After the earthquake hit northeast Japan on March 11, 2011, many touching stories that I saw with my own eyes happened around me.
I had to walk home since all the 31 had stopped after the quake. On my way home I 32 an old Japanese lady at the bakery shop who was giving out free bread, which made my heart 33 . A middle-aged Japanese man was holding a sign that said, “Please use my 34 .” He was 35 his house for people to go to the restroom.
My friend wanted to 36 others. He stood in the cold with a sign “If you are okay with a motorcycle, I will 37 you to your home.” And then I saw him take one gentleman home, all the way to a faraway place!
Then the next day I drove to 38 my car with gas. There was a 39 of gas now and many gasoline stations were either closed or had very 40 lines. I got 41 since I was behind 15 cars. Finally, when it was my 42 , the man smiled and said, “ 43 the situation, we are only giving $30 worth gas per person. Is that alright?” “Of course, I’m glad that we are all able to 44 ,” I said. His smile gave me so much 45 .
I saw a man at the evacuation (疏散) centre 46 when people brought food to him. It was the first time in three days that food had been brought to their center. However, after he wiped the tears, his next 47 surprised me, “ I am very 48 that we are provided with food. But people in the city next to us haven’t 49 any food at all.

举一反三
I was being interviewed by a senior manager for a big company, I told him honestly that the principal reason that I was interviewing with them was my need to keep my family in Boston. My wife had recently died of a heart attack. A job in Boston would help me reduce some pain for my 16-year-old daughter and me. It was important to me to keep her present high school.
Bruce, the interviewer, was politely kind, but he didn’t search any further. He acknowledged(承认) my loss and, with great respect, moved on to another subject. After the next round of interviews, Bruce took me to lunch with another manager. Then he asked me to take a walk with him. He told me that he had lost his wife. And, like me, he had also been married 20 years and had 3 children. I realized that he had experienced the same pain as I had and it was almost impossible to explain to someone who had not lost a loved one. He offered his business card and home phone number and suggested that, should I need help or just want someone to talk to, I should feel free to give him a call. Whether I got the job or not, he wanted me to know that he was there if I ever needed help.
From that one act of kindness, when he had no idea if we could ever see each other again, he helped our family deal with one of life’s greatest losses. He turned the normally cold business interview process into an act of caring and supporting for another person in a time of extreme need.
小题1:According to the passage, the interviewer, Bruce, was very _______.| A．generous | B．kind | C．happy | D．mean |
小题2:The underlined word "principal" in the first paragraph probably means _____.| A．main | B．unimportant | C．necessary | D．possible |
小题3:Which of the following statement is NOT true?| A．The writer’s daughter was studying in Boston at that time. | | B．Both the writer and the interviewer experienced the same pain. | | C．Bruce was a senior manager of a big firm. | | D．Bruce wanted to make friends with him because he gave him his business card and home phone number. |

The orderly came back in a few minutes with a rifle（步枪）and some Burmans. He told us that the elephant was in the rice fields below, only a few hundred yards away. As I started forward practically the whole population of the quarter flocked out of the houses and followed me. They had seen the rifle and were all shouting that I was going to shoot the elephant. It was fun to them, as it would be to an English crowd; besides, they wanted the meat. It made me a little uneasy. I had no intention of shooting the elephant—I had merely sent for the rifle to defend myself—and it is always uneasy to have a crowd following you. I marched down the hill, looking and feeling a fool, with the rifle over my shoulder and an ever-growing army of people knocking and pushing at my heels. Beyond the huts there was a rice field a thousand yards across, muddy from the first rains. The elephant was standing eight yards from the road. He took not the slightest notice of the crowd. He was tearing up bunches of grass, beating them against his knees to clean them and feeding them into his mouth.
As soon as I saw the elephant I knew with perfect certainty that I ought not to shoot him. It is a serious matter to shoot a working elephant — it is comparable to destroying a huge and costly piece of machinery. There, peacefully eating, the elephant looked no more dangerous than a cow. I thought then and I think now that his attack of “must” was already passing off, in which case he would merely wander harmlessly about. Moreover, I did not in the least want to shoot him.
But at that moment I glanced round at the crowd that had followed me. It was an immense crowd, two thousand at the least and growing every minute. I looked at the sea of the faces above the colorful clothes—faces all happy and excited over this bit of fun, all certain that the elephant was going to be shot. They were watching me as they would watch a magician about to perform a trick. They did not like me. But with the magical rifle in my hands I was momentarily worth watching. And suddenly I realized that I should have to shoot the elephant after all. The people expected it of me and I had got to do it; I could feel their two thousand wills pressing me forward. And it was at this moment that I first felt the hollowness, the uselessness of the white man"s control in the East. Here was I, standing in front of the unarmed crowd—seemingly the leading actor; but in reality only a puppet (傀儡). I understood in this moment that when the white man turns ruler of complete power it is his own freedom that he destroys.
小题1:The people were glad to think the elephant was to be shot mainly because ______.| A．it had damaged their homes and crops | | B．it would provide them with meat | | C．it would make them feel entertained | | D．it was spoiling their rice fields |
小题2:When the writer saw the elephant he felt .| A．foolish | B．afraid | C．pitiful | D．confident |
小题3:The writer realized that he had to shoot the elephant because .| A．shooting elephants is a serious problem | | B．everybody expected it of him | | C．he did not wish to disappoint the rulers | | D．he had to show how guns are fired |
小题4:What does the writer intend to tells us when he tells the story?| A．Leading actors are sometimes foolish puppets. | | B．Government for white people are useless. | | C．Power can sometimes turn people imprisoned. | | D．Unarmed crowds are in control of everything. |

Success is often measured by the ability to overcome adversity（逆境）. But it is often the belief of others that gives us the courage（勇气）to try.
J. K. Rowling, author of the Harry Potter book series, began writing at age 6. Her good friend-Sean became the first person to encourage her and help her build the confidence that one day she would be a very good writer.
“He was the first person with whom I really discussed my serious ambition（志向） to be a writer. He was also the only person who thought I was bound to（注定）be a success at it, which meant much more to me than I ever told him at the time.”
Though there were many difficulties, Rowling continued her writing, particularly fantasy stories. But it wasn"t until l990 that she first came up with the idea about Harry Potter. As she recalls（回忆）, it was on a long train journey from London to Manchester that “the idea of Harry Potter simply fell into my head. To my great disappointment, I didn"t have a pen with me, and I was too shy to ask anybody if I could borrow one. I think, now, that this was probably a good thing, because I simply sat and thought, for four (delayed train) hours, and all the details came up in my brain, and this thin, black-haired, bespectacled（戴眼镜的）boy who didn"t know he was a wizard became more and more real to me.”
That same year, her mother died after a ten-year fight with serious diseases, which deeply affected her writing. She went on to marry and had a daughter, but separated from her husband shortly afterwards.
During this time, Rowling was diagnosed with depression（诊断患有抑郁症）. Unemployed, she finished her first novel in area cafes, where she could get her daughter to fall asleep. After being refused by l2 publishing houses, the first Harry Potter novel was sold to a small British publishing house.
Now with seven books that have sold nearly 400 million copies in 64 languages, J. K. Rowling is the highest earning novelist in history. And it all began with her friend’s encouragement as well as her ambition to write.
小题1: Who believed J. K. Rowling was to be a good writer?| A．Her friend Sean. | B．Her mother. | | C．Her daughter. | D．Her husband. |

小题3: She felt disappointed on the train because_________.| A．her train was delayed for four hours | | B．she didn"t have a pen with her | | C．her mind suddenly went blank | | D．no one would offer her help |
