Eighty-year-old retired tailor, James McKay, spent Saturday night in jail after __36__ thirty-year-old Keith Smith over the head __37__ his walking stick．McKay’s wife, Laurence told us that while McKay is usually a __38__ person, he had been __39__ to this act of violence by getting wet just once too often．
Smith lives above the McKays and it appears that not only is he a keen gardener, he is also a __40__ collector．Unfortunately for him, the water he sent over his balcony every day ended up on the McKay’s, or too often, on the McKays __41__．
“For the last fortnight, since Smith moved into the flat above us, we have hardly dared to go to our __42__,” said Laurene．She added that it wasn’t so much the water falling onto their balcony from Smith watering his plant __43__ bothered them, it was more the way he cleaned his fish tanks．“We’d be __44__ there happily reading our newspapers, when __45__ so much water would come from above that we’d be as wet as if we’d __46__ with our clothes on! Neither could we get rid of the __47__ of fish!”
And on Saturday evening it was just too __48__．“It was James’s birthday,” explained Laurene, “and I’d made him a birthday cake．The candles were a great sight as you can imagine, but James didn’t get to blow them out．” __49__, Smith emptied one of his larger tanks over his balcony and both the McKays and the cake were wet __50__．Rarely had Laurene seen McKay move so fast．“I couldn’t __51__ him．He was up there in a flash．It was the fastest I’d seen him move since 1964．”
Smith is not going to take things further with the police．He has also promised to change his__52__ from now on．And what of James McKay? __53__ he left the police station, a large crowd of supporters sang him, “Happy Birthday”．“__54__ the most exciting birthday __55__!” said the cheerful old man．“The best since my adolescence I’d say!”

文章大意：一位八十歲的退休老人在他過生日那天因用拐杖打一 個(gè)三十歲男子的頭部而被判入獄，起因是他無法忍受對方長期以來因 侍弄植物和養(yǎng)魚而每天把水淋到他家的陽臺(tái)上，甚至淋透了夫婦兩人 的衣服。事后，一大群支持者為他慶祝生日，老人感到無比幸福。
小題1:八十歲的James McKay 在監(jiān)獄中度過了星期六的夜晚，由此可知他“打”了三十歲的Keith Smith 的頭。 答案：A

小題1:每天Keith Smith 家陽臺(tái)上的水都會(huì)流到 James McKay家的陽臺(tái)上，而且經(jīng)常流到夫婦兩個(gè)人的身上。此處的反身代詞themselves 指的是James McKay 夫婦兩人。 答案：A
小題1:聯(lián)系上下文可知James McKay 夫婦幾乎不敢去“陽臺(tái)”。 下一句中的balcony 也是線索提示。 答案：B
小題1:她補(bǔ)充說特別困擾他們的不是對方因給植物澆水而把水流到了他們的陽臺(tái)上。本句是強(qiáng)調(diào)句型，被強(qiáng)調(diào)部分是主語“the water falling onto their balcony from Smith watering his plant。” 答案：C
小題1:他們正高興地“坐”著讀報(bào)紙時(shí)，突然被從上面陽臺(tái)上流下的水淋濕了。 答案：A
小題1:他們當(dāng)時(shí)正高興地看報(bào)，完全沒有想到會(huì)有大量的水流下來，所以是“突然”發(fā)生的事情。 答案：B
小題1:他們?nèi)矶紳裢噶耍路鹗谴┲路戳艘淮巍傲茉　薄?答案：C
小題1:根據(jù)本段中間部分的內(nèi)容可知從上面流下的是 Keith Smith 清洗魚缸的水，所以他們無法去掉魚的“氣味”。 答案：B
小題1:星期六晚上簡直太“過分”了。此處的much 表示的是程度。 答案：D
小題1:James McKay 沒有把那些蠟燭吹滅，“相反”，發(fā)生了另外一件意想不到的事情。 答案：C
小題1:Keith Smith 在上面清洗其中一只比較大的魚缸，所以夫婦兩人和蛋糕都濕透了。wet through 表示“濕透”。 答案：C
小題1:根據(jù)后面兩句中的內(nèi)容可知 Laurene無法阻止自己的丈夫。 答案：A
小題1:Keith Smith 不想讓事態(tài)進(jìn)一步擴(kuò)大，他也承諾從今以后改變自己的“行為方式”。 答案：D
小題1:當(dāng)他離開警察局的時(shí)候，一大群支持者為他唱生日快樂歌。 此處as 表示“當(dāng)……時(shí)候”。while 雖然也可以表示“當(dāng)……時(shí)候”，但是需要與延續(xù)性動(dòng)詞連用。 答案：D
小題1:根據(jù)下一句中的內(nèi)容可知老人當(dāng)時(shí)無比高興，認(rèn)為“肯定”是有生以來最令人興奮的生日。 答案：D

One day a very wealthy father took his son on a trip to the country with the firm purpose of showing his son how poor people can be.
They spent a couple of days and nights on the farm of  which  would be considered a very poor family. On their  return  from their trip, the father asked his son, “ How was the trip?”
“It was  great , Dad .”
“Did you see how poor people can be?” the father asked.
“Oh yeah?” said the son.
“So what did you  learn  from the trip?” asked the father.
The son answered, “I saw that we have one dog and they have four. We have a pool that  reaches  to the middle of our garden and they have a creek (小溪) that has  no  end. We have lanterns in our garden and they have the  stars  at night. We have a  small  piece of land to live on and they have fields that go  beyond  our sight. We have servants who serve us, but they serve  themselves . We buy our food, but they grow theirs. We have  walls  around our property（財(cái)產(chǎn)） to protect us but they have friends to protect them.”
With this the boy’s father was  speechless .
Then his son  added , “Dad, thank you for showing me how  poor  we are.”
Too many times we  forget  what we have and concentrate on what we don’t have. What is one person’s  priceless  object is another’s prize possession. It’s all  decided  on one’s perspective (視角). Think about what would happen if we all gave  thanks  for what we have,  instead of  worrying about what we don’t have.
Be thankful for every single thing in your life, exactly as it is now–and  especially  your friends. Be sure to take the time to express your appreciation and gratitude for the people whom you are close to.

I ran across an old photo of him the other day, thinking of some old things. He’s been dead for 25 years. His name was Rex.
36  was his favorite recreation(娛樂). He had so much 37 in the water as any person I have known. You didn’t have to throw a stick in the water to 38 him to go in. Of course, he would bring back a stick to you if you 39 throw one in.
That 40 me of that night, 41 he brought back a small box that he found somewhere--- how 42 nobody ever knew. Since it was Rex, it 43 easily have been half a race. The box wasn’t a good one. It was just a 44 old piece that somebody 45. Still it was something he wanted, probably 46 there was some difficulty in transportation（運(yùn)輸）. And that he thought could test his courage.

I suppose he would have held his own 52 dawn if we hadn’t helped him. The next day we carried the box miles away and threw it out. If we had thrown it out in a 53 place, he would have brought it home again, as a small token(象征)of his strength in such matters. 54, he had been taught to carry heavy wooden objects about and he was 55 of his skill.

      Several times on my way to work, I passed a gentleman who I supposed homeless. He had a lot of his possessions 36 down to his bike and held a cardboard sign that said he was a 37 who doesn’t drink or do drugs, but would 38 anything that could be given. He usually has 39 on and is listening to the radio. He is always 40 his own business, often reading 41 . I’ve never seen him  42 “begging”.
      Several times, while I was 43 him, I realized I had some food with me, so I turned 44 and offered him that food. He took off his headphones, and said, “Umm, blueberry muffins are my 45 !” with a big smile and a gleam in his 46 . He thanked me so 47 .
      The graciousness(有禮貌) and humbleness（謙遜） of his  48  makes me want to continue to stop by with “ 49 ” of food, money or other gifts. In the past, I’ve met 50 folks who 51 the food I was offering, saying that they wanted only money instead.
      So this wonderful gentleman being so open to receiving has been a 52 .

      When Charles Strattion was five, he stopped growing. His mother took him to see the famous showman, P.T.Barnum, and thought a small person would be the perfect addition to his show. He hired Charles’ parents along with him, and they traveled around the world together.
       He gave the two-foot-tall Charles a new name, general Tom Thumb. He taught Tom how to sing, dance, act, and tell jokes. When he felt Tom was ready to perform on stage, he made up ads. To stir up great interest, he said that Tom was eleven years old and had come from England. 
       During the show, Tom fought battles pretendedly with tall people. He also danced upon a wooden plate held by a person who was eight feet tall.
       Tom’s act was very popular and brought in a lot of money. By the time Tom was an adult, he had grown very rich. He had become a billionaire at the age of twenty-five.
       Fortunately for Tom, Mr. Barnum added more little people to his show, and Tom became lucky in love as well. One of the little people was Lavinia Warren, a school teacher. Tom was able to win her love, and they married.
       The ceremony and reception were the talk of the town. They were attended by many rich and famous people and by about two thousand guests. Crowds filled the streets of New York to have a look at their tiny wedding carriage. The couple even met with President Abraham Lincoln on their honeymoon, just before going to live in Tom’s house in Connecticut.
       Their wedding, which took place during the Civil War, provided a welcome escape from the sad problems of war. Not willing to let this bit of sunshine fade, communities throughout the country sponsored “Tom Thumb” weddings. In these weddings, small boys and girls, all dressed up, went through marriage ceremony for fun.

          Little Tommy was doing very badly in math. His parents had tried everything -- tutors, cards, special learning centers -- in short, everything they could think of. Finally they took Tommy to a catholic(天主教的) school.
       After the first day, little Tommy came home with a very serious look on his face. He didn't kiss his mother hello. Instead, he went straight to his room and started studying. Books and paper were spread(鋪開)out all over the room and little Tommy was hard at work. His mother was surprised. She called him down to dinner and as soon as he finished eating, he went back hitting the books as hard as before. This went on for some time, day after day while the mother tried to understand what was happening.
       Finally, little Tommy brought home his report card. He quietly put it on the table and went up to his room and hit the books. His mother looked at it and to her surprise, little Tommy got an A in math. She could no longer hold her curiosity(好奇心). She went to his room and asked, "son, what was it? Was it the nuns(修女)?"
       Little Tommy looked at her and shook his head(搖動(dòng)), "No."
       "Well then," she asked again. "What was it?"
       Little Tommy looked at her and said, "Well, on the first day of school, when I saw that man nailed(釘) to the plus sign(加號(hào)), I knew they weren't joking."
      小題1: Why did Tommy's parents send him to a catholic school?
      A．Because he could eat well there.
      B．Because he could learn more about nuns.
      C．Because his parents wanted him to do better in his math.
      D．Because his parents didn't want him to learn math any more.

      A．was still the same
      B．a(chǎn)te so much at dinner
      C．kissed her hello after school

      Dear Sir, 
      I have to travel every day from Souk Road to the airport． Two buses travel along their route (路線): the number 49 and number 16． But by the time the number 16 bus reaches Souk Road it is always full, so I can’t get on it． I have to wait for the number 49, because sometimes there are empty seats on it．
      The timetable says that there are buses from Souk Road to the airport every ten minutes． If this is so, why do I have to wait half an hour for a bus nearly every day?
      The regulations say that if there are empty seats on a bus, the bus must stop at every stop where people are waiting． Why do the half-empty buses go straight past me when I am standing at the bus stop?
      The regulations say that no bus may carry more than 40 seated passengers  and 20 standing passengers． Yesterday I was the first to get off the bus when it reached the airport． I counted the other passengers as they got off． There were 129 of them．
      It is clear that our bus companies break the regulations and think little of their passengers． Can nothing be done to make your service  better?
      Yours
      Tired passenger

      小題2:How long does the writer usually have to wait for a bus?

      小題3:The regulations say that each bus may carry       passengers at most．
      A．20B．40C．60D．129
      小題4:From the passage we can see that      ．
      A．the bus service was poor
