Ricky didn’t help much around the house, so his parents bought him a butler (管家) robot. As soon as it arrived, off it went, cooking, cleaning, and   36  dirty clothes from Ricky’s bedroom   37  . On that first day, when Ricky went to sleep, he had left his bedroom in a   38  . When he woke up the next morning,   39  was perfectly clean and tidy.
But now Ricky couldn’t   40  his favorite T-shirt, nor his favorite toy. However much he searched, the two items didn’t   41  , and the same was starting to happen with other things.   42  the butler robot, Ricky thought of a plan to   43  on it, and finally caught it red-handed (正在作案的), picking up one of his toys to  “ 44 ”  it.
He told his parents that the butler was   45  and asked them to have it   46 . But his parents didn’t believe him at all for they were   47  with the butler for its good service. Ricky kept on telling them how much good stuff the butler was hiding, until one day the butler heard the boy’s   48.  Then it returned some of the boy’s toys and clothes to him.
“Here, sir. I did not know it was   49  you,” said the butler.
“How could it not, you thief?! You’ve been stealing my stuff for weeks!” the boy answered  50.     “The objects were left on the floor;  51  I thought that you did not like them. I am programmed to collect all that is not   52  , and at night I send them to those who can use them. I’m a highly efficient machine,” the bulter said.
Ricky started feeling   53  . Since then, Ricky decided to put real  54  into how he treated his things. He also often bought things and took them to help out those who are  55  -- along with his good friend, the butler of course.

We can slow down aging. That is the message Dr. Shen Ziyin wants to give the world. And the Chinese doctor claims that he has found an answer to the problems of aging. His solution is a herbal medicine(草药)to slow the process of aging.
Dr. Shen Ziyin has been trained in Western medicine. At the same time he studied traditional Chinese medicine. And, he has been working for the past forty years to put together the best of both and find a cure for aging. He has taken a hint from the ancient Chinese medicine system called “Shen”.
According to Shen, it is the kidney(肾脏)which adjusts the functioning of the body as well as its aging process. It is responsible for the level of activity that the human bodies go through. Studies conducted by Dr. Shen show that herbal medicine based on the Shen system slows the aging process, says a report in the Telegraph newspaper. We notice that when people grow old, they have reduced strength, loss of hair, backache, weakness, wrinkles and so on. This happens because when people grow old, their bodies produce T-cells. These T-cells contain a particular substance(物质)called Fas. Fas makes the cells in the body destruct themselves.
So the only way to slow down aging is to slow the production of T-cells in the body. This can happen if people eat low calorie food. Then the body is not active enough to produce extra T-cells. But, is going hungry all the time a good price to pay for staying young? This is where Dr. Shen’s herbal medicine comes in. But how effective it will be, only time can tell.
【小题1】 How did Dr. Shen find the solution to the problem of aging?

A.By studying Western medicine.
B.By learning traditional Chinese medicine.
C.By combining both Western and Chinese medicine.
D.By doing research on both Western and Chinese people.
【小题2】What plays the most important role in keeping people young according to Shen?
A.Medical treatment.
B.People’s good kidney
C.Positive life attitude.
D.Level of people’s activity.
【小题3】The reason why people become old is that_____.
A.their bodies produce T-cells
B.they become weaker and weaker
C.they have reduced strength, loss of hair
D.their bodies are unable to fight diseases
【小题4】 We can probably learn from the passage that______.
A.producing more low calorie food allows people to keep young
B.the more Chinese herbal medicine people drink, the better for health
C.people should try to quicken the production of T-cells in the body
D.it remains unknown how effective Dr. Shen’s herbal medicine is

I walked into the grocery store not particularly interested in buying something. The sorrow of   36  my husband of 37 years was still too painful. And this grocery store held so many sweet   37 . Bob often came with me and almost every time he'd   38  to go off and look for something special. I'd always see him walking down the walkway   39  the three yellow roses in his hands. Bob knew I loved yellow roses. With a heart   40  with pain, I came to the meat shelf, I searched for the   41  small steak and remembered how Bob had loved his steak.

Suddenly a woman came beside me. She was in a soft green dress. I   42  as she picked up a large pack of T-bones,   43  them in her basket, hesitated, and then put them back. She saw me watching her and she smiled. "My husband loves T-bones, but   44 , at these prices, I don't know."

"My husband passed away eight days ago," I told her. "Buy him the steaks. And value every   45  you have together."

She smiled and I saw the feeling in her   46  as she placed the package in her basket and   47  away. I turned and pushed my cart forward too. Several minutes later I saw first the green suit and then   48  the pretty lady coming to me. In her arms she carried something. On her face was the   49  smile I had ever seen.

As she came closer, I saw what she held and   50  welled down. "These are for you, " she said and placed three beautiful yellow roses in my arms. She placed a gentle kiss on my cheek, then smiled again. I wanted to tell her what the roses   51 , but still unable to speak. I watched as she walked away as tears clouded my   52 . I looked down at the beautiful roses and found it almost   53 . How did she know?

Suddenly the   54  seemed so clear. I wasn't alone. "Oh, Bob, you haven't   55  me, have you?" I whispered, with tears in my eyes. He was still with me, and she was his angel.
