题目内容

Are you a man or a mouse? When people ask this question they want to know 31   you are a   32  person or a coward(懦夫). But you will never really know the answer to this question  33  you are tested in real life. Some people  34  they are brave but when they come face to face with real  35 , they act like cowards. Others think of themselves as cowards, but when they meet danger, they act like  36 .
Lenny had always thought of himself as a  37  person. He got worried before examinations. He worried about his job and health. All he wanted in life was to be safe and healthy.  38 , on January 15th, 2002, a plane crashed into the Potomac River in Washington. Lenny went to the river to see what was happening. He saw a woman in the  39  water. Lenny did not feel afraid. He kept very  40  and did a very dangerous thing. He jumped into the Potomac, 41  to the woman, and kept her head  42  the water. Seventy-eight people died that day. Thank to Lenny, it was not  43 .
When you are in a very  44  situation and feel afraid, the body automatically produces a chemical in the blood. The chemical is called adrenalin(肾上腺素). 45 adrenalin in the blood system, you will feel stronger and stronger and are  46 to fight or run away. However, when you are absolutely terrified, the body can produce too much adrenalin. When this  47 , the muscles become very hard and you find you  48  move at all. You are then paralyzed(使瘫痪,使麻痹) with fear. This is  49  when we are very frightened, we sometimes say we’re “petrified”, which means “stone”. We are   very frightened 50  we become stonelike.

Each spring brings a new blossom of wildflowers in the ditches (沟渠)along the highway. I travel daily to work. There is one particular    26    flower that has    27   caught my eyes. I’ve noticed it blooms only in the morning hours; the    28    sun is too warm for it. Every day for about two weeks. I see those beautiful    29   .
This spring I    30   a wildflower garden in our yard. “I can look out of the   31   window while doing the dishes and see the flowers. I’ve often thought those lovely blue flowers from the   32  would look great in that bed alongside other wildflowers. Everyday I    33  past the flowers thinking, I’ll stop on my way home and    34   them.” “gee (哎呀), I don’t want to get my good clothes dirty…” whatever the reason, I    35  stopped to dig them.
One day on my way home from work in my car, I was    36    to see the highway department had moved the ditches and the pretty blue flowers were    37  . I thought to myself, “You    38    too long. You should have done it when you first saw them  39   this spring. ”
A week ago, we were shocked and saddened to learn my older sister-in-law had a terminal brain tumor (肿块). She is 10 years    40   than my husband and unfortunately, because of age and distance. We haven’t been as    41   as we all would have liked. I couldn’t help but see the   42     between the pretty blue flowers and the relationship between my husband’s    43  and us. I do believe god has given us some time left to    44  some wonderful memories that will bloom every year for us.
And yes, if I see the blue flowers again, I’ll    45   and transplant them to my wildflower garden.

I still remember the last time I went to the playground with two of my children. It had rained during the night and the playground was very muddy (泥泞的). They had just put on clean clothes, so I was a little worried about the mud on the playground. It was not long before Kathy got her beautiful skirt dirty on the playground. She dug through the rocks. I was about to blame (指责) her for getting her clothes dirty when she ran towards me with a smile on her face. When she got to me, she handed me a little heart-shaped rock and said, “Here, Mom! Here is a heart for you —just because I love you! Keep it!” With tears in my eyes, I thanked her.
Should I blame her for getting her clothes muddy? No way! I still have that little heart-shaped rock. It is one of the best gifts that I have ever received. I realized that many times it was not necessary for us adults to worry about the small things our children did. Let them do what they’d like to.
I will spend a lot more time on the playground with my children. I’m sure I will learn a lot from them. It makes me think of the days when my grandfather told me, “You would not enter the kingdom of happiness until you pretended (假装) to be a small child.”

A.ran on the playground

A.digging task on the playground

A.not worry about the small things their children do
B.allow kids to do whatever they like
C.keep the presents given by children
D.not give too much care to their own children
小题4:The author’s grandfather’s words imply that _______.
A.children care more about happiness than adults
B.adults can not share children’s happiness
C.children may find happiness more easily in life
D.adults find it hard to know children’s happiness

The simplest way to say it is this: I believe in my mother. My belief began when I was just a kid, who    36   becoming a doctor.
My mother was a domestic(佣人). Through her work, she observed that   37   people spent a lot more time reading than they    38   watching television. She announces that my brother and I    39  watch two to three pre-selected programs during the week. With our   40  time, we had to read two books each from the Detroit Public Library and   41   written book reports to her. She would mark them up with check marks and highlights. Years later we realized her marks were a    42  . My mother was illiterate(文盲).
When I entered high school, I was a    43   student, but not for long. I began to like fancy clothes. I wanted to    44   other guys. I went from an A-student to a B-student to a C-student. One night my mother came home from her various jobs and I    45   about not having enough Italian knit shirts. She said, “Okay, I’ll give you all the money I    46   this week scrubbing floors and cleaning bathrooms, and you can buy the family food and pay the bills. With the money    47  , you can have all the Italian knit shirts you want.” I was very    48   with that arrangement but once I got through allocating(分配)money, there was   49   left. I realized my mother was a financial genius(金融天才)to be able to keep the roof over our heads and any kind of food on the table, let alone buy    50  . I really realized my desire wasn’t going to get me    51  . Success requires intellectual preparation. I went back to my    52   and became an A-student again and eventually I    53   my dream and I became a doctor.
My story is really my mother’s story—a woman with    54   formal education who used her position as a parent to change the lives of her children. There is no job    55   than parenting. This I believe.

A young boy was sitting in the back seat of the car eating an apple. He asked his father, “Why does my apple turn brown?” his father answered, “When the skin is removed, air reaches the flesh of the apple and causes oxidation. This changes the apple’s molecular structure and results in a brownish color.” The boy asked, “ Daddy, what are you talking about?”
I know how that boy feels. Sometimes I want answers to some of those confusing questions that we all meet with, such as how to get through difficult times or what to do in a tough situation. I just want to get it right.
The problem is that I don’t always have the answer I need. Nobody else seems to have them, either. So I go on making mistakes and think that I’ll never get it right.
Often I didn’t know what to do. I often made poor choices, but I gradually improved. Then I realized that I don’t HAVE TO always get it right. I don’t have to always know what to do all the time. All I really need to do is try my best, learn from my mistakes and go on.
Dr. Leo Buscaglia once said, “ No one gets out of this world alive, so the time to live, learn, care, share, celebrate and love is now. That would be pretty hard to do when you’re waiting for all the answers first.”
So you got it wrong. You made a mistake. So what should you do next? Forgive yourself and try again. You may not get out of this world alive, but you can get plenty of life out of this world if you are not too worried about always getting it right.
小题1: In the beginning, the author tells the story of a boy and his father to ____.
A.show that the father is very knowledgeable

A.He admired his father very much.
B.He knew what his father meant.

小题3: What do Dr. Leo Buscaglia’s words mean?
A.We must make right choices as often as possible.
B.We can search the answers when enjoying life itself.
C.People have many desires when they enter the world.
D.It is hard to lead a happy and satisfying life.
小题4: What can be concluded from the passage?
A.We should learn from our mistakes and try again.
B.We should try to learn and understand the answers to questions.

Mickey was a nice, cheerful, optimistic boy. No one could remember ever having seen him 36;it seemed he didn’t 37 whatever people said to him. Even his teachers admired his good 38. It was so unusual that a story was going around that Mickey’s 39 must be due to some special secret. They asked Mickey so much that, one afternoon, he 40 his favorite teacher, Mr. Anthony, to tea. When they had finished, Mickey 41 Mr. Anthony around the house. When Mickey opened his bedroom door, the teacher 42 . The huge wall was a unique collage (拼贴画) of thousands of colors and shapes! It was the loveliest 43 Mr. Anthony had ever seen.
“Some people at school think I 44 think badly of anyone,” Mickey started to explain, “and that 45 at all bothers me, but that’s not true at all. I’m just like anyone else. I used to get angrier than all the other kids. 46 years ago, with the help of my parents, I started a small collage. With every little piece I stuck on I added some bad thought or act.”
It was 47. The teacher looked closely at the wall. In each one of the small 48 he could read, “fool”, “silly”, “pain”, “bore”, and a thousand other 49 things.
“This is how I started 50 all my bad times into an opportunity to 51 to my collage. Now I like the collage so much that, each time someone makes me angry, I couldn’t be 52 . They’ve given me a new piece for my work of 53 .”
That day, the teacher was impressed by Mickey’s secret to having an optimistic character. Without telling anyone, on that very day, Mr. Anthony 54 his own collage. He would often 55 it to his students. Years later, each house contained its own beautiful works of art, made by those cheerful and optimistic children.
