完形填空。     A mother and daughter living in my communlty are two of the most unfriendly people I have ever come
across in my life. They are totally separated, mixing with   1  . As they drive past   2   they keep their eyes
looking away and make no sign of acknowledgement. The only fame they have is making a nuisance (讨厌
的人) of themselves to the local police station by   3   music played too loud, dogs barking more than once
a day and any other petty   4   gripe (把柄).
     On moving into this neighborhood, I was   5   of these two but decided I would make up my own mind.
This proved qulte a   6   to me as more than once either the mother or the daughter would knock on my door
and blast (猛烈抨击) me with some   7   or other.
     I   8   answered politely and made sure I   9   as they went past my place and also made the effort now
and then to make a kind remark about their garden or pets.

place a kindness rock in their garden. Their  11  remained unchanged, however, and I continued to be as
friendly as possible. During the Easter give, we decided once again to  12  these two unhappy ladies to our
list and left a packet of cookies on their  13 . Imagine my  14  when two days later they  15  at my gate and
jokingly said they are considering hanging their christmas stocking on their gate, and they  16  me a bunch
of flowers!
     So, my fellow gifters, do not  17  on your random gifts of kindness. You may never know iust what this

     It had been a long time since I had been to Jacksonville, Florida. I had driven to town hoping to see
the old barber shop where my hair had been cut as a child.
     I parked my truck and decided to try and locate a telephone to see if the Florida Barber College had
moved to a new location.
     After walking about a block I saw an open shoe store. I walked inside and asked if I could use their
telephone book. Unable to find a listing for the Barber College, I picked out the number of a local beauty
salon, hoping they might tell me if the Barber College was stillin business. The number was busy, so I
decided to wait and try again in a few minutes.
     As the salesman and I stood talking. The front door opened and a young man about twenty came into
the store pushing himself in a wheelchair. "I need a new pair of shoes," said the customer. As he turned
the corner, there was a blanket across his lap. I was shocked to see that the young man had no legs.
     "A gift for a friend?" I asked the boy. "No," he replied. "They are for me," he continued, with a smile
on his face. I just smiled back and watched to see what would happen next.
     "What type of shoes would you like?" asked the clerk "How about a pair of cowboy boots?" The man
pointed to the back wall where three or four pairs of boots were displayed. The salesman, sharply turning,
headed off to the backroom.
     "Isn"t this fun?" the boy asked me. I moved my hand to let him know that I did not understand his
question. "When I was a kid, my parents used to buy me a new pair of shoes every year. That was such
a wonderful feeling. Something I have never forgotten. The smell of the leather and the pride I felt when
I walked around the store showing off my new shoes." 
     The salesman came walking down the aisle with a large box. He sat it down on the floor, took out one
boot and handed it to the young man. The boy closed his eyes. He placed the boot against his nose, and
drew in a large breath. I did not know what to say as tears began to fall on the young man"s cheeks. "What
type of accident did you have?" I asked him "Farm accident," he said, as he tried to clear his voice.
     "Do you want the cowboy boots?" the salesman asked him.
     "Oh, yes!" he answered.
     "I see buying a new pair of shoes still gives you that good feeling you talked about," I told the young
man, as I smiled.
     "Yes it does." he said "And I may have someone, and his feet to share it with some day."
1. Why did the young man want to buy a new pair of shoes?
[     ]
A. Because he bought a pair every year. 
B. Because he wanted to send a new pair to a friend.
C. Because he hoped to keep it for memory.
D. Because he enjoyed the feeling of possessing a new pair.
2. The author writes about the barber shop at the beginning of the article"in order to _____.
[     ]
A. introduce the background of the story
B. see if the Barber College had moved to a new location
C. find a listing for the Barber College
D. pick out a local beauty salon
3. How did the author feel when he saw a young man without legs buying a pair of shoes?
[     ]
A. Unexpected.
B. Proud.
C. Sympathetic.
D. Superior.
4. What can you conclude from the passage?
[     ]
A. The young man was a stubborn person.
B. The author was a man of understanding.
C. The cowboy boots were fashionable then.
D. The disabled envied much those healthy.

Alice wanted her to be   9   so much that she  10  on her coming. Eventually, the girl said, "I don"t have any

     Alice was happy that her friend would be  14  to come and hurried home to ask her Mum  15  she could
lend her friend one of her skirts. To her surprise, her Mum said, "No." The daughter was very  16  and angrily
said to her Mum, " 17  I could, I would give my friend all my clothes." The Mother didn"t understand why her
daughter should have had such an outburst as she"s normally very well  18 .
     Fimlly, Alice explained to her Mother her friend"s  19 . Her Mother immediately changed her mind and said,
"Yes." She also encouraged her daughter not to feel like she should secretly be friends with Jane but to feel

                                 Saving the Planet with Earth-Friendly Bamboo Products
     Jackie Heinricher"s love affair with bamboo started in her backyard. "As a child, I remember playing
among the golden bamboo my dad had planted, and when there was a slight wind, the bamboos sounded
really musical."
     A fisheries biologist, Heinricher, 47, planned to work in the salmon industry in Seattle, where she lived
with her husband, Guy Thornburgh, but she found it too competitive. Then her garden gave her the idea
for a business:She"d planted 20 bamboo forests on their seven-acre farm.
     Heinricher started Boo-Shoot Gardens in 1998. She realized early on what is just now beginning to be
known to the rest of the world. It can be used to make fishing poles, skateboards, buildings, fumiture,
floors, and even clothing. An added bonus: Bamboo absorbs four times as much carbon dioxide as a group
of hardwood trees and releases 35 percent more oxygen.
     First she had to find a way to mass-produce the plants-a tough task, since bamboo nowers create seed
only once every 50 to 100 years. And dividing a bamboo plant frequently kills it. 
     Heinricher appealed to Randy Burr, a tissue culture expert, to help her. "People kept telling us we"d never
figure it out," says Heinricher. "Others had worked on it for 27 years! I believed in what we were doing,
though, so I just kept going."
     She was right to feel a sense of urgency. Bamboo forests are being rapidly used up, and a United Nations
report showed that even though bamboo is highly renewable, as rnany as half of the world"s species are
threatened with dying out. Heinricher knew that bamboo could make a significant impact on carbon emissions
(排放) and world economies, but only if huge numbers could be pmduced. And that"s just what she and Burr
figured out after nine years of experiments-a way to grow millions of plants. By placing cuttings in test tubes
with salts, vitamins,plant hormones, and seaweed gel, they got the plants to grow and then raised them in soil
in greenhouses.
     Not long after it, Burr"s lab hit financial difftculties. Heinricher had rlo experience running a tissue culture
operation, but she wasn"t prepared to quit. So she bought the lab.
     Today Heinricher heads up a profitable multimillion-dollar company, working on species from all over the
world and selling them to wholesalers. "If you want to farm bamboo, it"s hard to do without the young plants,
and that"s what we have," she says proudly.
1. What was the main problem with planting bamboo widely?
[     ]
A. They didn"t have enough young bamboo.
B. They were short of money and experience.
C. They didn"t have a big enough farm to do it.
D. They were not understood by other people.
2. What does Heinricher think of bamboo?
[     ]
A. Fragile and affordable
B. Productive and flexible
C. Useful and earth-friendly
D. Strong and profitable
3. The underlined word "renewable" in Paragraph 6 probably means "_____".
[     ]
A. able to be replaced naturally
B. able to be raised difficultly
C. able to be shaped easily
D. able to be recycled conveniently
4. What do you learn farm the passage?
[     ]
A. Heinricher"s love for bamboo led to her experlments in the lab.
B. Heinricher"s detennimtion helped her to succeed in her work.
C. Heinricher struggled to prevent bamboo from disappearing.
D. Heinricher finally succeeded in realizing her childhood dream.
