My baby Rob, the youngest of my three sons, was starting kindergarten. I had already 36 this twice before, but this time it was more difficult.
What if he was scared? What if he missed me? I decided to do the grown-up thing and not tell him how I 37. I assured him that 38 would be just fine. 
The night 39 school started, Rob and I sat down. I hugged him and asked if he had any questions about what he could expect tomorrow ... “I’m 40 excited, Mommy, but I’m a little 41 about what I should do 42 I miss you,” he said sheepishly (膽怯地).
I had just the 43 for him.
I 44 my hand and showed him a new, shiny penny. “This is a 45 magic penny. If you’re scared or if you 46 me, just put your hand in your pocket and 47 this lucky penny. 48 you hold it and 49 me, I will know and be thinking about you , too.”
It was absolutely 50. I’d be thinking about him every minute.
The next day as he 51 his schoolroom, he looked back at me. My baby looked so sure of himself. I smiled back at him and hoped that he didn’t see the 52 in my eyes.
The hours moved slowly but finally it was time to pick him 53. “I had a great day!” he 54. “There were a few times I was worried, but I held on to my lucky penny and that made me feel better.”
After about a week I found it on his dresser.  I guessed he was secure enough in his new situation that he didn’t 55 it anymore.
I, on the other hand, kept it in my pocket for a few more days.

I came to India a year ago to find a village in which I could live and write but it was many months before I settled down happily in this Himalayan community.
I wasted a lot of time looking for the “typical” village. Yet no such thing exists. Conditions are quite different from village to village. But the villages I stayed in had much in common---poor, dirty and backward. Often the villagers themselves were puzzled and doubtful. Why had I come? I had put aside my work as a political journalist because my ideas had changed. I had come to believe that what was happening in the Third World was more important than anything else. But to understand how three—quarters of the world population live, and what effect their future might have on ours, I felt that I first had to try and share their way of life.
In the end I chose a mountain village because it was little cooler than those in the plains. I took the bus from town along a rocky road. Then came a rough walk down a steep path to the river. After this I began the climb into the hills. Whenever I stopped to catch my breath, there was a beautiful scene. After several hours’ walk the village came into sight.

小題3:Before coming to India, the writer________.
A.had been a successful politician
B.had made a decision to work for India

A.he no longer found his work interesting

In recent years many countries have been faced with the problem of how to make their workers more productive. Some experts believe that the answer is to make jobs more varied. Do more varied jobs lead to greater productivity? There is something to suggest that while variety certainly makes the worker's life more enjoyable, it does not make him work harder. So variety is not important.
Other experts feel that giving the worker freedom to do his job in his own way is important and there is no doubt that this is true. The problem is that this kind of freedom cannot easily be given in the modern factory with its complicated machinery which must be used in a fixed way. Thus while freedom of choice may be important, there is very little that can be done to achieve this.
Another important consideration is how much each worker contributes to the product he is making. In most factories the worker sees only one small part of the product. Some car factories are said to be experimenting with having many small production lines rather than a large one, so that each worker contributes more to the production of the cars on his line. It would seem then that the degree of worker contribution is important.
To what extent does more money lead to greater productivity? The workers themselves certainly think this is important, but perhaps they want more money only because the work they do is so boring. Money just lets them enjoy their spare time more. A similar argument may explain demands for shorter working hours. Perhaps if companies succeed in making workers' jobs more interesting, they will neither want more money, nor will shorter working hours be so important to them.
72. Which of the following things will not increase productivity?
A. Making jobs more varied.                 
B. Longer working hours.
C. Giving workers the freedom to do his jobs in their own way.
D. Increasing the workers' contribution to production.               
73. The last sentence in this passage means that if companies manage to make workers' jobs more interesting, _________.
A. they will want more money                    
B. they will demand shorter working hours
C. more money and shorter working hours are important    
D. more money and shorter working hours will not be so important to them
74. In this passage, the writer tells us _________.
A. how to make the workers more productive 
B. possible factors leading to greater productivity
C. more money leads to greater productivity
D. how to make workers' jobs more interesting
75. The writer of this passage is probably a _____________.
A. teacher            B. worker                 C. manager             D. physics

Congratulations! You are the Time magazine "Person of the Year".
The annual honor for 2006 went to anyone that uses or creates content on the Internet. The  magazine designed special cover-a white keyboard with a mirror for a computer screen where buyers can see their reflection- for the issue, reflecting the importance of user-generated(使用者自創(chuàng)) Internet content as a driving force in the modem world.
User-generated content on websites such as YouTube has proved the latest twist(轉(zhuǎn)折) in the Internet revolution. YouTube has attracted millions of users and earned its founders $ US1.65 billion when it was bought by Google earlier this year.
Normally, the magazine describes its person of the year not necessarily as an honor, but as "the person or persons who most affected the news and our lives, for good or for ill, and represented what was important about the year". Mr. Stengel said in an interview that to select the "Person of the Year" is to look for someone who's a symbol.
The magazine did cite(提名) 26 "People Who Mattered," from Chinese President Hu Jintao to a group of three persons that included: U.S. President Bush, Vice President Dick Cheney and former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfield.
It was not the first time that the magazine went away from naming an actual person for its
"Person of the Year". In 1966, the 25-and-under generation was cited; in 1975, American women were named; and in 1982, the computer was chosen.
In 2005, the winners were Bill and Melinda Gates and rock star Bono, who were cited for their charitable(慈善的) work aimed at reducing global poverty and improving world health.
65. "You", the Time magazine 'Person of the Year 2006', refers to________.
A. anyone who reads this magazine     B. anyone who surfs the Internet
C. anyone who knows the result of the selection  D. anyone who reads the passage
66. The fashionable character of the Internet revolution is________.
A. to search information on the Internet      B. to use the Internet to make money
C. to be cited for "Person of the Year"      D. to create content onto the Internet
67. The usual qualification of "Person of the Year" is that a person or persons must________.
A. do the most good to the world in the year    B. not live up to the expectation of the world     
C. really affect the world the most in the year  D. help the world move ahead in the year
68. Which of the following is true?
A. U.S. President Bush was cited for "Person of the Year 2006".
B. Chinese President Hu Jintao was cited for "Person of the Year 2006".
C. 'Person of the Year' must be a person or persons.
D. A rock star is unlikely to be cited for the "Person of the Year".

Writer and power chair adventurer Mary Laver has not walked for twenty years. Yet the cheerful and positive 60 year old is not only refusing to let her disability get her down ---- she is also planning to cross the length of Britain in a power wheelchair.
Getting ready for the trip is not easy. She has already run into many problems - not least officials and organizations who view her as a health and safety risk. One police officer wrote to Mary requesting:

"When you are in a power chair and it is going at eight miles an hour, believe me it feels fast … to me it is the Formula One(一級方程式賽車) chair of electric wheelchairs."
