I could have easily gone through life without getting to know one of the most romantic feelings…love for a dog. For at least ten years my       had been suggesting that we get a dog．There were several reasons why the idea     . We had noticed that, on our block, couples with no children as a rule        one large or two small dogs. So we got one puppy       we too had no children.
He flew into the house with the        of a Formula 1(一級方程式賽車). In several minutes he ran over all the house,        from my shoulder onto the bed, and ended up in the       , where my wife washed him with motherly     . From that day on, the invisible(看不見的)       for the love of the new member of our household began at my home.
He seemed to        that at once. Most of the meals that my wife had        for him with greater care than those for me…h(huán)e didn’t        look at.
Every evening I went out walking with him. I could not know who was walking whom      one evening, when, tired from work, I      the walk. The dog was very angry and dragged me out.
Last night our dog pulled me by the ear with his teeth,        me up in my dream, and dragged me into the kitchen to make me turn off the       which had disturbed(干擾) his sleep. I meekly(乖乖地)      that I had forgotten to switch off the light, but that was not       . He looked at me like a teacher at a pupil who repeatedly makes      .
Now we finally know who’s the        at home, and for twenty years we had seriously argued whether it was my wife or I.

I was very sympathetic with world leaders burdened with resolving conflicts between nations. When my three children were young, in most days it was hard to keep my house from becoming a war zone. It got worse as they grew older. Three years ago, Zack, then 16, couldn’t make it through a day without playing tricks on his sisters, Alex and Taryn, then 11 and 9.
My husband and I tried to understand his adolescent moodiness. We begged, reasoned, punished, and left heartfelt notes on his bed about how his behavior was hurting our family. His response was a shrug and “I say it because it’s true”.
I even tried telling the girls to fight back. But it was a bad idea. Now I had three kids at war. At wit’s end, I poured my heart out to my sister in an e-mail. She wrote back, “Don’t e-mail me. E-mail him.”
Our son was online every day, mailing and instantly messaging his friends. So what if I was within shouting distance? Maybe he would actually hear me this way. There’d be no yelling or door slamming（猛然關(guān)閉）. Zack wouldn’t feel under attack. And with a few simple keystrokes, he could respond. Or not. Zack didn’t reply for days. When he finally did, his entire message was four words. I expected the worst, but then smiled when I read them, ”You are right. I’m sorry.” The kids still fought, of course, but Zack scaled back the abuse (惡習(xí)). Best of all, I now have an effective way to communicate with not one but three easily annoyed teens. They don’t tune me out as much. They don’t like to listen to me nag (嘮叨) .Or as Alex says, “You’re so much nicer online.”
All I know is that the house is quiet, and we’re talking. In fact, Taryn just instantly messaged me from upstairs. It’s time to take her to softball practice.
小題1:The purpose of this passage is to tell us _________ .
A．how to solve family problems
B．how a mother shows her love to her children
C．how to treat kids in a more sensible way
D．the value of understanding between parents and children
小題2:By the first sentence of the passage, the author really means to be_______.
A．humourousB．sympatheticC．seriousD．inspiring
小題3:How did Zack react when the author first tried to stop his bad behavior？
A．He was annoyed and got worse.
B．He talked back to the author.
C．He felt sorry and changed.
D．He was persuaded and acted politely.
小題4:Zack stopped fighting with his sisters because _________ .
A．his mother learned how to mail him
B．his mother stopped yelling and nagging
C．his sisters learned to instantly message him
D．his mother had more friendly communications with him online

Dear Dad,
Today I was at the shopping mall and I spent a lot of time reading the Father's Day cards. They all had a special message that in some way or another reflected how I feel about you. Yet as I selected and read, it occurred to me that not a single card said what I really want to say to you.
You'll soon be 84 years old, Dad, and you and I will have had 55 Father's Days together. I haven't always been with you on Father's Day but I've always been with you in my heart.
You know, Dad, there was a time when we were separated by the generation gap. You stood on one side of the Great Divide and I on the other.
The Father-Daughter Duel shifted into high gear ( 檔位) when you taught me to drive the old Dodge and I decided I would drive the '54 Chevy whether you liked it or not. The police officer who sent me home, after you reported the Chevy stolen, didn't have much tolerance for a stub­born 16 year old, while you were so tolerant about it, Dad, and I think that was probably what made it the worst night of my life.
Our relationship greatly improved when I married a man you liked, and things really turned around when we began making babies right and left. Somewhere along the line, the generation gap disappeared. I suppose I saw us and our relationship as aging together, rather like a fine wine.
But the strangest thing happened last week. I was at a stop sign and I watched as you turned the corner in your car. It didn't immediately occur to me that it was you because the man driving looked so elderly and fragile behind the wheel of that huge car. It was rather like a slap in the face delivered from out of nowhere. Perhaps I saw your age for the first time that day.
I guess what I'm trying to say, Dad, is what every son and daughter wants to say to their Dad today. Honoring a father on Father's Day is about respect and sharing and acceptance and tolerance and giving and taking. It's about loving someone more than words can say, and it's wishing that never had to end.
I love you, Dad.
Love,
Jenny
小題1:How did Jenny probably feel on the night she was sent home by the police?
A．Disappointed. B．Nervous. C．Guilty.D．Frightened.
小題2:We can learn from the passage that Jenny and her father_________.
A．kept in touch by writing each other
B．a(chǎn)re separated due to the generation gap
C．have been getting along very well
D．had a hard time understanding each other
小題3:Why did Jenny feel strange when she saw her father last week?.
A．She seldom saw him driving that huge car.
B．She had never realized his being old and weak.
C．She didn't expect to meet with him there.
D．She had never seen him driving so slowly before.
小題4:Jenny wrote his father this letter to _________
A．tell him about their conflicts
B．say sorry for her being stubborn
C．express her gratitude to him
D．remind him of the early incident

A nameless British millionaire is currently putting people to the test by handing out ￡1，000 to those he randomly meets in the street.All he'd ask is that they'd do something positive with the cash.The reactions are varied，from the surprised to the suspicious to the simply delighted.He has given away close to ￡100，000 to people he has met around the world.He hands those that he chooses a card explaining his project and allows them 48 hours to get in touch.
“Mr.Lucky” is from London，in his late thirties and appears wearing rolled－up jeans and with a camera around his neck.Working for an insurance company abroad，he earned his fortune and resigned last year after having realized he had more money than he knew what to do with.
“I once booked myself a flight into space；I thought I'd fulfill my childhood dream.Then I told my friends and when the conversation changed to what they would do if they had that amount of money，I felt embarrassed.Their ideas were much more generous，interesting and responsible than mine，” said Mr.Lucky.After canceling his space flight and struggling to choose a worthy cause for his cash，he decided to set up the WeAreLucky project.“I didn't want to just pass on my luck；I also wanted to share the responsibility.I decided to give away ￡1，000 every day.I'd asked the receivers to fill in a brief questionnaire to explain their intentions in using the money.”
But is handing over the responsibility to others really a responsible thing to do? How does he know the money will be used properly? “I'm not going to judge or start checking up on them.Sometimes what we need to do is just believing others，” he said with nearly child­like enthusiasm.
