阅读理解。     A boy was born to couple after eleven years of marriage. They were a loving couple and the boy
was the apple of their eyes. When the boy saw around two years old, the husband saw a medicine bottle
open. He was late for work so he asked the wife to cap the bottle and put it in the cupboard. The mother,
preoccupied in the kitchen, totally forgot the matter.
     The boy saw the bottle and playfully went to it and, fascinated with its color, drank it all. It happened
to be a poisonous medicine meant for adults in small dosages (剂量). When the child fell down, the mother
hurried him to the hospital, where he died. The mother was unconscious. She was terrified how to face
her husband.
      When the distraught (心烦意乱的) father came to the hospital and saw the dead child, he looked at
his wife and uttered just four words.
     What do you think those four words were? The husband just said,"I love you, darling".
     The husband"s totally unexpected reaction is proactive (积极主动的) behavior. The child is dead. He
can never be brought back to life. There is no point in finding fault with the mother. Besides, if only he
have taken time to put the bottle away, this would not have happened. No point in attaching blame. She had
also lost her only child. What she needed at that moment was consolation and sympathy from the husband.
That is what he gave her. 
     Sometimes we spend time asking who is responsible or who"s to blame, whether in a relationship, in a
job or with the people we know and miss out on the warmth in human relationships we could receive by
giving each other support. After all, shouldn"t forgiving someone we love be the easiest thing in the world
to do? Treasure what you have. Don"t multiply pain, anguish and suffering by holding onto forgiveness.
     If everyone could look at life with this kind of perspective, there would be fewer problems in the world.
Take off all your envies, jealousies, unwillingness to forgive, selfishness, and fears and you will find things
are actually not as difficult as you think. 1. The meaning of the underlined phrase is ____.A. an adult
B. a healthy boy
C. the love of the parents
D. a naughty boy 2. Why was the mother terrified to face the husband?A. Because she was afraid of her husband.
B. Because she thought that was her fault.
C. Because she poisoned her son herself.
D. Because she wanted to kill herself. 3. What does this passage mainly talk about? A. Be careful to do everything.
B. Forgive what you shouldn"t forgive.
C. Treasure what you have now.
D. Envy can mislead the way you go. 4. Which column of a paper can we find this article? A. Financial aid to students.
B. Grand view of science.
C. Enjoying the countryside view.
D. Life and society.

I needed to   3   myself as well, as it   4  .
     One evening Danac had   5   a friend, Natalie, to play with her. Their favorite was a children"s   6   
game called Go Fish. That evening,   7   Natalie left, Danae came to me and said, "Mommy, I"d like to give
these to Natalie tomorrow. They"re her favorites."

because then our   9    wouldn"t be complete. "But I really want her to have them!" Danae  10   . I thought
perhaps she didn"t understand that when she gave something away, it was gone  11 . So I tried again, saying,

she smiled and said."Well, that"s okay, I want her to have them anyway."
     What could I say to that? I sat  16   for a moment and then I realized I had been trying for so long to  17 
 her to share. Did it  18   that our Go Fish set would be   19  ? What mattered was that my daughter was
learning the  20  of giving, that she was thinking about others instead of herself, and that she was trying to
make her friends happy. Isn"t that what life is all about?

     Last year, I took a sightseeing trip to Washington, DC.I heard a voice say, "Can you help me?"
When I turned around, I saw an elderly blind woman with her hand extended. Immediately, I pulled
out all of my change and placed it on her hand without even looking at her. But the blind woman
smiled and said, "I don"t want your money. I just need help finding the post office."
     In an instant, I realized what I had done.I acted with prejudice―I judged another person simply
for what I assumed she had to be. I hated what I saw in myself.
     The thing I had forgotten about myself is that I am an immigrant.I left Honduras and arrived in
the US at the age of 15.I started my new life with two suitcases,my brother and sister. Through the
years, I have been a doorkeeper, cashier and pizza delivery driver among many other humble (卑微的)
jobs,and eventually I became a network engineer.
     In my own life, I have experienced prejudice. I remember a time―at the age of 17―when I was a
busboy, I heard a father tell his little boy that if he did not do well in school, he would end up like
me.
     But now, living in my American middle-class lifestyle, it is too easy to forget my past, to forget
who I am, where I have been,and to lose sight of where I want to be going.That blind woman on the
streets cured me of my blindness. She reminded me of my belief in humility (谦虚).  By the way, I helped
that lady to the post office. I hope to thank her for the priceless lesson.
1. How did the writer give the blind woman money?
A. In a modest way
B. In a polite way
C. In an impatient way.
D. In a painful way
2. According to the text, the writer ______.
A. still lives a poor life
B. was busy with his work
C. was born in Honduras
D. was a native of Washington D.C.
3. According to the text, the author most probably agrees that one should ______.
A. be nice to the elderly and the disabled
B. try to experience different kinds of culture
C. treat others equally with love and respect
D. think about one"s past as often as possible
4. What would be the best title of the text?
A. A priceless lesson
B. An act of prejudice
C. A sightseeing trip
D. A humble moment

     Do you want to live with a strong sense of peacefulness, happiness, goodness, and self-respect? The
collection of happiness actions broadly categorized as "honor" help you create this life of good feelings.
     Here"s an example to show how honorable actions create happiness.
     Say a store clerk fails to charge us for an item. If we keep silent, and profit from the clerk"s mistake,
we would drive home with a sense of sneaky excitement. Later we might tell our family or friends about
our good fortune. On the other hand, if we tell the clerk about the uncharged item, the clerk would be
grateful and thank us for our honesty. We would leave the store with a quiet sense of honor that we might
never share with another soul.
     Then, what is it to do with our sense of happiness?
     In the first case, where we don"t tell the clerk, a couple of things would happen. Deep down inside we
would know ourselves as a type of thief. In the process, we would lose some peace of mind and self-respect.
We would also demonstrate that we cannot lie trusted, since we advertise our dishonor by telling our family
and friends. We damage our own reputations by telling others. In contrast, bringing the error to the clerk"s
attention causes different things to happen. Immediately the clerk knows us to be honorable. Upon leaving
the store, we feel honorable and our self-respect is increased. Whenever we take honorable action we gain
the deep internal rewards of goodness and a sense of nobility.
     There is a beautiful positive cycle that is created by living a life of honorable actions. Honorable thoughts
lead to honorable actions. Honorable actions lead us to a happier existence. And it"s easy to think and act
honorably again when we"re happy. While the positive cycle can be difficult to start, once it"s started, it"s
easy to continue. Keeping on doing good deeds brings us peace of mind, which is important for our happiness.
1. According to the passage, the positive action in the example contributes to our _____.
A. self-respect
B. financial rewards
C. advertising ability
D. friendly relationship
2. The author thinks that keeping silent about the uncharged item is equal to _____.
A. lying
B. stealing
C. cheating
D. advertising
3. The phrase "bringing the error to the clerk"s attention" (in para. 5) means _____.
A. telling the truth to the clerk
B. offering advice to the clerk
C. asking the clerk to be more attentive
D. reminding the clerk of the charged item
4. How will we feel if we let the clerk know her mistake?
A. We"ll be very excited.
B. We"ll feel unfortunate.
C. We"ll have a sense of honor.
D. We"ll feel sorry for the clerk.
5. Which of the following can be the best title of this passage?
A. How to Live Truthfully
B. Importance of Peacefulness
C. Ways of Gaining Self-respect
D. Happiness through Honorable Actions
