This little story I’m about to tell you happened when I was about 11 years old, and I’II never forget it. I was at my friend Jenny’s __41__  after school one day, and we were doing (or not doing) homework.. __42__ I was there, Jenny’s mom came over to visit.
I don’t remember her name__43__ what her face looked like. I just remember her hands, her voice and the__44__  she taught me.
I can still see her hand __45__  for mine in our introduction. __46__  were so beautiful, I thought; rich, dark skin__47__ complemented(涂了) by the orange colored polish on her nails. Then I __48__ her saying, and not at all in a condescending(居高临下的) __49__ .“Oh no, that is NOT how you shake hands. Let me show you _50___.”
After that, I just remember her voice __51__ the importance of a good handshake, conveying(传递) a positive sense of self, looking at _52___ person in the eye, making that first moment matter…I think in that exchange I first understood__53__.
I respected her for __54__ the time to teach me about one of those subtleties(细微之处) in life. I appreciated the fact __55__  she didn’t look down upon me because I was 11 or because I didn’t know something. And so because of that I felt somewhat respected. I mean the _56___ she treated me. It felt good to be __57__ like a real person. I also appreciate her idea that _58__ someone doesn’t pay attention to something, be patient and point him or her__59__  the right direction. I__60__ her every time I meet someone and shake hands. And I’m so thankful for her little lesson.

Twenty-first century humanity has mapped oceans and mountains, visited the moon, and surveyed the planets. But for all the progress, people still don’t know one another very well.
That brings about Theodore Zeldin’s “feast of conversation”-events where individuals pair with persons they don’t know for three hours of guided talk designed to get the past “Where are you from?”
Mr. Zeldin, an Oxford University professor, heads Oxford Muse, a 10-year-old foundation based on the idea that what people need is not more information, but more inspiration and encouragement.
The “feast” in London looks not at politics or events, but at how people have felt about work, relations among the sexes, hopes and fears, enemies and authority, the shape of their lives. The “menu of conversation” includes topics like “How have your priorities(优先考虑的事) changed over the years?” Or, “What have you rebelled against the past?”
As participants gathered, Zeldin opened with a speech: that despite instant communications in a globalized age, issues of human heart remain. Many people are lonely, or in routines that discourage knowing the depth of one another. “We are trapped in shallow conversations and the whole point now is to think, which is sometimes painful,” he says. “But thinking interaction is what separates us from other species, except maybe dogs…who do have generations of human interactions.”
The main rules of the “feast”: Don’t pair with someone you know or ask questions you would not answer. The only awkward moment came when the multi-racial crowd of young adults to seniors, in sun hats, ties and dresses, looked to see whom they would be ‘intimate’ with for hours. But 15 minutes later, everyone was seated and talking, continuing full force until organizers interrupted them 180 minutes later.
“It’s encouraging to see the world is not just a place of oppression and distance from each other,” Zeldin summed up. “What we did is not ordinary, but it can’t be madder than the world already is.”
Some said they felt “liberated” to talk on sensitive topics. Thirty-something Peter, from East London, said that “it might take weeks or months to get to the level of interaction we suddenly opened up.”
小题1:What can the “conversations” be best described as?
A.Deep and one-on-one.B.Sensitive and mad.
C.Instant and inspiring.D.Ordinary and encouraging.
小题2:In a “feast of conversations”, participants ______.
A.pair freely with anyone they like
B.have a guided talk for a set of period of time
C.ask questions they themselves would not answer
D.wear clothes reflecting multi-racial features.
小题3:In paragraph 6, “they would be ‘intimate’” is closest in meaning to “______”.
A.they would have physical contactB.they would have in-depth talk
C.they would be close friendsD.they would exchange basic information
小题4:From the passage, we can conclude that what Zeldin does is ______.
A.an attempt to promote thinking interaction
B.one of the maddest activities ever conducted
C.a try to liberate people from old-fashioned ideas
D.an effort to give people a chance of talking freely
The Man was very sad. He knew that the Cat's days were numbered. The doctor had said there wasn’t anything more that could be done, and that he should take the Cat home and make him as comfortable as possible.
A tear rolled down the Man’s cheek and landed on the Cat’s forehead, The Cat gave him a slightly annoyed look. “Why do you cry, Man?” the Cat asked. “Because you can’t bear the thought of losing me? Because you think you can never replace me?” The Man nodded “yes”.
“Pick up that piece of string from the floor. There, my ‘toy’. The Man reached over and picked up the string. It was about two feet long and the Cat had been able to entertain himself for hours with it. “Now take each end of the string in one hand,” the Cat ordered. The Man did so.
“The end in your left hand is my birth and the end in your right hand is my death. Now bring the two ends together,” the Cat said. The man did so. Then the Cat continued, “You have made a continuous circle. Does any point along the string appear to be different, worse or better than any other part of the string?” The Man inspected the string and then shook his head.
“Close your eyes.” the Cat said. “Now lick your hand.” The Man widened his eyes in surprise. “Just do it,” the Cat said. “Lick your hand, think of me in all my familiar places, and think about all the pieces of string.”
Licking his hand, he discovered what a cat must know, that licking a paw is very calming and allows one to think more clearly. He continued licking and the corners of his mouth turned upward into the first smile he had shown in days. He waited for the Cat to tell him to stop, and when he didn’t, he opened his eyes. The Cat’s eyes were closed. The Man stroked(轻抚) the warm, brown fur, but the Cat was gone.
One day, not long after, there was a new cat on his lap. She was a lovely white cat. It is very different from his earlier beloved Cat and very much the same.
小题1:Why did the Cat give the man a slightly annoyed look?
A.Because the man’s tears made the Cat really anxious.
B.Because the Cat didn’t know what made the man burst into tears.
C.Because the Cat couldn’t go to sleep when the man was in low spirits.
D.Because the man didn’t have to be so sad and concerned.
小题2:According to the text, which of the following is the reason why a cat licks paws?
A.Licking paws can make a cat remain calm and have a clear mind.
B.Licking paws will make a cat happy and energetic.
C.Licking paws will make a cat find out many unknown secrets.
D.Licking paws can make a cat stay tidy and healthy.
小题3:What does the underlined word “string” in paragraph 3 stand for?

B.Life has no end and death is just a new beginning.
C.We should take a positive attitude towards life and live life to its fullest.
D.It gives us some suggestions on how to relieve ourselves when a pet passes away.

It was the golden season. I could see the yellow leaves 小题4: on the cool 小题5: .In such a season, I liked walking alone in the leaves, 小题6: to the sound of them.
Autumn is a 小题7: season and life is uninteresting. The free days always get me 小题8: .But one day, the sound of a violin 小题9: into my ears like a stream (小溪) flowing in the mountains. I was so surprised that I jumped to see what it was. A young girl, standing in the wind, was 小题10: in playing her violin.
I had 小题11: seen her before. The music was so nice that I listened quietly. Lost in the music, I didn't know that I had been 小题12: there for so long but my existence (存在) did not seem to disturb her.
Leaves were still falling. Every day she played the violin in the corner of the building 小题13:I went downstairs to watch her performance. I was the only listener. The autumn seemed no longer lonely and life became  小题14: .  小题15: we didn't know each other, I thought we were already good friends. I believe she also loved me.
Autumn was nearly over. One day, when I was listening carefully, the sound suddenly  小题16: . To my astonishment (惊讶), the girl came over to me.
“You must like violin.” she said.
“Yes. And you play very well. Why did you stop?” I asked.
Suddenly, a 小题17: expression appeared on her face and I could feel something unusual.
“I came here to see my grandmother, but now I must leave. I once played very badly. It was your listening every day that 小题18: me.” she said.
“In fact, it was your playing 小题19: gave me a meaningful autumn,” I answered, “Let's be friends.”
The girl smiled, and so did I.
I never heard her play again in my life. I no longer went downstairs to listen like before. Only thick leaves were left behind. But I will always remember the fine figure (身影) of the girl. She is like a 小题20: —so short, so bright, like a shooting star giving off so much light that it makes the autumn beautiful.

“Depend on yourself” is what nature says to every man. Parents can help you. Teachers can help you. But all these only help you to help yourself.
There have been many great men in history. But many of them were very poor in boyhood, and had no uncles, aunts, or friends to help them. Schools were few and low. They could not depend on them for an education. They saw how it was, and set to work with all their strength to know something. They worked their own way up to fame.
One of the most famous teachers in England used to tell his pupils, “I cannot make worthy men of you, but I can help you make men of yourselves.”
Some young men have no ambitions(抱负) to do anything; and they are to be pitied. They can never succeed unless they see their foolishness, and change their courses. They are nothing now, and will be nothing as long as they live, unless they accept the advice of parents and teachers, and depend upon their own honest and serious efforts.
小题1:The best title for this passage is ________.
A.Depend on Yourself
B.Don’t Depend on Your Parents
C.Nobody can help you
D.The Good Advice
小题2: From the passage we know that many great men in history ________.
A.learned everything themselves in boyhood
B.didn’t receive any education
C.had no relatives or friends

A.Parents can make you succeed.
B.Great men in history were very poor.
C.Teachers would not like to help you to be a man.
D.Only you can make yourself a great man.
小题4:Why have some young men failed in everything?
A.They have no ambitions.
B.They are to be pitied.
C.They have changed their courses.
D.They have seen their foolishness.

A little girl lived in a small, very simple, poor house on a hill and as she grew she would play in the small garden. There, she was able to see over the garden fence and across the valley to a wonderful house high on the hill. This house had golden windows, so golden and shining that the little girl would dream of how magic it would be to grow up and live in a house with golden windows instead of an ordinary house like hers. Although she loved her parents and her family, she yearned to live in such a golden house and dreamed all day about how wonderful and exciting it must feel to live there.
When she got to an age when she gained enough skill and sensibility to go outside her garden fence, she asked her mother if she could go for a bike ride outside the gate and down the lane. After pleading with her, her mother finally allowed her to go, insisting that she should keep close to the house and not wander too far. The day was beautiful and the little girl knew exactly where she was heading! Down the lane and across the valley, she rode her bike until she got to the gate of the golden house across on the other hill.
As she dismounted her bike and leaned it against the gate post, she focused on the path that led to the house and then on the house itself. She was so disappointed as she realized all the windows were plain and rather dirty, reflecting nothing other than the sad neglect of the house that was derelict.
So sad she didn't go any further and turned, and heart broken as she remounted her bike. As she glanced up she saw a sight to amaze her. There across the way on her side of the valley was a little house and its windows glistened golden as the sun shone on her little home.
She realized that she had been living in her golden house and all the love and care she found there was what made her home the 'golden house'. Everything she dreamed was right there in front ofher nose!

小题3:What amazed the girl was that_____
A. Her home was another golden house
B. There was no golden house indeed

B. The girl was determined to go to the golden house at the beginning.
C. The girl had no idea where she was heading after leaving home.

I recently turned fifty, which is young for a tree, midlife for an elephant, and ancient for a sportsman. Fifty is a nice number for the states in the US or for a national speed limit but it is not a number that I was prepared to have hung on me. Fifty is supposed to be my father’s age, but now I am stuck with this number and everything it means.
A few days ago, a friend tried to cheer me up by saying, “Fifty is what forty used to be.” He had made an inspirational (有灵感的) point. Am I over the hill ? People keep telling me that the hill has been moved, and I keep telling them that the high-jump bar has dropped from the six feet I once easily cleared to the four feet that is impossible for me now.
“You are not getting older, you are getting better.” Says Dr. Joyce Brothers. This, however, is the kind of doctor who inspires a second opinion.
And so as I approach the day when I cannot even jump over the tennis net, I am moved to share some thoughts on aging with you, I am moved to show how aging feels to me physically and mentally. Getting older, of course, is obviously a better change than the one that brings you eulogies(悼词). In fact, a poet name Robert Browning considered it the best change of all:
Grow old along with me !
The best is yet to me.
Whether or not Browning was right, most of my first fifty years have been golden ones, so I will settle for what is ahead being as good as what has gone by. I find myself moving toward what is ahead with a curious blend(混合) of both fighting and accepting my aging, hoping that the philosopher(哲学家) was right when he said , “old is always fifteen years from now.”
小题1:The author seems to tell us in Paragraph 1 that ______.
A.time alone will tellB.time goes by quickly
C.time will show what is right D.time makes one forget the past.

小题4:We can infer from the passage that ________ .

C.the old should take more exercise
D.the old should fill themselves with curiosity

B.The author is optimistic about his future.
C.the author used to think 50 was far away from him.
