| 阅读理解。 | Some years ago I took on a task in a southern county to work with people on public welfare. What I
wanted to do was to show that everybody has the capacity to be self sufficient and all we have to do is to
activate (激励)them. I asked the country to pick up a group of people who were on public welfare, people
from different racial groups and different family groups. I would then see them as a group for three hours
every Friday. I also asked for a little petty cash to work with, as I needed it.
The first thing I said after I shook hands with everybody was, "I"d like to know what your dreams are."
Everyone looked at me as if I were kind of fool.
One woman said to me,"I don"t know what you can do with dreams. The rats are eating up my kids."
"Oh," I said,"That"s terrible. No, of course, you are very much involved with the rats and your kids. How
can that be helped?"
"Well, I could use a new screen door because there are holes in my screen door." I asked, "Is there
anybody around here who know how to fix a screen door?"
There was a man in the group and he said,"A long time ago I used to do things like that but now I have
a terribly bad back, but I"ll try."
I told him I had some money if he would go to the store and but some screening and go and fix the
lady"s screen door. "Do you think you can do that?"
"Yes, I"ll try."
The next week, when the group was seated. I said to the woman, "Well, is your screen door fixed?"
"Oh, yes." she said.
"Then we can start dreaming, can"t we?" she sort of smiled at me.
I said to the man who did the work,"How do you feel?"
He said,"Well, you know, it"s very funny thing. I"m beginning to feel a lot better."
That helped the group to begin to dream. These seemingly small successes allowed the group to see
that dreams were not insane. These small steps began to get people to see and feel that something really
could happen.
Everyone found something. The man who put in the screen door became a handyman. In 12 weeks,
I had all those people off public welfare. I"ve not only done that once, I"ve done that in many times. | | 1. What"s the opinion the author had when he took on the work? | A. People need to be activated by others to make a living.
B. Everyone should not have depended on public welfare.
C. Everyone has the ability to live on without getting public welfare.

D. blame | | 阅读理解。 | We thought we had it all-a beautiful house, three healthy children and one more on the way, two cars,
a couple of four-wheelers for entertainment-and we loved it. Then, the market turned and my husband"s
job at a construction company was gone. The company was closing down for good.
We both started looking for jobs right away, but there weren"t any to be found. With each passing day
we were getting increasingly worried and we continued to work together in order to pull our family through.
The more we pulled together, the closer we got. I felt feelings of admiration for my husband that I hadn"t felt
in years.
That"s why it was so hard for me to watch him blame himself for our present situation. I continually asked
him to stop, but he seemed to want to punish himself for not having a job.
Finally, one afternoon I pulled him aside and said,"We have four healthy children and each other. That"s
what"s important. That makes you a rich man." "But what if we lose the house? They"ll hate me-you"ll hate
me," he replied.
I smiled at him and put my hands on both sides of his face to make him look me in the eye.
"No matter where we live I will be happy -as long as I have you." I smiled again. In all the struggling
together I had found that deep love for him that I had on the day we said"I do".
I could see his shoulders and neck relaxed. He held me close and we were able to talk and plan and dream
together in a way that we hadn"t for quite some time. It was a turning point for us as a couple and a family.
We are still struggling for our better life, but I consider us well-off because we have something that money
can"t buy and no one can take away from us. | | 1. The underlined sentence in the second paragraph means that _____. | A. they became closer as they struggled together
B. they hoped to find jobs in the same company
C. neither of them had the courage to face difficulty
D. they were trying to make their relationship closer | | 2. We can learn from the passage that _____. | A. they both found good jobs at last
B. both of them were worried about joblessness
C. her husband was to blame for the unemployment
D. they didn"t love each other when they got married | | 3. Which of the following can best describe their present life? | A. Bitter but easy.
B. Comfortable and happy.
C. Hard but warm.
D. Well-off and relaxing. | | 4. The best title of the passage might be _____. | A. We Have It All
B. We Find It Again
C. A Perfect Couple
D. A Hard Time | | 阅读理解。 | One Sunday morning in June 1959 my mother walked into my room. "Surprise!" she said, proudly holding
up a yellow dress ."I made it just for you. What do you think?"
I bit my tongue. How could I tell Mom it was the ugliest dress I had ever seen?
"It"s perfect for church," my mother continued delightedly. "I wish someone had made a dress like this for
me."
Too bad you can"t wear it, I thought. But I knew Mom had spent a lot of time on the dress. No one should
refuse.
Unwillingly I put it on.
All through church I prayed (祈祷), Lord, let me get out of here without anyone seeing me. Especially
Dennis Pearce, the boy I had a crush on, one of the coolest boys at Neptune High School. Although we were
in some of the same classes, Dennis had never taken any notice of me. Every time I got near him, I became
tongue-tied. |
At the end of the service I rushed for the door. But I had to wait on the steps while my parents chatted with
their friends. Just a little while longer…Then out of the corner of my eye I saw the Pearces coming near. Before I could escape, Dennis was right beside me.
I started talking, hoping if I kept it up he wouldn"t notice my ugly dress."I"m going to college in September,"
I said.
"That"s great," Dennis replied "I got accepted to police academy (学院)."
"Wow!" I said. Somehow I kept the conversation going. The next thing I knew Dennis had asked me out on a date!
We courted (恋爱) through college, and eventually got married. Months after our wedding I asked Dennis if he remembered the day he had first asked me out.
"Certainly I do," he said."You were always quiet in school. I didn"t think you"d be much fun. But you were
so lovely when we talked on the church steps, I wanted to get to know you better." Maybe that yellow dress
wasn"t what I would have chosen, but that day it was the perfect dress for me. | | 1. Why did she accept such a dress? | A. She was fond of its new pattern.
B. Her Mom just brought it for her.
C. It was proper to go to church in it.
D. She understood her Mom"s love. | | 2. The author tried to carry the dialogue on, hoping _____. | A. she would catch other boys" attention
B. Dennis would get her out for a date
C. Dennis wouldn"t take notice of her dress
D. she could be noticed by Dennis"s parents | | 3. The underlined part "had a crush on"" in Paragraph 6 probably means:"_____ ". | A. loved deeply
B. met by chance
C. looked down on
D. worried about | | 4. What would be the best title for the text? | A. An Ugly Dress
B. A Perfect Dress
C. A Dress for the Church
D. A Dress for the Date | | 完形填空。 | We often talk about ourselves as if we have permanent genetic defects (缺陷) that can never be changed. "I"m impatient.""I"m always behind." "I always put things 1 !" You"ve surely heard them. Maybe you"ve
used them to describe 2 .
These comments may come from stories about us that have been 3 for years-often from 4 childhood.
These stories may have no 5 in fact. But they can set low expectations for us. As a child, my mother said
to me,"Marshall, you have no mechanical (操作机械的) skills, and you will never have any mechanical skills
for the rest of your life." How did these expectations 6 my development? I was never 7 to work on cars
or be around 8 . When I was 18, I took the US Army"s Mechanical Aptitude Test. My scores were in the
bottom for the entire nation!
Six years later, 9 , I was at California University, working on my doctor"s degree. One of my professors,
Dr. Bob Tannbaum, asked me to write down things I did well and things I couldn"t do. On the positive side, I
10 down, "research, writing, analysis, and speaking." On the 11 side, I wrote, "I have no mechanical skills."
Bob asked me how I knew I had no mechanical skills. I explained my life 12 and told him about my 13
performance on the Army test. Bob then asked," 14 is it that you can solve 15 mathematical problems, but
you can"t solve simple mechanical problems?"
Suddenly I realized that I didn"t 16 from some sort of genetic defect. I was just living out expectations that
I had chosen to 17 . At that point, it wasn"t just my family and friends who had been 18 my belief that I was mechanically hopeless. And it wasn"t just the Army test, either. I was the one who kept telling myself,"You can"t do this!" I realized that as long as I kept saying that, it was going to remain true. 19 , if we don"t treat ourselves as if we have incurable genetic defects, we can do well in almost 20 we choose. | ( )1.
