When Glen Kruger picked a small cat from an animal shelter, he did not expect much.  Yet right from the start, eight years ago, there was an uncommon connection between him and the small black cat.  He     36   her Inky.

The seventy-year-old man , says. “My hearing was damaged by the    38    of farm equipment , so I learned to connect with    39  .  They react to what they see and what you do.  ”
Inky was a gentle cat,       40     the house with five other cats.  But on a January night in 2009,  Inky did    41     that would set her apart from    42     cats forever.
Kruger had gone down to the basement to     43      the wood stove for the night.  When he was finished, he     44     to the top of the stairs and reached to  turn off the lights. In doing so , he slipped and    45      his back against an old shelf.  The heavy shelf came crashing down and sent Kruger down the stairs.
     46    in a pool of blood on the basement floor, Kruger felt     47    going into shock（休克）.  He shouted for help ,      48      his wife, Brenda , was asleep in their      
bedroom at   the opposite end of the house.     49      Kruger noticed Inky watching from the top of the stairs.
“Go get Brenda, ” Kruger said to Inky.
Inky    50     to the bedroom door and scratched     51     until Brenda opened it.  Then Inky led her to  the     52     Brenda found her husband     53      the stairs and called 911.  Kruger was rushed to the hospital. “I spent six months   54   therd,” 
Says Kruger .  “Although I became lame , I was blessed. ” Since the accident, Inky has   55

There are thousands of things to be sold that are of all colors and shapes in a supermarket, making you believe that they are good enough for you to have a try. How packaging(包裝)is the quiet but persuading salesman?  
There on the shelves，each bottle, can and box has been carefully designed to speak to the inner self of the consumer(消費者), so that he is buying not only a product but also his belief in life. Scientists have studied on this and found that the look of the package has a great influence on the “quality” of the product and on how well it sells, because “Consumers generally cannot tell between a product and its package. Many products are packages and many packages are products,” as Louis Cheskin, the first social scientist studying consumers’ feeling for packaging, noticed.
Colors are one of the best tools in packaging. Studies of eye movement have shown that colors draw human attention quickly. Take V8 for example. For many years，the bright red color of tomatoes and carrots on the thin bottle makes you feel that it’s very good for your body. And the word “green" today can keep food prices going up.
Shapes are another attraction．Circles often mean happiness, because they are pleasing to both the eye and the heart. That’s why the round yellow M sings of McDonald’s are inviting to both young and old.
This new consumer response(反應(yīng))to the colors and shapes of packages reminds(提醒)producers and sellers that people buy to meet the needs of both body and heart.
小題1:According to the passage, ______ seems to be able to persuade a consumer to buy the  product.
A．the pleasing color of the package
B．the special taste of the product
C．the strange shape of the package
D．the belief in the product
小題2:It can be inferred(推測)from the passage that V8 is a kind of        .
A．vegetable dishB．healthy juice
C．hard drinkD．red vegetable
小題3:“And the word ‘green’ today can keep food prices going up” This sentence  
suggests that consumers today are       .
A．starting to notice the importance of new food
B．enjoying the beauty of nature more than before
C．beginning to like green vegetables
D．paying more attention to their health
小題4:What’s the best title of the passage?
A．Colors and Shapes
B．Packaging Can Talk
C．The response to the packages

In the professional world, oral communication skills in the workplace, which is the art of using speech to convey information, thoughts and feeling to others, is important for the success of any organizations.
The 21st century has been considered to be an era of communication. The way we convey our thoughts is of great importance in building relationships. In the workplace, there are employees of diverse cultural and educational backgrounds. This makes team working on a difficult task, but with a clear understanding of the task to be achieved, all members work towards the same goal. Misunderstandings, conflicts and differences in opinions are easily managed when there is a clear flow of communication between team members.
With proper communication, a close relationship and trust build among the employees, therefore promoting excellent working conditions. An atmosphere of support and cooperation is promoted by properly conveying expectations of the management team to the employees and vice – versa (相反的情況). Therefore, developing oral communication skills is important to success in life ahead.
How to improve oral communication? In the business world, individuals are expected to be confident about their beliefs and ideas. Therefore, they must include words like “in my opinion”, “as far as I know”. While improving skills on oral communication, people in a workplace must learn the art of listening. In addition, one must also have a positive body language during conversations. A person with a smiling face and positive attitude can raise the spirits of everyone around him. When we’re talking to someone, we must give the other person an opportunity to talk as it improves our listening ability.

When my brother and I were young, my mom would take us on Transportation Days.
It goes like this: You can’t take any means of transportation more than once. We would start from home, walking two blocks to the rail station. We’d take the train into the city center, then a bus, switching to the tram, then maybe a taxi. We always considered taking a horse carriage in the historic district, but we didn’t like the way the horses were treated, so we never did. At the end of the day, we took the subway to our closest station, where Mom’s friend was waiting to give us a ride home—our first car ride of the day.
The good thing about Transportation Days is not only that Mom taught us how to get around. She was born to be multimodal (多方式的). She understood that depending on cars only was a failure of imagination and, above all, a failure of confidence—the product of a childhood not spent exploring subway tunnels.
Once you learn the route map and step with certainty over the gap between the train and the platform, nothing is frightening anymore. New cities are just light-rail lines to be explored. And your personal car, if you have one, becomes just one more tool in the toolbox—and often an inadequate one, limiting both your mobility and your wallet.
On Transportation Days, we might stop for lunch on Chestnut Street or buy a new book or toy, but the transportation was the point. First, it was exciting enough to watch the world speed by from the train window. As I got older, my mom helped me unlock the mysteries that would otherwise have paralyzed my first attempts to do it myself: How do I know where to get off? How do I know how much it costs? How do I know when I need tickets, and where to get them? What track, what line, which direction, where’s the stop, and will I get wet when we go under the river?
I’m writing this right now on an airplane, a means we didn’t try on our Transportation Days and, we now know, the dirtiest and most polluting of them all. My flight routed me through Philadelphia. My multimodal mom met me for dinner in the airport. She took a train to meet me.
小題1:Which was forbidden by Mom on Transportation Days?
A．Having a car ride.
B．Taking the train twice.
C．Buying more than one toy.
D．Touring the historic district.
小題2:According to the writer, what was the greatest benefit of her Transportation Days?
A．Building confidence in herself.
B．Reducing her use of private cars.
C．Developing her sense of direction.
D．Giving her knowledge about vehicles.
小題3:The underlined word “paralyzed” (in Para. 5) is closest in meaning to “_______”.
A．displayed
B．justified
C．ignored
D．ruined
小題4:Which means of transportation does the writer probably disapprove of?
A．Airplane.
B．Subway.
C．Tram.
D．Car.

People who put a smiley face at the end of a message, in an attempt to show feeling, show no feeling. I wish there was a symbol for two fingers in the air.
I had some bad news this week. My manager informed me of this news via email. It was like hearing about the death of a loved one via pigeon. Bad news should only ever be delivered face to face or voice to voice.
We seem to celebrate our numerous methods of communication, but really there is no communication at all. I talk to my plants more than I talk to my neighbors, I get text messages that take me three hours to read because they’re written like this: “Hi, I ope you av a gr8 day. Call me La8tr.” I had an email from someone this week that read, “Da ut ov 2day are really annoying me!” Ut? I had to say this 20 times before I understood it. Youth has now become ut. Haven’t we taken enough from them—now we have to take their letters?
I had an email recently from a girl who used to live over the road from me as a child. She wrote, “Hi Shazia, howz u? Im sure u used 2 live across the road from me. We sumtimes played tennis 2 gever at the park and you was in your eliment. I am married now wif 3 daughters.” Then, to my horror, she ended the email with: “Im now teachin in Leeds. Luv Clare.”
Teaching? With English like this. It’s like saying you’re a train driver when you’ve never seen a train. It was like reading modern Morse code.
Getting bad news via email makes it seem so much worse than it actually is. Just a few lines, no emotion, no comfort, not really an explanation. Just a few cold hard words. It’s an excuse. Just write a few words and the problem of delivering it is no longer yours. A close friend recently told me she was very happy to announce she was getting married—and made the announcement by email. I don’t know how she didn’t fall off her chair with excitement while writing it. If you are really happy or really sad to announce something important, wouldn’t you like a human reaction? Some euphoria, elation, tears, a punch in the face?
I receive long text messages every day with information and explanations that I don’t bother reading. They’re boring, and annoy me. In the time it took someone to write me three laborious texts, they could have called, spoken to me, made some tea. People who put a smiley face at the end of a sentence, in an attempt to show feeling, show no feeling. I wish there was a symbol for two fingers in the air, because that’s the one I’d send back.
The telegram has been responsible for reporting world-shattering events when there were very few other options(選擇權(quán)). Now we have options, and people opt for the least humane one. My mum, in an attempt to get down with the ut of today, asked me to teach her to text. Now she constantly texts me in block capitals, so it looks as if she is still angry and annoyed with me after all these years.
People don’t even write by hand any more. My doctor prints out prescriptions from his computer; even my mechanic prints out a receipt. I get typed Christmas cards and my friends send me emails. I get very excited when hand-written letters come through my door, only because they rarely do.
When I was at school, the girls used to write letters to each other, even though we sat side by side and spoke to one another all day. I think it was a way of expressing private things we were afraid to say when we were 14 and too shy. We used to write things like, “You are my best friend, can’t wait to sit next to you in math.”
I miss the personal method of communication. Once the pen was mightier than the sword, now it seems the keyboard is mightier than the pen.
小題1:We can learn from paragraph 3 and paragraph 4 that the writer wants to say ________.
A．the spelling mistakes in the messages make her very annoyed
B．only writing letters will bring friends and neighbors much closer
C．she talks to plants more because no one shares her joys and sorrows
D．gestures and the pen can express a lot more than the cold keyboard
小題2:According to the writer, which of the following can support her opinion?
A．She has been separated from all his classmates many years.
B．No doctors write prescriptions by hand because of computers.
C．In communication, we should write more letters than send messages.
D．Less shy than school girls, boys rarely write letters to their friends.
小題3:According to the passage, we can conclude that ________.
A．the writer is a person full of emotions and treasures friendship and affections
B．the writer becomes excited when she gets priceless gifts from other people
C．her classmates would write to each other because they couldn’t send messages
D．people put a smiley face at the end of a message just to show they are happy
小題4:What message is conveyed in the passage?
A．The writer wastes much time in reading many rubbish text messages every day.
B．Few people can write letters well in modern society owing to texting messages.
C．Now people are too busy to communicate with each other face to face often.
D．The writer prefers personal communication rather than electronic equipment.
小題5:Why does the writer mention the telegram?
A．Because she thinks the annoyance of reading text messages is originated from it.
B．Because we have more options to keep in touch with each other than ever before.
C．Because advanced technology partly takes the blame for lacking the human touch.
D．Because she thinks humans today become colder with the development of society.
小題6:Which of the following best describe the tone of this passage?
A．Optimistic.B．Critic.C．Sympathetic.D．Pessimistic.

I left university with a good degree in English Literature, but no sense of what I wanted to do. Over the next six years, I was treading water, just trying to earn an income. I tried journalism, but I didn’t think I was any good, then finance, which I hated. Finally, I got a job as a rights assistant at a famous publisher. I loved working with books, although the job that I did was dull.
I had enough savings to take a year off work, and I decided to try to satisfy a deep-down wish to write a novel. Attending a Novel Writing MA course gave me the structure I needed to write my first 55,000 words.
It takes confidence to make a new start — there’s a dark period in-between where you’re neither one thing nor the other. You’re out for dinner and people ask what you do, and you’re too ashamed to say, “Well, I’m writing a novel, but I’m not quite sure if I’m going to get there.” My confidence dived. Believing my novel could not be published, I put it aside.
Then I met an agent（代理商）who said I should send my novel out to agents. So, I did and, to my surprise, got some wonderful feedback. I felt a little hope that I might actually become a published writer and, after signing with an agent, I finished the second half of the novel.
The next problem was finding a publisher. After two-and-a-half years of no income, just waiting and wondering, a publisher offered me a book deal — that publisher turned out to be the one I once worked for.
It feels like an unbelievable stroke of luck — of fate, really. When you set out to do something different, there’s no end in sight, so to find myself in a position where I now have my own name on a contract（合同）of the publisher — to be a published writer — is unbelievably rewarding（有回報的）.
小題1:What does the underlined part in Paragraph 1 mean?
A．I was waiting for good fortune.
B．I was trying to find an admirable job.
C．I was being aimless about a suitable job.
D．I was doing several jobs for more pay at a time.
小題2:The author decided to write a novel ______ .
A．to finish the writing course
B．to realize her own dream
C．to satisfy readers’ wish
D．to earn more money
小題3:How did the writer feel halfway with the novel?
A．Disturbed.B．Ashamed.C．Confident.D．Uncertain.
小題4:What does the author mainly want to tell readers in the last paragraph?
A．It pays to stick to one’s goal.
B．Hard work can lead to success.
C．She feels like being unexpectedly lucky.
D．There is no end in sight when starting to do something.

My 17-year-old daughter went off to college and having her away from home brought back memories of watching Peter Pan when she was little. In the classic TV production, one scene in particular impressed me: when Mrs Darling puts her children into bed. As she turns off the last of the night lights, she takes one last look at the bedroom and says, “Dear night lights, protect my sleeping children.” As a mother, I know how much she loves her children.
It has been several weeks since we took our daughter to college and she seems to be adjusting (適應(yīng)) well after a short period of homesickness. For us, though, it’s another story. Like most parents, I love checking in on my children at night. But now she’s gone, and I find nighttimes the hardest. I miss her most at night.
In my neighborhood, most of the parents whose kids are off to college are dealing with similar melancholy. My husband is filled with anxiety. One friend talked about getting this sick feeling in her stomach as she prepared for the college drop-off. We complained that many of us were too busy to truly enjoy being with our children while we had them.
For us moms, seeing Toy Story 3 only made the sadness worse as we watched the character Andy, who is the same age as our kids, say goodbye to his childhood as he prepares to leave for college. And it’s not just “first-time” parents like me. Two moms who have kids already well into college said the separation didn’t get any easier. “You feel like something has been taken away from inside you,” said one of them.
I imagine things will get easier with time, especially as I see my daughter adjust to college life. Meanwhile, as I keep my cellphone close to me in bed and text my daughter goodnight and sweet dreams every night, I like to think that messages serve as a night light that keeps her safe.
小題1:The writer was deeply impressed by the scene in Peter Pan because ___________.
A．she watched the scene with her daughter
B．the scene was very exciting and interesting
C．the scene taught her and her daughter a good lesson
D．the scene showed a mother’s deep love for her children
小題2:After he daughter went to college, the writer ___________.
A．didn’t get used to the change for a long time
B．often cried as she missed her daughter so much
C．realized she hadn’t done enough for the daughter
D．failed to have a good sleep every night
小題3:What is the underlined word “melancholy” in Paragraph 3 similar in meaning to?
A．Happiness.B．Anger.C．Sadness.D．Excitement.
小題4:We can infer that watching Toy Story 3 ___________.
A．made the writer know her daughter didn’t want to go to college
B．improved the relationship between the writer and her daughter
C．helped the writer realize how important education was
D．made the writer miss her daughter even more

For the last couple of weeks, I had been stuck in front of my computer working on a project that was very important to me. My every waking hour was consumed（消耗） by the project and although I imagined that I would feel happy after completing parts of the project, I was confused to find that instead, I was feeling rather depressed. I tried a range of methods to help cheer myself up. I had a relaxing bath, cooked a delicious meal to enjoy with my family and even watched a lighthearted（輕松地） movie, but to no avail. It was only when I turned to meditation(沉思)for a solution that the answer came to me: turn to nature!
The very next day, I grabbed my camera and a bottle of water and set off to spend a few hours walking in a nature reserve, even though it was pouring with rain. Within a couple of minutes I felt alive again. To be honest, I felt like a young school girl again and had to stop myself from hopping（單腳跳） along the path singing, "I'm singing in the rain", a song I used to sing when I was a child. I think as adults we often try too hard to control our inner children and as a result we restrain(限制) our own spirits, which only leads to depression and stress.
Interestingly, it has been shown that people who spend 40 minutes walking in a nature reserve have a drop in their blood pressure levels, but this does not happen when they spend a similar amount of time walking in a busy city centre.
If you feel a little low in spirit and know that you have spent too much time indoors, relax completely, remove your shoes and let your inner child come out and play.
小題1:The author felt depressed because she __________.
A．couldn't consume her waking hour.
B．had not seen a film for a long time.
C．had not finished her work on time.
D．had worked on a hard job for too long.
小題2:The author walked in a nature reserve in the rain in order to__________.
A．take photos.B．find a solution to the project.
C．hop along the path.D．cheer herself up.
小題3:The underlined part "to no avail" in Paragraph 1 probably means
" __________.".
A．unsuccessfulB．unrelated（不相關(guān)的）C．uninterestingD．unexpected
小題4:In the author's opinion, __________.
A．a(chǎn) bath can make people relaxed.
B．depression is usually caused by hard work.
C．walking in a busy city centre harms people's health.
D．a(chǎn)dults should express their inner feelings freely.
