Autumn is a 3 season and life is uninteresting. The free days always get me 4 . But one day, the
sound of a violin 5 into my ears like a stream flowing in the mountains. I was so surprised that I
jumped to see what it was. A young girl, standing in the wind, was 6 in playing her violin.
I had 7 seen her before. The music was so attractive that I listened quietly. Lost in the music, I
didn"t realize that I had been 8 there for so long but my 9 did not seem to disturb (打扰) her.
Leaves were still falling. Every day she played the violin in the corner of the building
10 I went downstairs to watch her performance. I was the only audience (观众). The autumn
seemed no longer lonely and life became 11 . 12 we didn"t know each other, I thought we were
already good friends. I believed she also liked me.
Autumn was nearly over. One day, when I was listening devotedly (专心地), the sound suddenly
stopped. To my 13 the girl came over to me.
"You must like violin," she said.
"Yes. And you play very well. Why did you stop?" I asked.
Suddenly, a 14 expression appeared on her face and I could feel something unusual.
"I came here to see my grandmother, but now I must leave. I once played very badly. It was your
listening every day that 15 me. " she said.
"In fact, it was your playing 16 gave me a meaningful autumn." I answered. "Let us be friends."
The girl smiled and I smiled.
I never heard her play again in my life. I no longer went downstairs to listen like before. Only thick
leaves were left behind. But I will always remember the fine figure (倩影) of the girl. She is like a 17 ;
so short, so bright, like a shooting star giving off so much light that it makes the autumn beautiful.
There are many kinds of friends. Some are always 18 you, but don"t understand you. Some say
only a few words to you, but are close to you. Many people will step in your life, but only 19 friends
leave footprints (足迹).
I shall always recall (回忆) the autumn and the girl with the 20 . She will always bring back the
friendship between us. I know she will always be my best friend.

something to learn from the tortoise?"
Sonny opened his eyes wide, " Do you mean next time when I"m entering for the 60-metre race I
should wish that Billy, Tony and Sandy would all fall asleep halfway?"
I was shocked, "But the tortoise didn"t wish that the hare would fall asleep!"
"He must have wished that," Sonny said, "Otherwise how could he be so foolish as to race with the
hare? He knew very well the hare ran a hundred times faster than he himself did."
"He didn"t have such a wish," I insisted. "He won the race by perseverance ( 坚忍不拔的 ), by
pushing on steadily."
Sonny thought a while. "That"s a lie," he said. " He won it because he was lucky. If the hare hadn"t
happened to fall asleep, the tortoise would never have won the race. He could be as steady as you like,
or a hundred times steadier, but he"d never have won the race. That"s for sure."
I gave up. Today"s children are not like what we used to be. They"re just hopeless.
B. they disagreed about whether the tortoise was foolish
C. he tried to teach his son a moral (品德)lesson but the son had totally different opinion

Sleeping Pills
Bob was having trouble getting to sleep at night. He went to see his doctor, who prescribed some
extra-strong sleeping pills.
Sunday night Bob took the pills, slept well and was awake before he heard the alarm. He took his
time getting to the office, strolled in and said to his boss: "I didn"t have a bit of trouble getting up this
morning."
"That"s fine," roared the boss, "but where were you Monday and Tuesday?"
First Flight
Mr. Johnson had never been up in an aerophane before and he had read a lot about air accidents, so
one day when a friend offered to take him for a ride in his own small plane, Mr. Johnson was very
worried about accepting. Finally, however, his friend persuaded him that it was very safe, and Mr.
Johnson boarded the plane.
His friend started the engine and began to taxi onto the runway of the airport. Mr. Johnson had heard
that the most dangerous part of a flight were the take-off and the landing, so he was extremely frightened
and closed his eyes.
After a minute or two he opened them again, looked out of the window of the plane, and said to his
friend, "Look at those people down there. They look as small as ants, don"t they?"
"Those are ants," answered his friend. "We"re still on the ground."
B. 打针
C. 开处方
D. 咨询
B. about 24 hours
C. about a week
D. about tow days

7 Mrs. Jones came up to the judge, he looked at her seriously and said that she was 8 old to drive
a car, and that the 9 why she had not stopped at the red 10 was most probably that her eyes had

When the judge had finished what he was 12 , Mrs. Jones opened the big handbag she was 13
and took out her sewing. Without saying a word, she 14 a needle (针) with a very small eye, and
threaded it at her first attempt.
When she had 15 done this, she took the thread (n.线) out of the needle again and handed 16
the needle and the thread to the judge, saying, "Now it is your 17 . I suppose you drive a car, and that
you are quite sure about your own eyesight."
The judge took the 18 and tried to thread it. After half a dozen tries, he had still not succeeded.

prices between the same items in different shops. He would never think of buying anything without
looking around in several different shops. On the other hand, I"m not a shopper. I think shopping is
boring and unpleasant. If I like something and I have enough money to take it, I buy it at once. I never
look around for a good price or a better deal. Of course my husband and I never go shopping together.
Doing shopping together would be too painful for both of us. When it comes to shopping, we go our
different ways.
Sometimes I ask my son Jimmy to buy some food in the shop not far from our home. But he is always
absent-minded. This was his story.
One day I said to him, " I hope you won"t forget what I have told you to buy." " No," said Jimmy. "I
won"t forget. You want three oranges , six eggs and a pound of meat."
He went running down the street to the shop. As he ran, he said to himself over and over again, "three
oranges , six eggs and a pound of meat."
In the beginning he remember everything but he stopped several times. Once he saw two men fighting
outside a clothes shop until a policeman stopped them. One of them was badly hurt. Then he stopped to
give ten cents to a beggar. Then he met some of his friends and he played with them for a while. When he
reached the shop, he had forgotten everything except six eggs.
As he walked home, his face became sadder and sadder. When he saw me he said, "I"m sorry, Mum.
I have forgotten to buy oranges and the meat. I only remembered to buy six eggs, but I"ve dropped three
of them."
B. he likes the shops.
C. he likes to compare the prices between the same items.
D. he has nothing to do but shopping.
B. they hate each other.
C. they needn"t buy anything for the family
D. they don"t have time for it.
B. he is absent-minded
C. he often loses his money
D. he doesn"t like shopping
B. the policeman stopped him
C. he forgot some of them
D. he gave all the money to the beggar
dreaming of sitting on a Supreme Court bench somewhere. Twenty-one years later I am later I am still a bright-
eyed dreamer and one with quite a different tale to tell.
My grandma, an amazing woman, graduated from college at the age of 65. She was the first in our family
to reach that goal. But one year after I started college, she developed cancer. I made the choice to withdraw
from college to care for her. It meant that school and my personal dream would have to wait.
Then I got married with another dream: building my family with a combination of adopt and biological
children. In 1999, we adopted our first son. To lay eyes on him was fantastic and very emotional. A year later
came our second adopted boy. Then followed son No.3. In 2003, I gave birth to another boy.
You can imagine how fully occupied I became, raising four boys under the age of 81. Our home was a
complete zoo-a joyous zoo. Not surprising, I never did make it back to college full-time. But I never gave up
on the dream either. I had only one choice: to find a way. That meant talking as few as one class each semester.
The hardest part was feeling guilty about the time I spent away from the boys. They often wanted me to
stay home with them. There certainly were times I wanted to quit, But I knew I should set an example for
them to follow through the rest of their lives.
In 2007, I graduated from the University of North Carolina. It took me over 21 years to get my college
degree!
I am not special, just single-minded. It always struck me that when you"re looking at a big challenge from
the outside it looks huge, but when you"re in the midst of it, it just seems normal. Everything you want won"t
arrive in your life on one day. It"s a process. Remember: little steps add up to big dreams.
B. a teacher
C. a judge
D. a doctor
B. She fell in love and got married.
C. She suffered from a serious illness.
D. She decided to look after her grandma.
B. Little by little, one goes far.
C. Every coin has two sides.
D. Well begun, half done.
B. Honest and responsible.
C. Ambitious and sensitive.
D. Innocent and single-minded.
