Having lived in the house for so long, we found our kitchen looked    21   . We decided it was time to   22  the kitchen, and my husband and I were discussing   23  colors. The children, sitting nearby, suddenly all spoke together：“Not the measuring stick. ”
“No,” I   24   them. “Not the measuring stick.”
The measuring stick isn’t a (an)   25    stick but the kitchen side of the door between our kitchen and dining room. Along the edge we’ve   26   each child’s growth by making a mark showing his or her   27   on every birthday. Over the years, so many colored pens, pencils and    28     have been used that now, this white door is somewhat like an abstract(抽象的) painting.
Names and dates show different    29   , and I can tell by the script(手跡) who measured whom. An eight-year-old   30  to measure her three-year old sister, a grandchild measured her grandmother and my husband did the same to me. At our family    31   , when this door swung back and forth frequently, friends used to stop to    32    the names and dates. When they were asked if they would like to be always remembered, they    33    smiled shyly and went back right up into place,     34  to be measured.
Many of those   35    on the door are still   36   . Some have stopped. Some remain with us only in   37   . When my mother came to see my eldest daughter graduate from university, we measured her, too. It was her last visit to our home.
We haven’ t   38   the new kitchen color plan yet, but one thing is certain: whatever color we choose, the   39   of the kitchen door will still remain    40  , with lots of names and dates in various colors.

Worse than simply being denied admission(拒絕接收)，the school didn’t reply to her at all.It wasn’t a matter of her school records，but of her skin color：Wallsis African American，and in those days，that fact alone closed a lot of doors. “I was sad and I was hurt,”Walls told ABC News.“I did not expect the skin color would affect my application.I thought I could go to university like other students.”
Four years later，the government declared that all schools should not discriminate against(歧視)African Americans— but it was too late for Walls.She’d moved on with her life, becoming a wife and a mother，and working as an elevator operator.She retired last year，at the age of 77.
She stayed quiet about the unfairness she’d faced in Missouri State.Her son，Terry，went through school records and found that she’d been the first black student to ever apply to the college.Today,four percent of the Southwest Missouri State College body is African American—including Terry.
Although it’s too late for Missouri State to change the past，the school is awarding Walls with an honorary degree(榮譽(yù)學(xué)位)from the school.While she knows it’s too late for herto change the course of her own life with the degree，it’s a chance for her to show her family that Missouri State has changed in the last 60 years，and there’s not a single door closed to them anymore.

I had a friend who visited me from out of town and I wanted to show him the CN Tower. It was one of the tallest structures on the earth. So I thought it would offer a(n)   36  sight.
We were standing in line for 45minutes to enjoy the    37   up to the watch point. When we got there, we went around the   38     of the tower and saw the hard wire fence  39     to the structure serving as a barrier. We went back inside to look for the glass floor that provided a direct view   40     . As soon as both of us  41     , we stopped before walking onto it. We found that our legs began to   42  . I stopped for a minute considering the step, taking several seconds to   43     the edge before moving.
And then I had a thought in my mind：“It is far   44     compared to any other floor in this building. There is no real danger to me — it’s    45   an illusion.

I walked on the    48   and looked around and thought about how  49   the experience was. I even found myself jumping up and down. There was no  50   , and it was certainly an illusion.
I considered how many things in our lives we  51    and exactly how many of them are actually illusions.

Success is often measured by the ability to overcome adversity（逆境）. But it is often the belief of others that gives us the courage（勇氣）to try.
J. K. Rowling, author of the Harry Potter book series, began writing at age 6. Her good friend-Sean became the first person to encourage her and help her build the confidence that one day she would be a very good writer.
“He was the first person with whom I really discussed my serious ambition（志向） to be a writer. He was also the only person who thought I was bound to（注定）be a success at it, which meant much more to me than I ever told him at the time.”
Though there were many difficulties, Rowling continued her writing, particularly fantasy stories. But it wasn't until l990 that she first came up with the idea about Harry Potter. As she recalls（回憶）, it was on a long train journey from London to Manchester that “the idea of Harry Potter simply fell into my head. To my great disappointment, I didn't have a pen with me, and I was too shy to ask anybody if I could borrow one. I think, now, that this was probably a good thing, because I simply sat and thought, for four (delayed train) hours, and all the details came up in my brain, and this thin, black-haired, bespectacled（戴眼鏡的）boy who didn't know he was a wizard became more and more real to me.”
That same year, her mother died after a ten-year fight with serious diseases, which deeply affected her writing. She went on to marry and had a daughter, but separated from her husband shortly afterwards.
During this time, Rowling was diagnosed with depression（診斷患有抑郁癥）. Unemployed, she finished her first novel in area cafes, where she could get her daughter to fall asleep. After being refused by l2 publishing houses, the first Harry Potter novel was sold to a small British publishing house.
Now with seven books that have sold nearly 400 million copies in 64 languages, J. K. Rowling is the highest earning novelist in history. And it all began with her friend’s encouragement as well as her ambition to write.
小題1: Who believed J. K. Rowling was to be a good writer?
A．Her friend Sean.B．Her mother.
C．Her daughter.D．Her husband.
小題2:Rowling first came up with the idea about Harry Potter________.
A．a(chǎn)t the age of 6
B．on a train journey
C．a(chǎn)fter her mother's death
D．in her secondary school
小題3: She felt disappointed on the train because_________.
A．her train was delayed for four hours
B．she didn't have a pen with her
C．her mind suddenly went blank
D．no one would offer her help
小題4: It can be concluded from Paragraph 5 and 6 that Rowling is_________.
A．open-minded B．warm-hearted
C．good-natured D．strong-willed
小題5: The text mainly tells us_________.
A．a(chǎn)dversity makes a good novelist
B．the courage to try is a special ability
C．you can have a wonderful idea everywhere
D．encouragement helps one succeed

Last year, two days after Christmas, we kicked China out of the house. Not the country obviously, but bits of plastic, metal, and wood with the words “Made in China”. We kept what we already had, but stopped bringing any more in. because it had coated our lives with toys, and useless stuff. Sometimes I worried about jobs sent overseas, but price triumphed over virtue at our house. We couldn’t resist what China was selling.
But on that dark Monday last year, an unease feeling washed over me as I sat on the sofa. It wasn’t until then that I noticed a fact: China was taking over the place.
It stared back at me from the empty screen of the television. I spied it in the pile of tennis shoes by the door. It glowed in the lights on the Christmas tree and watched me in the eyes of a doll lying on the floor, I slipped off the couch and sorted gifts into two piles: China and non-China. The count came to China, 25, the world, 14. Christmas, I realized, had become a holiday made by the Chinese. Suddenly I wanted China out.
I persuaded my husband, and on Jan. 1 st, we started a-year-long household embargo on Chinese imports. The idea wasn’t to punish China. And we didn’t fool ourselves into thinking because we wanted to measure how far it had pushed in. We wanted to know what it would take in time, money, and worry to kick our China habit!
In the spring, our 4-year-old son started a campaign to support “China things”. “It’s too long without China,” he cried. He kept at me all day. I have discovered for myself that China doesn’t control every aspect of our daily lives, but if you take a close look at the underside of boxes in the toy department, I promise it will give you pause. “When we can buy China things again? Let’s never stop.” My son said.
After a year without China I can tell you this: You can still live without it, but it’s getting costlier by the day. And a decade from now I may not be brave enough to try it again.
