During my second year of college, I was looking around for a place to live. One Sunday after church, the pastor(牧师) told me to stay in his daughter’s room because his daughter was studying abroad for one year.
To be 36 , I really didn’t want to stay with “the pastor’s family”. He told me how much the 37 would be---a very low figure that 38 one home-cooked meal a day. I thought about the 39 and decided to move in.
At the end of the term I had planned to find 40 living place, since the daughter was to 41 home. To my delight, they 42 that I share a room with their son. I seemed to have been adopted into their 43 ----their people became my people. I 44 accepted the offer.
As I emptied the daughter’s bedroom, I thought it might be 45 to have a little sister to look after. But when I later met my new sister, I 46 that she was more independent than I first 47 .
We finally fell in love, 48 , and have looked after each other for many years. There have been times that life turned out more 49 than either of us could have known. But we have always been able to go 50 largely because we knew that we are deeply 51 .
It isn’t about marriage… It’s about 52 . It’s about mothers and fathers, sisters and brothers and special friends who are as 53 as family. It’s about anybody who can say, “I’ll be 54 ----you can count on me. I’ll try to look after you and sometimes I will need you to look after me.
Is there somebody you can depend on? And are others counting on you? We travel the path of life best when there is 55 to look after, and when someone is looking after us.

But her pen dared travel where her eyes would not. In a 50-year writing career, Christie"s murder stories made her the world"s best-known mystery writer. She is outsold only by the Bible and Shakespeare.
Her works have been turned into films and TV series, and a line of computer games is to be released over the next six years.
"My grandmother liked to use new ways to reach people who wanted to enjoy her work," said Christie"s grandson, Mathew Pritchard. "Turning her stories into PC games allows us to introduce classic mysteries to new audiences."
Born in 1890 in England, Christie was educated at home and began her writing career while working as a nurse during World War I. She went on to produce 79 novels and numerous short stories, dying at the age of 86.

Would you believe that the first outstanding deaf teacher in America was a Frenchman? His name was Laurent Clerc. He became a friend of Thomas Hopkins Gallaudet and together they founded America" s first school for the deaf,
Laurent Clerc was born in a small village near Lyons, France, on December 26, 1785. When he Was one year old, he fell into a fire, losing both his hearing and his sense of smell.
At 12, Laurent entered the Royal Institution for the Deaf in Paris where he excelled in his studies. After he graduated, the school asked him to stay on as an assistant teacher.
Meanwhile, in America, Thomas Hopkins Gallandet was studying to be a minister. He was very concerned about the lack of educational opportunities for the deaf. Therefore, in 1815, Gallaudet sailed to London, England to seek ideas on how to teach deaf people. While he was there, he met a French educator of the deaf who invited him to go to Paris to spend three months learning at the Royal Institution for the Deaf, the school where Laurent Clerc was teaching. Gallaudet accepted the offer. The two worked and studied well together. When the time came for Gallaudet to return, he asked Clerc to come with him. Clerc accepted on one condition: that he would stay in America only a short time.
The two men set sail on June 18, 1816. The voyage across the Atlantic Ocean took 52 days; however, Clerc and Gallaudet put the time to good use. Clerc studied English, and Gallaudet studied sign language. They discussed the school for the deaf which they planned to open. On the long trip, they had many conversations about education and deafness. The year after they arrived, they founded a school for the deaf in Harford, Connecticut.
At the school, Clerc led a busy life. He taught signs to Principal Gallaudet; he taught the pupils; and he taught hearing men who came to the school to study deaf education.
In 1819, Clerc married Eliza Crocker Boardman, one of his pupils. They had six children. He retired from teaching in 1858. Although he had intended to return to France, he never did. He died on July 18, 1869 in the United States.
72. Why did Thomas Hopkins Gallaudet sail to London?
A. He needed to finish his studies to become a minister.
B. It was the easiest way to get to France.
C. He wanted to study their system of deaf education.

A. Laurent Clerc was an intelligent man

D. Clerc was paid well because he made such important contributions to society

A. played cards and socialized
B. studied and discussed their plans for a deaf school

Fairview Elementary School, Modesto, California, with some 1,000 students from kindergarten through sixth grade (about 80 percent of them Latino), has long suffered from discipline (纪律) problems, poor test scores, and a near total lack of parental involvement. The difficulties aren"t surprising given that many of the parents -- immigrants who work on farms or in factories -- speak little or no English.
Since 2002, Fairview Elementary School has been a First Amendment School, one of 97 developed across the country by the First Amendment Center. The idea behind the five-year-old program: To keep America strong, children must be trained to respect many points of view, weigh complex issues, and understand the freedoms guaranteed by the Constitution (宪法). As students learn good citizenship, the theory goes, they"ll develop the skills and attitude to do well academically.
Fairview students enjoy" freedoms" other kids might envy (they voted to abolish school uniforms, for example). But the children don"t just exercise rights. They also accept such responsibilities as speaking up during class discussions, and keeping the school clean and safe (Fairview is rated the cleanest of 33 schools in its district). In one departure from tradition, there’s no hand-raising in class. "Instead," says teacher Deborah Supnet, "we teach them to listen for when the other child stops talking. "Call it an exercise in respect.
Last year, the number of students evaluated advanced in math increased, from 15 to 30 percent. And Fairview graduates in their first middle-school mid-term exam averaged B grades; 96 percent passed all subjects. Particularly encouraging to Principal Rob Williams, the school now has an active parents" group, Parents With a Voice. One of those parents, Laura Malagon, praises the program for convincing her to play a more active role in her children"s school fife.
Fresh ideas that are making the grade
| The 76. ______ | Students of Fairview Elementary School used to have trouble 77, ______ themselves and getting good grades. Their parents didn"t get actively 78. ______ in their children’s school life. |
| The strategy | Students are trained to 79. ________ different opinions and get a better 80. ________ of the freedoms. Students learn to be good 81. ______ and improve their 82._______ per- formance. |
| The signs of success | Students 83. ________ on more responsibilities. A(n) 84. ________ number of students do well in math. Parents take a more active 85. ________ in their children’s school life. |

When I was going home to India last year, I called up my mother to ask if she wanted anything from China.
When India had not 36 its markets to the world, I carried suitcase loads of dark glasses and jeans. 37 , we can get all these anywhere in India now.
Still, her answer 38 me: “Green tea.” As long as I can remember she didn’t even drink 39 tea. I dutifully bought a big packet of Longjing and 40 home to hear the story. My mother and her brother, both 41 newspaper readers, believed that Chinese green tea was the wonder 42 for all illnesses.
43 the turn of the century, China was not really familiar to the 44 Indian. It was a strange country. Now every town of 45 size seems to have a “China Market”. And everyone is talking about China. How things 46 ! And how soon! The government of India has planned to send a team to 47 to see how things are done. A minister once said that India must open the doors for more foreign investment and such a step 48 “work wonders as it did for China”.
But it’s a 49 street. I just heard about a thousand Shenzhen office workers who have gone to Rangalore to 50 in software. Meanwhile, all the IT majors are setting up a strong presence in China. 51 that trade , which was only in the millions just ten years ago, 52 hit about US$20 billion for last year and US$25 billion by 2009, a goal 53 by both governments. No wonder, my colleague wrote some weeks ago about this 54 the Sino-Indian(中印)century as the two countries started on January 1 the Sino-Indian Friendship Year.
But what is still a 55 to me is my mother drinking Chinese tea.
