题型:不详难度:来源:
Driving to a store after a busy day at work, I saw a man standing near the store holding a sign that said, “Will work for food.” I knew at that moment that I was going into the store and   36  him something to eat.
As I   37   the car park, I saw in my car mirror a lady come out from a hairdresser’s and 38  the man. I thought she must be going to give him some   39   or something to help him out. In the store I was   40  to get the things I needed and also the chicken dinner and a soda that I wanted to give the man outside. I hurried out to my car and   41   that I was going to be able to hopefully help this man.
When I drove out of the car park, I couldn’t see the   42 . As I turned the corner I saw the man sitting in a   43  area away from the hairdresser’s and still   44  up the sign. I immediately  45  over and gave the man the dinner and soda and said, “  46  this will get you through today.” He looked at me and said, “Thank you so much!”
As I got back into my car, I looked in the   47   and saw the man swallowing the dinner like he hadn’t eaten for days.
I was so   48  that I was able to help him and at the same time I was so sad that the woman from the hairdresser’s,   49   , had asked the man   50   from her shop. It’s sad to say that   51  I live in a small city where homeless is not as   52   as in larger cities, people are uncomfortable with these people in  53 . All they need to do is lend a helping hand 54  and it could make a huge   55  in their lives

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
“Dad! He took a book without paying!” I yelled .
My father looked surprised. Before the boy could say anything, his mother grabbed his arm and shook it. “Is it true? You stole? Tell me!”
Everyone was quiet. The boy began to cry, and he nodded his head. He pulled out the comic book (漫画书) from under his shirt. 
“Oh, Mr. Kim. I am sorry! My Ted made a big mistake!” Mrs. Diaz told my father. She tried to take the comic book, but Ted wouldn’t let go.
“It’s OK. He can keep it,” my father said with a smile.
“Oh no,” Mrs. Diaz said. “Let me pay right now ...” She dug in her purse. “How much?”
“Three seventy-five.”
Mrs. Diaz’s eyes widened, and she dug deeper. I saw her mouth make a small line. “Three seventy-five?” she asked.  
“It’s OK. You can pay later,” my father said.
“No,” Mrs. Diaz said. She kept looking in her purse. “I have money here.”
I felt bad for yelling, for I realized that Ted had tried to steal the comic book because he didn’t have the money. Maybe the boy could have a job, I thought.
I had an idea.
“What if he worked with me?” I asked. They turned to me.
I said, “He can work with me to pay for the comic book.”
“Good,” my father said smiling at me. Mrs. Diaz nodded. She turned to her son, “You hear? You will work and buy the comic book!”  
“Yes, Mama,” Ted said, hanging his head.
As they left, Ted looked back, and though he still seemed sad, he stuck out (伸出) his tongue at me.
Ted has been working here for two weeks. He has paid for the comic book, but my father says he is such a good worker that he can work with me as long as he wants. We are friends now.

A. didn’t think her son stole the book

A water bearer in India had two large pots, each hung on each end of a pole which he carried across his neck. One of the pots had a crack(裂缝) in it, and while the other pot was perfect and always delivered a full portion of water at the end of the long walk from the stream to the master’s house, the cracked pot arrived only half full.
This went on daily. The perfect pot was proud of its accomplishment. Of course, the poor cracked pot was ashamed of its own imperfection. After two years of what it perceived to be a bitter failure, it spoke to the water bearer one day by the stream.
“I am ashamed of myself, and I want to apologise to you.”
“Why?” asked the bearer. “What are you ashamed of?”
“I have been able, for these past two years, to deliver only half my load because this crack in my side causes water to leak out all the way back. And you do no get full value for your efforts” the pot explained.
The water bearer felt sorry for the old cracked pot, and in his compassion he said, “As we return to the master’s house, I want you to notice the beautiful flowers along the path.”
As they went up the hill, the cracked pot took notice of the sun warming the beautiful wild flowers on the side of the path, and this cheered it a little.
The bearer said, “Did you notice that there were flowers only on your side of the path, but not on the other pot’s side?” That is because I have known about you, and I took advantage of it. I planted flower seeds on your side of the path, and every day while we walked back from the stream, you have watered them. For two years, I have been able to pick these beautiful flowers to decorate my master’s table. Without you being just the way you are, he would not have this beauty to grace his house.”
小题1:Why did the cracked pot feel ashamed?
A.Because it didn’t hold water.
B.Because the water bearer didn’t like it.
C.It couldn’t water the flowers well.
D.Because it could only accomplish half of its load.
小题2:How would the cracked pot feel at the end of the story?
A.Delighted with itself.B.Disappointed with itself.
C.Prouder than the other pot.D.Still ashamed of itself.
小题3:Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A.There were flowers on both sides of the path.
B.The cracked pot was more useful than the perfect one.
C.We sometimes don’t have to mind too much the way we are.
D.The water bearer preferred the perfect pot to the cracked one.
