I always think my spoken English is so poor that I can’t communicate with
native English speakers well. So after going to the college, I take as  36 English lessons as I can. 37  I am free, I go to English corners and  38  English lessons and lectures. To my surprise, I can understand most of  39 of the professors who come from Canada, and the USA. However, I haven’t had more  40  to talk to them in English.
Although I  41  English articles out aloud every day, I am not sure if I can make myself  42  by native English speakers. How I hope I can talk to  43  English speakers for  a while. I went to the English  44  as usual last night. Surprisingly, there were three foreigners sitting there. There , however, were several Chinese students around them, too. “I must not  45  this chance,” I said to myself.
“Hi, nice to meet you.” I  46  to one of them.
“Nice to meet you too.” He put out his hand. We  47  hands, what a warm hand! Then I  48 myself to him. When I told him that I had  49  English by myself for three years, he said that it was  50  and my English was so good. His words gave me a lot of 51  . At that time he hadn’t had dinner. He asked us if it was rude or 52  to talk to us while he was eating (a)  53  . We, said we didn’t 54  that, only
if he was  55  to talk to us. He smiled and began to eat his supper.

Having lived in the house for so long, we found our kitchen looked old. We decided it was time to   1   the kitchen, and my husband and I were discussing   2   colors. The children, sitting nearby, suddenly all spoke together: “Not the measuring stick.”
“No,” I   3   them. “Not the measuring stick..”
The measuring stick isn’t a (an)   4   stick but the kitchen side of the door between our kitchen and dining room. Along the edge we’ve   5    each child’s growth by making a mark showing his or her   6   on every birthday. Over the years so many colored pens, pencils and markers have been used, that now, this white door is somewhat like an abstract painting.
Names and dates show different    7  , and I can tell by the script(手迹) who measured whom. An eight-year-old measured her three-year-old sister, a grandchild measured her grandmother, my husband measured me. At the parties, when this door   8   back and forth frequently, friends stop to   9   the names and dates. When we ask if they would like to be always remembered, they usually smile   10   and go back right up into place,   11   to be measured.
Many of those listed on the door are still  12  ; some have stopped. Some remain with us only in   13 . When my mother came to see my eldest daughter graduate from university, we measured her too. It was her last visit to our home.
We haven’t  14   the new kitchen color plan yet, but one thing is certain: whatever color we choose, the back of the kitchen door will always remain   15  , with lots of names and dates in various colors.

College was the best of times and the worst of times for me. I met the best friends of my life, had    21   experiences, but I also folded under more   22   than I ever had to deal with before.     23   bad grades, I ended up being asked to take a semester off at the end of the first semester of my senior year.
So I went back home to   24  with my father and stepmother. To their credit, they understood me and were very cool about my coming back. I felt their    25   from the moment I walked in the door. They   26   to let me feel like a failure.
One morning not long after I had come home, my father woke me up saying that my stepmother   27  on the kitchen floor. I went downstairs trying to perform CPR on her   28   it was too late. She was already dead of a massive heart attack.
I’ll never   29  the look on my father’s face when he was given the official news of her passing. I knew at that moment that I had to be   30  because he needed someone to lean on. It was as if our roles had    31  and I was being the protective parent while he took the time to   32   .
I guess the lesson I took from it is that even in our   33   moments we can still be of help to someone who is   34   something much harder. It’s so easy to close ourselves off to the things going on around us, and   35  feel that we are the only ones   36  . Helping someone else could actually help us   37  ourselves.
Needlessly to say I went back to college the next semester, and I studied harder and got my    38    . My father and I developed a bond that was    39   closer than it already was, and I have a much better ability to keep   40  times in perspective.（适当地）

The wise man  29 ，“When they love each other even more, they do not  30 ， but only whisper and they get even closer to each other. Finally they 31  need not whisper. They only look at each other and that's  32 . That is how close two people are when they love each other.”
He looked at his disciples and said, “So when you  33 ， do not let your hearts get distant. Do not say words that distance each other more.  34  there will come a day when the distance is so great that you'll not find the path to  35 . You may end up becoming enemies, for instance.”

For the past two years, 8－year－old Harli Jordean from Stoke Newington, London, has been selling marbles(弹珠)．His successful marble company, Marble King, sells all things marble-related—from affordable tubs of the glass playthings to significantly expensive items like Duke of York solitaire（独粒宝石）tables—sourced, purchased and processed by the mini－CEO himself.
“I like having my own company. I like being the boss,” Harli told The Mirror.
With profits now in the thousands, “the world's youngest CEO” has had to get his mother and older brothers to help him meet the growing demand.
Harli launched Marble King after swapping（交换）marbles at school led to schoolchildren depleting(削减) his marble collection. Yes, he literally（确切地）“lost his marbles.” Harli and his mother, Tina, turned to the Internet to find replacements.
Harli saw an empty space online: the marbles he wanted were hard to find. Within months, Harli had his own marble－selling website and orders started pouring in.
Tina says her son's obsession(迷恋) with marbles started when he was just 6.
“His obsession became so big we started calling him the Marble King, so when he wanted to set up a website it was the natural name for it，” she told The Sun.
“I never thought it would become so popular—we are struggling to cope with the number of orders at times.”
The 8－year－old boy has his sights set on expanding his business and launching his own brand of marbles.
“Sometimes his ideas are so grand we have to scale them back a bit. But his dream is still to own Britain's biggest marble shop and open stores around the world.” Tina told The Daily Mail.
“At the minute he is annoying me by asking about creating his won Marble King marbles, so that could well be the next step for him.”
小题1:Why did Harli's marble company become popular as soon as he launched it?
A．Because it was run by “the world's youngest CEO”．
B．Because it filled the gaps of marble business.
C．Because Harli was fascinated with marble collection.
D．Because his mother and brothers helped him a lot.
小题2:How many mass media are mentioned in the passage?
A．One.B．Two.C．Three.D．Four.
小题3:Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined expression “scale back”？
A．make smallerB．carry outC．turn downD．frighten away
小题4:What message do the last two paragraphs carry?
A．Conflicts often occur between Harli Jordean and his family.
B．Harli's mother and brothers are worried about Marble King's future.
C．Marble King marbles will be more popular with marble fans around the world.
D．The “Marble King” has great ambitions for his Marble King Company.

When Mrs．Joseph Groeger died recently in Vienna，Austria，people asked the obvious question,“Why did she live to be 107?” .Answers were provided by a survey conducted among 148 Viennese men and women who had reached the age of 100．Somewhat surprising was the fact that the majority had lived most of their lives in cities．In spite of the city’s image as an unhealthy place，city living often provides benefits that country living can lack．One factor seems to be important to the longevity(长寿)of those interviewed．
This factor is exercise．In the cities it is often faster to walk short distances than to wait for a bus．Even taking public transportation often requires some walking．Smaller apartment houses have no elevators(电梯)，and so people must climb stairs．City people can usually walk to local supermarkets.  Since parking spaces are hard to find，there is often no alternative to walking．
On the other hand，those who live in the country and suburbs do not have to walk every day．In fact，the opposite is often true．To go to school，work，or almost anywhere else，they must ride in cars．

A．the complaints of people in apartment houses
