Love Creates Power

　　I don’t know how many good teachers there are in the world, but I feel it is deeply important for a student who is in trouble to meet a good teacher．

　　I had a math teacher who hates to see struggling math students．He always ridicules the slow students when he gets a chance．For example, the teacher looks down upon a student due to her failure in math．It’s not that this student is stupid but rather she has no interest in math．The math teacher always gives the girl the cold shoulder and says this girl is the stupidest student he has ever seen．One time this student got the lowest score on a math exam, the teacher made fun of her and then let other students guess who had the worst score．When that student had some questions to ask the teacher, he was impatient with her．

　　Finally, the girl said to me that paradise is very far from her．Every day she feels Eden, but there is no way to reach it．She feels that she is a tiny lantern which is placed into the water and will slowly drift out to sea until it can’t be seen．What a lonely vision that is!

　　All students have different abilities because each of them is unique．No one can foretell(预示)their future．The teachers should learn how to treat the slower students properly, how to encourage them and not to hurt their feelings．Please leave a bit of love for these special students．

　　“It is not how much we do, but how much love we put in the doing．It is not how much we give, but how much love we put in the giving,”said Mother Terasa．After all, love can create power．

(A)
What makes a house a home? A home is a place of companionship with people in it who love each other, who are harmonious (和谐的) and closer with one another than with those in the workplace or with classmates at school. A home is a place that’s so magnetic（有吸引力的） that it’s difficult to leave. In a home there is love, sharing and appreciation, and the members help one another.
I have seen families on the street. But if they live, sleep, talk, and eat together, they are a family, even if they are poorly off. You don’t need a roof to make a home. The truly homeless are some of the rich people who build multi-million-dollar houses and are too busy to really live in them. The truly homeless are those who have turned their home into a hotel lobby. The parents work and the children misbehave. They don’t talk and eat together every day. They rarely see each other. The truly homeless people are those with babysitters, caretakers, gardeners and maids. However, people are unaware of this, as they are too busy making money outside the home that they don’t live in. This is another way of looking at the rich and the homeless. Who is to be pitied?
Control of the computer and the Internet is also important to make a house into a home. If the computer is on all the time, the house turns into an office, even if everyone is at home. Many homes these days are just offices. Human communication has stopped. The computer eats up all the time that one should be giving to others within the home. Using the computer moderately gives us time for play and communication, not with a screen, but with other people.
56. Which of the following may serve as the best title for this passage?
A. How to make a house a home?

D. tell us how to have a happy home
58. The underlined word “those” refers to ________.
A. people who build multi-million-dollar houses
B. people who have lost their family members
C. people who don’t spend time with the family
D. homeless families living on the street in America
59. Which of the following is FALSE according to the passage?
A. A home is a place where you are willing to stay.

A
Recently I gave my adult students homework. It was “go to someone you love and tell them you love them.” It has to be someone you have never said those words to before or at least haven’t shared those words with for a long time.
It sounds like very tough homework since most of the men were over 35 and were raised in the generation of men that were taught expressing emotions is not “macho(阳刚之气).” Showing feelings or crying was just not done. So this was very threatening homework for some.
At the beginning of our next class, I asked if someone wanted to share what happened when they told someone they loved them. I fully expected one of the women to volunteer, as was usually the case, but on this evening one of the men raised his hand, quite moved and a bit shaken.
As he unfolded out of his chair (all 1.85 meters of him), he began by saying, “Dennis, I was quite angry with you last week when you gave us this homework . Why were you to tell me to do something that personal?”
“But as I began driving home my conscience(良心)started telling me that I knew exactly who I needed to say ‘I love you’ to.”
“Five years ago, my father and I had a severe disagreement and really never settled it since then. We avoided seeing each other unless we absolutely had to at Christmas or other family gatherings. But even then, we hardly spoke to each other.”
“So last Tuesday by the time I got home I had convinced myself I was going to tell my father I loved him. It’s strange, but just making that decision seemed to lift a heavy load off my chest.”
56.The homework is threatening for some students because         .
A. they are middle-aged people     B. they are not macho enough
C. they were taught to hide their emotions   D. they didn’t know how to show feelings
57.From the passage we know that________.
A. the adult students have classes in the day time only
B. not all the adult students in the writer’s class are male
C. the man refused to meet his father after their quarrel
D. the man quickly decided to say “I love you” to his father
58.The underlined phrase “unfolded out of his chair” in Para 4 is closest in meaning to_______.
A. stood on his chair straight B. sat quietly in the chair
C. bent himself over his chair       D. raised himself slowly from the chair
59.What does the man imply by saying the underlined sentence in the last paragraph?
A. He felt it too strange to say “I love you” to his father.
B. He felt relaxed just thinking of saying “I love you” to his father.
C. He felt very relaxed after saying “I love you” to his father.
D. He had to lift a heavy load off his chest before saying “I love you”.
60. .Which do you think can be the best title of the passage?
A. Special homework for adults.             B. Saying “I love you” is not mancho.
C. Disagreement between father and son .     D. It is easy for adults to express their love.

You’ve no doubt heard people say how much they “need” a holiday，when what they really mean is that they want one．Certainly，people working under pressure feel a very strong desire to escape from work and become less tight during their holidays，and experience a changed environment．
Once people become used to going on holiday，taking holidays becomes a habit．For many people the holiday is one of the last things to be given up，and indeed many workers have chosen to spend some of their last pay when being on holiday．It may give them a “lift” in facing some difficulties in life．
Most of us also enjoy showing off the lovely tans—dark skins we get from a holiday．So many tourists are now able to afford holidays in the sun that tans have become quite common；although we join a tan together with health，it has been fully shown that too much sunshine will result in high danger of skin problems，as well as drying out one’s skin and leading to more lines on your face later in life．

   “Can I see my baby?” asked the happy new mother. The bundle (婴儿包) was placed in her arms and when she moved the fold of cloth to look upon his tiny face, she gasped--the baby had been born without ears. Time, however, proved that the baby’s hearing was perfect except his appearance．

One day when he rushed home from school and threw himself into his mother’s arms, he cried out bitterly，“A boy, a big boy…called me－a f... freak.” She sighed, knowing that his life was to be endless of heartbreaks．

He grew up，handsome for his misfortune．A favorite with his fellow students, he might have been class president, but for that．He developed a gift for literature and music．

The boy’s father had a talk with the family doctor．Could nothing be done? “I believe we could graft (移植) on a pair of outer ears，if they could be donated (捐献) ,” the doctor decided．So the search began for a person who would make such a sacrifice (牺牲) for a young man．Two years went by．Then, “You’re going to the hospital，son．Mother and I have someone who will donate the ears you need．But it’s a secret.” said the father．

        The operation was a brilliant success．His talents blossomed into genius．School and college became a series of successes．Later he married and entered the diplomatic (外交) service．“But I must know!” he urged his father．“Who gave so much for me? I could never do enough for him.”

“I do not believe you could,” said the father，“but the agreement was that you are not to know…not yet.” The years kept the secret, but the day did come...one of the darkest days that ever passed through a son．He stood with his father over his mother’s casket(棺材)．Slowly and tenderly，the father stretched forth a hand and raised the thick，reddish-brown hair to let out the secret．

C. True beauty lies only in the heart not in appearance.
