  Andrea had never seen an old lady hitchhiking before.However, the weather and the coming darkness made her feel sorry for the lady.The old lady climbed in through the car door, and pushed her big brown shopping bag down under her feet.She said in almost a whisper,“Thank you, dear-I’m just going to Brockbourne.”

  Something in the way the lady spoke made Andrea uneasy about this strange hitchhiker.She didn’t know why, but she felt instinctively(直觉上)that there was something wrong, something…dangerous.But how could an old lady be dangerous?It was strange.

  Careful not to turn her head, Andrea looked sideways at her passenger.She studied the hat, the dirty collar of the dress, the shapeless body, the arms with their thick black hairs

  Thick black hairs?

  Hairy arms?Andrea’s blood froze.

  This wasn’t a woman.

  At first, she didn’t know what to do.Then suddenly, an idea came into her racing, terrified brain.Swinging the wheel suddenly, she threw the car into a skid(侧滑),and brought it to a stop.

  “My god!”she shouted,“A child!I think I hit her!”The“old lady”was clearly shaken by the sudden skid,“I didn’t see anything, dear,”she said.“I don’t think you hit anything.”

  “I am sure it was a child!”insisted Andrea.“Could you just get out and have a look?”She held her breath.Would her plan work?

  It did.The passenger slowly climbed out to have a look.Hardly was she out of the car, Andrea drove madly away, and soon she put a good three miles between herself and the awful hitchhiker.

  It was only then that she thought about the bag.Maybe the bag would provide some information about what she was.Pulling into the side of the road, Andrea opened the heavy bag curiously.

  It contained only one item-a small hand axe, with a sharp blade.The axe, and the inside of the bag, were covered with the dark red stains of dried blood.

  Andrea began to scream.

When my grandfather died, my 83-year-old grandmother, once so full of life, slowly began to fade. No longer able to manage a home of her own, she moved in with my mother, where she was visited often by other members of her large, loving family. Although she still had her good days, it was often hard to arouse her interest.

But one chilly December afternoon three years ago, my daughter Meagan, then eight, and I were visiting her, when she noticed that Meagan was carrying her favorite doll.“I, too, had a special doll when I was a little girl,” she told a wide-eyed Meagan. “I got it one Christmas when I was about your age. I lived in an old farmhouse in Maine, with Mom, Dad and my four sisters, and the very first gift I opened that Christmas was the most beautiful doll you’d ever want to see.”

“She had an exquisite(优美的,高雅的), hand-painted face, and her long brown hair was pulled back with a big pink bow. Her eyes were blue, and they opened and closed. I remember she had a body of kidskin, and her arms and legs bent at the joints.”

GG’s voice dropped low, taking on an almost respectful tone. “My doll was dressed in a pretty pink gown, decorated with fine lace. … Getting such a fine doll was like a miracle for a little farm girl like me — my parents must have had to sacrifice so much to afford it But how happy I was that morning!”

GG’s eyes filled and her voice shook with emotion as she recalled that Christmas of long ago. “I played with my doll all morning long. And then it happened. My mother called us to the dining room for Christmas dinner and I laid my new doll down gently on the hall table. But as I went to join the family at the table, I heard a loud crash.”

“I hardly had to turn around — I knew it was my precious doll. And it was. Her lace skirt had hung down from the table just enough for my baby sister to reach up and pull on it. When I ran in, there lay my beautiful doll on the floor, her face smashed into a dozen pieces. She was gone forever.”

A few years later, GG’s baby sister was also gone, she told Meagan, a victim of pneumonia(肺炎). Now the tears in her eyes spilled over — tears, I knew, not only for a lost doll and a lost sister, but for a lost time.

Subdued(沉默的) for the rest of the visit, Meagan was no sooner in the car going home than she exclaimed, “Mom, I have a great idea! Let’s get GG a new doll for Christmas. Then she won’t cry when she thinks about it.”

My heart filled with pride as I listened to my sympathetic little daughter. But where would we find a doll to match GG’s fond memories?

Where there’s a will, as they say, there’s a way. When I told my best friends, Liz and Chris, about my problem, Liz put me in touch with a local doll-make. From a doll supply house I ordered a long brown hair and a kidskin body to copy the outfit GG had so lovingly described. Liz volunteered to put the doll together, and Chris helped me make the doll’s outfit. Meagan wrote the story of the lost doll by giving examples.

Finally our creation was finished. To our eyes it was perfect. But there was no way it could be exactly like the doll GG had loved so much and lost. Would she think it looked anything like it?

On Christmas Eve, Meagan and I carried our happily packed gift to GG, where she sat surrounded by children, parents, aunts, uncles and cousins. “It’s for you,” Meagan said, “but first you have to read the story that goes with it.”

GG no sooner got through the first page than her voice cracked and she was unable to go on, but Meagan took over where she left off. Then it was time to open her present.

I’ll never forget the look on GG’s face as she lifted the doll and held it to her chest. Once again her tears fell, but this time they were tears of joy. Holding the doll in her frail arms, she repeated over and over again, “She’s exactly like my old doll, exactly like her.”

And perhaps she wasn't saying that just to be kind. Perhaps however impossible it seemed, we had managed to produce a close copy of the doll she remembered. But as I watched my eight-year-old daughter and her great-grandmother examining the doll together, I thought of a likelier explanation. What GG really recognized, perhaps, was the love that inspired the gift. And love, wherever it comes from, always looks the same.

60. GG moved in with her daughter because ______.

  A. she wanted to live with a large family

  B. she was not able to live on her own due to her weakness

  C. her husband passed away

  D. she thought it was the children’s obligation to take care of her

61. Why did GG become very emotional on a December afternoon?

  A. Because she saw her great granddaughter’s doll.

  B. Because she recalled her long deceased parents.

  C. Because she was surrounded by her offspring.

  D. Because she felt lonely during the Christmas season.

62. What can we infer from the underlined sentence in paragraph 4?

  A. GG’s doll was important and was a symbol of many things.

  B. GG showed great respect for his husband’s love.

  C. GG missed the great old days she spent with her family

  D. GG was grateful for her long life.

63. What happened to GG’s baby sister?

  A. She envied her sister all her life.

  B. She felt guilty for breaking GG’s doll and decided to go.

  C. She left home at a young age.

  D. She died of some disease at a young age.

64. Why did Meagan’s mum feel proud of her daughter?

  A. Because she was clever.                   B. Because she was loving.

  C. Because she was amiable.               D. Because she was imaginative.

65. This passage implies that ______.

A. treating the elderly well is moral

B. it is impossible to copy the exact doll for the elderly

C. love, the permanent rhythm of life, will always remain in the elderly’s heart

D. physical comfort from children rather than psychological care is important

  When I was in the third grade, I was picked to be the princess(公主)in the school play.For weeks my mother had helped me practice my lines.But once onstage, every word disappeared from my head.Then my teacher told me she had written a narrator’s(解说者的)part for the play, and asked me to change roles.Though I didn’t tell my mother what had happened that day, she sensed my unhappiness and asked if I wanted to take a walk in the yard.

  It was a lovely spring day.We could see dandelion(蒲公英)popping through the grass in bunches, as if a painter had touched our landscape with bits of gold.I watched my mother carelessly bend down by one of the bunches.“I think I am going to dig up all these weeds, ” she said.“From now on, we’ll have only roses in this garden.”

  “But I like dandelions.” I protested.“All flowers are beautiful-even dandelions!” My mother looked at me seriously.“Yes, every flower gives pleasure in its own way, doesn’t it?” she asked thoughtfully.I nodded.“And that is true of people, too,” she added.

  When I realized that she had guessed my pain, I started to cry and told her the truth.

  “But you will be a beautiful narrator,” she said, reminding me of how much I loved to read stories aloud to her.

  Over the next few weeks, with her continuous encouragement, I learned to take pride in the role.The big day finally came.A few minutes before the play, my teacher came over to me.“Your mother asked me to give this to you, ” she said, handing me a dandelion.After the play, I took home the flower, laughing that I was perhaps the only person who would keep such a weed.

  Like most people, I’ve long understood that I will be judged by.www.ks5u.commy occupation, that my profession is a standard people use to see how smart or talented I am.Recently, however, I was disappointed to see that it also decides how I’m treated as a person.

  Last year I left a professional position as a small-town reporter and took a job waiting tables.As someone paid to serve food to people, I had customers say and do things to me I suspect they’d never say or do to their most casual acquaintances(泛泛之交).One night a man talking on his cell phone waved me away, then asked me back with his finger minutes later, complaining he was ready to order and asking where I’d been.

  I had waited tables during summers in college and was treated like a peon(勤杂工)by plenty of people.But at 19 years old, I believed I deserved inferior treatment from professional adults.Besides, people responded to me differently after I told them I was in college.Customers would joke that one day I’d be sitting at their table, waiting to be served.

  Once I graduated, I took a job at a community newspaper.From my first day, I heard a respectful tone from everyone who called me.I assumed this was the way the professional world worked.

  I soon found out differently.I sat several feet away from an advertising sales representative with a similar name.Our calls would often get mixed up and someone asking for Kristen would be transferred to Christie.The mistake was immediately evident.Perhaps it was because money was involved, but people used a tone with Kristen that they never used with me..www.ks5u.com

  My job title made people treat me politely.So it was a shock to return to the restaurant industry.

  It’s no secret that there’s a lot to put up with when waiting tables, and fortunately, much of it can be easily forgotten when you pocket the tips.The service industry, by definition, exists to satisfy others’ needs.Still, it seemed that many of my customers didn’t get the difference between server and servant.

  I’m now applying to graduate school, which means someday I’ll return to a profession where people need to be nice to me in order to get what they want.I think I’ll take them to dinner first, and see how they treat someone whose only job is to serve them.
