Once upon a time，a hardworking farmer had a fine farmland．And the harvest is always（36）B under his care．But he knew that his three sons（37）Cdown upon the farm work，and were（38）A to make wealth through adventure．
When the farmer was old and felt that he would（39）Dsoon，he called the three sons to him and said，"My sons，there is a pot of gold hidden in the（40）A．Dig for it，if you wish it．"
The sons（41）C to get him to tell them in what part of the farmland the gold was hidden； but he would tell them（42）A more．
After the farmer was dead，the sons went to work to （43）A the pot of gold； since they did not know（44）C the hiding-place was，they（45）Dto begin in a line，at one end of the farmland，and to（46）B until one of them should find the money．They dug until they had turned up the（47）Dfrom one end of the farmland to the other，round the tree-roots and between them．（48）B no pot of gold was to be found．It seemed as if someone must have（49）A it，or as if the farmer had been playing a joke on his（50）C．The three sons were very （51）A to have all their work for nothing．
The next year，the farmland produced（52）B food than they had ever given； when it was sold，it gave the sons a whole pot of （53）C．
And when they saw how much money had come（54）D the farmland，they suddenly understood what the（55）A father had meant．

2．A swift summer wind had carried away most of the heat．Hundreds of fellow （36）D   poured out of the gym like ants before a rain．We were （37）B   to continue our trip across Kansas with such nice weather．

Our route soon led to the countryside，and the （42）B turned from the town to wide-open wheat fields．The golden-brown heads of grain were bent，（43）C the harvest was about to begin．

1．Some years ago on a hot summer day in south Florida，a little boy decided to go for a swim in the old swimming hole behind his house．
In a hurry to dive into the（36）Bwater，he ran out of the back door，leaving （37）Dshoes，socks，and his shirt as he went．He flew into the water，not realizing that as he swam toward the middle of the lake，an alligator was swimming toward the（38）A．a(chǎn)nd his shirt as he went．He flew into the water，not realizing that as he swam toward the middle of the lake，an alligator was swimming toward the（39）Ctogether．In utter fear，she ran toward the water，（40）Bher son as loudly as she could．
Hearing her voice，the little boy became（41）B and made a return to swim to his mother．It was too late．Just as he reached her，the alligator reached him．
From the dock，the mother（42）D her little boy by the arms just as the alligator snatched his legs．Then began an incredible tug-of-war between the two．The alligator was much（43）Athan the mother，but the mother was much too passionate to（44）C．A farmer happened to drive by，heard her screams，raced from his truck，（45）Dand shot the alligator．
（46）C，after weeks in the hospital，the little boy survived．His（47）A were extremely scarred by the vicious attack of the animal and，on his arms，were deep（48）D where his mother's fingernails dug into his flesh in her effort to hang on to the son she loved．
The newspaper reporter who interviewed the boy afterwards，asked if he（49）A show him his scars．The boy did so．And then，with obvious（50）C，he said to the reporter，"But look at my arms．I have great（51）B here，too．I have them because my mom wouldn't let go．"
You and I can identify with that little boy．We have scars，too．No，not from a（n）（52）D，or anything quite so dramatic，but the scars of a（an）（53）Apast．Some of those scars are unsightly and have caused us deep（54）B．

15．The requirements for high school graduation have just changed in my community．As a result，all students must（36）Csixty hours of service learning，（37）B they will not receive a diploma．Service learning is academic learning that also helps the community．（38）D of service learning include cleaning up a polluted river，working in a soup kitchen，or tutoring a student．（39）Ca service experience，students must keep a journal（日志）and then write a （40）Babout what they have learned．
Supporters claim that there are many（41）B of service learning．Perhaps most importantly，students are forced to think （42）Atheir own interests and become （43）D of the needs of others．Students are also able to learn real-life skills that （44）C responsibility，problem-solving，and working as part of a team．（45）B，students can explore possible careers  （46）A service learning．
For example，if a student wonders what teaching is like，he or she can choose to work in an elementary school classroom a few afternoons each month．（47）Dthere are many benefits，opponents （反對者）（48）Cproblems with the new requirement．First，they （49）Athat the main reason students go to school is to learn core subjects and skills．Because service learning is time-consuming，students spend （50）Ctime studying the core subjects．Second，they believe that forcing students to work without（51）Bgoes against the law．By requiring service，the school takes away an individual's freedom to choose．
In my view，service learning is a great way to （52）Ato the community，learn new skills，and explore different careers．（53）D，I don't believe you should force people to help others-the （54）B to help must come from the heart．I think the best（55）Cis one that gives students choices：a student should be able to choose sixty hours of independent study or sixty hours of service．Choice encourages both freedom and responsibility，and as young adults，we must learn to handle both wisely．

14．請閱讀下面短文，并按照要求用英語寫一篇150詞左右的文章．
There are hundreds of Western literary masterpieces translated and known in China，but Chinese classics，including Dream of the Red Chamber，Romance of the Three Kingdoms，The Water Margin and Journey to the West are hardly known or understood in the West．
Opinions from foreign readers：
●I read translations of these four books and found them heavy going，similar to reading an 18th century novel．
●I have read the Dream of the Red Chamber； the English translation is very difficult to understand．The reader finds words that only make sense in Chinese．
●As to classic Chinese books，my favorite is The True Story of Ah Q．It translates well and still keeps its meanings．

13．I knew I was not supposed to be quite so excited．I was too （36）C for that．At age eleven，the oldest and my mom's"grown up"girl，I had to keep my （37）D．I was in middle school after all．But every chance I got，when I was （38）A，I checked each present under the tree．I read every tag （標(biāo)簽） and felt every package，guessing at the （39）B within．I had examined each gift so often that I could tell which present went to which person（40）B looking at the tags．
It had been a（n）（41）C year for my family．Whenever my mom looked over at the tree and scattered presents，she would sigh and（42）D us，"There won't be as much for Christmas this year．Try not to be disappointed．"Christmas had（43）A been a time for my parents to spoil （寵愛） us．In years past，the presents would （44）B the living room．I had heard the phrase"giving is better than receiving"，but getting presents was the whole point!It was the reason I couldn't go to（45）D on Christmas Eve．

It was a blow dryer．（51）D this may seem only a simple gift，to me it was so much more．But，in my world，where receiving was more （52）B than giving，my mom's act of selflessness was difficult to （53）C．I thought in disbelief about how much my mom must love me to do that．

10．When you catch a cold，should you still go into work or have a rest at home？Sometimes this decision can actually get quite stressful．On the one hand，going into work is the conscientious （盡責(zé)的） thing to do．On the other hand，going into work could make you ill for longer．You probably won't be able to concentrate and do your work well and you might make other people ill．So to help you decide，let's take a look at some of the factors．
First of all，before you go into work，ask yourself whether you are actually going to be productive．Do you have pressing work that really can't wait？Is your job so easy that you can relax while working？If going into work might make you worse，perhaps you had better have one day off and then work probably later．
Secondly，ask yourself whether you are contagious （患傳染病的） and your suffering is caused by a virus．Viruses are highly contagious and can spread through the air．If you cough close to someone，you can very easily give him or her a cold．As a result，you'll end up infecting your colleagues，thus dramatically damaging the productivity of the whole workforce．
Another reason to take time off work is that it's important for your health．Even if you can work in your current condition，that doesn't necessarily mean that you should，as paying no attention to your symptoms could lead to you getting worse and catching other illnesses．Your immune system is weakened when you are ill，so if you travel on the bus with other possibly sick people，you can end up getting other serious infections．Worse still，if a viral infection makes it to your brain，it can result in serious brain damage．So listen to your body and take its warnings seriously!
Though it's better to take time off work in the vast majority of situations，you're most likely not to do it．Why？Because there is an important meeting tomorrow，or you're trying to impress the new boss，or you have a huge to-do list．In short，you're probably always feeling as though you have a huge mountain of work to do．However，in fact it was probably this pressure that caused you to get ill in the first place．So think it over：Can you really not take a single day off work for the sake of your health？If not，then there's probably something very wrong with your work-life balance．

Whether you should go into work when you're ill
