I have always wanted to share this story because it is one of the things that I will remember for my whole life. And I’m sure the other person feels the same.
We had a new teacher in my middle school World History class. She was very nice and excited to see us. She told a story about her       fighting in a war and brought a picture of him. After about fifteen       of her talking, the class started talking softly to each other     they were getting bored. Looking     , she asked “So, you guys don’t really want to hear any more?” No one dared to say “no” to her loud     one kid. He said, “No, not really!”       a disrespectful(無禮的) way. Some kids were a little       and thought that it was rather rude. 
I felt really bad for this teacher. No one should be    in such a disrespectful manner. Therefore, near the end of the class I went up and said       to her for the guy’s rude behavior. I told her I had been listening, and even though I may not really like      , I was grateful to her for sharing her story. I asked her       about her father and asked to see the picture of him. We had a very nice, sincere conversation about her father.  
The teacher was touched. She thanked me for coming up and actually treating her with the respect(尊敬) that she deserved. I felt at full peace with       knowing that I did the right thing and I was super happy that I made her day. Even though I didn’t really care for history, I       listened, and I hope that others in different situations will do the same. Listening means a lot to the people sharing; it really      . If I had just left the class without saying a word, I would have felt very       and would have a constant reminder, probably to this day, that justice(公義) was not served and I had left a person in their time of need.

Legend has it that an apple which fell from its branches was the inspiration for Sir Isaac Newton’s discovery of gravity(引力). But now history’s famous fruit tree is paying the price of fame.                            
The thousands of visitors drawn to Sir Isaac’s childhood home each year could be damaging the tree. A willow barrier(圍欄)has been put around the tree. It means visitors to the 17th century Woolsthorpe Manor, near Grantham, Lincolnshire, will no longer be able to sit under its branches as Newton was said to have been doing in 1665 when “the notion of gravitation came to mind.”
The National Trust, which owns the small manor(莊園)where Newton was born in 1642, said the 2ft-high barrier was designed to preserve the tree. Official Ann Moynihan said there had been no damage so far but warned that there could soon be a problem.“Visitor numbers have gone up by around 50 percent, to 33,000 a year in three years. The more people who visit, the more the earth will become compacted(壓實) around the tree and over the roots. We just want to preserve the tree for another 400 years if we can.”She said visitors will still be able to take apples from the tree.
Visitor Chris Gwyther,37,said,“I suppose it is a pity that you can’t sit under the tree like Newton. But you can still see it and the tree is 400 years old, it needs saving for the future.”
Newton left no information saying he had been inspired by a falling apple. The story appeared in a book by French philosopher Voltaire published in 1727, the year Newton died at the age of 84.
小題1:Why do people go to Woolsthorpe Manor to see the apple tree?
A．Because of the story about the apple tree.
B．Because of the long history of the apple tree.
C．Because of the sweetness of the apple.
D．Because of the unusual flower of the apple tree.
小題2:What is the reason that people can’t sit under the tree like Newton?
A．The manor is too crowded to sit around.
B．Their heads will be hit by the apples.
C．A willow barrier has been put around the tree.
D．There is something wrong with the apple tree.
小題3:The underlined word preserve means “_____”.
A．keep something safeB．make something grow
C．leave something as it isD．let something be
小題4:When did Newton have the inspiration for the discovery of gravity?
A．In 1642. B．In 1665. C．In 1820.D．In 1727.
小題5:Which of the following sentences is true?
A．Newton himself wrote a letter about the story of the apple tree.
B．Newton’s family owes Woolsthorpe Manor and tells the story.
C．Visitor numbers have gone up to 32,000 every year.
D．A French philosopher wrote the apple tree story in a book.
