As she walked round the large shop, Edith realized how difficult it was to choose a suitable Christmas 1 for her father.
She wished that he were as easy to 2 as her mother, who was always 3 with perfume (香水). Besides, shoping at this time of the year was a most 4 job. People 5 on your feet, pushed you with their shoulders and almost 6 you over in their hurry in order to find something cheap ahead of you.
Partly to have a rest, Edith paused in front of a counter, where some beautiful ties were on show . "They are real silk," the shop assistant told her with a smile trying to 7 her to buy one. But Edith knew from past 8 that her choice of ties hardly ever pleased her father.
She moved on slowly and then, quite by chance, 9 where a small crowd of men had gathered round a counter. She found some fine pipes on sale and the shapes were very beautiful. Edith did not hesitate for long, although her father 10 smoked a pipe once in a while, she believed this was 11 to please him.
When she got home, with her small but 12 present hidden in her handbag, it was time for supper and her parents were already at table. Her mother was in great 13 . "Your father has at last decided to stop smoking," she told her daughter happily. Edith was so 14 that she could not 15 a single word.

When the children had gone on to other tasks, she __49__ at Douglas’ desk, bent down, and asked him whose hand it was. The little boy looked away and __50__, “It’s yours, teacher.”
She __51__ the times she had taken his hand and walked with him here and there, __52__ she had other student. How often had she said, “Take your hand, Douglas, we’ll go outside.” Or, “Let me show you how to hold your pencil.” Or, “Let’s do this together.” Douglas was most thankful for his teacher’s hand.
Brushing __53__ a tear, she went on with her work.
The story speaks of __54__ 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 __55__.

When I was three years old, my parents discovered I was totally deaf. But instead of sending me to a school for the deaf, they decided to “mainstream” me. All of my peers and teachers world have normal hearing.
I was the only deaf child at Blue Creel Elementary School. From almost the first day there, the other kids made fun of me mainly because of my hearing aid and the way I talked. And I also had difficulty with most of my school work.
When the other kids made fun of me, I was sure that I was a bad person. I saw myself as a boy who wasn’t smart enough to keep up with the class.
Mrs. Jordan, my 5th grade teacher, changed all of that with a simple three-word phrase.
One morning, she asked the class a question. I read her lips from my front-row seat and immediately raised my hand because I was sure I had the right answer. But when she called on me, I was afraid. Here was an opportunity to impress the powerful teacher and show her I was worthy of her love. Maybe even impress my classmates a little. I didn’t want to blow it. despite my fears, I took a deep breath and answered Mrs. Jordan’s question.
I will never forget what happened next. Mrs. Jordan enthusiastically slammed （跺动）her right foot on the floor and turned her tight hand around in full circle until it pointed directly at me. With sparking eyes and a wide smile she cried, “THAT’S RIGHT STEPHEN!”
For the first time in my young life, I was a star. I sat a little taller in my chair.
From that day forward, my grades and speech improved greatly. My popularity among my peers increased. It was all because Mrs. Jordan believed in me and wasn’t afraid to express it. “THAT’S RIGHT STEPHEN!”
小题1:What does the underlined word “mainstream”(in Para 1) mean?| A．Encourage a disabled child to live a normal life. | | B．Include a disabled child in an ordinary class. | | C．Treat a disabled child with respect. | | D．Teach a disabled child at home. |
小题2:It can be inferred that when entering Blue Creek Elementary School, the writer .| A．was not clever | B．could not focus on his study | | C．lacked confidence | D．got along well with other kids |
小题3:When the writer answered Mrs. Jordan’s question, he .| A．trembled with fear | B．stayed calm | | C．was nervous | D．was excited |
小题4:From his experience, the writer may conclude that .| A．the right words could change someone’s life | | B．each of us has the courage to be great | | C．all great heroes made mistakes | | D．each day is a lucky day |

In February 2006, Lydia Angyiou and her two sons were walking through their village in northern Canada. The sound of children shouting made her turn around. To her horror, Lydia saw a 700-pound polar bear behind her eyeing her seven-year-old son. Getting between the bear and her child, Lydia yelled at the children to run away. She then began hitting and kicking the animal as hard as she could. A neighbor who heard all the noise came and shot the bear. But everyone agreed it was Lydia who had saved her children’s lives. A local policeman described it this way: “… I guess when your back is up against the wall, … we come up with super-human strength.”
Where does this “super-human strength”, courage and quick thinking come from? Experts say it comes from stress! In stressful situations, the body releases chemicals that prepare it to take action. These chemicals give people the speed and strength they need to fight danger or run away from it.
When we think of stress, we usually think of its negative effects. Studies, though, show that moderate levels of stress are actually helpful. In fact, the way we perform is usually affected by the amount of stress we feel.
Stress causes the brain to release adrenaline(肾上腺素) which in turn increases our energy and excitement. The chemical gives us clearer minds and helps us to do more. This is why some people say they work better under a deadline.
Adrenaline that is not released for long periods of time can cause us to increase and strengthen our abilities instead of weakening them. We sometimes turn out our very best work when we push ourselves to the limit. Stress can also make us more confident. Handling small amounts of stress now prepares us for handling serious situations in the future. Who knows? Today’s stress may even prepare for the next polar bear that comes along!
小题1:In the first paragraph, the case of Lydia Angyiou is mentioned to______.| A．introduce the topic to be followed | | B．remind us of the unexpected danger of life | | C．praise Lydia Angyiou for her bravery | | D．show the importance of super-human strength |
小题2:What does the policeman probably mean by saying “your back is up against the wall”?| A．You are helped. | B．You are inspired. | | C． You are confident. | D．You are cornered. |
小题3:What would be the best title for the passage?| A．Brave Mother | B．The Cause of Stress | | C．The Benefit of Stress | D．Super-human Strength |
