A school teacher decided to let her class play a game. The teacher told each child in the class to bring along a plastic bag containing a few    16  . Each tomato will be given a name of a person that the child    17  , so the number of tomatoes that a child will put in the plastic bag will depend on the number of people the child hates.
So when the day came, every    18   brought some tomatoes. Some had two; some three while some up to five tomatoes. The teacher then told the children to    19   with them the tomatoes in the plastic    20   wherever they go.
Days after days passed by, and the children started to complain due to the    21   smell let out by the rotten tomatoes. Besides, those having more tomatoes had to carry    22   bags. After 1 week, the children were relieved because the game had finally ended.
The teacher asked: “How did you    23   while carrying the tomatoes with you for 1     24  ?”
The children let out their frustrations and started    25   of the trouble that they had to go through having to carry the heavy and    26  tomatoes wherever they go.
Then the teacher told them the hidden meaning behind the    27  .
“This is exactly the    28   when you carry your hatred(憎恨) for somebody inside your heart. The unpleasant smell of hatred will pollute your    29   and you will carry it with you wherever you go. If you cannot tolerate the smell of rotten tomatoes for just 1 week, can you imagine what is it like to have the smell of hatred in your heart for your lifetime?”
So    30   others is that best attitude to take!

I worked for a short time as a cashier(出納員) at a restaurant a few months ago. I also helped to clean up the tables when it was very busy. One night, just before  Christmas, I found a large black wallet on the floor near one of the tables. I guessed I should check it to find out who was the owner, but I was very busy at the time. And I imagined that if there was something valuable(有價值的) in the wallet, the   owner would be back. Sure enough, an hour later a man came up to the counter   and asked if anyone had found a wallet. I asked him to describe the lost wallet, and after he described it exactly, I gave him the wallet. He expressed his thanks when I handed it to him. He asked me if I had opened it, and when I told him “no”. At  once he opened it and showed that it had nearly $ 800 in cash(現(xiàn)金). He took out a twenty-dollar bill and handed it to me and I was amazed at this. “A reward(酬勞) for your honesty,” he said and then turned and walked away.
Thinking about it later, I began wondering whether I would have been honest if I had known what was in the wallet! I thought that if I had no way to find the   owner and no one returned to get it, I might keep it. But it also came into my    mind that I actually saved someone’s Christmas plans by finding and returning the wallet. The good feeling it gave me was worth more than anything could buy.
小題1:Which of the following is true?

A．The owner of the wallet found a twenty-dollar bill gone.

B．The writer wasn’t surprised when the man gave her a reward.

C．she didn’t know there was so much money in it

D．a(chǎn)s an honest person, she didn’t care much about money

小題3:Which of the following is NOT true?

A．The writer accepted a reward of $ 20.

B．The writer regretted (后悔) that she had returned the wallet.

C．The writer didn’t return the wallet until the owner came back.

D．The writer fell very happy after she returned the wallet.

Christmas Eve means a warm get-together with friends, a candlelight dinner, or perhaps a celebration at a pub(酒館) for students. But, for Cai Yingjie, the night has a different meaning: helping beggars(乞丐) and the homeless(people without homes).
Cai, who is a student in journalism at Tsinghua, could be found at Beijing’s Wudaokou Light Railway Station that special evening. When she saw an old beggar, she took the cold, rough hands of the woman with her warm, clean hands, and gave   the woman some warm bread and helped her put on a pair of new gloves(手套).
The woman was surprised for a few seconds, then burst into tears, saying “for  the first time I feel respected(尊重)”.
Cai said, “A beggar’s life is very hard. That’s why I want to help them.”
Cai was one of 14 Tsinghua students spending Christmas Eve among the poor. They walked in the cold wind along the streets from 4 to 7 pm on Friday, visiting 15 beggars in Beijing’s Haidian District.
They brought bread and gloves with them, and stopped to greet beggars and offer them some of the warm food. Each beggar greeted them with a look of surprise.
“I know the activity can’t help much, but it’s meant to show our respect and   care for beggars and the homeless who have been neglected for so long,” said Sun,  head of the group. “And Christmas is a good time for that.”
小題1:What does Christmas Eve mean to the 14 Tsinghua students?

A．Taking 15 beggars to Tsinghua.

B．Getting together with friends.

C．Showing care to the beggars and the homeless.

D．Selling bread and gloves to the beggars.

A．The beggar has been waiting for Cai for long.

B．The beggar hasn’t been shown care for so long.

C．The beggar has been respecting Cai for a long time.

D．This is the first time the beggar has seen Tsinghua students.

小題3:What did each beggar feel when they received greetings?

C．Frightened.	D． Proud.

小題4: The word “neglected” in the last passage means _______.

A．protected	B．found
C．taken care of	D．given no enough care

I saw the old man, with his untidy clothes and messy hair, as he dashed between the rows of the department store. He was trying to be ordinary but he was hard not to __21   .
He    22   the saleswoman and with a slight    23 , possibly German, asked where the women’s shoes were sold. “Fourth floor.” She responded in a voice I could hear 10 miles away. “Pardon? Where did you say they were?” he asked again, apparently    24 . Clearly the old man was somewhat    25   “Fourth floor, sir,” the friendly saleswoman replied patiently, this time so   26  that customers turned to see what was causing the   27   .
I continued watching as the man thanked the saleswoman and   28  for what I assumed was the fourth floor. But rather than walk to the    29   or the lift, he dashed behind a shelf, took out a notebook and started writing hurriedly, with an almost mad   30  on his face. Then he went straight up to another saleswoman and asked where the women’s shoes were sold. Again he asked her to   31  the answer and once more he walked away and took down some notes.
He did this three more times before a department store    32 , thinking him mad, removed him from the store. But rather than be   33  , the old man departed with a huge smile on his face. Although the incident was  34  , it was not until a year later, during my first year of university, that I gave it any further   35  . I walked into my language classroom and met my professor. It was that very same man.
