            • 1． Three-year-old Teddy Lasry was sleeping in his cowboy outfit（套装）yesterday at his family’s Fifth Ave．apartment when he shot up in bed screaming．A 3-foot-long black-and-white snake twisted around his left arm and had just bitten his little finger，
              “The babysitter was frightened to death．”said Teddy’s father David Lasry，who，along with his wife，Evelyn，was at work when the snake appeared about 4：00 pm．
              The horrified babysitter called 911and the building’s doorman．The doorman and two cable TV workers helped take the snake off the boy’S arm and put it in a garbage bag．Police rushed Teddy to Mount Sinai Medical Center，where he spent two hours attached to a heart monitor as a precaution in case the snake was poisonous．It wasn’t．Experts at the snakebite treatment center at Jacobi Medical Center in the Bronx，where policemen took the snake，found out it Was a non-poisonous California king snake．
              But how did it end up in Teddy’s bed？
              A little detective work determined that the snake had escaped two weeks ago from its cage in the apartment of a doctor whose family lives four floors below the Lasrys．The apologetic owner said his son’s pet snake likely traveled up the water pipes and into his neighbor’s apartment．“It’s a very gentle，very harmless snake，”he said：“It’s handled by our family all the time．”
              David Lasry believed the pet was simply hungry after two weeks of wandering．Evelyn said her son seems to have overcome his fright by thinking of himself as a hero cowboy as he rode in the back of the police car to the hospital．
              “I told Teddy he’s a pretty snake，a nice pet snake who got out of his cage．”Evelyn said．“But he asked，‘Why did he bite my finger，Mamma？’And I said，‘Because he saw that you are a big boy，Teddy，in your cowboy outfit and he got scared．’”

              21．What did the babysitter do after Teddy was bitten by a snake？    
              A．She ran out of the apartment．    
              B．She took the snake off Teddy’s arm．
              C．She called the TV company．
              D．She made an emergency call．
              22．We can learn from the passage that the snake    ．
              A．was kept in a cage by its owner    
              B．was poisonous
              C．was deserted by its owner    
              D．escaped to the apartment downstairs
              23．Which of the following is true？

              B．The snake had never bitten people before．
              C．Teddy’s mother was at home when the snake turned up．
              D．Teddy needed a heart machine to stay alive for two hours．
              24．Teddy probably believed he was attacked because    ．
              A．his parents weren’t at home    
              B．he was asleep

            • 2． Last year，around Labor Day，I read a“Happy Ad“in our local newspaper．There was a lady in a local nursing home，who was celebrating her 90th birthday and her family wanted everyone to know about it．It said that if you wanted to drop her a line，here was her address．So I did．I found a birthday card and dropped her a short note，wishing her a happy birthday．
              A week or so later，someone knocked at my front door．I opened the door and found a middle-aged man standing on my doorstep．He introduced himself as the son of this woman to whom I had sent the card．He explained that he just wanted to drop by in person and thank me for sending such a nice card to his mom．Apparently，like many older folks，she did not receive much mail and was quite excited to receive mine．I just didn't know what to say．I told him it was my pleasure and that I hoped his mom had enjoyed her birthday．
              That year，I did not send out any Christmas cards，except to this lovely old lady in the nursing home．I just told her that I was thinking about her and hoped that she had a nice holiday．I sent her a Valentine and also a couple of notes in between．I just thought she might like to have someone write to her，to get some mail．
              She passed away a couple of months ago．I never met this lady，but I did keep her and her family in my thoughts．I dropped them a line of sympathy．I hope that my few little notes were enough to brighten a couple of her days here on earth．

            • 3． It was Mother’s Day morning last year and I was doing my shopping at our local supermarket with my five-year-old son，Tenyson．As we were leaving，we found that only minutes earlier an elderly woman had fallen over at the entrance and had hit her head on the concrete．Her husband was with her，but there was blood everywhere and the woman was embarrassed and clearly in shock．
              Walking towards the scene，Tenyson became very upset about what had happened to the couple．He said to me，“Mum，it’s not much fun falling over in front of everyone．”
              At the front of the supermarket a charity（慈善） group had set up a stand selling cooked sausages and flowers to raise funds．Tenyson suggested that we should buy the lady a flower．“It will make her feel better，”he said．I was amazed that he’d come up with such a sweet idea．So we went over to the flower seller and asked her if we could buy a flower for the lady to cheer her up．“Just take it，”she replied．“I can’t take your money for such a wonderful gesture．”
              By now paramedics（救援人员）had arrived，and were attending the injured woman．As we walked up to her，my son became intimidated by all the blood and medical equipment．He said he was just too scared to go up to her．
              Instead I gave the flower to the woman’s husband and told him，“My son was very upset for your wife and wanted to give her this flower to make her feel better．”
              At that，the old man started crying and said，“Thank you so much，you have a wonderful son．Happy Mother’s Day to you．”
              The man then bent down and gave his wife the flower，telling her who it was from．Though badly hurt and shaken，the old lady looked up at Tenyson with love in her eyes and gave him a little smile．

              56．What dose the author intend to tell us？    
              A．One can never be too careful．
              B．Actions speak louder than words．
              C．Love begins with a little smile．
              D．A small act of kindness brings a great joy．
              57．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage？    
              A．The elderly woman was knocked down by Tenyson．
              B．Tenyson’s idea of buying a flower gained his father’s support．
              C．Tenyson’s care for the elderly woman puzzled the flower seller．
              D．The elderly woman was moved to tears by Tenyson’s gesture．
              58．The underlined word“intimidated”in the fourth paragraph probably means“    ”．
              A．astonished  B．struck  C．frightened  D．excited

            • 4． It seemed like there were quarrels every evening．My children were always fighting over something．They never agreed on who had last washed the dishes，or who had last picked the，TV program．I was tired of constantly being a judge．
              One day，I thought over what my life was like before marriage．I recalled my high school days when the terms“Odd（奇数的）”day/and“Even”day meant something．My class schedule changed by turns between“O”days and“E”days．On O days I might attend Physics and Maths．And on E days I’d go to another elective class，such as First aid or Art．
              So I explained our new system to the children．“Jolee，you were born first，”I said．“Is one an odd number or all even one？”
              “It’s odd，Mom．”
              “And A1，you arrived second．Is two odd or even？”
              “It’s even，Mom．”
              “Ok，so Jolee，from now on，every odd day is automatically your own special day．That means you get to pick what to watch，or which board game to play．Al，the same applies to you on even days．”
              He thought about it a minute，then said，“But there are more odd days than even ones in some months．Jolee will get‘her day’two times in a row when a month ends in 31，and the next one begins with a one．”
              “True，”I said，“but that also means she’11 be taking the smelly，disgusting rubbish out，washing the dishes，and doing other less-enjoyable things two more days in a row，and you won’t．It’s part of life’s give-and-take．”
              For the first few days after that，whenever one kid shouted，“Mom!”I’d just call out，“Whose day is it？”That settled it．Soon．the quarrelling ended．
              Ah，the complete joy of peace and quiet！
              41．What made the writer bored？    
              A．Programs on TV．            
              B．Washing the dishes．
              C．Her children’s quarreling． 
              D．Her dull marriage．
              42．What can we learn from Paragraph 2？    
              A．The writer’s life before marriage was happy．
              B．The writer’s grades were，good at high schoo1．
              C．The writer’s class schedule changed every day．
              D．The writer’s favorite subject was Physics and Maths．

            • 5． The Brown Bear
              My wife Laura and I were on the beach，with three of our children，taking pictures of shore birds near our home in Alaska when we spotted a bear．The bear was thin and small，moving aimlessly．
              Just a few minutes later，I heard my daughter shouting，“Dad!The bear is right behind us!”An agreesive bear will usually rush forward to frighten away its enemy but would suddenly stop at the last minute．This one was silent and its ears pinned back----the sign （迹象） of an animal that is going in for the kill．And it was a cold April day．The bear behaved abnormally，probably because of hunger．
              I held my camera tripod （三脚架） in both hands to form a barrier as the bear rushed into me．Its huge head was level with my chest and shoulders，and the tripod stuck across its mouth．It bit down and I found myself supporting its weight．I knew I would not be able to hold it for long．
              Even so，this was a fight I had to win：I was all that stood between the bear and my family，who would stand little chance of running faster than a brown bear．
              The bear hit at the camera，cutting it off the tripod．I raised my left arm to protect my face； the beast held tightly on the tripod and pressed it into my side．My arm could not move，and I sensed that my bones were going to break．
              Drawing back my free hand，I struck the bear as hard as I could for five to six times．The bear opened its mouth and I grasped its fur，trying to push it away．I was actually wrestling （扭打） with the bear at this point．Then，as suddenly as it had begun，the fight ended．The bear moved back toward the forest，before returning for another attack-----The first time I felf panic．
              Apparently satisfied that we caused no further threat，the bear moved off，destroying a fence as it went．My arm was injured，but the outcome for us could hardly have been better．I’m proud that my family reminded clear-headed when panic could have led to a very different outcome．

              60．The brown bear approached the family in order to    ．
              A．catch shore birds
              B．start an attack
              C．protect the children

              62．The writer and his family survived mainly due to their    ．

            • 6． Samuel Osmond is a 19-year-old law student from Cornwall，England．He never studied the piano．However，he can play very difficult musical  pieces by musicians such as Chopin and Beethoven just a few minutes after he hears them．He learns a piece of music by listening to it in parts．Then he thinks about the notes in his head．Two years ago，he played his first piece Moonlight Sonata（奏鸣曲）by Beethoven．He surprised everyone around him．
              Amazed that he remembered this long and difficult piece of music and played it perfectly，his teachers say Samuel is unbelievable．They say his ability is very rare，but Samuel doesn’t even realize that what he can do is special．Samuel wanted to become a lawyer as it was the wish of his parents，but music teachers told him he should study music instead．Now，he studies law and music．
              Samuel can’t understand why everyone is so surprised．“I grew up with music．My mother played the piano and my father played the guitar．About two years ago，I suddenly decided to start playing the piano，without being able to read music and without having any lessons．It comes easily to me---I hear the notes and can bear them in mind---each and every note，”says Samuel．
              Recently，Samuel performed a piece during a special event at his college．The piece had more than a thousand notes．The audience was impressed by his amazing performance．He is now learning a piece that is so difficult that many professional pianists can’t play it．Samuel says confidently，”It’s all about super memory---I guess I have that gift．”
              However，Samuel’s ability to remember things doesn’t stop with music．His family says that even when he was a young boy，Samuel heard someone read a story，and then he could retell the story word for word．
              Samuel is still only a teenager．He doesn’t know what he wants to do in the future．For now，he is just happy to play beautiful music and continue his studies．

            • 7． My daughter and I collected the empty cans and bottles in our home．this morning，We had 6 full garbage bags later so I knew we would be spending a bit more of time at the recycling center．When we got there，a man and his kids were also doing the morning recycling and were using two of the four machines to recycle their plastic and cans．Luckily，we were able to use the 2 remaining machines．
                   Of course，there were others that came，but when they saw the two，families with garbage bags full of recycled things，they quickly left．However，one woman came in with just 5 cans and looked as if she was in a hurry．So I stopped what I was doing and let her in to recycle her cans．Of course，she was grateful，and it felt good to let her go ahead of me．But that was not the whole story．
                    My daughter and I continued to work through the bags，but the plastic recycling machine stopped working because it was full．My daughter was left with nothing to，do．The other family was still  using the other two plastic recycling machines，but it．seemed that they were almost done．I just told my daughter we would have to wait until they were done．But the man of the other family came through with another act of kindness．He offered to let us go ahead of him．I was really surprised，because we had more than 5 bottles，but he didn’t seem to mind．I happily accepted it．
                    It was great to give and then to get an act of kindness in turn．It was small，I didn't expect it，but it surely brightened up my day．

            • 8． “Grandma，Grandma，tell us a story!”Four darling children sat by my feet，looking up at me expectantly．
              Suddenly，we were interrupted by clapping．“Terrific，”the director said，stepping up the stage from the aisle （侧廊）．“Except，could you kids face the audience a bit more？”
              The kids moved to face the empty seats，which would be filled in a few days for the church play．“Perfect，”the director said．“Now，Grandma，read to your grandchildren．”A pang （剧痛） of sadness hit me．If only I could read to my real grandchild!
              I had a granddaughter，but I’d never met her．Sixteen years earlier my son had a marriage that ended badly．But out of it came a blessing：a baby girl named Lena．I hoped to be a grandmother to her-but shortly after the birth，the mother moved without any address left．Over the years，I asked around town to try and find my son’s ex-wife （前妻），but it seemed that she didn’t want to be found．
              I’d just joined this new church a week earlier，and was at once offered the part of Grandma in the play．At least now I could pretend to be a grandma．The rehearsals （排练） went well，and finally the day of the show arrived．The performance was great．“You all looked so natural up there，”one of my friends said．
              Afterward，we went to the church basement for some tea．I walked over to one of the girls in the play．Rehearsals had been so busy that we never really got to talk．“How’s my granddaughter？”I joked．
              “Fine!”she answered．Just then，someone else walked up and asked the girl her name．
              I wasn’t sure I heard the girl’s answer correctly．But it made me ask her another question．“What’s your mother’s name？”
              She told me．I was still in shock．“And what’s your father’s name？”I asked．She told me．It was my son．
              She’d only started going to that church a week before I did．Since that day of the play，we’ve stayed close．Not long ago，she even made me a great grandma．

              31．What was the author doing at the beginning of the story？    
              A．Telling a story．

              C．Preparing for a play．
              D．Acting in a movie．
              32．Why did the author feel“a pang of sadness”at the words of the director？    
              A．The director’s words hurt her so badly．
              B．She wished that she had a real grandchild．
              C．The director wasn’t content with her performance．
              D．The director’s words reminded her of her lost granddaughter．
              33．What happened in the church basement after the play？    
              A．The author played a joke on Lena．

            • 9． It’s such a happy-looking library，painted yellow，decorated with palm-tree stickers and sheltered from the Florida sun by its own roof．About the size of a microwave oven，it’s pedestrian-friendly，too，waiting for book lovers next to a sidewalk in Palm Beach country Estates，along the northern boundary of Palm Beach Gardens．
                     It’s a library built with love．
                     A year ago，shortly after Janey Henriksen saw a Brian Williams report about the Little Free Library organization，a Wisconsin-based nonprofit that aims to promote literacy and build a sense of community in a neighborhood by making books freely available，she announced to her family of four，“That’s what we’re going to do for our spring break!”
                     Son Austin，now a 10th-grader，didn’t see the point of building a library that resembles a mailbox．But Janey insisted，and husband Peter unwillingly got to work．The 51-year-old owner of a ship supply company modified a small wooden house that he’d built years earlier for daughter Abbie’s toy horses，and made a door of glass．
                     After adding the library’s final touches （装点），the family hung a signboard on the front，instructing users to“take a book，return a book，”and making the Henriksen library，now one of several hundred like it nationwide and among more than 2，500 in the world，the only Little Free Library in Palm Beach County．
                     They stocked it with 20 or so books they’d already read，a mix of science fiction，reference titles，novels and kids’favorites．“I told them，keep in mind that you might not see it again，”said Janey，a stay-at-home mom．
                     Since then，the collection keeps replenishing （补充） itself，thanks to ongoing donations from borrowers．The library now gets an average of five visits a day．
                     The project’s best payoff，says Peter，are the thank-you notes left behind．“We had no idea in the beginning that it would be so popular．”（317 words）
              66．In what way is the library“pedestrian-friendly”？    
                 A．It owns a yellow roof．B．It stands near a sidewalk．
                 C．It protects book lovers from the sun．D．It uses palm-tree stickers as decorations．
              67．Janey got the idea to build a library from    
              A．a visit to Brian Williams                                
              B．a spring break with her family
              C．a book sent by one of her neighbors                
              D．a report on a Wisconsin-based organization
              68．The library was built    
              A．by a ship supply company                              
              B．on the basis of toy horses
              C．like a mailbox                                              
              D．with glass
              69．What can we infer about the signboard？    
              A．It was made by a user of the library．
              B．It marked a final touch to the library．
              C．It aimed at making the library last long．
              D．It indicated the library was a family property．
              70．The passage tells us that the users    
              A．donate books to the library                            
              B．get paid to collect books for the library
              C．receive thank-you notes for using the library

            • 10． Three Boys and a Dad
              Brad closed the door slowly as Sue left home to visit her mother．Expecting a whole day to relax，he was thinking whether to read the newspaper or watch his favourite TV talk show on his first day off in months．“This will be like a walk in the park，”he’d told his wife．“I’ll look after the kids，and you can go visit your mom．”
              Things started well，but just after eight o’clock，his three little“good kids”-Mike，Randy，and Alex-came down the stairs in their night clothes and shouted“breakfast，daddy．”When food had not appeared within thirty seconds，Randy began using his spoon on Alex’s head as if it were a drum．Alex started to shout loudly in time to the beat（节拍）．Mike chanted“Where’s my toast，where’s my toast”in the background．Brad realized his newspaper would have to wait for a few seconds．
              Life became worse after breakfast．Mike wore Randy’s underwear on his head．Randy locked himself in the bathroom，while Alex shouted again because he was going to wet his pants．Nobody could find clean socks，although they were before their very eyes．Someone named“Not Me”had spilled a whole glass of orange juice into the basket of clean clothes．Brad knew the talk show had already started．
              By ten o’clock，things were out of control．Alex was wondering why the fish in the jar refused his bread and butter．Mike was trying to show off his talent by decorating the kitchen wall with his colour pencils．Randy，thankfully，appeared to be reading quietly in the family room，but closer examination showed that he was eating apple jam straight from the bottle with his hands．Brad realised that the talk show was over and reading would be impossible．
              At exactly 11：17，Brad called the daycare centre （日托所）．“I suddenly have to go into work and my wife’s away．Can I bring the boys over in a few minutes？”The answer was obviously“yes”because Brad was smiling．
