People use their mouths for many things. They eat, talk, shout,         and smile. So there are many expressions about mouth. For example, if you say        things about a person, the person will be unhappy and say “Do not bad mouth me.”
Sometimes, people say something to a friend or family member that later they regret       they hurt that person’s feelings. The speaker might say: “ I really put my foot in my mouth this time.” If this happens, the speaker might feel down in the mouth.
Information is        spread through the mouth. This is general communication        people, like friends talking to each other. “How did you hear about that movie?” Someone might ask. The         may be : “Oh, by word of mouth.” A more official way of getting information is through a company or government mouthpiece.
Sometimes, a person has a bad or unpleasant     with another person. He might say: “It left a bad taste in my mouth.” Or a person might have a very          experience, like being chased by an angry dog. He might say: “I had my         in my mouth.”
Some people have lots of money because they were         into a very rich family. You might say such a person “was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. ” And this rich person is the opposite of a person who lives from hand to mouth.

The first time I saw Jim Wooten I really understood him. He was a great TV news reporter. When he was reporting in Rwanda, one heartbreaking moment made a deep impression on me. When the camera showed all of the children who were dying, suffered from terrible diseases, Jim ended his piece by saying that when he got home, the first thing he was going to do was to put his arms around his own children. Then I realized that he was different, that he didn’t fall into any of the modern television-news tricks, that he was not giving us any awful, artificial(假的) television-journalist reports out of（出于) pity. Instead, I was watching a real reporter with a gift(天賦) for both words and slight differences.

Then I read his book, We Are All the Same, about his friendship with Xolani Nkosi, a South African boy who became the international spokesman for AIDS(艾滋病). It is about the friendship between Wooten and a black child who was ten years old and already dying of AIDS. It is also a book about a great teacher and his student. But the teacher－the one with real wisdom and understanding about life－is the little boy, not the journalist. And, finally, it’s about a love story of Gail Johnson, Nkosi’s white mother who does her best to save the boy, and their love for each other. When reading the book, I felt touched from time to time.
小題1:How did Jim Wooten feel when he saw the dying children in Rwanda?
__________________________________________________________________.
小題2:What would an ordinary journalist do on TV when he saw these dying children?
_________________________________________________________________.
小題3:How did Jim end his piece when he saw the dying children in Rwanda?
_________________________________________________________________.
小題4:Who is the teacher in the book, the little boy or the journalist?
_________________________________________________________________.
小題5:Why did Nkosi’s mother do everything possible to save the boy?
_________________________________________________________________.
小題6:What’s the writer’s attitude to Jim Wooten? How do you know that?

閱讀短文，按要求完成短文后的各項(xiàng)任務(wù)。
Because earthquakes happen without warning, it’s important to take steps now to prepare. Because you don’t know where you will be when an earthquake happens, prepare some supplies for your home, workplace and car.
1. Water
A person needs 1or 2 gallons of water daily just for drinking. (1)So store        
       1 gallon of water per person every day and be prepared for a 72-hour period. It is suggested that you buy bottled water. Keep bottled water in its original container and (2) do not open it until you need to use it. Also, do check the “use by” date.
2. Food
It’s always a practical idea to keep a supply of non-perishable (不易腐爛的) food on hand. Have an enough supply of canned food, powered milk, dried fruits, non-salted nuts and canned juices for at least 72 hours.
3. Flash light (手電筒) and spare batteries
Keep a flashlight beside your bed, at your place of work, and in your car. Do not use matches or candles after an earthquake until you are sure there are no gas leaks. Prepare a battery-powered radio and spare batteries. Most telephones will be out of order, so radios will be your best source of information.
4. Clothes
If you live in a cold place, you must think about warmth. You might not have heat after an earthquake. Think about your clothing and bedding supplies.
