Childish Voice
When I was a young child, my parents often told me that it was time to teach a man everything. I didn’t understand and wondered why   36   had such a big influence   37   a person. I thought I could grow up quickly to find it out as an adult.But now,   38   I come to knock at the door of adulthood, I feel   39  to express my own  40    on this saying. I know that I’m just a high school student with very   41   experiences. There are still many things   42   me in the future, yet I would like to express myself in a childish voice.
I once read this sentence: “To make this world a happy place to live, you’d better   43   yourself and your heart , instead of the whole world.” I was shocked. It made me think about life   44   . There are so many things around us that    45    our will. We can’t force life    46    our wishes. The earth won’t stop turning no matter whether we   47   it or not. What we can do is just to make ourselves  48   the world. I think we should learn to accept   49   life gives us, no matter whether it’s the spring sunlight or the winter snowfall, and try to be happy.
Deeply moved by the pop song Grandmother (by Jay Chou), I always try to  50   every pleasant thing in my life, but now I see I don’t catch most of the pleasant moments. It is more   51   that they slip by and leave you feeling   52   . I realize that I’m not just living   53   myself and that there are the others around me I should think of .They all pay attention to my growing up, even if it’s just a little progress.
Everyone has his or her own attitude towards life, be it positive or   54   .It doesn’t matter, I think. There is one   55   that should be obeyed—and that’s to make this world better.

It has been said that Lincoln was always ready to join in a laugh at himself. There is one particular story that he always told with great delight.
In his early days as a lawyer, Lincoln went from town to town to hear and judge legal(法律的)cases. During one of these trips, he was sitting in a train when a strange man came up to him. The stranger looked at the tall clumsy(笨拙的)lawyer and said that he had something he believed belonging to Lincoln. Lincoln was a bit puzzled. He had never seen the man before. He didn’t see how a total stranger could have something of his. Lincoln asked how this could be. The stranger pulled out a penknife and began to explain. Many years before, he had been given the pocketknife. He had been told to keep it until he was able to find a man uglier than himself.

When I was learning calligraphy my teacher told me a story.
A calligrapher taught handwriting.One or his students who often practised handwritihg with old sheets of newspaper complained that he made very little progress though he had learned it with the calligrapher for a long time.His teacher said to him,“Try to use the best paper.Maybe you’ll write better.”
The student did as he was told.It really worked.He made headway not long afterwards and felt curious.He asked his teacher about the reason.The calligrapher answered,“When you used old newspaper to practise handwriting ,you would think you were writing a draft.It didn’t matter if you wrote badly as old newspaper was plenty in supply.In that case you wouldn’t pay much attention to it.Now you use the best paper and you ’ll treasure it.Each time you write you feel strongly about the rarity of chances and you’ll devote to it with all your heart and soul ; you’ll do the handwritihg much more attentively than practising.Of course you’ve made rapid progress.”
Indeed , we spend our ordihary days just as they are worthless “ old newspaper ”.We don’t care if we scrawl and waste it ,thinking that it will come endlessly---the “ old newspaper ” is inexhaustible.In such a mood we may each day pass by opportunities but fail to catch any of them.
Life is not a military exercise but an actual war in which real weapons are used .In everyday life there’s no chance for us to draft.That’s because what we call“draft” actually is the answer sheet we write that cannot be changed.
Every day of our life is something new.Let us take every day as a sheet of the best paper.
46.The calligrapher in the story told the student to write on the best paper because he thought     .
A.the student would practise more carefully on the best paper
B.it was comfortable to write on the best paper
C.the student had enough money to buy the best paper
D.the student could write more on the best paper
47.The student didn’t make much progress at first because     .
A.he regarded his writihg on old newspaper just as a draft
B.he was too poor to buy better paper to write on
C.he didn’t follow his teacher’s advice
D.he was not used to the calligrapher’s teaching manner
48.We learn from the passage that     .
A.the student finally gave up
B.the student made rapid progress by practising more carefully
C.the caligrapher was strict with his students
D.old newspaper is not useful
49.Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A.What teachers say is always true.
B.Success calls for attentiveness.
C.Handwriting is easy to practise.
D.New things are always better than old ones
50.The writer want to tell us that     .
A.there are some good ways to practice handwriting
B.life is like old newspaper
C.we should learn from the student in the story
D.life will not give us a chance to draw a draft

閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的A、B、C和D項中,選出最佳選項,并在答題卡上將該項涂黑。
A couple of years ago,before a trip to China,Nicole Davis and her US women’s volleyball teammates were warned about the prominence (顯著、突出) of coach “Jenny” Lang Ping in her native country.
“I was pushed over by Chinese journalists while I was just trying to put my luggage on the bus,”said Davis.
Known as the “Iron Hammer” for her punishing spikes(扣球),Lang made it possible for China to dominate in the sport in the early 1980s.She was a key player on China’s 1984 Olympic gold medal winning team.
When the US team arrived for the Olympics,Lang,48,who is from Beijing,had to take a different route to avoid a crowd of reporters and fans.
Then came the greatest moment to Lang:While the US team was playing in a packed gym,at least 8,000 Chinese fans unfurled an American flag.
“That really says it all,” Davis said.“They look at her as an icon(偶像).I’m sure it’s hard for them to see her coaching another country,but they love her so dearly that her success is their success.”
The loyalty of the Chinese fans was tested on Friday,when China lost a match to the US.
“It’s a pity that China lost the match,but I’m still glad that Lang Ping’s team won,since she is the pride of China’s volleyball,” said Liu Chengli,a spectator.“We also cheered for
Lang’s victory.”
Lang said she just tried to stay professional when the two teams meet.“It doesn’t matter if we play China or any other team.It’s the same.” Lang said.
Davis said she and her teammates could not have imagined the passion for volleyball among Chinese because the sport was lack of popularity in the US. The reception from Chinese fans has touched the US players,said US volleyball player Lindsey Berg.
“It’s such an honor to be here and play for our coach here in China,”she said.“The amount of support that the Chinese give to her and us has been tremendous.The whole event has been unbelievable.”
1.What’s the passage mainly about?
A.Staying professional.                           B.Cheering for the Iron Hammer.
C.A match between China and the US.      D.Lang Ping’s career as a coach.
2.Lang Ping avoided meeting the reporters and fans probably because she ________.
A.was afraid to be questioned about her strategy
B.didn’t want to be paid much attention to
C.disliked to be with her fans
D.didn’t want to disturb public order
3.What does the underlined word “unfurled” exactly mean?
A.destroyed completely                           B.tore into pieces
C.spread out to the wind                          D.rolled up
4.What does Lang Ping mean by saying “It doesn’t matter if we play China or any other team.”?
A.American Volleyball Team will beat any team.
B.Chinese Volleyball Team is the same as other teams.
C.She just tried to stay professional.
D.The results of each match will be the same.
5.What impressed the US team players most?
A.The tolerance of Chinese people.
B.The popularity of volleyball in China.
C.Lang Ping’s coaching skills.
D.The loyalty for volleyball of the Chinese.

Maurice Sendak’s children’s book, Where the Wild Things Are, published in 1963, has become very successful throughout the years and was made into a movie earlier this year.
The book’s main character is a boy named Max who gets into trouble with his mother and is sent to bed without any supper. Before long, Max’s room magically becomes a forest, and he sails away to a land where monsters live. Max isn’t scared, though, and becomes king of the wild things, but after a while, he begins feeling homesick. Max sails back home and his supper is still hot when he arrives in his bedroom.
Many teachers and professors like this story and use it to help children develop creativity and imagination. Melina Davis, an education professor, said she likes how the book contains a couple of pages that have only pictures on them. “This allows children to shape the story themselves,” she said.
The book contains a few of larger words that some parents worry may confuse children, but experts say those words help improve children’s reading skills and challenge them.
Davis said the book is well written which helps kids get involved in the story. “The book talks about what all children go through, like ‘I was naughty but my mommy still loves me’,” Davis said.
The book also encourages children to face their fears. “I think it’s really good to show that Max is friends with the monsters,” Davis said. “Kids can find out monsters aren’t always the thing under the bed that’s going to scare them. I think this is good because it shows that the children can go to scary places but still have a positive experience.”
Since the book has been successful throughout the years, a movie was recently made and many people are excited to see it. Davis said she thinks the movie will be wonderful but it might be a little scary for younger children. “You don’t want bad dreams over a book that’s extremely wonderful,” Davis said.
46. Teachers and professors like the book Where the Wild Things Are because it helps children ________.
A. learn to draw their own pictures
B. understand their own fear
C. develop more quickly
D. become more imaginative
47. What is the intention of using the larger words in the book?
A. To add to the difficulty while children are reading.
B. To help challenge the children’s reading skills.
C. To cause the children some confusion.
D. To help children get involved in the story.
48. Which of the following is TRUE about the book?
A. The character Max is brave enough in the story.
B. Max was sent to the forest as punishment.
C. It is suitable for people of all ages.
D. It is the most popular children’s book ever published.
49. What does Davis think of the movie?
A. She thinks children of all ages will love it.
B. She encourages children to see it to fight against their fear.
C. She worries that it might be too frightening for some children.

What I had been feeling was pity.Pity is soft,safe and easy.Compassion,on the other hand,is caring in action.I thanked the second man but told him that was not allowed,either.Then I reached into my pocket and paid for the biscuits myself I reached into my pocket because these two men had reached into my heart and taught me compassion.
