Over the next four years, Kyle and I became best friends. When we were seniors, we began to think about college. Kyle 小题1: on Georgetown, and I was going to Duke. I knew that we would always be 小题2: and that the miles would never be a problem. Kyle was 小题3: to prepare a speech for graduation.
Graduation day, I saw Kyle. I could see that he was 小题4: about his speech. So, I patted him on the back and said, "Hey, big guy, you"ll be great!" He looked at me with one of those 小题5: (the really grateful one) and smiled. "Thanks," he said.
As he started his speech, he 小题6: his throat, and began. "Graduation is a time to 小题7: those who helped you 小题8: it through those tough years. Your parents, your teachers, your siblings, maybe a coach.... but 小题9: , your friends. I am here to tell all of you that being a friend to someone is the best 小题10: you can give them. I am going to tell you a story."
I just looked at my friend with 小题11: as he told the story of the first day we met. He had planned to 小题12: himself over the weekend. He talked of how he had 小题13: his locker so his Mom wouldn"t have to do it later and was carrying his stuff home. He looked hard at me and gave me a little smile. " 小题14: , I was saved. My friend saved me from doing the unspeakable."
I heard the 小题15: go through the crowd as this handsome, popular boy told us all about his weakest moment. I saw his Mom and Dad 小题16: me and smiling that same grateful smile. Not until that moment did I 小题17: it"s depth.
Never underestimate(低估) the 小题18: of your actions. With one small gesture you can change a person"s life. For 小题19: or for worse. Friends are angles who lift us to our feet when our wings have 小题20: remembering how to fly. .

William Shakespeare is the most famous playwright (剧作家). Although he died in 1616, people still go to see his plays. Among the most popular are ＲｏｍｅｏａｎｄＪｕｌｉｅｔ, ＡＭｉｄｓｕｍｍｅｒＮｉｇｈｔ’ｓＤｒｅａｍ and Ｈａｍｌｅｔ — the story of a prince who struggles to respond to the crimes around him.
Shakespeare, who was born in 1564, was an actor as well as a writer. Most of his ideas for plays were taken from history, people’s conversation, ancient stories, and also from other writers. He wrote not only about kings and queens and princes, but also about friends and ordinary people. He wrote about the cruelty of war and the bravery of heroes, as well as about jealousy, joy, hate, ambition and love. His stories live on. The tragedy ＲｏｍｅｏａｎｄＪｕｌｉｅｔ was reborn as the musical ＷｅｓｔＳｉｄｅＳｔｏｒｙ and more recently as the movie ＲｏｍｅｏａｎｄＪｕｌｉｅｔ with the wonderful performance of Leonardo DiCaprio and Claire Danes.
He invented a number of great characters: powerful magicians, thrilling witches, smart women and both wise and wicked men. He also invented some great phrases. If you’ve ever said, “Oh, for goodness sake!” you can thank Shakespeare for that. Other examples of common phrases adapted from Shakespeare: “as luck would have it”, “your own flesh and blood”, “too much of a good thing”, “good riddance”, “in one fell swoop”, and “in the twinkling of an eye”. “To be, or not to be: that is the question,” Hamlet says. “Good night, good night. Parting is such sweet sorrow, that I shall say good night till it is morrow,” says Juliet to her Romeo.
Don’t be surprised if you don’t understand everything when reading Shakespeare or watching one of his plays because the meanings of many words have changed over the years. And Shakespeare’s characters speak in poetry, so their speeches can be complicated.
It does help to find out a little bit about the story before reading a Shakespeare play. It’s worth the effort. As Shakespeare wrote, “All the world is a stage.” And in his plays you’ll find that an entire world is waiting for you.
1. Shakespeare created the following characters EXCEPT ________.
A. Juliet B. Hamlet C. Claire Danes D. Romeo
2. From Paragraph 3 we can learn that ________.
A. most of the characters created by Shakespeare were negative ones
B. most of the phrases used today were invented by Shakespeare

A. most of Shakespeare’s plays have been made into films
B. language changes with the development of society
C. Shakespeare made lots of money from his works
D. it is more useful to read Shakespeare’s works than to watch them
I stopped to watch my little girl busy playing in her room. In one hand was a plastic phone; in the other a toy broom. I listened as she was speaking to her doll. And I will never forget the words she said, ever though it was pretended.
She said, “Suzie’s in the corner because she’s not been very good. She didn’t listen to a word I said or do the things she should.” In the corner I saw her baby doll all dressed in lace and pink. It was obvious that she’d been put there to sit alone and think.
My daughter continued her “conversation”, as I sat down on the floor. She said, “I’m all fed up, I just don’t know what to do with her anymore. She cries whenever I have to work and wants to play games, too. She tries to help me with the dishes, but her arms just cannot reach…And she doesn’t know how to fold towels. I don’t have the time to teach. I have a lot of work to do and a big house to keep clean. I don’t have the time to sit and play —don’t you know what I mean?”
And that day I thought a lot about making some changes in my life, as I listened to her words that cut me like a knife. I hadn’t been paying enough attention to what I hold most dear.
But now my attitude has changed, because, in my heart, I realize…I’ve seen the world in a different light through my little darling’s eyes. So, let the cobwebs have the corners and the dustbunnies rule the floor, I’m not going to worry about keeping up with them anymore.
I’m going to fill the house with memories of a child and her mother…For we are granted only one childhood, and we will never get another.

C. She didn’t show her love to her child.
D. She always dressed up baby dolls with her daughter.

A. A happy atmosphere inside the home.
B. All her d aughter’s toys
C. Happy memories of a child
D. Things that kept the mother busy
4. Which of the following is the most suitable title for this passage?

Stop thinking that you are too old to learn how to play the piano! You are able to learn the piano or any other instrument at any age. As long as you want to learn the piano, you can. When you decide to learn the piano, think about what you want out of it. Do you want to learn a specific piece of music, or are you more interested in learning techniques and the chord structures behind it? There are no limits, and you will get as much out of it as what you are willing to put into it.

This allows you personal, face-to-face lessons — usually on a weekly basis where they are able to teach you and correct you. This is a great way to learn the piano, but you are limited in the contact hours you have with your teacher which may slow your learning.
２．．．．
This would have to be the hardest way because you are just working by yourself and you can never be sure if you have understood the books correctly.
３．．．．
These are quite new to the market. They are video or DVD lessons that you can work through at your own pace. The advantage here is that you have the teacher so you know if you are doing it right, and you can work at your own pace — as quickly or as slowly as you like.

It was 4 o’clock in the morning, when I received the phone call.
“This is the emergency room calling and your son was just 16 in with severe burns on his face, neck and arms. We have called for a(n) 17 and are going to fly him to the burn unit in Seattle.” Seattle was 350 miles from his college, so we knew immediately this was 18 .
The doctor described the 19 , which caused the burns. At 6 a.m, our son and his friends decided to barbecue hamburgers in the courtyard of their apartment. When they 20 the charcoal(木炭), it burst into flames because they had sprayed too much gasoline(petrol). The flames 21 my son’s shirt tail and shot from his waist to well over his head.
22 , one of the boys was quick-minded, grasped my son, and 23 him on the grass. While it saved his life, it was not in 24 to save him from severe burns and the terrible scars(伤疤).
After he 25 from the treatments, the doctors told him they would not do plastic surgery(整容)for 6 months 26 it takes that long for the skin to stop shrinking and wrinkling. So, he had to return to college with scars typical of severe burns.
When I was a child, my mother told my sister, who had a 10-inch very 27 scar on her arm, “Nancy, if you ignore the scar, other people will ignore it. It does not mean they will not 28 it, but it means it will not matter to them if it doesn’t matter to you.”
I 29 this wisdom on to my son. He took my advice to 30 and returned to school with his head held high--- glad he was alive.
By the end of the six-month waiting period, he decided that the scars did not 31 , so he made the 32 to give up any plastic surgery we all have “scars” that we believe 33 people to keep away from us. And we spend a lot of time thinking that if only we looked differently, or dressed differently, people would like us better.
But you see, people will only judge you by your looks, or your clothes, if you are judging yourself by these same 34 standards. Put your imperfections out of your mind and concentrate on what you value 35 yourself, and your beauty will shine through.
