I am a mother of three and have recently completed my college degree. The last class I had to take was sociology***社會學***. The teacher was really great. The class was asked to go out and smile at three people.
I am a very 31 person and thought this would be a piece of cake. Soon after, my husband, youngest son and I went out to McDonald’s. We were standing in line, waiting to be 32 , when all of a sudden everyone around us began to 33 away, and then even my husband did.
As I turned around I smelled a terrible “dirty body” smell, and there standing behind me were two poor homeless men. As I loo ked down at the short gentleman, he was “ 34 ”. His beautiful sky blue eyes were full of God’s Light as he searched for acceptance. He said, “Good day.” as he counted the few 35 he had been holding.
The young lady at the counter***櫃檯*** asked him what they 36 . He said, “Coffee is all Miss.” because that was all they could afford. He just needed to be warm.
Then I really 37 it—the compulsion***衝動*** was so great that I almost reached out and hugged the little man with the blue eyes.
That is when I noticed all eyes in the restaurant were set on me, judging my every action. I smiled and asked the young lady behind the counter to give 38 two more breakfast meals on two plates.
I then picked up the plates and walked around the counter to the 39 that the men had chosen as a resting place. I put the plates on the table and laid my hand on the blue-eyed gentleman’s 40 hand. He looked up at me, with tears in his eyes, and said, “Thank you.”
I graduated with one of the biggest lessons I would ever learn:acceptance without condition.

Jenny knew she had a problem when she looked in her money box. It was only three days until the school trip to the beach, and Jenny didn‘t have any money. To make things worse, her next pocket money was still six days away.
“What’s the matter, Jenny?”asked her sister, Mary.
“Mary,” said Jenny, “I’m in double trouble. I can’t go to the beach with my classmates, and I’ve broken my promise to Mom. I promised I’d stay within my budget ***預算*** this month.”
For a few minutes, the two girls just sat and thought. Then Mary grabbed Jenny’s arm.
“Jenny, I won’t give you the money, but I will help you. Just listen for a minute.”
At first, Jenny wasn‘t interested since Mary wasn‘t willing to give her the money she needed. However, after Mary explained her plan, Jenny began to like it.
Mary would lend Jenny the money for the beach trip, but Jenny would have to create a real budget for herself and follow it. In addition, if Jenny successfully followed the budget, Mary wouldn‘t tell their mother about Jenny‘s recent money disaster.
“Mary, you are a lifesaver,” Jenny hugged Mary’s neck.
The two sisters began to work together. After several hours, they agreed on how Jenny should use her money. Mary took their figures and made a graph ***表格*** for Jenny.
Holding up the graph, Mary said, “Now you can see where your money should go each month.”
“Thanks, Mary,” Jenny said. “But I know one thing that my money can’t buy. It couldn’t buy another great sister like you,” said Jenny. Then she hung her new budget on her bedroom wall.
45. What was Jenny‘s problem?
A. She had no friends. B. She had no money.
C. She had nothing to do. D. She had no free time.
46. How did Mary help Jenny?
A. By going to the beach with her.
B. By telling Mom about her problem.
C. By planning on how to use money with her.
D. By buying things for the school trip for her.
47. What can we learn from the passage?
A. A useful way is better than direct help.

D. Nothing is impossible if you put your heart into it.

The Vieira family moved to the United States in 1981. At that time, they decided to stop speaking Spanish at home and only communicate in English. This was because they were now living in an English-speaking country.
Now the Vieira children are adults, and they sometimes travel to Spain to visit their family and friends. But they cannot communicate with them. Unfortunately this is common. When people move to new countries, they often leave their own customs and mother language behind. This is a mistake because there are many benefits***益處***of knowing more than one language.
One advantage of speaking more than one language is that you can communicate directly with more people around the world. You do not have to depend on others to talk for you, so you’re more independent. People who know only one language must use others to help them communicate.
Furthermore, speaking a second language also allows people to experience other cultures and customs more effectively***有效地***. Local expressions, vocabulary, and even jokes can have a powerful effect on a person’s understanding of another culture. So, knowing more than one language increases your knowledge of other cultures.
Finally, having more multi-language speakers improves relationships between countries. If people from different countries can communicat e well, the world can become closer. Countries will then have more respect for each other and better unders tand each other’s problems.
The benefits of knowing more than one language are clear. In fact, there are no disadvantages. It is very sad that many people don’t try to learn another language. It is even worse when people let themselves forget their mother language and become silenced.
48. The passage begins with the experience of the Vieira family in order to______.
A. discuss the need for teaching a new language
B. show the problems of speaking only one language
C. describe the advantages of moving to another country
D. introduce the passage’s main characters to the readers
49. According to the passage, if you can speak more than one language, you can______.
A. find a better job B. make more friends
C. better understand history D. communicate more independently
50. The underlined phrase “multi-language speakers” ***In Paragraph 5*** means “people who know ______.”
A. more than one language B. a new language
C. their mother language D. body language
51. What is the passage mainly about?
A. How to learn another language.
B. The importance of learning English.
C. The benefits of learning other languages.
D. The reasons why people come to America.

Carmen Arace Middle School is situated in the pastoral town of Bloomfield, Conn, but four years ago it faced many of the same problems as inner-city schools in nearby Hartford: low scores on standardized tests and dropping enrollment***入學註冊***. Then the school’s hard-driving headmaster, Delores Bolton, persuaded her board to shake up the place by buying a laptop computer for each student and teacher to use, in school and at home. What’s more, the board provided wireless Internet access at school. Total cost: $2.5 million.
Now, an hour before classes start, every seat in the library is taken by students who cannot wait for getting online. Fifth-grade teacher Jen Friday talks about different kinds of birds as students view them at a colorful website. After school, students on buses pull laptops from backpacks to get started on homework. Since the computer arrived, enrollment is up 20%. Scores on state tests are up 35%.
Indeed, school systems in rural Maine and New York City also hope to follow Arace Middle School’s example. Governor Angus King had planned using $50 million to buy a laptop for all of Maine’s 17,000 seventh-graders – and for new seventh-graders each fall.
In the same spirit, the New York City board of education voted on April 12 to create a school Internet portal*********, w hich would make money by selling ads and licensing public school students. Profits***盈利***will also provide e-mail service for the city’s 1.1 million public school students. Profits will be used to buy laptops for each of the school system’s 87,000 fourth-graders. Within nine years, all students in grades 4 and higher will have their own computers.
Back in Bloomfield, in the meantime, most of the kinks have been worked out. Some students were using their computers to visit unauthorized***非法的***websites. But teachers have the ability to keep an eye o n where students have been on the Web and to stop them. “That is the worst when they disable you,” says eighth-grade honors student Jamie Bassell. The habit is rubbing off on parents. “I taught my mom to use e-mail,” says another eighth-grader, Katherine Hypolite. “And now she’s taking computer classes. I’m so proud of her!”
52. The example of Carmen Arace Middle School in the passage is used to ______.
A. show the problems schools are faced with today
B. prove that a school without high enrollment can do well
C. express the importance of computers in modern education
D. tell that laptops can help improve students’ school performance
53. According to the writer, students in New York City’s public schools will ______.
A. enjoy e-mail service in the near future
B. make money by selling ads on websites
C. all have their own laptops within nine years
D. become more interested in their studies with laptops
54. The underlined word “kinks” in the last paragraph most probably means ______.
A. plans B. projects C. problems D. products
55. From the passage we learn that ______.
A. a school Internet portal is the key to a laptop program
B. the laptop program also has a good influence on parents
C. students slowly accept the fact their online activities controlled
D. the laptop program in public school is mainly for the eighth-graders

When I just moved to Los Angeles, I didn’t have a car. 56 , but I wanted to prove them wrong.
I asked my neighbor, Mrs. White, to take me to the bus station in the center of the city so I could try taking the bus home. 57 . When I got there, I went inside and got a bus timetable. I looked at the map and worked out that I needed to take three buses t o get home.

At the right stop, I rang the bell and got off. 58 . I waited and waited. A man who was also waiting for the Number 14 bus said that it wasn’t unusual for the bus to be late. 59 To make the matter worse, the third bus broke down halfway and the driver had to fix it. 60 .
