A young student was one day taking a walk with a professor. As they went along, they saw 21 in the path a pair of old shoes, which they 22 belonged to a poor man who was employed in a field close by.
The student turned to the professor, saying, “Let us play the man a 23 : we will hide his shoes and wait to see his 24 when he cannot find them.”
“My young friend,” answered the professor, “we should never amuse ourselves at the 25 of the poor. But you are rich, and may give yourself a much greater pleasure 26 the poor man. Put a coin into each shoe, and then we will hide ourselves and watch 27 the discovery affects him.”
The student did so, and they both placed themselves behind the bushes close by.
The poor man soon finished his work, and came 28 the field to the path where he had left his shoes. While 29 his foot into one of his shoes, he 30 something hard, 31 he bent down and found the coin. Astonishment and 32 were seen upon his face. He then looked around himself on all sides, but no person was to be seen. He now put the money into his pocket, and went on to put on the other shoe; but his surprise was 33 on finding the other coin. His feelings 34 him; he fell upon his 35 , looked up to heaven and thanked God aloud.
The student stood there 36 affected, and his eyes filled with tears. “Now,” said the professor, “are you not much better 37 than if you had played your 38 trick?” The youth replied, “You have taught me a lesson which I will never forget. I feel now the 39 of those words, which I never understood before: It is more blessed to 40 than to receive.”

举一反三
However, fear can be a good thing. It is a natural, healthy reaction to danger. In fact, sometimes we are afraid of things that aren’t dangerous, such as public speaking, failing a test, or being rejected. These unhealthy fears can keep us from fulfilling our dreams. So how can we successfully face our fears?
First, admit what you fear and then share it with someone you trust. Perhaps you worry that others would look down on you if they know what you fear, but you might be surprised at how many other people share the same fears. Learning you are not the only one who fears something will give you self-esteem(自尊心) a push. Second, ask yourself,“What is the worst-case scenario（最坏的情况）?”This question can help you gain perspective（洞察力）.If you think about it, the worst might not be that bad, after all. Compared with the fear of losing a contest or being turned down, the regret of having missed opportunities can be even harder to bear. Even worse, you will never know what you might have accomplished. Finally, take small steps toward conquering your fears. If you fear public speaking, start by giving a small talk to a few people. If your talk doesn’t go well, try again. Each small success will increase your confidence and persistence is one of the keys to success.
You might never completely conquer your fear of certain things, but what is important is that you can bring yourself to do what you fear. True bravery is feeling afraid but doing what you have to do anyway. It’s also true that you struggle with fear and don’t let your fears stop you from getting the most out of life.
小题1:This passage mainly discusses .| A．the harm of fear to success | B．varieties of fear | | C．ways to handle fear | D．necessity of fear |
小题2:In the writer’s opinion, what might be even worse than losing a contest?| A．Being turned down by others. | | B．Forgetting what to say in public speaking. | | C．Sharing ideas with others. | | D．Missing an opportunity. |
小题3:According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?| A．Not everything we are afraid of is dangerous. | | B．It’s encouraged to share your fear with others. | | C．It’s difficult to overcome some fears. | | D．What you fear should be worse than what you think. |
小题4:It can be learned from the passage that a really courageous person .| A．does what is necessary to do | | B．always achieves what he or she wants | | C．has no fear in his or her life | | D．never loses a contest |

I have always loved kids. However, the children here at Shanti Bhavan are unlike any that I have ever met. They have a strong drive and determination and are thankful for the wonderful opportunity they have been given. While at Shanti Bhavan, I taught 3rd graders writing, language, and literature, 8th, 9th, and 10th graders public speaking, 9th and 10th graders basketball, and piano lessons. I found teaching the children was the most rewarding experience of my life. They are really fast learners and really have an interest in knowledge. It was easy to get on with such polite, well-mannered, and hard-working students. They dream big and I only hope that I can continue to be a part of helping them achieve their goals.
As far as my day-to-day living went, I was perfectly comfortable here and came to consider it as a second home. My room was clean and comfortable and the staff could not have been nicer.
In addition, I really appreciated the support of all the teachers. They were so welcoming and kind that it truly cleared away my fears and culture shock. They often gave me advice and befriended me and I owe much to them for their warmth.
I honestly feel that Shanti Bhavan is the most beautiful place on earth. It has love and learning, and I am very sad to be leaving. I am looking forward to my return to this newly found family as soon as possible. Thank you so much Miss Beena and Mrs. Law for all of your love and support. The experience that I worked with them will always come into my mind. This has been the greatest experience of my life.

小题2:What does the author think of the students at Shanti Bhavan?| A．Generous | B．Clever | C．Brave | D．Funny |
小题3:Which of the following words can best describe the author’s day-to-day living at Shanti Bhavan?| A．Lonely | B．Simple | C．Disappointed | D．Comfortable |

My grandparents built and lived in a small 600-square-foot cottage for most of their adult lives. They actively practiced living a 21 life. Saving and avoiding overspending was their life 22 for their whole life. 23 seeking satisfaction through material items, they chose to spend 24 time together, with family, and in nature.
Over the years my grandparents noticed 25 changes in their community. Every year more farmland was 26 to build larger and larger homes. With houses’ prices 27 , many of their neighbors sold their little homes and lands. 28 only their small house was still on the block, surrounded by a sea of tall buildings. Countless family members 29 my grandparents to expand their home. But they didn’t want a bigger place and were 30 with what they had.
In many ways, I’ve modeled my life after my grandparents. Through their example I learned an important 31 : It is absolutely possible to live a small and fulfilling life.
My grandparents lived in a small home, but they owned a(n) 32 garden. They loved gardening deeply because it not only 33 their grocery bill, but also improved their health and gave them a(n) 34 to be outside. They said, “ 35 you live in a small home or an apartment, you don’t have to give up gardening.”
My grandparents avoided lifestyle creep(攀比) by paying for their own home in cash and building it themselves. They also recycled and 36 everything. For instance, they drove the same car for over 15 years and didn’t buy anything new until their stuff was 37 worn out.
My grandparents taught me that living well on 38 isn’t about feeling bad for myself. 39 , it’s about giving yourself the time, freedom, and money to seek your dreams. You know: Becoming debt free, living in a smaller home, and others are a few ways to 40 your life.
