Tsai Chin Chung is one of Taiwan’s most famous cartoonists, and his cartoons are enjoyed by people in many different countries in Asia. His books of cartoons have now become best sellers in Singapore, Malaysia, and even Japan.
As soon as he could hold a pencil, Tsai Chin Chung lived only for drawing. Every day he practised drawing people and things around him and from his favorite stories.
When he was only 15 years old, he left home to work for a publisher in Taipei. He worked hard to draw pictures for books. Two years later, he left his job and started to work on drawing cartoon series, which he liked better. He made up his mind to succeed as a cartoonist.
Now Tsai Chin Chung has achieved something unusual for a modern cartoonist. He has become extremely successful at changing Chinese literature (文學) and philosophy (哲學) into humorous comic stories. In this way, he has made the Chinese classics (古典文學) known to thousands of people.
Because of his great achievement, several years ago Tsai Chin Chung was given a prize as one of the 10 Outstanding Young People of Taiwan. Since then, he has won many prizes, and his cartoons have become popular throughout Asia, America and Europe. So far, he has published more than 20 comic books. Ten of these are about ancient Chinese philosophers based on Chinese historical and literary classics.  
Many of Tsai Chin Chung’s books of cartoons and comics have now been published in English in countries like Singapore.

I will never forget the year I was about twelve years old. My mother told us that we would not be   36  Christmas gifts because there was not enough money. I felt sad and thought, “What would I say when the other kids asked what I’d   37 ?” Just when I started to   38  that there would not be a Christmas that year, three women   39  at our house with gifts for all of us. For me they brought a doll, I felt such a sense of   40  that I would no longer have to be embarrassed when I returned to school. I wasn’t   41 . Somebody had thought   42  of me to bring me a gift. 
Years later, when I stood in the kitchen of my new house, thinking how I wanted to make my   43    Christmas there special and memorable, I   44  remembered the women’s visit. I decided that I wanted to create that same feeling of   45  for as many children as I could possibly reach.
So I   46  a plan and gathered forty people from my company to help. We gathered about 125 orphans (孤兒) at the Christmas party. For every child, we wrapped colorful packages filled with toys, clothes, and school suppliers,   47  with a child’s name. We wanted all of them to know they were   48 . Before I called out their names and handed them their gifts, I   49  them that they couldn’t open their presents   50  every child had come forward. Finally the   51  they had been waiting for came as I called out, “One, two, three. Open your presents!” As the children opened their packages, their faces beamed and their bright smiles   52  up the room. The   53  in the room was obvious, and   54    wasn’t just about toys. It was a feeling –the feeling I knew   55  that Christmas so long ago when the women came to visit. I wasn’t forgotten. Somebody thought of me. I matter.

Last winter, Carol suddenly found   27  difficult to swallow. She slept a lot and was slow to wake in the morning. There was continuous pressure in her chest and   28  I saw her looking thoughtful.

Morning and afternoon, we went diving and rolled into the clear water    32  down like peas in honey. In the evenings, we spent time on the pier, watching the sun set. One of the young couples on the island wondered if we were sisters. We laughed. “Friends for 34 years,” I said. I could see by their   33  that they didn’t really understand that kind of time. We have been friends   34  than they have been alive.

Cancer has become part of our   37 . We are well aware that our bodies are temporary gifts. Not knowing what comes next means   38  is possible. Perhaps I will be hit by a truck, or my heart will stop. Life is   39  .

Dear Abby,
This is my first letter to you, although I have been reading your column for many years. I need an outside opinion.
I am a grandmother in my 70s and have just returned from visiting my daughter, her husband and their three dearly loved children--all under the age of 5--and I'm upset with some of their parenting ways.
For example: They lock the doors to their children's bedrooms at night because the children might get out of their beds and wander around the house, and we may not hear them."
If one child should get punishment, all three are punished, and if one child says a naughty
word, all three are given hot sauce (辣醬汁) in the mouth. I know these parents love their children very much, but are these ways of disciplining them wise? Please understand, it is not my aim to interfere (干涉).
--- Gram
Dear Gram,
Children's bedroom doors should not be locked. Should a flash fire break out, it would be a nightmare (噩夢).Punishing all the children when only one has earned the punishment is a good way to make them grow up to hate each other. Children who use "naughty" words should not be punished with hot sauce in the mouth-they should be taught the proper and acceptable word to use instead of the "naughty" word. 
小題1:Gram's daughter _____________.
A.is very strict with her childrenB.does not love her three children
C.always punishes her children at nightD.often gives her children hot sauce
小題2: Gram writes the letter in order to ____________.
A.disclose her daughter's ways as a mother
B.criticize her daughter's ways as a mother
C.express her anger about her daughter s ways as a mom
D.get others' opinion about her daughter's ways as a mom
小題3: Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A.Gram seems to care for her grand children very much.
B.Gram is against some of her daughter's ways as a mom.
C.Abby is for only one of Gram's daughter's ways as a mom.
D.Abby agrees with Gram about her daughter's ways as a mom.

My six-year-old granddaughter, Caitlyn, and I stopped at a Tim Horton’s shop for a blueberry cake. As we were going out of the door, a young teenage boy was coming in.
This young man had no hair on sides of his head with a set of blue spiked(豎起的)hair on top of it. One of his nostrils(鼻孔) was pierced (扎、穿), and a ring ran through the hole and a chain went across his face and was attached to a ring he was wearing in his ear. He held a skateboard under one arm and a basketball under the other.
Caitlyn, who was walking ahead of me, stopped at once when she saw the teenager, I thought he’d scared her and she’d frozen on the spot.
I was wrong.
My granddaughter backed up against the door and opened it as wide as it would go. Now I was face to face with the young man. I stepped aside and let him pass. His response was a polite “Thank you very much”.
On our way to the car, I praised Caitlyn for her manners in holding open the door for the young man. She didn’t seem to be troubled by his appearance, but I wanted to make sure. If a grandmother’s talk about freedom of self-expression and allowing people their differences was in order, I wanted to be ready.
As it turned out, the person who needed the talk was me.
The only thing Caitlyn noticed about the teenager was the fact that his arms were full. “He would have a hard time to open the door. ”
I saw the partially shaved head, the set of spiked hair, the piercing and the chain. She saw a person carrying something under each arm and heading toward a closed door.
In the future, I hope to get down on her level and raise my sights.
小題1:What did the author think of the young man?
A.Polite. B.Uncommon.C.Frightening.D.Funny.
小題2: Caitlyn helped the young man because______ .
A.she was scaredB.she didn’t notice his look
C.she wanted to avoid himD.it would be difficult for him to open the door
小題3: The underlined sentence suggests that_______ .
A.the author was ashamed of herself
B.the author didn’t know how to give a talk on freedom
C.a talk on freedom was useless for the granddaughter
D.people should have more freedom to express themselves
小題4: The author intends to tell us that_______ .
A.we shouldn’t judge a person by his look
B.we should allow people more freedom to dress differently
C.we should be more helpful and tolerant(寬容的)to people
D.we shouldn’t be too particular about people in life

He's an old cobbler (修鞋匠) with a shop in the Marais, a historic area in Paris.When I took him my shoes, he at first told me: "I haven't time.Take them to the other fellow on the main street; he'll fix them for you right away."
But I'd had my eye on his shop for a long time. Just looking at his bench loaded with tools and pieces of leather, I knew he was a skilled craftsman (手藝人). "No," I replied, "The other fellow can't do it well."
"The other fellow" was one of those shopkeepers who fix shoes and make keys "while-U-wait" -- without knowing much about mending shoes or making keys. They work carelessly, and when they have finished sewing back a sandal strap (鞋帶) ,you might as well just throw away the pair.
My man saw I wouldn't give in, and he smiled. He wiped his hands on his blue apron (圍裙), looked at my shoes, had me write my name on one shoe with a piece of chalk and said, "Come back in a week."
I was about to leave when he took a pair of soft leather boot off a shelf.
"See what I can do " he said with pride. "Only three of us in Paris can do this kind of work."
When I got back out into the street, the world seemed brand-new to me. He was something out of an ancient legend, an old craftsman with his way of speaking familiarly, his pride in his craft.
These are times when nothing is important but the bottom line, when you can do things any old way as long as it "pays", when, in short, people look on work as a path to ever-increasing consumption (消費) rather than a way to realize their own abilities. In such a period,it is a rare comfort to find a cobbler who gets his greatest satisfaction from pride in a job well done.
小題1:Which of the following is true about the old cobbler?
A.He was equipped with the best repairing tools.
B.He was the only cobbler in the Marais.
C.He was proud of his skills.
D.He was a native Parisian.
小題2:The sentence "He was something out of an ancient legend." ( paragraph 7 ) implies that         .
A.nowadays you can hardly find anyone like him
B.it was difficult to communicate with this man
C.the man was very strange
D.the man was too old
小題3:According to the author, many people work just to        .
A.realize their abilities B.gain happiness
C.make money D.gain respect
小題4:This story wants to tell us that      .
A.craftsmen make a lot of money B.whatever you do, do it well
C.craftsmen need self-respect D.people are born equal
