A young man, a student in one of our universities, was one day taking a walk with a professor, who was commonly called the students’ friend, for his kindness to those who waited on his instructions.
    As they went along, they saw   21  in the path a pair of old shoes, which they supposed to belong to a poor man who was employed in a field close by, and who had   22  finished his day’s work.
 The student   23  the professor, saying, “Let’s play the man a(n)   24 : we will hide his shoes, and we stay behind those bushes, and wait to see his  25  when he cannot find them.”
   “My young friend,” answered the professor, “we should never  26  ourselves at the expense of the poor.You are   27 , and may give yourself a much greater pleasure by means of helping the poor man.Put a  28  into each shoe, and then we will hide ourselves and watch how the   29  affects him.”
   The student did so,  30  they both placed themselves behind the bushes close by.
   The poor man soon finished his work, and came   31  the field to the path where he had left his coat and shoes.While   32  his coat he slipped his foot into one of his shoes; but feeling something 33 , he bent down to feel what it was, and found the coin.
   Astonishment and wonder were seen upon his face.He gazed upon the coin, turned it round, and looked at it again and again.He then looked around 34  on all sides, but no person was to be seen.He now put the money into his pocket, and went on to put on the other shoe; but his surprise was  35  on finding the other coin.
   His feelings   36  him; he fell upon his  37 , looked up to heaven and let out a sincere thanksgiving, in which he spoke of his wife, sick and  38 , and his children without bread, whom the timely giving, from some unknown hand, would save from dying.
   The student stood there deeply affected, his eyes filled with tears.“Now,” said the professor,
“Are you not much better pleased than if you had played your  39  trick?” The youth replied, “You have taught me a lesson which I will never forget.I feel now the  40 of those words, which I never understood before: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”

One summer several years ago, my family was enjoying a barbecue on the beach. After the barbecue, my father-in-law invited me to go fishing.  Fishing was his hobby, but I   36  went fishing. We walked a little way along the beach and reached a rock by the shore, and I    37   the hook into the sea from there.  Frankly speaking, I am a (n)   38  person, and although I had not felt a tug (猛拽) on the line, I reeled up the hook after five minutes or so. I had caught    39 . It was a starfish. It trembled uneasily when I   40  the hook from its ugly mouth. I threw the starfish back into the sea. After another five minutes I caught another starfish and I threw it back again.
After a while, I caught yet another starfish. That was  41  time, and this time I really got angry. I hit the starfish on the rock   42  throwing it into the sea. I was not in the   43  to continue fishing any more.
When I was   44  the fishing tools, I noticed a little girl looking at the starfish on the rock. We   45  looks with each other. The little girl spoke to me in a   46  voice. “Sir, would you mind if I   47  the starfish back into the sea?”“Not at all,” I replied. “"But you know, there are too many starfish in the sea, and they eat many shellfish.   48 , they look so ugly. I don't like them.”
“I understand,” said the little girl. “But if the starfish cannot get back to the sea, it will be   49  by the sun and die. My dead grandfather once told me that there are no living creatures that have no right to exist in the world. God   50  every creature because it was needed by nature. Poisonous snakes, spiders, and starfish were born into this world with a certain   51  for their existence.”
“All right, dear, please throw the starfish back into the sea,” I said to the little girl, feeling   52 . The girl picked up the starfish and gently put it into the sea, and she  53  at me and said, “Thank you, sir.”
Many people like "cute" creatures such as dogs, cats, and rabbits, while they tend to dislike “ugly” creatures such as snakes, spiders, and starfish.  However, the “cuteness” and “ugliness” of things are decided   54  only on one’s personal opinions. There are no living creatures that have no  55  in the world-- this is what I learned from the little girl.

Two traveling angles stopped to spend the night in the home of a wealthy family. The family was rude and refused to let the angles stay in the mansion’s guestroom. Instead the angles were given a small space in the cold basement. As they made their bed in the hard floor, the older angel saw a hole in the wall and repaired it. When the younger angle asked why, the older angle replied, “Things aren’t always what they seem.”
The next night the pair came to rest at the house of a very poor, but very hospitable farmer and his wife. After sharing the little food they had the couple let the angles sleep in their bed where they could have a good night’s rest. When the sun came up the next morning the angles found the farmer and his wife in tears. Their only cow, whose milk had been their sole income, lay dead in the field. The younger angle was infuriated and asked the older angle how he could have let this happen. “The first man had everything, yet you helped him,” he accused. “The second family had little but was willing to share everything, and you let the cow die”.
“Things aren’t always what they seem,” the older angle replied. “when we stayed in the basement of the mansion, I noticed there was gold stored in that hole in the wall. Since the owner was so obsessed with greed and unwilling to share his good fortune, I sealed the wall so he wouldn’t find it.”
“Then last night as we slept in the farmer’s bed, the angle of death came for his wife. I gave him the cow instead. Things aren’t always what they seem.”

Andy rode slowly on his way to school, day-dreaming about the fishing trip that his father had promised him. He was so busy dreaming about all the fish he would catch that he was unaware of everything else around him.
He rode along until a strange sound drew him to the present. He came to a stop and looked curiously up to the heavens. What he saw shocked and terrified him. A huge swarm of bees filled the sky like a black cloud and the buzzing mass seemed to be heading angrily towards him.
With no time to waste, Andy sped off in the opposite direction, riding furiously—but without knowing how to escape the swarm. With a rapidly beating heart and his legs pumping furiously, he sped down the rough road. As the bees came closer, his panic (驚慌) increased. Andy knew that he was sensitive to bee stings(蜇). The last sting had landed him in hospital—and that was only one bee sting! He had been forced to stay in bed for two whole days. Suddenly, his father’s words came to him. “When you are in a tight situation, don’t panic. Use your brain and think your way out of it. ”
On a nearby hill, he could see smoke waving slowly skywards from the chimney of the Nelson family home. “Bees don’t like smoke,” he thought. “They couldn’t get into the house.” Andy raced towards the Nelson house, but the bees were gaining ground. Andy knew he could not reach the house in time. He estimated that the bees would catch up with him soon.
Suddenly, out of the corner of his eyes, he spotted a small dam used by Mr. Nelson to irrigate his vegetable garden. Off his bike and into the cool water he lived, disappearing below the surface and away from the savage insects. After holding his breath for as long as he could, Andy came up for air and noticed the bees had gone. Dragging himself out of the dam, he struggled up the hilly slope and rang the doorbell. Mrs. Nelson took him inside and rang his mother.
“You’ll really need that fishing break to help you recover,” laughed his mother with relief. “Thank goodness you didn’t panic!” But Andy did not hear her. He was dreaming once again of the fish he would catch tomorrow.
小題1:
Why did Andy fail to notice the swarm of bees earlier?
A.He was riding to school.
B.He was listening to a strange sound.
C.He was going fishing with his father.
D.He was lost in the thought of the fishing trip.
小題2:
Which of the following is NOT mentioned about the swarm of bees in the passage?
A.They crowded like a black cloud.
B.They shocked and terrified Andy.
C.They tried to attack Andy in a mass.
D.They made Andy stay in hospital for two days.
小題3:
How did Andy avoid the bees in the end?
A.He asked Mr. Nelson for help.
B.He did himself under the water.
C.He rushed into the Nelson house.
D.He rode off in the opposite direction.
小題4:
Which of the following can best describe Andy’s escape from the bees?

B.Once bitten, twice shy.
C.Where there is a will, there is a way.
D.In time of danger, one’s mind works fast.
