The small unframed painting called “Fisherman” was signed by a little-known Italian artist, Maveleone (1669-1740). When it was sold recently in New York for $ 27000, the seller, Mr. Oliver Pitt, was asked to explain how the picture had come into his possession.

Pitt said, “I didn’t know it was so valuable. I’m not an art expert. Photography is my hobby. I bought ‘Fisherman’ in Italy in 1970 for $140.the picture was dirty, and I couldn’t see the artist’s signature. But anyway it wasn’t the picture that I like. I bought it because of the frame.”

“It’s most unusual frame, made of tiny, silvery sea-shells. They are set in such a way that they reflect perfect light onto the surface of a picture. I now have a photograph of my wife in that frame, and I’ll never part with it.”

“When I returned to New York I showed the painting in its frame to a customs officer. I told him that I had paid $140 for it but admitted I didn’t know its actual worth. The customs man valued it at $ 140, and I was asked to pay duty on that value. I did so, there and then.”

“Later, I took off the frame, and that uncovered Maveleone’s signature. My wife suggested in fun that the painting might be a valuable one, so I cleaned it and put it up for sale.”

As a result of his explanation, Oliver Pitt had to appear in court. He was accused of (指控) knowingly making a false statement of the value of a picture so as to cheat the Customs Department.

Pitt was not happy. “I told the truth as I knew it then,” he said, “What else could I say?”

And then the judge agreed with him. “The Customs Department is to be responsible (blame),” he said, “for making a true valuation of goods bought into the country, so that the correct amount of duty may be charged. Mr Pitt did not cause or try to cause the mistake that was made. He paid the duty that was demanded. If now, the Customs Department finds that its valuation was not correct, it cannot be allowed to have another try. Pitt is not guilty.

Pitt met the customs officer __________, where the officer was employed to ________.

       A.a(chǎn)t the railway station or airport; examine people’s baggage

       B.a(chǎn)t the airport or port; examine people’s baggage

       C.a(chǎn)t the bus-stop; help people enter the USA

       D.a(chǎn)t the airport or port; help people enter the USA

From the passage we can infer that if Maveleone had been a well-know artist _________.

       A.the painting would have cost much more than $ 140

       B.he wouldn’t have sold his painting at such a low price

       C.the customs officer wouldn’t have valued the painting at $ 140

       D.Pitt wouldn’t have had the intention to buy any of his paintings

Pitt took off the frame in order to ____________.

       A.clean the painting to put it up for sale

       B.look for the artist’s signature

       C.use if for his wife’s photograph

       D.find the painting’s true value

Which is true according to the passage?

       A.Pitt knew the true value of the picture.

       B.Pitt’s wife knew the true value of the picture.

       C.When Pitt’s wife suggested keeping the picture, she was kind of joking.

       D.Pitt didn’t pay any duty at all.

Which of the following statements is true to the story? In the end __________.

       A.Pitt was asked to pay the correct amount of duty.

       B.Pitt sold the frame of the painting at an even higher price.

       C.The Customs Department had no right to revalue the painting.

To son, Cecil,

       Just a quick note before I start in earnest. When I wrote this, you were 8, still a little boy. In 2002, I was called to active duty in the Marine Corps in the war on Terrorism (恐怖主義). On the 11th of September 2001 when America was attacked, I knew that I would eventually have to go and I was filled with a deep sense of sadness. That night as you and Keiko were asleep, I looked at your little faces and couldn’t help but fight the tears. I knew it would be hard for you because I had a similar experience. When I was a little boy aged 6, my dad, your Grandpa Cawley, was sent to Vietnam during the war there. I remember how much I missed him, too. But now unfortunately I have come to realize just how rough it must have been for Grandpa to be away from his children for a year. Thinking about this, I wanted to put my thoughts and feelings down for you and your sister. I am so sorry that I had to leave for such a long time. There is no place I would rather be than with you and Keiko. You two are the lights of my life. I have known no greater joy than in the few years since you two were born. I hope to have many more years with you. If this doesn’t happen, then know that I love you more than words can express. If for some reason I don’t make it home, I will need you to take care of your little sister and your Mom. You will be the man of the Cawley family. Be good my son and God will watch over you as he has me. I will be waiting impatiently for the time when we can all be together again.

A. an American soldier in the battle field

A. they both experienced the Vietnam War 

B. their fathers had to leave them and fight abroad.

Years ago, I lived in a building in a large city. The building next door was only a few feet away from mine. There was a woman who lived there, whom I had never met, yet I could see her seated by her window each afternoon, sewing or reading.

After several months had gone by, I began to notice that her window was dirty. Everything was unclear through the dirty window. I would say to myself, “I wonder why that woman doesn't wash her window. It really looks terrible.”

One bright morning I decided to clean my flat, including washing the window on the inside. Late in the afternoon when I finished the cleaning, I sat down by the window with a cup of coffee for a rest. What a surprise! Across the way, the woman sitting by her window was clearly visible. Her window was clean!

Then it dawned on me. I had been criticizing her dirty window, but all the time I was watching hers through my own dirty window.

That was quite an important lesson for me. How often had I looked at and criticized others through the dirty window of my heart, through my own shortcomings?

Since then, whenever I wanted to judge someone, I asked myself first, “Am I looking at him through my own dirty window?”

Then I try to clean the window of my own world so that I may see the world about me more clearly.  

64.The writer couldn't see everything clearly through the window because _______ .

A.the woman's window was dirty    B.the writer's window was dirty

C.the woman lived nearby          D.the writer was near-sighted

65.Finishing the cleaning, the writer was surprised that _______.

A.the woman was sitting by her window

B.the woman's window was clean

C.the woman did cleaning in the afternoon

D.the woman's window was still terrible

66.“…it dawned on me” probably means “_______ ”.

A.I began to understand it       B.it cheered me up

C.I knew it grew light           D.it began to get dark

67.It’s clear that _______.
