After two classes, I started to recognize several of the faces in each class. There was always someone braver than the others who would introduce themselves and ask me questions about how I was liking Forks. I tried to be diplomatic, so mostly I just lied a lot to appear to be skilled at dealing with people. At least I never needed the map.

One girl sat next to me in both Trig and Spanish, and she walked with me to the cafeteria for lunch. She was tiny, several inches shorter than my five feet four inches, but her wildly curly dark hair made up a lot of the difference between our heights. I couldn't remember her name, so I smiled and nodded as she gossiped about teachers and classes. I didn't try to keep up.

We sat at the end of a full table with several of her friends, who she introduced to me. I forgot all their names as soon as she spoke them. They seemed impressed by her bravery in speaking to me. The boy from English, Eric, waved at me from across the room.

It was there, sitting in the lunchroom, trying to make conversation with seven curious strangers, that I first saw them.

They were sitting in the corner of the cafeteria, as far away from where I sat as possible in the long room. There were five of them. They weren't talking, and they weren't eating, though they each had a tray of untouched food in front of them. They weren't staring at me, unlike most of the other students, so it was safe to stare at them without fear of meeting an over interested pair of eyes. But it was none of these things that caught and held my attention.

I stared because their faces, so different, so similar, were all extremely, inhumanly beautiful. They were faces you never expected to see except perhaps on the airbrushed pages of a fashion magazine, or painted by an old master as the face of an angel. It was hard to decide who was the most beautiful -- maybe the perfect blond girl, or the bronze-haired boy.

What does the underlined word “diplomatic” mean?

A. smooth B. clever C. honest D. delight

From the passage, we can infer that _______________.

A. “I” was really liking the new place.

B. “I” was not interested in what the girl said.

C. “I” had a bad memory, so it’s hard to remember names.

D. “I” was good at making friends.

According to the last two paragraphs, why did “they” catch “my” attention?

A. Because “they” weren’t talking.

B. Because “they” sat in the corner.

C. Because “they” didn’t eat the food.

D. Because “they” looked incredibly beautiful.

According to the passage, which statement is NOT true?

A. The girl walked with “me” was a little short.

B. “I” saw the five students for the first time.

C. Those students sitting in the corner had finished their food.

D. “I” probably wanted to know more about those five students.

I’m lying on my back in my grandfather’s orchard（果园）,looking up at the branches above me. It is one of the last days of summer. Already the days are shorter and the nights are cooler. Some kinds of apples are already ripe（成熟的）. Others will be ready to pick soon. I think of my grandmother’s apple pie(苹果馅饼), and how I used to make it with her. She died last year, before the apple harvest, and I have not had her pie since. I really miss her. I hear bees busily humming about, visiting the late summer flowers. The gentle hum of their wings nearly sends me to sleep.

The sky is as blue as my grandfather’s eyes. Above me, big white clouds race across the sky like pieces of cotton blowing in the wind. School starts in another week, and time seems to have slowed down.

“Sophie!” calls my grandfather. “Is that you?” I stand up, take his hand, and tell him all about my day as we walk through the orchard. We talk about apples, and bees, and Grandma. He tells me that he misses her too.

He puts his rough, brown farmer’s hand around my shoulder and pulls me close. “You know, Sophie,” he says, “ I spent the morning in the attic（阁楼）, and you’ll never guess what I found. It’s the recipe（烹饪法）for Grandma’s apple pie. I used to help her make it sometimes. I can’t do it all alone, but you used to help her too. Maybe between the two of us, we can work it out. Want to try?”

“ But it won’t be the same without Grandma,” I tell him.

“ That’s true,” he says, “ but nothing is the same without Grandma. Still, I don’t think that she would want us never to have another apple pie. What do you say?” I nod yes, and we walk towards home… towards an afternoon in the farmhouse kitchen, making Grandma’s famous apple pie.

We learn from the passage that Sophie .

A. likes to watch clouds in the attic B. comes to the orchard after school

C. enjoys Grandma’s apple pie very much D. picks many apples in the orchard

Both Sophie and her grandfather used to .

A. help Grandma make apple pies B. spend summer afternoons in the orchard

C. enjoy fresh fruit in the farmhouse kitchen D. walk alone among the apple trees

The underlined part in the last paragraph shows .

A. how much Sophie’s grandmother loved Sophie

B. how much Sophie’s grandfather likes apple pies

C. how much Sophie loves her grandfather’s orchard

D. how much Sophie’s grandfather misses Grandma

Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?.

A. My grandfather’s orchard B. My grandmother’s apple pie

C. A morning in the attic D. The last days of summer

A group of dinner guests were sitting around the table discussing life. One man, a CEO, decided to explain the problems with 26 . He argued, "What's a kid going to learn from a teacher? You know what people say about teachers: those who can, do---those who can't, 27 ."
To stress his point he turned to another guest, "You're a teacher, Bonnie. What do you 28 ?"
Bonnie, who had a reputation for 29 and frankness, replied, "You want to know what I make?” She 30 for a second and then began.
"Well, I make kids work harder than they ever thought they could. I make kids sit through 40 minutes of 31 time while their parents can't make them 32 for 5 minutes without an iPod. You want to know what I make?"
