English was always my favorite subject. In my freshman year of high school, I could write a killer composition. In my second year, my  36  allowed me to give spelling tests to the class. I had wonderful  37  of my junior year. Mrs. Alexander 38  me to sit at her desk and take over the class when she had to leave the room. Only my senior English class was 39 , as we had a teacher right out of college who expected college-level work. Every student received a “C” or “D” grade the first quarter.  40  English was still my subject.
I graduated from high school, 41 early and had children. Confident about my English, I often helped my kids with their English homework. And I  42  long articles and beautiful poetry as a columnist for a newspaper. Fifteen years later, I went to college, and because I had been an "A" student, I remained an ‘‘A” student. I  43  up to my own expectations.
Yesterday, I  44  my high school report cards when I was reading old papers. That bundle of report cards  45  back the old days. I remembered sitting in my advisor's office，explaining that I had always excelled at English, and  46  that I did not deserve a “D” from that  47  teacher of my senior year. The advisor was sympathetic but unable to change a (an) 48
Reading  49  my old report cards revealed something else too. I wanted to tore them or hide them. I was not an ‘‘A” student in high school English！Somehow, I had  50  myself of this，when the grades clearly reflected an  51  student with an occasional “ A ” or ‘‘ B” but mostly “C” s.
Had I lived up to those grades and  52  myself according to those letters，I would have never confidently sought my writing  53  . Had I believed in my early grades instead of myself，I would have allowed my fear of  54  to defeat my enthusiasm and damage my creativity.  55 ，I viewed my younger self as an “A” English student, except for that undeserved “D”.

On a number of drives throughout my childhood, my mother would suddenly pull over the car to examine a flower by the side of the road or rescue a beetle from tragedy while I, in my late teens and early twenties, sat impatiently in the car.
Though Mother’s Day follows Earth Day, for me, they have always been related to each other. My mom has been “green” since she became concerned about the environment. Part of this habit was born of thrift (節(jié)儉). Like her mother and her grandmother before her, mom saves glass jars, empty cheese containers and reuses her plastic bags.
Mom creates a kind of harmonious relationship with wildlife in her yard. She knows to pick the apples on her trees a little early to avoid the bears and that if she leaves the bird feeders(給食器) out at night, it is likely that they will be knocked down by a family of raccoons (浣熊). Spiders that make their way into the house and are caught in juice glasses will be set loose in the garden.
I try to teach my children that looking out for the environment starts with being aware of the environment. On busy streets, we look for dandelions (蒲公英) to fly in the wind; we say hello to neighborhood cats and pick up plastic cups and paper bags. This teaching comes easily, I realize, because I was taught so well by example. Mom didn’t need to lecture; she didn’t need to beat a drum to change the world. She simply slowed down enough to enjoy living in it and with that joy came mercy and an instinct for protection.
I am slowing down and it isn’t because of the weight of my nearly forty years on the planet, it is out of my concern for the planet itself. I’ve begun to save glass jars and reuse packing envelopes. I pause in my daily tasks to watch the squirrels race each other in the trees above my house.
Last summer, in the company of my son and daughter, I planted tomatoes in my yard. With the heat of August around me, I ate the first while sitting on my low wall with dirt on my hands. Warm from the sun, it burst on my tongue with a sweetness I immediately wanted to share with my mom.
小題1:. Why does the author say Earth Day is connected with Mother’s Day?
A．Because Mother’s Day falls shortly after Earth Day.
B．To stress that all the older women in her family are environmentalists.
C．To stress how much her mother cares about the environment.
D．Because her mother shows her how to be friendly to nature on Mother’s Day.
小題2:. Which of the following is NOT related to Mom’s “green life”?
A．Rescuing a beetle from a certain tragedy.
B．Saving glass jars, empty cheese containers.
C．Setting a caught spider free in the garden
D．Picking dandelions on busy streets.
小題3:. We can infer from the article that ______.
A．the author realizes that she should teach her children by example as well
B．the author’s mother knows how to get rid of the wildlife in her yard
C．the author believes that only by learning to slow down can we enjoy life
D．the author’s mother used to lecture her to protect the environment.
小題4:. What can be learned from the last paragraph?
A．Tomatoes make the author think of her mother.
B．The author likes eating tomatoes planted by herself.
C．Planting tomatoes is a way of protecting environment.
D．The author really appreciates her mother’s teaching.
小題5:. The writer’s attitude towards her mom’s behavior changed in the order of ______.
A．understanding — critical — approving
B．a(chǎn)pproving — doubtful — negative
C．negative — understanding — approving
D．doubtful— critical— positive

It was the afternoon of December 24, the day before Christmas; and as the newest doctor in our office, I had to work. The only thing that brightened my day was the beautifully decorated Christmas tree in our waiting room and a gift sent to me by a fellow I was dating — a dozen long-stemmed red roses.
As I was cleaning my office,  I was told a lady urgently needed to speak with me. As I stepped out, I noticed a young, tired-looking woman with a baby in her arms. Nervously, she explained that her husband — a prisoner in a nearby prison — was my next patient. She told me she wasn’t allowed to visit her husband in prison and that he had never seen his son. Her request was for me to let the boy’s father sit in the waiting room with her as long as possible before I called him for his appointment. Since my schedule wasn’t full, I agreed. After all, it was Christmas Eve.
A short time later, her husband arrived — with chains on his feet and hands, and two armed guards as bodyguards. The woman’s tired face lit up like our little Christmas tree when her husband took a seat beside her. I kept glancing out to watch them laugh, cry and share their child. After almost an hour, I called the prisoner back to my office. The patient seemed like a gentle and modest man. I wondered what he possibly could have done to be held under such conditions. I tried to make him as comfortable as possible.
At the end of the appointment, I wished him a Merry Christmas-a difficult thing to say to a man headed back to prison. He smiled and thanked me. He also said he felt saddened by the fact he hadn’t been able to get his wife anything for Christmas. On hearing this, I was inspired with a wonderful idea.
I’ll never forget the look on both their faces as the prisoner gave his wife the beautiful, long-stemmed roses. I’m not sure who experienced the most joy — the husband in giving, the wife in receiving, or myself in having the opportunity to share in this special moment.
小題1:What can be inferred from the first paragraph?
A．The writer was a newcomer to her office.
B．A fellow sent her a dozen red roses as Christmas present.
C．She was in low spirits because she had to work before Christmas.
D．She was at work with a light heart.
小題2:The young woman came to the writer’s office for the purpose of         .
A．having her baby examined
B．giving her husband a chance to make his escape
C．having her husband examined
D．getting a chance for her family to get together
小題3:The underlined part in paragraph 3 most probably means “        ”
A．to be sent to hospitalB．to be separated from his family
C．to be comfortableD．to become a prisoner
小題4:What does the writer learn from the story?
A．The wife experienced the most joy in receiving
B．An act of kindness can mean a lot
C．The prisoner was treated with mercy
D．Whoever breaks the law should be punished

A month after Hurricane Katrina, I returned home in New Orleans. There lay my house, reduced towaist-high ruins, smelly and dirty.
Before the trip, I’d had my car fixed. When the office employee of the garage was writing up the bill，she noticed my Louisiana license plate. “You from New Orleans?”she asked I said I was, “No charge.”She said, and firmly shook her head when I reached for my wallet. The next day I went for a haircut, and the same thing happened.
As my wife was studying in Florida, we decided to move there and tried to find a rental house that we could afford while also paying off a mortgage (抵押貸款〉on our mined house. We looked at many places, but none was satisfactory. We’d began to accept that we*d have to live in extremely reduced circumstances for a while, when I got a very curious e-mail from a James Kemmedy in California. He’d read some pieces I’d written about our sufferings for State, the online magazine  and wanted to give us (""no conditions attached’）a new house across thelake from New Orleans.
It sounded too good to be true, but I replied, thanking him for his exceptional generosity, that we had no plan to go back. Then a poet at the University of Florida offered to let his house to me, while he went to England on his one-year paid leave. The rent was rather reasonable. I mentioned the poet’s offer to James Kemdedy, and the next day he sent a check covering our entire rent for eight months.
Throughout this painful experience, the kindness of strangers has done much to bring back my faith in humanity. It’s almost worth losing your worldly possessions to be reminded that people are really nice when given half a chance.
小題1:The garage employee’s attitude toward the author was that of          
A．unconcernB．sympathy
C．doubtD．tolerance
小題2:What do we know about James Kemnedy?
A．He was a writer of an online magazine.
B．He was a poet at the University of Florida
C．He offered the author a new house free of charge.
D．He learned about the author’s sufferings via e-mail
小題3:It can be inferred from the text that         
A．the author’s family was in financial difficulty
B．rents were comparatively reasonable despite the disaster
C．houses were difficult to find in the hurricane-stricken area
D．the mortgage on the ruined house was paid off by the bank
小題4:The author learned from his experience that         
A．worldly possessions can be given up when necessary
B．generosity should be encouraged in some cases
C．people benefit from their sad stories
D．human beings are kind after all.

Pulling heavy suitcases all day in the summer is hard work, especially when you're a thin 14-year-old.That was me in 1940-the youngest and smallest baggage boy at New York City's Pennsyl-vania Railway Station.
After just a few days on the job, I began noticing that the other fellows were overcharging passengers. I'd like to join them, thinking, "Everyone else is doing it."
When I got home that night, I told my dad what I wanted to do." You give an honest day's work," he said, looking at me straight in the eye."  They're paying you. If they want to do that, you let them do that."
I followed my dad's advice for the rest of that summer and have lived by his words ever since.
Of all the jobs I've had, it was my experience at Pennsylvania Railway Station that has stuck with me. Now I teach my players to have respect for other people and their possessions. Being a member of a team is a totally shared experience. If one person steals, it destroys trust and hurts everyone. I can put up with many things, but not with people who steal. If one of my players were caught stealing, he'd be gone.
Whether you're on a sports team, in an office or a member of a family, if you can't trust one another, there's going to be trouble. 
小題1:What can be inferred about the baggage boys? 
A．They could earn much, but they had to work hard.
B．Many of them earned money in a dishonest way.
C．They were all from poor families.
D．They were all thin, young boys.
小題2:What does the father's advice imply?
A．It is wrong to give more pay to the passengers.
B．Don't believe them if they are paying you more.
C．Don't follow others to overcharge the passengers.
D．It is difficult to work hard and live as an honest boy.
小題3:The writer can't put up with stealing because he thinks that ______. 
A．it is a totally shared experience
B．it is considered as the most dangerous
C．it does great harm to human relationship
D．it may lead to the loss of his sports team
小題4:It can be concluded from the text that ______. 
A．his father's advice helped him to decide which job to take up
B．working in the sports team was his most important experience
C．he learnt much from his shared experience with his team members
D．his experience as a baggage boy had a great influence on his later life

Embroidering(刺繡)
When I was a little boy living in New York, my mother used to embroider a great deal. I would sit at her knee and look up from the    36    and ask what she was doing. She   37  me that she was embroidering. I told her that it looked like a mess from where I was. As from the underside I watched her work within the    38  of the little round hoop（鐵環(huán)）that she held in her hand, I complained to her that it sure looked   39   from where I sat.
She would smile at me, look down and  40   say, "My son, you go about your    41   for a while, and when I am finished with my embroidering, I will put you on my    42   and let you see it from my side."
I would wonder why she was using some dark threads along with the    43   ones and why they seemed so jumbled（混亂的）from my   44  . A few minutes would pass and then I would hear Mother's voice say, " Son, come and sit on my knee." This I did only to be  surprised and    45  to see a beautiful flower or a sunset. I could not    46  it, because from underneath it looked so messy.
Then mother would    47   to me, "My son, from underneath it did look messy and jumbled, but you did not realize that there was a   48  plan on the top. It was a    49   . I was only following it. Now look at it from my side    50   you will see what I was doing."
Many    51    through the years, I have    52   up to my Heavenly Father and said, “ Father, what are You doing? ” He    53   , “ I am embroidering your    54  . ”I say, " But it looks like a mess to me. It seems so jumbled. The threads seem so dark. Why can't they all be bright ? " The Father seems to tell me, " My child, you go about your business of doing My business, and one day I will bring you to    55   and put you on my knee and you will see the plan from My side. "
