The weed before me was dying or dead. Not brilliant colors, orange, yellow or red. But I knew I must ___28___ it, or he might never leave. So I reached for the flower, and replied, "Just what Ineed."
But ___29___ him placing the flower in my hand, he held it mid-air without ___30___ or plan. It was then that I noticed for the very first time, that young boy could not see: he was blind.
My ___31___ trembled, and tears shone like the sun as I ___32___ him for picking the very best one. "You're welcome," he smiled, and then ran off to play, not ___33___ of the impact he'd had on my day.
I sat there and wondered how he ___34___ to see a self-pitying woman beneath an old willow tree. How did he ___35___ my difficult situation? ___36___ from his heart, he'd been blessed with true ___37___.
At last I could see, ___38___ the eyes of a blind child, the problem was not with the ___39___; the problem was me. And for all of those times I myself had been ___40___, I vowed(發(fā)誓) to see beauty, and appreciate every second that's mine.
I held that wilted(枯萎) flower up to my nose and breathed in the fragrance of a beautiful rose and smiled as that young boy.

Always Changing

Mark is leaving, and I’m feeling kind of sad.
You probably don’t know Mark, but you might be lucky enough  36 someone just like him. He’s been the heart and soul of the office for a couple of years combining  37 professional skills with a sweet and gentle nature.
And now he’s moving on to an exciting new professional  38 . It sounds like it could be the chance of a lifetime, and we’re  39 for him. But that doesn’t make it any easier to say goodbye to him.
Life has a way of throwing these curve(曲線)balls  40 us. Just when we start to get comfortable with a person, a place or a situation, something comes along to   41 the recipe.
Our ability to cope with change  42 to a great degree, our peace, happiness and contentment in life.
But how do we do that? A friend of mine is fond of reminding us that“survivability depends upon  43 .”And then there’s Chris the California surf-rat, who once told me that the answer to life’s problems can be  44 in four words:“Go with the flow.”
I’m not exactly sure , but I think Chris was saying that life is a series of   45 —both good and bad . No matter how excellent your skill , there will always be life-influencing factors over which you have no  46 . The truly successful person expects the unexpected, and is prepared to    47 adjustments should the need arise-as it almost  48 does.
That doesn't mean you don't keep trying to make all your  49 come true．It just means that when things come up that aren't  50 in your plan，you work around them—and then you move on。
“Change，indeed，is painful，  51 ever needful，”said philosopher Thomas Carlyle．“And if memory has its force and worth，so also has  52 .”
we're going to miss Mark. But rather than stay on the  53 of our parting，we'll focus on our hopes for a brighter future－for him，and for us．And then we'll go out and   54  
everything we can to make that future happen．  55 our plans change--again.

Tom was a middle-aged leather trader whose repeated failure in career
made him a depressed man, often complaining that others had been playing tricks on him. One day he told his wife he was so   16  with the city that he had to leave.
So his family moved to    17   city. It was in the evening of aweekend when Tom and his wife were busy   18  up their new home
   19 the light suddenly went out. So they had to  20  work. Tom was regretful to have forgotten bringing along candles and had to wait   21 in a low mood. Just then he heard slight, hesitant knocks on his door that sounded clear in the   22 night.
“Who’s it?” he wondered, since Tom had no   23 in the new city.
And this was the moment he especially disliked being disturbed.   24 , he went reluctantly to the door and opened it impatiently.

He opened it and found the same girl outside. But this time she was holding two candles, saying, “My grandma told me the new neighbor downstairs might need candles. She   29  me here to give you these.” Tom was very   30  by what he saw. When he became fully aware, he said, “Thank you and your  31  . God bless you!”
At that moment he suddenly realized what caused his   32 in life. It
was his  33 and harshness(刻薄)with other people. The person who had cheated him in life was   34   nobody else but himself, for he had fallen for his unsympathetic   35 .

Have you ever wanted to feel like you were in a western film? Or maybe you wanted to feel like you were a pioneer traveling the west? It is possible to experience such things during a Wild West vacation! Here are four of the best Wild West vacation locations available:
Walk the Lewis and Clark Trail
Walk some or all of the 3,700 miles trail that was traversed by Mariwether Lewis and William Clark, two of the world’s greatest explorers. Though not all the trails are marked, there are various stops that have been preserved by various historic societies. There is also a coach (長途客車) that makes a 16-day trek following the trail. This begins in St. Louis, Missouri, and ends in Astoria, Oregon.
Venture Route 66
Take a tour or go to see it yourself — ride on the famous Route 66. The road is nearly 2,500 miles long. Harley Davidson offers motorcycle tours that last two weeks. Route 66 will provide an experience that may only be found on the open road. The historic road is still well taken care of.
Visit the Grand Canyon
Visit the greatest canyon in the world, located in Northern Arizona. Raft down the Colorado River, or hike the various trails that run throughout the canyon. If walking is not your thing, there are donkey and horse riding adventures available. In addition, there are motorized boats that float down through the canyon in a week’s time.
Visit Deadwood
Located in South Dakota, Deadwood is a historic landmark. It is the kind of town that comes to mind when one thinks of an old western film. Actors who act as gunslingers (殺手) will often be seen in the streets playing their roles. Winter activities are popular in this old town, and there is always something to do.
小題1:The underlined word “trek” (Para 2) can be replaced by      .

Sometimes people cheat in daily life. When people cheat, it’s not fair to other people, like the kids who studied for the test or who were the true winners of a game.
Many people like the action of cheating. It makes difficult things seem easy, like getting all the right answers on the test. But it doesn’t solve the problem of not knowing the material and it won’t help on the next test --- unless the person cheats again.
Some people lose respect for cheaters and think less of them. The cheaters themselves may feel bad because they know they are not really earning that good grade. And, if they get caught cheating, they will be in trouble at school, and maybe at home, too.
Some kids cheat because they’re busy or lazy and they want to get good grades without spending the time studying. Other kids might feel like they can’t pass the test without cheating. Even when there seems to be a “good reason” for cheating, cheating isn’t a good idea.
If you were sick or upset about something the night before and couldn’t study, it would be better to talk with the teacher about this. And if you don’t have enough time to study for a test because of swim practice, you need to talk with your parents about how to balance swimming and school.
A kid who thinks cheating is the only way to pass a test needs to talk with the teacher and his or her parents so they can find some solutions(解決辦法) together. Talking about these problems and working them out will feel better than cheating.
小題1:The author thinks that when kids cheat in class, _______.
A．teachers should punish them
B．it does harm to their heath
C．it is unfair to other people
D．teachers shouldn’t stop them at once
小題2:Some students like cheating mainly because_________.
A．the material in the test is very difficult
B．they want to do better than the others
C．cheating can make hard things seem very easy
D．they have little time to study their lessons
小題3:The fourth paragraph mainly tells us______.
A．cheating isn’t a good idea
B．some kids don’t spend the time studying
C．some kids can’t pass the test without cheating
D．why kids cheat in the test
小題4:We can learn from the passage______.
A．cheaters are often thought highly of
B．people show no respect for those who cheat
C．parents whose kids cheat are often in trouble
D．kids cheat in the test because of swim practice

My friend Jim and I finally decided to spend our 14 days off in the eastern country.We were arranged to stay with a local family, which made it possible for us to share a real life experience with the locals and in return bring ourselves a richer experience of the native culture and tradition.
In the company of one of our well-informed local tour leaders, we started one of the trips to the nearby town . As we were passing elephants, we stopped , confused by the fact that these huge creatures were being held by a small rope tied to their front legs . No chains, no cages. It was obvious that these elephants could, at any time, break away from the ropes they were tied to but for some reason, they did not . My friend went up to the trainer and asked why these beautiful animals just stood there and made no attempt to get away. “Well,”he said , “When they were young and much smaller we used the same size rope to tie them and at that age, it was enough to hold them. As they grow up, they are accustomed to believing that they can not break away. They believe that the rope can hold them, so they never try to break free. We were amazed . These animals could at any time break away from their ropes but just because they believed they couldn’t, they were stuck right where they were.
Like the elephants, how many of us go through life hanging onto a belief that we can not do something , simply because we failed at it once before ? How many of us are being held by outdated belief that no longer serves us ? How many of us have avoided trying something new because of a limited belief? Worse still , how many of us are being held back by someone else’s limiting beliefs? Your attempt may fail but never fail to make an attempt.
小題1:What was the author most interested in during his visit?
A．The local people and elephants
B．The local culture and tradition
C．The history of the eastern country
D．The local food and scenery
小題2:What amazed them was to see__________.
A．the trainer playing skillfully with the huge animals
B．the trainer attracting the visitors’s attention in such a way
C．the huge elephants tied only by a small rope
D．the elephants being trained with small ropes
小題3:The elephants never tried to get away because_______.
A．they believed they couldn’t break away from the small ropes
B．they got used to being raised and controlled by human beings
C．they had a very close relationship with their trainers
D．it was hard to break away from the strong and powerful ropes
小題4:The author holds the view that _______.
A．people should never fail to make an attempt or get held by false beliefs
B．people should travel around and try new things
C．a(chǎn)nimals should be trained to obey their masters
D．it’s necessary to train creatures when they are young
