Little Tommy was doing very badly in math. His parents had tried everything-tutors, cards, special
learning centers-in short, everything they could think of. Finally they took Tommy to a catholic (天主教的)
school.
After the first day, little Tommy came home with a very serious look on his face. He didn"t kiss his
mother hello. Instead,he went straight to his room and started studying. Books and papers were spread
(铺开) out all over the room and little Tommy was hard at work. His mother was surprised. She called
him down to dinner and as soon as he finished eating, he went back to his room, without a word. In no
time he was back hitting the books as hard as before. This went on for some time, day after day while
the mother tried to understand what was happening.
Finally,little Tommy brought home his report card. He quietly put it on the table and went up to his
room and hit the books. His mom looked at it and to her surprise, little Tommy got an A in math. She
could no longer hold her curiosity (好奇心). She went to his room and asked, "Son, what was it? Was it
the nuns (修女)?"
Little Tommy looked at her and shook his head, "No."
"Well then," she asked again. "WHAT was it?"
Little Tommy looked at her and said, "Well, on the first day of school, when I saw that man nailed
(钉) to the plus sign (加号), I knew they weren"t joking." |

Henry Ford was the eldest son of a farmer. He grew up on a farm in Michigan Like most farmers at
that time, his father William hoped his eldest son would help him on the farm, but Henry was not interested
in farm work at all. He did everything that he could to avoid (避免) it. Once he wrote. "What a waste it is
for a man to spend hours behind a slowly moving horse."
However, Henry was not a lazy boy. He liked to do mechanical (机械的) work very much When he was
twelve, he became quite interested in clocks and watches. He mended clocks and watches for his friends in
his bedroom.
Later he took a job as a mechanic (技工) in Detroit. He began to show great interest in steam engines
(蒸汽发动机) at this time. In 1812, he built his first car. In 1908, he built a famous "Model T". This car was
so popular at that time that it was unchanged (没有改变) for twenty years. Five years after that he started
the Ford Motor Company. |

Dear Sir or Madam,
Last Thursday, I traveled in the 8:40 am train from Glasgow to London King"s Cross and I was very
unhappy with the service provided by your company.
The train was forty minutes later leaving Glasgow. Although the guard apologized, we were not given
any reasons for the delay. We then had further delays when the train crew changed. We had to wait another
thirty minutes. As a result, I missed my flight from London Heathrow to Frankfurt and had to wait for
several hours.
What"s more, the service in the train was also very poor. The trip took over five hours. Unluckily, there
was no dining car in the train and only a bar with soft drinks. The worst of all, the air conditioning broke
down halfway through the trip and it got hotter and hotter in the train. However, there was no apology for
this, and before we reached King"s Cross, the temperature was over 40℃. In view of the poor service, I
feel I am entitled to compensation. I am looking forward to hearing from you.
Yours faithfully,
David Robertson @silverline.com> |

One night, a hotel caught fire and people inside ran out in their night clothes. Two men stood outside
and looked at the fire.
"Before I came out," said one, "I ran into some of the rooms and found a lot of money. People don"t
think about money when they are afraid. When you leave money in a fire, it burns, so I took all the bills
that I could find. No one will be poorer because I took them."
"You don"t know my work," said the other.
"What"s your work?"
"I am a policeman."
"Oh!" cried the first man. He thought quickly and said, "and do you know my work?"
"No," said the policeman. The first man said, "(1)_____________________________________________."
(B)

D. With | | 阅读理解。 | Years ago, I lived in a building in a large city. The building next door was only a few feet away from
mine. There was a woman who lived there, whom I had never met, yet I could see her seated by her
window each afternoon, sewing or reading.
After several months had gone by, I began to notice that her window was dirty. Everything was unclear
through the dirty window. I would say to myself, "I wonder why that woman doesn"t wash her window.
It really looks terrible."
One bright morning I decided to clean my flat, including washing the window on the inside.
Late in the afternoon when I finished the cleaning. I sat down by the window with a cup of coffee for
a rest.What a surprise! Across the way, the woman sitting by her window was clearly visible. Her
window was clean!
Then it drawed on me. I had been criticizing (批评) her dirty window,but all the time I was watching
hers through my own dirty window.
That was quite an important lesson for me. How often had I looked at and criticized others through the
dirty window of my heart, through my own shortcoming (缺点).
Since then, whenever I wanted to judge (评判) someone, I asked myself first, "Am I looking at him
through my own dirty window?" Then I try to clean the window of my own world so that I may see the
world about me more clearly. | | 1. The writer couldn"t see everything clearly through the window because ______. | | [ ] | A. the woman"s window was dirty
