There was a gardener who looked after his garden with great care.To water his flowers,he used
two buckets.One was a shiny and new bucket.The other was a very old and dilapidated one,which
had seen many years of service,but was now past its best.
Every morning,the gardener would fill up the two buckets.Then he would carry them along the
path,one on each side,to the flowerbeds.The new bucket was very proud of itself.It could carry a
full bucket of water without a single drop spilled (溢出)．The old bucket felt very ashamed because
of its holes:before it reached the flowerbeds,much water had leaked along the path.
Sometimes the new bucket would say,"See how capable I am!How good it is that the gardener
has me to water the flowers every day!I don"t know why he still bothers with you.What a waste of
space you are!"
And all that the old bucket could say was,"I know I"m not very useful,but I can only do my best.
I"m happy that the gardener still finds a little bit of use in me,at least."
One day,the gardener heard that kind of conversation.After watering the flowers as usual,he said,
"You both have done your work very well.Now I am going to carry you back.I want you to look
carefully along the path."
Then the two buckets did so.All along the path,they noticed,on the side where the new bucket
was carried,there was just bare(光秃秃的) earth；on the other side where the old bucket was
carried,there was a joyous row of wild flowers,leading all the way to the garden. |
| 1．What does the underlined word "dilapidated" probably mean? |
A. Dirty.
B. Dark.
C．Wornout.
D．Plainlooking. |
| 2．What was the old bucket ashamed of? |
A. His past.
B．His aging.
C. His manner.
D．His leaking. |
| 3．The new bucket made conversations with the old one mainly to________. |
A. laugh at the old one
B. take pity on the old one
C. show off its beautiful looks
D. praise the gardener"s kindness |
| 4．Why was the old bucket still kept by the gardener? |
A. Because it was used to keep a balance.
B. Because it stayed in its best condition.
C. Because it was taken as a treasure.
D. Because it had its own function. |

And__1__otherwise assigned(指定)a seat by the teacher, I always__2__to sit at the back of the
classroom.
All this__3__after I joined a sports team. It began when a teacher suggested I try out for the
basketball team. At first I thought it was a crazy__4__because I didn"t have a good sense of balance,
nor did I have the__5__to keep pace with the others on the team and they would tease me. But for
the teacher who kept insisting on my "__6__for it", I wouldn"t have decided to give it a try.
Getting up the courage to go to the tryouts was only the__7__of it! When I first started__8__the
practice sessions, I didn"t even know the rules of the game, much__9__what I was doing. Sometimes
I"d get__10__and take a shot at the wrong direction-which made me feel really stupid.__11__, I
wasn"t the only one "new" at the game, so I decided to__12__on learning the game, do my best at
each practice session, and not be too hard on myself for the things I didn"t__13__"just yet"．
I practiced and practiced. Soon I knew the__14__and the "moves". Being part of a team was
fun and motivating. Very soon the competitive__15__in me was winning over my lack of confidence.
With time, I learned how to play and made friends in the__16__-friends who respected my efforts
to work hard and be a team player. I never had so much fun!
With my__17__selfconfidence comes more praise from teachers and classmates. I have gone
from "__18__" in the back of the classroom and not wanting to call attention to myself,__19__raising
my hand-even when I sometimes wasn"t 100 percent__20__I had the right answer. Now I have more
selfconfidence in myself. |

When milk arrived on the doorstep
When I was a boy growing up in New Jersey in the 1960s,we had a milkman delivering milk to
our doorstep.His name was Mr.Basille.He wore a white cap and drove a white truck.As a 5yearold
boy,I couldn"t take my eyes off the coin changer fixed to his belt.He noticed this one day during a
delivery and gave me a quarter out of his coin changer.
Of course,he delivered more than milk.There was cheese,eggs and so on.If we needed to change
our order,my mother would pen a note-"Please add a bottle of buttermilk next delivery" -and place
it in the box along with the empty bottles.And then,the buttermilk would magically(魔术般)appear.
All of this was about more than convenience.There existed a close relationship between families
and their milkmen.Mr.Basille even had a key to our house,for those times when it was so cold outside
that we put the box indoors,so that the milk wouldn"t freeze.And I remember Mr.Basille from time to
time taking a break at our kitchen table,having a cup of tea and telling stories about his delivery.
There is sadly no home milk delivery today.Big companies allowed the production of cheaper milk,
thus making it difficult for milkmen to compete(竞争)．Besides,milk is for sale everywhere,and it may
just not have been practical to have a delivery service.
Recently, an old milk box in the countryside I saw brought back my childhood memories.I took it
home and planted it on the back porch(门廊)．Every so often my son"s friends will ask what it is.So
I start telling stories of my boyhood,and of the milkman who brought us friendship along with his milk. |
| 1．Mr.Basille gave the boy a quarter out of his coin changer ________. |
A．to show his magical power
B．to pay for the delivery
C．to satisfy his curiosity
D．to please his mother |
| 2.What can be inferred from the fact that the milkman had the key to the boy"s house? |
A．He wanted to have tea there.
B．He was a respectable person.
C．He was treated as a family member.
D．He was fully trusted by the family. |
| 3．Why does home milk delivery no longer exist? |
A．Nobody wants to be a milkman now.
B．It has been driven out of the market.
C．Its service is getting poor.
D．It is forbidden by law |
| 4．Why did the author bring back home an old milk box? |
A．He missed the good old days.
B．He wanted to tell interesting stories.
C．He needed it for his milk bottles.
D．He planted flowers in it. |

The measure of a man"s real character is what he would do if he knew he would never be found
out. Thomas Macaulay
Some thirty years ago, I was studying in a public school in New York. One day, Mrs Nanette
O"Neill gave an arithmetic__1__to our class. When the papers were__2__,she discovered that
twelve boys had made the same mistakes throughout the test.
"There is really nothing new about__3__in the exams. Perhaps that was why Mrs O"Neill

the blackboard the__8__words by Thomas Macaulay. She then ordered us to__9__these words
into our exercisebooks one hundred times.
I don"t__10__about the other eleven boys. Speaking for myself I can say: it was the most important
single__11__of my life. Thirty years after being introduced to Macaulay"s words, they__12__seem to
me the best yardstick(准绳), because they give me a__13__to measure myself rather than others.
__14__of us are asked to make__15__decisions about nations going to war or armies going to battle.
But all of us are called__16__daily to make a great many personal decisions.__17__the wallet, found
in the street, be put into a pocket or turned over to the policeman? Should the__18__change received
at the store be forgotten or__19__? Nobody will know except__20__. But you have to live with
yourself, and it is always better to live with someone you respect. |
