I am a mother of three and have recently completed my college degree. My teacher’s last  36  of the term was called “ Smile”. I am a very friendly person and always  37  at everyone. So I thought this would be very  38 .
Soon after we were given the project, my  39  went out to McDonald’s. We were waiting to be  40 , when all of a sudden everyone around us began to  41 , and even my husband did. There standing behind me were two homeless men  42 .
As I looked down at the short gentleman with  43  eyes, he said, “Good day.” The second man stood behind his friend. I  44  the second man was mentally challenged(智障) and the blue-eyed gentleman was his helper.
The young  45  at the counter asked him what they wanted.
He said, “Coffee is all, Miss.” Because that was all they could  46 .
I smiled and asked the young lady to give me two more breakfast meals on a  47  tray(托盤). I then said to the men, “ I did not do this for you. God is here  48  through me to give you hope.”
When I joined my husband, he smiled at me, saying, “That is  49  God gave you to me, Honey, to give me hope.”
I returned to  50  with this story in hand. I  51  “my project” and the teacher read it. Then she looked up at me and said, “Can I  52  this with the class?”
I slowly  53  and she began to read and that was when I knew that we, as human beings, share this to help people and to be  54 .
In my own way I had  55  the people at McDonald’s, my husband, sons, teacher, and every person that shared the classroom on the last night I spent as a college student.

Honesty, my mum always used to tell me, is the best policy. Of course, this didin’t include her when she told me that if I didn’t eat all my vegetables Father Christmas would find out and wouldn’t give me any presents.
But when it comes to medicine, I had assumed it was important to always be honest with my patients. After all, the doctor patient relationship is based on trust, and therefore honesty is essential, Or so I thought.
I had just started working in geriatrics(老年病科). Mr. McMahon was brought in when his baby was faound very swollen. I took a medical history from his daughter would accompanied him in the ambulance. She’d been his main carer for years. I stood looking at him as she gave a detailed history. “Has he lost any weight recently?” I asked, “Well, it’s funny you should mention that, but yes.” She said slowly. There was silence for a few moments. “Why? What are you worried about?” she asked, I hesitated. She was obviously very involved in his care and it was only fair that I told her the truth. “Well, we need to prove it’s not cancer.” I said and talked briefly about some of the tests I was going to order.
Half an hour later, a nurse called me: “Mr. McMahon’s daughter broke down－she said you told her he had cancer.” My heart sank. By the time I arrived at the ward, my consultant was already there, explaining that we still had to run lots of tests and that it was by no means confirmed that he had cancer. I stood silently at the end of the bed. My consultant was obviously angry with me and as we left Mr. McMahon, she turned to me. “Why on carch did you do that?” she asked to disbelief. I looked at her andbit my hp. “She asked me what I was worried about and I told her.” I said, hanging my head. “And give her more to worry about?” replied my consultant. “You don’t say the word ‘cancer’ until it’s confirmed. Even if you suspect it, think very carefully before you tell people.”
As it turned out, it wasn’t cancer. But I did learn that when somecone is stressed and worried about their loved one they’re sometimes selective in what they hear－and as a doctor it’s important to be mindful of this. In being truthful, I’d made the situation worse.

My father was Chief engineer of a merchant ship, which was sunk in Word War II. The book Night of the U-boats told the story.
Memories
In September, 1940, my mother, sister and I went to Swansea, where my father’s ship was getting ready to sail. We brought him a family photograph to be kept with him at all times and keep him sale.
Then I remember my mother lying lace down, sobbing. She had heard from a friend that the ship had been sunk by a torpedo(魚雷).
I can remember the arrival of the telegram(電報),Which in those days always brought had new. My grandmother opened it. It read, “Safe, Love Ted.”
My most vivid memory Is being woken and brought down to sit o my father’s knee, his arm in a bandage.
He was judged unfit to return to sea and took a shore job in Glasgow for the rest of the war. For as long as I can remember, he had a weak heart. Mother said it was caused by the torpedoes. He said it was because of the cigarettes. Whichever, he died suddenly in his early 50s.
Ten years later I read Night of the U-bouts and was able to complete the story.
Torpedo
One torpedo struck the ship. Father was in the engine room, where the third engineer was killed. He shut down the engines to slow the ship making it easier for it to be abandoned.
By the time he got on deck (甲板) he was alone. Every lifeboat was gone except one which had stuck fast. When he tried to cut it free it swung against the ship, injuring his hand and arm. He had no choice but to jump—still with the photograph in his pocket.
Three days later, he and other survivors were safe in Glasgow. All 23 with him signed the back of the photograph.
In my room is the book and the photograph. Often, glass in hand, I have wondered how I would have dealt with an explosion, a sinking ship, a jump into a vast ocean rind a wait for rescue? Lest（以免）we forget, I have some more whisky and toast the heroes of the war.

I was sure that I was to be killed. I became terribly nervous. I felt blindly in my pockets to see if there were any cigarettes, which had   31  the search of jailers (people who guard prisoners).

Perhaps it was   37 , perhaps it was because, when you get very close, one to another, it is very   38  not to smile. In any case, I smiled. In that instant, it was as though a   39  jumped across the gap between our two hearts, our two human souls. I know he didn't want to, but my smile leaped through the bars and   40  a smile on his lips, too. He lit my cigarette but stayed   41 , looking at me directly in the eyes and continuing to smile.
I kept smiling at him, now   42  of him as a person and not just a jailer. “Do you have   43 ?” he asked. “Yes, here.” I took out my wallet and nervously felt for the   44  of my family.

Zoe Chambers was a successful PR (Public Relations) consultant (顧問) and life was going well—she had a great job, a beautiful flat and a busy social life in London. Then one evening in June last year, she received a text message telling her she was out of work. “The first two weeks were the most difficult to live through,” she said. “After everything I’d done for the company, they dismissed me by text! I was so angry and I just didn’t feel like looking for another job. I hated everything about the city and my life.”
Then, Zoe received an invitation from an old school friend, Kathy, to come and stay. Kathy and her husband, Huw, had just bought a farm in northwest Wales. Zoë jumped at the chance to spend a weekend away from London, and now, ten months later, she is still on the farm.
“The moment I arrived at Kathy’s farm, I loved it and I knew I wanted to stay,”said Zoe.“Everything about my past life suddenly seemed meaningless.”
Zoe has been working on the farm since October of last year and says she has no regrets. “It’s a hard life, physically very tiring,” she says.“In London I was stressed and often mentally exhausted. But this is a good, healthy tiredness. Here, all I need to put me in a good mood is a hot bath and one of Kathy’s wonderful dinners.”
Zoe says she has never felt bored on the farm. Every day brings a new experience. Kathy has been teaching her how to ride a horse and she has learnt to drive a tractor. Since Christmas, she has been helping with the lambing—watching a lamb being born is unbelievable, she says,“It’s one of the most moving experiences I’ve ever had. I could never go back to city life now.”
小題1: When she worked as a PR consultant in London, Zoë thought she lived a         life.
A．meaninglessB．toughC．boringD．satisfying
小題2: The most important reason why Zoe went to visit Kathy’s farm is that         .
A．Kathy persuaded her to do soB．Zoe lost her job as a PR consultant
C．Zoe got tired of the city lifeD．Zoe loved Wales more than London
小題3: How does Zoe feel about the country life according to the passage?
A．Physically tiring but rewarding.B．Romantic and peaceful.
C．Mentally exhausting but healthy.D．Tiresome and troublesome
小題4: Which of the following is closest to the main idea of the passage?
A．A friend in need is a friend indeed.B．A misfortune may turn out a blessing.
C．Kill two birds with one stone.D．Where there is a will, there is a way.

A few days ago my wife sent me out to buy something. When I came home, I handed(交給) her a paper bag and said, “Here are the apples you wanted.” She looked in the bag, and then she looked at me. “I told you,” she said slowly, “to buy some eggs.”
I felt worried about my absent-mindedness, so I went to see a doctor. He was a very kind man. “I have seen many people like you. It’s nothing to worry about,” he said. “If you know you are absent-minded, you are all right. But if you do not know you’re absent-minded, you may be really in trouble.”
“Many famous people were absent-minded,” the doctor told me. “Thomas Edison(愛迪生)was standing in line(排隊) one day to pay his taxes(稅). When he arrived at the window, he found that he had forgotten his own name. He had to ask the man who was behind him to tell him who he was.”
I felt much better and got up to leave. “Thank you, doctor,” I said. “How much do I have to pay you?”
“Ten dollars for the check-up(檢查),” the doctor said.
“But doctor, I did not have a check-up!”
For a moment the doctor looked puzzled. Then he said, “Oh, yes, it was the patient before you who had a check-up. How absent-minded I am!”
