I was on my lunch break in the city, enjoying a salad at an outdoor café, when a shabby homeless lady came waking towards me. She was _36_ everyone who walked past her for spare_37_ and she looked very dirty. My _38  reaction was fear and I hoped she wouldn’t come near me, but she did.. I was on the phone and when she__39_ , I said “ I’m on the phone” in the nicest way I could, telling myself what she needed was a lesson in _40_. She walked away, mumbling(自言自语), “ I’m_41_ you. I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I’ll leave.” And she turned the corner.
_42_ ,I would feel relieved or satisfied, but something in me couldn’t _43_ . Without another thought, I looked in my _44_ for the spare change I had. I even started searching through my entire purse, the pockets, everything for all of the change I could _45_ find to give. I got up and walked towards this lady and gave her all I _46_. She held my hand and said, “ Thank you!” Her hand was 47 and dirty, but I didn’t mind 48 her hand. I wanted to be there for her , when normally I would  49 the other way.

In the winter vocation of 2008, I was fixed with a job. I worked as a(n) 21  at Mr Breen’s  fruit shop. The fruit shop did good business. Most of the trade came from the housewives who lived in the neighborhood, 22_ he also had regular customers who arrived outside the shop in cars. Mr Breen 23 them all by names and they sometimes even had their order already made up, always 24  me to carry it out to their car. They were clearly longstanding customers, and I 25 they must have stayed faithful to him because he had  promised to sell good quality fruits. He had a way with them---- I had to 26  that. He called every woman “madam” for a start, 27 those who clearly were not, but when he said it, it did not sound like flattery(恭维). It just sounded 28  in an old-fashioned way.

He was always looking for  35 for nothing.

Recently a Beijing father sent in a question at an Internet forum (论坛) asking what “PK” meant.
“My family has been watching the ‘Super Girl’ singing competition TV programme. My little daughter asked me what ‘PK’ meant, but I had no idea,” explained the puzzled father.
To a lot of Chinese young people who have been playing games online, it is impossible not to know this term. In such Internet games, “PK” is short for “Player Kill”, in which two players fight until one ends the life of the other.
In the case of the “Super Girl” singing competition, “PK” was used to refer to the stage where two singers have to compete with each other for only one chance to go up in competition ranking (排名).
Like this father, Chinese teachers at high schools have also been finding their students’ compositions using Internet jargons which are difficult to understand. A high school teacher from Tianjin asked her students to write compositions with simple language, but they came up with a lot of Internet jargons that she didn’t understand.
“My ‘GG’ came back this summer from college. He told me I’ve grown up to be a ‘PLMM’. I loved to ‘FB’ with him together; he always took me to the ‘KPM’,” went one composition.
“GG” means Ge Ge (Chinese pinyin for brother). “PLMM” refers to Piao Liang Mei Mei (beautiful girl). “FB” means Fu Bai (corruption). “KPM” is short for KFC, Pizza Hut and McDonald’s.
Some specialists welcome Internet jargons as a new development in language.
If you do not even know what a Kong Long (dinosaur, referring to an ugly looking female) or a Qing Wa (frog, referring to an ugly looking male) is, you will possibly be regarded as a Cai Niao!
小题1: By writing the article, the writer tries to ________.
A.explain some Internet languageB.suggest common Internet language
C.laugh at the Beijing fatherD.draw our attention to Internet language
小题2:What does the writer think about the term “PK”?
A.Fathers can’t possibly know it.B.The daughter should understand it.
C.Online game players may know it.D.“Super Girl” shouldn’t have used it.
小题3: The examples of the Beijing father and the Tianjin teacher are used to show that Internet jargons ________.
A.are used not only onlineB.can be understood very well
C.are welcomed by all the peopleD.cause trouble to our mother tongue
小题4:The underlined word “jargons” probably means  ________.
A.expressionsB.phrasesC.lettersD.spellings
小题5: What would be the best title for the passage?
A.A puzzled fatherB.Do you speak Internet jargons?
C.Keep away from Internet jargonsD.Kong Long or Qing Wa?

A Love Note To My Mom
When I was a little girl, would often accompany you as you modeled for fashion photographers. It was years later that finally understood what role modeling  1 in your life. Little did I known you were  2 every penny you earned to go to  3  school.
I cannot thank you enough for  4 you told me one autumn afternoon when I was nine. After finishing my homework. I wanted into the dining where you were buried  5   piles of law books. I was  6  .Why were you doing what I do—memorizing textbooks and studying for  7  ?When you said you were in law school, I was more puzzled. I didn’t known. Moms 8  be lawyers too. You smiled and said,“In life, you can do anything you want to do.”
As young as I was ,that statement kept   9  in my ears. I watched as you faced the   10  of completing your studies, staring companies with Dad, while still being a   11  and a Mom if five kids. I was exhausted  just watching you   12  .With your words of wisdom in my   13  mind, I suddenly felt unlimited freedom to dream. My whole world   14  .I set out to live my life filled with   15  ,seeing endless possibilities for personal and professional achievements.
Your words became my motto. I   16  found myself in the unique position of being either the first (woman doctor in Maryland Rotary)  17   one of the few women (chief medical reporters) in my field. I gained strength every time I said , “Yes, I’ll try that.”
Encouraged by your   18  , I have forged ahead (毅然前行) with my life’s journey, less afraid to make mistakes, and   19  meeting each challenge. You did it, and now I’m   20  it. Sorry, got to run. So much to do, so many dreams to live.

When you are far away from home for the first time and have a lot to adjust to,you can't do it alone. However independent you are,it is good to have a roommate during your first year.
Living with someone helps ease your loneliness. Sure it may seem appealing to be able to play your music and turn up your TV as loud as you want, but coming home to an empty room every day can be depressing. If you have a bad day, you may want to talk to someone.
Friends are great sources of venting (宣泄), but friends can't always be there. Even worse, they may be self­centered and show no interest in your problem. It's not that roommates aren't like this, but even just small talk can help you feel better.
Having a roommate teaches you how to get along with people and settle conflict. You two should set up rules immediately and discuss what to do when there is conflict. If you two don't like each other,you still study,relax,and sleep in the same room. You must find a way to get along.
Finally,having a roommate exposes (使接触) you to different ways of living. Your roommate may come from a different city,and have different living habits. He or she also has different interests and personalities. You don't have to end up liking the same things your roommate does,but try to learn something different. You will be surrounded by many different people in college and have the chance to try things you never have before. Why not start learning from your roommate?
Having a roommate gives you the skills and personal background you will need to utilize (利用) when you are out on your own. Make the most of living with a stranger and besides,there will be plenty of opportunities for you to have your own room later in your college years.
小题1:Who are probably the intended readers of the passage?
A.University teachers.
B.Students who are not independent.
C.Students in the first year of college.
D.Students who will graduate from college soon.

A.roommates will become good friends in the end
B.there may be disagreements between roommates
C.students can choose those they like as their roommates
D.those with similar interests can become roommates

D.state the different ways of living
They are among the 250, 000 people under the age of 25 who are out of work in the Netherlands, a group that makes up 40 percent of the nation’s unemployed.A storm of anger boils up at the government-sponsored (政府资助的) youth center, even among those who are continuing their studies.
“We study for jobs that don’t exist,” Nicollets Steggerda, 23, said.
After thirty years of prosperity, unemployment among 10 member nations of the European Community has reached as much as 11 percent, affecting a total of 12.3 million people, and the number is climbing.
The bitter disappointment long expressed by British youths is spreading across the Continent.The title of a rock song “No Future” can now be seen written on the brick walls of closed factories in Belgium and France.
One form of protest(抗议) tends to put the responsibility for a country’s economic troubles on the large numbers of “guest workers” from Third World nations, people welcomed in Western Europe in the years of prosperity.
Young Europeans, brought up in an extended period of economic success and general stability, seem to be similar to Americans more than they do their own parents.Material enjoyment has given them a sense of expectation, even the right to a standard of living that they see around them.
“And so we pass the days at the discos, or meet people at the café, and sit and stare,” said Isabella Cault."There is usually not much conversation.You look for happiness.Sometimes you even find it.”
小题1:Unemployment in the Netherlands has affected _______
A.one million peopleB.250,000 people
C.1ess than half of the population D.about 0.6 million people
小题2:What Nicollete Steggerda said (Para.2) means that ________.
A.the students cannot get work after graduation
B.what the students learn is more than necessary
C.the students’ aim in study is not clear
D.school education is not sufficient
小题3:The underlined word ‘‘it” in the last paragraph most probably refers to ________.
A.material enjoymentB.a sense of expectation
C.happinessD.a job
These days no car show is complete without an electric car, and the 2011 North American International Auto Show in Detroit, US, which ran from January 10 to 23, was no exception.
Among the fully electric vehicles on display were the Ford Focus Electric and the Honda Fit EV. BMW and Volvo also had prominent displays at the show, proving that they can produce practical, yet spacious family-oriented electric cars.
Industry insiders at the show claimed that more efficient batteries, improved performance and greater consumer acceptance could make 2011 the “year of electric car”.
It’s long been clear that electric cars score heavily for convenience. They are, for instance, much easier to maintain than gasoline-powered cars. When the battery runs out, you simply replace it or recharge it, just like you would for a cell phone or a laptop.
This is also a much cheaper method than filling your tank with gasoline. Better yet, electric cars don’t emit exhaust fumes. As a result, they don’t produce environmentally damaging greenhouse gases.
It appears that improved technology is making electric cars and their maintenance much more user-friendly. So, what are the obstacles which are preventing electric cars from becoming popular and fashionable?
Home charging for electric cars could be extremely convenient for users. However, it is also a potential obstacle. For a start, installing charging stations in owners’ homes will be a challenge, particularly for those who have to park several blocks away from their homes.
Also, charging the car’s battery still takes quite a long time. It may be some time yet before you can recharge an electric car in the same time as you can refill your gas tank.
Another problem is that many electric vehicles have limited ranges that may only allow for journeys of 50 miles (80 km) or less between charges. In cases where a driver wishes to charge the car primarily at home (perhaps overnight), this limits their daily driving to the range of their vehicle.
This may be one reason why hybrid cars are now becoming more popular. A hybrid car has more than one energy source, usually a traditional gasoline fuel tank and an electric battery. It’s like a more practical version of an electric car: It’s greener than a conventional vehicle, with fewer CO2 emissions, yet it also doubles as a conventional vehicle.
“I would say that hybrid is a transition to fully electronic,” Road and Track magazine editor Richard Horman told Detroit News during the show. “The trend is for lighter, smarter, more economical cars. Of course, electronic vehicles are meant to be that way.”
This sounds promising, particularly in light of the fact that the show featured more electric cars from big manufacturers than ever before.
However, it seems that the technology associated with electric cars is not yet able to fully meet people’s expectations. Don’t expect gasoline-powered cars to disappear from roads just yet.
小题1: What made electric cars more convenient?   
A.Easier maintenance.B.High scores on the show.
C.Practicality and large space.D.Much lower prices.
小题2: Which of the following could NOT act as a potential obstacle of electric cars?
A.It is rough work to install charging stations at home.
B.It is time-consuming to charge the batteries.
C.The ranges between charges are limited.
D.There’s no need to fill the tank with petrol.
小题3:In Paragraph 10, the underlined word “hybrid” is probably closest in meaning to ________.
A.gasolineB.electricC.combined D.separated
小题4:The writer’s purpose in writing this passage is to_________.
A.introduce the 2011 Auto Show in USB.get readers informed of electric cars
C.comment on different types of carsD.advertise for electric cars
