A look of   49  crossed the woman’s face.
“I’m going right by there,” I said, which wasn’t a(an)   50  since I had just made up my mind to do   51  that.
I got in my car and began the journey back.I was trying to watch to be sure they were right   52  me.It took only fifteen minutes to get there as rush hour traffic was beginning to   53 .I felt better than I had all day and my headache was nearly gone.

For some minutes, all was quiet in the street. Then from across the street someone came walking.
It looked like a man of middle height, dressed in a big raincoat, a soft hat and rubber-soled boots or shoes, and making little sound while walking. No one was in sight. It was a street with two rows of about fifty small houses and there were three lamps on either side. The lamp nearest to the child’s house could be seen clearly, but the others were almost hidden by the smoky air. A car passed the end of the street and its lights showed faintly,but clearly enough to show the smooth skin of a woman’s face. The car disappeared as the woman, wrapped up in her coat, reached the doorway of the child’s house. She put a key in the lock quickly, pushed the door open and stepped inside, then closed the door without looking round. She began to breathe hard.
She leaned against the door for a moment, then straightened up as if with an effort, and walked towards the door of the front room, the passage leading to the kitchen, and the narrow staircase. She hesitated outside the door, then went up the stairs quickly but with hardly a sound. There was enough light from the narrow hall to show the four doors leading off a small landing(楼梯平台). She pushed each door open in turn and shone a torch inside, and the light fell upon beds, walls, furniture, a bathroom hand-basin, a mirror which flashed brightness back; but this was not what the woman was looking for. She turned away and went downstairs, and hesitated again at the foot of the stairs, then turned towards the kitchen. Clearly there was nothing there, or in the small washroom that she wanted. Two rooms remained; the front room and a smaller one next to it. She opened the front room door. After a moment, she saw the child’s bed and the child.

You speak, write a letter, and make a telephone call. Your words carry a message. People communicate with words. Do you think you can communicate without words?
A smile on your face shows you are happy or friendly. Tears in your eyes tell others that you are sad. When you raise your hand in class, the teacher knows you want to say something or ask questions. You shake your head, and people know you are saying "No". You nod and people know you are saying "Yes". Other things can also carry messages. For example, a sign at the bus stop helps you to know which bus to take. A sign on the wall of your school helps you to find the library. Signs on doors tell you where to go in or out. Have you ever noticed that there are a lot of signs around you and that you receive messages from them all the time? People can communicate in many other ways. An artist can use his drawings to tell about beautiful mountains, about the blue sea and many other things. Books are written to tell you about all the wonderful things in the world and also about people and their ideas. Books, magazines, TV and radios and films all help us to communicate with each other. They all help us to know what is going on in the world and what other people are thinking about.

Years ago,when I was working at a children’s institution,a boy 1 up in the waiting room.It was David.He had 2 his parents.He was very sad 3 to talk to others.
The first two times we met,David didn’t say a word.He sat in the chair and only 4 up at the children’s drawings on the wall.As he was about to leave 5 the second visit,I put my hand on his 6 .He didn’t shrink (退缩) back,but he didn’t look at me either.
“Come back next week,” I hesitated a bit.
He came,and I suggested we play a game of chess.He  7 .After that we played  8 every time,in complete  9 and without making any eye contact.It’s not  10 to cheat in chess,but I admit that I made sure David won  11 .
It seemed as if he enjoyed my  12 .But why did he never look at me?Perhaps he sensed that I respected his suffering.I kept wondering and  13with him,until some months later,  14 ,
he looked up at me.“It’s your turn,” he said.
After that day,David started  15 .He got friends in school.He wrote me a few  16 about how he would try to get into university.After some time,the letters  17 .Now he had really started to live his own life.
I learned how  18cures pain.And David showed me how one—without any  19 —can reach out to another person.All it takes is a shoulder to cry on,a  20 touch and an ear that listens.

While watching the Olympics the other night,I came across an incredible sight.The 1 was swimming and started with only three men.For one reason or another,two of them had a 2 start,so they were disqualified.That would have been difficult enough,not having anyone to  3 against.
I watched the man 4 off the blocks and knew immediately that something was wrong.Now I’m not an expert 5 but I do know a good dive 6 a poor one,and this was not exactly medal 7 .I listened to the crowd begin to 8 this poor man who was clearly having a 9 time.Finally he made his turn to start back.It was 10 .He made a few desperate strokes (划水) and you could tell he was exhausted.
But in those few 11 strokes,the crowd had changed.No longer were they laughing,but beginning to 12 .Some even began to 13 things like,“Come on,you can do it!”,and he 14 finished his race.The crowd went 15 .Even though he recorded one of the 16 times in Olympic history,this man gave more heart than any of the other 17 .
In a competition where athletes remove their silver medals,feeling they have 18 been cheated out of gold,or when they act so 19 in front of their competitors,it is nice to watch an underdog (失败者),a man that gave his all—knowing that he had no chance,but competed because of his 20 and the spirit of the games.

Most of my earliest childhood memories are of the beach — in the hot sun, building sandcastles, burying Dad in the sand.
Now the coast has a pleasant and relaxing attraction beyond words. I look forward to a windy cliff-top walk or a rainy day rock-picking just as much as those rare moments when I get to a short sleep in the sun. But there’s nothing more pleasurable than turning up at a beach to find it deserted.
These are my favourite secret beaches — ones either not well known or take a bit of effort to get to. Most of those listed scored highly in the Marine Conservation Society Good Beach Guide 2009; the others are too secret even for them.
Sennen Clove is just a mile northeast of Land’s End, the westernmost point of mainland England. It’s a beautiful spot, with white sands, deep green sea and amazing sunsets over the Isles (群岛) of Scilly, 28 miles away.
The west-facing beach is popular with surfers, with bigger waves and winds often found at the Gwenver end. There’s a beach restaurant with good views of the bay and the sunsets.
The smallest of Isles of Scilly, Bryher is a mile long, half a mile wide — and a natural wilderness of unbelievable scenery. Walk along the narrow sandy roads to the eastern seaboard and you come to two quiet beaches.
Green Bay has views over to the palm trees of Tresco’s Abbey Gardens, and a little further south is Rushy Bay, a beautiful beach facing the deserted island of Samson.
On Bryher, farm shops sell locally grown produce, and they trust you to leave the money in the pot. It’s that kind of place.
小题1:The best title for this passage is ________.
A.The Beautiful British Isles
B.Secret Beaches on the British Isles
C.The Most Pleasurable Place in Britain
D.My Experience of Searching Beaches
小题2:According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?
A.The author is a tourist guide in a tourist agency.
B.The author likes walking on a rainy cliff-top most.
C.The author wrote the article to advertise for the beaches.
D.The author loves beaches that are not known to most people.
小题3:Which of the following maps can correctly describe the geography position?
(LE="Land’s" End    SC="Sennen" Cove        IS="the" Isles of Scilly)

小题4:In the author’s view, farmers on Bryher are ________.
A.sincereB.selfishC.courageousD.mean
