    I was sitting at the bar of a local restaurant having __36__ and taking a break. A pretty girl who looked about 25 walked in and sat down in a booth(饭馆的小隔间) __37__ for her friend. It didn’t take long __38__ I saw she was trying to stay __39__ from other people’s gazes(注视) and my heart sank. You could see her hair was __40__ and, at such a young age, she was receiving chemo(化疗).
    I sat there watching her trying to remain composed(镇静的) and she was having a __41__ time of it. I __42__ for her, imagining what it must be like to go through this and yet I know some of her __43__.
    You see I __44__ my wife, the love of my life just a few short years ago and watched her slowly fade away. I needed to give a message of __45__ to this girl. But how? What could I do?
    Then it __46__ to me! I called over her waitress and explained that I wanted to buy the girl and her friend’s lunch but I also told her not to tell her it was me. I also __47__ the waitress a note to give to the girl.
    The note __48__ as follows:
    “ Someone today thought you were beautiful; someone today thought your smile glowed __49__ excitement; someone today thought your eyes __50__ up the world; someone today cared and wanted you to know this. Enjoy the rest of your day, pretty young lady.”
    About 15 minutes later, the young girl asked for her __51__ and I watched as she was told it was paid for. She asked why? Who? What for? The waitress simply handed her the note and __52__ to her the gentleman who did it left.
    I watched as she slowly read the note. Her eyes tore up, for only a moment, and then came the smile! A huge, beautiful, hopeful smile! She lit up the room and then sat up straight, not __53__ who saw her.
    It’s not __54__ we look or what we have; it’s not our houses or how many cars we have; nor is it how much money we can earn. It’s all about how much we care and what we do, __55__ it’s making someone feel pretty only for a moment.

    Tired of living in the same location but don’t want to leave the house you love? That wouldn’t be a problem if architect Felipe Campolina had his way.
    The Brazilian architect has designed a concept for a home tower consisting of portable, stackable (可叠起堆放的) apartment units, which he says opens up new possibilities for ways of living in the city.
    His design would allow owners to take their home with them when they travel — whether for a weekend away or for longer periods, he said.
    The mobile home tower project is at the concept stage, and it could be years before it is built, if ever at all.
    But if it is realized, it would offer an eco-friendly solution to living in urban areas, Campolina said.
    “We have enough technology to build with fewer materials and minimize (使减至最小) the impact on nature,” he said.
    His vision would call for units with a green roof and walls and a system for recycling water.
    The tower, whose first floor would be built nine meters above ground, would also make it possible to save space in thickly populated areas.
    “It is designed to facilitate (使便利) its application in dense urban centers, where space is very limited,” he said.
    Still just a concept, Campolina — who designed the building for architecture journal eVolo’s Skyscraper Competition — said with enough public interest, it just might become a reality one day.
    小题1:We can learn from the first four paragraphs that the tower _____.
    A．is now being built
    B．is intended for people in the countryside
    C．will be made up of mobile living units
    D．was designed by a US architect
    小题2:Which of the following is TRUE about the home tower?
    A．All its walls will be painted blue.
    B．It will have a waste paper recycling system.
    C．It will be made of recycled rubbish.
    D．It will do little harm to the environment.
    小题3:The building’s first floor would be built high above ground _____.
    A．to save space in crowded citiesB．to make the building attractive
    C．to build the house solidlyD．to fix its units more easily

                                         B
    People come in all shapes and sizes，colors and races (种族). Some speak differently while others act differently.
    My mother is in a wheelchair. I would like to say something about this special woman I call "Mommy".
    My mom does what a mom needs to do every day. She picks me up from school，drives me to meetings，cooks dinner，and helps me with my homework. This is just part of what makes her great，though.
    She is my best friend and can immediately notice when I am unhappy. She helps me solve problems that my friends do not understand. Mommy makes me laugh when times are tough. I look forward to coming home because I know there is someone there who cares about what I have done.
    Mommy has always tried to be like a "normal" mom. But I think my mother is a wonderful woman and she doesn’t need to change. She teaches me life lessons that no teacher or friend can. She shows me how to accept everyone for what is inside，rather than what is on the outside.
    You may have realized that all the qualities (品质) I admire have nothing to do with what she looks like. Everyone could be the way she is，but most are not.
    I want everyone to look beyond the surface and see what is inside others. You may fail to notice someone who is very special like my mom because you cannot accept their outside features.

    When the lazy days of summer arrive and the schedule is packed with swimming，camp，and family vacations，it can be a challenge to find time for learning. But kids’ reading skills don’t have to grow cold once school’s out. Here are some ways to make reading a natural part of their summer fun.
    Explore your library. Visit your local library to check out books and magazines that your kids haven’t seen before. Many libraries have summer reading programs，book clubs，and reading contests for even the youngest borrowers. With a new library card，a child will feel extra grown­up checking out books.
    Read on the road. Going on a long car trip？Make sure the back seat is stocked with favorite reads. When you’re not at the wheel，read the books aloud. Get some audiobooks (many libraries have large selections)and listen to them together during driving time.
    Make your own books. Pick one of your family’s favorite parts of summer—whether it’s baseball，ice cream，or the pool—and have your child draw pictures of it or cut out pictures from magazines. Stick the pictures onto paper to make a booklet and write text for it. When you’re done，read the book together. Reread it whenever you like!
    Keep in touch. Kids don’t have to go away to write about summer vacation. Even if your family stays home，they can send postcards to tell friends and relatives about their adventures. Ask a relative to be your child’s pen pal and encourage them to write each week.
    Keep up the reading habits. Even if everything else changes during the summer，keep up the reading routines around your house. Read with your kids every day—whether it’s just before bedtime or under a shady tree on a lazy afternoon. And don’t forget to take a book to the beach！Just　brush　the sand off the pages—it’s no sweat!
    小题1:The purpose of the passage is to________.
    A．encourage parents to read
    B．give advice on raising kids
    C．raise a good summer reader
    D．suggest places for vacations
    小题2:If you drive on a long trip in summer，you can ________.
    A．visit the local library and join book clubs
    B．borrow some audiobooks to listen to
    C．keep in touch with friends by sending postcards
    D．read your own picture books with your son
    小题3:By saying “Just brush the sand off the pages—it’s no sweat”，the author means ________.
    A．taking away the sand on the book is very difficult
    B．a special book is needed when you’re reading on the beach
    C．one can remove the sand on the book with a brush easily
    D．there’s no trouble reading even on the beach
    小题4:Who are the intended readers of the passage?
    A．Parents.B．Students.
    C．Teachers.D．Editors.

Learning things can be fun if you are willing to work with them.

    根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余项。
    What is your favorite color? Do you like yellow, orange, and red?  71  Do you prefer grays and blues? Then you are probably quiet, shy, and you would rather follow than lead. You tend to be a pessimist（悲观者）. At least, this is what psychologists（心理专家） tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of colors preference, as well as the effect that colors have on human beings.   72 If you happen to love brown, you did so, as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly.
     73  A yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one; and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day.  74  A black bridge over the Thames River, near London, used to be the scene of more suicides than any other bridge in the area ---until it was repainted green. The number of suicide attempts immediately fell sharply; perhaps it would have fallen even more if the bridge had been done in pink or baby blue.
      75 It is an established fact that factory workers work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or grey.
    A．On the other hand, black is depressing.
    B．They tells us that we do not choose our favorite color as we grow up——we are born
    with our preference.
    C．The rooms are painted in different colors as you like.
    D．If you do, you must be an optimist（乐观者）, a leader, an active person who enjoys
    life, people and excitement.
    E. Light and bright colors make people not only happier but more active.
    F. Life is like a picture or a poem, full of different colors.
    G. Colors do influence our moods——there is no doubt about it .

    The world is not coming to an end on December 21st, 2012, the US space agency announced to dispel （消除）widespread rumors fueled by the Internet and a new Hollywood movie．
    The latest big screen 2012 was based on stories according to the Mayan calendar．It showed that by the end of 2012, a Planet X will collide （碰撞） with the earth．
    Some websites accuse NASA of hiding the truth on the planet's existence, but the US space agency considered such stories as tricks．"There is no basis in fact for these claims," NASA said in its website．"If such a collision were real, scientists would have been tracking it for at least the last decade, and we would see it with our eyes now．Obviously, it doesn't exist and there will be no threat to the earth in 2012," it insisted．"After all, our planet has been getting along just well for more than four billion years," added NASA．
    There is another planet, Eris, floating in space．But the small planet will remain safely fixed in the outer solar system and it can come no closer than four billion miles to the earth, according to NASA．
    And even if the planets were to line up as some have forecast, the effect on our plant would be very little．"And while comets and asteroids （小行星） have always hit the earth, big hits are very rare," NASA noted．The last major collision was believed to be 65 million years ago, resulting the end of dinosaurs （恐龙）．
    "We are sure that there are no threatening asteroids as large as the one that killed the dinosaurs," the space agency said．
