The little boy turned to the old woman next to him, ‘‘Granny, are you sure I don’t have enough money?’’ She nodded. The little boy was still   36  the doll (洋娃娃) in his hand.
I walked toward him,   37  who he wished to give this doll to. “Sister. She was sure that Santa Claus would bring a doll to her.” I told him that maybe Santa Claus would do so. But he replied to me   38  . “No, Santa Claus(圣誕老人) can’t bring it to her   39  she is now. I have to give the doll to my mommy so that she can give it to my sister when she   40  there. My sister has gone to be with God. Daddy says that Mommy is going to see God very soon too,   41  I thought she could take the doll with her to give it to my sister.’’
The little boy looked   42  at me, “I told Daddy to tell Mommy not to go yet. I need her to wait until I come back from the mall. I   43  she didn’t have to leave me, but Daddy says that she has to go to be with my little sister.” Then he looked   44  at the doll with sad eyes.
I quickly   45  for my wallet. “Let’s check again, just in case you do have enough money for the doll!” “OK. I hope I do have enough.” I added some of my money to   46  without him seeing and we started to count it. There was enough for the doll and   47  some spare money. “Thank you God for giving me enough money!” He looked at me and   48 , “I wanted to have enough money to buy a white rose for my Mommy, but I didn’t dare to ask God   49  too much. But He gave me enough to buy the doll and a white rose. My mommy loves white roses.”
  50  I remembered a local newspaper article two days ago, mentioning a drunk man in a truck hit a car   51  by a young woman and a little girl. The little girl   52  right away and the mother was   53  in a critical state.
Two days   54  this encounter (偶然相遇) with the little boy, I read in the newspaper that the young   55  had passed away.

Some people believe that a Robin Hood is at work, others that a wealthy person simply wants to distribute his or her fortune before dying. But the donator who started sending envelopes with cash to deserving causes，accompanied by an article from the local paper, has made a northern German city believe in fairytales (童話）
The first envelope was sent to a victim support group. It contained ?10,000 with a cutting from the Braunschtveiger Zeitung about how the group supported a woman who was robbed of her handbag； similar plain white anonymous (匿名）envelopes, each containing ?10,000, then arrived at a kindergarten and a church.
The envelopes keep coming, and so far at least ?190,000 has been distributed. Last month, one of them was sent to the newspaper’s own office. It came after a story it published about Tom, a 14-year-old boy who was severely disabled in a swimming accident. The receptionist at the Braunschweiger Zeitung opened an anonymous white envelope to find 20 notes of ?500 inside , with a copy of the article. The name of the family was underlined.
"I was driving when I heard the news,” Claudia Neumann, the boy’s mother, told DerSpiegel magazine. “I had to park on the side of the road； I was speechless. ”
The money will be used to make the entrance to their house wheelchair-accessible .and for a course of treatment that their insurance company refused to pay for.
“For someone to act so selflessly, for this to happen in such a society in which everyone thinks of himself, was astonishing," Mrs. Neumann said. Her family wonder whether the donator is a Robin Hood character, taking from banks to give to the needy.
Henning Noske, the editor of the Braunschweiger Zeitung, said： “Maybe it is an old person who is about to die. We just do not know. ” However, he has told his reporters not to look for the city’s hero, for fear that discovery may stop the donations.
小題1:The Braunschweiger Zeitung is the name of             .
A．a(chǎn) churchB．a(chǎn) bankC．a(chǎn) newspaperD．a(chǎn) magazine
小題2:Which of the following is TRUE about the donation to Tom?

Jean—Francois Millet (October 4,1814----January 20, 1875) was a French painter and one of the founder of the Barbizon School in rural France. Born of a peasant family, Millet was encouraged by his father to study art in Cherbourg, France. He can be categorized as part of the movement called “naturalism”(自然主義). His understanding of the peasant’ hard life was perfectly expressed in his choice of subject and natural preference for powerful but simple drawing and coloring.
One of the most well—known of Millet’s paintings, The Gleaners(《拾穗者》)，first came in a vertical composition(垂直式構(gòu)圖) painted in 1854,and then there came the horizontal version in 1856, which is now preserved in the Musee d’Orsay. It depicts women bending over in the fields to collect the leftover’s from the harvest, and it is a monumental composition devoted to the working class.
Previously, servants were depicted in paintings as obedient to a noble or a king, and picking up what was left of the harvest was regarded as one of the lowest jobs in Millet;s times. However, Millet offered these women as the heroic focus of the picture. Besides, in the painting, light lights up the women’s shoulders as they carry out their work. Behind them, the field that stretches into the distance is bathed in golden light, under a wide , magnificent sky. The forms of the three figures, standing against the lighter field, show balance and harmony.
小題1:According to the passage , we can know that Millet________.
A．was born in rural France
B．belongs to neither naturalism nor realism
C．became famous for his love of the countryside
D．received his high school education in Barbizon
小題2:As for the painting The Gleaners, ________.
A．it is originally a horizontal composition
B．it is based on the effort of Musee d’Orsay
C．it presents women in the field as the chief focus
D．it shows how women are stopped from working in the field
小題3:In the painting, the viewer can appreciate Millet’s_________..
A．crazy interest in blue color
B．strong focus on the city life
C．a(chǎn)bsolute respect for the king
D．particular choice of main characters
小題4:In which of the following books can we probably find this passage?
A．Kings and Nobles in France
B．A Guide to French Painting
C．French Agricultural History
D．The Founder of Musee d’Orsay

When a first-time father saw his newborn son, he immediately noticed the baby's ears obviously standing out from his head. He expressed his concern to the nurse that some children might be made fun of his child. A doctor examined the baby and reassured the new dad that his son was healthy---- the ears presented only a small problem with its appearance.
But the nervous father continued. He wondered if the child might suffer psychological effects of ridicule, or if they should consider plastic surgery(整形手術(shù)). The nurse assured him that it was really no problem, and he should just wait to see if the boy grows into his ears.
The father finally felt more optimistic about his child, but now he worried about his wife's reaction to those large ears. She had been delivered by operation, and had not yet seen the child.
“She doesn't take things as easily as I do,” he said to the nurse.
By this time, the new mother was settled in the recovery room and ready to meet her new baby. The nurse went along with the dad to lend some support in case this inexperienced mother became upset about her baby's large ears.
The baby was in a blanket(毛毯) with his head covered for the short trip through the cold air-conditioned corridor. The baby was placed in his mother's arms, who eased the blanket back so that she could look at her child for the first time.
She took one look at her baby's face and looked to her husband and gasped, “Oh, Honey! Look! He has your ears!”
No problem with Mom. She married those ears...and she loves the man to whom they are attached.
The poet Kahlil Gibran said, “Beauty is not in the face; beauty is a light in the heart.” It's hard to see the ears when you're looking into the light.
小題1:When the father first saw his baby, he was worried that________.
A．The baby might not grow up healthily.
B．The baby might be laughed at by others.
C．The baby might disappoint its mother.
D．the baby might have mental problems.
小題2:According to the doctor and nurse, the baby’s ears________.
A．could not function well.
B．looked the same as others.
C．only caused a small problem.
D．needed to have plastic surgery.
小題3:What is true about the baby’s mother?
A．She blamed her husband for the baby’s big ears.
B．She was the first to discover the baby’s large ears.
C．She suggested having an operation on the baby immediately.
D．She found something similar between the baby and its father.
小題4:What does the underlined word they refer to in the last but on paragraph(倒數(shù)第2段)?
A．The ears.B．The parents.C．The doctor and nurse.D．The problems
小題5:What’s the function of the last paragraph?
A．To advise readers to listen carefully.
B．To draw a conclusion from the story.
C．To criticize the wrong attitude to physical beauty.
D．To stress the importance of doctor-patient relationship.

I had to knock on the taxi to get his attention. Finally, the driver, a man about 60, looked up from behind the wheel and apologized, “I’m sorry, but I was reading a letter.” He sounded as if he had a cold or a cough.
Since I was in no hurry, I told him to finish his letter. He shook his head, explaining that he had already read it several times and almost knew it by heart. Curious, I asked whether it was from a child or maybe a grandchild. “This isn’t family,” he replied. “Though he might just as well have been a regular member of the family, Old Ed and I grew up together.”
They were always friends. But since he moved away from the neighborhood 30 years ago, it’d generally just been postcards at Christmas time between them. A couple of weeks ago, Ed died. “I should have kept in touch.” He repeated this, more to himself than to me. To comfort him, I said sometimes we just didn’t seem to find the time. “But we used to find the time,” he said. “Take a look.” He handed the letter over to me.
The first sentence “I’ve been meaning to write for some time, but I’ve always delayed it.” reminded me of myself. It went on to say that he often thought about the good times they had had together. When I read the part where it said “Your friendship really means a lot to me, more than I can say because I’m not good at saying things like that”, I found myself nodding in agreement.
We had gone several kilometers and were almost at my hotel, so I read the last paragraph: “So I thought you’d like to know that I was thinking of you.” And it was ended with “Your Old Friend, Tom.”
“I thought your friend’s name was Ed,” I said.
“I’m Tom,” he explained. “It’s a letter I wrote to Ed before I knew he’d died. I never put it in the mailbox. I guess I should have written it sooner.” His face was pale as he wiped his eyes with a handkerchief.
When I got to my hotel room I didn’t unpack right away. I had to write a letter and post it.
小題1:From Paragraph 4, we learn that the author _______.
A．often fails to write to his friends
B．doesn’t want to write to his friends
C．had many great moments with his friends
D．was good at expressing his feelings to friends
小題2:Who wrote the letter?
A．Old EdB．The driver’s grandchild
C．The authorD．Tom
小題3:It can be inferred from the passage that the driver regretted_____.
A．missing Ed’s funeral
B．moving away from his neighborhood
C．forgetting to send Ed Christmas cards
D．not being able to keep in touch with Ed

This is a real life story of the engineers building the Brooklyn Bridge in New York, USA back in 1870. The bridge was completed in 1883, after 13 years. In 1869, a creative engineer named John Roebling was   16  by an idea to build a spectacular bridge   17  New York with the Long Island.   18 , bridge-building experts throughout the world thought that this was impossible and told Roebling to forget the idea.
Roebling could not ignore the vision he had in his mind of this bridge. After much discussion and persuasion he   19  to convince his son Washington, an up and coming engineer, that the bridge   20 could be built. The project started well, but when it was only a few months underway, a tragic accident took the life of John Roebling. Washington was also injured and left with a certain amount of brain damage, which   21  him not being able to talk or walk.
  22  his handicap, Washington was never discouraged and still had a burning   23  to complete the bridge and his mind was still as   24  as ever. He didn’t want to   25 . Suddenly an idea   26  him. All he could do was move one   27  and he decided to make the best use of it. By moving this, he   28  developed a code of communication with his wife.
For 13 years Washington tapped out his   29  with his finger on his wife’s arm, until the bridge was finally completed. Today the spectacular Brooklyn Bridge stands for his determination not to be   30 by circumstances. It stands too as a monument to the love and   31  of his wife who for 13 years long   32  decoded（解碼）the messages of her husband and told the engineers what to do.
Perhaps this is one of the best examples of a never-say-die attitude that overcomes a terrible physical handicap and achieves a(n)   33  goal. Often when we face obstacles in our day-to-day life, our hurdles(障礙) seem very small in comparison to what many others have to face. The Brooklyn Bridge shows us that   34  that seem impossible can be realized with determination and persistence(堅持), no matter what the   35 are.

About twenty of us had been fortunate enough to receive invitations to a film-studio(影棚)to take part in a crowd-scene. Although our "act" would last only for a short time, we could see quite a number of interesting things.
We all stood at the far end of the studio as workmen prepared the scene, setting up trees at the edge of a winding path. Very soon, bright lights were turned on and the big movie-camera was wheeled into position. The director shouted something to the camera operator and then went to speak to the two famous actors nearby. Since it was hot in the studio, it came as a surprise to us to see one of the actors put on a heavy overcoat and start walking along the path. A big fan began blowing tiny white feathers down on him, and soon the trees were covered in "snow". Two more fans were turned on, and a "strong wind" blew through the trees. The picture looked so real that it made us feel cold.
The next scene was a complete contrast (對比). The way it was filmed was quite unusual. Pictures in front taken on an island in the Pacific were shown on a glass screen (幕). An actor and actress stood of the scene so that they looked as if they were at the water’s edge on an island. By a simple trick like this, palm trees, sandy beaches, and blue, clear skies had been brought into the studio!
Since it was our turn next, we were left wondering what scene would be prepared for us. For a full three minutes in our lives we would be experiencing the excitement of being film "stars"!
小題1:Who is the author?
A．A cameraman.
B．A film director.
C．A crowd-scene actor.
D．A workman for scene setting.
小題2:What made the author feel cold?
A．The heavy snowfall.
B．The man-made scene.
C．The low temperature.
D．The film being shown.
小題3:What would happen in the "three minutes" mentioned in the last paragraph?
A．A new scene would be filmed.
B．More stars would act in the film.
C．The author would leave the studio.
D．The next scene would be prepared.
