题型：广东省模拟题难度：来源：
Nikki spent a very small amount of time with her mum and sister when she was about 6 years old, but
soon after contact stopped when communication broke down between her parents.
She never felt she wanted to find her family while she was growing up. But now with a husband and
a son, she decided it was the right time.
Nikki didn"t know where to start, but her husband"s mum had used 192. com for finding people
before and recommended it to her. With the help of her son, she started by searching for her sister"s
full name on the electoral roll (选民登记册) without a location, because she had no idea where she
lived, even her date of birth. From that one search, the site returned two results listed in the area they
used to live.
Nikki decided to call the first number. To her absolute surprise, it was her long lost sister! So after
20 years, it was one phone call that helped her contact her sister! Her sister then passed her number
on to her mother, who called Nikki straight away, and it was like they had never been apart.
Her mum was so glad to find out Nikki was well that they arranged to meet everyone that Saturday
(3 days after the phone call) where she was reunited with her sister and met her two nephews for the
first time. Nikki also found out she had a half (同父异母的) sister and brother.
When talking about the reunion, Nikki said, "192.com made finding my long lost family very easy.
I was not on any social networking sites before and surprisingly neither was my sister or mum, so we
would never have found each other that way."
Nikki will be spending her first Christmas tighter with the other side of her family this year.

C. Her name.
D. Her telephone number.
B. Nikki is about 26 years old now
C. Nikki"s sister lives with her mum together

very much. He argued with anybody, and about anything. Sometimes the people whom he argued
with were as clever as he was, but often they were not.
He did not mind arguing with stupid people at all: he knew that he could never persuade them to
agree, because they could never really understand what he was saying, and the stupider they were,
the surer they were that they were right; but he often found that stupid people said very amusing things.
At the end of one argument which George had with one of these less clever people, the man said
some-thing which George has always remembered and which has always amused him. It was, "Well,
Sir, you should never forget this: there are always three answers to every question: you answer, my

Some of the _ 5 _ times of my life have been spent here. It"s ironic(讽刺的), but the _ 6 is the
only place where I feel that I don"t have to _ 7_ to be someone I"m not. Like many teenagers, I almost

When I"m on stage, everything else vanishes(消失). All the worries and _11_ of the outside world

After his performance, Lie Zi asked Bo Hun Wu Ren: "What do you think of my archery skill?"
Bo Hun Wu Ren laughed: "This is still only a(an) 4 shot, not quite the perfect shot yet. Let"s
climb up the mountain and stand on the 5 overhanging the abyss(深渊). We"ll see if you can 6 an
arrow."
Wu Ren then led Lie Zi up to a place eight hundred feet above a deep valley. Wu Ren turned his 7
to the edge of the cliff, 8 moving his feet until he was standing with his heels extending over the edge,
and 9 Lie Zi to join him. Lie Zi was so 10 that he threw himself down on the ground, sweating
from head to toe.
Bo Hun Wu Ren raised the bow and shot the arrows from his bow, with no 11 missed. Then he
looked at Lie Zi and said 12 . " The best archer can look up at the blue 13 , down at the nether
(地下的) world and to the eight poles of the earth but still keep 14 . Here on this mountain, you"re
already 15 , so your chances of hitting your mark are very slim".
