When I returned, I nearly 41 her down. “Get out of the way!” I shouted with a frown(皱眉).She stepped away silently, with her little heart 42 . I didn’t realize how harshly(严厉地)I had spoken.

And she whispered, “Mommy, that’s okay—I 51 love you anyway.” I hugged her and said, “ I love you, too and I LOVE the flowers.”
Do you know that: If you die tomorrow, the company you are working for could easily 52 you in a 53 of days. But the family you leave behind will feel the loss for the rest of their lives. And come to think of it, we 54 ourselves more into our work than into our families—a(n) 55 investment indeed.

A
At the end of my presidency, I picked a few special places to say goodbye and thanks to the American people. One of them was Chicago, where Hillary was born; where I all but gained the Democratic nomination(提名) on St. Patrick's Day 1992; where many of my most ardent热心的) supporters live and many of my most important domestic measures in crime, welfare, and education were proved effective; and, of course, where my parents went to live after the war. I used to joke with Hillary that if my father hadn't lost his life on that rainy Missouri highway, I would have grown up a few miles from her and we probably never would have met. My last event was in the Palmer House Hotel, scene of the only photo I have of my parents together, taken just before Mother came back to Hope in 1946. After the speech and the good-byes, I went into a small room where I met a woman, Mary Etta Rees, and her two daughters. She told me she had grown up and gone to high school with my mother, then had gone north to Indiana to work in a war industry, married, stayed, and raised her children. Then she gave me another precious gift: the letter my twenty-three-year-old mother had written on her birthday to her friend, three weeks after my father's death, more than fifty-four years earlier. It was vintage Mother. In her beautiful hand, she wrote of her heartbreak and her determination to carry on: "It seemed almost unbelievable at the time but you see I am six months pregnant and the thought of our baby keeps me going and really gives me the whole world before me."

Have you ever heard the old saying ,"Never judge a book by its cover" ?This is a good rule to follow when trying to judge the intelligence(智力 ) of others .Some people have minds that shine only in certain situations .A young people with an unusual gift in writing may find himself speechless in the presence of a pretty girl when he speaks .He may not be able to find the right words . But don't make mistake of thinking him stupid , with a pen and a paper, he can express himself better than anybody .
Other people may fool you into overestimating (过高估计) their intelligence by putting up a good front. A student who listens attentively and takes notes in class is sure to make a favorable impression on his teachers .But when it comes to exams, he may score near the bottom of the class .
It all boils down to this : you can't judge someone by appearance . The only way to determine (测定) a person's intelligence is to get to know him. Then you can see how he reacts (反应) to different situations. The more situation you see ,the better your judgment is likely to be. So take your time. Don't judge a book by its cover .

Internet shopping is a new way of shopping. You no longer need to walk round hundreds of shops looking for the items you need. Nowadays, you can shop for just about anything from your armchair. All you need is a computer which is linked to the Internet. Shopping on the Internet is becoming increasingly popular. In the United States, 50 percent of families have computers at home and almost one third are linked to the Internet. Americans spent over US $ 2.5 billion on Internet shopping in 1998. This figure is expected to reach USS 11 billion by the year 2004.
People can shop for a variety of products on the Internet. Physical products include items such as books, CDs, clothes and food. These types of products are the most common purchases (购入品) through the Internet. You can also buy information products such as on-line news or magazine stories, or you can download computer software through the Internet. Services such as booking airline tickets, reserving (预定) hotels or renting cars are also available (可得到的) on the Internet. You can also go shopping on the Internet for entertainment services and take part in on-line games or e-mail "chats".
Internet shopping offers a number of benefits (好处) for the shopper. The most important advantage is convenience. You can shop when you like as the on-line shops are open 24 hours a day, and you do not have to queue with other shoppers at the check-out counters. Secondly, it is easy to find what you are looking for on the Internet. Even out-of-print books may be ordered on line. Finally, it is often cheaper to buy goods through the Internet, and you can tell the shop exactly what you want.
The main disadvantage of Internet shopping is that you cannot actually see the products you are buying or check their quality. Also, many people enjoy shopping in the city and miss the opportunity to talk to friends. Some people are worried about paying for goods using credit cards, so Internet companies are now finding ways to make on-line payment safe.
Internet shopping is sure to become more and more popular in the years ahead. It promises
to change the way we buy all kinds of things -- from tonight's dinner to a new car.
64. About ______ of American families have computers connected to the Internet.
A. 50% B. 33% C. 16% D. 66%

B. the different ways of Internet shopping
C. how you can buy different products on the Internet
D. what variety of goods you can buy on the Internet
67. We can learn from the passage that ______.

D
What should you think about in trying to find your career? You are probably better at some school subjects than others. These may show strengths that you can use in your work. A boy who is good at mathematics can use that in an engineering career. A girl who spells well and likes English may be good at office work .So it is important to do well at school. On the other hand, you may not have any specially strong or weak subjects but your records show a general satisfactory standard. Although not all subjects can be used directly in a job, they may have indirect value. Knowledge of history is not required for most jobs but if history is one of your good subjects you will have learned to remember facts and details. This is an ability that can be useful in many jobs.
Your school may have taught you skills, such as typing or technical drawing, which you can use in your work. You may be good at metal work or cookery(烹饪术)and look for a job where you can improve these skills.
If you have had a part-time job on Saturdays or in the summer, think what you gained from it. If nothing else, you may have learned how to get to work on time, to follow instructions and to get on with older workers. You may have learned to give correct change in a shop, for example. Just as important, you may become interested in a particular industry or career you see from the inside in a part-time job.
Facing your weak points is also part of knowing yourself. You may be all thumbs when you handle(运用)tools; perhaps you are a poor speller or cannot add up a column of figures. It is bitter to face any weaknesses than to pretend they do not exist. Your school record, for instance, may not be too good, yet it is an important part of your background. You should not be apologetic about it but instead recognize that you will have a chance of a fresh start at work..
68. Which of the following best sums up the first paragraph?
A. The importance of doing well at school.
B. Using school performance to help to choose a career.
C. The importance of being good at all subjects.
D. The indirect value of schoolwork.
69. The writer thinks that for a student to have a part-time job is probably ____.
A. a waste of time that could have been spent on study
B. useful for his future work
C. a good way to earn extra money
D. a good way to find out his weak points
70. According to the passage, if a student’s school record is not good, he ____.
A. will be a complete failure in his future work
B. will not be able to find a suitable job
C. will regret not having worked harder at school
D. may do well in his future work
71. Which subject is supposed to have no direct value for job hunting?
A. Mathematics. B. English. C. Technical drawing. D. History.
72. The whole passage centers on ____.
A. choosing a career according to what one is skilled in

C. finding one’s strong and weak points
D. developing one’s abilities useful in school work

Bill and Nancie Carmichael are the former publishers of Virtue and Christian Parenting Today Magazines. In addition, they are the authors of twelve books. Major publishers such as Tyndale, Thomas Nelson, Harvest House, Baker, and Crossway have published their work. They are also popular seminar (学术讲座) and conference speakers.
Most unpublished writers do not get the kind of consideration they deserve from book publishers, simply because most publishers are flooded with thousands of book proposals and unsolicited manuscripts(稿件). Because of the significant reward of the industry, the publishers often play it safe and like to go with proven writers. They simply don't want to (or can't) take the risk on new writers.
As a result, some new authors get caught up in "vanity(虚荣)publishing." Such companies may help you "print" your book, but offer nothing in the way of editing, creative design, or marketing and distribution. When an author decides to self-publish in this manner, they often come away with a poorly designed, poorly edited book with no distribution(发行)plan. They are left to sell what they can to their own sphere of influence and the rest of their books gather dust in their garage.
73.Publishers do not like to publish new writers’ books mainly because________.
A. there are thousands of books to be published
B. they doubt whether they can earn money
C. it is dangerous to have new writers’ work published
D. new writers do not have enough money to have their books published
74. If new writers have their books published,_______.
A. the publishing company will help them with distribution
B. the publishing company will offer nothing but the help of editing and designing
C. they will sell their books themselves
D. they will keep their books in their garage
75. From the passage we can infer that _______.
A. publishers are willing to publish the work of writers proven successful
B. major publishers such as Tyndale are very famous speakers
C. new writers often sell their books in their garage
D. All books published are sold by publishing companies

Dear editor,
I’m writing to tell you about a discussion we have had about whether students of Senior Three should take physical exercise or not. There are two different opinions about it.
55% of the students think they should take physical exercise everyday, such as doing morning exercises, playing ping-pang and basketball, but should not take too much time. In their opinion, exercise builds one’s body and reduce the chance of falling ill. What’s more, sports let their brains relax so that they can improve the efficiency of revision.
On the other hand, 45% of them believe it is a waste of time to take exercise. Also, it’s very tiring. After having sports, they think, they are too excited for a long time to fix their attention on their lessons. Sometimes it is likely to get hurt in sports.
Best wishes.
Yours
