before using them
