It was her giggling that drew my attention．Note taking really wasn’t all that funny．
Walking over to the offender, I asked for the    21 ．Frozen, she refused to give it to me．I waited, all attention in the classroom on the quiet    22  between teacher and student．When she finally   23  it over she whispered, “Okay, but I didn’t draw it”.
It was a hand-drawn    24   of me, teeth blackened and the words “I’m stupid” coming out of my mouth．I managed to fold it up calmly．My mind,    25  , was working angrily as I struggled not to   26  .
I figured I knew the two most likely candidates for drawing the picture．It would do them some   27  to teach them a lesson, and maybe it was high time that I did it!
Thankfully, I was able to keep myself   28  .
When there were about six minutes remaining, I showed the class the picture．They were all silent as I told them how   29  this was for me．I told them there must be a reason    30   and now was their chance to write down anything they needed to tell me．Then I let them write silently while I sniffed in the back of the classroom．
As I   31   the notes later, many of them said something like, “I’ve got nothing against you,” or “I’m sorry you were hurt．” Some kids said, “We’re   32  of you．” But two notes, from the girls who I   33 were behind the picture, had a list of issues．I was too   34 , too strict…
Reading those notes, I realized that over the course of this year, instead of   35  my students, I had begun commanding them to   36 ．Where I thought I was driving them to success I was    37   driving them away．
I had some apologizing to do．But the next day in the classroom, one boy and one girl each handed me a card．The one   38    by all the boys expressed sincere regret for the ugly joke．The one from the girls asked for    39  .
This was a lesson for both the kids and me．Forgiveness does not change the past, but it does enlarge the    40  .

Last year．I took a sightseeing trip to Washington, DC．I heard a voice say, “Can you help me?” When I turned around, I saw an elderly blind woman with her hand extended．Immediately, I pulled out all of my change and placed it on her hand without even looking at her．But the blind woman smiled and said, “I don’t want your money．I just need help finding the post office．”
In an instant, I realized what I had done．I acted with prejudice―I judged another person simply for what I assumed she had to be．I hated what I saw in myself．
The thing I had forgotten about myself is that I am an immigrant．I left Honduras and arrived in the US at the age of 15．I started my new life with two suitcases, my brother and sister．Through the years, I have been a doorkeeper, cashier and pizza delivery driver among many other humble(卑微的)jobs, and eventually I became a network engineer．
In my own life, I have experienced prejudice．I remember a time―at the age of 17―when I was a busboy, I heard a father tell his little boy that if he did not do well in school, he would end up like me．
But now, living in my American middle-class lifestyle, it is too easy to forget my past, to forget who I am, where I have been ,and to lose sight of where I want to be going．That blind woman on the streets cured me of my blindness．She reminded me of my belief in humility(謙虛)．By the way, I helped that lady to the post office．I hope to thank her for the priceless lesson．
小題1:How did the writer give the blind woman money?
A．In a modest wayB．In a polite way
C．In an impatient way．D．In a painful way
小題2:According to the text, the writer__________．
A．still lives a poor life

On the morning of November 18, 1755, an earthquake shock Boston. John Winthrop, a professor at Harvard College, felt the quake and awoke. “I rose”, Winthrop wrote, “and lighted a candle, looked at my watch, and found it to be 15minutes after four.” John Winthrop hurried downstairs to the grandfather clock. It had stopped three minutes before, at 4:12. Except for stopping the clock, the quake had only thrown a key from the mantel(壁爐臺) to the floor.
The clock had stopped because Winthrop had put some long glass tubes he was using for an experiment into the case for safekeeping. The quake had knocked the tubes over and blocked the pendulum(鐘擺).Winthrop, therefore, had the key on the floor. The quake had thrown it forward in the direction of the quake’ s motion by a shock coming from the northwest, perhaps in Canada.

A．the floorB．the keyC．the clockD．the case
小題2:The selection suggests that     .
A．earthquakes are common in Boston
B．John Winthrop was a scientist
C．John Winthrop often had difficulty in sleeping
D．Harvard College was a center for earthquake researching

I had the meanest mother in the world. While other kids ate candy for breakfast, I had to have cereal, eggs and toast. Others had cakes and candy for lunch, while we had to eat a sandwich. As you can guess, my supper was different from the other kids’. But at least I was not alone in my suffering. My sister and two brothers had the same mean mother as I did.
My mother insisted on knowing where we were at all times. She had to know who our friends were and what we were doing. We had to wear clean clothes every day. Other kids always wore their clothes for days. We reached the height of disgrace(恥辱) because she made our clothes herself, just to save money.
The worst is yet to come. We had to be in bed by 9:00 each night and up at 7:45 the next morning. So while my friends slept, my mother actually had the courage to break Child Labor Law. She made us work. I believed she lay awake all night thinking up mean things to do to us. Through the years, our friends’ report cards had beautiful colors on them, black for passing, red for failing. My mother, however, would only be satisfied with black marks. None of us was allowed the pleasure of being a dropout(退學(xué)者).
She forced us to grow up into educated and honest adults. Using this as a background, I’m now trying to bring up my three children. I’m filled with pride when my children think I am mean because now I thank God every day for giving me the meanest mother in the world.

Recently, a professor of philosophy in the United States has written a book called Money and the Meaning of Life．He has discovered that how we deal with money in our day-to-day life has more meaning than we usually think．One of the exercises he asked his students to do is to keep a record of every penny they spend for a week．From the way they spend their money, they can see what they really value in life．
He says our relation with others often become clearly defined when money enters the picture．You might have wonderful friendship with somebody and you think that you are very good friends．But you’ll know him only when you ask to lend you some money．If he does, it brings something to the relationship that seems stranger than ever before．Or it can suddenly weaken the relationship if he doesn’t．This person may say that he has a certain feeling, but if it is not carried out in the money world, there is something less real about it．
Since money is important to us, we consider those who possess a lot of it to be very important．The author interviewed some millionaires in researching his book．
Answer: The most surprising thing is why people give me so much respect．I’m nothing．I don’t know much．All I am is rich．
People just have an idea of making more and more money, but what is it for? How much do I need for any given purposes in my life? In this book, the professor uncovered an important need in modern society; to bring back the idea that money is an instrument rather than the end．Money plays an important role in the modern world, but expecting money to give happiness may be missing the meaning of life．
小題1:According to the first paragraph, people haven’t realized __________．
A．how important money is in their day-to-day life
B．how one spends money shows what is important to him
C．that money is more important than their philosophy of life
D．that their understanding of life is more important than money
小題2:What can we learn about the millionaire from his answer in the interview is that         .
A．he does not feel that he is well -educated
B．he does not consider himself to be very successful
C．he does not think that he is a very important person
D．he does not think being rich deserves so much attention
小題3:What does the American professor of philosophy want to explain in his book?
A．Money is a means．B．Money is everything．
C．Money is an end．D．Money is unimportant．
小題4:Which of the following might the author disagree?
A．Money is important in modern society．
B．Wealth will surely bring the owner happiness．
C．The meaning of life doesn’t completely lie in money．
D．Happiness is not necessarily the result of wealth．

When we think about giving help to developing countries, we often think about giving money so that these countries can build schools and hospitals, buy food and medicine, or find clean water supplies. These seem to be the most important basic needs of the people we are trying to help. However, it's far from enough. Ladies and gentlemen, we've got to come up with some better ideas to help them.
I was very surprised, then, when I read about a plan to make cheap laptop computers for children in developing countries. A man called Nicholas Negroponte invented a cheap laptop computer and he planed to produce a lot and sell them to the children in developing countries at a low price after he visited a school in Cambodia. The laptop will be covered in rubber so that it is very strong and won't be damaged easily. The idea is that these computers will help the children's education as they will be able to surf the Internet. By improving children's education they should help people to find their own solutions to their problems in the long term.
Another idea to help children in developing countries is to recycle old mobile phones so that they can be used again. In the UK, and probably in many other countries too, millions of mobile phones are thrown away every year. The waste created by throwing away these old phones is very bad for the environment, so it seems to be an excellent idea to recycle them. In this way we will be able to achieve two important goals at the same time. We will reduce the waste we produce and help others. In other words, we will be able to 'kill two birds with one stone’, and that is always a good thing.
小題1:
It's an excellent idea to recycle old mobile phones because        .
A．it reduces waste and can help others
B．it prevents waste and can earn lots of money
C．it can send the waste produced by developed countries to other countries
D．it is good for the environment and very educative for phone users
小題2:
The author gives the example of Mr. Negroponte’s cheap computers        .
A．to show what high technology can bring us
B．to show the kindness of people in the developed countries
C．to show how to find business opportunities in developing countries
D．to give an example of how to help developing countries
小題3:
Where does this passage probably come from?        .
A．A newspaper.B．A magazine.
C．A lecture.D．An advertisement.
