阅读理解。     There was a story many years ago of a school teacher-Mrs. Thompson. She told the children on the first
day that she loved them all the same. But that was a lie. There in the front row was a little boy named Teddy
Stoddard. He didn"t play well with the other children and he always needed a bath. She did not like him.
     Then Mrs. Thompson got to know that Teddy was actually a very good boy before the death of his mother.
Mrs. Thompson was ashamed of herself. She felt even worse when, like all her other students, Teddy brought
her a Christmas present too. It was his mother"s perfume (香水).
     Teddy said, "Mrs. Thompson, today you smell just like my Mom used to." After the children left she cried
for at least an hour. On that very day, she stopped teaching reading, writing and math. Instead, she began to
teach children.
     Mrs. Thompson paid particular attention to Teddy. The boy"s mind seemed to come alive. The more she
encourages him, the faster he improved. By the end of the sixth grade, Teddy had become one of the smartest
children in the class.
     Six years went by before she got a note from Teddy. He wrote that he had finished high school, third in his
class, and she was still the best teacher he ever had in his whole lift. He went to college. Mrs. Thompson got
two more letters from him with the last one signed, Theodore F. Stoddard, M.D. (医学博士).
     The story doesn"t end there. On his wedding day, Dr. Stoddard whispered in Mrs. Thompson"s ear, "Thank
you, Mrs. Thompson, for believing in me. You made me feel important and showed me that I could make a
difference."
     Mrs. Thompson, with tears in her eyes, whispered back, "Teddy, you have it all wrong. You were the one
who taught me that I could make a difference. I didn"t know how to teach until I met you." 1. What did Mrs. Thompson do on the first day of school? A. She made Teddy feel ashamed.
B. She asked the children to play with Teddy.
C. She changed Teddy"s seat to the front row.
D. She told the class something untrue about herself. 2. What did Mrs. Thompson find out about Teddy?A. He often told lies.
B. He was good at math.
C. He needed motherly care.
D. He enjoyed playing with others. 3. In what way did Mrs. Thompson change? A. She taught fewer school subjects.
B. She became stricter with her students.
C. She no longer liked her job as a teacher.
D. She cared more about educating students. 4. Why did Teddy thank Mrs. Thompson at his wedding? A. She had kept in touch with him.
B. She had given him encouragement.
C. She had sent him Christmas presents.
D. She had taught him how to judge people.

阅读理解。     Adrian"s "Amazing Race" started early when his parents realized that he, as a baby, couldn"t hear a thing,
not even loud noises. In a special school for the hearing-impaired (听觉受损的), he learned sign language and
got to mix with other disabled children. However, the sight of all the disabled children communicating with one
another upset his mother. She wanted him to lead a normal life. So after speaking to an advisor, she sent him to
private classes where he learned to read lips and pronounce words.
     Later on, Adrian"s parents decided to send him to a regular school. But the headmaster tried to prevent them
from doing so, saying regular school couldn"t take care of a special needs students. His parents were determined
to take the risk and push him hard to go through his work everyday because they wanted to prove that, given
the opportunity, he could do anything. Adrian made the grade and got accepted. It was a big challenge. The pace
(节奏) was faster so he had to sit at the front of the class and really pay attention to the teacher, which wasn"t
always easy. But he stuck to it and did a lot of extra work after school.
     The efforts made by Adrian and his parents paid off. Adrian graduated with good grades and got into a top
high school. He also achieved a lot in life outside school. He developed a love for the outdoors and went to Nepal
to climb mountains. He even entered the World Yacht Race 05/06-being the first hearing-impaired Asian to do so.
     But none of these achievements would have been possible without one of the most important lessons from
his mother." "If you believe in yourself and work hard, you can achieve great results." She often said. 1. How did Adrian communicate with other children in the special school? A. By speaking.

I was in a rush as always, but this time it was for an important date I just couldn"t be late for! I found myself at a checkout counter behind an elderly woman seemingly in no hurry as she paid for her groceries. A PhD student with not a lot of money, I had hurried into the store to pick up some flowers. I was in a huge rush, thinking of my upcoming evening. I did not want to be late for this date. We were in Boston, a place not always known for small conversation between strangers. The woman stopped unloading her basket and looked up at me. She smiled. It was a nice smile-warm and reassuring-and I retuned her gift by smiling back. "Must be a special lady, whoever it is that will be getting those beautiful flowers," she said. "Yes, she"s special," I said, and then to my embarrassment, the words kept coming out. "It"s only our second date, but somehow I am just having the feeling she"s "the one," " jokingly, I added, "The only problem is that I can"t figure out why she"d want to date a guy like me." "Well, I think she"s very lucky to have a boyfriend who brings her such lovely flowers and who is obviously in love with her," the woman said. "My husband used to bring me flowers every week-even when tines were tough and we didn"t have much money. Those were incredible days; be was very romantic and-of course- I miss him since he"s passed away." I paid for my flowers as she was gathering up her groceries. There was no doubt in my mind as I walked up to her. I touched her on the shoulder and said "You were right, you know. These flowers are indeed for a very special lady." I handed the flowers and thanked her for such a nice conversation. It took her a moment to realize that I was giving her the flowers I had just purchased. "You have a wonderful evening," I said. I left with a big smile and my heart warmed as I saw her smelling the beautiful flowers. I remember being slightly late for my date that night and telling my girlfriend the above story. A couple of years later, when I finally worked up the courage to ask her to marry me, she told me that this story had helped to seal it for her-that was the night than I won her heart.

Four people in England, back in 1953, stared at photo 51. it wasn"t much-a picture showing a black X. But three of these people won the Nobel prize for figuring out what the photo really showed-the shape of DNA. The discovery brought fame and fortune to scientists James Watson, Francis crick, and Maurice Wilkins. The fourth, the one who actually made the picture, was left out. Her name was Rosalind Franklin. "She should have been up there," says historian Mary Bowden. "if her photo hadn"t been there, the others couldn"t have come up with the structure." one reason Franklin was missing was that she had died of cancer four years before the Nobel decision. But now scholar doubt that Franklin was not only robbed of her life by disease but robbed of credit by her competitions. At Cambridge university in the 1950s, Watson and Crick tried to make models by cutting up shapes of DNA"s parts and then putting them together. In the meantime, at king"s college in London, Franklin and Wilkins shone X-rays at the molecule (分子). The rays produced patterns reflecting the shape. But Wilkins and Franklin"s relationship was a lot rockier than the celebrated teamwork of Watson and Crick. Wilkins thought Franklin was hired to be his assistant. But the college actually employed her to take over the DNA project. What she did was produce X-ray pictures that told Watson and Crick that one of their early models was inside out. And she was not shy about saying so. That angered Watson, who attacked her in return. Mere inspection suggested that she would not easily bend. Clearly she had to go or be put in her place. As Franklin"s competitors, Wilkins, Watson and Crick had much to gain by cutting her out of the little group of researchers, says historian Pnina Abir-Am. In 1962 at the Nobel prize awarding ceremony, Wilkins thanked 13 colleagues by name before he mentioned Franklin. Watson wrote his book laughing at her. Crick wrote in 1974 that "Franklins was only two steps away from the solution." No, Franklin was the solution. "She contributed more than any other player to solving the structure of DNA. She must be considered a co-discoverer," Abir-Am says. This was backed up by Aaron Klug, who worked with Franklin and later won a Nobel Prize himself. Once described as the "Dark Lady of DNA", Franklin is finally coming into the light.
1. What is the text mainly about?
A. The disagreements among DNA researchers. B. The unfair treatment of Franklin. C. The process of discovering DNA. D. The race between two teams of scientists.
2. Watson was angry with Franklin because she _____.
A. took the lead in the competition B. Kept her results from him C. proved some of his findings wrong D. shared her data with other scientists
3. Why is Franklin described as "Dark Lady of DNA"?
A. She developed pictures in dark labs. B. She discovered the black X-the shape of DNA. C. Her name was forgotten after her death. D. Her contribution was unknown to the public.
4. What is the writer"s attitude toward Wilkins, Watson and Crick?
A. Disapproving. B. Respectful. C. Admiring. D. Doubtful.
