"One day, I damaged my desk in some   5 . I had to tell my father I had broken the rule, and had to pay five dollars or be beaten before the whole school. My father said it   __6  be too bad to have our face lost in front of the whole school. He   7  to give five dollars to hand over to the teacher. But before giving me the money he took me upstairs and give me a beating."
"But as I had had one beating and wasn't afraid of it any   8  , I decided I would take   __9 beating at school and   10  the dollars. So that was what I did. That was the first money I ever got."

Florence Nightingale（南丁格爾） was born in a rich family. When she was young she took lessons in music and drawing, and read great books. She also traveled a great deal with her mother and father. 
As a child she felt that visiting sick people was both a duty and a pleasure. She enjoyed helping them. 
At last mind was made up. “I’m going to be a nurse,” she decided. 
“Nursing isn’t the right work for a lady,” her father told her. 
“Then I will make it so, “she smiled. And she went to learn nursing in Germany and France. When she returned to England, Florence started a nursing home for home. During the Crimean War in 1854 she went with a group of thirty eight nurses to the front hospitals. What they saw there was terrible. Dirt and death were everywhere to be seen — and smelled. The officer there did not want any woman to tell him how to run a hospital, either. But the brave nurse went to work. 
Florence used her own money and some from friends to buy clothes, beds, medicine and food for the men. Her only pay was in smiles from the lips of dying soldiers. But they were more than enough for this kind woman. 
After she returned to England, she was honored for her services by Queen Victoria. But Florence said that her work had just begun. She raised money to build the Nightingale Home for Nurses in London. She also wrote a book on public health, which was printed in several countries. 
Florence Nightingale died at the age of ninety, still trying to serve others through her work as a nurse. Indeed, it is because of her that we honor nurses today.

I said, "They're on the wrong feet．”
She struggled to get the boots off and went through the joyless task of putting them on again．
"They're my brother's boots, you know," I said． "I hate them"．
Somehow, from long years of practice, she managed to act as though I wasn't an annoying（煩人的）little girl． She pushed and pushed, gently this time． With a greater sigh, seeing the end of her struggle with me，she asked, "Now, where are your mittens（連指手套）？’’

I went through a training program and became a literacy volunteer last surnmen The training
I received, though excellent, did not tell me how it was to work with a real student, however. When I began to discover what other people's lives were like because they could not read, I realized the true importance of reading.
My first student Marie was a 44-year-old single mother of three. In the first lesson, I found out she walked two miles to the nearest supermarket twice a week because she didn't know which bus to take. When I told her I would get her a bus schedule, she told me it would not help because she could not  read it. She said she also had difficulty once she got to the supermarket,because she couldn't always remember what she needed. Since she did not know words, she could not write out a shopping list. Also, she could only recognize items by sight, so if the product had a different label, she would not recognize it as the product she wanted.
As we worked together, learning how to read built Marie's self-confidence,which encouraged her to continue her studies. She began to make rapid progress and was even able to take the bus to the supermarketelt. After this successful trip, she reported how self-confident she felt. At the end of the program, she began helping her youngest son,Tony, a shy first grader with his reading. She sat with him before he went to sleep and together they would read bedtime stories. When his eyes became wide with excitement as she read, pride was written all over her face. As she described this experience, I was proud of myself as well. I found that helping Marie to build her self-confidence was more rewarding than anything I had ever done before.
As a literacy volunteer, I learned a great deal about teaching and helping others. In fact, I may have learned more from the experience than Marie did.
小題1:What did the author do last summer?
A．She worked in the supermarket

D．She went to a training program to help a literacy volunteer
小題2:Why didn’t Marie go to the supermarket by bus at first?
A．Because she liked to walk to the supermarket

At the onset of a northern winter, many dream of warmer climates.In 1934 the Canadian-born composer Colin Mcphee did more than dream. He set out for the island of Bali.
In his book A House in Bali,Colin Mcphee described how he first gained insight into the essence of Balinese music.For about a month he had been working on transcribing a complete score to a Balinese play he had seen. It seemed impossible that so much beauty could be achieved with a scale(音階)of only five tones.
But the distinctive embellishments(修飾音)of the music eluded him.Fortunately a young household helper and his friend decided to assist. One morning they set two objects next to Mcphee’s piano.They were gangas--metal keyed instruments.The two boys played them in what struck Mcphee as”a fast duet(二重奏） in Morse code”.
At last the composer had found the key to Balinese music.“Wait!” Mcphee would call out from the piano as the boys flew along,“Stop!Please!That bit once more!”
Patiently the boys would stop and began again.But soon they were flying again,faster than ever, amazing Mcphee with their memory and precision. Sometimes the patterns repeated.Sometimes they opened up into something new. Then, suddenly the whole duet would fly apart and the boys would burst out laughing,breaking the spell.
Although Colin Mcphee left the island in 1939,he remained spellbound by Balinese music.And its rich,distinctive sound would colour many of the compositions he would write for the next quarter century.
小題1:From the passage we can learn that_______________________.
A．Colin Mcphee set foot on the island of Bali in late winter
B．The book A House in Bali detailed how Colin Mcphee understood the life of the island
C．Colin Mcphee actually acquired much beauty of Balinese music
D．For a month Colin Mcphee had been watching a Balinese play he had seen before
小題2:The word “eluded” in the third paragraph can be replaced by________________.
A．a(chǎn)ttractedB．shockedC．disappointedD．puzzled
小題3:Colin Mcphee was astonished because________________________.
A．the two locals played part of Balinese music once more unwillingly
B．Colin Mcphee eventually found the key to Balinese music
C．The two boys played their instruments so precisely and skillfully
D．The Balinese music displayed something new for Colin Mcphee
小題4:The passage is mainly about_______________________.
A．a(chǎn) book introducing the island of Bali
B．two Balinese boys playing gangas
C．a(chǎn) composer named Colin Mcphee
D．Balinese music touching Colin Mcphee
