I made a pledge (發(fā)誓) to myself on the way down to the vacation beach cottage. For two weeks I would try to be a loving husband and father. Totally loving .  No ifs, ands or buts.
The idea had come to me as I listened to a talk on my car radio. The speaker was quoting (引用) a Biblical (圣經(jīng)的) passage about husbands being thoughtful(體貼的) of their wives. Then he went on to say," Love is an act of will. A person can choose to love." To myself, I had to admit that I had been a selfish husband. Well , for  two weeks that would change.
And it did. Right from the moment I kissed Evelyn at the door and said," That new yellow sweater looks great on you."
"Oh, Tom, you noticed," she said, surprised and pleased, maybe a little puzzled.
After the long drive, I wanted to sit and read. Evelyn suggested a walk on the beach. I started to refuse, but then I thought, "Evelyn's been alone here with the kids all the week and now she wants to stay with me. " We walked on the beach while the children flew their kites.
So it went. Two weeks of not calling the Wall Street firm where I am a director; a visit to the shell museum though I usually hate museums. Relaxed and happy, that's how the whole vacation passed, I made a new pledge to keep on remembering to choose love. There was one thing that went wrong with my experiment, however. Evelyn and I still laugh about it today. Last night at our cottage, preparing for bed, Evelyn stared at me with the saddest expression.
“What’s the matter?” I asked her.
“ Tom ,” se said in a voice filled with distress, “ do you know something I don’t?”
"What do you mean?"
"Well...that checkup(體檢) I had several weeks ago...our doctor...did he tell you something about me? Tom , you've been so good to me... am I dying?"
It took a moment for it all to sink in. Then I burst out laughing.
"No, honey," I said, wrapping her in my arms. "You're not dying; I'm just staring to live."
71.  In the first paragraph, "No ifs, ands or buts" probably means___.
A. unnecessarily     B. unexpectedly    C.   impossibly    D. unconditionally
72. From the story we may infer that Tom went to the beach cottage___.
A. with his family    B. with Evelyn     C. alone           D. with his children
73. During the two weeks on the beach, Tom showed more love to his wife because___.
A. she looked lovely in her new clothes
B. he had made a lot of money in Wall Street
C. he was determined to be a good husband
D. she was seriously ill
74.  The underlined words "one thing" in the passage refer to the fact that___.
A. he praised her sweater, which puzzled her
B. she insisted on visiting a museum, which he hated
C. he knew something about her illness but didn't tell her
D. he was so good to her that she thought she must be dying
75.  By saying "I'm just starting to live", Tom means that___.
A. he is just beginning to understand the real meaning of life
B. he is just beginning to enjoy his life as a loving husband
C. he lived an unhappy life before and is now starting to change
D. he is beginning to feel regretful for what he did to his wife

閱讀理解。
     To be a good teacher, you need some of the talents of a good actor: you must be able to hold attention and
interest of your students; you must be a clear speaker, with a good, strong, pleasing voice which is fully under
your control; you must be able to act what you are teaching,in order to make its meaning clear.  
     A good teacher does't sit still before his class;he stands all the time while he is teaching; he walks about,
using his arms,hands and fingers to help him in his explanations,and his face to express his feelings. Listen to
him,and you will hear the loudness, the quality and musical note of his voice always changing according to
what he is talking about. 
      The fact that a good teacher has some of the gifts of a good actor doesn't mean he will indeed be able to
act well on the stage, for the re are very important differences between the teacher's work and the actor's. the
actor has to speak words he has learnt by heart;he has to repeat exactly the same words each time he plays
a certain part,even his movements and the ways in which he uses his voice are usually fixed beforehand. What
he has to do is to make all the se carefully learnt words seem natural on the stage.
     A good teacher works in quite a different way. His audience takes an active part in his play-the y ask and
answer questions,the y obey orders,and if the y don't understand something,the y say no. the teacher the
refore has to meet the needs of his audience. He can't learn his part by heart,because the ir brains couldn't keep
discipline:the y couldn't keep strictly to what another has written.
1. If you want to be a good teacher, you should _____.  
A. act out what you have learnt strictly
B. be a good actor on the stage
C. sit all the time while teaching
D. suit the need of different students
2. the underlined word talents in the first paragraph means _____.
A. methods
B. girls
C. wishes
D interests
3. In what way is a teacher's work different from that of an actor's?
A. the teacher must learn everything by heart.
B. He has to deal with unexpected situations.  
C. He has to use more facial expressions.
D. He has to control his voice better than an actor.
4. the main difference between students and audience in the the atre is that students _____.
A. move around the class
B. keep silent all the time
C. take an active part in class
D. 1ike body language
5. If Tom Hanks,the famous actor, would like to be a good teacher, he may need training in _____. 
A. how to use body language
B. how to repeat his lines
C. how to be more quick-minded
