10.There is a story about a man who lost his legs and left arm in an accident.After the accident,only a finger and thumb on his right hand remained.
He was a brilliant,creative,and educated man.He had gained a lot of experience while traveling around the world,so he became very depressed after his accident.He was afraid that he would spend the rest of his life suffering and would no longer be able to spend his life in a meaningful way.Then,he realized that he still had partial function of his right hand and could still write even though it was very difficult.An idea occurred to him."Why not write to other people who need encouragement?"
He wrote to the prison ministry about sending letters to the prisoners.The prison minister replied,"Writing to the prisoners is acceptable,but your letters will not be answered."
Filled with excitement,the man knew he could write his letters.He began sending one-way messages of God's love,hope,strength,and encouragement.He wrote twice a week,testing his strength and ability to the limit.He poured his heart and soul into his words and shared his experience,sense of humor,optimism,and faith.
It was difficult to write those letters,especially without hope of a reply.One day he received a letter from the prison ministry.It was a short note from the officer who monitored and checked the prison mail.
  The letter said,"Please write on the best paper you can afford.Your letters are passed from cell to cell until they literally fall to pieces!"
No matter what circumstances life may present,we all have unique experiences,abilities,and God-given talents.We can discover ways to reach others who desperately need messages of encouragement and strength.

A.receive the school education

18.Dear Hamilton,
We are fortunate that in such a large,high-pressure office we all get along so well.You are one of the people who keep the social temperature at such a comfortable setting.I don't know anyone in the office who is better liked than you.
You can perhaps help with this.The collection of contribution towards gifts for employees'personal-life events is becoming a little troubling.Certainly,the group sending of a gift is reasonable now and then.In the past month,however,there have been collections for two baby shower gifts,one wedding shower gift,two wedding gifts,one funeral (葬禮) remembrance,four birthday gifts,and three graduation gifts.
It's not only the collected-from who are growing uncomfortable (and poor),but the collected-for feel uneasy receiving gifts from people who don't know them outside the office,who wouldn't even recognize their graduating children,their marrying daughters and sons,or their dead relatives.
This is basically a kind gesture (and one that people think well of you for),but the practice seems to have become too wide-ranging and feels improper in today's office setting.
Thank you for understanding.

Now,it seems the mystery thief regrets stealing from the shop and has stopped carrying out such crimes.At the time of the robbery,‘my life was in a mess,'the ashamed thief explained in the letter,but now‘I'm trying to lead an honest life.'
The shop owner,Mr Ahmed,was moved by the letter.I n fact,he was so touched and pleased by the thief's change of heart that he is planning to give the money to charity.His said,'I would love to find out who he was but I don't think he will contact us.It's amazing this has happened and to have something like this happen is really good.'He has put it away and it is well kept in a box.
Avon and Somerset Police spokesman Steve Game said,‘The police are very pleased to hear that a victim(受害人) has received some compensation for a crime.The letter shows that criminals can change their lives for the better.'
28.What does the underlined word"astounded"in Paragraph 1 mean?C

20.Though"nanometer"(納米) is now a fashionable term all over the world,few people know exactly what it is.It has become a new favorite of manufacturers and sellers in recent years.Many"high-tech"products bearing the name"nano"have entered the market,bringing more mysterious feeling to surprised consumers.
Nanometer is a very small length unit of measure,and is very small.One millimeter is 1000micrometers,and one micrometer is 1000nanometers.That is,one nanometer is one billionth of a meter.Nano materials are solid materials composed of particles(粒子) or crystallites(晶體) of less than 100nanometer in size.Then,is a cup made of nano material really any different from an ordinary cup in function as far as how it works?
Are nano cups really so wonderful?A reporter went to the Institute of Nanomedicine,which is the first such institute of such a sort in the world and the only one in China,specializing in researching the investigation of the application of nano technology into medicine.
A water molecule(分子) is composed of 2hydrogen atoms and 1oxygen atom.It can be changed only by special working skillfully of the atoms.The material making up the cup can have nanometer particles.But it cannot change the chemical and physical propertiesof the water contained in it.The water in the cup is still water.When people drink it,it will produce no special effect on human body.
Professor Ji who worked in the Instiute of Nanomedicine told the reporter,so far,the investigation of nano materials is still limited in the laboratory.No commercial micro products can be produced yet.With the present level of science and technology,the time of everyday goods made of nanometer materials is still years away.
The products labeled with nano marks in the market now are only traditional products coated with a thin layer of nanometer material,which makes them more abrasion resistant(耐磨),much easier to be cleaned,or oil resisting or moth proof(防蛀).
Professor Ji explained that nano cup is a real cup.It can also be included in the list of nano products in a certain sense.But the nano cup has not changed its property and function as a cup.It is not a magical medicine for curing and health care.

67.Which of the following shows the right relationship?A
A.nanometer<micrometer<millimeter<meter
B.micrometer<millimeter<nanometer<meter
C.nanometer<millimeter<micrometer<meter
D.millimeter<micrometer<nanometer<meter
68.It can be inferred from the passage thatD.
A.real nano products are being produced by some companies
B.nano materials have been put into use in daily goods
C.the nano cup is very effective in curing and health care
D.real nano products haven't become available for people
69.The underlined word"properties"in the fourth paragraph probably meansC.
A.possessions   B.reactions   C.qualities  D.symbols
70.What would be the best title for the passage?B
A.High-tech Products        B.Nano Materials
C.High-teach Research       D.Nano Cups.
