     "You will never walk again. You will have to use a wheelchair. " I heard his   1   fall heavily on my
ears, numbing my soul. If I had never felt hopeless before, I felt hopeless then.
     The car accident had left me unconscious. When   2 , I found both legs in casts (石膏). While I had
other serious injuries, my   3   were my first concern. Working as a special needs teacher and busy and
active by nature, I couldn"t imagine being   4   in a wheelchair.
     Lying in my bed, I wondered how I   5   give my ten-year-old son hope that mom would  6  . He"d
been cheerful on every visit, but I saw   7   in his eyes. He needed the ray of hope that I would not be in
a wheelchair forever.
     Just maybe, I thought, I could use this experience to teach him what to do when   8   strikes.
     It didn"t take me long to become impatient with my limited movements and even with the pace (进度)
the doctors were willing to go with me. I was   9   to learn everything they showed me.
     Every night in my private room, as soon as I knew I wouldn"t be   10   or discovered, I would move
myself from the bed to the floor,   11   on to the bed rail (床栏杆) for dear life, and slowly putting my
weight  12   my feet. After several weeks of such difficult   13  , my strength and confidence continued
to   14 .
     The time came to share my achievements with the person most   15   to me. One night, when I heard
my   16   greet the nurses at the station, I dragged (拖,拉) myself up. As he opened the door, I took a
few small steps.   17  , he could only watch as I turned and started back to bed. All of the pain, the fear,
and the struggle   18   as I heard the words I had longed to hear, "Mommy, you can walk!"
     I am now able to walk alone, sometimes using a stick. I am able to take public transportation to shop
and visit friends. My life has been blessed with (有幸得到) many   19   of which I am proud. But none
has ever brought me the satisfaction and joy   20   by those four little words of my son.

阅读理解。     After a year in America, I have learned some interesting American expressions. Many people believe
that money makes the world go around. I do not agree with the idea. But I do admit that money can make people do strange things. Let me tell you about a person I once knew who liked to gamble (赌博).
     My friend Bob had a problem because he liked to gamble at all costs. He would play at any time and
at any price. Sometimes my friend would clean up. He would win a lot of money on one card game.
Other times my friend would simply break even. He neither won nor lost money. But sometimes Bob
would lose his shirt. When this happened, my friend would have to go into debt and owe people money.
     Recently, Bob turned to crime after losing all his money. In his job, he kept the books for a small
business. He supervised (监管) the records of money earned and spent by the company. Although my
friend was usually honest, he decided to cook the books. He illegally changed the financial records of the
company. This permitted him to make a fast buck - he made some quick, easy money dishonestly.
     Bob used the money he stole from his company to gamble again. Quickly he was back on his feet,
returning to good financial health. His company, however, ended up in the red, owing lots of money.
     It did not take long before his dishonesty was discovered. The company investigated and charged him with stealing. He ended up in jail. Today, I would bet my bottom dollar that my friend will never gamble
again. I would bet all I have that he learned his lesson from gambling.1. When a person will "lose his shirt" (para. 2) in gambling, we mean that ________.A. he will win all the money to the gambling table
B. he will neither win nor lose money
C. he decides to give up gambling
D. he will lose all his money2. If a company doesn"t run well, it will ________.A. be back on its feet
B. end up in the red
C. make a fast buck
D. break even3. What job does Bob do?A. A salesman.
B. A typist.
C. An accountant.
D. A secretary.4. What is the purpose of the passage?A. To talk about the danger of gambling.
B. To explain some American expressions related to money.
C. To prove that money can make people do strange things.
D. To explain the writer"s attitude towards money.

阅读理解。     The cold wind cut through my enthusiasm (热情) as a tourist in Washington D.C., so I entered the
nearest restaurant for warmth. I ordered a coffee, and began observing people.
     At that time, I saw a man seated nearby and from his eager eyes, I realized that he noticed the
delicious food. His tired body and worn clothes shouted, "Homeless, homeless!"
     "How long has it been since he ate last time?" I wondered. I expected him to approach me for a
handout (施舍物). But he never did. A silent war broke out in my head-one side was telling me to mind
my own business, and the other was urging me to offer him some food.
     While my inner debate moved on, a well-dressed young couple walked up to him. "Excuse me, sir,
"the husband began. "We just finished eating, and our appetites (胃口) weren"t as big as we had thought. We hate to waste good food. Can you help us out and put this to use?" He gave the man some food.
"Thank you. Merry Christmas!" the man replied. The man carefully watched his new food, and was about
to eat.
     Something that happened next shocked me. An old man in pants, an old jacket and open shoes
entered the hall and walked towards us. My neighbor saw the situation. Setting aside his meal, he stood
up and guided the old man to the table.
     "Hi, my name is Jack," he said, "and one kind person brought me this meal. I just finished eating and
hate to waste good food. Can you help me out?" The old man answered gratefully, "Sure, but only if you
go halfway with me on that sandwich."
     I left the restaurant that day feeling warmer than I had ever thought possible.1.The author entered the nearest restaurant to         .A. escape the coldness outside
