One afternoon, I was out exploring __46__ and saw a new kind of cactus(仙人掌). I crouched(蹲)down for a closer look. “You'd better not __47__ that”
I turned around to see an old woman.
“Are you new to this neighborhood?” I explained that I was, __48__,new to the entire state.
“My name is Ina Thorne.” Have you got used to life in the __49__? It must be quite a __50__ after living in Boston.”
How could I explain how I __51__ the desert? I couldn’t seem to find the right words.
“It’s vastness,” she offered. “That vastness __52__ you stand on the mountains overlooking the desert—you can __53__ how little you are in comparison with the world. __54__, you feel that the possibilities are limitless.”
That was it. That was the feeling I’d had ever since I’d first seen the mountains of my new home. Again, my __55__ would change with just a few simple words.
“Would you like to come to my home tomorrow?” Someone should teach you which plant you should and shouldn’t touch.”

When I was a law professor, a student reported that I made an error in grading his exam by giving him too many points.He was 41 and after thanking him for his honesty, I changed the grade in my  42  . His beaming(歡笑的)face turned to shock."You're  43  my grade?" he said angrily."I would never have come in  44  …"
He didn't finish the  45_ , but it was obvious that his display of honesty was  46_ .He thought he'd have it all —praise and the higher grade.
Several colleagues thought I should have let the higher grade 47  because all I'd accomplished was to discourage him from being  48 in the future.And every time I tell this story, some people agree to this   49 
But I can't see how I could give good reason for worsening my_ 50  in grading by undermining(損害) the honesty of all my grades by failing to  51 an error.The grade itself would be a dishonest  52  of his knowledge and it would have been 53 to other students.How could I  54 give a student a gift of an unearned grade?
I know 55 reporting an error in one's favor is unusual, but, like 56_ too much change, it's clearly the right thing to do.People of character, those with real honesty, hate to give up  57 as much as anyone else.The difference is that for them a good conscience and reputation is  58 
enough to give reason for the cost of doing the right thing.
Perhaps lowering the student's grade did  59 him from being honest in the future, but bribing(賄賂)him to be honest so that he does the right thing when its cost-free would have   60 him even more.The duty to be honest is about right and wrong, not risks and rewards.

As a young girl, Margaret “Mattie” Knight never played with dolls, preferring to make toys for her brothers instead. In 1849, Knight went to work in a cotton factory where she witnessed a “shuttle,” a device that carries thread back and forth across a textile loom(紡布機(jī)), fly off the machine when the thread broke, striking and killing a young boy about her own age.
The 12-year-old Knight developed a safety mechanism that made it impossible for a shuttle to leave the loom. The design was so effective, soon virtually every new power loom carried her invention, saving countless workers from injury or death. Being so young, she didn’t bother to patent the device, so she never received payment.
Knight wouldn’t make the same mistake later in life when she invented a machine that could produce flat-bottomed paper bags. Knight had built a small wooden model in her home, but she needed a metal version to show it could hold up to the stress of mass production. So she hired Charles Annan to make the full-sized machine for her, only to have him try to claim the patent for himself. When Knight sued(起訴), Annan’s argument was that the design had to be his, because no woman could possibly understand the complex mechanics. Knight proved him wrong when she brought back her wooden prototype and explained how every part worked. She won the case in 1871, making her the second woman to hold an American patent. Over a hundred years later, her design is still used as the basis for many modern flat-bottom bag machines.
But that wasn’t the last the world heard of Mattie Knight. During her lifetime, she made about 90 inventions and received 26 patents, becoming one of the most productive female inventors of the 19th century.
小題1:We can learn from Paragraph 1 that ________.
A.Knight behaved like boysB.Knight had an unhappy childhood
C.Knight did a poor job of making toysD.Knight liked inventing things as a child
小題2:What do we know about Knight’s first invention?
A.It is still used today.B.It brought her great profit.
C.It was made when he was 20.D.It reduced injuries at textile plants.
小題3:Knight sued Charles Annan because he _______.
A.stole the wooden model for the machine she invented.
B.failed to make the full-sized machine for her
C.tried to patent her invention for himself
D.kept the metal version for himself
小題4:What would be the best title for the text?
A.Mattie Knight’s fight for her patentB.A great woman in the 19th century
C.“The female Edison”, Mattie KnightD.Great inventions, great woman

Lisa was running late.She had a lot to do at work, plus visitors on the way; her parents were coming in for Thanksgiving from her hometown.But as she hurried down the subway stairs, she started to feel uncomfortably warm.By the time she got to the platform, Lisa felt weak and tired - maybe it hadn't been a good idea to give blood the night before, she thought.She rested herself against a post close to the tracks.
Several yards away, Frank, 43, and his girlfriend, Jennifer, found a spot close to where the front of the train would stop.They were deep in discussion about a house they were thinking of buying.
But when he heard the scream, followed by someone yelling, "Oh, my God, she fell in!" Frank didn't hesitate.He jumped down to the tracks and ran some 40 feet toward the body lying on the rails."No! Not you! his girlfriend screamed after him.
She was right to be alarmed.By the time Frank reached Lisa, he could feel the tracks shaking and see the light coming.The train was about 20 seconds from the station.
It was hard to lift her.She was just out.But he managed to raise her four feet to the platform so that bystanders could hold her by the arms and drag her away from the edge.That was where Lisa briefly re-gained consciousness, felt herself being pulled along the ground, and saw someone else holding her purse.
Lisa thought she' d been robbed.A woman held her hand and a man gave his shirt to help stop the blood pouring from her head.And she tried to talk but she couldn't, and that was when she realized how much pain she was in.
Police and fire officials soon arrived, and Frank told the story to an officer.Jennifer said her boyfriend was calm on their 40 - minute train ride downtown - just as he had been seconds after the rescue, which made her think about her reaction at the time."I saw the train coming and I was thinking he was going to die."she explained.
