The doctor did a few 4 . Then he asked Benjamin if he had gone 5 and drunk dirty water. Benjamin said he hadn"t been camping since he was a soldier in the army.
He asked if Benjamin had eaten at any fast food restaurants in the past month, or eaten from one of the 6 lunch trucks in the Los Angeles area. Benjamin said that he ate fast food or lunch truck food every day at noon.
“That’s probably the 7 of your illness. You have hepatitis(肝炎) A, and you most likely got it from a food worker who didn"t wash his hands thoroughly after using the 8. It happens a lot.” “God! I"m not going to die, am I?”

举一反三
The owner of a missing cat is asking for help. “My baby has been missing for over a month now, and I want him back so badly,” said Mrs. Brown, a 56-year-old woman. Mrs. Brown lives by herself in a trailer park near Clovis. She said that Clyde, her 7-year-old cat, didn’t come home for dinner more than a month ago. The next morning he didn’t appear for breakfast either. After Clyde missed an extra-special lunch, she called the police.
When the policeman asked her to describe Clyde, she told him that Clyde had beautiful green eyes, had all his teeth but was missing half of his left ear, and was seven years old and completely white. She then told the officer that Clyde was about a foot high.
A bell went off. “Is Clyde your child or your pet?” the officer suspiciously asked. “Well, he’s my cat, of course,” Mrs. Brown replied. “Lady, you’re supposed to report missing PERSONS, not missing CATS,” said the sppeadeotoned policeman. “Well, who can I report this to?” she asked. “You can’t. You have to ask around your neighborhood or put up flyers,” replied the officer.
Mrs. Brown figured that a billboard would work a lot better than an 8”x11” piece of paper on a telephone pole. There was an empty billboard at the end of her street just off the interstate（州际公路） highway. The billboard had a phone number on it. She called that number, and they told her they could blow up a picture of Clyde (from Mrs. Brown’s family album) and put it on the billboard for all to see.
“But how can people see it when they whiz（快速移动） by on the interstate?” she asked. “Oh, don’t worry, ma’am, they only whiz by between 2 a.m. and 5:30 a.m. The rest of the day, the interstate is so full of commuters that no one moves.” They told her it would cost only $3,000 a month. So she took most of the money out of her savings account and rented the billboard for a month.
The month has passed, but Clyde has not appeared. Because she has almost no money in savings, Mrs. Brown called the local newspaper to see if anyone could help her rent the billboard for just one more month. She is waiting but, so far, no one has stepped forward.
小题1:How long has the cat been missing?| A．More than a month | B．More than two months | | C．More than three months | D．It’s been back. |
小题2:Who did the old lady finally turn to for help?| A．A billboard company | B．The police | | C．The phone company | D．The interstate telephone line |
小题3:How is the old lady like?| A．Stupid | B．Loving | C．Smart | D．Decisive(有决断力的) |
小题4:The underlined word was mistyped（打错了）. But we can still guess it’s most probable meaning:____________.| A．angry | B．surprised | C．happy | D．excited |
小题5:What’s the best title for this passage?| A．An advertisement | B．A missing cat | | C．A pet’s story | D．Life without cat |

完形填空 (共15小题，计15分)
Sometimes we need to remind ourselves that thankfulness is indeed a virtue (美德).
— William Bennett
Thanksgiving Day was coming. The first grade teacher gave her class a fun assignment (作业) — to draw a picture of 1 for which they were thankful.
Most of the class might be considered poor, but still many would 2 the holiday with turkey and other traditional food of the season. These, the teacher thought, would be the subject of most of her students’ art. And they were.
But Douglas made a 3 kind of picture. Douglas was a different kind of boy. He was the teacher’s true child of weak and unhappy. As other children played at 4 , Douglas used to stand close by her side. One could only guess at the pain that Douglas felt behind those sad 5 .
Yes, his picture was different. When he was asked to draw a picture of something for which he was thankful, he drew a 6 . Nothing else. Just an empty hand.
His abstract (抽象的) picture caught the 7 of his classmates. Whose hand could it be? One child guessed it was the hand of a farmer, because farmers 8 turkeys. Another suggested a police officer, because the police protect and 9 people. Still others guessed it was the hand of God, for God feeds us. And so the discussion went on — until the teacher almost forgot the young artist 10 .
When the children had gone on to other assignments, she stopped at Douglas’ desk, bent down, and 11 him whose hand it was. The little boy looked away and murmured, “It’s yours, teacher.”
She recalled the 12 when she had taken his hand and walked with him here or there, as she had the other students. How 13 she had said, “Take my hand, Douglas, we’ll go outside.” Or, “Let me show you how to hold your pencil.” Or, “Let’s do this together.” Douglas was very 14 for his teacher’s hand. Brushing aside a tear, she went on with her work.
The story speaks of more than thankfulness. It says something about teachers teaching and parents parenting and friends showing friendship, and how much it means to the Douglases of the world. They might not always say thanks, but they’ll remember the hand that 15 out.

I have a neighbor we call “Happy”. I have never seen her angry at anything and never heard her say a harsh word to anyone or about anyone.
Happy and her husband Ben, 70, have a huge garden. They spent many happy hours together working on it. Most of the neighbors watched interestingly as Ben doubled the size of their garden. As the cost of food climbed faster than Ben’s beans, we all wished we also had such a large garden. As the rest of us spent our dollars at the market, Happy could be seen picking beans in her back yard.
Last month, Happy and Ben invited most of the neighborhood over for an “all-day food festival”. We were told to bring gloves and arrive very early in the morning. We didn’t know what was about to take place.
By 9:00 am, there were nine of us in the garden picking tomatoes, beans, okra, and squash. By 10:00 am, there was lots of laughter. We shared a lot of stories. By five o’clock, everyone was a little drunk from the wine and beer. After dinner, we played games. As we were leaving, Happy and Ben handed each of us a shopping bag filled with the bounty of the day, already packaged and frozen. What a delightful gift!
Well, the point wasn’t so much about the food. The true gift was a day of friends enjoying one another’s company. None of it would have happened if it had been for Happy and Ben’s garden.
