Considering that there was no better way. Mrs. Smith took a piece of paper, and wrote the
following words on it:"Give my dog half a pound of meat."Then she gave the paper to her dog
and said gently:"Take this to the butcher(* person whose job is selling meat)and he"s going to
give you your lunch today."
Holding the piece of paper in its mouth, the dog ran to the butcher"s. It gave the paper to the
butcher. The butcher read it carefully, recognized that it was really the lady"s handwriting and
soon did it as he was asked to. The dog was very happy, and ate the meat up at once.
At noon, the dog came to the shop again. It gave the butcher a piece of paper again. After
reading it, he gave it half a pound of meat once more.
The next day, the dog came again exactly at noon. And as usual, it brought a piece of paper in
the mouth. This time, the butcher did not take a look at paper, and gave the dog its meat, for he
had regarded the dog as one of his customers(*people who buy sth. from a shop).
But, the dog came again at four o"clock. And the same thing happened once again. To the butcher"s
more surprise, it came for the third time at six o"clock, and brought with it a third piece of paper.

it so much meat to eat today?"

C. kindly

said to the driver, "Thank you for the ride. You did a good job of driving."
The taxi driver was shocked for a second. Then he said, "Are you a wise man or something?"
"No, my dear man, and I"m not putting you on. I like the way you keep cool in heavy traffic."
"Yeah," the driver said and drove off.
"What was that all about?" I asked.
"I am trying to bring love back to New York," he said. "I believe it"s the only thing that can save
the city."
" How can one man save New York?"
"It"s not one man. I believe I have made that taxi driver"s day. Suppose he has 20 fares(乘客).
He"s going to be nice to those 20 fares because someone was nice to him. Those fares in turn will be
kinder to their shopkeepers or waiters or even their own families. Finally the goodwill could go to at
least 1000 people. Now that isn"t bad, is it?"
"But you"re depending on that taxi driver to pass your goodwill to others."
"I"m not depending on it," my friend said. "I might deal with ten different people today. If out of ten
I can make three happy, then I can have an effect on 3000 more people."
"It sounds good on paper," I said, "but I"m not sure it works in practice."
"Nothing is lost if it doesn"t. It didn"t take any of my time to tell that man he was doing a good job.
He neither received a larger tip nor a smaller tip. If it fell on deaf ears, so what? Tomorrow there will
be another taxi driver I can try to make happy."
B. angry
C. pleased
D. surprised
B. Because he hoped to bring love to the city.

As the crowd 13,the boy named Tommy stood with his father as their car sped down the

it wasn"t for her, because she really didn"t feel like talking to anyone. She uttered a monotonous
(沉闷的 ) , " Hello?" " Hi Sarah! !This is Mindy! What"s up?? Umm, the reason that called was
that I need help with the English assignment. I"ve been having trouble coming up with a topic. "
Sarah"s shoulders silently drooped as she realized that she had completely forgotten about the
homework to witness or be a part of a situation and write it in down in great detail. She let out a sigh.
As her best friend continued to talk about her topic ideas, Sarah"s mind drifted. She thought
about how Mindy was moving 500 miles away in less than a month. She thought about how much
she"d miss her friend and how it wouldn"t be the same without her.
"So, do you have any idea what I should do about this assignment? "Mindy asked, bringing
Sarah out of her fog. She answered her own question, suddenly exclaiming, "I know! ! I"ll describe
what happened today in the lunch line! I just wanted to ring that Jennifer girl"s neck! ! SHE WAS
SO RUDE! ""
Sarah thought back to earlier in the day when they had been in the lunch line, waiting patiently
and a snotty(自大的)girl pushed her way up in front of them, causing Mindy and Sarah to lose their
place in line.
"That sounds like a good idea. I wish I"d thought of that, "Sarah says softly. The conversation
ended quickly after that and Sarah was feeling better. She was still sad that her best friend was moving,
but she knew that they would keep in touch and always be close. At just that moment, Sarah was glad
that Mindy called. She now had the perfect topic for her English assignment.
B. She was busy working.
C. She was doing her assignment.
D. She was repairing the computer.
B. say that she was missing Sarah
C. ask Sarah for help
D. comfort Sarah
B. She di4n"t quite care about it.
C. She was surprised because Mindy hadn"t told her earlier.
D. She was sad that Mindy would forget her.
B. Because she knew that she and Mindy would keep in touch.
C. Because Mindy could act bravely to protect them at school.
D. Because Mindy would never trouble her with a question any more.
the relationship between wolves and human beings? Have you ever thought about the wolves"
world?
When it comes to the wolf, we tend to 1 it as a kind of fierce creature. But is it really true
that the wolf stands for devil and ugliness? If you had read this book, you would 2 the wolves
. In the book, wolves are heroes on the large grassland. They know more about 3 than humans.
They can attack lambs without disturbing their mothers. They also know how to 4 full use of the
shape of land to 5 sheep. I believe that if wolves were humans, they would be 6 at fighting.
The wolf is a kind of special creature that can deeply understand 7 . Each wolf serves its
group with its heart and soul. A 8 wolf has little power, but a pack of wolves 9 nothing. All the
wolves obey the rules. 10 they are defeated, they run away together. It is their teamwork 11
makes wolves 12 .
The wolves also have great self-preservation and won"t 13 to anyone. The writer, who wrote
the book The Wolf Totem, 14 stole a one-month-old baby wolf and raised it very carefully. To
his 15 , he found the little wolf still wanted to go back with 16 wolves. The little wolf bit through
that the little wolf died as a glorious fighter.
I was shocked by this kind of 19 wolves which are one of the most respected creatures on
the earth. I want everyone to look at wolves in a 20 way. They are our teachers. They show us
how to survive and get into this not simple but dangerous world. Please honor the wolves, please
honor all these heroes of nature!
