19.I like watching butterflies.Sometimes I think I'm the only girl who notices these quiet but beautiful things.But if it hadn't been for a crowded restaurant,I wouldn't have ever noticed Valeri.
Valeri was a new student.She walked to class with her books against her chest and her head down.She talked only when the teacher asked her a question.After a month at our school,she hadn't made any friend.
One day at lunch,most tables being full,I had nowhere to sit.Valeri sat alone,book in hand.I walked over to her,"Is that a good book?"Valeri gave a small nod and went back to reading."What's it about?"I asked.After seconds of silence,she looked at me,her eyes shining,"Well,it's about a dragon!This boy,Eragon,finds this dragon egg when he goes playing one day.He thinks it's a rock!The egg hatches(孵化)and Eragon hides the dragon from his cousin and uncle until it gets too big."
Two weeks later,I was sitting in the auditorium(禮堂)enjoying the talent show.Then a shy girl walked on stage.I recognized her immediately.Valeri held a violin in one hand and a bow in the other.She started to play.The notes formed a soft,sweet tune(曲調(diào)).The auditorium fell completely silent until we realized the music was finished.I smiled to myself.Valeri wasn't just"a quiet girl".She knew about wonderful books and could play the violin like nothing I'd ever heard.Like a butterfly,she was beautiful and amazing when you looked closely.

13.How often do you let other people like a bad driver,a rude waiter,or an angry boss,change your mood (情緒)?
Sixteen years ago I learned a lesson.I got in a taxi,and we took off for Grand Central Station.We were driving in the right lane (車道) when all of a sudden,a black car jumped out of a parking space right in front of us.My taxi driver used his brakes (車閘),the tires made a loud noise,and at the very last moment our car stopped just 3cm from the back of the other car.
I couldn't believe it.But then I couldn't believe what happened next.The driver of the other car,the guy who almost caused a big accident,turned his head around and he started shouting at us.I couldn't believe it!
My taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guy.So,I said,"Why did you just do that?This guy could have killed us!"And this is when my taxi driver told me what I now call,"The Law of the Garbage Truck".He said,"Many people are like garbage trucks.They run around full of garbage,full of anger and disappointment.As their garbage piles up,they look for a place to dump (傾倒) it.And if you let them,they'll dump it on you.
So I started thinking how often I let Garbage Trucks run right over me and how often I take their garbage and spread it to other people.
I began to see Garbage Trucks.I see the load  people are carrying.I see them coming to dump it.And like my taxi driver,I don't take it personally.I just smile,wave,wish them well,and move on.
1.What happened to the author on his way to Grand Central Station?D
A.He was caught in a traffic jam.
B.He had a fight with his taxi driver.

D.His taxi almost ran into another car.

A.got very angry
B.was deeply impressed
C.felt quite disappointed
D.praised him for his manners

10.Airport Delays on the Rise
Delays cause extreme anger among travelers,and cost the country billions in lost productivity.
An FAA study listed eleven major problems and suggested eleven solutions.All problems are in air traffic control.The various regions(地區(qū))don't talk to each other enough.Each region operates differently and the number of planes in so-called regional traffic is increasing.
In the first of eleven solutions,an FAA national center will take control from the regions during heavy traffic or bad weather.
Jane Garvey of the FAA says,"The purpose of the command(指揮)center is to really make those decisions that affect the system in total."Also,the FAA promises publicly again to upgrade its computers.
Michael Barr is a safety expert at the University of Southern California,"We've got fares that are reduced.More people want to fly and we are actually filling the air of the United States with air traffic."
An example of this is that the San Francisco International Airport is growing fast as a world-wide gateway and as a center to an expanded(擴(kuò)展的)regional service.
Ron Wilson of the San Francisco International Airport says,"If we've got 16,17,18 aircraft,departing at 8 a.m.,the guy that is on the 18th plane is going to be 40 minutes late."
Jane Garvey says,"It's important to note that flying is more popular.It's becoming a form of public transportation for a number of people.That's having an effect on the delay numbers as well."
Weather causes about 70% of delays.Then the FAA moves planes farther apart from five miles to as much as 20 miles.The new rule may reduce that to 10 miles.But if the sky is already crowded,where do those planes go?
A traveler says,"Naturally,I think the more space between planes,the safer for travelers."
The FAA calls it an improvement,not a final solution.The public say the major problems remain:too many planes,too few controllers and too little modernization.
44.According to the FAA study,the biggest problem leading to airport delays lies inC.
A.the reduced plane fares         
B.the expanded regional service
C.the poor air traffic control        
D.the increasing passenger numbers
45.What is the writer's attitude towards reducing the space between planes?A
A.Doubtful
B.Supportive
C.Confident
D.Interested.
46.It can be inferred from the passage thatB.
A.the FAA will take control from the regions according to their requirements
B.passengers had better be prepared for airport delays in the near future
C.upgraded computer systems promise planes to be on time
D.plane fares will get raised to reduce passengers.

17.People in South Korea who feel they can no longer bear the stress of everyday life now can choose to stay in a prison to relax and think deeply.
In a society where pressure to do well in school and find highly-paid jobs is intense,a former lawyer came up with an extreme relaxation idea.Kwon Yong-seok created the"Prison Inside Me"-a stress-reduction center with a punishment theme.People come here to cut themselves off from the outside world and pay to be kept in 60-square-foot (5.6-square-meter) cells (囚室).
Located on the outskirts of Hongcheon,about 58miles (93km) northeast of Seoul,"Prison Inside Me"came to life after Mr.Kwon voluntarily asked to spend time behind bars for"healing reasons,"but his request was turned down."I didn't know how to stop working back then,"he said."I felt like I was being swept away against my will,and it seemed I couldn't control my own life."So,Kwon and his wife Roh Ji-hyang decided to take matters into their own hands,and designed and built a prison-like spiritual center.The construction was completed in June last year and cost about 2billion won (﹩19million).
The facility includes 28cells,furnished with only a toilet,a sink and a small table,where guests can spend time alone,thinking about life and enjoying private thinking periods.Moreover,guests can also join group thinking periods in the hall,where they are given instructions on how to free themselves from what Mr.Kwon calls the"inner prison"to find inner peace.
According to the Wall Street Journal,hundreds of stressed South Koreans are checking in at the stress-reduction facility to think about their lives and regain control of it.A two-night stay at"Prison Inside Me"costs 150,000won (﹩146).
Mr.Kwon and his wife explained that at the beginning they had a different plan for the"relaxation center,"and imagined a longer stay for their guests,but,given that people weren't able to take more time off,they had to reduce the length of stays to just two days.
Park Woo-sub,a guest at"Prison Inside Me,"said the experience helped him a lot."This is my third time in prison.Being kept in a prison makes me hard to breathe,but it also offers time to focus only on me and spend some quiet time with myself."
Others said the experience would have been more helpful if the conditions had been poorer,like in a real prison.

67.Paragraph 3mainly tells usC.
A.where"Prison Inside Me"is located
B.what people can do in"Prison Inside Me"
C.how"Prison Inside Me"came into being
D.when"Prison Inside Me"was completed
68.From the passage,we can infer thatB.
A.people in South Korea prefer living under great pressure
B.Mr.Kwon had intended to let guests stay at"Prison Inside Me"for over two days
C.most people in South Korea can not afford to stay at"Prison Inside Me"
D.the 28cells are well furnished,but with no toilets in them
69.We can know from the passage thatD.
A.many people have been kept in such a prison at least three times
B.it is not a good idea for people to focus only on themselves
C.people find it not difficult to breathe though the prison is small
D.some still felt a bit unsatisfied as the conditions weren't poor enough
70.What is the main idea of the passage?A
A.Many South Koreans voluntarily go to prison to reduce stress.
B.Many South Koreans can hardly bear the stress of daily life.
C.South Koreans should spend more time alone thinking about life.
D.South Koreans have found the best way to deal with everyday pressure.

7."Cleverness is a gift while kindness is a choice.Gifts are easy-they're given after all.Choices can be hard."--Jeff Bezos.
I got the idea to start Amazon 16years ago.I came across the fact that the Internet usage was growing at 2,300percent per year.I'd never seen or heard of anything that grew that fast,and the idea of building an online bookstore with millions of titles was very exciting to me.I had just turned 30years old,and I'd been married for a year.I told my wife MacKenzie that I wanted to quit my job and go to do this crazy thing that probably wouldn't work since most start-ups don't,and I wasn't sure what to expect.MacKenzie told me I should go for it.As a young boy,I'd been a garage inventor.I'd always wanted to be an inventor,and she wanted me to follow my passion.
I was working at a financial firm in New York City with a bunch of very smart people,and I had a brilliant boss that I much admired.I went to my boss and told him I wanted to start a company selling books on the Internet.He took me on a long walk in Central Park,listened carefully to me,and finally said,"That sounds like a really good idea,but it would be an even better idea for someone who didn't already have a good job."That logic made some sense to me,and he convinced me to think about it for 48hours before making a final decision.Seen in that light,it really was a difficult choice,but ultimately (最后),I decided I had to give it a shot.I didn't think I'd regret trying and failing.And I suspected I would always be haunted by a decision to not try at all.After much consideration,I took the less safe path to follow my passion,and I'm proud of that choice.For all of us,in the end,we are our choices.

55.What inspired the author with the idea of building an online bookstore?C
A.His dream of being an inventor.
B.The support of his wife.
C.The greatly increasing usage of the Internet.
D.Millions of exciting titles.
56.We can know from the passage thatC.
A.the boss thought the idea was suitable for the author
B.the author wanted someone else to try the idea
C.the author might not regret if he failed the idea
D.the author might go back to his boss if he failed
57.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?D
A.Cleverness and Kindness    B.The Starting of Amazon
C.Following My Passion       D.We Are What We Choose
58.Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined sentence?A
A.The idea of not trying would keep coming to his mind and disturb him.
B.He would be very excited if he tried it out.
C.He would be always having a doubt if he didn't try.
D.The decision to not try the online bookstore would terrify him.
