“No, no, no, dear, I want that wrapped in red paper.” A middle-aged woman came through my line and talked to me as if my IQ were that of a grade school kid. When I first started working, it was simply a way to decrease (减少) the time I spent at home and make my parents happy. I never thought that a year and a half later, I would still be at Marshalls, waiting for this woman to get through my line.

I smiled and said, “Oh, that’s no problem.” She bent over the counter to look at the computer and made sure I was doing my job correctly. Her sweater grazed my hand and she smiled like she meant well. I wanted to roll my eyes but instead I just smiled. Ever since I started working here, I’ve tried not to let people like her get to me. And forget judging a book by its cover, because I have been proved wrong time and time again. The wealthy middle-aged women were far ruder than the teenage boys. At first, I was constantly surprised. Now, I tried not to even guess how the person coming near my line was going to act, because it was never the way I imagine.

I never expected people to be so rude and at the same time nice. But for every rude person I saw, at least five pleasant customers came through my line.

“Here you go,” I handed the woman her receipt and hoped her $5 wine glass was wrapped to her liking. “Have a nice day!” I said. And just as I thought I was fed up, the next customer came through. “She had about one more minute and I was going to tell her to get out of line,” she whispered (小声说) to me with a smile.

1.Why did the writer work at Marshalls?

A. To have more time to go out.

B. To make money for the family.

C. To find a way to be happy.

D. To improve her IQ on doing business.

2.What surprised the writer in her work at first?

A. The rich customers behaved themselves well.

B. The young boys could be both rude and nice.

C. Some rich women customers were more impolite.

D. Wealthy women are pleasant customers.

3.It can be inferred that the middle-aged woman .

A. admired the writer for the good service

B. was a customer easy to deal with

C. had patience to do the shopping

D. cared much about the wrapping of goods

4.What the next customer said implied that .

A. she was angry with the middle-aged woman

B. she couldn’t wait one more minute in line

C. she would drive the middle-aged woman away

D. she might get out of the line for a while

What is Christmas all about? Has it ever crossed your mind? Are we teaching our children the true meaning of Christmas? Do they know that a single gift of kindness can touch an endless number of hearts forever?

We met a little girl seven years ago during one of my daughter’s occasional hospital stays. Her name was Beth and she was my daughter’s roommate for a week. My daughter had an incurable kidney disease. Beth was a very happy girl, despite the fact that she had cancer. I was amazed at her will and determination to never give up, however sick her treatment made her. She was always concerned about my daughter and the other children with cancer.

My daughter’s hospital treatment was completed in a week and we were waiting for her final discharge orders when Beth appeared. She said “I want you to have this. I know you need a new kidney, so keep this angel pin with you till you get better. She will watch over you and make you smile. My friend, John, gave it to me to watch over me. When you get your new kidney and smile, you can give this angel to someone that needs her, too”. My daughter thanked her and the girls exchanged hugs and big smiles. Later that year, Beth passed away.

We kept that angel for six more years. My daughter had gone beyond what medical journals had studied and expected from her disease. Finally, a kidney became available and she received a transplant.

Now she felt it was time to give it to someone who needed to be watched over until he or she could smile again. She gave it to an elderly man trying to recover from a heart problem.

How many families and hearts this angel has touched, no one knows for sure. But all that it took was a single gift of kindness. So in this Christmas season, create a tradition with your children or maybe someone you love. Give them a gift that keeps on giving. It’s a gift from your heart. After all, isn’t that Christmas is all about?

Students who date (约会) in middle school have significantly worse study skills, are four times more likely to drop out of school and report twice as much alcohol and tobacco use than their single classmates, according to new research from the University of Georgia.

“Romantic relationships are a symbol of adolescence（青春期）, but very few studies have examined how adolescents are different in the development of these relationships.” said Pamela Orpinas, study author and professor in the College of Public Health.

Orpinas followed a group of 624 students over a seven-year period from 6th to 12th grade. Each year, the group of students completed a survey indicating whether they had dated and reported the frequency of different behaviors, including the use of drugs and alcohol. Their teachers completed questionnaires (调查表) about the students' academic efforts. He found some students never or hardly ever reported dating from middle to high school, and these students had the best study skills according to their teachers. Other students dated infrequently in middle school but increased the frequency of dating in high school.

“At all points in time, teachers rated the students who reported the lowest frequency of dating as having the best study skills and the students with the highest dating as having the worst study skills,” according to the journal article. Study skills refer to behaviors that lead to academic success such as doing work for extra credit, being well organized, finishing homework, working hard and reading assigned chapters.

“Dating a classmate may have the same emotional complications of dating a co-worker,” Orpinas said, “When the couple break up, they have to continue to see each other in class and perhaps witness the ex-partner dating someone else. It is reasonable to think this could be linked to depression and divert (转移) attention from studying.”

“Dating should not be considered a ceremony of growth in middle school.”Orpinas concluded.

1.According to the passage, students who date in middle school may_____.

A. have poorer academic performances

B.be more likely to hurt others

C. enjoy better school lives

D. are less likely to use alcohol and tobacco

2.When doing his study, Orpinas _____.

A. followed a group of students of 6th and 12th grade

B. found that the students' study skills have connection with their frequency of dating

C. completed questionnaires about the students' academic efforts

D. completed a survey and a report each year

3.What can possibly happen to the school couples after they break up?

A. They will miss their ex-partners sometimes.

B. They don't want to see each other any longer.

C. Their attention to studying will be affected.

D. They will think it's reasonable to get depressed.

4.Orpinas’ attitude towards dating in middle school is _____.

A. supportive B. negative

C. indifferent D. positive

How to improve my life? Many people think that they have to accept whatever life throws at them. They'll say, "This is my fate, my destiny. I cannot change it."

Of course not! You don't have to suffer needlessly. Your destiny depends on you, not on any other external factors.

I know someone who says she just accepts what life gives her because she has done everything she can to improve it. Guess what her lifestyle is? She wakes up in the morning, goes to work, comes back home, relaxes, chats with people, watches TV, then goes to sleep. Next day, the same routine cycle follows.

Huh! Is this what she calls "doing her best"? She believes she has tried her best and just accepts it in her heart that this is the life that God has intended for her to live; that her luck can only change if God wills it. Of course God wants us to be happy and live our life to the fullest, but we have to do our share of exerting (运用) the effort to live the life of our dreams.

Remember that you harvest what you sow. You just don't sit around and wait for a million dollars to fall from the sky. You have to get off the couch, get your eyes off the TV screen, get your hands off the phone. Don’t expect your luck to change unless you do something about it. If something goes wrong, don't just regard it as a temporary setback; but use it as feedback. Learn your lesson, make the most of the situation, and do something to solve the problem. It's not enough to think positively; you also have to act positively.

If someone's life is in the trouble, do you just hope and pray that things will turn out fine? Of course not! You get to do anything you can to save the person. So it is with your own life. It is not enough to hope for the best, but you have to do your best. In other words, don't just stand (or sit) there, do something to improve your life.

1.According to the woman mentioned in Para.3, her life ____________.

A. Doesn't need improving

B. couldn't be improved

C. will be better some day

D. Will be worse in the future

2.What does the author think of the woman's life?

A. positive B. satisfying

C. colorful D. passive

3.Which of the following statements is the author's opinion?

A. Your temporary problem is not discouraging.

B. Your luck can be changed by your efforts

C . You can only achieve success when God wills it.

D. You should treat yourself in the way you treat friends.

4.In Para.5, the author emphasized the importance of _____________.

A. positive action B. positive thinking

C. hope for the best D. intention to succeed

5.The text is mainly written to advise you to ____________.

A. understand yourself B. improve your life

C. believe in yourself D. change your normal way
