Roy died at an old age with many memories. His life was full of both good and bad memories, but he 26 to remember mostly the good. The bad memories that broke his heart and that he 27 with friends, involved the big war－World War II. So many things about his war experience he remembered 28 great detail.
Roy survived the attack on Normandy－he was part of the second wave that landed. He 29 with him the memories of water mixed with the blood of fallen soldiers. He experienced 30 , sweat, blood, fire and salt water just to get to the beach. In terror-filled moments that would forever change his life and the history of our world, his life was robbed of innocence（天真） 31 the realities of war engulfed（吞噬）him.
Not too many months later, he found himself cold and 32 . Close to being completely 33 from air supplies（供给）because of the weather, Roy and his fellows hung on to what little hope they could have. Then Christmas morning came, the weather cleared long enough for supplies to be 34 and word to spread that other troops would soon be there.
Many of the young men who began with Roy did not make it home 35 . They gave their lives to fighting against the Nazi. Those who did survive would never be the same. Many of them were the most patriotic（爱国的）people you would 36 meet, but most of them 37 war. They had experienced it. They knew its final realities－things got blown up while people were killed, and robbed of their beloved ones.
It is Memorial Day in the United States today. We all pray for an end for the world’s need for young men and young women to be placed in harm’s way. We also need to remember those who paid the huge 38 of wars－costs not counted in dollars, but in lost lives, broken hearts, forgotten innocence, broken families, and terrible memories. And as we remember to 39 those who paid this awful price, we also remember in hopes to see an end to war itself.
Please, in their honor, don’t forget their sacrifices（牺牲）. Please, for our world’s sake, don’t forget to pray for 40 .

举一反三
I can still remember the first day when I met my best friend. She had just moved into the neighborhood and her grandmother brought her down to meet me. I hid behind my mother and she hid behind her grandmother, scared to look at each other.
Soon, we lost the shyness and started playing with each other, bike riding to each other’s house and having sleepovers. In 7th grade she was going through family problems. However, every summer we would always sit at each other’s house and watch movies on TV and talk about all the boys we liked.
It was last year when I noticed the problem. She suffered from clinical depression（抑郁症）, and had to go to a hospital during the day. I was very sorry for her at first. But with the late night calls, and meeting each other halfway up the street at midnight, we still stayed in touch. I wanted to be there for her since her new best friend left her, and I knew I still cared about her like a sister.
Yesterday she came to me and said this. “I never knew what a best friend was until you were the only person that would stop me from cutting myself; the only person that ever made me feel better about myself and my problems. You didn’t know this but I was trying to kill myself that very night you called me and I was crying. I owe you so much, and you didn’t even know you were helping me. ”
We both cried. And I guess a kind of lesson from my life so far is to never give up your friends. Even if they aren’t as cool as others, or people think they are crazy, they need someone there. If you leave them, you will only be very sorry. So if friends need you, and you care for them, you should be always there for them.
小题1:Why did the two girls hide behind their family members when they first met?| A．Because they were playing a game. | | B．Because they didn’t like each other. | | C．Because they quarreled before. | | D．Because they were both shy. |
小题2:What would have happened to her friend if the author had not cared about her?| A．She would have lost her new best friend. | | B．She would have killed herself that night. | | C．She would have run away from her family. | | D．She would have stayed in hospital for a long time. |
小题3:What lesson does the author learn from the story?| A．Always care for your friends. | | B．Don’t care about others’ opinions. | | C．Never owe your friends too much. | | D．Try to be as cool as others. |

For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.
Blessed indeed is the man who hears many gentle voices call him father!
Lydia M. Child
When I was a little girl, my father had a time-honored tradition. Following my bedtime story, he would give me a nose 36 , and whisper the most wonderful words into my ear. “Michelle, of all the little girls in the whole wide world . . .” he would pause.
“ Yes, Daddy?”
“ How did your mommy and I get so 37 to get the best one?”
38 he had time to finish, I would say, “You got me!” And then he would continue , “The best little girl in the whole wide world, and we got you.” He would end with a bear hug and 39 kiss to my forehead.
Years passed and my father never missed a night, even when I thought he should have. After my basketball team was 40 , he came into my room.
“ Michelle, of all the basketball players in the whole wide world,” he paused.
“ Yes, Daddy?” I stared at the floor.
“ How did your mom and I get so lucky to get the best one?”
“ You didn’t.”
“ Of course we did, Michelle. We have you.”
After I 41 from college, I became engaged. My father never missed a night to call or leave a message 42 me how special I was to him. I even wondered if he would continue calling after I got 43 , but he didn’t. The daily calls I had taken for granted all my life ended the day he died from cancer, only weeks before my wedding. I deeply missed 44 the days with my father.
Standing behind the white church doors, I waited for the wedding march to begin. Before we walking down the aisle, my brother 45 inside his pocket and handed me an ivory napkin. Inscribed (题写) were the words:
Of all the precious 46 in the whole wide world, how did Mark get so lucky to marry the best one? He married you, Michelle, and he is so lucky! I am so proud of you, my little girl.
Love,
Dad
Without doubt , it was the best wedding gift I 47 , One I would never forget. My father showered me with his gifts every day of his life. How did I get so lucky?

“The more you learn, the more you earn,” said the pop singer Cyndi Lauper as she accepted her high school diploma(证书) , at the age of 35 ! Although Cyndi made it without a high school degree, most people don"t. In the USA today, about 75% of jobs need some education or technical training further than high school. The lowest wage earners in the USA are those without high school degrees; college graduates(毕业生) outearn those without a college education. People with master"s degrees（硕士学位）outearn those with only a bachelor (学士学位); and the highest incomes of all are earned by people with advanced professional or academic degrees. These generalizations explain why most of young Americans go to college. However, despite the averages, more diplomas don"t always mean more money. Many skilled blue-collar workers, salespeople, business executives, and entrepreneurs(企业家)outearn college professors and scientific researchers. And great athletes and entertainers outearn everyone else!

小题3:Why do most American young people go to college? | A．Because their parents force them to go to college. | | B．Because they can"t get a job if they don"t go to college. | | C．Because the situation of the society make them go to college. | | D．Because they like studying. |

小题5:Which of the following is right? | A．If you don"t have a diploma, you can"t earn money. | | B．Those who have diplomas always earn more money than those who don"t have diplomas. | | C．Less diplomas always mean less money. | | D．Great athletes may earn more money than other people. |

When I was in my early twenties, I moved away from my home state of Wisconsin to attend graduate school. I chose to go to the University Of Arizona in Tucson and 36 there. Upon landing in early June, I was shocked by the lack of 37 and the burning desert heat. After less than two days in that 38 I called my parent to question whether I had made the 39 choice and to announce that I was 40 considering coming home. My father, in a calm and 41 voice, indicated that I always had a 42 . I could always come home and be welcome there. But in fact, we both 43 I wouldn’t come home at the time. Needless to say, I chose to 44 .
Many years have passed. My father’s 45 words remain with me. Knowing that I can always 46 , I’ve been able to 47 several challenging situations -unemployment, divorce and even the 48 of my only son. I have also used these words in many cases where others need to know that someone 49 and that they do have a choice.
Whether 50 is earthly, spiritual, or some sense of calm, knowing that we can come home will be just enough to 51 us on our way.
It 52 me, in a way, of the prodigal son（回头的浪子） who found 53 and love upon returning home. While we don’t have to be like him and hit bottom in life, it is good to know that we can wander and experience pains and 54 in life but we still have a home where love, support and comfort 55 .

Mom had lived in a nursing home for the past three and a half years, suffering the increasing effects of dementia(老年痴呆).

In her last six months, we had very little __31___ of her responding, though a few times she __32__us. So, when we called her, we would just __33___ to tell her about our lives, things we were doing, things our children and grandchildren were doing. The __34__ would be short.

__36__ I expected Mom’s death, it was still bad news to hear. She is __37___. Even one-way conversations were more __38__ than no conversations.
So now, all we have are __39__ and a few physical items that were hers or gifts from her. On Mother’s Day this year we will send no __40__, no gift, make no call. But we will remember her.
