Back in the 15th century, in a tiny village in Germany, lived a family with eighteen children．Eighteen! In order  36  to keep food on the table, the father, a goldsmith by  37  , worked almost eighteen hours a day at his trade．Despite their seemingly   38  condition, two of the eldest children had a dream．They both wanted to pursue their talent for art,  39  they knew well that their father would never be able to 40  either of them to study at the Academy．
After many long discussions at night in their  41  bed, the two boys finally worked out a pact．They would toss （擲） a coin．The   42   would go down into the nearby mines and, with his earnings,   43  his winning brother for the academy．Then, in four years, he would support the Other one．Then Albrecht Durer won the toss and  44 to Nuremberg．Albert went down into the dangerous mines and, for the next four years,   45 his brother, whose work at the academy was almost an immediate sensation．By the time he graduated, he was beginning to   46 considerable fees for himself．
When the young artist  47  home and said to his brother, "And now, Albert, blessed brother of mine, now it is your   48  . Now you can go to the Academy to pursue your dream, and I will  49  you．"
Albert rose and wiped the  50   from his cheeks．"No, brother．I cannot go to Nuremberg．It is too  51  for me．Look…look what four years in the mines have done to my 52  ! I cannot even hold a glass, much less make delicate lines on canvas   53  a pen or a brush．"
More than 450 years have  54 ．By now, among Albrecht Durer's hundreds of masterful portraits, "The Praying Hands" is one  55  creation that can catch the world's hearts．

Goldie’s Secret
She turned up at the doorstep of my house in Cornwall. No way could I have sent her away. No way, not me anyway. Maybe someone had kicked her out of their car the night before. “We’re moving house.” “No space for her any more with the baby coming.” “We never really wanted her, but what could we have done? She was a present.” People find all sorts of excuses for abandoning an animal. And she was one of the most beautiful dogs I had ever seen.
I called her Goldie. If I had known what was going to happen I would have given her a more creative name. She was so unsettled during those first few days. She hardly ate anything and had such an air of sadness about her. There was nothing I could do to make her happy, it seemed. Heaven knows what had happened to her at her previous owner’s. But eventually at the end of the first week she calmed down. Always by my side, whether we were out on one of our long walks or sitting by the fire.
That’s why it was such a shock when she pulled away from me one day when we were out for a walk. We were a long way from home, when she started barking and getting very restless. Eventually I couldn’t hold her any longer and she raced off down the road towards a farmhouse in the distance as fast as she could.
By the time I reached the farm I was very tired and upset with Goldie. But when I saw her licking (舔) the four puppies (幼犬) I started to feel sympathy towards them. “We didn’t know what had happened to her,” said the woman at the door. “I took her for a walk one day, soon after the puppies were born, and she just disappeared.” “She must have tried to come back to them and got lost,” added a boy from behind her.
I must admit I do miss Goldie, but I’ve got Nugget now, and she looks just like her mother. And I’ve learnt a good lesson: not to judge people.
小題1:.
How did the author feel about Goldie when Goldie came to the house?
A．Shocked.B．Annoyed.C．Sympathetic.D．Upset.
小題2:.
. In her first few days at the author’s house, Goldie      .
A．sat by the fireB．was angry
C．a(chǎn)te a littleD．felt worried
小題3:.
Goldie rushed off to a farmhouse one day because she ­    .
A．found her way to her old homeB．heard familiar barkings
C．wanted to leave the authorD．saw her puppies
小題4:.
The passage is organized in order of ­    .
A．effectivenessB．timeC．importanceD．complexity

I was waiting for a phone call from my agent. He had left a message the night before, telling me that my show was to be cancelled. I called him several times, but each time his secretary told me that he was in a meeting and that he would call me later. So I waited and waited, but there was still no call. Three hours passing by, I became more and more impatient. I was certain that my agent didn’t care about my work, and he didn’t care about me. I was overcome with that thought. I started to shout at the phone, “Let me wait, will you? Who do you think you are?”
At that time I didn’t realize my wife was looking on. Without showing her surprise, she rushed in, seized the phone, tore off the wires, and shouted at the phone, “Yeah! Who do you think you are? Bad telephone! Bad telephone! ” And she swept it into the wastebasket.
I stood watching her, speechless .What on earth?
She stepped to the doorway and shouted at the rest of the house, “Now hear this! All objects in this room-if you do anything to upset my husband, out you go!”
Then she turned to me, kissed me, and said calmly, “Honey, you just have to learn how to take control.” With that, she left the room.
After watching a crazy woman rushing in and out, shouting at everything in sight, I noticed that something in my mood（情緒）had changed. I was laughing. How could I have trouble with that phone? Her antics helped me realize I had been driven crazy by small things. Twenty minutes later my agent did call. I was able to listen to him and talk to him calmly.

People have wondered for a long time how their personalities and behaviors are formed．It is not easy to explain why one person is intelligent and another is not, or why one is cooperative and another is competitive．
Social scientists are, of course, extremely interested in these types of questions．They want to explain why we possess certain characteristics and exhibit certain behaviors．There are no clear answers yet, but two distinct schools of thought on the matter have developed．As one might expect, the two approaches are very different from one another, and there is a great deal of debate between proponents of each theory．The controversy is often referred to as  “nature and nurture”．
Those who support the “nature” side of the conflict believe that our personalities and behavior patterns are largely determined by biological and genetic factors．That our environment has little, if anything, to do with our abilities, characteristics, and behavior is central to this theory．Taken to an extreme, this theory maintains that our behavior is predetermined to such a degree that we are almost completely governed by our instincts（本能）．
Proponents of the “nurture” theory, or, as they are often called, behaviorists, claimed that our environment is more important than our biologically based instincts in determining how we will act．A behaviorist, B．F．Skinner, sees humans as beings whose behavior is almost completely shaped by their surroundings．The behaviorists’ view of the human being is quite mechanistic; they maintain that, like machines, humans’ respond to environmental stimuli（刺激） as the basis of their behavior．
Socially and politically, the consequences of these two theories are far-reaching．In the US, for example, blacks often score below whites on standardized intelligence tests．This leads some “anature” proponents to conclude that blacks are genetically lower in status than whites．Behaviorists, on the contrary, say that the differences in scores are due to the fact that blacks are often robbed of many of the educational and other environmental advantages that whites enjoy, and that, as a result, they do not develop the same responses that whites do．
Either of these theories cannot yet fully explain human behavior．In fact, it is quite likely that the key to our behavior lies somewhere between these two extremes．That the controversy will continue for a long time is certain．
小題1:This passage is mainly concerned with             ．
A．relation between personality and behavior
B．relation between behavior and environment
C．different accounts of patterns of human behavior
D．different theories of the formation of human behavior
小題2:The underlined word " proponents'' in paragraph 2 means          ．
A．creatorsB．a(chǎn)dvisorsC．a(chǎn)dvocatesD．judges
小題3:In paragraph 5 , the author mainly writes about          ．
A．the considerable influence of the two theories
B．differences between the blacks and whites
C．racial discrimination in the United States
D．different responds to intelligence tests
小題4:What's the author's purpose in writing the passage?
A．To call our attention to the changes of human behavior．
B．To urge scientists to do more research in social science．
C．To give us a detailed explanation of human behavior．
D．To present an argument in the field of social science．

If a person tells you that something is “the real McCoy”，he is telling you it is the real thing，not a copy or replacement．There is nothing false about “the real McCoy”．It is the best that can be found．
There are different ideas on how the expression came into common use．Perhaps the most popular story is about a famous boxer，Charles Kid McCoy，a one-time world famous welter-weigh champion．One day，McCoy was having a drink in a bar with a lady friend．A man came up and began to talk to her．He was not a nice man．
McCoy wanted no trouble．He asked the man to leave．He said．“I'm Kid McCoy．”McCoy thought his name was so well-known that he didn’t need to say more．But the man did not believe him．“Oh，yeah?” he said．“Well，if you are Kid McCoy，then I am George Washington!” And he continued to speak to the prize-fighter’s friend in all unpleasant way．
McCoy hit the man with a fist－not hard－actually it was really a light touch．But the man fell to the ground，unconscious．Ten minutes later，when he came to sense，he called out. “That was the real McCoy!” And so，as told by kid McCoy，that was how the expression “the real McCoy” got started．
There are other versions，however．One is that the expression goes back to the days of prohibition（禁止）when it was illegal in the United States to sell whiskey．Although whiskey was against the law，many sold it．And many sold bad whiskey．They were not afraid to do so，because there was so little that anybody could do about it．Buying whiskey，good or had，was as illegal as selling it．
But there was one whiskey dealer who was honest．His name was McCoy．He refused to sell bad whiskey．He sold  only the best imported whiskey．His product became recognized as the best．It was called “the real McCoy”．
The expression survived prohibition days and soon became a general term．One way or another，no matter how the expression began，“the real McCoy” is an expression that everyone understands．It means the one and only—the best one．They are indeed words of special praise．
小題1:What is the main idea of the first paragraph?
A．It is about the exact meaning of the version．
B．It tells how a person gets his name．
C．It shows how to tell the real from the false．
D．It explains how to find the best．
小題2:In the third paragraph，“the prize-fighter” refers to______．
A．a(chǎn) championB．George Washington
C．a(chǎn) fellowD．McCoy
小題3:Which of the following is TRUE about the days prohibition?
A．A national law forbade the sale of alcoholic drinks．
B．Bad whiskey was not allowed to sell．
C．People at that time preferred nothing but whiskey．
D．The days of prohibition resulted in MeCoy’s selling wine．
小題4:What is the main idea of the whole passage?
A．The story of a famous boxer．
B．The general use of the version．
C．The expression and its story．
D．The friendship between an athlete and a seller．
