【题目】Frederick Callison has been posting up outside of a Sacramento Smart & Final grocery store for the past two years and his method of looking for help has finally paid off.

Michael Marteen noticed Callison while shopping with his family on Feb. 24. Used to seeing homeless people ask for food and money, Marteen found it refreshing to see someone making an effort to find work in such difficult situations.

When Marteen approached him, he noticed Callison was sitting on a sleeping bag with several resumes(简历)neatly laid out, along with a sign that read“need work and food.”

“When I asked if I could see his resume, he stood right up to hand one to me and then started telling me all about his experience as if it were an interview,”Marteen toldTODAY. “I’ve been in situations where I had nothing and had to try extremely hard to get work, and there he was doing that, so I have a lot of respect for him.”

Marteen bought him a bottle of water and some ravioli（馄饨）and then took a picture of his resume to post on Facebook, not knowing if anything would come of it.

Sure enough, someone came across his post and offered Callison a job as a cook at a downtown restaurant called Pizza Rocks.

“He was excited about landing a job and very grateful for the opportunity,” Marteen said. “He was up the night before studying the menu for hours.”

The restaurant gave him clothes to wear and a friend is providing Callison with a place to stay until he can get back on his feet.

“It’s easy to look at someone and not see anything but a homeless man, but after talking to him I realized he’s so much more than that,” Marteen said. “He’s a well spoken, cool and friendly guy who knows what he wants and is going after it.”

【题目】阅读理解。

The computer keyboard helped kill shorthand—a system of rapid handwriting, and now it’s threatening to finish off handwriting as a whole. When handwritten essays were introduced on the SAT exams for the class of 2012, just 15% of the most 1.5 million students wrote their answers in cursive(草写字母). The rest? Block letters.

And those college hopefuls are just the first edge of a wave of US students who no longer get much handwriting instructions in the primary grades, frequently 10 minutes a day or less. As a result, more and more students struggle to read and write cursive.

At Keene Mill Elementary School in Springfield, all their poems and stories are typed. Children in Fairfax County schools are taught keyboarding beginning in kindergarten. Ol der students who never mastered handwriting say it doesn’t affect their grades.

There are those who say the culture is at a crossing, turning from the written word to the typed one. If handwriting becomes a lost form of communication, does it matter?

It was at University Virginia that researchers recently discovered a previously unknown poem by Robert, written in his unique script. Handwritten documents are more valuable to researchers, historians say, because their authenticity(真实性) can be confirmed. Students also find them more fascinating.

The loss of handwriting also may be a cognitive(认知的) opportunity missed. Several academic studies have found that good handwriting skills at a young age can help children express their thoughts better—a lifelong benefit.

It doesn’t take much to teach btter handwriting skills. At some schools in Prince George’s County, elementary school students use a program called Handwriting Without Tears for 15 minutes a day. They learn the correct formation of manuscript letters through second grade, and cursive letters in third grade.

There are always going to be some kids who struggle with handwriting because of their particular neurological(神经系统的) writing, learning issues or poor motor skills. Educators often point to this factor in support of keyboarding.

【1】 What is the author concerned about after 2012 Sat exams?

A. Keyboarding. B. Shorthand.

C. Handwriting. D. Block letters.

【2】 A poem by Robert mentioned in the passage is used to ____________.

A. prove how valuable handwriting is

B. explain what a famous poet he is

C. show how unique his poem is

D. stress how fascinating the documents are

【3】 The example of Handwriting Without Tears helps to argue that _____________.

A. the schools are responsible for the loss of handwriting

B. the loss of handwriting is a cognitive opport unity missed

C. it doesn’t take much to teach better handwriting skills

D. the culture is turning from the written word to the typed one

【4】 According to the author, when is a perfect time to learn handwriting?

A. Kindergarten. B. Primary school.

C. High school. D. College.

【5】 What is the author’s attitude towards this debate?

A. Devotion. B. Encouragement.

C. Critical. D. Objective.

【题目】So many of us hold on to little complaints that may have come from an argument, a misunderstanding, the way we were raised, or some other painful events. Stubbornly, we wait for someone else to reach out to us—believing this is the only way we can forgive or rekindle a friendship or family relationship.

A friend of mine, recently told me that she hadn't spoken to her son in almost three years. She said that she and her son had had a disagreement about his wife and that she wouldn't speak to him again unless he called first. When I suggested that she be the one to reach out, she said, “I can't do that. He's the one who should apologize.” After a little gentle encouragement, however, she did decide to be the first one to reach out. To her amazement, her son was grateful for her willingness to call and offered an apology of his own. As is usually the case when someone takes the chance and reaches out, everyone wins.

Whenever we hold on to our anger, we turn “small stuff(问题)” into really “big stuff” in our minds. We start to believe that our positions are more important than our happiness. They are not. If you want to be a more peaceful person you must understand that being right is almost never more important than allowing yourself to be happy. The way to be happy is to let go, and reach out. Let other people be right. This doesn't mean that you're wrong. Everything will be fine. You'll experience the peace of letting go, as well as the joy of letting others be right.

You'll also notice that, as you reach out and let others be “right，” they will become less defensive and more loving toward you. They might even reach back. But, if for some reason they don't, that's okay too. You'll have the inner satisfaction of knowing that you have done your part to create a more loving world, and certainly you'll be more peaceful yourself.

【1】The underlined word “rekindle” in Paragraph 1 probably means “________”．

A. recover B. develop

C. accept D. replace

【2】In the author's opinion, we hold on to our anger often because we think ________.

A. we can turn small issues into big ones

D. others will be less defensive

【3】The best thing to do after a quarrel is to ______.

A. let go of our own rights

C. expect others to give in

D. apologize to others first
