My grandfather went to high school in the 1920s. While in school, he became       in the drama program, acting in various productions. He       in touch with his drama teacher.
My father went to high school in the 1960s. Like his      before him, he acted in high school. He, too,stayed in touch with his drama teacher for the rest of the teacher's       I graduated in 1997. When Hoover, my drama teacher, was      in Alaska, I didn't want her to feel like she was ending her life     , so I sent her many packages, including Drama Club yearbook photos from each year she      there in order that she could see the students whose lives she forever     .
Her nickname for our group of Drama Club was "the Throwaway Kids".      , no? She described us as that       we were nonconformists (不墨守成规者) that other teachers didn't         know what to do with. She simply      us for who we are, and that was exactly what we needed.
We have all become       members of society: reporters, lawyers, and singers, soldiers, doctors and, you guessed it, teachers. Every member of my family is a teacher. This year        the 73rd year we have taught in Alaska altogether.
      me, teaching the course is only one important part of the     job. As I returned to my classroom just before the final bell      on the last day of school in May, I thought how the most emotional part of the experience will not be seeing the recent       return to say "hello" at Christmas. That was how the     of keeping in touch with our teachers our whole life long began in my family. Honestly, learning      a lifetime.

Are you sometimes a little tired and sleepy in the early afternoon? Many people feel this way after lunch. They may think that eating lunch is the cause of the sleepiness. Or, in summer, they may think it is the heat. However, the real reason lies inside their bodies. At that time – about eight hours after you wake up – your body temperature goes down. This is what makes you slow down and feel sleepy. Scientists have tested sleep habits in experiments where there was no night or day. The people in these experiments almost always followed a similar sleeping pattern. They slept for one long period and then for one short period about eight hours later.
In many parts of the world, people take naps(小睡) in the middle of the day. This is especially true in warmer climates(气候), where the heat makes work difficult in the early afternoon. Researchers are now saying that naps are good for everyone in any climate. A daily nap gives one a more rested body and mind and therefore is good for health in general. In countries where naps are traditional (传统的), people often suffer less from problem such as heart disease.
Many working people, unfortunately, have no time to take naps. Though doctors may advise taking naps, employers do not allow it! If you do have the chance, however, here are a few tips about making the most of your nap. Remember that the best time to take a nap is about eight hours after you get up. A short sleep too late in the day may only make you feel more tired and sleepy afterward. This can slao happen if you sleep for too long. If you do not have enough time, try a short nap – even ten minutes of sleep can be helpful.
小题1:Why do people feel sleepy in the early afternoon according to the text?
A.They eat too much for lunch.
B.They sleep too little at night.
C.Their body temperature becomes lower.
D.The weather becomes a lot warmer.
小题2:If you get up at 6:30 am, what is the best time for you to take a nao?
A.About 12:30 pm.B.About 1:30 pm.
C.About 2:30 pmD.About 3:30 pm
小题3:What would be the best title for the text?

On Saturday, Feb 12, 2000, two things happened that changed my life.
First of all, my baby sister got married. She was 26 this day, and yet to me she was still my baby sister.
I was happy, but also sad. Gone were the days of me bossing(支使) her around. My bossy behavior had once earned me the nickname Lucy. If you’re a fan of Peanuts, then you can clearly imagine my behavior as an older sister.
At one point, I left the wedding reception to get some air. I went outside and walked to a nearby playground. I’m not sure how long I sat there before my sister came and joined me. We talked about how we were both grown up. As she wiped a tear from my eye, she lovingly said, “You’ll always be Lucy to me.” We hugged.
Then, my cousin Mike walked over to tell us that it was time to cut the cake, and the second thing that changed my life that day came to pass.
“Hey, did you guys hear that Charles Schulz died today?” he said casually – as if it were no big deal. Then he took my sister’s arm and they turned to head back to the reception hall. “Coming?” they asked. “In a minute,” I replied, and I sat back down on the bench, dizzy from what Mike had just told me.
How could Charles Schulz be dead? He was my creator! He was almost like a father to me!
I had lost so many things on that day. My innocence had slipped away like a thief in the night. It was gone before I could do anything about it, taking with it all the treasures that I had held in my heart. I felt myself grow up in an instant. I saw, for the first time, what I really was – a 30-year-old woman with a husband of my own, and soon, a child of my own.
I took a deep breath and stood up from the bench. I turned and headed back to the hall, hoping I hadn’t missed the cutting of the cake. It was the day that my sister grew wings of her own and left the nest – the day that Lucy died, and I was born.
小题1:Why did the author feel sad at her sister’s wedding?
A.She was afraid of change.
B.Her sister was getting ready to move far away from her.
C.Her wonderful childhood with her sister had become a thing of the past.
D.She had nobody to turn to for help with housework.
小题2:When the author’s cousin told her that Charles Schulz had died, she __________.
A.felt a great sense of loss
B.burst into tears
C.thought he was joking
D.got angry at him for his attitude
小题3:What is implied when the author says that “Lucy died, and I was born”?
A.The author has realized how her sister must have felt about her and decided to change.
B.Lucy no longer matters to the author.
C.The author doesn’t like the nickname Lucy anymore.
D.The author is no longer sad and ready to face the fact that she is an adult.
小题4:The best title of the passage can be __________.
A.Two things changing my life
B.My baby sister’s wedding
C.Not Lucy anymore
D.Not innocent anymore

I have been blessed with the opportunity in my life. It took the near-death experience of my dad to make me realize that my purpose in life is to        others. My dad suffered from leukemia(白血病) in 1998.        the pain and treatment that he put up with inspired me to be a more kind and        person. I realized life is just too          and it was time for me to make some changes — do the things in life that I wanted to do without making        why I couldn’t do them.
My dad        a bone marrow transplant(骨髓移植) operation, and after that he was able to reuse his own “cleaned” marrow, so a donor(捐献者) was not needed. That was excellent        because donors who are a match are hard to come by. That          me to become a bone marrow donor and hopefully help someone else one day. I also         money for the cancer patients. Yet, I was not satisfied with just that. I had to do more, I        blood every other month and seek opportunities to do other acts of kindness daily. The opportunity, some days, presents itself very        and some days I have to seek it out. Either way, it comes.
I would like to        one of my favorite quotes(名言)with you all:
“In an average lifetime, a person        about sixty-five thousand miles. That’s two and half times around the world. I wonder        your steps will take you. I wonder how you’ll use the rest of the        you’re given.”
I want to use my miles to create foot prints of love in this world.

A couple were having a wedding. All of their friends and family came to see the lovely    and all had a wonderful time. The bride was      in her white wedding gown and the groom was very handsome. Everyone could tell that the love they had for each other was true.
A few months later, the wife came to the husband with a    , “Each of us will write a list of things we find a bit    with the other person. Then, we can talk about how we can    them and make our lives happier.” The husband agreed. So they went to think of the things that annoyed them about the other.
The next morning, at the breakfast table, they decided they would go over their   .
“I’ll start,” said the wife. She took out her list. It had many items on it, enough to fill three pages. In fact, as she started reading the list of the little annoyances, she noticed that tears were starting to appear in her husband's eyes.
“What’s wrong?” she asked. “Nothing.” the husband replied,“   reading your list.”
The wife continued to read until she had read all three    to her husband.
“Now, it’s your turn and then we’ll talk about the things on both of our lists.” she said happily.
      the husband stated,“I don’t have anything on my list. I think you are    the way that you are. I don’t want you to change anything for me.”
The wife    by his honesty and the depth of his love for her and his acceptance of her, turned her head and wept.
In life, there are enough times when we are disappointed, depressed and annoyed. We don’t really have to go looking for them. We have a wonderful world that is full of beauty, light and promise. Why waste time seeking the bad, disappointing or annoying when we can look around us, and see the     things before us?

September is an exciting month in every college freshman’s life. For many, it’s the first time that they’ve left home to live in a new environment. But after the hustle and bustle of a few weeks, excitement gives way to a less enjoyable emotion— homesickness.
Homesickness manifests itself in many ways. You may miss mum’s cooking, your pets, or even your old bed. All this becomes a fond memory of the past. Homesickness can be a bitter feeling for many students, especially when faced with the challenges of settling into an unfamiliar environment.
But remember, you’re not alone. According to a recent BBC article, 70 percent of British college students experience homesickness. In this increasingly globalized world in which people migrate to faraway places for a relationship, education or work, homesickness is a feeling shared by many adults.
Homesickness can have similar symptoms to depression and in extreme cases it can develop into a panic attack. As for the term, homesickness or nostalgia wasn’t invented until the 17th century. It was considered a disorder by a Swiss physician, who attributed soldiers’ mental and physical discomfort to their longing to return home, “nostos” from Greek, and the accompanying pain, “algos”.
Studies in recent years, however, have shown that nostalgia may have some benefits to our mental health. After a decade of surveys and researches, Constantine Sedikides, a US social psychologist, found that nostalgia is what makes us human. He explains that nostalgia can resist loneliness, boredom and anxiety. Therefore, it’s necessary for college students to learn some ways to overcome the uncomfortable feeling.
小题1: From the first two paragraphs, we can infer that __________.
A.homesickness means a fond memory of the past
B.only a few students will experience homesickness
C.homesickness is an enjoyable emotion among freshmen
D.college freshmen usually suffer from homesickness after weeks
小题2:According to the passage, we can know that _________.
A.homesickness may cause mental diseases
B.homesickness is a feeling only shared by adults
C.homesickness won’t do any good to our health
D.homesickness is also called nostalgia in Switzerland
小题3:What is most likely to be discussed in the paragraph that follows?
A.some benefits about homesickness
B.other problems in college freshmen’s life
C.how to make campus life more meaningful
D.some tips on how to cope with homesickness
小题4:The attitude of Sedikides towards homesickness is _________.
A.negativeB.supportiveC.skepticalD.critical
小题5:What is the best title for the passage?
A.Let’s embrace homesickness
B.How to fit into the college life
C.A harmful emotion—homesickness
D.The disadvantages of homesickness
