Armed with two over-packed suitcases, we arrived at the airport just in time for my flight. As I watched her unload my luggage, I could see the 36_ in her eyes. One last hug and a final good-bye, and I would be on my way to a new life 37 .“ You’d better go or you’ll miss your flight,” she said.
“I’ll 38 you,” I replied, and with those words I 39 . By the time I reached the customs, I was 40 . While boarding the plane I was still crying. I did not have the 41 to put my bag in the overhead locker, so I put it on the 42 seat next to mine.
Born just fifteen months apart, we not only looked alike, we were alike. We both had that same mix of 43 and fear of all things unknown to us. One sunny summer day I was playing outside when she came 44 to me and said, “ Want to come to the attic(阁楼)？” The answer was always “ 45 ”. We were frightened of the attic but also 46 by its smells and sounds. Together we would get through masses of dust and look through a lot of boxes _47 we found what we needed.
The plane shook 48 and my bag fell onto the floor. My aspirin, hairbrush and some other things were 49 on the floor. I _50 over to gather them up when I saw a(an) _51 little book in the middle of my belongings. It was a diary.
Immediately I 52 my sister’s handwriting. “Hi, Sis. What a day it has been today. You let me know that you are moving abroad…” Only _53 did I realize that my sister had been 54 a diary for the past month.
I read about my sister’s comings and goings during the flight. Even though a large ocean 55 us, at some point it felt like she was actually there.

举一反三
My son. The phrase felt difficult and strange the first time I said it, and I had to practice it a thousand times． I started saying the words to myself the day when the ultrasound told me we were having a baby．
Finally, my son was born.
The nurse came out of the delivery room, holding a tiny, howling human being wrapped in a white sheet, his small hands and delicate fingers shaking nervously. “Baby Sanchez?” she asked, looking at the room full of expectant fathers.
I stood up, holding my breath． She showed me my baby． “My son,” I whispered. The little guy screamed, “waaaaaaaaaah.”
But in my heart I heard him cry out, “Daaaaaaad!” I don’t care if everyone in the room will swear they didn’t hear my baby say that. I called him, “My son,” and he called me “Dad,” and that’s that.
People ask me, “What did you feel at that moment?” I can’t even begin to answer. I’m a writer yet I try hard to find the right words. Joyful isn’t powerful enough. Bliss(狂喜) is not sweet enough. Peaceful isn’t calm enough. Happy isn’t tense enough.
After my son was taken away to the nursery, I sat down and shut my eyes. But tears escaped them away. Then out of the blue, my 80-year-old father entered, and we embraced.
“Dad,” I whispered.
“My son,” my heart heard him saying.
Suddenly the past 33 years folded into the present and I was now the baby bundled in white, with my father standing over me.
“My son,” I imagined him saying.
“Daaaaaaaaaad!” I cried my little lungs out.
At that point, I knew I was going to be a great father. The old man in front of me seemed to agree. He smiled and we walked out of the room in search of the tiny human being that would change our lives for ever.
小题1:Which of the following statement is TRUE according to the passage?| A．His son called him “Dad” when the writer called him “My son”． | | B．All the people didn’t hear the baby say except the writer． | | C．Sanchez is the writer’s family name． | | D．The baby was taken away because the nurse found there was a mistake． |
小题2:The author couldn’t tell how he felt at the moment because ________．| A．he was a writer | | B．he was too excited | | C．he was too nervous | | D．it’s a feeling too complex to express |
小题3:We can learn the following from the passage EXCEPT that ________．| A．the author got his first baby | | B．he probably had a lung disease | | C．the author didn’t really hear “Daaaaad” from his baby | | D．the baby would change the author’s life |
小题4:Why was the writer sure he was going to be a great father?| A．Because his son is so gifted． | | B．Because he had much experience in bringing up children． | | C．Because his father promised to help him． | | D．Because his father had already set him a good example． |

He was 11 years old and went fishing every chance he got from the dock at his family’s cabin on an island in the middle of a New Hampshire lake.
On the day before the bass season opened, he and his father were fishing early in the evening, catching sunfish and perch (鲈鱼) with worms. Then he tied on a small silver lure（鱼饵） and practiced casting. The lure struck the water and caused colored ripples in the sunset, then silver ripples as the moon rose over the lake.
When his peapole doubled over, he knew something huge was on the other end. His father watched with admiration as the boy skillfully worked the fish alongside the dock.
Finally, he very gingerly lifted the exhausted fish from the water. It was the largest one he had ever seen, but it was a bass. The boy and his father looked at the handsome fish, gills playing back and forth in the moonlight. The father lit a match and looked at his watch. It was 10 P.M.-- two hours before the season opened. He looked at the fish, then at the boy.
“You’ll have to put it back, son,” he said.
“Dad!” cried the boy.
“There will be other fish,” said his father.
“Not as big as this one,” cried the boy.
He looked around the lake. No other fishermen or boats were anywhere around in the moonlight. He looked again at his father. Even though no one had seen them, nor could anyone ever know what time he caught the fish, the boy could tell by the clarity of his father’s voice that the decision was not negotiable（可协商的）. He slowly worked the hook out of the lip of the huge bass and lowered it into the black water.
The creature swished its powerful body and disappeared. The boy suspected that he would never again see such a great fish.
That was 34 years ago. Today, the boy is a successful architect in New York City. His father’s cabin is still there on the island in the middle of the lake. He takes his own son and daughters fishing from the same dock.
And he was right. He has never again caught such a magnificent fish as the one he landed that night long ago. But he does see that same fish-again and again-every time he comes up against a question of ethics (道德规范).
小题1: Why did the father ask his son to put the perch back?| A．Because the father disliked the perch. | | B．Because the father was afraid of being fined | | C．Because the ethics must be obeyed. | | D．Because the son was more experienced in fishing than his father. |
小题2:When does the architect (the father’s son) think of that perch put back?| A．When he takes his own and son and daughters fishing from the same dock. | | B．When he builds many famous buildings. | | C．When he pays a visit to his old father. | | D．When he faces some problems about ethics. |
小题3:Which word can not be used to describe the boy’s father?| A．honest | B．noble-minded | C．caring | D．generous |

Many years ago, there was a story 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.
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 maths. Instead, she began to teach children.
Mrs. Thompson paid particular attention to Teddy. The boy’s mind seemed to come alive. The more she encouraged 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 letter 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 life. 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."

I’d just got in a taxi at the railway station when suddenly I found one of my suitcases missing. Just then, I saw a young fellow about 30 walking away with it, opening it and drawing out the valuables. “Stop thief! Stop thief!” I shouted and threw open the car door and rushed out to him, followed by the driver and half a dozen passers-by. Very soon the thief was cornered at the turn of the road. My driver caught the thief by the neck and put his hand into his trouser pocket, drawing out money, credit card, telephone book and so on and put them back into my suitcase.
Half an hour later, the car was running at full speed on the express highway. I sat back and breathed a long sigh of relief (松口气). But as I pulled out those stolen things from the suitcase and started to check them, I became dumbfounded (惊呆了). Before my eyes were 200 yuan instead of 100. And a blood test report of a 58-year-old woman appeared. I suddenly realized that the taxi driver must have mistaken the thief’s belongs and put his into my suitcase. The pitiful and begging look of the poor young man flashed across my mind again. My heart began to sink.
Two years has passed since then. But this event keeps coming back to me. Was the young man a habitual robber or a dutiful son who had been driven to desperation (铤而走险) to find money to save his mother’s life? My heart aches for him. How I wish I had gone back that summer afternoon to return the 200 yuan and say sorry to him. For the first time in my life, I realized that hate and love are very close.
小题1:Why was the writer dumbfounded when he opened his suitcase?| A．Because he was now searching a different suitcase. | | B．His own blood test report has changed into an old woman’s. | | C．An old woman had put her savings into his suitcase. | | D．He was facing things that did not belong to himself. |
小题2:Who helped the writer catch the thief?| A．No one. He caught the thief all by himself. | | B．The driver with several other people. | | C．Some policemen. | | D．The thief came back and gave back the suitcase to him. |
小题3:What was one of the reasons for the young man to steal in the writer’s opinion?| A．The young man was a born thief. | | B．The young man couldn’t afford to pay for his old mother’s medical treatment. | | C．The young man’s mother asked him to do so. | | D．Young people are likely to steal when they are poor. |
小题4:The major purpose for the writer to write this passage is ______.| A．to describe what hate and love are like | | B．to entertain the readers with an interesting story | | C．to impress the readers with an interesting story | | D．to encourage the readers to help him find the thief |
