always a ring that has 2 on it so that when I look at it, I"m 3 or reminded of something important .
I have made a 4 of buying rings like this whenever I see one in a store. Sometimes I give them away
as 5 to someone like Jennie.
I first met Jennie in the 6 waiting room and we had talked several times. One night I sat down
beside her and 7 how her son was going because I knew that he was in very 8 condition. She told
me that she didn"t know what to do any more because it seemed none of the 9 from the doctors was
good. They weren"t at all sure her son was going to 10 the accident that had hurt him so badly. With
11 in her eyes she said, "They"re taking away my 12 ."
I knew then that it was 13 just a coincidence (巧合) that I was wearing the ring that I had on that
day. As she 14 to talk, I 15 slipped the ring off my finger and placed it in Jennie"s hand. I told her to
wear it to remember that God loved her and He would be with her 16 all of this. 17 Jennie looked
down at the ring, she got excited and then held it tightly, 18 the word written on the ring was "HOPE".
The last day I was at the hospital, I saw Jennie in the distance as I got on the lift. She 19 and held
up the hand with the ring on it as she called out to me saying, "Look, I 20 have Hope!"

| A young, dark haired woman appeared in the doorway. "Good morning, children! My name is Mrs. Murray. I am replacing your regular teacher," she said, as she wrote her name on the blackboard. "I will enjoy getting to know each of you personally, over the next few months." The children in the class remained silent, as this was totally unexpected. "Come on, someone say something," she thought nervously. The children were too quiet. "This probably won"t last long," she thought, smiling kindly at them. Grade Three students were normally  very lively and seldom, if ever silent. "If you have problems, please come to me. I will help you." The children gradually began to relax, but not one of them spoke. "How can I get them to accept me?" she wondered. Suddenly, she had an idea. "Your first homework will be to write a new song. To make it even more exciting, challenging and fun for everyone, it must be a new love song for Valentine"s Day. The winner will be awarded a prize, at our class party." The children looked amazed, but pleased. "You may sing your new song, or play it with a musical instrument." As if something had suddenly awakened the children, the silence in the room ended suddenly. "A love song?" a boy asked, smiling sweetly, at his new teacher. "We each have to write one," said a dark haired girl, "We never had to do that before." "And perform it too!" a red haired boy responded, laughing aloud. "I love it! Me, sing a love song?" "Want to know what the first prize will be?" Immediately, every hand in the room went up. Mrs. Murray reached into her handbag and pulled out a harmonica(口琴). "What do you think of this?" She waited. "I am also a music teacher, so I will be able to help you write your new love songs." added Mrs. Murray, smiling at her new students. Obviously, her smile and intelligent idea about the homework impressed every student in the class. 1. The children remained silent at the beginning because __________. A. they missed their former teacher B. they were surprised at the situation C. they didn"t know the teacher"s name D. they were not allowed to speak in class 2. We can learn from the passage that __________. A. children in the class liked to write their own love songs B. most children in the class were good at performing music C. it was the prize that made the students accept their new teacher D. the students in this class are not as active as other Grade Three students 3. Which of the following words can best describe Mrs. Murray? A. Kind and curious. B. Helpful and clever. C. Faithful and honest. D. Patient and humorous. | |||||||||||||||||

| Louise was 72 years old and she lived by herself. The first thing she noticed when she came downstairs that Sunday morning was that her 1 window was open. In fact, it was so wide open that she had 2 closing it. Then she realized that things were not in their proper 3 . Finally, when she found her empty 4 on the kitchen table, she realized the awful 5 . At first, she didn"t know what to do. Then she decided to 6 her son, Derek. Derek"s wife Sybil answered the phone, "It"s your mother," she 7 him, coldly. Louise told Derek about the open window, about things being in the wrong places and about the 8 missing from her purse. "All right," said Derek, "Don"t 9 anything. I"ll be 10 in half an hour." Louise 11 and made herself a pot of tea and some toast. Then she went from room to room wondering 12 anything else was missing. When Derek arrived, he was content to 13 her looking so calm. "Have you rung the 14 ?" he asked. "No? Then I"ll do that straight away." So he rang the police. As it was Sunday, 15 the only detectives were out. However, the police were polite, but vague （含糊的）. "We"ll send 16 round as soon as possible," they said. Derek telephoned his wife. "I"m not sure when I"ll be home, love," he told her. "I"ve got to 17 for the police." While Derek and his mother waited, Derek 18 the catches（挂钩）on the windows and locks on the doors. All of them were old and some of the catches hardly 19 at all. Derek felt 20 . His mother was an old woman, after all. "I"ll have to change all these," he told her. | |||||||||||||||||

| Free to Fly with the Wind One windy sprind day,I observed young people having fun by flying their kites in the wind.Colorful 1 of varying shapes and sizes filled the blue and clean skies like beautiful birds 2 . As the strong winds blew against the kites,a 3 kept them in control. Instead of blowing away with the wind,they went up against it to achieve great 4 .They shook and pulled,but the control string and the long tail kept them under 5 , facing upward and against the 6 . As the kites struggled and trembled against the string,they seemed to be saying,"Let me go!Let me go!I want to be 7 !"They flew beautifully even as they fought the control of the string.Finally,one of the kites 8 in breaking loose."Free at last,"it seemed to be saying,"Free to fly with the wind." Yet freedom from control simply put it at the 9 of an unsympathetic wind.It 10 ungracefully to the ground and landed in a wild mass of weeds."Free at last"-free to 11 powerlessly in the dirt,and to be blown 12 along the ground... How we are like kites sometimes!The Heaven gives us adversities(逆境),limits and rules to 13 from which we can grow and gain strength.Control is a 14 opponent to the winds of opposition.We can never go up high enough to achieve our goals sometimes if we lose our necessary 15 or the rules. | |||||||||||||||||
