Many older brothers and sisters have an irritating (恼人的) tendency to take charge, a habit   21   while growing up. We can easily see this pattern in Martha, the older sister of Mary and Lazarus. She had a strong   22   to do everything exactly right and was   23  to being in control.
The fact that Martha, Mary, and Lazarus are remembered for their hospitality takes on added significance when we note that hospitality was a social requirement in their culture. It was considered   24   to turn anyone away from your door.   25  Martha’s family met this requirement very well.
Martha worried about details. She wished to   26  , to serve, to do the right thing, but she often succeeded in making everyone around her uncomfortable. Perhaps as the oldest she feared shame if her home didn’t measure up to   27 . She tried to do everything she could to make sure that wouldn’t happen. As a result, she found it hard to relax and enjoy her guests and even   28   to accept Mary’s lack of cooperation in all the preparations. Martha’s frustration (挫折感) was so intense that she finally asked Jesus to settle the matter. He gently corrected her attitude and told her that getting caught up in   29   can make us forget the main reasons for our actions. In fact, the personal attention she gave her guests should be more important than the   30  she tried to provide for them.

A few months ago, I had the responsibility of delivering some donations (捐赠物) to the local City Mission, a place where the homeless, and often the injured can find shelter from a life that has been turned upside down for them.
It was late autumn, and already the promise of winter was whispering through the open windows of the Mission"s storage area.
After setting the donations near the sorting table, I said goodbye to the worker, and headed back through the dining area towards the door.
I was careful not to notice the people sitting at the tables, choosing to leave before feeling the guilt (罪过) of my " having", in the midst of so many who have nothing.
But it was not to be.
"Not yet," I heard a woman"s voice say. "Not till we pray (祈祷)."
I was behind them when the mother bowed her head and began one of the most heartfelt prayers I have ever heard, and I stopped where I was to look over at the table.  A young mother was there with her two young boys, one about three years old on her left, the other, about five, on her right. Both were waiting, heads bowed, eyes closed.
My heart broke as I watched and listened. She was in a leg cast (腿上打着石膏), and scars (伤疤) covered her arms, her face and head.
One of the younger ladies working at the Mission had come to stand beside me, and she whispered, "She"s a single mom; her husband just took off one day and didn"t come back. She came here when their apartment caught fire. She was burned getting her kids out."
She started to say something else but stopped.
We were silent ... and the words this young mother said in our silence will always follow me, "... and thanks for the fruit on the ground, when I just can"t reach the tree."
54. By saying "Not yet", the woman probably wanted to______.
A. thank the author for sending the food   B. ask her children to pray before eating
C. blame those who have too much       D. pray for the happiness of her children
55. Why did the woman come to the City Mission?
A. Because her husband left her and her children.
B. Because she suffered from a serious disease.
C. Because her house caught fire suddenly.
D. Because she was out of work.
56. From the last paragraph, we can infer that the woman was ______.
A. happy to find the fallen fruit on the ground
B. regretful for not climbing the tree for the fruit
C. satisfied to pick up the fruit for her children
D. grateful very much for the help she received

If you think you are sick, you are sick no matter what   41 says.   42 , if you believe in your doctor, and if he tells that you are going to feel better, you probably will. The  43  of the mind on the body does exist and sometimes can be powerful. It exists whether one is 44 of it or not.

Almost every day we come across situations in which we have to make decisions one way or another. Choice, we are given to believe, is a right. But for a good many people in the world in rich and poor countries, choice is a luxury, something wonderful but hard to get, not a right. And for those who think they are exercising their right to make choices, the whole system is merely an illusion, a false idea created by companies and advertiser, hoping to sell their products.
The endless choice gives birth to anxiety in people’s lives. Buying something as basic as a coffee pot is not exactly simple. Easy access to a wide range of everyday goods leads to a sense of powerlessness in many people, ending in the shopper giving up and walking away, or just buying an unsuitable item(商品) that is not really wanted. Recent studies in England have shown that many electrical goods bought in almost every family are not really needed. More difficult decision-making is then either avoided or trusted into the hands of the professionals, lifestyle instructors, or advisors.
It is not just the availability of the goods that is the problem, but the speed with which new types of products come on the market. Advances in design and production help quicken the process. Products also need to have a short lifespan so that the public can be persuaded to replace them within a short time. The typical example is computers, which are almost out-of-date once they are bought. This indeed makes selection a problem. Gone are the days when one could just walk with ease into a shop and buy one thing; no choice, no anxiety.
小题1:What does the author try to argue in Paragraph 1?
A.The exercise of rights is a luxury.
B.The practice of choice is difficult.
C.The right of choice is given but at a price.
D.Choice and right exist at the same time.
小题2:Why do more choices of goods give rise to anxiety?
A.Professionals find it hard to decide on a suitable product.
B.People are likely to find themselves overcome by business persuasion.
C.Shoppers may find themselves lost in the broad range of items.
D.Companies and advertisers are often misleading about the rage of choice.
小题3:By using computers as an example, the author wants to prove that _______.
A.advanced products meet the needs of people
B.products of the latest design flood the market
C.competitions are fierce in high-tech industry
D.everyday goods need to be replaced often
小题4:What is this passage mainly about?
A.The variety of choices in modern society.
B.The opinions on people’s right in different countries
C.The Problems about the availability of everyday goods.
D.The helplessness in purchasing decisions
