Suddenly, his face turned red, and he had nothing in mind after boarding the plane for long.
After returning to the homeland, he often told the story to his family, and his employees, too．He said that this made a deep   53  on him, because an additional high “school” fee that he had ever paid made him realize the value of   54 , which he would   55  as the secret of his success forever.

俗話說“貪小便宜吃大虧”，在生活中誠信顯得很重要。本文通過描述Mr.Glen的一段親身經(jīng)歷說明了這一道理。
36.選A�？疾楣潭ù钆�。set up設(shè)立，成立；come up走近，出現(xiàn)；go up上升，增長；call up召喚，使想起。由語境可知選A，他成立了他的小公司。
37.選C。根據(jù)全文可知，Mr.Glen把這次教訓當做交了一次“額外的”學費。extra額外的，不包括在價目內(nèi)的。文章最后一段中because an additional high “school” fee也有暗示。
38.選B。根據(jù)前文decided to return to the homeland可知，此處表示“離開”。
39. 選C�？蘸蟮膍ade through years of work after school and the scholarships可知，表是他用他的積蓄(課外工作所得和獎學金)買的。saving存款，積蓄。
40.選C�？疾楣潭ù钆�。take down拿下，摘下；put down放下，拒絕；lie down躺下；look down俯視，跌價。此處的意思是：手表也要摘下來進行檢查。故選C。
41.選C。根據(jù)后文中nearly ￥100,000可排除A和B，從had to pay the tax可知，攜帶特定的物品出境需要繳稅。
42.選B。it代指前面的the tax。
43.選D。根據(jù)后文中carrying fake and shoddy(劣質(zhì)的)goods可知。
44.選B。be proud of以……自豪。他以為自己的小聰明會得逞，正洋洋自得。
45.選A。in the presence of Glen“當著Glen的面”。
46.選D。定語從句的引導詞which指代the watch，cost的主語為物，spend的主語為人。
47.選A。根據(jù)Glen was amazed可知答案。他還沒有明白過來是怎么回事，就被帶到了辦公室。
48.選D。根據(jù)后文“他知道只有‘黑名單’上的人才‘享受’這種特殊待遇，工作人員仔細檢查了他的箱子”可以判斷，應(yīng)選D項。
49.選B。此處指根據(jù)多次出入境的經(jīng)歷，他知道……。
50.選A。工作人員警告他無論什么時候出入境，他都必須接受檢查。

52.選D。board the plane登機。
53.固定短語make a deep impression on表示“給……留下深刻的印象”。

A lesson in caring
It was a cold evening. My daughter and I were walking up Broadway. I didn’t notice a guy sitting inside a cardboard box. But Nora    36    . She wasn’t even four, but she   37    at my coat and said, “That man’s cold. Daddy, can we take him home?”
I don’t remember my   38    . But I do remember a sudden   39    feeling inside me. I had always been delighted at how much my daughter noticed in her   40     , whether it was     41    flying or children playing. But now she was noticing   42    and beggary.
A few days later, I saw an article in the newspaper about volunteers who picked up a food package from a nearby school on a Sunday morning and   43     it to an elderly person. It was quick and easy. I signed us up. Nora was   44    about it. She could understand the importance of food, so she could easily see how   45    our job was. When Sunday came, she was ready, but I had to    46    myself to leave the house to fetch the food package. On my way to the school, I fought an urge (強烈愿望) to turn    47    . The Sunday paper and coffee were waiting for me at home. Why do this?   48    , we phoned the elderly person we’d been appointed. She   49    us right over.
The building was in a bad state. Facing us was a silver-haired woman in an old dress. She took the package and asked us to come in. Nora ran inside. I unwillingly followed.   50     inside, I saw that the department belonged to someone poor. Our hostess showed us some photos. Nora played and when it came time to say goodbye, we three hugged. I walked home    51    .
Professionals call such a(n)   52    “a volunteer opportunity”. They are opportunities and I’ve come to see. Where else but as volunteers do you have the opportunity to do something    53     that’s good for others as well as for yourself? Nora and I regularly serve meals to needy people and   54     clothes for the homeless. Yet, as I’ve    55     her grow over these past four years, I still wonder—which of us has benefited more?

One day a very wealthy father took his son on a trip to the country with the firm purpose of showing his son how poor people can be.
They spent a couple of days and nights on the farm of  which  would be considered a very poor family. On their  return  from their trip, the father asked his son, “ How was the trip?”
“It was  great , Dad .”
“Did you see how poor people can be?” the father asked.
“Oh yeah?” said the son.
“So what did you  learn  from the trip?” asked the father.
The son answered, “I saw that we have one dog and they have four. We have a pool that  reaches  to the middle of our garden and they have a creek (小溪) that has  no  end. We have lanterns in our garden and they have the  stars  at night. We have a  small  piece of land to live on and they have fields that go  beyond  our sight. We have servants who serve us, but they serve  themselves . We buy our food, but they grow theirs. We have  walls  around our property（財產(chǎn)） to protect us but they have friends to protect them.”
With this the boy’s father was  speechless .
Then his son  added , “Dad, thank you for showing me how  poor  we are.”
Too many times we  forget  what we have and concentrate on what we don’t have. What is one person’s  priceless  object is another’s prize possession. It’s all  decided  on one’s perspective (視角). Think about what would happen if we all gave  thanks  for what we have,  instead of  worrying about what we don’t have.
Be thankful for every single thing in your life, exactly as it is now–and  especially  your friends. Be sure to take the time to express your appreciation and gratitude for the people whom you are close to.

科目：高中英語 來源：不詳 題型：閱讀理解

    Little Tommy was doing very badly in math. His parents had tried everything -- tutors, cards, special learning centers -- in short, everything they could think of. Finally they took Tommy to a catholic(天主教的) school.
After the first day, little Tommy came home with a very serious look on his face. He didn't kiss his mother hello. Instead, he went straight to his room and started studying. Books and paper were spread(鋪開)out all over the room and little Tommy was hard at work. His mother was surprised. She called him down to dinner and as soon as he finished eating, he went back hitting the books as hard as before. This went on for some time, day after day while the mother tried to understand what was happening.
Finally, little Tommy brought home his report card. He quietly put it on the table and went up to his room and hit the books. His mother looked at it and to her surprise, little Tommy got an A in math. She could no longer hold her curiosity(好奇心). She went to his room and asked, "son, what was it? Was it the nuns(修女)?"
Little Tommy looked at her and shook his head(搖動), "No."
"Well then," she asked again. "What was it?"
Little Tommy looked at her and said, "Well, on the first day of school, when I saw that man nailed(釘) to the plus sign(加號), I knew they weren't joking."
小題1: Why did Tommy's parents send him to a catholic school?
