    My goddaughter, Shari, owns The Berry Factory in Sacramento, California, and her mother, Joan, and I were helping with the Valentine’s Day rush. We’d dipped hundreds of berries, arranged gift baskets and packaged orders to be   36    around the country.
    By the end of the day, the two middle-aged women, Joan and I, were exhausted. But Shari didn’t seem tired. That was   37  Shari.   38 she was very busy, I’d seen her give away berries to everyone—parking attendants, mail carriers and hairdressers. “For me?” they would say, bursting into    39  .
     40 a“thank you”, Shari took us out for dinner. But there was a 45-munite  41  at her favorite restaurant. “No big   42  . There’s another place just up the road,” she said, driving up there. This time we walked right   43  .
    When the waitress came to   44   our drink orders, Shari    45   into her handbag, pulling something out. “ I want you to have these,” she said,   46  the waitress a box of chocolate-dipped strawberries. “ She will love those berries!” I thought.   47   the waitress seemed very surprised instead. She only let out a “thank you”  48  grabbing the box and rushing into the kitchen.
    A few minutes later, the waitress returned    49  our iced tea. “ I apologize,” she said. “ My best friend and I had   50  to send each other something every Valentine’s Day. But she    51   last year. I didn’t know how I’d    52   this day without her. Then you handed me that box.”
    “ I’m so sorry to hear that,” said Shari. “ It’s not much, but I hope you can   53  them.”
    “ Oh, I will,” the waitress said. “ See, every year we   54  sent each other the same thing: a box of chocolate-dipped strawberries bought from our favorite store, The Berry    55   .”

    A woman renewing her driver’s license at the County Clerk’s office was asked to state her occupation. She hesitated, uncertain how to classify herself.
    “What I mean is,” explained the recorder, “do you have a job, or are you just a …”
    “Of course I have a job,” said Emily. “I’m a mother.”
    “We don’t list ‘mother’ as an occupation…‘housewife’ covers it,” said the recorder.
    One day I found myself in the same situation. The clerk was obviously a career woman, confident and possessed of a high sounding title. “What is your occupation?” she asked.
    The words simply popped out. “I’m a Research Associate in the field of Child Development and Human Relations.”
    The clerk paused, ballpoint pen frozen in midair.
    I repeated the title slowly, then I stared with wonder as my statement was written in bold, black ink on the official questionnaire.
    “Might I ask,” said the clerk with new interest, “Just what you do in this field?”
    Coolly, without any trace of panic in my voice, I heard myself reply, “I have a continuing program of research (what mother doesn’t), in the lab and in the field (normally I would have said indoors and out). Of course, the job is one of the most demanding in the humanities (any mother care to disagree?), and I often work 14 hours a day (24 is more like it). But the job is more challenging than most careers and rewards are more of a satisfaction rather than just money.”There was an increasing note of respect in the clerk’s voice as she completed the form, stood up, and showed me out.
    As I drove into our driveway, buoyed up (鼓舞) by my glamorous new career, I was greeted by my lab assistants---ages 13, 7, and 3.
    Upstairs I could hear our new experimental model (a 6 month old baby), in the child-development program, testing out a new vocal（嗓音的） pattern.
    I felt proud! I had gone on the official records as someone more distinguished and indispensable (不可缺少的) to mankind than “just another mother.”
    Motherhood…What a glorious career! Especially when there’s a title on the door.
    小题1:What can we infer from the conversation between the woman and the recorder at the beginning of the passage?
    A．Motherhood was not recognized and respected as a job by society.
    B．The recorder was impatient and rude.
    C．The author was upset about the situation that mothers faced.
    D．The woman felt ashamed to admit what her job was.
    小题2:How did the female clerk feel at first when the author told her occupation?
    A．curiousB．indifferentC．interestedD．puzzled
    小题3:Why did the woman clerk show more respect for the author?
    A．Because the author cared little about rewards.
    B．Because she admired the author’s research work in the lab.
    C．Because the writer did something she had little knowledge of.
    D．Because she thought the author did admirable work.
    小题4:What is the author’s purpose of writing the passage?
    A．To show how you describe your job affects your feelings toward it.
    B．To show that the author had a grander job than Emily.
    C．To argue that motherhood is a worthy career and deserves respect.
    D．To show that being a mother is hard and boring work.

    Roy wasn't the only one to receive his call-up（入伍）papers．Stephen Napier's call-up came at the beginning of February and he was pleased to find that he would be going into the Royal Air Force (RAF)．
    His father was not so pleased and made his feelings known as he and Stephen were on their daily walk. It was the first step in his plans for Stephen to take over the estate（地产）when the time came, and although Stephen was well aware of this, he could think of no reason not to accompany him.
    "Thought you'd forgotten that nonsense. Still, I dare say I could pull a few strings to get you to the Army..."
    "No, Father! I have told you I want to learn to fly. What chance would I have to do that in the Army? I'd be better off in the Navy——at least they've got the Fleet Air Arm. But I have been put in the RAF and that's where I want to be, so let's leave it at that." His face went red. Sent to his father's school and then to Cambridge, much to his satisfaction, he had never had to defend his own desires and his father was a hard man to oppose.
    The father glared at Stephen, "No, I won't leave it at that. I want to know what other ridiculous ideas are in your head. For a start, what's all this about America?"
    "America?"
    "Yes. All those books I saw in your room the other day. Brochures about emigration（移民）．"
    The big, silvered head lowered, like that of a bull about to charge．"Don't trouble to deny it."
    "I won't, Father. Some men at Cambridge have been talking about it. They want people like us here, mathematicians and scientists, for all kinds of research——the sort of research I could do．It would be a worthwhile life for me."
    The father responded exactly as his son had known he would．"You've got a worthwhile life here！You've got an estate to run！"
    "No, Father. You've got an estate to run. I never asked for it. Why not ask Baden to do this stuff? He perhaps can make a good job of it, but I..."
    "If he were here, I might think about this silly idea of yours——only think about it, mind you but..."
    小题1:If Father wanted Stephen to take over the estate, the first thing he did would__________．
    A．take a walk with Stephen as usual B．wait till his son graduated from Cambridge
    C．persuade Stephen not to go into RAF D．send Stephen to the Army instead of RAF
    小题2:Which statement is NOT true according to the passage?
    A．Stephen preferred to go into the Navy rather than the Army.
    B．Stephen also received his call-up papers as Roy.
    C．The father didn't like Stephen's idea of going to America.
    D．Stephen was eventually forced to stay to run the estate．
    小题3:After reading this passage, we can infer that__________．
    A．Stephen had never had to defend his desires before
    B．Baden might be one of Stephen's family members
    C．Stephen wanted to fly in RAF and become a pilot in America
    D．if somebody took over the estate, Stephen could realize his dream
    小题4:What do we learn from the underlined sentence?
    A．It looked as if the father was angry when mentioning the brochures.
    B．The father was very angry and wanted to beat his son Stephen．
    C．Stephen was annoyed when his father referred to the brochures.
    D．A big red bull was about to charge at Stephen.
    小题5:Which would be the best title for this passage?
    A．RAF——a better choice than the Army B．A talk between Father and Son
    C．The dreams of a Cambridge student D．Conflict between Father and Son

    The story begins with fishing.
    Once a boy and his father went fishing before bass (a kind of special fish) season opened. They were fishing early in the evening, catching other fish with worms. Then the boy tied on a small silver lure (鱼饵) and put it into the lake. Suddenly he felt that something very big pulling on the lure. His father watched with admiration as the boy skillfully brought the fish beside the bank. Finally he lifted the tired fish from the water. It was the largest one he had ever seen, but it was a bass(the special fish).
    The boy and his father looked at the big fish. The father lit a match and looked at his watch. It was 10 pm – two hours before the bass season opened. He looked at the fish, then at the boy. “You’ll have to put it back, son,” he said.
    “Dad!” cried the boy, “There will be other fish,” said his father. “Not as big as this one,” cried the boy. He looked around the lake. No other fishermen or boats were in sight in the moonlight. He looked again at his father.
    Even though no one had seen them, nor could anyone ever know what time he had caught the fish, the boy could tell from his father’s voice that the decision couldn’t be changed. He threw the huge bass into the black water. The big fish disappeared. The boy thought that he would never again see such a big fish.
    That was 34 years ago. Today the boy is a successful architect in New York City. He often takes his own son and daughters to fish at the same place.
    And he was right. He has never again caught such a large fish as the one he got that night long ago. But he does see that same fish … again and again … every time he has an ethical decision to make. For, as his father had taught him, ethics (伦理道德)are simple matters of right and wrong. It is only the practice of ethics that is difficult.
    小题1: What happened when the big fish turned out to be a bass?
    A．The boy threw the bass back into the water willingly.
    B．The boy and his father discussed what to do with the big fish.
    C．The father lit a match in order to check the time.
    D．They worried other fishermen may discover what they had done.
    小题2:From the text we know that the father _____.
    A．disliked the huge fishB．was firm and stubborn
    C．didn’t love his sonD．always disagreed with his son
    小题3:The successful architect went fishing with his children at the same place because _____.
    A．they might catch a big fish there
    B．he was taught a moral lesson there
    C．it was a most popular fishing spot
    D．their children enjoyed fishing there
    小题4:What does the story imply?
    A．An ethical decision is always easy to make.
    B．It is easy to say something, but difficult to do.
    C．It’s hard to tell right from wrong sometimes
    D．Fishing can help one to make right decisions
    小题5:What kind of the person the father is?
    A．kindB．honestC．optimisticD．satisfied

    Work is a part of living —my grandparents understood that. They lived and worked on a farm that has been in my family for 150 years. They raised chickens for eggs , pigs and cattle for meat . Cows were kept for milk and the cream, from which Grandma made butter and cheese. What little yard they had became a garden.
    The Depression, therefore, didn’t make much change in their lives. But it did bring an unending flow of men out of work, drifting from job to job, to the farm. The first to show up at the door of the kitchen was a man in rags. He took off his hat and quietly explained that he hadn’t eaten for a while. Grandpa stood watching him a bit , then said , “There’s a stack of firewood against the fence behind the barn (谷仓). I’ve been needing to get it moved to the other side of the fence . You have just about enough time to finish the job before lunch .”
    Grandma said a surprising thing happened. The man got a shine in his eyes and he hurried to the barn at once. She set another place at the table and made an apple pie. During lunch, the stranger didn’t say much, but when he left, his shoulders had straightened. “Nothing ruins a man like losing his self-respect,” Grandpa later told me.
    Soon after, another man showed up asking for a meal. This one was dressed in a suit and carried a small old suitcase. Grandpa came out when he heard voices. He looked at the man and then offered a handshake.” There is a stack of firewood along the fence down behind the barn I’ve been meaning to get it moved. It’d sure be a help to me . And we’d be pleased to have you stay for lunch.” The fellow set his suitcase aside and neatly laid his coat on top. Then he set off to work.
    Grandma says she doesn’t remember how many strangers they shared a meal with during those Depression days-or how many times that stack of wood got moved.
    小题1:When he was asked to move a stack of firewood, the first man who asked for a meal got a shine in his eyes for he was glad that         .
    A．he had found a good job
    B．he would have something to eat

    A．he didn’t want them to have a meal free of charge
    B．he had been needing to get it moved
    C．he wanted to help them in his own way
    D．he wanted to show them his kindness and respect
    小题3:The writer’s grandfather was all of the following but         .
    A．kind B．thoughtful C．wealthy D．sympathetic
    小题4:The best title for the story would be         .
    A．The Depression                  B．The Pleasure of Helping Others

    The teacher who did the most to encourage me was, as it happened, my aunt. She was Myrtle C. Manigault, the wife of my mother’s brother Bill. She taught in second grade at all-black Summer School in Camden, New Jersey.
    During my childhood and youth, Aunt Myrtle encouraged me to develop every aspect of my potential, without regard for what was considered practical or possible for black females. I liked to sing; she listened to my voice and pronounced it good. I couldn’t dance; she taught me the basic dancing steps. She took me to the theatre ---- not just children’s theatre but adult comedies and dramas—and her faith that I could appreciate adult plays was not disappointed.
    My aunt also took down books from her extensive library and shared them with me. I had books at home, but they were all serious classics. Even as a child I had a strong liking for humor, and I’ll never forget the joy of discovering Don Marquis’s Archy & Mehitabel through her.
    Most important, perhaps, Aunt Myrtle provided my first opportunity to write for publication. A writer herself for one of the black newspapers, she suggested my name to the editor as a “youth columnist”. My column, begun when I was fourteen, was supposed to cover teenage social activities—and it did—but it also gave me the freedom to write on many other subjects as well as the habit of gathering material, the discipline of meeting deadlines, and, after graduation from college six years later, a solid collection of published material that carried my name and was my passport to a series of writing jobs.
    Today Aunt Myrtle is still an enthusiastic supporter of her “favourite niece”. Like a diamond, she has reflected a bright, multifaceted (多面的) image of possibilities to every pupil who has crossed her path.
    小题1:Which of the following did Aunt Myrtle do to the author during her childhood and youth?
    A．She lent her some serious classics.B．She cultivated her taste for music.
    C．She discovered her talent for dancing.D．She introduced her to adult plays.
    小题2:Aunt Myrtle recommended the author to a newspaper editor mainly to ______.
    A．involve her in teenage social activitiesB．give her a chance to collect material
    C．develop her capabilities for writingD．offer her a series of writing jobs
    小题3:We can conclude from the passage that Aunt Myrtle was a teacher who ______.
    A．gave pupils confidence in exploiting their potential
    B．trained pupils to be diligent and well-disciplined
    C．emphasized what was practical or possible for pupils.
    D．helped pupils overcome difficulties in learning

    It was 3:12 a. m. when nine-year-old Glenn Kreamer awoke to the smell of burning. Except for the crackling（爆裂声）of flames somewhere below there was not a sound in the two-storey house at Baldwin, Long Island. With his father away on night duty at a local factory, Glenn was worried about the safety of his mother, his sister Karen, 14 and his 12-year-old brother Todd. He ran downstairs through the smoke filled house to push and pull at Karen and Todd until they sat up. Then he helped each one through the house to the safety of the garden. There, his sister and brother, taking short and quick breaths and coughing, collapsed on the lawn.
    The nine-year-old raced back into the house and upstairs to his mother’s room. He found it impossible to waked her up. Mrs. Kreamer, a victim of the smoke, was unconscious, and there was nobody to help Glenn carry her to the garden. But the boy remained calm and , as a fireman said later, “acted with all the self-control of a trained adult.”
    On the bedroom telephone, luckily still working, Glenn called his father and, leaving Mr. Kreamer to telephone the fire brigade and ambulance service, got on with the task of saving his mother.
    First he filled a bucket with water from the bathroom and threw water over his mother and her bed. Then, with a wet cloth around his head he went back to the garden.
