| The inspector (检查员) of Schools arrived yesterday morning, and he 1 the whole day examining the classes. The headmaster had told us a few days 2 that he was coming. I thought the headmaster was very nervous 3 it, for every day, he came to all the classes, 4 the teachers over and over again what they must do and examined the boys himself to see whether they were 5 for the inspection. He told us in our 6 that we were all fools and would be sure to 7 him lose face before the Inspector. All 8 made us very nervous; and when the Inspector wandered into our class, we were all 9 with fright. I felt all that I 10 knew had been clean forgotten. The Inspector was a tall man. He wore glasses and always 11 very strict. He kept examining the class in English and I was asked to read. I felt very 12 but somehow I managed to get through without any mistakes. Some of the other boys, 13 did not do well and the Inspector looked even more serious than usual, though he did not say 14 . We got along better with History and Geography; but when it came to Maths, he set us to some very 15 problems which we 16 to do; so he looked very black at our teacher. Our teacher was very 17 with us afterwards; but I am sure we should have done 18 if we had not been so 19 . I think I should like to be an inspector when I 20 up. Then everyone would have to be afraid of me! | ||||

I lived a hard life when I was little．I was abused（虐待）physically and mentally．Life as an adult was not better with a broken marriage．I tried to kill myself．But thankfully I was rescued by a teacher，and thanks to the help of the teacher，I rebuilt my life．
Today I am a reborn person，as founder of a home here in Sabah，Malaysia，and a general social worker and social activist．At the age of 38，I left for Camphill，Aberdeen，Scotland，where I graduated as a medical educationist and a guidance doctor．When I was asked which university I graduated from before going to Camphill，my answer was the “University of Life”．I am now 61 years old and still active in my services for the needy．
My friends，never ever have low opinions of anyone and always be careful of negative words that can destroy a person's life．I was laughed at being a mixed breed，and I was told that I was a hopeless child，with no brains，yet today I am a public figure，often sought for by various press media for my advice on various social problems．
For those who are going through some troubles in their life，never give up hope，because every event that happens in our life，whether it is good or horrible，teaches a lesson，from which we can learn something positive．Help from friends makes us useful people．I hope my life story will touch someone in need of help．If l can make it，you too can，even better than me．

第三部分:阅读理解（共20小题;每小题2分, 满分40分）
阅读下列短文，从每篇短文后所给各题的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
Mr. Whitson taught sixth-grade science. On the first day of class, he gave us a lecture about an animal called the Cattywampus, a nocturnal (夜间活动的) animal that was wiped out during the Ice Age. He passed around a skull as he talked. We all took notes and later had a quiz.
When he returned my paper, I was shocked. There was a big red “X” through each of my answers. There had to be some mistakes! I had written down exactly what Mr. Whitson said. Then I realized that everyone in the class had failed. What had happened? Very simple, Mr. Whitson explained. He had made up all that story about the Cattywampus. The information in our notes was, therefore, incorrect. Did we expect credit for incorrect answers? Needless to say, we were outraged. What kind of text was this? And what kind of teacher is he?
We should have figured it out, Mr. Whitson said. After all, at the very moment he was passing around the Cattywampus skull (in truth, a cat’s), hadn’t he been telling us that no trace of the animal remained? He had described its amazing night vision, the color of its fur and any number of other facts he couldn’t have known, he had given the animal a ridiculous name, and we still hadn’t been suspicious. The zeroes on our papers would be recorded in his grade book, he said. And they were. Mr. Whitson said he hoped we would learn something from this experience. He told us not to let our minds go to sleep, and to speak up if we ever thought he or the textbook was wrong.
We carded our new skepticism (怀疑主义) into all our classes. This caused problems for the other teachers, who weren’t used to being challenged. Our history teacher would be lecturing about something, and then there would be clearings of the throat and someone would say “Cattywampus”.
If I’m ever asked to propose a solution to the crisis in our schools, it will be Mr. Whitson. I haven’t made any great scientific discoveries, but Mr. Whitson’s class gave me and my classmates something just as important: the courage to look people in the eye and tell them they are wrong. He also showed us that you can have fun doing it.
51．The best title for this passage would probably be _______.
A. Cattywampus
B. An interesting and unforgettable Lesson
C. A new teaching method
D. The Best Teacher I Ever Had
52．The underlined word outraged in the second paragraph here means _______.
A. angry B. excited C. disappointed D. discouraged
53．From this passage, we know that Mr. Whitson was a teacher _______.
A. difficult to get along with B. creative in teaching
C. fond of being challenged D. full of energy and enthusiasm
54．We can infer from the passage that _______.
A. teachers and textbooks are not always right
B. Cattywampus could be found in the Ice Age
C. the history teacher didn’t like to be challenged
D. Mr. Whitson always made a bad impression on his students

We don't have to wait for a special day to thank the ones closest to us-the ones so easily overlooked. If I have learned anything about giving 1 , it is this: Give it now. While your feeling of appreciation is 2 and sincere, act on it. Saying thanks is such an easy way to 3 the world's happiness.

I recently returned home to Montpelier, Ohio, for a short visit. 10 of my boyhood flooded back as I walked the familiar streets, and my mind 11 back to high school.
I was a freshman, more interested in sports than schoolwork, and I was 12 in my Latin class. Then Violet Bible, a neighbor who was a schoolteacher, found my 13 . She helped me master it. At the age of 14, it seemed perfectly 14 to me that a working 15 and mother had nothing better to do after a hard day's work than help me with Latin.
Now as I saw her, I realized how much I 16 her. And, after all those years, I 17 her so! “What you did was 18 the call of duty, ” I said, “Thank you.” I was 19 with a surprised 20 and a sparkle in her eyes.
