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.

When you’re lying on the white sands of the Mexican Rivera, the stresses (壓力) of the world seem a million miles away. Hey, stop! This is no vacation—you have to finish something.
Here lies the problem for travel writer and food critic (評(píng)論家) Edie Jarolim. “I always loved traveling and always liked to eat, but it never occurred to me that I could make money doing both of those things,” Jarolim said. Now you can read her travel advice everywhere--- in Arts and Antiques, in Brides, or in one of her three books, The Complete Idiot Travel Guide to Mexican Beach Resorts.
Her job in travel writing began some eight years ago. After getting a PhD in English in Canada, she took a test for Frommer’s travel guides, passed it, and got the job. After working at Frommer’s, Jarolim worked for a while at Rough Guides in London, then Fodor’s where she fell so in love with a description of the Southwest of the U.S. that she moved there.
Now as a travel writer, she spends one-third of her year on the road. The rest of the time is spent completing her tasks and writing reviews of restaurants at home in Tucson, Arizona.
As adventurous as the job sounds, the hard part is fact-checking all the information. Sure, it’s great to write about a tourist attraction, but you’d better get the local museum hours correct or you could really ruin someone’s vacation.
小題1:What is most difficult for Jarolim?
A.Working in different places to collect information.
B.Checking all the facts to be written in the guides.
C.Finishing her work as soon as possible.
D.Passing a test to write travel guides.
小題2:What do we know about Jarolim from the text?
A.She is successful in her job.
B.She finds her life full of stresses.
C.She spends half of her time traveling.
D.She is especially interested in museums.
小題3:What would be the best title for the text?
A.Adventures in Travel WritingB.Working as a Food Critic
C.Travel Guides on the MarketD.Vacationing for a Living

Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland is one of the most loved children’s books of all time, and many adults enjoy it as well. It tells the story of a young girl named Alice, who follows a rabbit entering a magical world called Wonderland. She has many experiences which seem to change the rules of reasoning or common sense. The popularity of the book comes from its imagination, interesting story, and art work.
The writer of the book is Lewis Carroll. In fact, Lewis Carroll was not the writer’s real name. His real name was Charles Dodgson. One day, he took a boat ride down the Thames River to have a picnic with three little girls who were friends of the family. To keep them entertained on the ride, he told them a story in which Alice, the middle child, was the main character. They enjoyed the story very much.
Charles later wrote the story down under the name Alice’s Adventures Under Ground and gave it to Alice as a Christmas present. Later, he gave a copy to his friend George MacDonald. George read it to his children and they loved it. George suggested to Charles that he make a book from his story. Charles then wrote more parts to the story until it was around 35,000 words. It was first printed in 1866, with art work by John Tenniel, under the name Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. The book was an immediate success. One of its first fans was Queen Victoria. She immediately requested a collection of all of Lewis Carroll’s works. She was surprised to find that they included many works on math. In fact, Charles Dodgson was a highly respected mathematician. This can be seen in many puzzles and plays on reasoning that appear in his books and poems.
Since the story was first printed, it has kept selling up to the present day. It has been translated into over fifty languages and has had several movies based on it.
小題1:The passage is mainly about _________.
A.Charles’ family life
B.the birth of a book and its lasting influences
C.a(chǎn) magical world called Wonderland
D.a(chǎn) girl’s adventurous experiences
小題2:Who first had the idea of making a book from the story “Alice Adventures Under Ground”?

Buster Brown was a thief and a good one too,he thought. He’d never been caught by the police because he never took chances.He was always prepared for any unforeseen event or emergency.
Confidently,he stood outside the house of his intended victim(受害者)and read the sign on the front gate of the house.“Don't worry about the dog—be aware of the owner!” it said.Buster smiled and found his way in.
The house looked quite normal outside,but inside it was very exotic with fascinating objects on display.As he began putting them into his bag,a dog came into the room.It stopped when it saw Buster,then wagged its tail madly and went over to him,licking his outstretched hand.  "Good boy,” Buster whispered. “What a great guard dog you are—trying to lick me to death.” Satisfied he'd made friends with the dog,Bluster began to wander round the house,choosing items to put in his bag.His skilled eye picked out only the best antiques(古董):a pair of silver candleholders,a silver tea-and-coffee service,etc..His new friend,the dog,sat and watched,as if wondering what was happening.
“Well,boy,” Buster whispered,finally.“That might do.Any more and I won't be able to carry it!” He swung the heavy bag onto his shoulders, just as the lights came on, nearly blinding him. He shielded his eyes with his hand.
"You're a very silly person," the figure in the doorway said, his voice dry and dust. As the man came closer, Buster could see he was well dressed. His face seemed familiar, but Buster couldn't quite place where he had seen him before.
"You should have taken more notice of the sign outside," the man rasped. "I knew about this attempted robbery last week and I also know you will end up behind bars for 20 years. Fancy trying to rob the house of the world's greatest fortune-teller!"
小題1:Why was Buster so confident?
A.He was not afraid of dogs.
B.He knew the owner of the house lived alone.
C.The house had no security alarm.
D.He had never been caught by the police.
小題2:Which of the definitions is closest in meaning to the word "exotic" in the third paragraph?
