Early this morning, I got up to make a batch of Rice Krispie treats（大米花糖） for my neighbor across the hall. She 21 greets me when we see each other, and her little boy, who’s now 4, won’t talk to me either.
Last Monday, she called the firefighters when a pan I’d forgotten on the stove caused my flat to 22 . I had gone for a walk, but when I came home the street in front of our apartment was 23 by a police car, a fire truck and an ambulance! 24 I saw them, I remembered the pan!
I felt safe knowing that 25 we don’t get along, my neighbor had done the right thing and didn’t blame me. Hence, the Rice Krispie treats.
Last Christmas, my neighbor revealed that she had been a little angry about me because of a(n) __26___ four years ago. I had apologized and asked if there was anything I could do to ___27___ our relationship, but she would not accept my 28 .
Her direct refusal really 29 me. After that, I decided I’d just leave her be—a relationship 30 two to work.
So, you see, I was really scared she was going to refuse my offer again, 31 me standing on her 32 holding my plate of treats. Then, I reminded myself of how good I had felt the day before when I’d done some random acts of ___33___ after telling myself: “ Feel the fear, and do it 34 !”
After placing the Rice Krispie treats on a beautiful plate, I opened my apartment door and met her in the hall way.

She took the plate and we talked a bit about 38 she’d become aware of the smoke in my flat before parting ways.
Back at home I 39 a “ happy dance”, because I had been kind even though I wasn’t sure it would be appreciated. I want to be able to be kind without expecting people to 40 in a certain way.

If we were asked exactly what we were doing a year ago，we should probably have to say that we could not remember. But if we had kept a book and had written in it an account of what we did each day，we should be able to give an answer to the question.
It is the same in history .Many things have been forgotten because we do not have any written account of them .Sometimes men did keep a record of the most important happenings in their country，but often it was destroyed by fire or in a war．Sometimes there was never any written record at all because the people of that time and place did not know how to write．For example，we know a good deal about the people who lived in China 4，000 years ago, because they could write and leave written records for those who lived after them．But we know almost nothing about the people who lived even 200 years ago in central Africa, because they had not learned to write．
Sometimes, of course，even if the people cannot write，they may know something of the past．They have heard about it from older people，and often songs and dances and stories have been made about the most important happenings，and these have been sung and acted and told for many generations, for most people are proud to tell what their fathers did in the past．This we may call “remembered history”．Some of it has now been written down. It is not so exact or so valuable to us as written history is，because words are much more easily changed when used again and again in speech than when copied in writing．But where there are no written records，such spoken stories are often very helpful．

A．“Remembered history”，compared with written history，is less reliable |

B．Written records of the past play the most important role in our learning of the human history． |
|
C．A written account of our daily activities helps US to be able to answer many questions． |
|
D．Where there are no written records．there is no history． |
2.We know very little about the central Africa 200 years ago because ___
|
A．there was nothing worth being written down at that time |
|
B．the people there ignored the importance of keeping a record |
|
C．the written records were perhaps destroyed by a fire |
|
D．the people there did not know how to write |
3.“Remembered history” refers to ___．
|
A．history based on a person’s imagination |
|
B．stories of important happenings passed down from mouth to mouth |
|
C．songs and dances about the most important events |
|

|
A．it is written down |
B．no written account is available |
|
C．it proves to be time |

|

|
B．not burnt their written records in wars |
|
C．told exact stories of the most important happenings |

I’m an operating engineer, running crane(起重机) in New York City. I was in the countryside, playing golf when we got the call that a plane had 36 the World Trade Centre. We checked out of the hotel immediately and started 37 our way downtown. When I got home, I called the rescue center and they told me to come 38 and get on the 39 list.
The next morning I went down to the 40 at about 5 A. M., and four hours later I 41 the call to come down to West Street. I called my wife and told her not to 42 me, and that I would stay in 43 with her. I took the subway. It stopped at West Fourth Street, so I had to 44 the rest of the way.
And somewhere in there I became 45 when I went into something I 46 . I once worked there in 1966 for the 47 of the World Trade Centre. On halfway on September 12, I was frightened to see the World Trade Centre was a huge pile, maybe ten 48 tall. And it was burning. I started to ask 49 in which my crane might be 50 a whistle blew suddenly warning us of some danger. I saw people running away and I really didn’t know what to do. So I did the same, too. It was as if they had 51 the bulls go in Spain and we were running through the street. People falling down, people 52 them up as they came by, and carrying them, just to get them out of the way, because something was extremely 53 . I didn’t even look back. We stopped running when we got to the Battery Tunnel, and I caught my 54 and said, “Oh, my God, I’m going to die.”
Then I 55 a little bit, thinking about what we should do next. As we started again we knocked into a fire chief officer and we asked, “What can we do to help you?”
