When I was growing up, I was embarrassed to be seen with my father. He was badly crippled (跛脚), and when we would walk together, his hand on my arm for balance, people would stare, I would be ashamed of the unwanted attention. If ever noticed or bothered, he never let on.
It was difficult to walk together—and because of that, we didn’t say much as we went along. But as we started out, he always said, “You set the pace. I will try to follow you.”
Our usual walk was to or from the subway, which was how he got to work. He went to work sick, and even in bad weather. He almost never missed a day, and would make it to the office even if others could not. It was a matter of pride for him.
When snow or ice was on the ground, it was impossible for him to walk, even with help... Such times my sister or I would pull him through the streets of Brooklyn, N.Y., on a child’s sleigh to the subway entrance. Once there, he would try to grasp handrail until he reached the lower steps that the warmer tunnel air kept ice free. In Manhattan the subway station was the basement of his office building, and he would not have to go outside again until we met him in Brooklyn on his way home. w.w.w.k.s.5.u.c.o.m
When I think of it now, I am surprised at how much courage it must have taken for a grown man to suffer from shame and disability. And I am also surprised at how he did it—without bitterness or complaint.
He never talked about himself as an object of pity, not did he show any envy of the more fortunate or able. What he looked for in others was a “good heart”, and if he found one, the owner was good enough for him.
Now that I am older, I believe that is a proper standard by which to judge people, even though I still don’t know exactly what a “good heart” is. But I know the times I don’t have one myself.
He has been away for many years now, but I think of him often. I wonder if he sensed my reluctance to be seen with him during our walks. If he did, I am sorry I never told him how sorry I was, how unworthy I was, how I regretted it. I think of him when I complain about my troubles, when I am envious of another’s good fortune, when I don’t have a “good heart”.
【小题1】How did the man treat his father when he was young?

A.He helped his father happily.B.He never helped his father.
C.He helped his father, but not very happily.D.He only helped his father take a walk after supper.
【小题2】As a disabled man, his father____.
A.didn’t work very hardB.didn’t go to work from time to time
C.hated those who had good fortuneD.was happy and satisfied, and never lost hope
【小题3】What does the underlined word “reluctance” mean in the article? It means ____.
A.angerB.sadnessC.happinessD.unwillingness
【小题4】How did the father get to work usually?
A.By subway. B.By bus. C.By wheelchair. D.By bike

Marie and Michael had been dating for some time, and felt fortunate that even though they had different jobs, they were able to talk with each other through their work almost every day. Michael is a police officer, and Marie is a “911” dispatcher(调度员), both working for the same police department.

       One day, Marie received a call from Michael who said he was out on the road in his patrol car.

       “Marie, would you do me a favor?”

       “Sure,” Marie answered, happy to have an excuse to talk to him.

       “Could you check a license plate for me? I need to see if this guy has any unpaid warrants(罚单).” Michael explained.

       “Okay, spell it for me.”

       Michael phonetically spelled out the license plate, using code names, as all police officers do, so Marie would be sure to get the right letter:

       William Ida Lincoln Lincoln

       Young Ocean Union

       Mary Adam Robert Robert Young

       Mary Edward

       As she did hundreds of times a day, Marie wrote down the letters on a piece of paper, typed them into her computer, and started to run the license check. At first, she was puzzled. This license plate number was too long,even for a personalized plate. Her coworkers, who were in on Michael’s “plan”, finally had to say, “Marie, what do those letters spell?”

       This time, Marie read just the first letters of each word out loud:W-I-L-L Y-O-U M-A-R-R-Y M-E?

       With a cry of joy, Marie was all smiles as she got back on the phone to Michael, who was obviously not following any imaginary “driver” with the fictitious plates but was anxiously waiting in his patrol car for her response.

       “Michael, are you there?” Marie began. “Yes, Marie?” he responded, his voice cracking a bit with nervousness.

       “My answer is: yes!”

There was no “copping out”(回避) on this proposal!

56.Michael asked Marie to check a license plate for him because          .

       A.he was too busy to check out the identity of the driver himself

       B.he wanted to ask her to marry him in this way

       C.Michael needed the information urgently

       D.Michael didn’t have access to a computer at that time

57.According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?

       A.Marie didn’t find the meaning of the letters at first.

       B.Michael had difficulty in finding the owner of the license plate.

       C.Marie’s co – workers intended to play a joke on her.

       D.Michael was asking Marie for help.

58.We can learn from the passage           .

       A.Marie found the owner of the plate with the help of her coworkers

       B.Michael was following a suspicious driver that day

       C.Marie was not good at license check

       D.Marie understood Michael’s intention at last

59.The underlined word “proposal” in the last paragraph probably means         .

       A.suggestion              B.marriage offer         C.plan                        D.purpose

     When the two tiny ducklings were caught by the sharp jaws of a larger German shepherd, they must have
thought their time on earth was up.
     But as luck would have it for the frightened wild ducklings that had lost their mother, the dog that helped
them out of the bushes had only their best interests at heart. Duke, a one-year-old German shepherd, found the
two ducklings hidden in long grass next to his owner's workplace on the edge of the Thronybankw.w.^
Industrial Estate in Dalkeith.
     And despite the natural instincts of a hunter, the dog gently took them in its mouth and carried them back
to his blanket, putting them down where it was warm and even washing them clean with his tongue. The
ducklings will be looked after by staff at the center until they are old enough to be released into the wild.
      "This dog is a modern day Rin Tin Tin, ( the world's most famous German shepherd dog) and to pick
them up in his mouth without harming them is quite something."To them try and wash them is just amazing
behavior." said one of the staff.
