For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.
Blessed indeed is the man who hears many gentle voices call him father!
Lydia M. Child
When I was a little girl, my father had a time-honored tradition. Following my bedtime story, he would give me a nose  36  , and whisper the most wonderful words into my ear. “Michelle, of all the little girls in the whole wide world . . .” he would pause.
“ Yes, Daddy?”
“ How did your mommy and I get so  37  to get the best one?”
 38  he had time to finish, I would say, “You got me!” And then he would continue , “The best little girl in the whole wide world, and we got you.” He would end with a bear hug and  39  kiss to my forehead.
Years passed and my father never missed a night, even when I thought he should have. After my basketball team was  40  , he came into my room.
“ Michelle, of all the basketball players in the whole wide world,” he paused.
“ Yes, Daddy?” I stared at the floor.
“ How did your mom and I get so lucky to get the best one?”
“ You didn’t.”
“ Of course we did, Michelle. We have you.”
After I  41  from college, I became engaged. My father never missed a night to call or leave a message  42  me how special I was to him. I even wondered if he would continue calling after I got  43  , but he didn’t. The daily calls I had taken for granted all my life ended the day he died from cancer, only weeks before my wedding. I deeply missed  44  the days with my father.
Standing behind the white church doors, I waited for the wedding march to begin. Before we walking down the aisle, my brother  45  inside his pocket and handed me an ivory napkin. Inscribed (題寫) were the words:
Of all the precious  46  in the whole wide world, how did Mark get so lucky to marry the best one? He married you, Michelle, and he is so lucky! I am so proud of you, my little girl.
Love,
Dad
Without doubt , it was the best wedding gift I  47 , One I would never forget. My father showered me with his gifts every day of his life. How did I get so lucky?

Every spring scores of people flock to the Buzzard Festival at Hinckley, Ohio. They come to watch for buzzards. Most would be glad just to take a look at a buzzard. If they do see one of these" flying garbage cans", it will probably be circling high in the sky. From there it can watch the ground for signs of the waste and the dead animals on which it feeds.
The buzzard is the ugliest bird in the United States. In fact, it may well be the ugliest bird in the world. It has a small, bare, pink head. Its thick body is covered with dark, rough feathers.
In spite of its looks, the buzzard is important to the people of Hinckley. It is their first sign of spring. After a winter in the south, buzzards return to their homes in the north. In the Hinckley area, they always return on March 15. No one knows why. But they have come back to Hinckley Ridge on that day, sure as clocks work, for at least forty years.
The excitement starts in February. By the middle of March it has reached a high peak. Bets are placed. Prizes go to the person who sees the first buzzard. Radio stations and newspapers tell of the coming festival. And on the weekend after March 15 the people of Hinckley hold their Buzzard Festival.
The people come and look around. They chat. They eat their fill of pancakes and sausages. Then they drive past Buzzard's Roost on Hinckley Ridge.
A lot of them stop near the road at the stand set up to give information to visitors. There they can hear, from a recording, the main facts about the buzzard. They can see a stuffed buzzard. They can look at some pictures taken of buzzards in other years. With good luck and a strong pair of field glasses, they may sight one or two live buzzards high in the sky.
Buzzards may be ugly. They may be "flying garbage cans". But in Hinckley they are just as welcome as the swallows in Capistrano, California. It would be a sad spring indeed if the buzzards ever failed to come back to Hinckley Ridge.
小題1:A good title for this story would be __________.
A.The Hinckley Buzzard Festival
B.Buzzard, the Ugliest Bird
C.Why the Buzzard Has a Pink Head
D.The Return of“The Garbage Can"
小題2:The buzzard is called the "flying garbage can" because it __________.
A.is uglyB.eats waste and dead animals
C.looks like a garbage canD.collect rubbish on the ground
小題3:The surprising thing about Hinckley's buzzards is that_.
A.they spend the winter in the south
B.they come very close to the town
C.they return on the same day each year
D.both buzzards and swallows return to Capistrano on March 15
小題4:At the information stand, visitors to Hinckley's Buzzard Festival can _________.
A.learn some facts about the buzzard
B.easily see a live buzzard
C.take some pictures with the background of live buzzards
D.feed their fill of pancakes and sausages to buzzards

The man turned toward me, tears in his eyes, and said, “Sir, I have a better   50  . You give that $20 to a   51  person around here and I’ll treat the next passenger with a   52  ride myself.
Wow. This man was   53  10 minutes ago. I got out and walked around trying to   54 someone who needed help before heading to my destination.
It was an honor meeting that driver and    55   the lesson of how everyone is capable of giving.

"Hey, Dad," one of my kids asked the other day, "what was your favourite fast food when you were growing up?"
"We didn't have fast food when I was growing up," I informed him."All the food was slow." "Where did you eat?" "It was a place called 'at home'." I explained."Grandma cooked every day and when Grandpa got home from work, we sat down together at the dining table, and if I didn't like what she put on my plate I was allowed to sit there until I liked it."
Some parents never owned their own houses, set foot on a golf course, travelled out of the country or had a credit card.
My parents have never driven me to soccer practice.This was mostly because we never had heard of soccer.I had a bicycle that weighed probably 50 pounds, and only had one speed.We didn't have a television in our house until I was 11.I was 13 when I tasted my first pizza; it was called "pizza pie".When I bit into it, I burned the roof of my mouth and the cheese slid off, swung down, plastered(粘貼)itself against my chin and burned that, too.It's still the best pizza I ever had.
I delivered newspapers, six days a week .The paper cost 7 cents, of which I got to keep 2 cents.I had to get up at 4:00 a.m.every morning.On Saturday, I had to collect the 42 cents from my customers.My favourite customers were the ones who gave me 50 cents and told me to keep the change.
If you grew up in a generation before there was fast food, you may want to share some of these memories with your children or grandchildren.
Growing up isn't what it used to be, is it?
小題1:By saying "All the food was slow", the writer implies that ____.
A.when he was growing up, he never ate fast food

D.he had to wait for a long time for the fast food
小題2:When the writer didn't like the food his grandma cooked when he was growing up, _______.
A.his grandma would make something he liked
B.his grandma would buy him fast food
C.he would sit there waiting for his favourite pizza pie
D.he had to eat it or go without

A major new development in system of work in Britain is taking place. Flexible working hours, or “Flextime”, are catching on fast, and trend is continuing. In 1973, over 500 organizations had adopted the idea, and by 1974, this number had risen to over 200,000.
Flexible working hours were invented in Germany in the late 1960’s, but reached Britain only in 1972. The system allows workers to start and finish work whenever they want, with only two requirements. These are, firstly, that all workers must present for certain “key” times in the day, and secondly, that all workers must work an agreed total number of hours per week.
The system had proved a total success wherever it has been tried. A survey of 700 workers on flexible hours showed three main advantages: a better balance between working and private life, avoidance of the need to travel during rush hours and the ability to finish a certain task before leaving.
From the employer’s point of view, the system tends to increase productivity, reduce labour turnover and give workers a greater sense of duty. At first, “Flexible” was mainly confined to white-collar workers, but it is now being applied to manual workers too.
小題1:According to “Flextime” system, workers need not _________.
A.work at the same timeB.work all the weekdays
C.work hardD.a(chǎn)sk for leave when being absent
小題2:“Key” time is a period when _________.
A.visitors come to the plants
B.a(chǎn)ll workers must be at work
C.employers go round in the workshop
D.rush hours are over
小題3:No matter where it is used, this system has proved _________.
A.entirely effectiveB.totally correct
C.a(chǎn) complete failureD.quite difficult
小題4:One of the great advantages of “Flextime” for workers is that they _________.
A.have a great sense of dutyB.can avoid busy traffic
C.can get higher payD.can avoid working hard
