My husband had just bought a new washing machine for me. I decided to use it the  _36 day, and I washed a lot of things.  Everything worked  37 ,  but I couldn’t find  38  of my husband’s socks though I had looked  39  for it.
The next morning, I got ready for   40  as usual. When the bell rang, the students came in. I greeted them and told them   41  we were going to do   42 .
When I turned  43  to write on the blackboard, the class burst out  44  . They laughed and laughed. They laughed so much, in fact, that I was  45_ the headmaster would be in to see all this.
I asked the class to  46 ,  but the  47  I talked ,  the more they laughed.  So I thought I had better pay   48  attention to them and continue to write on the blackboard. When I did this, they laughed even more.
Before long, the teacher who had the room next to   49   came to see   50  all the laughter was about.  When he came in, he started  51 , too. “ Good Heavens!” I said . “ Will  52  please tell me what is so _ 53  ? ” “ Oh, God, ” said the teacher. “ You have a brown   54  stuck (沾) to the back of your shirt. ” So that’s   55  I found my husband’s missing sock. “ Oh, well, ” I said to the class, “ Let’s just say you have had an unforgettable lesson on static electricity (靜電).”

As a physician who travels quite a lot, I spend a lot of time on planes listening for that dreaded “Is there a doctor on board?” announcement. I’ve been   16  only once — for a woman who had merely fainted. But the   17  made me quite curious about how   18  this kind of thing happens. I wondered what I would do if   19  with a real midair medical emergency — without access   20  a hospital staff and the usual emergency equipment. So   21  the New England Journal of Medicine last week   22  a study about in-flight medical events, I read it   23  interest.
  The study estimated that there are a(n)   24  of 30 in-flight medical emergencies on U.S. flights every day. Most of them are not   25 ; fainting and dizziness are the most frequent complaints.  26  13% of them — roughly four a day — are serious enough to   27  a pilot to change course. The most common of the serious emergencies   28  heart trouble, strokes, and difficulty breathing.
  Let’s face it: plane rides are   29 . For starters, cabin pressures at high altitudes are set at roughly      30  they would be if you lived at 5,000 to 8,000 feet above sea level. Most people can tolerate these pressures pretty   31 , but passengers with heart disease   32  experience chest pains as a result of the reduced amount of oxygen flowing through their blood.   33  common in-flight problem is deep venous thrombosis — the so-called economy class syndrome (綜合癥).   34  happens, don’t panic. Things are getting better on the in-flight-emergency front. Thanks to more recent legislation (立法), flights with at      35  one attendant are starting to install emergency medical kits to treat heart attacks.

You speak, write a letter, and make a telephone call. Your words carry a message. People communicate with words. Do you think you can communicate without words?
A smile on your face shows you are happy or friendly. Tears in your eyes tell others that you are sad. When you raise your hand in class, the teacher knows you want to say something or ask questions.

For example, a sign at the bus stop helps you to know which bus to take. A sign on the wall of your school helps you to find the library. Signs on doors tell you where to go in or out. Have you ever noticed that there are a lot of signs around you and that you receive messages from them all the time? People can communicate in many other ways. An artist can use his drawings to tell about beautiful mountains, about the blue sea and many other things.

While watching the Olympics the other night,I came across an incredible sight.The 1 was swimming and started with only three men.For one reason or another,two of them had a 2 start,so they were disqualified.That would have been difficult enough,not having anyone to  3 against.
I watched the man 4 off the blocks and knew immediately that something was wrong.Now I’m not an expert 5 but I do know a good dive 6 a poor one,and this was not exactly medal 7 .I listened to the crowd begin to 8 this poor man who was clearly having a 9 time.Finally he made his turn to start back.It was 10 .He made a few desperate strokes (劃水) and you could tell he was exhausted.
But in those few 11 strokes,the crowd had changed.No longer were they laughing,but beginning to 12 .Some even began to 13 things like,“Come on,you can do it!”,and he 14 finished his race.The crowd went 15 .Even though he recorded one of the 16 times in Olympic history,this man gave more heart than any of the other 17 .
In a competition where athletes remove their silver medals,feeling they have 18 been cheated out of gold,or when they act so 19 in front of their competitors,it is nice to watch an underdog (失敗者),a man that gave his all—knowing that he had no chance,but competed because of his 20 and the spirit of the games.

The prestigious (久負盛名) Peking University and Tsinghua University held graduation ceremonies on the same day this year. The presidents of the two universities delivered excellent speeches at the ceremonies as they used words, phrases or ways of expression that are very popular on the Internet currently. At the same time, graduation speeches by other university presidents were also under the spotlight for the same reason. Their speeches were warmly welcomed by students as they contained many fashionable words today, such as "floating clouds" ( meaning "too small and of little importance to mention") and "gelivable" (meaning " very helpful") . In the speeches , these university presidents recalled campus life together with students and finally moved all the audiences. They were very different from the usual run of lectures.
Many university presidents have changed their regular manner of addressing graduation ceremonies from an advising and preaching (說教) mode to a more fashionable and funny approach. They try to use those words popular among young people in their speeches.
In the past, university presidents' speeches were criticized for being too standard and lacking sentiment. Now , they quote fashionable words in their addresses, reflecting they are starting to adopt more everyday attitudes to students. The use of these new expressions has triggered a heated discussion. It focuses on the question of whether university presidents should speak in an informal way at graduation ceremonies.
Supporters agree with the new approach. They consider it good to build close ties with students by using the youth's own words. Opponents argue the new ways have no practical value or significance for education but are merely to please those leaving university.
小題1:What would be the best title for this passage?
A.Should University Heads Use Terms of Youth
B.Must University Presidents Learn to Please Students
C.Must University Presidents Meet Students' Needs
D.Should University Heads Use Newly-created Words
小題2:What can we infer from the passage?
A.University presidents consider it good to build close ties with students.
B.More and more students are eager to make speeches in public.
C.The new ways of making speeches are popular with the young.
D.University presidents have special opinions about the world.
小題3:What dose the underlined word "triggered " in Paragraph 3 probably mean ?
A.Break offB.Set offC.Sum upD.Focus on
小題4:Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A.Many people are likely to be influenced by the Internet.
B.The writer thinks it necessary for us to follow the traditional customs.
C.More and more words are changing with the development of technology.
D.People argue about whether to use fashionable words on formal occasions.

Many people say pennies are not worth saving. After all, a penny is only worth a cent. But one unusual penny turned out to be worth a lot more when a coin collector paid $1.7 million for it earlier this month.
The coin is one of a kind. It is the only penny that the Denver mint(鑄幣廠) made out of copper, instead of steel, in 1943. Because it is unique, it is also very valuable. No penny has ever sold for so much money.
The Changing Penny
The Lincoln penny first appeared in 1909. For 34 years, the one-cent coin was made out of copper. Then, in 1943, the penny changed. World War II was going on, and copper was needed for equipment. So for one year, pennies were made out of steel instead. At least most of them were.
Only a few coins were made out of unused copper. There are three main mints, or places where coins are made, in the United States. Of the known copper pennies from 1943, twelve were made in the Philadephia mint, and five were made in the San Francisco mint. Only one was made in the Denver mint.
Nobody knows for sure why a copper penny was made at the Denver mint in 1943, coin dealers Andy Skrabalak told Time for Kids. “There is a rumor that a mint employee made the coin in the middle of the night.”
A Special Set
The coin collector who bought the $1.7 million penny wants to remain unknown. But the reason for the trade is known. He already had two copper pennies from 1943 – one from the San Francisco mint and one from the Philadephia mint. To complete the set, he needed the Denver penny. The three coins will go on display at a coin exhibition in Tampa, Florida.
The collector who sold the penny is also keeping his name a secret. It took four years to convince him to give up the rare coin. Now that he has finally donating all of the money to charity.
小題1:Why is the Lincoln penny worth over one million dollars?
A. Because it has a history of thirty-four years.
B. Because it was made out of a rare material.
C. Because it was made on one night of 1943 by the Denver mint.
D, Because it was the only coin Denver mint made out of copper in 1943.
小題2:Before the Lincoln penny was sold, people thought one-cent coins __________.
A.were worth collecting for selling later
B.were surely valuable if not made out of steel
C.wouldn’t be sold for large amounts of money
D.were only useful for some coin museums
小題3:At least how many copper coins were made in 1943?
A.FiveB.TwelveC.SeventeenD.Eighteen
小題4:What can we learn about the collector who sold the penny?
A.He already had two copper pennies from 1943.
B.He wanted to complete the set of copper pennies.
C.He didn’t want to sell his penny in the beginning.
D.He was a well-known coin dealer in Tampa, Horida.
