It was Mother’s Day and I was shopping at the local supermarket with my five-year-old son, Tenyson. As we were          , we realized that only minutes earlier an          woman had fallen over at the entrance and hit her head on the ground.          was with her, but there was blood everywhere and the woman was embarrassed and clearly in shock.          a lot of people stopped to help out.
         we were walking towards the scene, Tenyson became very          about what had happened to the elderly couple. He          to me, “Mom, it’s not much fun falling over in front of         .” Seeing that there was a flower stall（攤位）at the front of the supermarket, he added, “Why shouldn’t we          the lady a flower? It will make her feel better.” I was          that he’d come up with this          idea. So we went over and told the flower seller          we wanted. “Just take it,” she replied. “I          take your money for such a wonderful         .”
By now medical staff had arrived, and were          the injured woman. We gave the flower to the woman’s husband and I told him it was          my son. At that, the old man started crying and said, “Thank you very much.” He then turned to me, “You have a          son. Happy Mother’s Day to you.”
The man bent down and gave his wife the flower, telling ger who it was from.          being badly hurt, the old lady looked up at Tenyson with          in her eyes and gave him a little          .

     One of the most famous basketball players in the New Castle ' s history was paralyzed(癱瘓的) in a wheelchair one day and was walking the next. Citizens of New Castle simply refer   to it as  " The Miracle" .

第二節(jié)簡(jiǎn)答題（共4小題; 10分）
閱讀短文，根據(jù)所要求的字?jǐn)?shù)回答問(wèn)題。
Almost everybody in America will spend a part of his or her life behind a shopping cart (購(gòu)物手推車(chē)). They will, in a lifetime, push the chrome-plated contraptions many miles. But few will know—or even think to ask—who it was that invented them.
Sylvan N. Goldman invented the shopping cart in 1937. At that time he was in the supermarket business. Every day he would see shoppers lugging (吃力地?cái)y帶) groceries around in baskets they had to carry.
One day Goldman suddenly had the idea of putting baskets on wheels. The wheeled baskets would make shopping much easier for his customers, and would help to attract more business.
On June 4, 1937, Goldman’s first carts were ready for use in his market. He was terribly excited on the morning of that day as customers began arriving. He couldn’t wait to see them using his invention.
But Goldman was disappointed. Most shoppers gave the carts a long look, but hardly anybody would give them a try.
After a while, Goldman decided to ask customers why they weren’t using his carts. “Don’t you think this arm is strong enough to carry a shopping basket?” one shopper replied.
But Goldman wasn’t beaten yet. He knew his carts would be a great success if only he could persuade people to give them a try. To this end, Goldman hired a group of people to push carts around his market and pretend they were shopping! Seeing this, the real customers gradually began copying the phony (假冒的) customers.{007}
As Goldman had hoped, the carts were soon attracting larger and larger numbers of customers to his market. But not only did more people come—those who came bought more. With larger, easier-to-handle baskets, customers unconsciously bought a greater number of items than before.
Today’s shopping carts are five times larger than Goldman’s original model. Perhaps that’s one reason Americans today spend more than five times as much money on food each year as they did before 1937—before the coming of the shopping cart.
86. What was the purpose of Goldman’s invention? (No more than 13 words)
__________________________________________________________.
87. Why was Goldman disappointed at first? (No more than 10 words)
__________________________________________________________.
88. Why did Goldman hire people to push carts around his market? (No more than 10 words)

89. What do you think of Goldman? (No more than 20 words)   _______________________________________________________________________.

Growing up the daughter of an outstanding educator，Andrea Peterson knew at a young age that she wanted to serve others.It was with this mindset that she started to pursue a degree in medicine.However，while visiting her brothers who were away at college studying music education，she realized that she was drawn to teach music，too.
In her ten years at Granite Falls，she has revitalized the music programs at both the elementary and high school levels，to the extent that an additional music faculty member was hired by the district to assist with the workload.The growth of the music program in Granite Falls School District has encouraged students to participate in country，state and national music competitions，and won numerous prizes for the district.
Teaching music is only a part of Peterson's instruction－it serves as a vehicle to other areas.“Music is an amazing tool to unlock students' potential.The most visible benefit from their success in music is their increased confidence and self?es?teem，” Peterson said.“However，I don't believe it is the only benefit，nor the most powerful.It is truly exciting to see how my music teaching can transfer to other classrooms.” With this philosophy，Peterson introduced a cross?curriculum program，wherein she takes lessons taught in other classes，such as English and math，and expands upon them in an eight?week unit.
One of the most popular projects in Peterson's classes is the creation and performance of a musical，and whereby students create a play from one of the books they have read in another class.Students work together to choose the music that best fits with the overall feel of the play and then perform it for the greater community.“Through Andrea's efforts these kids have helped to put Granite Falls，Washington，on the map for musical talents.Parents，staff and community members continue to be in awe of what she is able to bring forth from the children，”said Debra Rose Howell，a colleague of Peterson's at Monte Crisco Elementary School.

My nephew’s 10-year-old son came for a visit one hot, July weekend. I persuaded him to 　　inside and joined him in a game. After　　for an hour, I suggested that we relax for a while. I fell into my favorite recliner（躺椅）to let my neck muscles relax. He'd slipped out of the room and I was catching a few 　　moments of peace and quiet.
"Look，Alice,” he said　　as he ran over to the chair where I was sitting "I found a kite. Could we go outside and 　　it?"
Glancing out a nearby window, I noticed it was　　outside. “I'm sorry, Tripper,.” I said, sad to see his 　　eyes. "The wind is not blowing today. The kite won't fly.”
The　　10-year-old replied, “I think it's 　　 enough. I can get it to fly,” he answered as he ran out to the back door 　　.
Up and down in the yard he ran, pulling the kite 　　to a small length of string. He ran back and forth，as hard as his ten year-old 　　 would carry him, looking back　　at the kite behind. After about ten minutes of 　　determination, he came back in.

As more and more people speak the global languages of English, Chinese, Spanish, and Arabic, other languages are rapidly disappearing. In fact, half of the 6,000-7,000 languages spoken around the world today will likely die out by the next century, according to the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO).
In an effort to prevent language loss, scholars from a number of organizations- UNESCO and National Geographic among them –have for many years been documenting dying languages and the cultures they reflect.
Mark Turin, a scientist at the Macmillan Center, Yale University, who specializes in the languages and oral traditions of the Himalayas, is following in that tradition. His recently published book, A Grammar of Thangmi with an Ethnolinguistic Introduction to the Speakers and Their Culture, grows out of his experience living, looking and raising a family in a village in Nepal.
Documenting the Tangmi language and culture is just a starting point for Turin, who seeks to include other languages and oral traditions across the Himalayans reaches of India, Nepal, Bhutan, and China. But he is not content to simply record these voices before they disappear without record.
At the University of Cambridge Turin discovered a wealth of important materials- including photographs, films, tap recordings, and field notes- which had remained unstudied and were badly in need of care and protection.
Now, through the two organizations that he has founded-the Digital Himalaya Project and the World Oral Literature Project- Turin has started a campaign to make such documents, found in libraries and stores around the world, available not just to scholars but to the youngers.
Generations of communities from whom the materials were originally collected.Thanks to digital technology and the widely available Internet. Turin notes,the endangered languages can be saved and reconnected with speech communities.
小題1:Many scholars are making efforts to _____.
A．promote global languages
B．rescue the disappearing languages
C．search for language communities
D．set up languages research organizations.
小題2:What does “that tradition” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A．Having first records of the languages
B．Writing books on language searching
C．Telling stories about language users
D．Linking with the native speakers
小題3:What is Turin’s book based on?
A．The cultural statics in India.
B．The documents available at Yale.
C．His language research in Britain.
D．His personal experience in Nepal.
小題4:Which of the following best describe Turin’s  Work?
A．Write sell and donate.
B．Record,repeat and reward.
C．Collect,protect and reconnect.
D．Design, experiment and report.

It was one of those terribly hot days in Baltimore. Needless to say, it was too hot to do anything outside. But it was also scorching in our apartment. This was 1962, and I would not live in a place with an air conditioner for another ten years. So my brother and I decided to leave the apartment to find someplace indoors. He suggested we could see a movie. It was a brilliant plan.
Movie theaters were one of the few places you could sit all day and—most important —sit in air conditioning. In those days, you could buy one ticket and sit through two movies. Then, the theater would show the same two movies again. If you wanted to, you could sit through them twice. Most people did not do that, but the manager at our theater. Mr. Bellow did not mind if you did.
That particular day, my brother and I sat through both movies twice, trying to escape the heat. We bought three bags of popcorn and three sodas each. Then, we sat and watched The Music Man followed by The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance. We’d already seen the second movie once before. It had been at the theater since January, because Mr. Bellow loved anything with John Wayne in it.
We left the theater around 8, just before the evening shows began. But we returned the next day and saw the same two movies again, twice more. And we did it the next day too. Finally, on the fourth day, the heat wave broke.
Still, to this day I can sing half the songs in The Music Man and recite half of John Wayne and Jimmy Stewart’s dialogue from The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance! Those memories are some of the few I have of the heat wave of 1962. They’re really memories of the screen, not memories of my life.
小題1:In which year did the author first live in a place with an air conditioner?
A．1952B．1962C．1972D．1982
小題2:What does the underlined word”It” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A．The heat
B．The theater.
C．The Music Man
D．The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance
小題3:What do we know about Mr. Bellow? 
A．He loved children very much.
B．He was a fan of John Wayne.
C．He sold air conditioners.
D．He was a movie star.
小題4:Why did the author and his/her brother see the same movies several times?
A．The two movies were really wonderful.
B．They wanted to avoid the heat outside.
C．The manager of the theater was friendly.
D．They liked the popcorn and the soda at the theater.
小題5:What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A．The author turned out to be a great singer.
B．The author enjoyed the heat wave of 1962.
C．The author’s life has been changed by the two movies.
D．The author considers the experience at the theater unforgettable.

“Just ate chicken feet for lunch. ”These were the words I wrote on my blog yesterday. By the next day there were hundreds of comments from my friends. They included “OH MY GOD! That is so disgusting(令人厭惡的)! ”, “What were they like? ” and “Why can’t you eat sandwiches like everyone else? ”

To Chinese people, chicken feet are a normal snack. To my friends in Britain, the thought of eating a chicken’s feet is weird(不可思議的). As weird, in fact, as eating a bullfrog(牛蛙), scorpion(蝎子), snake, or turtle.
But if there are two things I love more than anything else in life, they are trying new things and food.
I arrived in Beijing five months ago. Since then, I’ve searched for the “weirdest” foods so I can try them, then treat my friends to some “virtual eating”on my blog.
One weekend, I went to Wangfujing, Beijing’s “snack street”. The trip gave me tons of blog materials.
“I chose a stick with three live, wriggling scorpions on it, ”I wrote. “And it was pretty good. The scorpion was warm and crispy. The legs did have a tendency to get stuck between one’s teeth, however. What’s more, I am sure scorpion stung(蜇傷)me twice with its tail in revenge. ”
Next came snake: “A bit like a cross between fish and chicken, with a slightly rubbery texture(彈性口感)and meaty taste. ”
Some people were actually angry when I ate turtle soup—especially when I posted pictures showing the poor little guy’s head staring sadly up at us from the bowl. “I am never speaking to you again, ”wrote one former friend.
Still, I will continue my culinary quest(美食征程).
Next on my list is starfish, though I feel I should have some vegetables too—algae, maybe.
So what am I eating, tonight, you may ask. Pizza. Well, a girl’s gotta have a break sometimes.
