完形填空。     Signs can sometimes be seen at theentrance of a house, expressing
that a tramp has passed. This specialsign language is frequently   1   
by tramps to inform their   2   whether the host of a certain house is
friendly or unfriendly,and to  3  them the trouble of making unnecessary calls.
       Quite  4  one day, I came across a real tramp. He was such
a rare sight these days that I stood some distance away and watched
him He was dressed just as a tramp should be 5 , old worn
trousers and a jacket many sizes too big for him. On his head there
was a battered old hat and his boots were so old and worn-they
were almost coming into  6  . But the man himself looked
cheerful as if he had not a   7  in the world. He rubbed his nose
with his forefinger,   8   a funny turn, laid a small parcel by the
front gate, and began   9  a sign made by a former caller.
Although the sign was meaningless to me, it must have been  10  ,
for the tramp"s face lit up with  11  . He entered the front gate
confidently and rang the bell. When the door opened, I saw him
12  his hat but couldn"t hear his words. The 13 was very
short indeed, for no sooner had he spoken a few words than the door
closed fiercely in his face. I felt   14   for him as he walked  15 
out of the house. But just as quickly, his face lit up again and he
moved quickly towards the gate. There he stopped, looked at the
sign, and 16  his head seriously as if he had made a bad mistake.
 17  deeply into his pockets, he produced a piece of chalk, rubbed
out the 18 sign and made a new one in its place. He stared at it
for a moment smiling to himself, then gathered his 19 ,pushed
back his hat and began walking towards the next house at an
unhurried 20 whistling as he went along.(     )1. A. employed

完形填空。     I am a people watcher, a trait magnified when I travel. On
the train to and from Tokyo, I realized,   1   , that my
fellow riders who were Japanese rarely   2     up and around

me at first. To my American mind such interaction has the
  4    of mutual (相互的) acknowledgement. But  then  I
remembered    5   that the Japanese rarely maintain direct
eye contact. Perhaps my people watching seemed  6     . I
tried to be more subtle (细心的).
      I had also read how the Japanese feel     7     to each other

Westerner, I was obviously an outsider, I often     9     being a

                              How do you feel about watching other people work?
     Nothing is more refreshing on a warm summer day than watching someone else work.
Right now, I"m sitting on my porch and watching young Beth baling (打捆) the big field on top of the hill.
She"s been haying that field for over ten years. I know: I put her on the tractor when she was just twelve
years old.
     She picked a great day for baling. It"s not too hot, and there"s a nice breeze. On Monday, when she
cut the field, it was so hot I thought the corn would start popping in the field. Didn"t stop her, though. She
just stuck that big hat on her head, wrapped a wet handkerchief around her neck, and set to work. I
remember when I would have done the same thing.
    While I"m here sucking a lemonade, Beth is driving the "hay (干草) train," a tractor pulling a baler and
an old wagon. You"d think someone her size would never be able to see over the tractor. But somehow
she manages. When she"s finished, her tracks are very straight.
     The whole time she"s haying, that dog of hers is working just as hard, running along beside her like
he"s afraid she"ll drive away without him. Beth sure knew what she was doing when she trained him.
     The way the machine works is pure poetry. Each row is pushed into shape. When just enough hay is
in a bale, it is wrapped up and fastened together. A second or so later, the bale comes flying out and into
the old wagon. The person who invented that machine sure was some kind of genius.
     That"s not to say it works perfectly. Every once in a while a bale misses the mark, especially when you are turning the machine at the end of a row. That means, of course, that you have to go back and pick up
those bales and throw them into the wagon.
     I can remember when Beth"s mother was her age. She looked an awful lot like Beth does now.
Makes a man proud to see his daughter and granddaughter taking such good care of themselves.
     Well, I suppose I should get up and fill this glass again. Not much fun sitting here with an empty glass. 1. We can learn from the passage that at some time in the past the author ______.  A. bought the tractor for Beth    
B. forced Beth to work at an early age
C. worked in the field like Beth            
D. trained the dog to help Beth work 2. In the eyes of the author, the sight of Beth baling hay is _______.  A. uncommon        
B. beautiful          
C. unforgettable        
D. changeable       3. Before thrown into the wagon, the hay must be _______.A. tied up            
B. dried up          
C. cut up              
D. lined up   4. Who do you think is telling this story? A. Beth"s mother.      
B. Beth"s father.    
C. Beth"s grandmother.  
D. Beth"s grandfather.

阅读理解。     Last Friday my brother and I were driving home together after doing some shopping and gave our
attention to an interesting conversation. Because of this distraction (分心)my brother took a wrong turn.
Unfortunately, the wrong turn took us towards a bridge and we had no way to turn back. Unwillingly, my
brother paid the bridge fee and drove on. He was clearly frustrated by the mistake and the needless
waste of $4.
     We eventually reached an exit and, as we took it, my brother noticed a young fellow pulled over to
the side of the road. He came out of his car and tried to phone someone. I was busy trying to figure out
which way we would go next but my brother pulled over and asked the guy if he needed any help. And
he did. He had a flat tire and needed a tool to get it off.
     My brother gave him a wrench, and then began to help him change the flat. The young man said that
this had been a bad week for him: earlier he had gotten into a minor car accident, and now this flat on his
way home from work. But he called us "a breath of fresh air" and kept thanking us because he really
would have been stuck if we hadn"t come along.
     After we finished the job he thanked us again and pulled out $20 from his pocket and tried to give it
to us. "No," I said. "We were never supposed to even get on that bridge, we took a wrong turn. But now we know why we did. It was to help you. Thank you for turning our mistake into an opportunity to
serve."
     What I loved most was that my brother was able to see a chance to help. His reaction in the situation
is a lesson for everyone and we felt so good the rest of the day. 1. When did the author and his brother notice the young man who had a flat tire?A. Before they arrived at a bridge.
B. When they were passing through an exit.
C. When the young man stopped them for help.
D. After they came back to the right road.2.We can learn from the text that the writer"s brother ______.A. didn"t know the roads well
B. was a warm-hearted young man

D. regretted making a wrong turn all the way home3.What did the young man mean by calling the writer and his brother "a breath of fresh air" ?A. He had been in the hot sun waiting for help for so long.
B. His car"s air conditioner was broken.
C. They calmed him down by offering him a cold drink.
D. They changed his bad luck and the bad mood he was in.4. Which of the following sentences best describes the writer"s experience? A. It"s no use crying over spilt milk.
B. God helps those who help themselves.
C. Nothing in the world is difficult for one who sets his mind to it.
D. If you light a lamp for somebody, it will also brighten your path.
