One day, three people rushed in and grabbed(抓住) food off the shelves as fast as they could, __39__ not intending to pay for it.

It was obvious that they were homeless, and equally obvious that they weren"t going __41__ with their illgotten(非法获得的) gains. They __42__ the food and simply crowded together in panic(惊慌地)—knowing the police were __43__ the way. Imagine what they must have felt like when they were told they didn"t have to steal if they were that __44__. “We have food in the back, expired (到期)but still __45__ to eat. If you need food, you __46__ have some.” They were told to __47__ what they had dropped and put it back, and then asked to straighten out(清理) the mess. They were doing just that __48__ the police arrived. The officers were told the situation was under control and the police were no longer __49__. This wasn"t what they had __50__. They were being treated as human beings who could right the wrong they"d done. Shocked, they quickly followed orders to take turns and use the restroom to clean up. Soon three __51__ people walked out with all the __52__ their arms could hold. They were __53__ that,if they needed to come back again, they were to ask and not just grab. And then the young man went back to read until the next customer came in. He would be the __54__ person in the world to claim he was a hero. But he gave three people something they were in desperate need of—a __55__amount of selfrespect and a little bit of hope.

A few years ago, an Englishman called Roy Jones went on holiday to a small seaside town in the west of England. He was swimming in the sea one day when, as he opened his mouth, his false teeth fell out and floated away. The following year, Mr. Jones returned to the same town. As he was having dinner in a local café one evening, he mentioned the story of his lost teeth to the manager. The manager looked surprised. He explained that he had found a set of false teeth on the beach last month. Then he asked Roy Jones if he wanted to try them on. “OK”, said Mr. Jones. “I suppose it won’t do any harm.” When the manager brought him the teeth, Mr. Jones put them into his mouth, and laughed and laughed. They were his. In 1987, an American couple called Jane and Robert Bentley went for a picnic on a beach in California. When they returned home, Mrs. Bentley realized that she had lost her wedding ring. It wasn’t a lot of money but it was valuable to Jane Bentley. The Bentleys drove straight back to the beach, and searched for the ring for three hours, but could not find it. A few months later, Mr. Bentley went fishing off the same beach. As he pulled a large crab out of the sea, he noticed that there was something attached to one of its claws. It was his wife’s wedding ring! At the end of the 19th century, a young woman called Rose Harcourt was on her honeymoon in Barmouth, North Wales, when she lost a gold bracelet her husband had given her as a wedding gift.

Twenty-five years later, the Harcourts returned to Barmouth to celebrate their wedding anniversary.

There was once a farmer. His land was hilly and the soil was not the best. He had a cow that wasn’t giving much milk and he had chickens who were laying few eggs. The place looked run-down (破败的) and the barn and fences (篱笆) needed repair. The farmer and his wife felt dejected. One stormy evening, a poorly-dressed man knocked on their door, asking if he could get shelter for the night. They shared the food that had been prepared, while they talked a great deal about the farm. When the stranger left the following morning, he thanked the farmer and his wife and pulled a little bag of gold pieces out of his pocket. He said that maybe this would help them. He added that he’d come by next year with hopes of finding a revived farm. After this, the farmer and his wife often talked about whether they should buy a more promising cow. Other times they considered whether they should buy chickens who laid more eggs. However, every conversation ended with the farmer trusting the farm would improve as he found himself fixing the barn and the fences, caring for the animals, preparing food for themselves and their animals. The farmer beamed (眉开眼笑) when the stranger did come by again a year later. Everything looked so much better. The stranger asked, “What did you use the gold for?” The farmer said, “We hid the gold under a kitchen tile (地砖) and, while we often thought of it, we never did think of anything we needed the gold for.” Then the farmer added thoughtfully, “I do thank you, though, ever so much. You gave us what we really needed to keep going — you lifted our spirits.” Saying that, the farmer removed the tile and cheerfully returned the gold to the stranger. 小题1:The underlined word “dejected” in Paragraph 1 probably means “_____”.

A.land rich enough to farm on | B.something to keep their spirits up | C.scientific knowledge of agriculture | D.money to improve his farm |

Twenty-six years after a terrible bicycle accident left her comatose(昏迷) for two months and with permanent brain injuries, Barbara Buchan, performs many actions more slowly than others. But on September 10 in Beijing, Buchan, at 52, the oldest member of the United States Paralympic team, broke the record and won the gold medal for her disability class in the individual 3,000-meter cycling pursuit. “You can be very upset at the world and have everyone take care of you,” Buchan said by telephone from Beijing, “or get back on your feet again.” Buchan first dreamed of Olympic gold at age 15 while watching the 1972 Munich Games. She became a top American cyclist by July 1982, when a terrible road-race crash injured her brain and left doctors doubtful about whether she would survive. She was wearing only a soft leather helmet at the time; her accident made the rule put into practice that cyclists wear the hard-shell helmets that are now common. Buchan recovered enough of her athletic ability to run track in the 1988 Paralympics in Seoul, where she won a silver medal in the 800 meters. Women’s cycling was not included in the Paralympics yet, so Buchan trained to the point where she raced against men in the 2000 Paralympics in Sydney, Australia — she finished 9th and 10th in two races — and then successfully fought for a separate women’s cycling program beginning in 2004 in Athens, where she did not get a medal. Even though she was approaching her 50s, Buchan kept racing and again made the United States Paralympic team for Beijing — where she is twice the age of most of her teammates and competitors. “Barbara’s almost the leader of our team — she’s been through it all,” said Craig Griffin, the United States cycling coach. “She’s never retired. She’s never let her body go and then come back. I don’t think age is as big of a deal as people make it out to be.” 小题1:According to the passage, after the accident, ____________.A.Buchan asked her friends to take care of her | B.cyclists started to wear helmets in competition | C.Buchan could not answer questions correctly | D.doctors doubted whether Buchan could come back to life | 小题2:What’s the right order of the events related to Buchan? a. She won a gold medal in Beijing. b. She became a top American cyclist. c. She won a silver medal in the 800 meters. d. She suffered a terrible bicycle accident. e. She took part in a cycling program in Athens.A.c-d-b-a-e | B.b-c-d-a-e | C.b-d-c-e-a | D.c-b-d-e-a | 小题3:What does the underlined phrase “get back on your feet” in the second paragraph mean?A.rise to your feet | B.walk on your way | C.go beyond yourself | D.depend on yourself | 小题4:Which of the following can be the best title for this passage?A.The Making of a Hero | B.From a Loser to a Winner | C.All Roads Lead to Rome | D.Health is Better than Wealth |

Helen Keller was born in America in June, 1880. Everything was all right when she was born. But when she was 19 months old, an attack of fever left her blind and deaf for the rest of her life. She was so young when she became blind that as she grew older she did not remember being able to see; and she became deaf before she had any idea of the importance of human speech. She lived in darkness and silence. As she grew older, she, too, wanted to express her ideas and feelings. But she realized she was cut off from others. Her parents were greatly worried. How could anyone make touch with Helen’s mind and intelligence in darkness and silence without speech? Helen was nearly seven before a teacher was found. Her name was Miss Sullivan.

As Helen grew up, she became an able student, passed examination and finally took a university degree in English literature. She then devoted all herself to helping the blind and the deaf.
