Two brothers worked together on a farm. One was married and had a large    41  .The other had no wife yet. Although they lived in different houses, they shared everything they got from their farm.
One day, the single brother said to himself, “It’s not    42   that we share all the rice. I’m   43   and I need less than my brother.” So, every night he took a bag of rice from his store-room and    44  across the field    45   their houses, putting it into his brother’s store-room.
At the same time, the married brother thought, “It’s not fair to share all the rice. I’m married and I have my wife and children to   46  me when I am   47 . However, my brother has no one to take care of his   48   .” So, each night he also took a bag of rice and put it into his brother’s store-room.
Several months passed by. They found    49  strange that their rice never became less. Then, one dark night the two brothers ran into each other. Slowly they began to understand what was happening. Their bags fell onto the ground and tears    50  their eyes at once.

More than 1.5 billion people around the world live without electricity. Finding better ways to bring light to the poor is the goal of researchers like Professor Irvine. In the late 1990s, he was working in Nepal when his return flight was canceled. A delay gave him time to take a fourteen-day hiking trip in the Himalayas.
One day he looked in the window of a school and noticed how dark it was. This is a common problem for millions of children around the world. Many families use kerosene oil (煤油) lamps. There are many problems with these lamps. They produce only a small amount of light. They are dangerous to breathe. And they are a big fire danger, causing many injuries and deaths each year. Kerosene costs less than other forms of lighting, but it is still costly in poor countries. Professor Irvine says many people spend over 100 dollars a year on the fuel.
When he returned to Canada, he began researching ways to provide safe and clean lighting. He began experimenting with light-emitting diodes (發(fā)光二極管), LEDs, at his lab. As a professor of renewable energy, he already knew about the technology. Light-emitting diodes are small glass lamps that use much less electricity than traditional bulbs (燈泡) and last much longer. He used a one-watt bright white LED made in Japan. He found it on the Internet and connected it to a bicycle-powered generator (發(fā)電機(jī)). He remembers thinking it was so bright that a child could read by the light of a single diode.
In 2000, after much research and many experiments, he returned to Nepal to put the systems into homes. Now the homes of 25,000 people in 51 countries have been equipped with it. “The one-time cost of our system which basically lives forever, as well as the solar panel — is less than one hundred dollars. So, one year of kerosene would pay for a solid-state lighting system,” he said. Now his aim is to develop a lower-cost lighting system. In January, Irvine is leaving the University of Calgary. He has also decided to start his own company in India.
小題1:We can learn from the second paragraph that kerosene oil lamps ______.
A．cost more than other forms of lighting
B．have damaged children’s eyesight
C．have wasted only a little fuel
D．have a lot of disadvantages
小題2:Irvine connected a white LED to a bicycle-powered generator to prove ______.
A．whether it can work without electricity
B．whether it can work well with less electricity
C．whether it can last longer than a generator
D．whether it is brighter than a traditional bulb
小題3:We can learn from the text that Irvine ______.
A．likes India rather than Nepal
B．is good at making new kinds of bulbs
C．is giving up his job in the university
D．is to earn much money from his company

Lisa was running late. Lisa, 25, had a lot to do at work, plus visitors on the way: her parents were coming in for Thanksgiving from her hometown. But as she hurried down the subway stairs, she started to feel uncomfortably warm. By the time she got to the platform, Lisa felt weak and tired—maybe it hadn’t been a good idea to give blood the night before, she thought. She rested herself against a post close to the tracks.
Several yards away, Frank, 43, and his girlfriend, Jennifer, found a spot close to where the front of the train would stop. They were deep in discussion about a house they were thinking of buying.
But when he heard the scream, followed by someone yelling, “Oh, my God, she fell in!” Frank didn’t hesitate(猶豫). He jumped down to the tracks and ran some 40 feet toward the body lying on the rails. “No! Not you! ”his girlfriend shouted after him.
She was right to be alarmed. By the time Frank reached Lisa, he could feel the tracks shaking and see the light coming. The train was about 20 seconds from the station.
It was hard to lift her. She was just out. But he managed to raise her four feet to the platform(站臺) so that bystanders could hold her by the legs and drag her away from the edge. That was where Lisa briefly regained consciousness(知覺), felt herself being pulled along the ground, and saw someone else holding her purse.
Lisa thought she’d been robbed. A woman held her hand and a man gave his shirt to help stop the blood pouring from her head. And she tried to talk but she couldn’t, and that was when she realized how much pain she was in.
Police and fire officials soon arrived, and Frank told the story to an officer. Jennifer said her boyfriend was calm on their 40-minute train ride downtown - just as he had been seconds after the rescue(營救), which made her think about her reaction at the time. “I saw the train coming and I was thinking he was going to die,” she explained.
小題1:What was the most probable cause for Lisa’s weakness?
A．She had run a long way.B．She felt hot in the subway.
C．She had done a 1ot of work. D．She had donated blood the night before.
小題2:Why did Jennifer try to stop her boyfriend?
A．Because they would miss their train.
B．Because he didn’t see the train coming.
C．Because she was sure Lisa was hard to lift.
D．Because she was afraid the train would kill him.
小題3: How did Frank save Lisa?
A．By lifting her to the platform.B．By helping her rise to her feet.
C．By pulling her along the ground.D．By dragging her away from the edge.
小題4:When did Lisa become conscious again?
A．When the train was leaving.
B．After she was back on the platform.
C．After the police and fire officials came.
D．When a man was cleaning the blood from her head.
小題5:The passage is intended to _____________
A．warn us of the danger in the subwayB．show us how to save people in the subway
C．tell us about a subway rescueD．report a traffic accident

In the car, I secretly had a look at him through the rearview mirror (后視鏡). He looked sad. “What’s the matter, honey?”“I’m nervous. I don’t know if I’ll be able to learn everything in the first grade. What if I can’t pay attention in class?”

He sat down at his desk and chatted with a few of his classmates. He took a few photos of them (with a camera phone because I didn’t allow him to bring the real camera) and then he said in a very serious manner, “Mom, you can go home now.

It was a week before Christmas, but things were far from cheery． Our task was to deliver as many boxes of food as possible to those in need in Camden, New Jersey． There were no Christmas carolers （唱頌歌的人） walking these streets that were lined with boarded-up （用木板封住的） houses and broken windows． Mothers kept their children close as they hurried down the streets．  It was mid-afternoon, but even the bright sun couldn't warm this place．
Red tickets in the windows marked which houses we were to visit． Our white truck stopped in front of one townhouse and our group knocked on the door． In our arms were boxes filled with ham, bread and other essentials to make the perfect Christmas dinner． Four small faces glanced through the curtains and one exhausted mom answered the door． She seemed embarrassed to be caught in her nightgown with undone hair． She was in her mid-20s, but her rough skin and tired eyes added years．
"Sacred Heart food delivery service," I smiled． "Where can we put this for you?"
She pointed and as we entered the house, I noticed the conditions they lived in． The children climbed around, wearing only diapers （尿布）． There were no carpets, only cold concrete beneath our feet． There was no Christmas tree or decorations． My heart sank． It was so cold, and I found it hard to believe that this was reality for this family． We set the boxes down and the mother grabbed my hand．
"You don't know how much of a blessing this is to me and my family," she said, crying． "We are just getting by．" I opened my arms and gave her a hug．
"Happy holidays!" I replied before I headed out the door． I realized how warm I felt inside．
This was unlike anything I had ever experienced． We cannot help what family we are born into, but we can help each other．
小題1:From Paragraph 1, we can infer that Camden may be a place where ________．
A．the living conditions were terribleB．people had no belief
C．there was no sign of lifeD．little sunshine was received
小題2:What impression did the woman leave on the author?
A．She was shy and cold to visitors．B．She was confident and energetic．
C．She wasn't good at dressing herself up．D．She looked much older than her age．
小題3:By saying "We are just getting by", the woman meant __________．
A．they were waiting for helpB．they were looking for food and clothing
C．they were going to move awayD．they were living a very poor life
小題4:The passage mainly tells us that _______________．
