4．Dear Daughter，
As we drove off from Columbia，I wanted to write to tell you all that is on my mind．First，I want to tell you how proud we are．Getting into Columbia is a real testament （证明） of what a great well-rounded student you are．You should be as proud of yourself as we are．
Your college years will be the most important of your life．It is in college that you will discover what learning is about．This will be the period when you go from teacher taught to master inspired，after which you must become a self-learner．So do take each subject seriously，and even if what you learn is of no practical use in real life，the learning skills you get will be something you will value forever．
Follow your passion in college．Take courses you think you will enjoy，don't be bothered by what others think or say，but make up your own mind．Most importantly，make true friends and be happy．Don't worry about their hobbies，grades，looks，or even personalities．
Start planning early what you'd like to do．Where would you like to live？What would you like to learn？I think your plan to study fashion is good，and you should decide where you want to be，and get onto the right courses．I will always be there for you，but the time has come for you to be in the driver's seat-this is your life，and you need to be in control．Being in control feels great．Try it，and you'll love it!
So please treasure your college years-make the best use of your free time，become an independent thinker in control of your destiny，and learn through your successes and challenges．
May your years at Columbia be the happiest of your life，and may you grow into just what you dream to be．
Love

12．Banjo
I am a music store owner．One day，when I was cleaning the instruments in my store，I saw an old man come in．His short steps dragged on the carpet．"Is 77too old to learn the banjo（班卓琴）？"he asked．"It's never too late to learn to play，"I replied，holding back my doubts．My mind told me I was giving false encouragement．I reached the instructor's schedule and gave the rates，the available（有效的） time and additional information that he would need．To my surprise and delight，the old man，Carl，began banjo lessons three days later with my most patient teacher．
With nothing to do at home but practice，Carl made surprising progress．After breakfast he practiced for his required half hour．While waiting for lunch he picked up his banjo again for just a couple of minutes．Since TV was difficult for him to see and hear，he often played the banjo in the evenings．Carl was always early for lessons so it was a surprise that he didn't arrive one Tuesday．
The next morning I listened to the answering machine with sadness．"Carl's in hospital，"the voice recorded．
Two months later，I shared the newspaper obituary with the banjo teacher．We both shed tears for a surprisingly clever banjo student．
Several months later，an old woman came into the store carrying a plant．"This is for Carl's banjo teacher，"she said．"I'm his wife，Mary．"
"Why did Carl want to play banjo？"I asked．Mary took a deep breath and let it out slowly．"Carl was at some show when he was 10years old．He came close to the stage to watch the performers．When they were picking up their instruments，the banjo player said to Carl，‘You want to see this up close？'Carl climbed up on the stage and from then on he wanted to play the banjo．"Carl had waited 67years to realize this dream!Mary gave the plant to me．"Thank you for the best six months of his life，"she said．

C．Because he wanted to realize a dream from his early age．

16．You are watching a film in which two men are having a fight．They hit one another hard．At the start they only fight with their fists．But soon they begin hitting one another over the heads with chairs．And so it goes on until one of the men crashes （撞击） through a window and falls thirty feet to the ground below．He is dead！Of course he isn't really dead．With any luck he isn't even hurt．Why？Because the men who fall out of high windows or jump from fast moving trains，who crash cars or even catch fire，are professionals．They do this for a living．These men are called stuntmen．That is to say，they perform tricks．There are two sides to their work．They actually do most of the things you see on the screen．For example，they fall from a high building．However，they do not fall on to hard ground but on to empty cardboard boxes covered with a mattress （床垫）．Again，when they hit one another with chairs，the chairs are made of soft wood and when they crash through windows，the glass is made of sugar!But although their work depends on trick of this sort，it also requires a high degree of skill and training．Often a stuntman's success depends on careful timing．For example，when he is"blown up"in a battle scene，he has to jump out of the way of the explosion just at the right moment．
  Naturally stuntmen are well paid for their work，but they lead dangerous lives．They often get seriously injured，and sometimes killed．A Norwegian stuntman，for example，skied over the edge of a cliff （悬崖） a thousand feet high．His parachute failed to open，and he was killed．In spite of all the risks，this is no longer a profession for men only．Men no longer dress up as women when actresses have to perform some dangerous action，for nowadays there are stuntgirls，too．
68．Stuntmen are those whoC
A．often dress up as actors 
B．prefer to lead dangerous lives 
C．often perform seemingly dangerous actions 
D．often fight each other for their lives 
69．Stuntmen earn their living byB
A．selling their special skills 
B．playing their dirty tricks 
C．jumping out of high windows 
D．jumping from fast moving trains 
70．When a stuntman falls from a high building，D．
A．he needs little protection 
B．he will be covered with a mattress 
C．his life is in danger
D．his safety is generally all right 
71．Which of the following is the main factor （因素） of a successful performance？B
A．Strength．B．Exactness．C．Speed．D．Carefulness．
13．In our home it was natural to fear our father．Even our mother was afraid of him．As children，my sister and I thought every family was like that---that every family had an unpredictable dad who was impossible to please and a praying mom who was there to protect the children．We were good children．Mom was always telling us we were，even if daddy couldn't see it．
Then came the day we found something new and fun to do．We discovered we could draw pictures with chalk on our wooden front door．We could have lots of fun，so we set to work drawing and making lots of pretty pictures all over it．We had a great time．We decided to finish our pictures，knowing mom would just love them．
The praise we expected did not come．We did not understand why，but we knew all about anger，and that we were in big trouble!Off we ran to find a place to hide．In our wooded yard it was not hard for two small children to find safety．Together，we hid behind a tree and did not move．Soon we heard the frightened voices of mom and our neighbors calling out to us．We were afraid we would be found．The sun set，and it began to get dark．Those around us became more anxious，and we became more frightened．As we stayed together in the dark，we heard another voice，one we recognized with great fear：our daddy．But there was something strangely different about it．In it we heard something we had never heard before：fear and despair．Our daddy with tears running down his face，promising God his life for the safe return of his girls．
Things were different after that．We had a new daddy； it was as if the old one had been buried that day in the yard．Our whole family had been changed by one piece of chalk．

32．The children drew pictures on the wooden front door in order toD．
A．improve their drawing skills
B．be praised by their mother
C．make the door beautiful
D．have fun
33．Why didn't the children come out when others were searching for them？A
A．They were afraid of being punished．
B．They wanted to make their father worry．
C．They wanted to tell their parents that they were wrong．
D．They wanted to stay there for the night．
34．What happened while the children were hiding？A
A．The mother told the neighbors about it．
B．The father came home early．
C．The father became very angry．
D．The children found it was interesting to do so．
35．What can we infer from the story？C
A．The father didn't love his children．
B．The father was too busy to talk with the children．
C．The children weren't afraid of their father after the incident．
D．The family was afraid of the father because of his rudeness．
14．Whenever my dog，Barney，comes into the house after having been for a ride in the car，he runs to the pen（围栏） we have set up for him by the back door．It's not something we intentionally trained him to do．The habit came simply because my husband tended to put him in his pen whenever they came in．After doing it a few times，Barney just figures that's what you do when you come inside after a car ride．
It's the same with your thinking．You get into the habit of thinking a certain way and then you'll rarely question it after that．
This is especially true when you were growing up．You developed habits that just made things easier for you．You probably didn't even think about them．That's just the way it was and that's what you did．Just like Barney thinks he has to go into his pen，you do things automatically as well．
For example，when you were a kid，you may have been told not to"talk back"and to just keep quiet about things that were bothering you．These are habits that might have worked to keep you safe and out of trouble when you were young．
Now that you're grown up，you may be finding that these previous strategies are actually causing you problems．In a relationship，not communicating isn't going to work as your partner can't read your mind．What works when you're a child may not work when you become an adult．
When you decide you need to change your thoughts，your brain may at first feel that it's not a safe thing to do．Lots of practice and years of experience says it's not．Also，you don't know to question the thought．It's a truth for you．The trick is to look at your results and see if your thoughts are the cause．Be willing to question your thinking and ask yourself if there are thoughts that are hindering （妨碍） you．As you are now in a different phase of your life，different strategies may be needed．
63．As with the dog Barney，peopleA．
A．think in a habitual way              
B．enjoy having a car ride
C．usually behave in a friendly way       
D．have a good memory
64．According to the passage，as a kid，one tends toD．
A．be afraid to make mistakes  
B．have the experience of playing with a dog
C．learn much from adults like his/her parents
D．form a habit which can keep his/her out of trouble
65．In the writer's opinion，adults shouldC．
A．not"talk back"
B．avoid causing any problem
C．change the habit which will bring troubles
D．value their habits formed in their childhood
66．It can be concluded from the passage thatC．
A．the author's husband must be good at training dogs
B．childhood is the best time for developing good habits
C．one can change his/her life by changing his/her thoughts
D．you should change all your childhood habits when you grow up．
