A woman repeated a bit of gossip (流言) about a neighbour. Within a few days the whole neighbourhood knew the story. The neighbour was deeply hurt. Later the woman responsible (负责) for spreading the gossip learned that it was completely untrue. She was very sorry and went to a wise old man to find out what she could do to repair the harm. "Go to the marketplace," he said, "and buy a chicken, and have it killed, then on your way home, pluck (拔) its feathers and drop them one by one along the road." Although surprised by this advice, the woman did what she was told. The next day the wise man said, "Now, go and collect all those feathers you dropped yesterday and bring them back to me." The woman followed the same road, but she was so discouraged when she found the wind had blown all the feathers away. After searching for hours, she returned with only three in her hand. "You see," said the old man, "it"s easy to drop them, but it"s impossible to get them back. So it is with gossip. It doesn"t take much to spread a gossip, but once you do, you can never completely undo the wrong." |

I was cleaning out an old box when an old card caught my eye: Queen City Casket Company. "What is it?" I wondered. I turned it over. There, in faded ink, was a hand-written address. Immediately my mind traveled many years back. I was nine years old, walking down the cold and wet streets of Springfield, with a bag of magazines on my shoulder. That day, I came to the company finally, whose owner, Mr Rader, had always taken me there to ask his workers if they wanted any magazines. Shaking off the rain like a wet dog, I went into Mr Rader"s office. After a quick look he took me over to the fireplace. Noticing the hole in the top of my shoe, he said, "Come with me!" and pulled me into his car. We stopped in front of a shoe store. Inside, a salesman fitted me with the finest pair of shoes I had ever seen. I felt about 10 feet tall when I got up in them. "We"d like a pair of new socks, too." Mr Rader said. Back in his office, Mr Rader took out a card, wrote something on it and handed it to me. With tearful eyes, I read, "Do to others as you would have them do to you." He said kindly, "Jimmy, I want you to know I love you." I said good-bye, and for the first time I sensed a piece of hope that things would be better. With people like Mr Rader in the world, there was hope, kindness and love, and that would always make a difference. |

D.sometimes | 阅读下面短文,根据所给语境,按要求完成下列各题。 | One morning, a blind boy sat on the steps of a building with a hat by his feet. He held a sign which said, "I am blind. Please help me." There were only a few coins in the hat. A man was walking by. He took out a few coins from his pocket and dropped them into the hat. He then took the sign, turned it around, and wrote some words on it. ①He put the sign back so that everyone who walked by could see the new words. Soon the hat began to fill up. ②More people were giving money to the blind boy. That afternoon the man who had changed the sign came to see how things were.The boy recognized his footsteps and asked, "Are you the one who changed my sign in the morning? What did you write?"" The man said, "I only wrote the truth. I said what you said but in a different way." What he had written was, "Today is a beautiful day, but I cannot see it." Do you think the first sign and the second sign were saying the same thing? Of course both signs told people the boy was blind. But the first sign simply told people to help by putting some money in the hat. The second sign told people that they were able to enjoy the beauty of the day. But the boy could not enjoy it because he was blind. There are at least two lessons we can learn from this simple story. The first is: Treasure what you have. Someone else has less. Try your best to help those who need your help. The second is: Be creative. Think differently. There is always a better way. | 1. 将①处的句子翻译成汉语。 2. 将②处的句子改成被动语态。 3. 根据短文内容,完成下面的句子。(每空一词) The words written by the kind man had the blind boy"s words on the sign. |
