One day, I received a call from a colleague. He was about to give a student a zero for his answer to a physical problem, while the student claimed a perfect score. I was elected as their arbiter( 仲裁人). I read the examination problem:“Show how it is possible to determine the height of a tall building with the aid of a barometer(气压计).” The student had answered:“Take the barometer to the top of the building,attach a long rope to it,lower it to the street,and then bring it up, measuring the length of the rope. The length of it is the height of the building. ”
The student had really answered the question completely ,but the answer didn’t confirm his competence in physics. I suggested the student try again. I gave him six minutes to answer the question, warning that the answer should show some knowledge of physics. Five minutes later, he said he had many answers and clashed off one, which read:“Take the barometer to the top of the building and lean over the edge of the roof. Drop the barometer, timing its fall with a stopwatch. Then, use the physical formula (公式)to calculate the height of the building. ”
At this point, my colleague had to accept it, and then the student made almost full marks. I couldn’t help asking the student what the other answers were. He listed many others and then added “Probably the best is to take the barometer to the administrator and said to him,' Sir, here is a fine barometer. If you tell me the height of the building, I will give it to you.,”
Then, I asked the student if he really did not know the conventional answer to this question. He admitted that he did,but said that he was fed up with high school and college instructors trying to teach him how to think.
The name of the student was Bohr who later was famous all over the world. He won the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1922.
小题1:The student got a zero at the beginning because_______.
A.the teacher wasn’t satisfied with him.
B.his answer wasn’t complete or correct
C.his answer didn’t show his knowledge of physics
D.the teacher didn’t fully understand his answer
小题2:We know from the passage that______ .
A.the administrator told Bohr the height
B.the student knew the expected answer
C.the author preferred Bohr’s last answer
D.the teacher was a very stubborn person
小题3:We can learn from the passage that______.
A.instructors can teach students how to think
B.arbiters can help students to get high scores
C.teachers should make students use physical formulas
D.students should be given more freedom in thinking
小题4:What was Bohr’s attitude toward his schooling?

Suddenly a woman came beside me. She was in a soft green dress. I     as she picked up a large pack of T-bones,      them in her basket, hesitated, and then put them back. She saw me watching her and she smiled. "My husband loves T-bones, but     , at these prices, I don't know."
"My husband passed away eight days ago," I told her. "Buy him the steaks. And value every      you have together."
She smiled and I saw the feeling in her      as she placed the package in her basket and      away. I turned and pushed my cart forward too. Several minutes later I saw first the green suit and then      the pretty lady coming to me. In her arms she carried something. On her face was the      smile I had ever seen.
As she came closer, I saw what she held and      welled down. "These are for you, " she said and placed three beautiful yellow roses in my arms. She placed a gentle kiss on my cheek, then smiled again. I wanted to tell her what the roses     , but still unable to speak. I watched as she walked away as tears clouded my     . I looked down at the beautiful roses and found it almost     . How did she know?
Suddenly the      seemed so clear. I wasn't alone. "Oh, Bob, you haven't      me, have you?" I whispered, with tears in my eyes. He was still with me, and she was his angel.

The other day, I happened to meet someone I hadn’t seen for many years. I couldn’t believe the change in him. As a matter of fact, he didn’t even seem like the    person.

My wife and I used to feel that it was impossible to be a true friend to someone whose name we didn't know. How wrong we were! Years of Sunday-morning bus trips through the city with the same group of “nameless” people have changed our thinking. Before the bus takes off, we all join in a conversation: where’s the silent woman who sits up front and never responds to our cheery greetings? Here she comes. Her worn clothing suggests she doesn't have much money to spare, but she always takes an extra cup of coffee for the driver.
We get smiles from a Mexican couple as they get on the bus hand in hand. When they get off, they’re still holding hands. The woman was pregnant late last year, and one day her change of shape confirmed that she’d delivered the child. We even felt a little pride at the thought of our extended family.?
For many months, our only sadness lay in our inability to establish the same friendship with the silent woman at the front of the bus. Then, one evening, we went to a fish restaurant. We were shown to a table alongside someone sitting alone. It was the woman from the bus.?
We greeted her with friendly familiarity we’d shown all year, but this time her face softened, then a shy smile. When she spoke, the words escaped awkwardly from her lips. All at once we realized why she hadn’t spoken to us before. Talking was hard for her.?
Over dinner, we learned the stay of a single mother with a disabled son who was receiving special care away from home. She missed him desperately, she explained. “I love him… and he loves me, even though he doesn’t express it very well,” she murmured. “Lots of us have that problem, don’t we? We don’t say what we want to say, what we should be saying. And that’s not good enough.” The candles flared on our tables. Our fish had never tasted better. But the atmosphere grew pleasant, and when we parted as friends—we shared names.
小题1:All the following statements can describe the woman except ______.
A.poorB.warm -heartedC.silentD.cold
小题2:The underlined word “establish” in the 3th paragraph has the same meaning as_________.
A.keepB.discoverC.set upD.accept
小题3:The woman had the same problem with her son in the way that ______.
A.they both disabled people
B.they both had some difficulty in expressing
C.they both liked bus travel
D.they both brought interest to the passengers
小题4:Which of the following might be the best title of this passage?
A.Friends of the RoadB.The Silent Woman on the Bus
C.Going to Work by BusD.Different Kinds of Friendship
