I will never forget the two impressive things that happened last winter. One of my classmates and I were   36  our project work late at night on my university"s campus far from home.  Since there was   37  in the forecast, I had worn a winter   38  to school that day with a raincoat in my bag.
Throughout our work on the project, I could   39  that my friend was tired from a very long day working.  As we stepped outside to begin the   40  walk home, I   41  she was shivering(颤抖).  The temperature had dropped to the low thirties (Fahrenheit) and she   42  had a sweater on. I   43  offered her my warm jacket. She accepted it and asked me what I   44  wear then.  I told her I had another one and pretended that my   45  was a jacket.  She said later that she   46  the next morning and the first thing on her mind was feeling moved about my   47  of the jacket.
Coincidentally(碰巧), the next day I went to an open-air play and I was freezing   48  I didn’t expect it to be so   49 .  A person who I hardly   50  insisted that I wear his jacket.  I was   51  touched by this warm gesture.  He was so matter-of-fact(讲究实际的) about me   52  his coat, too:  he simply took it off and handed it to me telling me that I should   53  it. I used to think that this vast universe was a cold   54 .  It turns out that even when the temperature drops low, the people never   55  to warm each other"s hearts.

Bears and humans often meet in National Parks. Although campers and hikers are warned not to feed the bears, many people ignore these warnings and feed the beasts anyway. When bears are used to people’s food, problems soon arise.
Bears like to eat a large variety of things, both meat and vegetable. Without human assistance, bears live nicely on roots, twigs, leaves of trees, insects and small animals. With people around, the bears’ tastes quickly expand to include sandwiches, hot dogs, hamburgers, and anything else they can temp humans into giving up.
Bears often develop clever strategies for getting people to let go their food supplies. More often than not, an unsuspecting hiker has taken off his or her pack for a rest only to have a bear charge out of the woods, grab the pack and quickly disappear into the underbrush with it. Hanging the pack on a tree branch won’t help. Bears have been known to climb up, jump off, and catch the pack on the way down. One mother bear stretched up with her baby on her shoulders to reach a pack stored on a pole. Many bears threaten people into giving up their supplies. Although a bear is unlikely to attack a person and would probably run away if screamed at, few people are willing to do so. Most people drop the pack and run the other way. This, of course, delights the bear. In some places, the Park Service installed some metal barrels with lids to help campers keep their supplies safe from bears. Although the bears were unable to open these containers, the effort was less than successful. Most campers, unable to tell the metal drums from rubbish cans, never used them for the intended purpose.
小题1:Feeding bears on people’s food         .
A.brings the people a lot of funB.can cause problems
C.often causes injuries and deathsD.helps bears survive
小题2:If people had never fed bears, the bears        .
A.might be satisfied with what they had originally
B.would have starved long before
C.wouldn’t have enough food supply
D.would have hunted for other kind of food
小题3:Which of the following is TRUE?
A.If fed on sandwiches and hot dogs, the bears would no longer eat roots, twigs and insects .
B.It’s likely that bears would hurt people if the people didn’t give up their food.
C.Most people would frighten away the bears that would temp their food.
D.Seeing a pack, the bear would quickly snatch it and run away with it.
小题4:Bear-proof containers didn’t work because         .
A.bears were clever enough to get the food in them
B.they were left open in the open air
C.people were not sure of their use
D.they were once used as rubbish cans

Can trees talk? Yes, but not in words. Scientists have reason to believe that trees do communicate (交际) with each other. Not long ago, researchers learned some surprising things. First a willow tree attacked in the woods by caterpillars (毛虫) changed the chemistry of its leaves and made them taste so terrible that they got tired of the leaves and stopped eating them. Then even more astonishing, the tree sent out a special smell---a signal (信号) causing its neighbors to change the chemistry of their own leaves and make them less tasty.
Communication, of course, doesn’t need to be in words. We can talk to each other by smiling, raising our shoulders and moving our hands. We know that birds and animals use a whole vocabulary of songs, sounds, and movements. Bees dance their signals, flying in certain patterns that tell other bees where to find nectar (花蜜) for honey. So why shouldn’t trees have ways of sending message?
小题1: It can be concluded from the passage that caterpillars do not feed on leaves that ______.
A.are lying on the groundB.have an unpleasant taste
C.bees don’t likeD.have an unfamiliar shape
小题2:According to the passage, the willow tree was able to communicate with other trees by ______.
     
A.waving its branchesB.giving off a special smell
C.dropping its leavesD.changing the colour of its trunk
小题3:According to this passage, bees communicate by ______.
A.making special movementB.touching one another
C.smelling one anotherD.making unusual sound

I went back to the nurses’ station and _48_ the homeless family. The nurses, _49_ about working on Christmas Day like me, turned to feel sorry for the family and decided to _50_.
We bought delicious food in the hospital restaurant and _51_ a big dinner for our guests. We needed _52_. So we put apples in a basket and collected candies and clothes. Just as we were seriously prepared to meet the physical needs of the _53_, our team worked to meet the needs of a family who just wanted to be _54_ on Christmas Day.
Later, as the family was to _55 _ , the youngest child ran to me and said,“Thank you very much. Good bye.’

My mother used to ask me what was the most important part of the body. Through the years I would   21  what I thought was the correct answer. When I was younger, I thought   22  was very important to us as humans, so I said, “My ears, Mommy”. She said, “No. Many people are   23 . But you keep thinking about it and I will ask you again soon.”
Several years passed   24  she asked me again. Since making my first   25 , I had often thought of the correct answer. So this time I told her, “Mommy, sight is very important to everybody, so it must be our eyes.” She looked at me and told me, “You are   26  fast, but the answer is not correct because there are many people who are blind.”
  27  the years, Mother asked me a couple more   28  and always her answer was, “No, but you are getting   29  every year, my child.” Then last year, my Grandpa died. Everybody was crying when it was our   30  to say our final good-bye to Grandpa. Mom asked me, “Do you know the most important body part yet, my dear?”
I was   31  when she asked me this now. I always thought this was a   32  between her and me. She saw the   33  on my face and told me, “This question is very important. It shows that you have really   34  your life.” I saw her eyes well up with tears. She said, “My dear, the most important body part is your   35 .” I asked, “Is it because it holds up your head?” She replied, “No, it is   36  on them a crying friend or loved one can rest their head. I only hope that you have enough   37  and friends that you will have a shoulder to cry   38  when you need it.” Then and there I knew the most important body part is not a   39  one. It is sympathetic to the pain of   40 .
