Twenty years ago, Mark Thatcher, the son of Mrs. Thatcher, was reported missing in the Sahara Desert while competing in the Grand Prix Motor race from Paris to Daker. The sad news, so unexpected, shook the unusually      and unhurried politician off her balance. Though she did her best to    as if nothing had happened and made her public appearance as usual, people could not fail to notice that she was no longer the old self-assured prime minister who always had everything under    . Instead she had become a very sad mother who was unable to     from her shock.
One day when she was to    at a lunch party, a reporter caught her off her guard by bringing up the     of her missing son again. She was    mentally unprepared for the question and lost her self-control. Tears were    her cheeks    she sobbingly told the reporter there was still no news of Mark and that she was very worried about him. She said that all the countries concerned had    to do their best to help her find her son. With that she    down completely and sobbed silently for quite a while. Gradually she calmed down and started to speak as    . It was a very    scene which exposed a new side of Mrs. Thatcher’s    the public do not usually see. People began to talk about the Iron Woman’s     love, a    that is common to all human race.
Later Mark returned    to his mother’s side, good-humored and all smiles as usual   nothing unusual had ever happened. The Iron Woman,      , broke down again and was     sobbing for a second time.

One day, a poor boy who was trying to pay his way through school by selling goods from door to door found that he had only one dime left. He was hungry so he decided to beg for a meal at the next house.
However, he became nervous when a lovely young woman opened the door. Instead of a meal, he asked for a drink of water. She thought he looked hungry so she brought him a large glass of milk. He drank it slowly, and then asked, “How much do I owe you?”
“You don’t owe me anything,” she replied, “Mother has taught me never to accept pay for a kindness.” He said, “Then I thank you from the bottom of my heart.” As Haward Kelly left that house, he not only felt stronger physically, but it also increased his faith in God and the human race. He was about to give up and quit before this point.
Years later, the young woman became seriously ill. The local doctors were baffled. They finally sent her to the big city, where specialists could be called in to study her rare disease. Dr. Haward Kelly, now famous was called in for the consultation. When he heard the name of the town she came from, a strange light filled his eyes. Immediately, he rose and went down through the hospital hall into her room.
Dressed in his doctor’s gown he went in to see her. He recognized her at once. He went back to the consultation room and determined to do his best to save her life. From that day, he gave special attention to her case.
After a long struggle, the battle was won. Dr. Kelly requested the business office to pass the bill to him for approval. He looked at it and then wrote something on the side. The bill was sent to her room. She was afraid to open it because she was positive that it would take the rest of her life to pay it off. Finally she looked, and the note on the side of the bill caught her attention. She read these words,
“Paid in full with one glass of milk.”
(Signed) Dr. Haward Kelly
Tears of joy flooded her eyes as she prayed silently, “Thank You, God. Your love has spread through human hearts and hands.”

A．They looked on indifferently.
B．They asked for Dr. Howard Kelly’s help.
C．They sent her to a hospital with specialists.
D．They believed that his faith in God would cure her.

The story I’m going to tell truly happened in my life.
The other day, I met a man outside the gym who       a movie star. He was handsome and smiling. His upper body was muscular（肌肉發(fā)達(dá)的）and he       to be on top of the world.
“How are you?” I       with a smile. “I’m doing really well,” he replied in a cheerful voice. His enthusiasm and big smile        the parking garage.        as he walked up, I       his long legs were thin and I saw he had a silver cane (手杖). “Why do you need that cane?” I couldn’t        thinking he had a minor injury. “I have MS,” he answered in a        voice too, as if his broad smile       left his face. Multiple Sclerosis（多發(fā)性硬化癥）is a very serious disease and often painful. I looked at him from my little red sports car and said, “You        it very well. You seem like a happy man       the MS.” Without losing a bit of his smile he replied, “I am a happy man,” and then added, “I’d be even happier if I had that sports       .”
It was ironic (諷刺的). Just       we spoke, I’d been sitting in that little sports car, feeling sad about my painful shoulder over the last 11 months as I was       after an operation. Here’s a man with a       far tougher than mine, but his positive attitude made him feel no less happiness. He went on with his       of life as usual, which moved me deeply.
It was also a wonderful reminder of that old       , “I cried because I had no shoes. Then I met a man who had no feet.”       your problems, just keep in       that none of us goes through life       and you should make the most of what you have, like the man with MS. Count your blessings.

Standing       the meat, I searched for the perfect small steak       my husband used to love it.       a woman came up beside me. I watched as she picked up a large pack of T-bone steaks, dropped them in her basket,      , and then put them back. She turned to go and once again       for the pack of steaks. She saw me       her and she smiled. “My husband loves T-bone steaks, but they are so expensive.”
“My husband       away eight days ago,” I told her, and       to control the sadness in my voice, “Buy him the T-bone steaks. And       every moment you have together.”
     by my words, she placed the steaks in her basket and walked away      . But several minutes later she came towards me again,       a package in her arms. She was       the brightest smile I had ever seen.
As she      , I saw what she held. “These are for you,” she placed three beautiful yellow roses in my hands. I wanted to tell her what the roses       for me, but, unable to speak, only watching her walking away.
Looking down at the roses, I wondered       she knew it. Suddenly the answer seemed so      . I wasn’t alone. There were       many people caring for me and willing to help me. Just be thankful for what you have and who you are.

科目：高中英語 來源：不詳 題型：閱讀理解

He is talent and charm(魅力) have made him the No.1 Chinese classical artist in the world. He played in the grand Beijing Olympic opening ceremony last summer, watched by a TV audience of 5 billion.
Lang Lang, 26, is the first Chinese pianist to play with the world’s top orchestras, making his debut at the Carnegie Hall in New York at 18, while still a student.
Lang Lang’s charm and fondness for sharp clothes make him a natural fit to represent（代表）China’s new international image. According to the British newspaper the Times, “The Lang Lang effect” is responsible for driving 36 million Chinese children to learn the piano.
Now in China children are learning Chopin(肖邦) and Western orchestras are touring Chinese cities, but can China ever export（出口）its own music to the west? Lang is trying. His cooperation with the London Symphony Orchestras this month includes a performance of Dragon Songs, an album of traditional Chinese classics.
Behind the international recognition, however, is a fascinating story of a gifted child. Lang grew up with his father’s own musical ambition and high expectations. It is not hard to imagine how boring it must be to practice the piano every day. Lang said that he once hated his hands and the piano. He injured his right hand six years ago and had to rest. “That was the best month,” he says, without hesitation. “I had a date. I saw a Broadway show and saw Britney Spears in concert.”
