Years ago, I worked in an office in Halifax. We had large windows overlooking a busy street. I stood by one of them. When a woman in a passing car __36__and made eye contact, naturally, I __37__. 
It was the beginning of a year of window antics（古怪行徑）. When things were __38 _, I stood in the window and waved at the passengers who looked up. And this made me laugh- work __39__ was washed away.  It didn't __40__ long to attract the following - a man with a construction truck, the carpool crowd and the business lady with her children…. When waving became ___41___, I made signs: "Hi!", "Hello!", "Be Happy!" I ___42__ them in the window and waved. 
Christmas approached. Job cuts were announced. Several co-workers would ___43___their jobs. Stress reached a high point. Everyone was ___44__. We needed something to break the tension. While working a night __45 _, a red lab jacket __46_  my attention. I used my __47__ and turned it into a Santa’s costume. The next day my co-workers gathered around me and __48 _for the first time in weeks. Just then my boss walked through the door. He looked up, saw me, paused, __49__ his head, turned and left.
I __50_ trouble. The phone on the desk rang. It was my boss. "Mike, come to my office!"  Entering his office, I felt nervous. "Mike... "That was all he managed to say. Tears _51__  in his eyes, as I sat silent and confused. When he regained __52_ , he said, "Thanks, Mike! With the job cuts, it's been hard to enjoy the __53__season. Thanks for the laugh, I needed it.”
That evening, and every evening of the Christmas season, I stood __54__ in the window and waved to my __55_ . The bus crowd waved wildly, and the little children smiled at the strange Santa. My heart filled with joy. For a few minutes each day, we could forget the loss of jobs.

A long time ago, there was a seed and because he was only a seed, nobody noticed him. Thus, feeling inferior (低級(jí)的), the seed gave no importance to his existence (存在). Then one day, a wind picked him up and threw him on an open field in the sun. Later, he was given rain. Years later he saw a traveler sitting by his side. "Thank you God for this. I really need some rest," he heard the traveler say. "What are you talking about?" the seed quickly asked. He thought the man was making fun of him. No one ever spoke to him like that. "Who just spoke?" the shocked man asked. "It is me. A seed." "A seed?" The man looked at the big tree. "Are you joking? You are not a seed. You are a big tree!" "Really?" "Yes! Why else do you think people come here?" "What do they come here for?" "To feel your shade (樹(shù)陰)! Don’t tell me you didn’t know you had grown over time." A moment passed before the traveler’s words brought him pride. The seed thought and smiled for the first time in his life.

Her frozen fingers touched the flame trying to feel alive. She could feel the warmth but it was a cold heat, as if the candle was rejecting her.
Her arms turned red because of the cold, her short sleeved shirt not giving her enough warmth. The winter air grabbed(抓住) at her arms, causing her pain, but she didn’t mind. She knew she should put her jacket on, it was winter in Connecticut, but that would be giving up. Up here, in this tree she felt safe.
She looked at the candle, surrounded by hardening wax(蠟). She placed her fingers gently on the warm green wax. This candle was a reminder of her life inside that house, a life she would have to return to eventually.
As a child, she had gotten this candle. She spent all she had on it. The beautiful crystal box （水晶盒）had caught her eye. Five whole nickels（五分幣） had brought her that candle.
She gave it to her mother for Mother’s Day. Her mother had managed a smile and put it on a shelf. “It’s very pretty, honey! I will put it right here.” Since then that candle had never been moved, never been lighted, sitting dusty on a cluttered shelf that no one could see. Later on, her parents got divorced.
By now the candle was colder than the air and the darkness was complete. The snow on the ground made the night lighter and less satisfying than it had been before the first snowfall. She liked the darkness because she felt safe in it. From the glances of her friends who liked the girl she used to be. From the boys who could never figure out who she was. From her guidance counselor(顧問(wèn)) whose endless worried looks never made her feel any better.
No one was outside at this time of night. She was alone in the world, just how she liked it. Just as she was about to lean back against the branch, she heard a sound.
She heard footsteps breaking the ice in the snow, heading toward her. He was making his way toward the white fence at the edge of the building, right against the road. Normally she would have ignored this person and stayed on her branch faraway from human contact, but this figure had something with him. He trudged(吃力地走) toward the white fence carrying a case. The figure reached the fence, opened the case and took out a shiny object.
She took her eyes off this figure only long enough to climb down the tree to get a better view of him. She reached the bottom and saw that the person had turned to face the street, sitting on the white fence that she and her friends once sat on. She stepped carefully on the ice, making her way toward him.
And then a beautiful sound of music came from the shiny object. She stopped and listened to it. She started walking towards the guy again. Just as she was about to step onto the snow banks, she slipped on the ice crashing to the ground. The figure turned around in surprise and a sudden recognition fell upon them both.
小題1:The girl was hiding in the tree at deep night to ______.
A．keep herself from the coldB．wait for the boy to come
C．want to be left aloneD．seek safety from any hurt
小題2:From the story, we can learn that ______.
A．the girl suffered a lot in her life
B．the girl’s parents divorced because of her
C．teachers and friends treated the girl badly
D．the girl used to stay in the tree when feeling sad
小題3:The underlined word “it” in the story refers to ______.
A．leaning back against the branchB．being alone in the world
C．not being disturbed at nightD．it being dark with snow around
小題4:From the end of the story, it can be known that the girl _______.
A．knew the personB．knew what the object was
C．realized her wishesD．would never feel alone any more

In his lowest days when few people bought his records, Taiwan singer Steve Chou lived alone in Canada and did little. One day, he passed by a local CD store and heard a song that greatly attracted him.
“My heart tells me that music is the thing I truly want to do, not for fame or money,” Chou said. That’s how we luckily have such a music genius, who has since then composed lots of hits for the pop music charts (排行榜). 
“Sometimes we need to get close to nature to look deeply into our souls and see what we really want to follow,” he said.
Recently he has made public his latest work Lovers Genesis. In this album he explores human relationships in the Internet age.“Technology itself is a good thing, but it depends on how you’re going to use it,”is Chou’s advice to teenagers.
Chou often gets his music ideas from trips. He has traveled to many places around the world and believes that learning a country’s language is the fastest way of experiencing the culture behind it.
Chou has worked hard on learning English to push forward his music career. He has flown to the UK to attend months-long English training schools three times. There he lives with local families and practices daily conversations.

A few years ago, an Englishman called Roy Jones went on holiday to a small seaside town in the west of England. He was swimming in the sea one day when, as he opened his mouth, his false teeth fell out and floated away. The following year, Mr. Jones returned to the same town. As he was having dinner in a local café one evening, he mentioned the story of his lost teeth to the manager. The manager looked surprised. He explained that he had found a set of false teeth on the beach last month. Then he asked Roy Jones if he wanted to try them on. “OK”, said Mr. Jones. “I suppose it won’t do any harm.” When the manager brought him the teeth, Mr. Jones put them into his mouth, and laughed and laughed. They were his.
In 1987, an American couple called Jane and Robert Bentley went for a picnic on a beach in California. When they returned home, Mrs. Bentley realized that she had lost her wedding ring. It wasn’t a lot of money but it was valuable to Jane Bentley. The Bentleys drove straight back to the beach, and searched for the ring for three hours, but could not find it. A few months later, Mr. Bentley went fishing off the same beach. As he pulled a large crab out of the sea, he noticed that there was something attached to one of its claws. It was his wife’s wedding ring!
At the end of the 19th century, a young woman called Rose Harcourt was on her honeymoon in Barmouth, North Wales, when she lost a gold bracelet her husband had given her as a wedding gift.

Twenty-five years later, the Harcourts returned to Barmouth to celebrate their wedding anniversary.
