One day a student was taking a walk with his teacher. As they went along, they saw a pair of old shoes lying in the path. They were a poor farmer’s, who was working in the nearby field.
The student turned to the teacher, saying: “we will hide his shoes, and hide ourselves behind those trees, and wait to see what he will do.”
“My young friend,” answered the teacher, “we should never make fun of the poor. Why not put a coin in each shoe, and then we will hide ourselves and watch?” The student did so and they both hid themselves behind the trees. The poor man soon finished his work, and came across the field to the path where he had left his coat and shoes.
After putting on his coat, he put his foot into one of his shoes, and felt something hard. Then he bent (彎腰) down to feel what it was, and found the coin. Surprised, he looked at the coin, turned it around and looked at it again. He then looked around, but no person was seen. He put the money into his pocket, and continued to put on the other shoe. His surprise was doubled on finding the other coin.
He couldn’t control his feelings and fell to his knees, looked up to the sky and expressed his thanks. Then he spoke of his wife, sick and helpless, and his children without bread. He said the help would save them from dying.
The student stood there deeply moved, and his eyes filled with tears. “Now,” said the teacher, “are you not much happier than if you had hidden the shoes?”
小題1:When the student saw the shoes, he wanted to _____.
A.steal them B.find their owner
C.play a joke on the ownerD.give the owner some money
小題2: According to the passage, the teacher is _____.
A.quiet and honest B.kind and friendly

On a freezing-cold February morning in Indiana, Jhaqueil Reagan,18, left home to walk to a job interview—ten miles away, over snow-covered roads.
Reagan had been looking for work for months. His mother had died two years earlier, and he was the only caretaker of his younger brother, Cole, 16, and sister, Jazzlyn, seven. He was desperate for a regular salary after cutting lawns(草坪) and doing other temporaryjobs.
Three hours into his hard trip, Reagan had covered only three miles. He paused outside a Cajun restaurant called Papa Roux to ask for directions from owner Art Bouvier, who was clearing ice and snow from the parking lot. “I told him to get on the bus,” says Bouvier. “He thanked me and went on his way.”
Fifteen minutes later, Bouvier pulled up in his car beside Reagan as he walked along. “You’ve really got to be on the bus,” he told Reagan. “I don’t have money for the bus,” Reagan replied. Bouvier offered him a lift. On the way, he asked the boy about his job search.
“I thought, This is the kind of kid I want working for me,” says Bouvier. He got the teen’s phone number and dropped him off for his interview.
Later that day, Bouvier wrote about Reagan on Facebook. “He doesn’t know it yet, but he starts on Monday,” Bouvier wrote. “It’s been a while since I’ve met someone so young with a work ethic(倫理) like that!” A few hours later, Bouvier called to offer Reagan a job. Shocked, the teen accepted on the spot. A television reporter caught wind of the story and interviewed the pair on camera that night.
Today, Reagan is washing dishes, filling orders, and greeting Papa Roux customers for $8.50 an hour. The publicity(宣傳) has brought in so many new customers that Bouvier plans to open a second restaurant by the end of the year.
小題1:Why did Jhaqueil Reagan have to find a job ?
A.Because he had to make enough money to support his family.
B.Because his parents had died two years earlier.
C.Because he wanted to change his job.
D.Because he was desperate for a good job.
小題2:Which of the following can be used to replace the underlined part in the sixth paragraph ?
A.reportedB.deliveredC.heardD.told
小題3:Which of the following words best describes Bouvier?
A.honestB.warm-heartedC.modestD.independent
小題4:What’s the best title of the passage ?
A.A Young Man Who Had an InterviewB.A Young Man Who Found a Job
C.A Boss Who Offered a JobD.A Boss Who Took a Chance

During the next several weeks I went completely to the wolves. I took a tiny tent and set it up on the shore of bay. The big telescope was set up in the mouth of the tent in such a way that I could observe the wolves by day or night.
Quite by accident I had pitched (set up) my tent within ten yards of one of the major paths used by the wolves. Shortly after I had taken up residence one of the wolves came back and discovered me and my tent, but he did not stop or hesitate in his pace. Later, one or more wolves used the track past my tent and never did they show the slightest interest in me. I felt uncomfortable at being so totally ignored. The next day I noticed a male wolf make boundary markers by passing water on the rounds of his family lands.
Once I had become aware of the strong feeling of property rights which existed among the wolves, I decided to use this knowledge to make them at least recognize my existence. One evening, after they had gone off for their regular nightly hunt I staked out a property of my own, including a long section of the wolves’ path. In order to ensure that my claim would not be overlooked, I made a property mark on stones, dumps of moss, and patches of vegetation with a lot of tea. Before the hunters came back, task was done, and I retired, somewhat exhausted, to observe results. A few minutes later, the leading male appeared. As usual he did not bother to glance at the tent, but when he reached the point where my property line intersected (cut across) the trail, he stopped as suddenly as if he had run into an invisible wall.
Cautiously, he extended his nose and sniffed at one of my marked bushes. After a minute of hesitation he backed away a few yards and sat down. Then, he looked directly at the tent and at me.
His glare seemed to become more fierce as I attempted to stare him down. The situation was becoming intolerable. To break the impasse I turned my back on the wolf. Then quickly and with an air of decision, he turned his attention away from me and began a systematic tour of the area I had staked out as my own. As he came to each boundary marker he sniffed it once or twice, then carefully placed his mark on the outside of mine.
小題1: Why did the wolves manage to ignore the author’s presence?
A.Because his tent was out of the wolves’ estate boundaries.
B.Because the author and the wolves were already good friends.
C.Because they did not know him at all.
D.Because the wolves were afraid of strangers.
小題2: Which is TRUE according to the passage ?
A.The author likes staring matches esp. with wolves.
B.Staking the land was very easy.
C.Wolves can see the estate boundaries clearly with their eyes.
D.The author managed to know why the wolves ignore his presence.
小題3: What was the author’s discovery?
A.Wolves were not settled beasts, as is almost universally believed.
B.Wolves were settled beasts and the possessors of an estate with definite boundaries.
C.Wolves were not interested with strangers.
D.Wolves’ family was dominated by a female.
小題4:Why did the author stake out an area of his own?
A.Because he thought it better to be stared at than to be ignored.
B.Because he didn’t want the wolves to use the track past his tent.
C.Because he wanted the wolves to take cognizance of his existence.
D.Because he wanted to find out how fierce the wolf’s glare was.

Our house was directly across the street from the clinic entrance of John Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore. We lived downstairs and rented the upstairs rooms to the patients at the clinic.
One evening as I was fixing supper, there was a knock at the door. I opened it to see a truly awful looking man. He’s hardly taller than my eight-year-old son. “Good evening. I’ve come to see if you’ve a room. I came for a treatment this morning from the eastern shore, and there’s no bus till morning.” He told me he’d been hunting for a room since noon but with no success. “I guess it’s my face... I know it looks terrible, but my doctor says with a few more treatments...” For a moment I hesitated, but his next words convinced me: “I could sleep in this chair on the porch. My bus leaves early in the morning.”
I told him we would find him a bed. When I had finished the dishes, I talked with him. He told me he fished for a living to support his five children, and his wife, who was hopelessly crippled(殘疾的)from a back injury. He didn’t tell it by way of complaint. Next morning, just before he left, as if asking a great favor, he said, “Could I come back and stay the next time?” He added, “Your children made me feel at home. ”
On his next trip he arrived a little after seven in the morning. As a gift, he brought a big fish and the largest oysters(牡蠣)I had ever seen. I knew his bus left at 4:00 a. m. and I wondered what time he had to get up in order to do this for us.
In the years he came to stay overnight with us and there was never a time that he did not bring us vegetables from his garden. I know our family always will be grateful to have known him; from him we learned how to accept the bad without complaint when facing the misfortune.
小題1:Why did the author agree to let the man spend the night in his house at last?
A.Because the man said others refused to accommodate him.
B.Because the man said he would not cause much inconvenience.
C.Because the man said he had come from the eastern shore.
D.Because the man said he had been hunting for a room since noon.
小題2:How long would it take the man to travel from his home to Baltimore by bus?
A.About 1 hour.B.About 2 hours.C.About 3 hours.D.About 4 hours.
小題3:From the text we can know that_____________.
A.the author’s children were kind and friendly to the man
B.the man was fed up with his hard-work and his family
C.John Hopkins Hospital provided rooms-for the patients to live in
D.the author and his family were thought highly of by his neighbors
小題4:The author’s family were grateful to know the man because__________.
A.he often brought them fish and vegetables from his garden

D.he stayed only overnight with the writer’s family

My mind seems always to return to the day when I met Carl. The city bus stopped at a corner to pick up the daily commuters (someone who travels regularly to and from work), a group in which I was included. Boarding the bus, I looked for a place to sit. At last, I found a place near the back.
The man in the seat next to the one I was going for was an older man in a grey suit, well-worn dress shoes, and a black hat like I always pictured reporters wearing, but without the little press card. Seated, I began to read the book I had been carrying, which was Jack Kerouac’s On the Road. The man in the seat next to me introduced himself by asking if I had read any other book like the one I was holding. When I told him I had, he seemed to become interested, and so did I. He introduced himself as Carl and asked if I liked jazz, and I told him that I didn’t really listen to it, and that I liked rock and roll. Waiting for Carl to tell me that I should listen to real music, I was shocked when he just smiled and nodded. He said, "You remind me of myself when I was your age. I remember how my parents hated jazz and how they couldn’t see how I could listen to that awful noise. I bet your parents say the same thing, don’t they?" Now it was my turn to smile, amused with how right he was.
As the bus carried us from one side of the city to the other, Carl and I talked about a lot of different things. The more we talked, the more amazed I became at how much the two of us really had in common, despite the age difference. I haven’t seen him since we parted, but the thought of our connection that day rarely leaves my mind.
Carl really made me think about how much we can learn from each other if we just break through the blocks between us we’ve got. I mean, I would have never thought before that day that I could have anything in common with someone so much older than I. But Carl taught me that no matter what we are, we are all just people, and that we should make an extra effort to try and get to know our neighbors and people we see every day, regardless of age, race, religion, sex, or anything else. If we all take the time to attempt to understand each other, I think that the world would be a much better place that we could share together, as humans.
小題1:From the first paragraph we know that the author _____________.
A.did not mind whether there was a seat or not
B.hoped to have a seat when getting on the bus
C.thought the bus was overcrowded
D.looked for a seat but failed
小題2:The author usually imagined a reporter as one who _____________.
A.liked jazz music
B.enjoyed talking with others
C.liked reading Jack Kerouac’s works
D.usually wore a black hat and press card
小題3: After talking with Carl, the author realized that _____________.
A.older people were nice to talk to
B.he should have known Carl earlier
C.his parents were so different from Carl in listening to music
D.a(chǎn)ge was not necessarily a problem in heart-to-heart communication
小題4:It can be inferred from the passage that _________.
A.the author hasn’t seen the old man since then
B.jazz music used to be more popular than rock and roll
C.the author was not satisfied with human relationships in the world
D.Carl made the author realize we humans live in peace and brotherhood
