Like all other mothers who have small children, I, too, have to steal time-from my own children at home and from the children who know me as their teacher-just to put a few words down on paper. Many times I’ve wanted to write for myself, for other women, for my parents, for my husband, and especially for my children. I would have liked to leave a legacy (遺產(chǎn)) of words explaining what it has meant to have twins. One reason that there is not a great deal written about being a mother of a new baby is that there is seldom a moment to think of anything else but the baby’s needs.
With twins, I did not have a spare hand to write with.
Before my twins were born, my days were long and I had nothing to write about. After the twins’ birth I did have something to write about, but I found myself facing not a pen and paper but milk bottles.
Some nights, friends would visit. They would leave at 11 p.m., heading for bed, and for us the night was only just beginning. With twins, there is really no night. Each feeding lasts a long time. At 1:00 a.m., each of them would begin crying from hunger. At 4:00am, when I finally put them down, I felt exhausted.
Two years have passed since then and we’ve managed to live through it all. My days are still very full and even now there isn’t one evening when I put the twins down for the night that I don’t have a break. At last a little time for myself.
小題1:When did the writer have time but she didn’t feel like writing anything?
A．Before the birth of her twins.
B．When she faced bottles of milk.
C．After her friends visited her home.
D．When she had to think about the babies’ needs.
小題2:What does the writer mainly write about?
A．Her role as a wife. B．Her work as a writer.
C．Her experience as a mother. D．Her feeling as a woman.
小題3:Why did the writer say the night was just beginning (in the 4th paragraph)?
A．Because her friends left her house too late.
B．Because she started to take care of the twins even at night.
C．Because her babies often cried and she woke up.
D．Because she could not sleep till four in the morning.
小題4: This passage is probably from a(n) _________.
A．blog B．newspaper C．guidebook D．a(chǎn)dvertisement
小題5: What can we learn from the passage?
A．The writer was unhappy because of no time for writing.
B．The writer cared about her babies more than her own interests.
C．The writer hated to be a mother of twins.
D．The writer could steal a little time at night.

If you plan on visiting to Fiji, you are probably looking for some fun things to do. Below are four unusual places.
The Poseidon Resort
The Poseidon resort is an underwater resort that gives visitors a beautiful view of sea life. This resort covers 255 acres. It’s covered and surrounded by a lagoon (咸水湖) that covers 5,000 acres and is about 90 feet under water, giving you a beautiful view of sea life right before your eyes. This resort even has a hotel for those who would prefer to have the unusual experience of sleeping and waking up to the beautiful scenery all around them.
The Sabeto Mud Pool
If you’re looking for something unusual to do, you can’t pass up the mud pool at Sabeto. It is located in a mountain range with a huge group of Geothermal (地熱的) pools full of nice, warm mud. Getting down and into the mud in the pool is believed to have benefits for healthy skin. This is unusual, but adults and especially kids will love it.
Fire Walking
Fire walking in Fiji is believed to have originated on the island of Beau. Fire walking is when you walk on white-hot stones barefoot. To do this, you have to be mentally prepared for it. Trust me; there is a lot of preparation and strict rules that travelers follow in order to do this safely.
The Fiji Museum
The Fiji museum is unusual due to all the amazing artifacts you’ll see dating back 3,000-4,000 years. This museum has a certain attraction that makes it funny—a shoe. It’s been said that a man named Thomas Baker was eaten by the locals several centuries ago and the only thing left was his shoe. This unusual museum is a great idea if you bring the whole family to Fiji.
小題1:Visitors who have the unusual experience of sleeping at the Poseidon resort can _________.

In Western countries people have been using the installment (分期付款) plan since the first half of the twentieth century. Today, a large number of families in Great Britain buy furniture, household goods and cars by installments. In the U.S.A.,the figure is much higher than in Great Britain, and people there spend over 10 percent of their income on the installment plan.
The price of an article bought on installments is always higher than the price that would be paid by cash. There is a charge for interest. The buyer pays one quarter or one third of the price as a down payment (預付定金) when the goods are delivered to him. He then makes regular payments, weekly or monthly, until the full price is paid up. The legal ownership of the goods remains with the seller until the final payment has been made.
Installment buying has advantages and disadvantages. It can help couples with small incomes to furnish their homes and start housekeeping. It increases the demand for goods, and in this way helps business and employment,There is,
however, the danger that when business is bad, installment buying may end suddenly, making business much worse. This may result in a great increase in unemployment.
If the people on the installment plan lose their jobs, they will probably not be able to make their payments. If great numbers of people are not able to pay their installment debts, there is a possibility that businessmen cannot collect their debts and will therefore lose money. If businessmen lose money or fail to make a satisfactory profit,it becomes more likely to have a depression (蕭條). This is why, in some countries,the government controls the installment plan by fixing the amount of the down payment and installments to discourage people from buying more than they can pay for on the installment plan.
小題1: Which of the following is NOT TRUE about the installment plan?
A．A lot of British families use the installment plan. "
B．More than 10 percent of American families buy things on installments.
C．Americans depend more on installment than British people do.
D．Americans spend one tenth of their income on installment buying.
小題2: Goods bought on installments are more expensive than goods bought by cash because_______.
A．the buyer has to pay extra money as interest
B．the delivery of the goods charges extra money
C．the buyer has to pay adown payment
D．the service offered by installment plan charged extra money
小題3: What will happen to a buyer if he fails to make the full payment for an item bought on installments?
A．He might lose his job.
B．He will stop owning the item he has bought.
C．He will have to setl what he has bought.
D．He will go into debt.
小題4: The advantage of installment buying might include all the following EXCEPT that________.
A．purchasing power is strengthened
B．employment might be increased
C．people develop a good habit of saving money
D．young couples are able to furnish their homes
小題5:In some countries, the governments control the installment plan to_______.
A．increase employment
B．a(chǎn)void depressions
C．ensure that businesses make good profits
D．ensure that people can pay for what they buy

In this modern world, we rush around all day, doing things, talking, sending and reading messages. We are always on, always connected, always thinking, always talking. There is no 36 for stillness.
And when we are 37 to be still because we’re in line for something, or waiting at a doctor’s appointment, or on a bus or train, we often  38 something to do. Some will play with mobile devices, other will read something. Being still isn’t something we’re 39.
This comes at a   40 : we lose that time for  41 , for observing and listening. We lose peace.
And   42 yet: sometimes too much action is worse than no action at all. You can run around crazily, but get  43 done.
Take a moment to think about  44 you spend your days. Are you constantly rushing around? Are you constantly reading and answering  45 checking on the news and the latest stream of information? Are you always  46 through your schedule?
Is this how you want to spend your  47 ? If so, peace be with you. If not, take a moment to be   48 . Don’t think about what you have to do, or what you’ve done already.   49 be in the moment.
Then after a minute or two of doing that, consider your life, and how you’d  50 it to be. See your life with less move anent, less doing, less rushing. See it with more stillness, more consideration, more  51 .
Then be that vision.
It’s pretty simple: all you have to do is sit still for a little bit each day.   52 you’re gotten used to that, try doing less each day. Breathe when you feel yourself moving too  53 . slow down. Be present. Find happiness now, in this moment, instead of   54 for it.

When milk arrived on the doorstep
When I was a boy growing up in New Jersey in the 1960s, we had a milkman delivering milk to our doorstep. His name was Mr. Basille. He wore a white cap and drove a white truck. As a 5-year-old boy, I couldn’t take my eyes off the coin changer fixed to his belt. He noticed this one day during a delivery and gave me a quarter out of his coin changer.
Of course, he delivered more than milk. There was cheese, eggs and so on. If we needed to change our order, my mother would pen a note----“Please add a bottle of buttermilk next delivery”----and place it in the box along with the empty bottles. And then, the buttermilk would magically appear.
All of this was about more than convenience. There existed a close relationship between families and their milkmen. Mr. Basille even had a key to our house, for those times when it was so cold outside that we put the box indoors, so that the milk wouldn’t freeze. And I remember Mr. Basille from time to time taking a break at our kitchen table, having a cup of tea and telling stories about his delivery.
There is sadly no home milk delivery today. Big companies allowed the production of cheaper milk, thus making it difficult for milkmen to compete. Besides, milk is for sale everywhere, and it may just not have been practical to have a delivery service.
Recently, I saw an old milk box in the countryside. I took it home and planted it on the back porch （門廊）. Every so often my son’s friends will ask what it is. So I start telling stories of my boyhood, and of the milkman who brought us friendship along with his milk.
小題1:Mr. Basille gave the boy a quarter out of his coin changer____.
A．to show his magical power
B．to pay for the delivery
C．to satisfy his curiosity
D．to please his mother
小題2:What does “this” in the third paragraph refer to?
A．The milkman’s magic power
B．The milkman’s kindness to me
C．The note to change an order
D．The home delivery service
小題3:What can be inferred from the fact that the milkman had the key to the boy’s house?
A．He wanted to have tea there.
B．He was a respectable person.
C．He was treated as a family member.
D．He was fully trusted by the family.
小題4:Why does home milk delivery no longer exist?
A．Nobody wants to be a milkman now.
B．It has been driven out of the market.
C．Its service is getting poor.
D．It is forbidden by law.
小題5:Why did the author bring back home an old milk box?
A．He missed the good old days.
B．He wanted to tell interesting stories.
C．He missed it for his milk bottles.
D．He planted flowers in it.

A company advertised in the newspaper for a sales position. Details of the requirements, salary and benefits were given. It was also clearly stated that applicants needed to take an aptitude test (能力傾向測試) and an interview. However, looking at the whole advertisement, one could not find any contact information of the company.
Most interested applicants thought that it was the company’s HR department’s carelessness or a printing error. They therefore waited patiently for the newspaper to publish an amendment(訂正). But instead of waiting for the newspaper to publish the company details, another three applicants took the initiative(主動性) to find out the company’s contact information themselves.
Tim did a search on the Internet. By typing the company’s name, he easily obtained all the information including its contact number. Lisa called up the local telephone number search service and found out the company’s office number. She called up the office and got the required contact information. Donna put in a greater effort in her search. She remembered seeing a poster by the same company in the city so she drove all the way down and made a few rounds to search for it. She finally found it together with the company’s contact information.
Three days after that advertisement was published in the newspaper, most interested applicants were still waiting eagerly for an amendment. On the other hand, the application letters and resumes of Tim, Lisa and Donna had already reached the hands of the company’s HR manager. They were then called up for an interview. During the interview, all went well and immediately they were hired. The three of them were a little surprised at how fast things went on. They were expecting for an aptitude test as stated in the advertisement. The HR director answered them, smiling, “Our test is hidden in the advertisement itself. To be a good salesperson in this age, he or she has to be broad-minded and very importantly, does not follow rigid (死板的) steps or rules. You are all clever. In a short time, you’ve managed to find ways of contacting us. It shows clearly that you have passed the test with flying colors!”
The fools sit around waiting for their chances whereas the wise actively take actions with great initiative.
小題1:According to the passage the company wanted to test the applicants’ ______.
A．sales skillsB．carefulnessC．a(chǎn)ttitudeD．initiative
小題2: Whose search skill is the easiest of all?
A．Tim’s.B．Lisa’s.C．Donna’s.D．None.
小題3:What can we infer from the passage?
A．The HR manager of the company made a mistake.
B．The company meant to omit (遺漏) its contact information.
C．The HR manager of the company was unfit for his / her job.
D．A printing error occurred in the advertisement in the newspaper.
小題4:Which of the statements is NOT correct according to the passage?
A．Many applicants thought the company made a mistake.
B．The advertisement was very special to many applicants.
C．Whoever found the company’s contact information didn’t need to have an interview.
D．The company needed broad-minded and clever salespersons.
小題5:The writer wants to tell us through this passage that ______.
A．no contact information seen in an advertisement might not be the company’s mistake
B．a(chǎn)pplicants should be careful not to be fooled by the company’s advertisement
C．opportunity always belongs to whoever is active and broad-minded
D．there are many successful chances to be found in this age
