I was busy preparing the traditional Thanksgiving turkey when the doorbell rang. I opened the front door and saw two small children in rags huddling together on the top step. “Any old papers, lady?” asked one of them. I was busy. I wanted to say “no” until I looked down at their feet. They were wearing thin little sandals （凉鞋）, wet with heavy snow. “Come in and Ill make you a cup of hot cocoa.” They walked over and sat down at the table. Their wet sandals left marks upon the floor. I saved them cocoa and bread to fight against the cold outside. Then I went back to the kitchen and started cooking. The silence in the front room struck me. I looked in. The girl held the empty cup in her hands, looking at it. The boy asked in a flat voice, “Lady, are you rich?” “Am I rich? Pity, no!” I looked at my worn-out slipcovers （椅套）. The girl put her cup back in its saucer （茶碟）carefully and said, “Your cups match your saucers.” They left after that, holding their papers against the wind. They had reminded me that I had so much for which to be grateful. Plain blue china cups and saucers were only worth five pence. But they matched. I tasted the potatoes and stirred the meat soup. Potatoes and brown meat soup, a roof over our heads, my man with a regular job, these matched, too. I moved the chairs back from the fire and cleaned the living room. The muddy marks of little sandals were still wet upon my floor. Let them be for a while, I thought, just in case I should begin to forget how rich I am. 46. The writer let the two children come in and served them well because _. A. she wanted to sell old papers to themB. she wanted to give them some presentsC. she showed great pity and care on themD. she wanted to show her thanks to them47. The writer left the muddy marks of little sandals on the floor for a while to _. A. show that she was a kind-hearted ladyB. remind her she shouldnt forget how rich she was C. leave room for readers to think about what being rich isD. call up her memories of the good old days48. It can be inferred from the text that whether you are rich depends on _. A. how much money you have madeB. what attitude you have had toward lifeC. the way you help othersD. your social relationship BWith the development of society, the choice of food and drinks for children is more diversified than ever before. However, every coin has two sides. Many facts suggest that children are overweight and the situation is getting worse, according to the statistics. I feel there are a number of reasons for this.Some people blame the fact that we are surrounded by shops selling unhealthy, fatty foods, such as fried chicken and ice cream, at low prices. This has turned out a whole generation of grown-ups who seldom cook a meal for themselves. If there were fewer of these restaurants then probably children would buy less take-away food.There is another argument that blames parents for allowing their children to become overweight. I agree to this, because good eating habits begin early in life, long before children start to visit fast food shops. If children are given fried chicken and chocolate rather than healthy food, or are always allowed to choose what they eat, they will go for sweet and salty foods every time, and this will carry on throughout their lives.There is a third reason for this situation. Children these days take very little exercise. They do not walk to school. When they get home, they sit in front of the television or their computers. Not only is this an unhealthy pastime（消遣）, it also gives them time to eat more unhealthy food. What they need is to go outside and play active games or sports.The above are the main reasons for this problem, and therefore we have to encourage young people to be more active, as well as guiding them away from fast food shops and bad eating habits.49. What is suggested by the author to deal with “overweight”?A. Blaming the shops selling unhealthy and fatty foods.B. Asking young children to walk to school every day.C. Living an active life and removing bad eating habits.D. Not watching TV or playing computer games after school.50. Which of the following shows the structure of the whole text?51. The author writes the passage to _A. show people a social problem B. provide facts for governmentC. advise solutions to a problem D. compare opinions with people52. The underlined word “diversified” in the first paragraph most probably means _.A. various B. difficult C. expensive D. availableCLast week I talked with some of my students about what they wanted to do after they graduated, and what kind of job prospects they thought they had. Given that I teach students who are training to be doctors, I was surprised to find that most thought that they would not be able to get the jobs they wanted without “outside help”. “What kind of help is that?” I asked, expecting them to tell me that they would need a relative or family friend to help them out. “Surgery(外科手术)”, one replied. I was pretty alarmed by that response. It seems that the graduates of today are increasingly willing to go under the knife to get ahead of others when it comes to getting a job. One girl told me that she was considering surgery to increase her height. “They break your legs, put in special extending screws, and slowly expand the gap between the two ends of the bone as it re-grows, you can get at least 5 cm taller!”At that point, I was shocked. I am short, I cant deny that, but I dont think I would put myself through months of agony(痛苦) just to be a few centimeters taller. I dont even bother to wear shoes with thick soles, as Im not trying to hide the fact that I am just not tall!It seems to me that there is a trend toward wanting “perfection”, and that is an ideal that just does not exist in reality. No one is born perfect, yet magazines, TV shows and movies present images of thin, tall, beautiful people as being the norm. Advertisements for slimming aids, beauty treatments and cosmetic surgery clinics fill the pages of newspapers, further creating an idea that “perfection” is a requirement, and that it must be purchased, no matter what the cost. In my opinion, skills, rather than appearance, should determine how successful a person is in his chosen career. 53. We can know from the passage that the author works as _. A. a doctor B. a model C. a teacher D. a reporter54. Many graduates today turn to cosmetic surgery to _. A. marry a better manwoman B. become a modelC. get an advantage over others in job-hunt D. attract more admirers55. According to the passage, the author believes that _. A. everyone should purchase perfection, whatever the costB. its right for graduates to ask for others to help them out in hunting for jobsC. it is ones appearance instead of skills that really matters in ones careerD. media are to blame for misleading young people in their seeking for surgery56. The best title for the passage should be “_”. A. Young Graduates Have Higher Expectation B. Young Graduates Look to Surgery for Better Jobs C. Young Graduates Opinion About Cosmetic Surgery D. Young Graduates Face a Different Situation in Job-huntDTo Friend or Not To Friend We all love our parents and turn to them when were in need, but would you like them to hear the conversations you have with your friends on the school playground or lunch queue? Social networking sites have become extensions of the school hallways, so would you add your parents as “friends” and allow them to view your online activities and conversations with friends? In the past the generation gap included a technology gap, where children were up to date with latest technology and parents were left behind, content to continue their day
