Confucius (551BC～479BC), a Chinese philosopher，one of the most influential men in the history of China. Confucius was born in a noble family in the state of Lu. However，his parents were poor. His father died when Confucius was only three  years old. In 527 BC he began his life as a teacher，usually traveling about and teaching the followers that were around him. Confucius worked as an official of the state of Lu. However，he soon left office to travel and teach. In 484 BC he returned to Lu，where he lived until his death.
Living in the turbulent(動蕩的)period，Confucius believed that people must go back to the principles of the ancient wise men. He therefore lectured to his pupils on the classics and taught them how to behave properly in society. Confucius did not write down the principles of his philosophy. The Analects (《論語》)，a work written by some of his followers，is considered the most faithful source of information about his life and teachings.
The teachings of Confucius were practical and moral，rather than religious. He said that man's behavior should be based on five virtues：kindness, uprightness(義)，decorum(禮)，wisdom and faithfulness(信)．He asked everyone to fulfill their duties carefully toward the state. In the centuries after his death，his teachings，known as Confucianism，had a more powerful influence on the Chinese nation.
小題1:At about what age did Confucius begin his teaching？______
A．51.B．27.C．48.D．24.
小題2:The Analects is________.
A．considered to have been written by Confucius
B．a(chǎn)bout the principles of the ancient wise men

小題3:It can be inferred that________.
A．Confucius was born in a very rich family
B．Confucius served as an official in his lifetime

D．Confucianism was more popular after Confucius died

One morning I wasted nearly an hour watching a tiny ant carry a huge feather. Several times, it   36  several obstacles in its path. And after a brief pause it would make the necessary detour (繞道).   37  one point, the ant had to cross a crack(裂縫) about 10mm wide. After some   38   thoughts, the ant laid the feather over the crack, walked   39  it and picked the feather up on the other side, then continued on its way. I was   40  by the cleverness of this ant. It was only a small insect, lacking in   41  yet equipped with a brain to reason, explore, discover and overcome.   42   this ant, like the other two-legged creatures   43  on the earth, also shares human failings.
After some time the ant   44  reached its destination — a flower bed and a small hole that was the entrance to its   45  home. It was there that the ant met its   46   . How could that large feather possibly   47  such a small hole? Of course, it couldn’t. So the ant, after all this   48  and using great brightness, overcoming problems a1l along the way, just gave up the   49  and went home. The ant had not thought the problem through   50  it began its journey and in the end the feather was   51  more than a burden. Isn’t our   52  like that?
We worry about our families; we worry about the   53  of money; and we worry about all kinds of things. These are all burdens — the things we pick up along life’s path, and drag them around the obstacles and over the cracks that life will bring, only to   54  that at the destination they are   55  and we can’t take them with us.

Early this morning, I got up to make a batch of Rice Krispie Treats for my neighbor across the hall. She barely greets me when we see each other, and her sweet little boy, who's now four,  has picked up her mother's manner and will not talk to me, either．
Last Monday, she had called the firefighters when a pan I'd forgotten on the stove caused my flat to fog up while I was out taking a walk. When I came home, the street in front of our apartment house was blocked by a police car, a fire truck and an ambulance! The instant I saw them, I remembered the pan! Luckily, nothing serious had happened, and all my neighbors agreed with the firefighter who said, "It could have happened to anyone．" When I thanked the neighbor who had called the firefighters-let's call her Ivy-and apologized for causing the trouble, she just asked if my cats were all right．When I said they were fine, she said, "Well, that's ok then," and turned into her flat．l felt strangely safe, knowing that even though we don't get along, she'd done the right thing and didn't blame me．So, the Rice Krispie Treats．
Last Christmas, my neighbor carelessly let it out that she was holding a grudge （怨恨） towards me because of an incident we'd had four years ago．I had particularly apologized and asked if there was anything I could do to improve our relationship. She would not accept my apology．
It had taken me a lot of courage to apologize and ask that question instead of insisting that we both shared responsibility for what had happened．Her flat-out refusal to make amends（補償） really shocked and saddened me．After that, I decided I'd just leave her be-a relationship takes two to work．So, you see, I was really scared she was going to refuse my offer again, leaving me standing on her doorstep, facing the closed door and holding my plate of treats． I know some people have a hard time understanding how the possibility of rejection can make an adult so afraid, but that's just the way I felt．
Then, I reminded myself of how loving and good I had felt yesterday when I'd done some random acts of kindness （thanks to helpothers．org）, after telling myself: Feet the fear,  and do it anyway! So I put the squares of Rice Krispie Treats on a beautiful plate, opened my apartment  door-and there she was, standing in the hallway．I smiled and said, "Hi," but when she saw me, she turned on her heels and went back inside, even though she seemed to have just stepped out．I went after her, regardless, and quickly said, "I'm sorry, I've got something for you ! I just wanted to tell you how grateful I am that you were paying attention on Monday．" When she heard me speaking, she turned around． As I held the plate towards her, explaining these were very sweet American treats, and that she could just try and see whether she and her family would like them, her eyebrows winged up-and she took the plate．l was so happy and excited．We then talked a bit about how she'd become aware of the smoke in my flat, and parted ways．
Back in my place, I did a "happy dance", because I had dared to be kind even though I hadn't been sure at all my kindness would be welcome．I do hope that our relationship will slowly get better; I know I was and still am biased（存有偏見）towards her at times, but even if we don't make amends, I want to be able to be kind without depending on other people's behaviors and reactions .
小題1:The neighbor held a grudge towards the writer most probably because_____．
A．the writer's cats disturb her neighbor frequently
B．the writer didn't thank her for calling the firefighters
C．the writer never apologized to her for her misbehaviors
D．the writer had an unpleasant experience with the neighbor long ago
小題2: From Paragraph 4, we can learn that the author_____.
A．was afraid of being rejected again by her neighbor
B．didn't know how to get along with her neighbor
C．didn't admit it was her fault in the last incident
D．refused to forgive her neighbor's rude behavior
小題3: After the writer said "Feel the fear, and do it anyway!", she decided to_____.
A．do an act of kindness
B．leave her neighbor be
C．a(chǎn)pologize to her neighbor once more
D．do something to let her neighbor down
小題4:What can we learn about the writer?
A．She was a professional dancer．
B．She often had quarrels with her neighbor．
C．She had a bias against her neighbor sometimes．
D．She had an unpleasant experience at Christmas this year．
小題5: What does the author try to tell us?
A．Don't punish yourself because of other's mistakes．
B．We should be kind to others, regardless of their behavior．
C．We must keep a good relationship with our neighbors．
D．When we make a mistake, we should have the courage to admit it．

As a boy, Sanders was much influenced by books about the sea, but by the age of fifteen he had decided to become a doctor rather than a sailor. His father was a doctor. So he was often with the doctors and got along very well with them. When he was fourteen, he was already hanging around the hospital where he was supposed to be helping to clean the medicine bottles, but was actually trying to listen to the doctors’ conversations with patients in the next room.
During the war Sanders served in the army as a surgeon(外科醫(yī)生). “That was the happiest time of my life. I was dealing with real sufferers and on the whole making a success of my job.” In Rhodes he taught the country people simple facts about medicine. He saw himself as a life-saver. He had proved his skill to himself and had a firm belief that he could serve those who lived simply, and were dependent upon him. Thus, while in a position to tell them what to do he could feel he was serving them.
After the war, he married and set up a practice deep in the countryside, working under an old doctor who hated the sight of blood. This gave the younger man plenty of opportunities (機會) to go on working as a life-saver.

Forest guards in western India are using cell phones with ringtones of cows mooing, goats bleating and roosters crowing to attract leopards that have wandered into human settlements, officials said on Monday.
The wild cats in the state of Gujarat often get into villages near forests in search of food, say officials, adding that this results in attacks on people. But rather than use methods such as live bait(誘惑物) like goats tied to trees to lure the leopards, which then fall into large pits dug by guards, officials say they have found a safer method to trap the cats.
“The moos of a cow, bleating of a goat from the phone has proved effective to trap leopards,” said D. Vasani, a senior forest official in Gujarat. “This trick works.” Vasani said forest guards have downloaded the sounds of over a dozen animals as ringtones on their mobiles which they attach to speakers and fix behind a cage. They then play the ringtone continuously for up to two hours until the curious leopard appears and moves into the cage looking for its easy meal.
At least five leopards have so far been lured from villages since the new ringtone method was introduced three months ago. The cats have all been released back into forest areas.
Wildlife activists welcomed the new initiative saying that previous methods of trapping the cats using pits often resulted in the animals getting injured.
小題1:What can be the best title of the passage?
A．Cell Phones to Hunt Animals
B．Practical Uses of Cell Phones
C．Wildlife and New Technology
D．Phone Ringtones to Catch Leopards
小題2:Forest guards in India try to catch leopards mainly because ______.
A．leopards attack villagers
B．they want leopard fur
C．leopards attack animals
D．they have new ringtones
小題3:What will be needed to trap the leopards using the new method?
① cell phones   ②animals    ③ sounds of animals   ④ cages    ⑤large pits
A．①②③④B．①③④C．①④⑤D．②③⑤
