I was doing some last-minute Christmas shopping in a toy store. A nicely dressed little girl was looking through the teddy bears beside her father     38   she saw a little boy walk in and stop in front of the Pokémon toys. His jacket was obviously too small. He had money in his hand.     39  , it looked no more than five dollars at most. He was with his father as well, and     40   picking up the Pokémon video games. Each time he showed one to his father, his father      41  his head, “No”.
Rather    42   , the boy gave up the video games and chose a book of stickers     43  . After they walked away, the little girl ran over to the Pokémon video games. She excitedly picked up one     44  on top of the others, and hurried down toward the check-out. I picked up my purchases(購買物) and     45  the girl and her father.
Then, much to the little girl’s     46  , the little boy and his father got in line behind her and me. After the video was paid for and bagged, the little girl     47  it back to the cashier(收銀員) and     48   something to her. The cashier smiled and put the     49 under the counter(柜臺). I was putting things in my bag when the little boy came up to the cashier. The cashier said, “Congratulations. You’re my hundredth customer today, and you win a prize!” and she handed the boy the Pokémon game. The boy could only    50  in disbelief. It was, he said, exactly what he had wanted! The little girl and her father had been standing at the doorway, and I saw the biggest and prettiest smile on that little girl I have ever seen in my life.
I suddenly understood that the world is not     51  into the strong who care and the     52  who are cared for. We must each in turn care and be cared.

Robert Spring, a 19th century forger (偽造簽字者), was as good at his profession that he was able to make his living for 15 years by selling false signatures of famous Americans. Spring was born in England in 1813 and arrived in Philadelphia in 1858 to open a bookstore. At first he make some money by selling his small but genuine of early U.S. autographs (親筆簽字). Discovering his ability at copying handwriting, he began imitating signatures of George Washington and Ban Franklin and writing them on the title pages of old books. To make less the chance of detection (發(fā)覺), he sent his forgeries (偽造物) to England and Canada for sale and circulation (銷售).
Forgers have a hard time selling their products. A forger can't approach a respectable buyer but must deal with people who don't have much knowledge in the field. Forgers have many ways to make their work look real. For example, they buy old books to use the aged paper of the title page, and they can treat paper and ink with chemicals.
In Spring's time, right after the Civil War, Britain was still fond of the Southern states, so Spring invented a respectable maiden lady known as Miss Fanny Jackson, the only daughter of General "Stonewall" Jackson. For several years Miss Fanny's economic problems forced her to sell a great number of letters and manuscripts belonging to her famous father. Spring had to work very hard to satisfy the demand. All this activity did not prevent Spring from dying in poverty, leaving sharp-eye experts the difficult task of separating this forgeries from the originals.
小題1:Why did Spring sell his autographs in England and Canada?
A.There was a greater demand there than in America.
B.There was less chance of being detected there.
C.Britain was Spring's birthplace.
D.The price were higher in England and Canada.
小題2:After the Civil War, there was a great demand in Britain for _______.
A.Southern money
B.signatures of George Washington and Ben Franklin
C.Southern manuscripts and letters
D.Civil War battle plans
小題3:Robert Spring spent 15 years _______.
A.running a bookstore in Philadelphia
B.corresponding with Miss Fanny Jackson
C.as a forger
D.as a respectable dealer
小題4:According to the passage, forgeries are usually sold to _______.
A.sharp-eyed expertsB.persons who aren't experts
C.book dealersD.owner of the old books
小題5:Who was Miss Fanny Jackson?
A.The only daughter of General "Stonewall" Jackson.
B.A little-known girl who sold her father's papers to Robert Spring.
C.Robert Spring's daughter.
D.An imaginary person created by Spring.

Frank Woolworth was born in Rodman, New York, in 1852. His family were very poor farmers, and there was never enough to eat. Frank decided he did not want to be a farmer. He took a short business course, and went to work as a salesman in a large city.
Woolworth realized he had a natural skill for showing goods to attract people’s interest, but he soon learned something more important. One day his boss told him to sell some odds and ends (小商品) for as much as he could get. Frank put all these things on one table with a sign which said FIVE CENTS EACH. People fought and pushed to buy the things and the table was soon cleared.
Soon afterwards, Woolworth opened his own store, selling goods at five and ten cents. But he had another lesson to learn before he became successful. That is, if you want to make money by selling low-price goods, you have to buy them in large quantities directly from the factories. Once, for example, Woolworth went to Germany and placed an order for knives. The order was so large that the factory had to keep running 24 hours a day for a whole year. In this way, the price of the knives was cut down by half.
By 1919, Woolworth had over 1000 stores in the US and Canada, and opened his first store in London. He made many millions and his name became famous throughout the world. He always run his business according to strict rules, of which the most important was: “ THE CUSTOMER IS ALWAYS RIGHT.”
小題1: Frank took a short business course in order to _________.
A.get away from the farmB.learn something from a salesman
C.earn more money for his familyD.get enough to eat.
小題2: Frank sold the odds and ends quickly because _________.
A.he had put the goods on a table in a very nice way.
B.he cut down the price by half
C.he knew how to get people to buy his goods.
D.the sign he put on the table was well designed.
小題3: The price of the knives was cut down by half because ________.
A.the factory workers worked 24 hours a day.
B.knives were ordered in large quantities directly from the factory.
C.the knives were made in Germany, where labour was cheap.
D.the knives were produced in one factory.
小題4: ________ make Woolworth a world-famous man.
A.His business skills and his wealth
B.The low price of the goods he sold
C.His trip to Germany and his huge order of knives
D.His natural skill for showing things
小題5: The belief that “ The customer is always right” suggests that ________.
A.whenever there is a quarrel between the customer and shop assistant, the customers are always right.
B.If you want to succeed, the rule is the only way.
C.stores must always follow the customer’s orders if they want to make more money.
D.stores should do their best to meet the customer’s needs if they want to be successful.

It was Monday. Mrs. Smith’s dog was hungry, but there was not any meat in the house. Considering that there was no better way, Mrs. Smith took a piece of paper, and wrote the following words on it “Give my dog half a pound of meat.” Then she gave the paper to her dog and said gently, “Take this to the butcher(屠夫), and he’s going to give you your lunch today.” Holding the piece of paper in its mouth, the dog ran to the butcher’s. It gave the paper to the butcher. The butcher read it carefully, recognized that it was really the lady’s handwriting and soon did it as he was asked to.

The next day, the dog came again exactly at noon. And as usual, it brought a piece of paper in the mouth.

Most dog owners feel that their dogs are their best friends. Almost everyone likes dogs because they try hard to please their owners. One of my favorite stories is about a dog who wanted his owner to please him.
One of my friends has a large German shepherd ( 牧羊狗) named Jack. Every Sunday afternoon, my friend takes Jack for a walk in the park. Jack likes these long walks very much. One Sunday afternoon, a young man came to visit my friend. He stayed a long time, and he talked and talked.
Soon it was time for my friend to take Jack for his walk, but the visitor didn’t leave. Jack became very worried about his walk in the park. He walked around the room several times and then sat down directly in front of the visitor and looked at him. But the visitor paid no attention. He continued talking. Finally, Jack couldn’t stand it any longer. He went out of the room and came back a few minutes later. He sat down again in front of the visitor, but this time he held the man’s hat in his mouth.
 German shepherds aren’t the only intelligent dogs. Another intelligent dog is a Seeing Eye dog. This is a special dog which helps blind people walk along the streets and do many other things.
