In my profession as an educator and health care provider, I have worked with numerous children infected with the virus that    1   AIDS. The relationships that I have had with these special kids have been       in my life. They have taught me so many things, but I have        learned that great courage can be found in the smallest of packages. Let me tell you about Tyler.
Tyler was born      with HIV. From the        beginning of his life, he was       on medications to enable him to survive. When he was five, he had a     surgically inserted in a vein in his chest. This tube was connected to a pump, which he        in a small backpack on his back. Medications were hooked up to this pump and were        supplied through this tube to his bloodstream. At times, he also needed supplemented oxygen to support his      .
Tyler wasn't willing to give up one single moment of his childhood to this        disease. It was not       to find him playing and racing around his backyard. Tyler's mom often teased him by telling him that he moved so fast she needed to dress him in       . That way, when she looked out of the window to check on him playing in the yard, she could quickly        him.
This dreaded disease        wore down Tyler. He grew quite ill and, unfortunately,      did his HIV-infected mother. When it became apparent that he wasn't going to survive, Tyler's mom talked to him about death. She       him by telling Tyler that she was dying too, and that she would be with him soon     .
A few days before his death, Tyler asked me to his hospital bed and      , "I might die soon. I'm not scared. When I die, please       me in red. Mom promised she's coming to heaven, too. I'll be playing when she gets there, and I want to make sure she can find me."

小題1:A動詞辨析。 A. causes導(dǎo)致；B. causing導(dǎo)致；C. leads 領(lǐng)導(dǎo)；D. leading領(lǐng)導(dǎo)。此處是定語從句，從句缺少謂語動詞，排除BD選項(xiàng)；lead“帶領(lǐng)”，cause“造成”，根據(jù)常識可知病毒會導(dǎo)致艾滋病，由詞意判斷選A。

Do you want to work with people or animals or machines or tools? Do you want to work indoors or outdoors, directly serve people in need or serve people behind the scenes? These are the typical questions that a volunteer service agency would ask.
Every year, thousands and thousands of people in the west offer volunteer services. Volunteering greatly strengthens the community partly because it helps the old, the young, the weak, the sick, the disabled and the injured to overcome difficulties.
Volunteers usually help in many different ways. They may give people advice, offer friendship to the young, drive the elderly to church, counsel kids against drugs. Work as an assistant in a school or nursing home, raise funds, plant trees, help out in local libraries and do many other things.
Volunteering can be a few hours a week or a few hours a month, time during the day, evenings or weekends, either part time or full time. Anybody __________ can become a volunteer.
The art of volunteering is a process of both giving and receiving. Volunteering allows volunteers to meet new people and make new friends and mix with people from all walks of life. Volunteering is an excellent way to experiment, practice and try out new techniques and skills. It is much more effective to practice a skill than to read about it or study it in a classroom. Volunteering is a great way to develop good teamwork skills, discover your individual talents and explore career choices. Being a volunteer takes individuals on a wonderful journey and helps them learn many important things beyond their school.

I stared at him. He really      it. He calmly picked up his tools and fixed my aching teeth. From that day on, I saw him every week until I had good teeth again. After graduation, I got a job and      his bill in a few months.

I was never very neat, while my roommate Kate was extremely organized. Each of her objects had its place, but mine always hid somewhere. She even labeled（貼標(biāo)簽）everything. I always looked for everything. Over time, Kate got neater and I got messier. She would push my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk. We both got tired of each other.
War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming. “Take your shoes away! Why under my bed!” Deafened, I saw my shoes flying at me. I jumped to my feet and started yelling. She yelled back louder.
The room was filled with anger. We could not have stayed together for a single minute but for a phone call. Kate answered it. From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill. When she hung up, she quickly crawled（爬）under her covers, sobbing.
Obviously, that was not something she should not go through alone. All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart.
Slowly, I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and swept the floor, even on her side. I got so into my work that I even didn’t notice Kate had sat up. She was watching, her tears dried and her expression one of disbelief. Then, she reached out her hands to grasp mine. I looked up into her eyes. She smiled at me, “Thanks.”
Kate and I stayed roommates for the rest of the year. We didn’t always agree, but we learned the key to living together: giving in, cleaning up and holding on.
小題1:What made Kate so angry one evening?
A．She couldn’t find her books.
B．She heard the author shouting loud.

Which boy hasn’t dreamed of being a cool secret agent (特工)? The wonderful fighting abilities and the world-saving adventures are much more colourful than most people’s everyday lives. Well, Cody Banks is just like any other boy，except that he is not just dreaming. He has a big secret his friends never know about. He was trained to be a spy (間諜）by a special CIA programme，which was made to look like a summer camp. He learned high-speed driving，hand-to-hand fighting and the use of high-tech tools.
After proving he could become a young hero by saving a baby from a runaway car，Banks gets his first real task. He must make friends with a popular girl at school，Natalie Connors. Then，he must spy on her father，a scientist who has developed a dangerous technology (技術(shù)).Banks must stop a group of bad people from forcing Natalie’s father into using the technology to endanger the world.

How can he get around his problem and get an invitation to the girl’s upcoming birthday party? Will he finally become Natalie’s boyfriend and find out whatever he can about her father’s work?

Tim Richter and his wife, Linda, had taught for over 30 years near Buffalo, New York—he in computers, she in special education.“Teaching means everything to us，” Tim would say. In April 1998, he learned he would need a heart operation. It was the kind of news that leads to some serious thinking about life's purpose.
Not long after the surgery, Tim saw a brochure describing Imagination Library, a program started by Dolly Parton's foundation (基金會) that mailed a book every month to children from birth to age five in the singer's home town of Sevier, Tennessee. “I thought, maybe Linda and I could do something like this when we retire，”Tim recalls.  He placed the brochure on his desk，“as a reminder.”
Five years later, now retired and with that brochure still on the desk, Tim clicked on imagination library .com. The program had been opened up to partners who could take advantage of book and postage discounts.
The quality of the books was of great concern to the Richters. Rather than sign up online, they went to Dollywood for a look­see. “We didn't want to give the children rubbish，” says Linda. The books reviewed each year by teachers, literacy specialists and Dollywood board members included classics such as Ezra Jack Keats's The Snowy Day and newer books like Anna Dewdney's Llama Llama series.
Satisfied, the couple set up the Richter Family Foundation and got to work. Since 2004, they have shipped more than 12,200 books to preschoolers in their area. Megan Williams, a mother of four, is more than appreciative: “This program introduces us to books I've never heard of .”
The Richters spend about $400 a month sending books to 200 children. “Some people sit there and wait to die，” says Tim. “Others get as busy as they can in the time they have left.”
