“Oh,honey,”I said.“I don’t think you’ll break another arm.”“　3　I could,couldn’t I？”“You know,honey,”I said,“　4　everything you do comes with risks.You could get a broken arm in a car　5　and then be afraid to　6　ride in a car again.You could break your arm jumping a rope.You could break your arm at gym.Do you want to　7　going to gym？”“No,”she said.And with a determined spirit,she stood up and　8　to try again.

In my living room, there is a plaque(匾) that advises me to “Bloom(开花) where you are planted.” It reminds me of Dorothy. I got to know Dorothy in the early 1980s，when I was teaching Early Childhood Development through a program with Union College in Barbourville, Kentucky. The job responsibilities required occasional visits to the classroom of each teacher in the program. Dorothy stands out in my memory as one who “bloomed” in her remote area.

Dorothy taught in a school in Harlan County, Kentucky, Appalachian Mountain area. To get to her school from the town of Harlan, I followed a road winding around the mountain. In the eight­mile journey, I crossed the same railroad track five times, giving the possibility of getting caught by the same train five times. Rather than feeling excited by this drive through the mountains, I found it depressing. The poverty level was shocking and the small shabby houses gave me the greatest feeling of hopelessness.

From the moment of my arrival at the little school, all gloom(忧郁) disappeared. Upon arriving at Dorothy's classroom, I was greeted with smiling faces and treated like a queen. The children had been prepared to show me their latest projects. Dorothy told me with a big smile that they were serving poke greens salad and cornbread for “dinner”(lunch). In case you don't know, poke greens are a weed­type plant that grows wild, especially on poor ground.

Dorothy never ran out of reports of exciting activities of her students. Her enthusiasm never cooled down. When it came time to sit for the testing and interviewing required to receive her Child Development Associate Cerlification, Dorothy was ready. She came to the assessment and passed in all areas. Afterward, she invited me to the one­and­only steak house in the area to celebrate her victory, as if she had received her Ph.D. degree. After the meal, she placed a little box containing an old pen in my hand. She said it was a family heirloom(传家宝), but to me it is a treasured symbol of appreciation and pride that cannot be matched with things.

61．“Early Childhood Development” in Paragraph I refers to ________．

A．a program directed by Dorothy

B．a course given by the author

C．an activity held by the students

D．an organization sponsored by Union College

A．the long track  B．the poor houses

C．the same train  D．the winding road

63．Upon arriving at the classroom, the author was cheered up by ________．

A．a warm welcome  B．the sight of poke greens

C．Dorothy's latest projects  D．a big dinner made for her

64．What can we know about Dorothy from the last paragraph?

A．She was invited to a celebration at a restaurant.

B．She got a pen as a gift from the author.

C．She passed the required assessment.

D．She received her Ph.D. degree.

65．What does the author mainly intend to tell us?

A．Whatever you do, you must do it carefully.

B．Whoever you are, you deserve equal treatment

C．However poor you are, you have the right to education.

D．Wherever you are, you can accomplish your achievement.

Have you ever not wanted to do something so badly that you would rather die than go? Well that’s how I      about joining Madcaps, a mothers and daughters club assisting philanthropies（慈善事业）.But now I believe that you     open up your mind to things because eventually you might     end up enjoying it.

“It’s a waste of time”, I said when my mom told I had to join Madcaps, and then when she said I had to      at a homeless shelter I thought this just could not be      .

We got there late, of course, and the security guard led us to the kitchen    we ran into 48 other fellow Madcaps members. Since I’m     so socially awkward（糟糕的） I had met only one person at a pool party, earlier this year. I looked around for her but she was not there. Damn, I was     ! When the man in charge came out and asked for 3 mothers to work outside the      to clean up the plates, my mom just happened to volunteer leaving me to      food with others.

Soon the     families started to walk in and a little girl walked up and pointed to the food I was     I gave her the cold sandwich, she nodded in a form of saying      , and then walked to join her family at the large table.

As she walked away I thought of how much I       I get to go the top schools. I have a great house and I have a warm meal every night. It     that little girl to make me realize how lucky I am. After that moment I had a change of     . Now, I love Madcaps and don’t miss one meeting, I have       being socially awkward and now have many friends. And this year I am sure I will do      the required 20 hours of philanthropies.

I believe that if you have an     mind about things you can accomplish more and become a better rounded person. I believe sometimes you can make a difference just     doing one thing you don’t want to do .

Have you ever come across this thing？When a rather dirty，poorly dressed person kneels at your feet and reaches out his hands to beg for a few coins，do you hurry to go，not knowing what to do，or do you feel sad and hurriedly __1__ some money？What should our attitude __2__ beggars be？There can be __3__ question that the world is full of terribly sad stories. It __4__ be terrible to have no idea where our next meal is going to come from. It seems __5__ not to give some money to beggars.

_6__，most of the world's great religions order us to be open­hearted and __7__ what we have with those unluckier than ourselves. But has the world changed？Maybe what was morally right in the old days，__8__ one knew exactly who in the village had suffered misfortune and needed help，is no longer the best idea.Quite a few people will not give some money to beggars.Let us look at their __9__.

Firstly，some believe that many city beggars dress themselves up __10_ to look pitiable but actually make a good __11__.Giving something to beggars only encourages this sort of evil(恶行)．__12__，there is the worry that the money you give will be spent on beers，wines or drugs.Thirdly，there is the opinion __13__ there is no real excuse for begging.One might be poor，__14__ that is no reason for losing one's sense of __15__ and self­dependence.

Related to this is the opinion that the problem should be handled by the government _16__ ordinary people. Some people think beggars should go to the local government department and _17__ help.

It is hard to come to any final conclusion：there are various _18__ and we must __19__ them differently. A few coins can save a life in some situations，and even if the money is wasted，that does not take away the moral goodness of the __20__.
