7.My grandparents were married for over half a century,and played their own special game the time they had met each other.The goal of their game was to write the word"shmily"in a surprise place for the other to find.They took turns leaving"shmily"around the house,and as soon as one of them discovered it,it was their turn to hide it once more.They dragged"shmily"with their fingers through the sugar and flour containers to await whoever was preparing the next meal."Shmily"was written in the steam left on the mirror after a hot shower,where it would reappear bath after bath.There was no end to the places where"shmily"would pop up.Little notes with"shmily"were found on car seats,or taped to steering wheels.The notes were put inside shoes and left under pillows."Shmily"was written in the dust upon the mantel(壁炉架)and traced in the ashes of the fireplace.This mysterious word was as much a part of my grandparents'house as the furniture.
It took me a long time before I was able to fully appreciate my grandparents'game.Skepticism has kept me from believing in true love-one that is pure and lasting.However,I never doubted my grandparents'relationship.It was based on passionate(热情的)affection which not everyone is lucky enough to experience.
But there was a dark cloud in my grandparents'life:my grandmother had breast cancer.The disease had first appeared ten years earlier.As always,Grandpa was with her every step of the way.He comforted her in their yellow room,painted that way so that she could always be surrounded by sunshine,even when she was too sick to go outside.But my grandmother grew steadily weaker until,finally,she could not leave the house anymore.Then one day,what we all feared finally happened.Grandma was gone.
"Shmily."It was written in yellow on the pink ribbons of my grandmother's funeral bouquet(花束).As the crowd thinned and the last mourners turned to leave,Grandpa stepped up to my grandmother's coffin and,taking a shaky breath,he began to sing to her.Through his tears and grief,the song came;S-h-m-i-l-y:See How Much I Love You.
56.Where may the word"shmily"be found?A
a.in the flour containers          b.on the mirror
c.on the sheet of toilet paper     d.on pillows
e.on the furniture
A.a,b         B.b,c         C.a,d         D.b,e
57.The author tells us in the first paragraphB
A.what the word"shmily"means
B.how the special game was played
C.how the author felt about her grandparents'game
D.how her grandparents cared for each other
58.The underlined phrase"pop up"in Paragraph 1 meansA
A.appear           B.change           C.survive      D.work
59.It can be seen from the passage that the authorC.
A.thought the game was meaningless
B.believes everyone can experience true love
C.doubted the existence of true love at first
D.sometimes left"shmily"around the house
60.Grandpa tried to make Grandma comfortable byC.
A.singing songs to her every day
B.painting the room yellow
C.encouraging her to go outside
D.helping her take a hot shower every day.

6.Patti Page,the top-selling female artist of the 1950s with more than 100 million records sold,died on January 2nd,2013,when she was 85.She was one of the most beloved singers of the post-war era.Take her Tennessee Waltz for example; it sold more than 10 milllion copies and was her biggest hit.
Born in Claremore,Oklahoma,a small town near Tulsa,Page originally dreamed of a career in commercial art.Her first job in the art department at a local radio station soon led to performing on her own 15-minute program.
At age 20,Page was discovered by big-band leader Jack Rael,who quit his job to become her manager.In 1948,she signed her first recording contract with Mercury Records and two years later enjoyed her first hit record.She stayed with Mercury for the next 14 years and recorded hit after hit including:"With My Eyes Wide Open,I'm Dreaming",and"Old Cape cod".
Her last hit was"Hush…Hush,Sweet Charlotte",recorded for the Bette Davis movie of the same name.And then,there was"Doggie In The Window".The creative tune was a huge hit,but with its repeated barking sounds and silly lyrics(歌词),the song has been used by many people as an example of all that was wrong with pop music in the early 1950s.
Throughout the 1950s,Patti Page made regular appearances on television variety shows and in 1957 she was chosen to host the musical program,"The Big Record".The following year,Page appeared in her own CBS television series,"The Patti Page Show".She continued to record and perform into the 21st century,most recently releasing an album of songs for children,a Christmas record,and a new"best of"collection.

5.I lost my sight when I was four years old by falling off a box car in a freight yard in Atlantic City and landing on my head.Now I am thirty-two.I can slightly remember the brightness of sunshine and what color red is.It would be wonderful to see again,but a calamity(灾难)can do strange things to people.It occurred to me the other day that I might not have come to love life as I do if I hadn't been blind.I believe in life now.I am not so sure that I would have believed in it so deeply,otherwise.I don't mean that I would prefer to go without my eyes.I simply mean that the loss of them made me appreciate the more what I had left.
Life,I believe,asks a continuous series of adjustments to reality.The more readily a person is able to make these adjustments,the more meaningful his own private world becomes.The adjustment is never easy.I was totally confused and afraid.But I was lucky.My parents and my teachers saw something in me-a potential to live,you might call it-which I didn't see,and they made me want to fight it out with blindness.
The hardest lesson I had to learn was to believe in myself.That was basic.If I hadn't been able to do that,I would have collapsed and become a chair rocker on the front porch for the rest of my life.When I say belief in myself I am not talking about simply the kind of self confidence that helps me down an unfamiliar staircase alone.That is part of it.But I mean something bigger than that:an assurance that I am,despite imperfections,a real,positive person; that somewhere in the sweeping,intricate(错综复杂的) pattern of people there is a special place where I can make myself fit.
It took me years to discover and strengthen this assurance.It had to start with the simplest things.Once a man gave me an indoor baseball.I thought he was making fun of me and I was hurt."I can't use this."I said."Take it with you,"he urged me,"and roll it around."The words stuck in my head."Roll it around!"By rolling the ball I could hear where it went.This gave me an idea how to achieve a goal I had thought impossible:playing baseball.At Philadelphia's Overbrook School for the blind I invented a successful variation of baseball.We called it ground ball.
All my life I have set ahead of me a series of goals and then tried to reach them,one at a time.I had to learn my limitations.It was no good trying for something that I knew at the start was wildly out of reach because that only invited the bitterness of failure.I would fail sometimes anyway but on the average I made progress.
