When Mike told me he was leaving I felt like a vase which had just broken. There were pieces of me all over the tidy floor. He kept talking, telling me why he was leaving,   31  it was for the best, I could do better, it was his   32  and not mine. I had heard it before many times and yet somehow was still hurt; perhaps one cannot   33  such pain.
He left and I tried to   34  my life. I filled the kettle (水壺), put it on to boil, took out my old red cup and   35  the coffee powder falling into the bone china. Somehow when the kettle piped its finishing warning, I   36  not to hear it. That’s what Mike’s leaving had been like, sudden and with a(n)   37  end. I would rather just   38  in uncertainty than have things finished. I laughed at myself. Just about a cup of coffee, I must be getting   39 .
And yet it was a young woman who   40  back at me from the mirror, a young woman full of   41  and hope, a young woman with bright eyes just waiting to see the world.  42 , there are more important things. More important than   43 , I insist to myself firmly. The lid goes back on the coffee just like closing on the whole Mike experience.
He didn’t   44  my dreams as I feared that night.   45 , I am flying far across fields and woods,   46  on those below me. I fly free until I meet another bird who flies with me in perfect harmony. I realize with some   47  that there is a bird out there for me, there is another person, not necessarily a lover perhaps just a   48 , but there is someone out there who is my soul mate. I think about being a broken   49  again and realize that I have gathered myself back together, what Mike has is   50  a little part of my time in earth, a little understanding of my physical being. He has merely, a little piece of me.

Steve Fossett did not really look like an adventurer, but he reached some of the most difficult goals in sailing and flying.
Fossett was most proud of being the first person to fly around the world alone in a hot-air balloon. To make a trip around the world alone, it was necessary to have an improved autopilot (自動(dòng)駕駛儀) device. Fossett had one of his team members develop a more advanced balloon autopilot that would allow him to sleep and do other tasks while flying safely.
Steve Fossett attempted the hot-air balloon trip around the world six times. This was not easy to do. He flew in the balloon’s capsule (密封艙) that was too small to stand upright. During his fourth attempt in 1998, he was almost killed during a storm off the coast of Australia. He fell 9,000 meters into the Coral Sea with his balloon’s capsule on fire. He was later rescued at sea.
Fossett successfully made the trip in 2002. The trip started and ended in Australia. He traveled more than 33,000 kilometers for more than 14 days. On this flight, Fossett set other records including a speed record of 322 kilometers per hour. One main problem with earlier balloon flights was the threat of dangerous storms. A team of weather experts e-mailed and talked to Fossett by a satellite telephone to help him avoid such weather.   
Steve Fossett’s hot-air balloon is now at the Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum in Washington, D.C.  It is there as an example for other people to try and succeed in doing something important to them.
小題1:What did Steve Fossett specially prepare for the trip around the world?
A．He made the balloon’s capsule bigger.
B．He had an autopilot impvoved.
C．He formed a team to fly with him.
D．He improved the balloon’s engine.
小題2:Steve Fossett solved the problem of bad weather on his trip by ______.
A．communicating with experts
B．using his rich experience
C．inventing a satellite phone
D．consulting other adventurers
小題3:We can learn from the text that Steve Fossett was ______.
A．patient and carefulB．modest and easy-going
C．brave and determinedD．energetic and kind-hearted
小題4:What can we learn about Steve’s flight in 2002?
A．He was rescued during the trip.
B．He lost his way over the sea.
C．It lasted over three weeks.
D．He set a speed record of balloon flight.

I suppose that having been brought up in the countryside and close  to animals，it wasn’t remarkable(不平常的)when I decided  to become a vet(獸醫(yī))．Luckily I was also good at all the necessary science subjects. So after the college entrance examination I found myself at a veterinary college，training to look after animals in all kinds of situations. I hoped that I would be able to work in the research field so that I could find cures for animal diseases.
Much to my surprise，I found public health care was a very important aspect of my course. This is an area of animal medicine where a vet’s work has many things in common with the work of a doctor of human diseases. I particularly liked it because I recognized that the study of animal diseases can help human medicine. As we know，many infectious diseases come from animals—including SARS and bird flu.
Some of the infections have only been understood after carefully analytical work in labs by animal doctors. They helped identify the animal source for diseases such as SARS. They were also the first to identify various kinds of viruses. Sometimes vets are also able to suggest a cure for human illnesses. When I found this out I was determined to make public health medicine my chosen career.
After graduation，I applied for a job in public health. Soon I found myself concerned with the problem of bird flu. This is  an illness that attacks birds，but humans can catch the disease  if they are in close contact with infected birds. Though the job  is dangerous，it makes me proud that vets and other animal  disease researchers are in the front line helping to fight these  unknown human diseases

小題1:The writer wanted to become a vet mainly because______.
A．he did well in all necessary subjects
B．he wanted to help animals
C．he was close to animals in his early life
D．he wanted to find cures for human diseases
小題2:What made the writer particularly like the course of public health care was that________.
A．it was both important and interesting
B．it could help him connect many human diseases with animals
C．it made a vet’s work very much like a doctor’s
D．it could help human medicine by studying animal diseases
小題3:What can be followed if this passage continues?
A．The writer’s happy family life.
B．How the writer did research work in studying bird flu.
C．How the writer dealt with the relationship with other workmates.
D．What difficulty the writer met in the research work.
小題4:Which of the following is implied in the passage?
A．Animals with infectious diseases should be killed.
B．Keeping animals is dangerous to humans.
C．Dangerous as a vet’s job is，it is significant to the human race.
D．Animal researchers work in the same way as human doctors.
小題5:Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A．Being a vet is helpful to both animals and humans.
B．Vets can cure both animals and humans.
C．Vets helped identify animal resources for SARS.
D．Both SARS and bird flu are infectious diseases coming from animals.

I want to let you know about an event that changed my life many years ago. We were living in College Station, Texas and my wife and I were on our way home from Houston, Texas one Sunday morning. We decided to stop at a local gas station to get something to eat since we had enough time.
When we finished, we got back into our car and before I started it, we noticed a homeless man standing in front of the building. His clothes were worn and it looked as if he didn’t have any money. It was cold and I was sure he wanted something to drink. However, it was not this that moved(感動(dòng)) me.
　　A dog was also walking up to the front of the building. Being a dog lover, I noticed that the dog was a mother and that she had just had some puppies(小狗). She was hungry and weak and I felt so bad for her. I knew if she didn’t eat soon, she and her puppies would not live on.
　　People walking by didn’t even notice her. She might not have been as pretty and clean as most, but she still deserved(值得) better. But we still did not do anything, someone else did. The homeless man, who I thought could not afford anything to eat, went back into a store and bought dog food with all the money he had.

The clock struck eleven at night. The whole house was quiet. Everyone was in bed except me. Under the strong light, I looked sadly before me at a huge pile of that troublesome stuff they call “books”.
I was going to have my examination the next day. “When can I go to bed?” I asked myself. I didn’t answer. In fact I dared not.
The clock struck twelve.” Oh, !” I cried. “Ten more books to read before I can go to bed!” We pupils are the most wretched creatures in the world. Dad does not agree with me on this. He did not have to work so hard when he was a boy.
The clock struck one. I was quite desperate(絕望的) now. I forgot all I had learned. I was too tired to go on. I did the only thing I could. I prayed, “Oh, God, please help me pass the exam tomorrow. I do promise to work hard afterwards, Amen.” My eyes were so heavy that I could hardly open them. A few minutes later, with my head on the desk, I fell asleep.
