My mum would buy the 32 for me because I 33 the prize that came with it. The prize was a pair of glasses that Gordon 34 .
However, in order to get the prize I had to 35 the whole box of biscuits out because it was at the 36 . I didn’t dare to think of 37 my way to the prize because I was too 38 . Yes, I wanted to be like Flash Gordon! 39 the glasses came out from the bottom, I put them on. I felt like my favorite 40 . I wore them everywhere my mum and I went. I even tried to wear them to 41, but the teachers didn’t want a super-hero flying around the playground.
Over the years there were other prizes from many 42 brands（牌子）of biscuits, but I was never really 43 the biscuits, only the 44 .
When you think about it, 45 itself can be like a box of biscuits. Even as adults, we keep 46 that prize at all costs. Just 47 what we do at times. We become greedy（貪婪的）to get what we think is the prize.
Try to look at it from a different view. Wouldn’t it be better to 48 the journey along the way ? In other words, don’t be impatient and pour the box. That will only spoil（破壞）the 49 meaning of the prize. Enjoy what you have and be grateful. I promise your prize will 50 , without having to push others out of the way to get it.

Friendship is one of the basic bonds (紐帶) between human beings. While the characteristics of friendship might vary from one country to another, people from all cultures not only enjoy friends but need them.
　　Many studies have shown that teenagers who have no friends often suffer from psychological disorders. It has been shown that teenagers, perhaps more than any other age group, need companionship and a sense of belonging. The negative consequences of loneliness have also been observed among the elderly. The death of a spouse often leaves a widow or a widower totally bereft (失去). If, however, they are surrounded by friends and relatives and if they are able to articulate（清楚表達(dá)） their feelings, they are more likely to recover from their grief.
　　“No man is an island.” In other words, we are all parts of society. We all need the love, admiration, respect and moral support of other people. If we are fortunate, our friends will provide us with all of these necessary aspects of life.
　　As most people observe, there are many levels of friendship. The degree or intensity of friendship varies depending on the personality of the individuals involved and the context of the relationships. Extroverts (性格外向者) enjoy being surrounded by many people whereas introverts（性格內(nèi)向者）are perhaps content with fewer but more intense friendships.
　　Everyone is not equally open with all their friends. The degree of intimacy (密切) is determined by many factors. Close friends can be formed at any stage in one’s life but they are usually very rare. Not very many people have more than a few really close friends. Irrespective of the level of intimacy, all friendships are based on reciprocity（相互性）, honesty and a certain amount of love and affection.
小題1:The second paragraph implies that _____..
A．teenagers without friends will suffer from psychological problems
B．a(chǎn) widow or a widower will die very soon without companionship
C．human beings need companionship and a sense of belonging
D．both A and B
小題2:The degree of intimacy of friendship mainly depends on _____ .
A．a(chǎn)ge B．belongingC．personality D．culture
小題3:The author thinks that close friends _____ .
A．can be easily formed when one is young
B．cannot be long-lasting
C．a(chǎn)re not rare for everyone
D．a(chǎn)re rare for most people
小題4:The word “irrespective”(Last sentence, Para. 5) means _____ .
A．not respecting B．dishonoringC．regardless D．Considering

The sun shines brightly as I leave school, get into my car, and head for Bradley Hospital. This year, as a senior at Seekonk High School, I have been given the opportunity to leave the usual classroom setting once a week to volunteer.
I   21  to spend this valuable time working with mentally disabled children at Bradley Children’s Hospital. I work   22  a teacher in the outpatient/pre-school section, in a classroom with two children— a classroom very different from   23  I have ever known. The difference of this classroom is   24  the children have been diagnosed with a mental disease. One child is autistic and non-verbal（自閉和不說(shuō)話的）, using supportive   25 . The other has a condition called PDD (one step above autism), and is   26  non-verbal. Both children require strong   27  and a lot of attention. This combination creates an atmosphere which is both demanding and sympathetic.
My   28  in the classroom is not only to help the teacher, but to become part of the children’s   29  experience.

Everyday activities, which may be taken for granted by others,   31  a lot of strength from the children. This has opened my eyes vastly.
One of the   32  reasons why I volunteer to take the work is that I desire to help those who are less   33 . However, it has also helped me to realize my competence. I now know that I have the   34  to work with the disabled. I have lost my fear, and I   35  myself a lot more.
It is true that my work is very   36 ; there are many days that I   37  Bradley exhausted emotionally and physically. There have been times when I have left on the edge of tears   38 . But pity doesn’t heal, love does. And I have grown to love these children in my own way,   39  I see them only once a week. This experience has been both rewarding and satisfying. I’ve learned also that I do have the ability to make a difference in their lives, no matter how small it may be. One smile makes it all   40 .

Wishing to encourage her young son to make more progress on the piano, a mother took her boy to a Paderewski concert. After they were seated, the mother spotted a friend in the audience and walked down the aisle to greet her. Seizing the opportunity to explore the wonders of the concert hall, the little boy rose and eventually found his way through a door marked “NO ADMITTANCE.” When the house lights dimmed and the concert was about to begin, the mother returned to her seat and discovered that the child was missing.
Suddenly, the curtains parted and spotlights focused on the impressive Steinway on stage. To her horror, the mother saw her little boy sitting at the keyboard, innocently picking out Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star.
At that moment, the great pianist made his entrance, quickly moved to the piano, and whispered in the boy’s ear, “Don’t quit. Keep playing.” Then leaning over, Paderewski reached down with his left hand and began filling in a bass part. Soon his right arm reached around to the other side of the child and he added a melody. Together, the old master and the young beginner transformed a frightening situation into a wonderfully creative experience. The audience was amazed and, as it finished, they cheered.
That’s the way it is in life. What we can accomplish on our own is hardly noteworthy. We try our best, but the results aren’t exactly graceful flowing music. But when we put our trust in the hands of a Greater Power, our life’s work can be truly beautiful. Next time you set out to accomplish great feats, listen carefully. You can hear the voice of the Master, whispering in your ear, “Don’t quit, and keep playing.”
小題1:The reason why the boy went to the piano was that ________.
A．he was encouraged to explore
B．his mother forced him to have a look
C．he was invited by the pianist
D．he was exploring the concert hall
小題2:What the famous pianist did at the beginning of the concert showed ________.
A．what a great pianist he was
B．what a skilled pianist he was
C．what an upright man he was
D．what a strong man he was
小題3:What did the author really want to tell us in the last paragraph?
A．Not being interrupted by others is important.
B．Life needs one’s own effort combined with guidance and cooperation.
C．It is necessary for us to keep doing everything.
D．It is important for us to get help from a famous person.

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：不詳 題型：閱讀理解

Impossible cases are not forever. While it is impossible for one person, it is possible for another. In a word, everything is possible.
Someone says, “Success belongs to those who can look at the complex challenges offered by the world as inspiration.” So your challenges are golden opportunities for success. How can there be miracles if there are no obstacles? How will you chase the storm if there is no storm? You need challenges to reveal your ability. Success doesn’t come out of nothing; success comes from the problems you face. Those who refuse to give in come out smiling.
Robert X. Perez says, “The seeds of success spring from failure’s ashes.” Failure is not defeat; it is the pointer to do better than what you just did. You have to know that you are in a constant study of life. What you face is for your training. Samuel Aidoo says, “Each failure is simply another chapter in the story of our lives. To fail is to understand what not to do. Remember it and don’t give up until your goal is achieved.”
What do you do when you face difficulty? Yeah, life is difficult, but you do not give up. Have a positive and calm outlook on your circumstances(狀況) and make the best of them. You may learn something new. You can develop mental toughness. Mental toughness means to be able to see the long-term gains rather than be put off by short-term pains. Once you have this toughness, you have the winning edge(優(yōu)勢(shì)).
The only things in life you ever really regret are the chances you didn’t take. You will regret when you see the consequences of not seizing the opportunities when they arose. Take chances every day!
小題1:The main point of the passage is that  ____________.
A．success comes out of nothing
B．never give up and you may achieve success
C．everything is easy to deal with
D．impossible things do not exist
小題2: According to the author, success often comes to people who  ____________.
A．have good opportunitiesB．face failureC．don’t fear difficultiesD．have a lot of luck
小題3:Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A．We can perform miracles by overcoming difficulty.
