摘要: A. hit B. chance C. search D.gathering A California-- Upset by the war in Iraq, Julia Wilson expressed her anger and impatience with President Bush last spring on her web page on MySpaee. com. She posted a picture of the president, wrote "Kill Bush'across the top and drew a sword stabbing his outstretched hand. She later replaced her page after learning in her eighth-grede history class that such threats are a federal offense. It was too late. Federal authorities had found the page and placed Wilson on their checklist. They finally reached her this week in her biology class. The 14-year-old was taken out of class Wednesday and questioned for about 15 minutes by two Secret Service agents. The incident has upset her parents, who said the agents should have included them when questioning their daughter. The teenager said the agents' questioning led her to tears. "I wasn't dangerous," said Wilson, an honor student who describes herself as politically enthusiastic. "I'm a peace-loving person. I'm against the war in Iraq. I'm not going to kill the president." Her mother, Kirstie Wilson, said two agents showed up at the family's home Wednesday afternoon, questioned her and promised to return once her daughter was home from school. After they left, Kirstie Wilson sent a text message to her daughter's cell phone, asking her to come straight home and telling her that two men from the secret service wanted to talk with her. But moments later, Kirsfie Wilson received a text message from her daughter saying agents had pulled her out of class. Julia Wilson said the agents threatened her, saying she could be sent to court for making the threat. "They yelled at me a lot," she said. "They were unnecessarily mean." Wilson and her parents said the agents were justified in questioning her over her MySpace. eom posting. But they said the agents went too far by not waiting until she was out of school and the agents should have more quickly figured out they weren't dealing with a real danger. Assistant Principal Paul Robinon said the agents gave him the impression the girl's mother knew they were planning to question her daughter at school. There is no legal requirement that parents be notified. "This has been an on-going problem," said Ann Brick, a lawyer with the American Civil Liberties Union in San Francisco. Former governors Pete Wilson and Gray Davis vetoed bills that would have required that parents give pemaission or be present when their children are questioned at schoul by law enforcement officers,

When an earthquake hit a small town,many houses fell down.After the earthquake,all the newspapers reported many stories about some of the families who were in trouble.

One Sunday,when I was reading a newspaper,a special picture touched me.It gave the clothing sizes of each family member.I thought that this would be a good chance to teach my children to help those who were less lucky than themselves.I said to my seven?year?old twins,Brad and Brett,and three?year?old Meghan,“We have so much,and these poor people now have nothing.We’ll share what we have with them.”

I filled a box with foods and clothes.While I was doing this,I encouraged the boys to choose their toys and donate some of their less favourite things.Meghan watched quietly as the boys took out their old toys and games and put them together.Then she walked away.A few minutes later she came back with Lucy,her much?loved doll.She put the doll on top of the other toys.“Oh,dear,”I said.“You don’t have to give Lucy.You love her so much.”Meghan said,“Lucy makes me happy,Mommy.Maybe she’ll make another little girl happy, too.”

I looked at Meghan for a long moment.She taught me a lesson.It’s easy to give something that we don’t want any more,but hard to give what we cherish(珍爱),isn’t it?

  All kinds of people come in to have their shoes shined.Most of them are friendly.But this man was different.

  “How much do you make a week, boy?” he asked me.I felt he was   1   at me.

  He kept taking a sharp   2   around every now and then.All the time I kept   3   where I’d seen his face.Suddenly I knew I’d seen his   4   in the post office many times.He was a big robber:  5   by the police in three states!

  “You know,”he was saying,“it’s imagination people lack.You’ll never get   6   as a shoeshine boy.”

  I kept brushing away at his shoes as   7   as I could.The sooner I finished the better.He said,“When I was sixteen, I had   8   $2500 of my own.”

  That reminded me of something.Was it $2500 or $5000 or $25 000?I wasn’t   9  .I knew a big reward was   10   for him.What could I do about it?  11   him with a can of shoe polish?A man has   12   could grind(碾碎)me into the floor.If only someone would come in!

  He kept talking away,“Along with   13  , it takes courage.The courage to take a chance.Start something on a shoestring.”

  Suddenly I saw Officer Dailey   14   across the street.Then, real fast, I began tightening the man’s shoestrings.

  The policeman was at the window when I cried out,“Officer Dailey,   15  !This man’s a robber.”

  “  16  ,” the man shouted angrily.He started to jump off the stand.It didn’t go the   17   he planned.He fell flat on his face and knocked himself out cold.

  “That was pretty   18   of you,” the officer said.“You’ll get a reward of $7500 for him.”

  “Well, it really wasn’t my   19  ,” I said.“It was his.He told me if you had courage and imagination you could start something   20   on a shoestring.”
