Authorities did not release（公布）the gunman’s name, but Peters said he had no record of police contact or an arrest record while attending Northern Illionois.
DeKalb county coroner（驗(yàn)尸官）Dennis J. Miller on Friday released the identities of the four victims who died in the county: Daniel Parmenter, 20, of Westchester; Catalina Garcia, 20, of Cicero; RyanneMace, 19, of Carpenters-ville; and Julianna Gehant, 32, of Meridan.
“Two other victims died after being transferred to hospitals in other counties,” Miller said. Witnesses said the gunman, dressed in black and wearing a stocking cap,  emerged from behind a screen on the stage of 200-seat Cole Hall and opened fire just as the class was about to end around 3 pm.
Officials said 162 students were registered for the class but it was unkown how many were there on Thursday.
Allyse Jerome, 19, a sophomore（大二學(xué)生）from Shunmburg, said the gunman burst through a stage door and pulled out a gun.
“Honestly, at first everyone thought it was a joke,” Jerome said. Everyone hit the floor, she said. Then she got up and ran, but tripped. She said she felt like “an open target.”
“He could’ve decided to get me,” Jerome said on Friday. “I thought for sure he was gonna get me.”
Lauren Carr said she was sitting in the third row when she saw the shooter walk through a door on the right-hand side of the stage, pointing a gun straight ahead.
“I personally Army-crawled halfway up the aisle（通道）,” said Carr, a 20-year-old sophomore. “I said I could get up and run or I could die here.”
She said a student in front of her was bleeding, “but he just kept running.”
More than a hundred students cried and hugged as they gathered outside the Phi Kappa Alpha house early Friday morning to remember Dan Parmenter, who was one of those killed.

注意：每空只填1個(gè)單詞。
Life or Lifestyle?
What is a lifestyle and how is that different from a life? A lifestyle is about brand names and buying identity or prestige（聲望）. Lifestyle gives a false sense of peace and acceptability that comes from others recognizing what you've bought into (as well as bought). If your car, clothes, and home are expensive, you're sophisticated and stylish. If you have the right kind of job or go to the right social gatherings, then you receive the superficial approval of others. This means that your self-esteem is always at the mercy of others, with no appreciation of you as an individual.
A life, on the other hand, is very different. A life is what you lead when you know what matters most to you. It is very simple and comes from being connected to what you know is important and being willing to put that first, no matter what others may think. When you create a life vs a lifestyle, your self-esteem comes from what's inside you, not what others think about you.
How many times have you seen someone (this used to be me!) work long hours in a job that they do not enjoy just to be able to maintain an expensive lifestyle? There was a recent commercial on TV that showed a man laughing in his yard saying: "I drive an expensive car, have a 5 bedroom home, a country club membership, a swimming pool and I'm in debt up to my eyeballs!" Every time I see this commercial I think about the book—The Millionaire Next Door. The book says that most of the people living in the largest homes are exactly like the man in the commercial and that the real millionaires are the ones you would never guess, because their focus is on creating a life vs. a lifestyle.
Lifestyle is expensive monetarily(金錢) and personally, because it costs a great deal to keep up appearances and do what you think is socially acceptable. A Life is not expensive. Rather than running out of personal or financial resources, a life generates energy and staying power. If we focus on what we wear, or what kind of car we drive, or where we live, then we are saying that how others see us is more important than what we think of ourselves. If we find out what our true beliefs and values are and choose to live by these, then the opinions of others don't drive our lives. This is not an issue of avoiding luxury for its own sake; it's about liberating yourself from the mindless consumption that society demands. It is about making the choices that agree with your values, instead of running out of your bank account or energy for no heart-driven reason.
How can you make the change? Understand the difference between a Life (being directed from within) and a Lifestyle (being directed from outside). Analyze your current lifestyle to see what it is costing you in money, time, stress, and energy to maintain it. Let go and make room for what is really important to you, what sustains you and brings you joy. Remember that who you are comes from within, not what you own.

第三部分任務(wù)型閱讀（共10小題；每小題1分，滿分10分）
Fairview Elementary School, Modesto, California, with some 1,000 students from kindergarten through sixth grade (about 80 percent of them Latino), has long suffering from discipline problems, poor test scores, and a near total lack of parental involvement. The difficulties aren't surprising given that many of the parents -- immigrants who work on farms or in factories -- speak little or no English.
Since 2002, Fairview Elementary School has been a First Amendment School, one of 97 developed across the country by the First Amendment Center. The idea behind the five-year-old program: To keep America strong, children must be trained to respect many points of view, weigh complex issues, and understand the freedoms guaranteed by the Constitution(憲法) .As students learn good citizenship, the theory goes, they'll develop the skills and attitude to do well academically.
Fairview students enjoy "freedoms" other kids might envy (they voted to abolish school uniforms, for example). But the children don't just exercise rights. They also accept such responsibilities as speaking up during class discussions, and keeping the school clean and safe (Fairview is rated the cleanest of 33 schools in its district). In one departure from tradition, there's no hand-raising in class. "Instead," says teacher Deborah Supnet, "we teach them to listen for when the other child stops talking," Call it an exercise in respect.
Last year, the number of students evaluated advanced in math increased, from 15 to 30 percent. And Fairview graduates in their first middle-school mid-term exam averaged B grades; 96 percent passed all subjects. Particularly encouraging to Principal Rob Williams, the school now has an active parents' group, Parents With a Voice. One of those parents, Laura Malagon, praises the program for convincing her to play a more active role in her children's school life.

In the doorway of my home, I looked closely at my 23-year-old son, Daniel. In a few hours he would be flying to France to     41    a different life. It was a transitional（過渡的）time in Daniel's life. I wanted to     42    him some words of significance. But nothing came from my lips, and this was not the     43     time I had let such moments pass.
When Daniel was five, I took him to the bus stop on his first day of kindergarten. He asked, “What is it going to be like, Dad? Can I do it?” Then he walked     44     the steps of the bus and disappeared inside. The bus drove away and I said nothing. A decade later, a similar     45      played itself out. I drove him to college. As I started to leave, I tried to think of something to say to give him     46     and confidence as he started this new stage of life. Again, words     47     me.
Now, as I stood before him, I thought of those     48    opportunities. How many times have I let such moments     49    ? I don't find a quiet moment to tell him what they have     50     to me. Or what he might     51     to face in the years ahead. Maybe I thought it was not necessary to say anything.
What does it matter in the course of a lifetime if a father never tells a son what he really thinks of him?     52     as I stood before Daniel, I knew that it did matter. My father and I loved each other. Yet, I always     53    never hearing him put his    54     into words. Now I could feel my palms sweat and my throat tighten. Why is it so    55   to tell a son something from the heart?
My mouth turned dry, and I knew I would be able to get out only a few words clearly. “Daniel,” I said, “If I could have picked, I would have picked you.” That's all I could say. He hugged me. For a moment, the world    56    , and there were just Daniel and me. He was saying something, but tears misted my eyes, and I couldn't understand what he was saying. All I was    57     of was the stubble（短須）on his chin as his face pressed    58   mine. What I had said to Daniel was    59   . It was nothing. And yet, it was   60    .
41. A. experience             B. spend              C. enjoy              D. shape
42. A. show               B. give               C. leave              D. instruct
43. A. last                 B. first               C. very              D. next

67. What I read is mainly about the history of sports. I don’t have much time for anything else, except that I like dancing a lot. Some people say I’m not very good at it, though. I’m happy I’m active, doing things instead of watching people do.
68. I’m particularly interested in current affairs. So I often choose the TV news. And sometimes watch the sports. In some ways I think I learn more than I did at school.
69. Our joy is not only due to the appreciation of his diligence, but also of his strong will. Now I feel happy because something in this boy’s heart moved me and made me know that we mainly depended on our own feet to stand up, not just others’ help.
70. However, all things went contrary (相反的) to my wishes. I was wrong, extremely wrong! What the so-called developed and prosperous city is only the mirage (海市蜃樓).
A.    Jonny’s Story

B.    Eve’s Story
I haven’t much interest in studying. To be honest, I don’t like reading very much, except for magazines and that sort of things. Just do light reading to kill the time. But I do enjoy TV. Not that I watch everything. In fact, I choose my programs very carefully.
C.    Zhang’s Story
Once, I brought with great ideas to come to this city to realize my dreams. Everything in my eyes seemed to be perfect at that time and I thought that there would be nothing imperfect that would come into my life.

When I left school five years ago, I said to myself, “That’s it. No more learning for me. Now I can enjoy myself in the evening.” But about a year ago my boss said, “We’re going to get a computer in the near future.” What did he mean? I simply didn’t know.

71______________
When we speak of a basic human need we mean something necessary to life, something we cannot do without. Food is a basic human need. Without it we would starve to death. Whether in primitive(原始的)countries or in more advanced societies, man’s food needs are the same. 72
But primitive people eat only the food which can be grown near their homes, whereas people in more advanced societies eat food which is often grown many thousands of miles away from their homes. Primitive people are satisfied with less kinds of food, therefore we can say people’s wants are different although their needs are the same.
73 Clothing is necessary to regulate (調(diào)節(jié)) the heat of our bodies. In different climates and in different seasons we need more or less clothes. We also dress differently for other reasons. 74
Shelter, the third of our needs, depends on climate, the skill of the builders, one’s social position, and the material which can be used. 75 The three-bed-roomed house of the average family would not be grand enough for a very rich family, but a modern house with many of the material comforts were denied to the kings and queens in the past.
A．Food, Clothing and Shelter.
B．Human Needs
C．We always change our style of clothing for different occasions, such as work, sports, parties.
D．We all need food to live a healthy life.
E. We want to live comfortably .
F. The simple shelter of the primitive people would not do for us, and yet it satisfied their needs.
G. The same is true of the second of human needs.
