yesterday when it landed upside down in three feet of water. Mr. Johnson took the only escape
route-through the boot (行李箱).
Mr. Johnson’s car had finished up in a ditch (沟渠) at Romney Marsin, Kent after skidding on ice
and hitting a bank. “Fortunately, the water began to come in only slowly,” Mr. Johnson said. "I couldn’t
force the doors because they were jammed against the walls of the ditch and dared not open the windows because I knew water would come flooding in."
Mr. Johnson, a sweet salesman of Sitting Home, Kent, first tried to attract the attention of other
motorists by sounding the horn and hammering on the roof and boot. Then he began his struggle to escape.
Later he said, "It was really a half penny that saved my life. It was the only coin I had in my pocket
and I used it to unscrew(拧开) the back seat to get into the boot. I hammered desperately with a hammer
trying to make someone hear, but no help came."
It took ten minutes to unscrew the seat, and a further five minutes to clear the sweet samples from the
boot. Then Mr. Johnson found a wrench and began to work on the boot lock. Fifteen minutes passed by. "It was the only chance I had. Finally it gave, but as soon as I moved the boot lid, the water and mud
poured in. I forced the lid down into the mud and climbed out as the car filled up."
His hands and arms cut and bruised, Mr. Johnson got to Beckett Farm nearby, where he was looked
after by the farmer’s wife, Mrs. Lucy Bates. Huddled in a blanket, he said, “That thirty minutes seemed
like hours.” Only the tips of the car wheels were visible, police said last night. The vehicle had sunk into
two feet of mud at the bottom of the ditch.
1. Which of the following objects is the most important to Mr. Johnson?
A. The hammer.
B. The screw.
C. The coin.
D. The horn.
2. "Finally it gave"(Paragraph 5) means that _____.
A. Luckily the door was torn away in the end
B. At last the wrench went broken
C. The chance was lost at the last minute
D. The lock came open after all his efforts
3. Which statement is true according to the passage?
A. Mr. Johnson’s car stood on its boot as it fell down.
B. Mr. Johnson’s car accident was partly due to the icy road.
C. Mr. Johnson could not escape from the door because it was full of sweet jam.
D. Mr. Johnson struggled in the pouring mud as he unscrewed the back seat.
4. What is the best title for this newspaper article?
A. The Story of Mr. Johnson, A Sweet Salesman
B. Driver Escapes Through Car Boot
C. Car Boot Can Serve As The Best Escape Route
D. The Driver Survived A Terrible Car Accident

buckets.One was a shiny and new bucket.The other was a very old and dilapidated one, which had seen
many years of service, but was now past its best.
Every morning, the gardener would fill up the two buckets.Then he would carry them along the path,
one on each side, to the flowerbeds.The new bucket was very proud of itself.It could carry a full bucket of water without a single drop spilled (溢出)．The old bucket felt very ashamed because of its holes: before
it reached the flowerbeds, much water had leaked along the path.
Sometimes the new bucket would say, "See how capable I am! How good it is that the gardener has
me to water the flowers every day! I don"t know why he still bothers with you.What a waste of space you are!"
And all that the old bucket could say was, "I know I"m not very useful, but I can only do my best.I"m
happy that the gardener still finds a little bit of use in me, at least."
One day, the gardener heard that kind of conversation.After watering the flowers as usual, he said,
"You both have done your work very well.Now I am going to carry you back.I want you to look carefully along the path."
Then the two buckets did so.All along the path, they noticed, on the side where the new bucket was
carried, there was just bare (光秃秃的) earth; on the other side where the old bucket was carried, there was a joyous row of wild flowers, leading all the way to the garden.
A. Dirty.
B. Dark.
C. Worn-out.
D. Plain-looking.
2. What was the old bucket ashamed of?
A. His past.
B. His aging.
C. His manner.
D. His leaking.
3. The new bucket made conversations with the old one mainly to ________.
A. laugh at the old one
B. take pity on the old one
C. show off its beautiful looks
D. praise the gardener"s kindness
4. Why was the old bucket still kept by the gardener?
A. Because it was used to keep a balance.
B. Because it stayed in its best condition.
C. Because it was taken as a treasure.
D. Because it had its own function.
Walking over to the offender, I asked for the __1__. Frozen, she refused to give it to me.I waited,
all attention in the classroom on the quiet __2__ between the teacher and the student. When she finally
__3__ it over she whispered, "Okay, but I didn"t draw it."
It was a handdrawn __4__ of me, teeth blackened and the words "I"m stupid" coming out of my
mouth.
I managed to fold it up calmly. My mind, __5__, was working angrily as I struggled not to
__6__.I knew the two most likely candidates for drawing the picture. It would do them some __7__
to teach them a lesson, and maybe it was high time that I did it!
Thankfully, I was able to keep myself __8__.
When there were about six minutes remaining, I showed the class the picture. They were all silent as
I told them how __9__ this was for me.I told them there must be a reason __10__ and now was their
chance to write down anything they needed to tell me. Then I let them write silently while I sniffed in the
back of the classroom.
As I __11__ the notes later, many of them said something like, "I"ve got nothing against you, " or "I"m
sorry you were hurt." Some kids said, "We"re __12__ of you." But two notes, from the girls who I
__13__ were behind the picture, had a list of issues. I was too __14__, too strict...
Reading those notes, I realized that over the course of this year, instead of __15__ my students, I had
begun commanding them to __16__.Where I thought I was driving them to success I was __17__ driving
them away.
I had some apologizing to do. But the next day in the classroom, one boy and one girl each handed
me a card. The one __18__ by all the boys expressed sincere regret for the ugly joke. The one from the
girls asked for __19__.
This was a lesson for both the kids and me. Forgiveness does not change the past, but it does enlarge
the __20__.
