閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C和D)中,選出最佳選項。
At the age of sixteen, I joined a volunteer group with my dad. I went on my first volunteer project in West Virginia. On the night we arrived, we discovered that “our family” was living in a trailer(拖車) that was in poor condition. A crew had been working on it for two weeks, but every time they finished one problem, another surfaced.
We decided the only reasonable solution was to build a new house – something unusual but necessary under these circumstances. The family was overjoyed with their new house that was twenty by thirty feet with three bedrooms, a bath and a kitchen.
On Tuesday of that week, while we ate lunch together, I asked the family’s three boys, Josh, Eric and Ryan, "What do you want for your new room?" Expecting toys and other gadgets that children usually ask for, we were surprised when Josh responded, "I just want a bed."
The boys had never slept in a bed! They were accustomed to plastic mats. That night we had a meeting and decided that beds would be the perfect gift. On Thursday night, a few adults in our group drove to the nearest city and bought beds and new bedding.
When we saw the delivery truck coming, we told the family about the surprise. We could hardly contain ourselves. It was like watching excited children on Christmas morning.
That afternoon, as we fitted the frames of the beds tog tether, Eric ran into the house to watch us. Too dirty to enter his room, he observed with wide-eyed enthusiasm from the doorway.
As my father slipped a pillowcase onto one of the pillows, Eric asked, "What is that?"
"A pillow," she replied.
"What do you do with it?" Eric continued to ask.
"When you go to sleep, you put your head on it,” I answered softly. Tears came to our eyes as she handed Eric the pillow.
"Oh . . . that's soft," he said, hugging it tightly.
Now, when my sister or I start to ask for something that seems urgent, my Dad gently asks, "Do you have a pillow?"
We know exactly what he means.
56.The writer’s first volunteer project was         .
A.working on a poor trailer       B.helping a poor family
C.donating beds and bedding      D.dealing with a housing problem
57.On bearing Josh’s answer, the writer was shocked because         .
A.the family lived in a trailer     B.he expected to get some toys
C.he didn’t know what a bed was      D.the boys had no bed to sleep in
58.From the passage, we can learn that Eric had never seen      before.
A.a(chǎn) trailer    B.a(chǎn) truck      C.a(chǎn) pillow    D.a(chǎn) house
59.By saying “Do you have a pillow?”, the writer’s father means that        .
A.what they want to get may be unnecessary
B.they should not waste money on small things
C.they should do more volunteer work for the poor
D.what he will buy is not what they want but a pillow

JeawGilles was a millionaire.But Tuesday night,he was sleeping in his car.
Jean-Gilles was the owner of the Peace of Mind Hotel in Jacrnel,Haiti, a three-story,30-room building in a quiet tropical valley on Haiti’s southern coast,25 miles from the noises of the capital,Port-au-Prince.

B
We once had a poster competition in our fifth grade art class.
“You could win prizes,’’our teacher told US as she wrote the poster information on the blackboard. She passed out sheets of construction paper while continuing,“The first prize is ten dollars. You just have to make sure that the words on the blackboard appear somewhere on your poster. ”
We studied the board critically. Some of US looked with one eye and held up certain colors against the blackboard,rocking the sheets to the fight or left while we conjured up our designs. Others twisted their hair around their fingers or chewed their erasers while deep in thought. We had plans for that ten—dollar grand prize,each and every one of US. I'm going to spend mine on candies,one hopeful would announce,while another practiced looking serious,wise and rich.
Everyone in the class made a poster. Some of us used parts of those fancy paper napkins, while others used nothing but colored construction paper. Some of US used big designs,and some of us preferred to gather our art tidily down in one comer of our poster and let the space draw the viewer's attention to it. Some of US would wander past the good students’ desks and then return to our own projects with a growing sense of hopelessness. It was yet another grown-up trick of the soil they seemed especially fond of。making all of US believe we had a fair chance,and then always—always—rewarding the same old winners.
I believe I drew a sailboat,but I can’t say that with any certainty. I made it. I admired it. I determined it to be the very best of all of the posters I had seen,and then I turned it in.
Minutes passed.
No one came along to give me the grand prize,and then someone distracted me,and I probably never would have thought about that poster again.
I was still sitting at my desk,thinking,What poster? When the teacher gave me an envelope with a ten-dollar bill in it and everyone in the class applauded for me.
51.. What was the teacher's requirement for the poster?
A. It must appear in time.
B. It must be done in class.
C. It must be done on a construction sheet.
D. It must include the words on the blackboard.
52. The underlined phrase in paragraph 3 most probably means _____________.
A. formed an idea for        B. made an outline for
C. made some space for      D. chose some colors for
53. After the teacher’s words,all the students in the class _________.
A. 1ooked very serious                 B. thought they would be rich
C. began to think about their designs       D. began to play games
54. After seeing the good students’ designs,some students _________.
A. 1oved their own designs more
B. thought they had a fair chance
C. put their own designs in a comer
D. thought they would not win the prize
55. We can infer from the passage that the author ______________.
A. enjoyed grown-up tricks very much
B. 1oved poster competitions very much
C. felt surprised to win the competition
D. became wise and rich after the competition

   Will you get a good job? What will you do? Many new graduates feel lost when they consider the endless list of career choices. They’ve invested a lot of money for their diploma(文憑)and now an important question stares them in the fact.
I’ve seen so many now graduates who do not know how to use the degree they have just earned. An example was Dave,who loved sports and had played baseball throughout his college years. He had his heart set on working for Nike. But he had never made clear in his own mind what kind of job he could do for Nike,so nothing ever happened. Another example was Allison,who was a history major. She wanted to work as an event planner,but unfortunately,no one hired her. Why? No experience.
Failing to do some solid career exploration first,to get a clear idea of the types of jobs you can do,is a big error that many college students make. After our suggestion,Dave and Allison both found their jobs. To ensure a brighter future,follow these effective strategies:
—Make educated career choices. Identify the job you want. Conduct research. Ask parents to advise you on actual job duties. Consider what your natural talents are,and look for positions where you can use them.
—Don’t rely on the Internet. Networking is an effective tool—be sure it’s a job—hunting strategy you use. New studies from the Department of Labor state that only 4% of job-seekers found their job on the Internet. The fact is that 63% of all jobs are filled by contacts.
Employers are making quick decisions. Most people lose the job in the first minute of the interview. It’s deadly to let the employers focus quickly on how well you can perform the job.
—Practice your interviewing skills. Be ready for the tough questions by first writing out good answers to possible questions and having a role-playing interview with your friend.
60.What does the author seem to be most probable?
A.A job-hunter.        B.A magazine editor.
C.A website owner.       D.A job-seeking adviser.
61.In order to be well prepared for the interview, you’d better ____________.
A.surf the Internet for contacts
B.get along well with your workmates
C.practice the interview for several times
D.take care of your dress
62.According to the text it is suggested that Dave should ____________.
A.let others know what he can do for them
B.study further to get a higher degree
C.give up his interest in playing basketball
D.take part-time jobs first
63.For Allison, she should ____________.
A.find a job in another field
B.find some work to gain work experience
C.not tell the employer her major
D.offer more personal information

A
Prana, our beautiful golden retriever (金毛獵犬) whose name means "breath of life", isn't with us any more. She died of cancer several years ago. But, while sharing our home, she brought such joy and love into our lives that we still miss her.
There are so many wonderful stories about the love in this dog, but my favorite is the one that created an indelible image of how to graciously give what is needed without reserve (儲備).
It was an autumn day in Minnesota. But the weather didn' t seem to know the difference between fall and winter. Unexpectedly, we were hit with a big snow fall, for which no one was prepared.
We have two apple trees in our backyard Prana loved apples. When she went outside, she'd grab an apple, stick it far back in her mouth, and sneak it into the house to save for enjoyment later. The apples had been on the ground and were often muddy so I wasn't always happy that Prana had brought them into the house. Sensing my disapproval, she would turn her head so I wouldn't see her hidden treasure. It was our little game.
On the day that it snowed too early in the season, Prana went outside and I watched her from the window. I noticed that she was crazily digging holes and bringing the apples to the surface so they could be seen above the snow. I wondered why she was doing this. She seemed to be entirely busy digging up as many apples as possible during her yard time.
When I called her back into the house, she had her usual one apple in her mouth. About five minutes later, I looked outside ---- the yard was completely covered with birds. Prana had dug up all those apples for her bird and squirrel friends to eat. She knew that they wouldn't have stored enough food to survive such an early winter!
Tears sprung to my eyes as I witnessed this beautiful act of unconditional love from an animal who taught us how to serve life with such grace.
56. We still miss Prana because______.
A. she liked playing with the birds      
B. she always brought apples into the house
C. she made our lives enjoyable and full of love 
D. she dug up apples for her bird friends
57. The underlined word indelible in Paragraph 2 means______.
A. unimportant      B. unbelievable     C. impossible        D. unforgettable
58. Prana dug up as many apples from the snow as possible so that______.
A. she could help her owner store away many apples
B. her bird and squirrel friends could have food in cold weather
C. she could have fun in her yard time
D. she could have something to play with in the house
59. I was deeply moved by Prana because______.
A. she gave what is needed with grace
B. she dug up so many apples in such cold winter
C she gave unconditional love to me with such grace
D. she tried her best to save the birds from the snow
