I first met Sean one summer day. He carried a bag    36 with four clubs(球杆)  and some balls. He was a lot   37  than other kids of his age. I heard he was   38   from cancer. Still , he always seemed to be smiling whenever I would see him with his friends, trying to  39  as far as he did.
A year or so passed and I hadn’t   40  Sean .I had heard that his cancer was   41      him. Still, his friends said he was going to come here before long.
  42  enough , he was there the following week. I   43  that one of his friends was carrying Sean’s bag. I saw Sean was having a(n)  44  time trying to drive the ball. Sean hit his last ball as hard as his fragile body would   45  .It flew up to the green and was out of sight. One of his friends   46  Sean walk up to the green. It was a(n)  47 walk because the green was higher than the tee(发球区).
Suddenly I saw one boy pick up Sean’s ball and    48  it in the hole. Then he ran and   49  to look for his own ball.
When Sean finally got to the green, he looked   50  because he thought he hit it over .
Then he glanced in the hole. A smile   51  his face! The boys looked at each other and said , “You can’t tell me it’s a hole-in-one!”
“No, really ! Look !” he said . They all acted    52  and as I watched , I thought Sean looked like the   53   guy I had ever seen. I never saw Sean or his friends after that day.   54   it was then that I learned just what golf should be .
It’s not about what   55  you get or how far you drive. It is about caring for the friends you play with and enjoying the time you have with them.

We were talking about engagement when my boyfriend, Jack, had to go to war. I was so afraid of losing him; the only way I could stay sane(保持清醒) was to dance. I became very good and critics praised me, but I could feel was the ache in my heart, no knowing whether the love of my life would ever return. And then one day a letter from him came:“I have lost my leg. I am no longer a whole man and now give you back your freedom. It is best you forget me.”
I made my decision there and then I left the city. When I returned I had bought myself a cane(拐杖) and learned to limp convincingly. I told everyone I had been in a car crash and that my leg would never completely heal again. My dancing days were over. No one suspected the story. And I made sure the first person to hear of my accident was a reporter. Then I travelled to the hospital. They had pushed him outside in his wheelchair. I leaned on my cane and limped to him.
I told him he was not the only one who had lost a leg, even if mine were still attached to me. I showed him newspaper clippings of my accident. “ There is a whole life waiting for us out there! And I am not going to carry you—you are going to walk yourself.”
I limped a few steps towards him and showed him what I’d taken out of my pocket.” Now show me you are still a man,” I said. He bent to take his cane and struggled out of that wheelchair. I could see he had not done it before, because he almost fell on his face. But I was not going to help. Finally he managed it on his own and walked to me and never sat in a wheelchair again in his life.
What I showed to him was engagement rings. And I would limp with him for the rest of life.

My six-year-old granddaughter stared at me as if she were seeing me for the first time.”Grandma, you are an antique(古董),”she said. "You are old. Antiques are old. You are my antique."
I was not satisfied to let the matter rest there. I took out the Webster's Dictionary and read the definition(定义)to Jenny.I explained, "An antique is not only old, it's an object existing since or belonging to earlier times...a work of art... piece of furniture. Antiques are treasured,"I told Jenny as I put away the dictionary. "They have to be handled carefully because they sometimes are very valuable. In order to qualify as an antique, the object has to be at least 100 years old."
"I'm only 67,"I renunded Jenny.
We looked around the house for other antiques, besides me. There was a desk that was handed down from rone aunt to another and finally to our family. "It's very old,"I told Jenny.“I try to keep it polished and I show it off whenever I can. You do that with antiques."
There was a picture on the wall purchased at a garage sale. It was dated 1867. "Now  that's an antique," I boasted. "Over 100 years old." Of course it was marked up and scratched and not in very good condition. "Sometimes age does that," I told Jenny. "But the marks are good marks. They show living, being around. That's something to display with pride. In fact, sometimes, the more an object shows age, the more valuable it can become." It was important that I believed this for my own self-esteem.
Our tour of antiques continued. There was a vase on the floor. It had been in my house for a long time. I was not certain where it came from but I didn't buy it new. One thing about antiques, I explained to Jenny, was that they usually had a story. They'd been in one home and then another, handed down from one family to another, traveling all over the place. They'd lasted through years and years. They could have been tossed away, or ignored. or destroyed, or lost. But instead, they survived.
For a moment, Jenny looked thoughtful. “l don't have any antiques but you," she said. Then her face brightened. "Could I take you to school for show and tell?"
"Only if I fit into your backpack," I answered. And then Jenny's antique lifted her up and embraced her in a hug that would last through the years.
小题1:Grandma read the definition of "antique" to Jenny in order to         .
A.list all the important characteristics of antiques
B.tell Jenny the importance of protecting antiques
C.change Jenny's shallow understanding of antiques
D.express her disappointment at being called "antique"
小题2:Which of the following information did grandma convey to Jenny?
A.The desk reminded her of her dear relatives.
B.The marks on the picture showed its age and value.
C.There was usually a sad story behind each antique.
D.She planned to buy a new vase to replace the old one.
小题3:By saying "I don't have any antiques but you" (Paragraph 7), Jenny meant         .
A.grandma was a treasure to her
B.antiques were rare and valuable
C.she had nothing but a few possessions
D.grandma and antiques had a lot in common
小题4:What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A.Grandma was too old to lift Jenny up.
B.Jenny had a strong desire for grandma's love.
C.Jenny was too young to know grandma's humor.
D.Grandma had a deep long-lasting love for Jenny.
小题5:What can be the best title for the passage? 
A.Jenny's AntiqueB.A Story of Antiques
C.A Tour of AntiquesD.Grandma's Antique
My name is Scott and I am 36 years old. I have spent most of my adult life doing an   41  job, so I had a very cynical (愤世嫉俗的) view of life and the world around me. I saw no point in trying to   42  my life or the lives of the people around me.

This   49  me, so I asked Dr. Rock himself why he did not pursue a better role in his career. What he told me has changed my   50  forever. He told me that by working at the college he  would be able to   51  the kinds of students he believed would make a   52  in the world. He said that   53  the right motivation and support, the students he taught could become the future leaders of our country. He said that he preferred the inner city   54  because the students there showed the   55  promise and cared deeply for their education.
Dr. Rock paid attention to the needs of the community. He taught me how to care and   56  us to take part in our community in any way we   57  .
I thought that I was the   58  one that was affected by his lessons, but at the end of the term I found that the entire class had felt the same   59  that came over me. Dr. Rock taught us how to   60    our country, our community and ourselves.

Honesty comes in many forms. First there’s self-honesty. Is what people see the real article or do you appear through smoke and mirrors? I find that if I try to be something I’m not. I feel unsure of myself and take out a part from my PBA(personal bank account). I love how singer Judy Garland put it. “Always be a first-class version(版本) of yourself, instead of a second-class version of somebody else. ” Then there’s honesty in our actions. Are you honest at school, with your parents, and with your boss? If you’ve ever been dishonest, I think we all have, try being honest, and notice how whole it makes you feel. Remember, you can’t do wrong and feel right. This story by Jeff is a good example of that
In my second year of study, there were three kids in my math class who didn’t do well. I was really good at it. I would charge them three dollars for each test that I helped them pass. I’d write on a little piece of paper all the right answers, and hand them off. At first I felt like I was making money, kind of a nice job. I wasn’t thinking about how it could hurt all of us. After a while I realized I shouldn’t do that any more, because I wasn’t really helping them. They weren’t learning anything, and it would only get harder down the road. Cheating certainly wasn’t helping me.
It takes courage to be honest when people all around you are getting away with cheating on tests, lying to their parents, and stealing at work. But, remember, every act of honesty is a deposit(储蓄) into your PBA and will build strength.
小题1:The underlined part “appear through smoke and mirrors” in the FIRST paragraph means________.
A.to be unrealB.to be honest
C.to become clearD.to come from an imagined world
小题2:Which of the following can best explain Judy Garland’s words?
A.Don’t copy others or you can’t be the first class.
B.Be your true self rather than follow others.
C.Make efforts to be the first instead of the second.
D.Don’t learn from others unless they’re excellent.
小题3:What does the author expect to show by Jeff’s story?
A.Honesty can be of great help.
B.A bad thing can be turned into a good one.
C.One should realize the wrong in his bad deeds.
D.Helping others cheat can do good to nobody.
小题4:In the last paragraph the author mainly wants to express________.
A.one must be brave to be honest
B.it’s difficult to be honest when others are not
C.one should be honest when making a deposit
D.honesty in one’s actions can help him in the future
                                                                              A
Everywhere I go, people are speaking on their cell telephones regardless of their surroundings (环境) . This happens when people are walking around a lake or through town, or even driving. I have even seen a person attempting to speak on her cell phone while ordering ice cream at Dairy Queen, thus speaking to two people at once.
As the over-spending of technology increases, people begin to take less joy in the simple pleasures of life—joys that don’t cost money—from observing clouds, playing with children to thinking or reading. And it is not just telephones that take the responsibility; too much value is placed on items (物品) from computers to cars. Many things are purchased (购买) merely(仅仅) to show off. Do you really need a cell phone that plays games, shows movies and takes pictures? No, cell phones should be purchased to use in urgent situations.You do not need to use your telephone when you are at someone else’s house or in a restaurant.
Technology and possessions (财产) do not bring joy. While some technology is necessary, it can get ridiculous(可笑的). Each possession just makes us want more, while simple pleasures can be enjoyed now and then.
Instead of spending our time buying a third television or looking into the newest cell phone models, we should be acting more productively to improve the world by volunteering, for example. Or, we should reconsider playing computer games or taking pictures on our cell phones and read a book or imagine what shapes the clouds are in the sky instead.
小题1:The author mentions cell phones at the beginning just to show _________.
A.they can be used on any occasion.
B.people manage to speak to two at a time.
C.they can put drivers in great danger.
D.people are fond of personal items.
小题2:People have less joy of simple life nowadays mainly because they _________.
A.focus on technology and their belongings.
B.use cell phones in less urgent situations.
C.buy private cars just to show off.
D.place too much value on computers.
小题3:We can infer that ________.
A.people have no time to play with their children.
B.we can take pleasure in using cell phones at any time.
C.people always desire more possessions.
D.we depend on volunteers to develop the world.
The other day I heard a few local musicians talking, "I hate all the pianos in this town and I hate that rubbish they play on the radio. They cannot even understand rhythm (韵律).""Nobody wants to pay musicians anything. I’m sick of all the people who want you to play without paying you.” One younger musician said, "There are a couple of clubs who want me to play for a few nights a month, and I’m trying to find other places to play. I’m also planning to join in several summer festivals this year." I really liked what the younger musician said so I made friends with him.
Attitudes are important. Whether they’re positive or negative (消极的), they’re all rubbing off on you. If you’re around people who are always complaining(抱怨) or blaming (责备) others, it is possible that you will start doing the same as well. If you spend lots of time with people who don’t support your dreams, it is time to take a look at the people you call "friends".
There is an easy exercise you can try. Make a list of the people who you often stay with, and simply stop spending time with the negative people on your list. Set a new standard for yourself and don’t become friends with people who fall below that standard. The choice is always yours to make. Of course, this exercise is entirely different from making friends only for the good of oneself. We really should try to help and spend time with those who are working towards a goal or dream.
小题1:The musicians’ conversation at the beginning is to show that ______.
A.musicians’ living conditions are not good
B.people in that town have poor taste in music
C.different people have different attitudes
D.young people are more likely to succeed
小题2: The underlined part "they’re rubbing off on you" in Paragraph 2 means ______.
A.they’ll push you aheadB.they’ll have an influence on you
C.they’ll keep you from moving onD.they’ll help you realize your dreams
小题3:Why did the author want to make friends with the younger musician?
A.He is more active than the others.
B.He can earn more than the others.
C.He has more things to do than the others.
D.His attitude is more positive than the others.
小题4:By doing the exercise mentioned in Paragraph 3, you can ______.
A.make the right kind of friends
B.improve your ability to make friends
C.develop a better relationship with your friends
D.make some new friends with the same interests as you
小题5:We can get the following information from the passage EXCEPT ______.
A.the younger musician is a positive person and would be a good friend
B.one will start complaining if one spends too much time with negative people
C.the exercise can help you keep close to really helpful friends
D.one should avoid making friends with people who have lots of difficulties
