阅读理解。 | It had been a long time since I had been to Jacksonville, Florida. I had driven to town hoping to see the old barber shop where my hair had been cut as a child. I parked my truck and decided to try and locate a telephone to see if the Florida Barber College had moved to a new location. After walking about a block I saw an open shoe store. I walked inside and asked if I could use their telephone book. Unable to find a listing for the Barber College, I picked out the number of a local beauty salon, hoping they might tell me if the Barber College was stillin business. The number was busy, so I decided to wait and try again in a few minutes. As the salesman and I stood talking. The front door opened and a young man about twenty came into the store pushing himself in a wheelchair. "I need a new pair of shoes," said the customer. As he turned the corner, there was a blanket across his lap. I was shocked to see that the young man had no legs. "A gift for a friend?" I asked the boy. "No," he replied. "They are for me," he continued, with a smile on his face. I just smiled back and watched to see what would happen next. "What type of shoes would you like?" asked the clerk "How about a pair of cowboy boots?" The man pointed to the back wall where three or four pairs of boots were displayed. The salesman, sharply turning, headed off to the backroom. "Isn"t this fun?" the boy asked me. I moved my hand to let him know that I did not understand his question. "When I was a kid, my parents used to buy me a new pair of shoes every year. That was such a wonderful feeling. Something I have never forgotten. The smell of the leather and the pride I felt when I walked around the store showing off my new shoes." The salesman came walking down the aisle with a large box. He sat it down on the floor, took out one boot and handed it to the young man. The boy closed his eyes. He placed the boot against his nose, and drew in a large breath. I did not know what to say as tears began to fall on the young man"s cheeks. "What type of accident did you have?" I asked him "Farm accident," he said, as he tried to clear his voice. "Do you want the cowboy boots?" the salesman asked him. "Oh, yes!" he answered. "I see buying a new pair of shoes still gives you that good feeling you talked about," I told the young man, as I smiled. "Yes it does." he said "And I may have someone, and his feet to share it with some day." | 1. Why did the young man want to buy a new pair of shoes? | [ ] | A. Because he bought a pair every year. B. Because he wanted to send a new pair to a friend. C. Because he hoped to keep it for memory. D. Because he enjoyed the feeling of possessing a new pair. | 2.

"As a child, I remember playing among the golden bamboo my dad had planted, and when there was a slight wind, the bamboos sounded really musical." A fisheries biologist, Heinricher, 47, planned to work in the salmon industry in Seattle, where she lived with her husband, Guy Thornburgh, but she found it too competitive. Then her garden gave her the idea for a business:She"d planted 20 bamboo forests on their seven-acre farm. Heinricher started Boo-Shoot Gardens in 1998. She realized early on what is just now beginning to be known to the rest of the world. It can be used to make fishing poles, skateboards, buildings, fumiture, floors, and even clothing. An added bonus: Bamboo absorbs four times as much carbon dioxide as a group of hardwood trees and releases 35 percent more oxygen. First she had to find a way to mass-produce the plants-a tough task, since bamboo nowers create seed only once every 50 to 100 years. And dividing a bamboo plant frequently kills it. Heinricher appealed to Randy Burr, a tissue culture expert, to help her. "People kept telling us we"d never figure it out," says Heinricher. "Others had worked on it for 27 years! I believed in what we were doing, though, so I just kept going." She was right to feel a sense of urgency. Bamboo forests are being rapidly used up, and a United Nations report showed that even though bamboo is highly renewable, as rnany as half of the world"s species are threatened with dying out. Heinricher knew that bamboo could make a significant impact on carbon emissions (排放) and world economies, but only if huge numbers could be pmduced. And that"s just what she and Burr figured out after nine years of experiments-a way to grow millions of plants. By placing cuttings in test tubes with salts, vitamins,plant hormones, and seaweed gel, they got the plants to grow and then raised them in soil in greenhouses. Not long after it, Burr"s lab hit financial difftculties. Heinricher had rlo experience running a tissue culture operation, but she wasn"t prepared to quit. So she bought the lab. Today Heinricher heads up a profitable multimillion-dollar company, working on species from all over the world and selling them to wholesalers. "If you want to farm bamboo, it"s hard to do without the young plants, and that"s what we have," she says proudly. | 1. What was the main problem with planting bamboo widely? | [ ] | A. They didn"t have enough young bamboo. B. They were short of money and experience. C. They didn"t have a big enough farm to do it. D. They were not understood by other people. | 2. What does Heinricher think of bamboo? | [ ] | A. Fragile and affordable B. Productive and flexible C. Useful and earth-friendly D. Strong and profitable | 3. The underlined word "renewable" in Paragraph 6 probably means "_____". | [ ] | A. able to be replaced naturally B. able to be raised difficultly C. able to be shaped easily D. able to be recycled conveniently | 4. What do you learn farm the passage? | [ ] | A. Heinricher"s love for bamboo led to her experlments in the lab. B. Heinricher"s detennimtion helped her to succeed in her work. C. Heinricher struggled to prevent bamboo from disappearing. D. Heinricher finally succeeded in realizing her childhood dream. | 完形填空。 | I have learned to expect gifts from God in the form of people.
