阅读理解。     I shook hands with my father in the truck, and for a long time he looked straight ahead and didn"t say a
word. But I knew he was going to say a little to me. "I can"t tell anything," he finally said. "I never went to
college, and none of your brothers went to college. I can"t say "don"t do this and do that", because everything
is different and I don"t know what is going to come up. I can"t help much with money either, but I think
things will work out."
     He gave me a new check-book. "If things get pushing, write a small check. But when you write one,
send me a letter and let me know how much. There are some things we can always sell." In four years all
the checks I wrote were less than a thousand dollars. My part-time jobs such as reading to the blind student
and sitting with the teachers" kids filled in the financial gaps.
     "You know what you want to be, and they"ll tell you what to take," my father went on. "When you get a
job, be sure it"s honest, and work hard." I knew that soon I would be alone in the big town, and I would be
missing the cool winds and a life where your thinking was done for you.
     Then my dad reached down beside his seat and brought the old, broken Bible that he had read so often,
the one he used when he wanted to look something up in a friendly quarrel with one of the neighbours. I
knew he would miss it. I knew, though, that I must take it.
     He didn"t say, "Read this every morning." He just said, "This can help you if you will let it."
     Did it help? I got through college without being a burden on the family. I have been able to make money
since. 1. What is the writer"s main purpose (目的) in writing this passage?A. To tell the readers his life story.
B. To tell people what kind of person his father was.
C. To let people know how poor he was.
D. To tell the readers what present he got from his father. 2. Why did the father not ask his son not to do this and do that? A. Because he felt quite confident of him.
B. Because he was born from a poor family.
C. Because he was a man of few words.
D. Because he didn"t want to be much too strict with him. 3. What would you learn from this passage? A. How to live by oneself.
B. How to stand on one"s own feet.
C. What a good father should do.
D. What the self-important is like. 4. What may be the proper Chinese meaning for the underlined part in the passage? A. 闲暇时光
B. 学费
C. 经济不足
D. 精神空虚5. What kind of book did the Bible seem to be to the writer"s father? A. It was a book which told you how you should get on well with others.
B. There were many good examples for you to copy in it.
C. It was a book that told you how to get a good job and a good future.
D. It was a good book that could help you when you were in trouble.

     On Christmas morning, Linda wakes up, and tries to imagine the wide-eyed surprise of children in another
household as they unwrap the presents she carefully chose for them. Linda has never met the children, but
that"s all part of the joy of giving as secret Santas, she says.
     "It"s an amazing feeling to buy gifts on an anonymous (匿名的)basis," says Linda. "It brings a whole new
meaning to the holidays."
     Linda and Tony are an American couple living in Toronto, Canada, and Linda did charitable work as a
member of the American Women"s Club of Toronto. As the name suggests, members are U.S. citizens living
in Toronto, who join together for fellowship and commumty service.
     To find her "adopted" family, Linda goes to the local schools and requests a wish list for a family that"s
struggling to survive. Last year she helped a single mother with three children. The mother works as a cleaning
lady in a nursing home.
     "The list is always heartbreaking: They have an opportunity to ask for anything and do just the opposite,
asking for basic clothes or simple toys," she says. "We always buy the kids a new winter coat, hats, and
gloves." She also buys gifts for the parents.
     Last year Linda asked the mother for a second wish list-one that didn"t include the basics. "Every child
should have a Christmas that sticks with them for a lifetime." She purchased iPods for the two older children
and a video game system for the youngest. "I have learned a very valuable lesson in all of this," says Linda.
"Pay attention to what"s going on in your own backyard-no matter where you live."
     The joy of giving as secret Santas is much sweeter when the gift is anonymous. 根据短文内容，回答问题。
1. What reaction does Linda imagine the children will have? (No more than 5 words)
    ____________________________________________________________________________
2. Why did Linda join the American Women"s Club of Toronto? (No more than 10 words)
    ____________________________________________________________________________
3. Why did Linda ask for a second wish list? (No more than 15 words)
    ____________________________________________________________________________
4. What kind of people does "secret Santas" in the passage refer to? (No more than 12 words)

smiled, and so did I.

were left behind. But I will always remember the fine figure (身影) of the girl. She was like a  20  so short,
so bright, like a shooting star giving off so much light that it made the autumn beautiful.
