I used to believe courtesy(礼貌) was a thing of the past. Very seldom have I encountered a courteous human being in this modem era of the so called Generation X.

Recently, I had to change my thinking, when I came face to face with just such a human being. I had gone to a happening coffee place, with two of my grown up daughters. The place was crowded with the usual loud crowd and we had to climb a sleep flight of stairs in order to find an empty table. After enjoying coffee and snacks, we were at the steep descent down the stairs, where the narrow space made climbing down only possible in a single file, with hardly any space for another person to either climb up or come down.

Just as I was in the middle of my descent, a gentleman entered the main entrance of the restaurant which right in front of the staircase. I was sure I would be pushed roughly by this man who will want to go up in a hurry. I kept coming down as fast as I could, holding on to the banister (栏杆), instead of my advanced years. My agile daughters were already down, looking up at me worriedly, hoping I would reach them before the stranger strange started up the stairs, knowing I was a nervous sort.

Nearly reaching them, I noticed the man still standing near the door. I reached my daughters and passed the stranger at the entrance door which he kept holding open. I looked back thinking he was still at the door, deciding whether to go in or find another less crowded place. I saw him going up the stairs, two at a time. I told my daughters about it and all three of us felt had that we did not even thank the courteous gentleman who was actually holding the door open for us ladies to pass through before going up.

I am deeply impressed by the great changes that have been taken place in the school over the past three years.

In May 12,2008, a severe earthquake destroys almost everything in the school，leaving badly-damaged buildings. It is now, however, taking on a new look. Tall building have been put up, including classrooms and laboratory buildings, and a library. There has also a newly-built standard playground. In the new environment, teachers and students are living happy and working hard. It is really amazed that the once-ruined place has now been turned into beautiful school, full of life.

Obviously, without the help of the whole society, there would be no new school today. It is love and concern that has brought about the great changes. Many hands make light work. We can work wonders if you unite as a family, caring for each other and helping those in need. Union is strength.

My grandparents believed that you were either honest or you were not. They had a simple saying hanging on their living-room wall: “Life is like a field of newly fallen snow. Where I choose to walk every step will show.” They didn’t have to talk about it; they showed this truth by the way they lived.

They understood that honesty is an inner(内部的) standard for judging your behavior. Unfortunately, honesty is in short supply today. But it is the real bottom line in every area of society and a discipline (自制能力) we must demand of ourselves.

There’s a story told about a surgical nurse’s first day on the medical team at a well-known hospital. She was responsible(负责) for all surgical instruments and materials during an operation. At the end of the operation, the nurse said to the doctor, “ You’ve only removed 11 sponges（海绵）, and we used 12. We need to find the last one.”

“I removed them all,” the doctor assured her. “ No, you didn’t , sir,” insisted the nurse. “ Think of the patient.”

Smiling, the doctor lifted his foot and showed the nurse the twelfth sponge.

So when you know you’re right, you can’t yield. Don’t be afraid of those who might have a better idea or who might even be more intelligent than you are.

Self-respect and a clear awareness (意识)of right and wrong are powerful parts of honesty and are the basis for enriching your relationships with others. Honesty means you do what you do because it’s right and not just fashionable or politically correct. A life of principle, of not easily yielding, will always take you forward. My grandparents taught me that.

1.From the first two paragraphs, we can infer that ______.

A. the author’s grandparents liked snow

B. the author’s grandparents didn’t like chatting

D. Honesty is the most important standard for judging one’s behavior

2.The nurse insisted there was still a sponge because_____

A. she saw the doctor hide the twelfth sponge

B. she believed she was right

C. she thought the doctor was not responsible

D. she knew the patient well

3.What does the underlined word “yield” mean in the text?

A. admit B. give in

C. stop D. look forward

4.How does the text mainly develop?

A. By providing an example of honesty.

B. By making a comparison between honesty and dishonesty.

C. By explaining the author’s grandparents’ belief in detail.

D. By following the order of importance.

I often imagine what my life will be like in the future. I thought my life will become very differently in ten years. I will be twenty-eight year old by then and I will have my own family, probable with a lovely child. I hope I’ll work in a computer company a program designer. I’ll enjoy my work or get along well with my workmates. I’ll do the good job in whatever I do. In my free time, I’ll continue taken regular exercise, such as swimming, running and different ball games. During my holidays, I’ll travel around the world. In a word, our life will be much more richer and more colorful.

There is an English saying that “Laughter is the best medicine.” Until recently, few people took the saying seriously. Now however, doctors have begun to look into laughter and the effects it has on the human body. They have found that laughter can really improve people’s health.

Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body. People watched funny films while doctors checked their hearts, blood pressure, breathing and muscles. It was found that laughter has similar effects to physical exercise. It increases blood pressure, makes the heart beat quicker and makes people breathe deeper; it also works on several groups of muscles in the face, the stomach, and even the feet. If laughter exercises the body, it must be beneficial.

Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be able to reduce the effects of pain on the body. In one experiment doctors produced pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programs. The group that tolerated（忍耐）the pain for the longest time was the group which listened to a funny program. The reason why laughter can reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce a kind of chemical in the brain which diminishes both stress and pain.

As a result of these discoveries, some doctors in the United States now hold laughter clinics, in which they help to improve their patients’ condition by encouraging them to laugh. They have found that even if their patients do not really feel like laughing, making them smile is enough to produce beneficial effects similar to those caused by laughter.

C. Because they want to improve their patients’ condition.

4.According to the author, we should__________.

A. laugh as much as possible B. watch more funny films

C. smile all the time D. spend more time in laughter clinics

The stories we share with one another are important. They show wisdom and provide inspiration. They are important to our development. But sometimes people choose not to tell.

Considering the negative effects of not sharing a story in the news, people are wondering if public health officials are holding back too much information about the recent outbreak of Ebola.

There is a danger in holding back stories that ought to be told. Bobette Buster said it like this, “The fact is, history has shown us that stories not told can become like a dangerous genie (妖怪) left in a bottle. When they are finally uncorked(透漏), their power to destroy is set free."

There are a number of reasons why we hide parts of our story: they often show our weaknesses or expose our disadvantages; they require courage and strength to share; and of course, there are some stories that should be kept secret—especially those that embarrass someone else.

Most of us have two selves: the one we display on the outside and the one we actually are on the inside. And the better we get at hiding the stories that show our true selves, the more damage we may be causing to ourselves and to others.

Honesty and openness is important: It proves we are trustworthy. It displays we are human. We are not perfect or better. It highlights the importance of hard work and personal development. Hard work may not allow us to overcome our disadvantages completely. But with hard work, we do not have to be restricted to our mistakes.

Does this mean we admit every weakness, every disadvantage, and every secret regret to everybody we meet? No, of course not. There is a time and a place and a certain level of relationship necessary for some stories to be told in an appropriate manner.

1.What's the function of the example in Paragraph 2?

A. It concludes that one should share a story at a proper time.

B. It reflects that people are concerning about the spread of Ebola.

C. It shows the bad effect caused by sharing a story.

D. It proves not sharing a story can cause trouble.

2.One of the reasons why people are unwilling to share experiences is that ________.

A. some stories make themselves feel uneasy

B. story?sharing highlights the importance of hard work

C. people are used to exposing their weaknesses

D. people sometimes have no courage to share their stories

3.The writer aims to convince us to ________.

A. realize the importance of being honest when making friends

B. be open to people close to you by sharing some secrets

C. share stories appropriately for the good of others and ourselves

D. remove the dangers that can be caused by untold stories
