【1】 One day, a poor boy who was trying to pay his way through school by selling goods door to door found that he only had one dime(10分硬币) left. He was hungry so he decided to beg for a meal at the next house.
【2】 However, he lost his courage when a lovely young woman opened the door. Instead of a meal he asked for a drink of water. She thought he looked hungry so she brought him a large glass of milk. He drank it slowly, and then asked, “How much do I owe you?”
【3】 “You don’t owe me anything,” she replied. “Mother has taught me never to accept pay for a kindness.” He said, “Then I thank you from the bottom of my heart.” As Howard Kelly left that house, he not only felt stronger physically, but it also increased his faith in God and the human race. He was about to give up and quit before this point.
【4】 Years later the young woman became critically ill. The local doctors were baffled. They finally sent her to the big city, where specialists can be called in to study her rare disease. Dr Howard Kelly, now famous, was called in for the consultation. When he heard the name of the town __________, a strange light filled his eyes. Immediately, he rose and went down through the hospital hall into her room.
【5】Dressed in his doctor’s gown he went in to see her. He recognized her at once. He went back to the consultation room and determined to do his best to save her life. From that day on, he gave special attention to her case.
【6】After a long struggle, the battle was won. Dr Kelly requested the business office to pass the final bill to him for approval. He looked at it and then wrote something on the side. The bill was sent to her room. She was afraid to open it because she was positive that it would take the rest of her life to pay it off. Finally she looked, and the note on the side of the bill caught her attention. She read these words…
“Paid in full with a glass of milk”
(Signed) Dr Howard Kelly

[3] As a 23-year-old working at an electric fan company,Cowen dreamed up putting a little battery—powered fan motor onto a wooden toy train he called the Electric Express.He took it to a toy store,and they put it in the window to replace a train you had to push around by hand.Within days,Christmas shoppers snapped up six Lionel trains, and the company business took off
[4]While there were many toy train companies—the first electric train was exhibited at the 1893 World’s Fair in Chicago—Cowen’s invention beat them a11.probably because he tied it to Christmas and produced the toy villages and other things to put around the tree and the train.Still,competition has not stopped.Today there are many companies making toy trains of all sizes,some on tracks using electricity,some on the floor using wind-up springs(发条).

Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and required words limit. Write your answers on your answer sheet.
Most American school have boys and girls in the same classroom. But a public high school in the small, rural town of Boonsboro, Maryland, offers a special program. Top students in the ninth and tenth grades can attend single-sex classes for math, science, English and social studies.
The aim is to help teenagers keep their minds on their work by keeping males and females apart. Rebecca Brown chooses the students for what Boonsboro High School calls the Academy.
Placement in the Academy is voluntary.
Students are invited after middle school. They need high marks and test scores and strong teacher recommendations. They also need to be involved in activities.
Michael Bair has been at Boonsboro High for twenty years and directs the Academy. His ninth-grade English class for boys centres on books that he believes boys find interesting. He says, “The novels they're reading now are very manly novels. They're novels that deal with the arrogance(傲慢) of man and the pride of man.”
Morgan Van Fleet is a senior at Boonsboro High. She likes being in the Academy. She says boys and girls act differently when they are together in the classroom. She says, “To me, it almost seems like preventing your chances of developing yourself because you’re more focused on ‘Oh, I wish they'd shut up. Oh, what do they think of me?’, instead of focusing on ‘What's the homework? What's going on in this class? Or what's the lesson?''' There is one activity that girls and boys in the Academy do together. At the end of the day, many of them stay and help tutor(辅导) students who are having trouble in school.

Doctors say anger can be an extremely damaging, unless you learn how to deal with it. They warn that anger can lead to heart disease, stomach problems, headaches, emotional problems and possibly cancer.
Anger is a normal emotion that we all feel from time to time. Some people express anger openly in a calm reasonable way. Others burst with anger, and scream and yell. But other people keep their anger inside. They can not or will not express it. This is called repressing anger.
For years many doctors thought that repressing anger was more dangerous to a person's health than expressing it. They said that when a person is angry, the brain releases the same hormones . They speed the heart rate, raise blood pressure, or sugar into the blood, etc. In general the person feels excited and ready to act.
Some doctors say that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous. They believe that those who express anger violently may be more likely to develop heart disease, and they believe that those who keep their anger inside may face a greater danger of high blood pressure.
Doctors say the solution is learning how to deal with anger. They say the first step is to admit that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger, then decide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about.If it is, they say, "Do not express your anger while angry. Wait until your anger has cooled down and you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably."
Doctors say that a good way to deal with anger is to find humor in the situation that has made you angry. They said that laughter is much healthier than anger.

Ashley Power’s mother bought a computer for her when she was eight. When she was thirteen, she was surfing the Internet regularly, but she couldn’t find anywhere for teenagers to meet and talk. And one day she thought, “If I had my own website, I’d make it a really interesting site for teenagers.”
So, when Ashley was sixteen, she launched her own website, called GooseHead. She had no idea how big a success it would be, but three years later, the site was the most successful teen site in the USA! It was getting 100,000 hits every day, and Ashley had about 30 employees.
After a few years, the website closed down. Then Ashley, who lives in Los Angeles, was asked to write a book called The GooseHead Guide to Life. The book is about how to design a website and start a business. It begins with a section called “All about Ashley,” where Ashley tells readers what it is like to be the boss of a company when you are only sixteen. “I was so happy. But it was crazy in a lot of ways. I got much stressed. I mean, I was only sixteen – I didn’t even have a car! If you were sixteen and you had your own company, you’d be stressed, too!”
In an interview Ashley gave advice to teenagers who wanted to start their own business, “Just be strong and have your dreams and work hard at them. And don’t listen when people tell you that you can’t do it, because I heard ‘no’ a lot. Just keeping until you hear ‘yes’!”

Empathy
【1】Last year,researchers from the University of Michigan reported that empathy,the ability to understand other people,among college students had dropped sharply over the past 1 0 years.That could be because so many people have replaced face time with screen time,the researchers said.Today,people spend more time alone and are less likely to join groups and clubs.
【2】Jennifer Freed,a co—director of a teen program,has another explanation.Turn on the TV,and you’re showered with news and reality shows full of people fighting,competing,and generally treating one another with no respect. Humans learn by example-and most of the examples on it are anything but empathetic.
【3】There are good reasons not to follow those bad examples.Humans are socially related by nature.Having relationships with other people is an important part of being human-and having empathy is decisive to those relationships.Researchers have also found that empathetic teenagers are more likely to have high self-respect.Besides,empathy can be a cure for loneliness,sadness,anxiety,and fear.
【4】Empathy is also an indication of a good leader.In fact,Freed says,many top companies report that empathy is one of the most important things that they look for in new managers.Good social skills-including emoathy-are essential abilities that will help you succeed in many areas of life."Academics are important.But if you don’t have emotional intelligence,you won’t be as successful in work or in your love life,”she says.
【5】____?For starters,let down your guard and really listen to others.“One doesn’t develop empathy by having a lot of opinions and doing a lot of talking,”Freed says.
【6】To really develop empathy, you’d better volunteer at a nursing home or a hospital,join a club or a team that has a diverse membership,have a“sharing circle’’with your family,or spend time caring for pets at all animal shelter.
小题1:According to the passage, what happened to the college students?(no more than 15 words)

Your vocabulary refers to the words in a language you are familiar with. Your active vocabulary contains the words you understand and use in speech and in print, and your passive vocabulary includes the words you do not use but understand. Although children learn more new words than adults, the vocabulary of an adult is not fixed and can be increased. Improve your language repertoire (全部技能) with daily exposure to new words, their pronunciations and meanings.
________. The more often you read, the faster your vocabulary can grow. Choose reading material that is slightly above your level and keep a dictionary with you to look up words you do not know.
Find a new word every day. If you do not encounter an unfamiliar word in your daily reading, use your dictionary to search for one.
Learn the correct definition and pronunciation for each new word you encounter. Pronunciation is as important as definition because in order to add a word to your active vocabulary, you must be able to use it in speech.
Explain the meaning of the word so that you can connect it to something memorable. Use imagery and personal relevance(关联). If you have just learned that the word “obstinate” means stubborn and unyielding, think about the neighbor who will not lend you his car. Imagine him shaking his head, and think of him as obstinate in his refusal.
Use your new word in speech and in writing. Tell a friend about your boss obstinately refusing to reschedule your vacation time. E-mail your sister about how your cat is obstinate about sleeping on your pillow. The first time you use a new word in speech it may seem clumsy and forced, but the more you use it, the more fluent you will become in its use. Soon it will be a regular part of your active vocabulary.
Tell everyone you are trying to increase your vocabulary. Encourage them to ask you what your latest word is, or to ask for the definition of a new word you have used. The more you explain the meaning of a word to someone, the more likely you are to remember it.

[1]Listening is one of the most important skills we can ever learn and an essential part of communication; not only does it help you to build close relations with other people, it’s also away of showing respect for others, When people feel respected, it’s very easy to build long, happy relationships , We all know people who are really had listeners, They love the sound of their own voices so much that you can’t get a chance to speak ,What’s important is active listening; paying attention, and then demonstrating your understanding of a conversation by repeating key points in your responses, People just want to feel like they are understood, Here are some ways to improve you listening skills.
[2]never talk over people
This shows a real lack of respect ,By talking over someone what you’re basically saying is “I don’t care what you’re saying—what I have to say is more important”.
[3]Don’t finish other people’s sentences.
I used to do this a lot thinking I was helpfully finishing people’s sentences for them, Wrong, Research has shown by doing this you are discouraging the other person because you are taking control of the conversation, so bite you tongue !
[4]Paraphrase(改述)
If you want to show that you have really understood someone, then paraphrasing is a great too1, All you have to do is repeat back to someone what they have just said , before you comment yourself, Here’s an example:“So Barney ,what I’m hearing is that results are the number one objective for you fight now and we need to find some fast solutions for you?”
[5]Listen actively
Focus on active listening instead of passive listening , The difference is that active listening means you engage and respond to the other person based on what they have said while passive listening is simply the act of listening
