Mr. Glen is a millionaire. Five years ago, after returning from abroad to his motherland, he ___36___his small company. Speaking of success, Glen often tells us a story about his extra expensive “school” fee. He always ___37___his success to it.
At that time, Glen, who already got a Ph.D. degree, ___38___to return to the homeland, starting a company.

After returning to the homeland, he often told the story to his family, and his employees, too.

試題分析：文章講述百萬(wàn)富翁Mr. Glen親身經(jīng)歷的一件由于不誠(chéng)實(shí)而交了“昂貴學(xué)費(fèi)”的故事，并從中吸取了教訓(xùn)：誠(chéng)實(shí)正直是成功的秘訣。
小題1:set up建立;成立;take up拿起;開(kāi)始從事;go up上升;被興建;pick up恢復(fù)，拾起。由下文starting a company可知是Glen歸國(guó)成立了一家公司。
小題2:owe …to… 把……歸功于……。Glen 把自己的成功歸功于那次交了“昂貴學(xué)費(fèi)”的經(jīng)歷。
小題3:根據(jù)后面的before leaving可知是他決定回國(guó)。decide to do sth.決定做某事， refuse及object都是不回國(guó)。
小題4:買(mǎi)表要用錢(qián)，這里指放學(xué)后打工掙的積蓄和獎(jiǎng)學(xué)金得來(lái)的錢(qián)，不一定是英鎊(pound)。小題5:根據(jù)上文 Glen要回國(guó)，當(dāng)然要經(jīng)過(guò)機(jī)場(chǎng)例行的海關(guān)檢查。routine例行的;日常的，常規(guī)的。ordinary普通的;regular有規(guī)律的;common常見(jiàn)的。只有B符合。
小題6:根據(jù)上文的check可知是要把手表摘下來(lái)檢查的，因此用inspection。test表示試用;look看看;experiment實(shí)驗(yàn)。
小題7:it指代上句的the tax，而one泛指可數(shù)名詞單數(shù);them 及these都是復(fù)數(shù)形式。
小題8:選C。既然是假貨，應(yīng)該是不值錢(qián)的，故選C。而priceless表示無(wú)價(jià)的, 極貴重的;worthless表示不值錢(qián)的。
小題9:根據(jù)下文的his “smarts”可知Glen對(duì)自己的聰明感到自豪。
小題10:which引導(dǎo)非限制性定語(yǔ)從句，在這里指的是先行詞the watch。
小題11:。on hearing his words“一聽(tīng)到他的話”�！皁n + 名詞/動(dòng)名詞”表示“一……就”，是固定用法。at后只跟名詞。
小題12:根據(jù)“海關(guān)人員當(dāng)著他的面把勞力士表砸碎”以及后面“還沒(méi)明白怎么回事，就被帶到了一間辦公室”可知Glen很吃驚。
小題13:根據(jù)后文Glen因?yàn)檫@件事而上了黑名單可知，海關(guān)對(duì)他的檢查應(yīng)該是嚴(yán)格的
小題14:Glen在國(guó)外讀書(shū)并獲得學(xué)位可知他應(yīng)該有過(guò)很多次的出入境經(jīng)歷。
小題15:根據(jù)該官員仔細(xì)檢查及后面的according to law可知，該官員語(yǔ)氣應(yīng)該是嚴(yán)厲的，故warn最佳。
小題16:如果他再次被發(fā)現(xiàn)使用假冒偽劣商品，將根據(jù)法律受到起訴。find out符合warn和according to law的語(yǔ)境。
小題17:既然攜帶假冒偽劣商品是違法的事情，那么according to law(根據(jù)法律)，那一定是被起訴(charged)了。
小題18:make an impression on sb.給某人留下了印象，是一個(gè)固定短語(yǔ)。expression“表達(dá)，表示”。
小題19:額外的高額“學(xué)費(fèi)”使他意識(shí)到誠(chéng)實(shí)的價(jià)值。 honesty誠(chéng)實(shí),正直
小題20:跟首段呼應(yīng)，誠(chéng)實(shí)正直是他成功的秘訣。
點(diǎn)評(píng)：文章講述百萬(wàn)富翁Mr. Glen親身經(jīng)歷的一件由于不誠(chéng)實(shí)而交了“昂貴學(xué)費(fèi)”的故事，從而得出：誠(chéng)實(shí)正直是成功的秘訣。文章富有哲理。做完形填空題：1、通讀全文，掌握大意，判斷文章體裁，以便更好地把握文章結(jié)構(gòu)。2.瞻前顧后，逐句細(xì)讀(1)根據(jù)選項(xiàng)的不同詞義判斷答案(2)根據(jù)詞匯的固定用法判斷答案3) 根據(jù)社會(huì)及生活常識(shí)推斷答案(4) 根據(jù)上下文所提供的信息判斷答案(5)根據(jù)上下文的邏輯推理判斷答案3、認(rèn)真審讀，仔細(xì)驗(yàn)證

The most frightening words in the English language are “our computer is down.” You hear it more and more when you are on business. The other day I was at the airport waiting for a ticket to Washington and the girl in the ticket office said, “I’m sorry, I can’t sell you a ticket. Our computer is down.”
“If your computer is down, just write me out a ticket.”
“I can’t write you out a ticket. The computer is the only one allowed to do so.” I looked down at the counter and every passenger was just standing there drinking coffee and staring at the black screen. Then I asked her, “What do you do?”
“We give the computer the information about your trip, and then it tells us whether you can fly with us or not.”
“So when it goes down, you go down with it.”
“That’s right, sir.”
“How long will the computer be down?” I wanted to know.
“I have no idea. Sometimes it’s down for 10 minutes, sometimes for two hours. There is no way we can find out without asking the computer, and since it’s down, it won’t answer us.”
After the girl told me they had no backup computer, I said, “Let’s forget the computer. What about your planes? They are still flying, aren’t they?”
“I can’t tell without asking the computer.”
“Maybe I could just go to the gate and ask the pilot if he’s flying to Washington.” I suggested.
“I wouldn’t know what gate to send you to. Even if the pilot was going to Washington, he couldn’t take you if you didn’t have a ticket.”
“Is there any other airline flying to Washington within the next few hours?”
“I wouldn’t know,” she said, pointing at the desk screen. “Only IT knows. It can’t tell me.”
By this time there were quite a few people standing in line. The words soon spread to other travelers that the computer was down. Some people went, some people started to cry and still others kicked their luggage.
小題1:The word “down” in the sentence ‘Our computer is down.’ means _____________.
A．fallingB．downcastC．dropD．dead
小題2:The best title of the article is _________.
A．Asking the Computer
B．The Computer of the Airport
C．The Most Frightening Words
D．When the Computer Is Down
小題3:What could the girl in the ticket office do for the passengers without asking the computer?
A．She could answer the passengers’ questions
B．She could do nothing.
C．She could sell a ticket.

Every October, Robertson takes a new group of children to ride on the train —but now, he has a problem. Several disabled children were refused because the train was not accessible (可用的) to disabled people. "He was angry to think that children of his own age couldn’t ride a train," his mother said.

When I was young, my father used to grow carnations — a kind of flower that was red, pink or white. He took care of them with much love and devotion. Every day he came home from work, he would enjoy watching them. And he used to tell us, “No one should touch my flowers.”
One day, my younger sister Clemence, who loved dad very much, wanted to help him. So she cut the carnation from their stems（枝干）one by one and arranged them on the ground. She believed that dad would be very pleased to see them that way.
When mom and I realized what my sister had done, we became completely speechless. However, my sister had no idea why no one showed her any appreciation. When dad arrived, he went as usual straight to watch the flowers. Seeing his flowers lying on the ground like dead animals, he was shocked at first. He looked towards the street to see if it was any of the neighbors’ children who could have done it. Then he looked at mom in silence. Finally mom, who always taught us to tell the truth no matter what, said, “No bad neighbors did this great job, only your lovely daughter Clemence.”

Greg Woodburn, a student at the University of Southern California, spends a lot of time cleaning sneakers he collected．But soon the shoes will be sent to poor children in the United States and 20 other countries, thanks to Woodburn’s Share Our Soles (S.O.S.) charity．
A high school track star in the town of Ventura, California, Woodburn was treated in hospital for months with knee and hip injuries．
“I started thinking about the health benefits, the friendship and the confidence I got from running,” he says, “And I realized there are children who don’t even have shoes．”
Woodburn gathered up his old sneakers, then asked his friends to donate．His goal was to have 100 pairs by Christmas this year．When he collected more than 500 pairs, he decided to turn the shoe drive into a year-round endeavor．
Back then, the sneakers came from donation boxes at the YMCA and the local sporting goods store and from door-to-door pickups．Woodburn has now set up collection boxes at two high schools, city gym and recreation center．He has started accepting adult sizes and sandals．So far, S.O.S has collected and donated more than 3,000 pairs．
Woodburn has cleaned all the shoes．After sorting the shoes by size, Woodburn selects the good shoes for the washing machine and the worn-out ones for recycling．
To ship the footwear, Woodburn teamed with Sports Gift, a nonprofit organization that provides soccer and baseball equipment to children around the world．Keven Baxter, founder and president, says, “We’d send kids balls and shoes．I've heard that for many of these kids, these old sneakers are the only shoes they had．They wear them to school and to do sports．So Greg’s running shoes were a nice addition for us．”
For many recipients, the shoes represent opportunity．Two young boys in Southern California attended school on alternate days because they shared a pair of shoes．They were too big for one boy and too small for the other．Thanks to S.O.S., each brother received his own pair of shoes．The boys now attend school daily and enjoy their learning．When they graduate, they say, they will help a stranger, just as Woodburn helped them．
小題1:What caused Greg Woodburn to donate old shoes for poor children?
A．The benefits from playing sports．
B．News about some poor children．
C．His reflection to school life．
D．The medical treatment he received．
小題2:When collecting more sneakers than expected, Woodburn decided to          ．
A．include adult sizes and sandals
B．set up branches in different cities

D．expand his endeavor in the whole city
小題3:How did Woodburn manage to deliver the shoes collected?
A．By sending them by mail．
B．By working with Sports Gift．
C．By advertising for those in need．
D．By offering them from door to door．
小題4:What can we learn from Keven Baxter’s remarks?
