4.About a year ago,I went to stay at a Detroit hotel.I didn't want to carry too much money with me,so I asked the desk clerk to put a hundred-dollar bill in the safe for me.
The next morning,however,the clerk said he knew nothing about my money.I didn't have any proof that I had given the man the money.There was nothing I could do but go to the nearest lawyer.
The lawyer advised me to return to the hotel with him and give another hundred-dollar bill to the clerk.So we did.An hour later,I went back to the desk and asked for my money.Since I had the lawyer as an eyewitness to the second hundred-dollar bill,the clerk could not say he knew nothing about it.
Another hour later,I put the second part of the lawyer's plan into action.This time both the lawyer and I went to the hotel to ask for the hundred-dollar bill once again,and when the clerk insisted he had already given it to me,I said it was not true.The lawyer said to him,"I saw this gentleman give you a hundred-dollar bill.If you don't return it immediately,I'll be forced to call the police."The clerk realized he had been cheated,so he gave me back the first hundred-dollar bill.
"I don't know how to thank you enough for getting my money back,"I said to the lawyer.And what do you suppose he answered?He said,"Oh,don't thank me.That will be a hundred dollars,please."

4.I remember believing in Santa when I was a very young girl.However,as I grew older,I learned many (41)facts that"proved"his nonexistence.Always (42)curiousby nature,I was determined to use (43)teststo decide whether Santa Claus was (44)real.
The first year of tests (45)happened when I was 5.I decided that if  I (46)stayed up all night on Christmas Eve,I could see if Santa really came down the chimney.(47)However,that was a useless(48)attempt.I fell asleep that year,and when I woke up,I saw a  (49)beautifully wrapped present under the (50)tree.
At age 7,I came up with another test to see if Santa was real.That year,I didn't send out my Christmas letter to Santa because I wanted (51)nothing for Christmas,but this turned into a plot.By then,I(52)already knew Santa wasn't real,but I wanted enough (53)evidence to support this.That year was (54)interesting,because on Christmas Eve,my mother dragged me to our local Wal-Mart and led me around the toy section.I (55)refused to say a word,but did let my eyes (56)focus on a ballet set.I (57)figured that"Santa"wouldn't know what I wanted because he shouldn't be able to read my (58)mind.However,mother would know everything that caught my eyes in the store.If I got the ballet set the next morning,I would have my evidence.Christmas morning,there was the ballet set,sitting under the tree again.(59)AsI didn't use it much,mother ended up returning it a few days later.She (60)claimed Santa was generous enough to leave a receipt.That was the end to my task to discover the existence of Santa.

17.My 16-year-old son,Anton,had gone to the local swimming hole.Most of the kids who swim there are fit and strong teens,and there are plenty of rocks for them to use as safe harbors,so I had no fears for his well-being.Still,the firefighter's first words,"You need to come up here to the Stillwater River,"made me catch my breath.
When I got to the river,I saw Anton sitting quietly on a low platform of the fire engine,with a towel wrapped about his shoulders.
I hurried over to him."You OK?"I asked.
"Yeah,"was all he said.But my eyes begged for an explanation.I didn't get it from my son.
The story was this:A couple in their 20s,unfamiliar with the Stillwater,had gotten caught in the current and began screaming for help.Witout hesitation Anton and his friend dived into the water,swam out to the drowning(溺水的) woman,and brought her safely to shore.
In an age in which the world"hero"is broadcast with abandon(随意)and seemingly applied to anyone,I realized the real thing in my son and his friend-the disregarding of personal safety for the sake of another human being.I know that teens are headstrong and self-centered,but this didn't lower the gravity of the event and the desire to do good.
Along the way home I tried to get some more information from him,but the only words were,"What's for supper?"
I thought twice about the tragedy(悲剧) that might have been.Questions flew across my mind like a flight of swallows:Would I have risked my life to save a drowning person?Or would I have chosen to dial 911?Would I have told the story over and over to anyone who'd listen?
The next morning,when Anton got up,I half expected him to tell me the story from his point of view,now that he had some distance from the event.But all he did was to toast a pie,pull himself together,and head for the door to begin the new day.

2.My wife and I have always been friendly with the clerks at the local convenience store.I don't think many people appreciate what a difficult job these folks have.They work for a little over minimum wage and I often wonder how they make ends meet.
One of the clerks,Charlie,was always wearing his glasses but he didn't one day.I asked him about it and he said they'd been out of order and that he couldn't afford a new pair.His family needed money.It was obvious that he was having a difficult time.
We wanted to help him,so we turned to our own eye doctor for assistance with a plan.We had his secretary contact him,asking him to come in for an eye exam for free.We told the doctor to let him order whatever glasses he wanted and that we would pay for them.Although Charlie questioned what was going on,the doctor just told him that someone had offered the money for his new glasses.When we went in to pay the bill,the doctor told us he was so touched by our idea that he waived the exam fee and only charged us for half the price of the glasses!
It was so wonderful to see Charlie in her new glasses and he enjoyed telling all the regular customers how the gift came about.I'm sure that upon hearing her story,ideas of kindness may have emerged in the minds of many.

2.Since my family were not going to be helpful about my taking a cooking job,I decided I would look for one all by myself and not to tell them about it till I'd got a permanent one.
I had seen an agency advertised in a local paper,so as soon as there was no one about to say"where are you going?"I rushed out of the house in search of it.I was wildly excited,and as nervous as if I were going on the stage.Finding the place quite easily,I tore up three flights of stairs,and swung breathlessly through a door which said"Enter without knocking,if you please."
The simple atmosphere of the office calmed me,and I sat down on the edge of a chair.The woman at the desk opposite looked carefully at me.Then she questioned me in a low voice.I answered softly and started to feel helpless.She wondered why I was looking for this sort of job,so I felt I had to give her the idea of a widowed mother struggling against poverty.But I felt more helpless when she told me that it would be difficult to get a job without experience or references.Suddenly,the telephone on her desk rang.While having a mysterious conversation,she kept looking at me.Then I heard her say:
"In fact,I've got someone here who might suit."She wrote down a number,and my spirits rose as she held out the paper to me,saying:"Ring up this lady.She wants a cook immediately.Cook a dinner for ten people tomorrow.Could you manage that,I wonder?"
"Oh,yes,"said I-never having cooked for more than four.Then I rushed out and called the lady--Miss Cathy.I said confidently that I was just what she was looking for."Are you sure?"she kept saying.Anyway she decided to employ me and a permanent position if I carried out the promise of my self-praise.I asked her what tomorrow's menu was to be.
"Just a small,simple dinner:lobster cocktail,soup,turbot Mornay,fruit salad and a savory."In a rather shaken voice I promised to turn up in good time tomorrow and rang off.

35.Why did the author decide to look for a job on her own?D
A.Because she believed that her family were not willing to help her.
B.Because she was a widowed mother struggling against poverty.
C.Because she wanted to get some professional experience by herself.
D.Because she thought her family didn't want her to become a cook.
36.What did the author feel on her way?B
A.Excited but worried.
B.Nervous and excited.
C.Easy and curious.
D.Helpless but excited.
37.Why didn't the woman give the author the job at first?C
A.Because the woman found that the author didn't respect her.
B.Because the woman realized that the author made up a story.
C.Because the girl hadn't been a cook before or got a reference.
D.Because the woman had already hired a more suitable cook.
38.According to the text,what would the author most probably do after the call?A
A.Read some cookery books.
B.Call her family and tell them the news.
C.Go to the woman's house.
D.Buy what the woman told her at once.
