I have been applying, interviewing, etc since July with no prospects(前景). I have been told mostly that I am overqualified, or they need fulltime etc. I had been getting pretty down and discouraged. I was actually asking myself why can’t someone be kind enough to take me on as an       .
This past Tuesday evening it was       outside and going to be 9 pm as I was waiting at a bus stop. Just as the bus      a young woman approached me. She had a T-shirt, Capri pants, and slippers on. She also was wearing several hospital bracelets.
I       my purse and took out $5.00 so she could get something to eat. I then took off my jacket and       and gave them to her. I said, “These are a little big but they should keep       warm.” She looked at me and said “Aren’t you going to be cold?” I told her my being cold for 15 minutes      I got to my place was worth it if I knew she would be a little warmer. She sobbed and thanked me with a hug. I just told her to       .
Then after I got on the bus that’s       the miracle of spreading       happened. I stepped up to pay the       and the bus driver said, “Mam, I saw what you just did and your fare is       me, even though technically we aren’t supposed to let you get on the bus without shoes.” he said with a wink.
A lady who was dressed in a very      business suit called me over to her seat. She said, “I want to know the        of the person who just did the most       thing I have ever seen.” I told her my name and she said , “What can I do for you to       what I just witnessed?” I       said a paying job would be nice.
The next day she called me and said that she had a       administrative assistant position       in her company and wanted me to meet with the manager. It        that the lady was the head Human Resources person.
I start Monday morning at 9am! Thank you all for inspiring me to keep passing the kindness on! I never expected to get so much back in return!

Father’s Garden
My father was always a good(酷愛(ài)的) gardener. One of my earliest memories is standing without shoes in the freshly tilled(翻耕的) soil, my hands blackened from digging in the ground.
As a child, I loved following Dad around in the garden. I remember Dad pushing the tiller(耕作機(jī)) ahead in perfectly straight lines. Dad loved growing all sorts of things: yellow and green onions, watermelons almost as big as me, rows of yellow corn, and our favorite--- red tomatoes.
As I grew into a teenager, I didn’t get so excited about gardening with Dad. Instead of magical land of possibility, it had turned into some kind of prison. As Dad grew older, his love for gardening never disappeared. After all the kids were grown and had started families of their own, Dad turned to gardening like never before. Even when he was diagnosed with cancer, he still took care of his garden.
But then, the cancer, bit by bit, invaded his body. I had to do the things he used to do. What really convinced me that Dad was dying was the state of his garden that year. The rows and rows of multicolored vegetables were gone. Too tired to weed them, he simply let them be. He only planted tomatoes.
For the first few years after he died, I couldn’t even bear to look at anyone’s garden without having strong memories pour over me like cold water from a bucket. Three years ago, I decided to plant my own garden and started out with just a few tomatoes. That morning, after breaking up a fair amount of soil, something caught the corner of my eye and I had to smile. It was my eight-year-old son Nathan, happily playing in the freshly tilled soil.
小題1:Why did the author like the garden when he was a child?
A．He wanted to be a garden-crazy like his father.
B．He loved being in the garden with his father.
C．The garden was full of his favorite food.
D．The garden was just freshly tilled.
小題2:When all the kids started their own families, the author’s father _____.
A．stopped his gardening.
B．turned to other hobbies.
C．devoted more to gardening.
D．focused on planting tomatoes.
小題3:What happened to the garden when the author’s father was seriously ill?
A．There was a great harvest.
B．The garden was almost deserted.
C．No plant grew in the garden at all.
D．The author’s son took charge of the garden.
小題4:Why did the author start his garden with tomatoes?
A．He wanted to honor his father.
B．His son liked the fields of tomatoes.
C．He only knew how to grow tomatoes.
D．He thought tomatoes were easy to manage.

I was very sympathetic with world leaders burdened with resolving conflicts between nations. When my three children were young, in most days it was hard to keep my house from becoming a war zone. It got worse as they grew older. Three years ago, Zack, then 16, couldn’t make it through a day without playing tricks on his sisters, Alex and Taryn, then 11 and 9.
My husband and I tried to understand his adolescent moodiness. We begged, reasoned, punished, and left heartfelt notes on his bed about how his behavior was hurting our family. His response was a shrug and “I say it because it’s true”.
I even tried telling the girls to fight back. But it was a bad idea. Now I had three kids at war. At wit’s end, I poured my heart out to my sister in an e-mail. She wrote back, “Don’t e-mail me. E-mail him.”
Our son was online every day, mailing and instantly messaging his friends. So what if I was within shouting distance? Maybe he would actually hear me this way. There’d be no yelling or door slamming（猛然關(guān)閉）. Zack wouldn’t feel under attack. And with a few simple keystrokes, he could respond. Or not. Zack didn’t reply for days. When he finally did, his entire message was four words. I expected the worst, but then smiled when I read them, ”You are right. I’m sorry.” The kids still fought, of course, but Zack scaled back the abuse (惡習(xí)). Best of all, I now have an effective way to communicate with not one but three easily annoyed teens. They don’t tune me out as much. They don’t like to listen to me nag (嘮叨) .Or as Alex says, “You’re so much nicer online.”
All I know is that the house is quiet, and we’re talking. In fact, Taryn just instantly messaged me from upstairs. It’s time to take her to softball practice.
小題1:The purpose of this passage is to tell us _________ .
A．how to solve family problems
B．how a mother shows her love to her children
C．how to treat kids in a more sensible way
D．the value of understanding between parents and children
小題2:By the first sentence of the passage, the author really means to be_______.
A．humourousB．sympatheticC．seriousD．inspiring
小題3:How did Zack react when the author first tried to stop his bad behavior？
A．He was annoyed and got worse.
B．He talked back to the author.
C．He felt sorry and changed.
D．He was persuaded and acted politely.
小題4:Zack stopped fighting with his sisters because _________ .
A．his mother learned how to mail him
B．his mother stopped yelling and nagging
C．his sisters learned to instantly message him
D．his mother had more friendly communications with him online

Some people will do just about anything to save money. And I am one of them. Take my family’s last vacation. It was my six-year-old son’s winter break from school, and we were heading home from Fort Lauderdale after a weeklong trip. The flight was overbooked, and Delta, the airline, offered us $400 per person in credits to give up our seats and leave the next day. I had meetings in New York，So I had to get back. But that didn't mean my husband and my son couldn't stay. I took my nine-month-old and took off for home.
The next day, my husband and son were offered more credits to take an even later flight. Yes, I encouraged—okay, ordered—them to wait it out at the airport, to "earn" more Delta Dollars. Our total take: $1,600. Not bad, huh?
Now some people may think I'm a bad mother and not such a great wife either. But as a big-time bargain hunter, I know the value of a dollar. And these days, a good deal is something few of us can afford to pass up.
I've made a living looking for the best deals and exposing （揭露） the worst tricks. I have been the consumer reporter of NBC's Today show for over a decade. I have written a couple of books including one titled Tricks of the Trade: A Consumer Survival Guide. And I really do what I believe in.
I tell you this because there is no shame in getting your money’s worth. I’m also tightfisted when it comes to shoes, clothes for my children, and expensive restaurants. But I wouldn't hesitate to spend on a good haircut. It keeps its shape longer, and it's the first thing people notice. And I will also spend on a classic piece of furniture. Quality lasts.
小題1:Why did Delta give the author's family credits?
A．They took a later flight.
B．They had early bookings.
C．Their flight had been delayed.
D．Their flight had been cancelled.
小題2:What can we learn about the author?
A．She rarely misses a good deal.
B．She seldom makes a compromise(妥協(xié)).
C．She is very strict with her children.
D．She is interested in cheap products.
小題3:What does the author do?
A．She's a teacher.B．She's a housewife.
C．She's a media person.D．She's a businesswoman.
小題4:What does the author want to tell us?
A．How to expose bad tricks.B．How to reserve airline seats.

Dear Dad,
Today I was at the shopping mall and I spent a lot of time reading the Father's Day cards. They all had a special message that in some way or another reflected how I feel about you. Yet as I selected and read, it occurred to me that not a single card said what I really want to say to you.
You'll soon be 84 years old, Dad, and you and I will have had 55 Father's Days together. I haven't always been with you on Father's Day but I've always been with you in my heart.
You know, Dad, there was a time when we were separated by the generation gap. You stood on one side of the Great Divide and I on the other.
The Father-Daughter Duel shifted into high gear ( 檔位) when you taught me to drive the old Dodge and I decided I would drive the '54 Chevy whether you liked it or not. The police officer who sent me home, after you reported the Chevy stolen, didn't have much tolerance for a stub­born 16 year old, while you were so tolerant about it, Dad, and I think that was probably what made it the worst night of my life.
Our relationship greatly improved when I married a man you liked, and things really turned around when we began making babies right and left. Somewhere along the line, the generation gap disappeared. I suppose I saw us and our relationship as aging together, rather like a fine wine.
But the strangest thing happened last week. I was at a stop sign and I watched as you turned the corner in your car. It didn't immediately occur to me that it was you because the man driving looked so elderly and fragile behind the wheel of that huge car. It was rather like a slap in the face delivered from out of nowhere. Perhaps I saw your age for the first time that day.
I guess what I'm trying to say, Dad, is what every son and daughter wants to say to their Dad today. Honoring a father on Father's Day is about respect and sharing and acceptance and tolerance and giving and taking. It's about loving someone more than words can say, and it's wishing that never had to end.
I love you, Dad.
Love,
Jenny
