    试题分析：本文介绍著名影星Audrey Hepburn(奥黛丽·赫本)的生平事迹。1953年主演的《罗马假日》使她一举成名。从1989年直至1993年去世，赫本一直担任联合国儿童基金会的特使，为拉美和非洲儿童提供了很大帮助。
    小题1:推理判断题。此题应根据全文内容来判断。第一段是全文的概括，其重心在后面，即奥黛丽·赫本尽管获得奥斯卡最佳女主角奖，但她担当的援助工作同样使人铭记。再结合文章接下来的叙述可知答案为D。
    小题2:细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Her mother thought it would be safe from German attacks”可知在荷兰比较安全，C项正确。
    小题3:推理判断题。根据第二段和第三段前半部分可知，A项错误；根据第三段中“she realized she wasn’t going to be a ballerina”可知是她主动放弃的，C项错误；根据第四段中“In 1951 she played the character‘Gigi’in the Broadway play”及后文可判断，这个角色并不是她扮演的最有名的角色，因此D项错误。由文章第三段的But it was Audrey Hepburn’s move to America that brought her true fame ,In 1951 she played the character“Gigi”in the Broadway play of the same name to great critical praise,可知她在20世纪50年代在美国生活，B项正确。
    小题4:细节理解题。可以运用排除法。她的婚姻、身份和贡献在文章中都提到了，唯独没有提及她的宗教信仰，故选D。
    小题5:排列顺序题。结合文章内容可知：她先从荷兰回来，第一次演电影，赢得奥斯卡最佳女演员奖，在 My Fair Lady里面担任角色，周游世界支持联合国儿童基金会计划。
    判断A项顺序正确。

    Linda Evans was my best friend—like the sister I never had. We did everything together: piano lessons, movies, swimming, horseback riding.
    When I was 13, my fami1y moved away. Linda and I kept in touch through letters, and we saw each other on special times—like my wedding and Linda’s. Soon we were busy with children and moving to new homes, and we wrote less often. One day a card that I sent came back, stamped“Address Unknown”. I had no idea about how to find Linda.
    Over the years, I missed Linda very much. I wanted to share happiness of my children and then grandchildren. And I needed to share my sadness when my brother and then mother died. There was an empty place in my heart that only a friend like Linda could fill.
    One day, I was reading a newspaper when I noticed a photo of a young woman who looked very much like Linda and whose last name was Wagman—Linda’s married name.“There must be thousands of Wagmans.”I thought, but I still wrote to her.
    She called as soon as she got my letter.“Mrs. Tobin!”she said excitedly,“Linda Evans Wagman is my mother.”
    Minutes later I heard a voice that I recognized at once, even after 40 years. We laughed and cried and caught up on each other’s lives. Now the empty place in my heart is fil1ed. And there’s one thing that Linda and I know for sure: We won’t lose each other again!

    Pulling heavy suitcases all day in the summer is hard work, especially when you're a thin 14-year-old.That was me in 1940-the youngest and smallest baggage boy at New York City's Pennsyl-vania Railway Station.
    After just a few days on the job, I began noticing that the other fellows were overcharging passengers. I'd like to join them, thinking, "Everyone else is doing it."
    When I got home that night, I told my dad what I wanted to do." You give an honest day's work," he said, looking at me straight in the eye."  They're paying you. If they want to do that, you let them do that."
    I followed my dad's advice for the rest of that summer and have lived by his words ever since.
    Of all the jobs I've had, it was my experience at Pennsylvania Railway Station that has stuck with me. Now I teach my players to have respect for other people and their possessions. Being a member of a team is a totally shared experience. If one person steals, it destroys trust and hurts everyone. I can put up with many things, but not with people who steal. If one of my players were caught stealing, he'd be gone.
    Whether you're on a sports team, in an office or a member of a family, if you can't trust one another, there's going to be trouble. 
    小题1:What can be inferred about the baggage boys? 
    A．They could earn much, but they had to work hard.
    B．Many of them earned money in a dishonest way.
    C．They were all from poor families.
    D．They were all thin, young boys.
    小题2:What does the father's advice imply?
    A．It is wrong to give more pay to the passengers.
    B．Don't believe them if they are paying you more.
    C．Don't follow others to overcharge the passengers.
    D．It is difficult to work hard and live as an honest boy.
    小题3:The writer can't put up with stealing because he thinks that ______. 
    A．it is a totally shared experience
    B．it is considered as the most dangerous
    C．it does great harm to human relationship
    D．it may lead to the loss of his sports team
    小题4:It can be concluded from the text that ______. 
    A．his father's advice helped him to decide which job to take up
    B．working in the sports team was his most important experience
    C．he learnt much from his shared experience with his team members
    D．his experience as a baggage boy had a great influence on his later life

    The house was quiet at 5 a.m. and Tim’s mother was asleep. Only the sound of the big freezer broke the quiet. He’d dreamt of the cave last night. The purring (轻微颤动声) of the freezer had been the sea.
    Tim pulled on a sweater and put some apples into his schoolbag. It was too early for breakfast. He’d eat after he’d been through the cave, sitting on the rocks and staring at the sea.
    He wished he had a proper pack. His schoolbag would have to do. What else? Sandwiches ---but his mother might wake up if he started pulling out bread for sandwiches, she’d want to know why he had to leave so early. He settled for some biscuits, and left a note stuck to the table.
    Gone to Michael’s Back tonight .Tim.
    The sky was high and soft and light outside, though the sun still wasn’t up. Even the highway up the hill was quiet as he made his way down the street. The wind from the sea was fresh and sweet.
    The sandhills still breathed heat from yesterday’s sun, though the top of the sand was cool. He ran down to the beach impatiently, but there was no one, just dry sand dancing in the early wind and seabirds marching up and down watching the waves.
    The light changed suddenly. The first rays of sunlight stretched across the sea. The sun was pushing its way over the edge of the world．
    Over the first rocks, along to the point, Tim glanced back. The beach was still empty. The sun sailed higher in the sky.
    He could see the cave now, even darker in the morning light. The sand turned silver then dark gold as the water flowed away from it. He had to force himself to go closer. Why was it so much more mysterious now? But it would be silly to go back now after so much trouble. He needn’t go in all the way …
