It was one of the hottest days of the dry season. We had not seen rain for almost a month. The crops were dying. Cows had stopped giving milk. If we didn’t see some rain soon,we would lose everything.
I was in the kitchen making lunch for my husband and his brothers when I saw my six-year-old son,Billy,walking towards the woods. He was obviously walking with great effort. Minutes after he disappeared into the woods,he came running out again,towards the house.
Moments later,however,he was once again walking towards the woods. This activity went on for over an hour： walking cautiously to the woods,then running back to the house. Finally,my curiosity got the best of me. I went out of the house and followed him on his journey.
He was cupping both hands in front of him as he walked,being very careful not to spill the water he held in them. Branches and thorns (荊棘) slapped his little face but he did not try to avoid them. As I leaned in to spy on him,I saw the most amazing site.
Several large deer appeared threatening in front of him. But Billy walked right up to them. I almost screamed for him to get away. And I saw a baby deer lying on the ground,obviously suffering from the heavy loss of water,lifting its head with great effort to drink the water cupped in my beautiful boy’s hands.
I stood on the edge of the woods watching the most beautiful heart working so hard to save a life. As my tears began to hit the ground,they were suddenly joined by other drops...and more drops... and more. I looked up at the sky. It was as if God,himself,was weeping with pride.

Here are tips for a successful speech from a professional speechwriter：
No speech should last more than 20 minutes.1. The Sermon on the Mount,a collection of sayings and teachings of Jesus,for example,lasted hardly more than three minutes.
Focus on one topic. We’re human beings and tend to have lots of thoughts,opinions and ideas. You have to make the proper selection. 2. Include and expand only those that explain and support your viewpoint (觀點(diǎn)).
3. It’s important to remember that your words must be hearable and understandable.
Humour is vital.4. Ronald Reagan always wanted to joke at the start of a speech because he needed the quick victory of laughter. It helped him relax. It also helped the audience relax.
Don’t forget to say thanks. You should always,at the beginning of the speech,thank the person who invited you and introduced you.5. While you’re doing it,the audience gets a chance to daydream and settle down. They’re going to daydream at some point anyway,and it may as well be before you get to the heart of your remarks.
A. Choose your words carefully.
B. And saying thanks at the beginning has a practical purpose.
C. First you have to work out what you’re going to say.
D. Every speech needs it,and you need it,too,probably at the beginning.
E. Stick to one subject -the future of the soccer club,for example.
F. This process takes time,so start once you begin thinking about the speech.
G. The more important the message is,the less time it requires to say it.

Any passenger on the subway who caught a glimpse of me may have already thought that I was strange. In particular this gentleman sitting opposite me was staring at me,at the cheese bun on the floor in front of me,and then back at me. “Next stop,St Patrick Station. ” My stop was quickly coming up. I had minutes to either take the cheese bun,which nobody else was claiming (as a passenger probably dropped it by mistake and got off at a previous stop) ，or leave it there and hope that it didn’t go to waste.
In those few minutes I felt my pride getting in the way. “What would other people on this subway think of me if I took the cheese bun? Would they think that I was poor and hungry? Would they think that I’m stealing?”
The ignorant thing to do was say “yes” to any of those self-imposed (自我強(qiáng)加的) questions,which would only justify my ego. But then I’d get off the subway,walk a block up the street to my office,get settled at my desk,and despite feeling comfortable,warm,and being well fed myself for the whole day,there would be a weight of guilt and regret weighing on my consciousness.
My thoughts were pushing me towards pride and ignorance when the truth was evident：this missing cheese bun is a gift for a homeless person who is hungry and cold. For me it is a gift to overcome a little bit of ego and pass along so much kindness. It was clear that the homeless person who would receive this cheese bun needed it just as much as I did.
Just as the doors opened at my stop,I grabbed the cheese bun and exited the subway. It felt awesome and I didn’t care if people were looking or what they thought. Instead of going directly to my office as usual,I walked a few more blocks up to Queen’s Park where I have seen a homeless man sitting outside many times on my walk from the gym to my office. I always wanted to give him something. There he was this morning,wrapped in a sleeping bag.
( ) 1. As the author was getting off the subway,he
A. felt worried about where to go because he was a stranger in this city

D. took a glimpse of all the passengers,especially the gentleman sitting opposite him

A. The author’s concern about others.

A. he thought it a waste to leave the cheese bun there
B. it reminded him of a homeless man he had met recently

If you’ve ever seen the way dog people interacted with their pets,it comes as no surprise that there’s some germ-exchanging going on there. A new study indicates that dog ownership specifically may be one of the biggest single contributors to what kinds of microbes living on your skin.
A team of researchers led by Se Jin Song at the University of Colorado,Boulder,took swabs (化驗(yàn)標(biāo)本) of the tongues,palms,forehead and faeces (排泄物) of members of 60 family households. Some of the families had children or household pets and some did not;dogs were the only pets swabbed.
Researchers then analyzed the DNA of the bacteria they found to determine how diverse the bacteria populations were. Not surprisingly,family members who lived together had more bacteria in common than members of separate households. Bacteria on the skin were especially similar within households,probably because we pass microbes through the air,through direct contact,and via the surfaces we touch.
The most surprising finding,however,was the large bacteria contribution Fidonad made. The skin bacteria of dog owners from different households were almost as similar as if they’d cohabited without a dog. Put another way,you and a friend across town who both own dogs share a skin ecosystem as alike as a married couple does.
The reason for this appears to be that dogs harbor some kinds of bacteria that are rare on human skin. One in particular,a family of bacteria called Methylophilaceae,was abundant in the mouths of dogs sampled as well as the skin of their owners—indicating “a common occurrence of oral-skin transfer between dogs and their owners”，according to the results published in the journal Life.
( ) 5. From the study,we know that .
A. some kinds of bacteria live on our skin because of dog ownership
B. nobody finds it surprising that there should be some germ-exchanging between dogs and their owners
C. only dog ownership contributes to the sort of microbes that live on our skin
D. there would most probably be no microbe on our skin if it were not for dogs
( ) 6. The research took the following factors into consideration EXCEPT .
A. varieties of swabs from members of 60 family households
B. families with children or household pets
C. families without children or household pets
D. dogs being the only pets in the households
( ) 7. Why did researchers analyze the DNA of the bacte ria they found?
A. To search for the way microbes pass from one member of a family to another.
B. To find out the exact number of the bacteria living on human skin and dog skin.
C. To decide whether the bacteria were of the same kind or not.
D. To prove that family members who lived together had the same bacteria as the members of separate households.
( ) 8. What does this passage mainly tell us?
A. It is unsafe to keep dogs because of microbes.
B. How many kinds of bacteria live on people’s skin because of dog ownership.
C. Dog ownership affects the kinds of microbes living on people’s skin.
D. What are the similarities between people who keep dogs and those who don’t.

When my brother and I were young,my mum would take us on Transportation Days.
It goes like this： You can’t take any means of transportation more than once. We would start from home,walking two blocks to the rail station. We’d take the train into the city centre,then a bus,switching to the tram,then maybe a taxi. We always considered taking a horse carriage in the historic district,but we didn’t like the way the horses were treated,so we never did. At the end of the day,we took the subway to our closest station,where Mum’s friend was waiting to give us a ride home—our first car ride of the day.
The good thing about Transportation Days is not only that Mum taught us how to get around. She was born to be multimodal (多方式的).She understood that depending on cars only was a failure of imagination and,above all,a failure of confidence—the product of a childhood not spent exploring subway tunnels.
Once you learn the route map and step with certainty over the gap between the train and the platform,nothing is frightening anymore. New cities are just light-rail lines to be explored. And your personal car,if you have one,becomes just one more tool in the toolbox—and often an inadequate one,limiting both your mobility and your wallet.
On Transportation Days,we might stop for lunch on Chestnut Street or buy a new book or toy,but the transportation was the point. First,it was exciting enough to watch the world speed by from the train window. As I got older,my mum helped me unlock the mysteries that would otherwise have paralyzed my first attempts to do it myself： How do I know where to get off? How do I know how much it costs? How do I know when I need tickets,and where to get them? What track,what line,which direction,where’s the stop,and will I get wet when we go under the river?
I’m writing this right now on an airplane,a means we didn’t try on our Transportation Days and,we now know,the dirtiest and most polluting of them all. My flight routed me through Philadelphia. My multimodal mum met me for dinner in the airport. She took a train to meet me.
( ) 1. Which was forbidden by Mum on Transportation Days?
A. Having a car ride.
B. Taking the train twice.
C. Buying more than one toy.
D. Touring the historic district.
( ) 2. According to the writer,what was the greatest benefit of her Transportation Days?
A. Building confidence in herself.
B. Reducing her use of private cars.
C. Developing her sense of direction.
D. Giving her knowledge about vehicles.
( ) 3. The underlined word “paralyzed”(in Para. 5) is closest in meaning to
A. displayed B. justified
C. ignored D. ruined
( ) 4. Which means of transportation does the writer probably disapprove of?
A. Airplane.
B. Subway.
C. Tram.
D. Car.

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源： 題型：
I was in my third year of teaching creative writing at a high school in New York,when one of my students,15-year-old Mikey,gave me a note from his mother. It explained his absence from class the day before.
I had seen Mikey himself writing the note at his desk. Most parental-excuse notes I received were forged by my students. If I were to deal with them,I’d be busy 24 hours a day.
The forged excuse notes made a large pile,with writing that ranged from imaginative to crazy. The writers of those notes didn’t realize that honest excuse notes were usually dull, “Peter was late because the alarm clock didn’t go off. ”
Isn’t it remarkable,I thought,how the students complained and said it was hard putting 200 words together on any subject? But when they produced excuse notes,they were brilliant.
So one day I typed out a dozen excuse notes and gave them to my classes. I said, “They’re supposed to be written by parents,but actually they are not. True,Mikey?” The students looked at me nervously.
“Now,this will be the first class to study the art of the excuse note—the first class,ever,to practice writing them.
You’re so lucky to have a teacher like me who has taken your best writing and turned it into a subject worthy of study. ”
Everyone smiled as I went on, “You used your imaginations. So try more now. Today I’d like you to write ‘An Excuse Note from Adam to God’ or ‘An Excuse Note from Eve to God?. ” Heads went down. Pens raced across paper. For the first time ever I saw students so careful in their writing that they had to be asked to go to lunch by their friends. The next day everyone had excuse notes. Heated discussions followed. The headmaster entered the classroom and walked up and down,looking at papers,and then said, “I’d like you to see me in my office. ”
When I stepped into his office,he came to shake my hand and said, “I just want to tell you that that lesson,that task,whatever the hell you were doing,was great. Those kids were writing on the college level. Thank you. ”
( ) 5. What did the author do with the students found dishonest?
A. He reported them to the headmaster.
B. He lectured them hard on honesty.
C. He had them take notes before lunch.
D. He helped improve their writing skills.
( ) 6. The author had the students practice writing ex cuse notes so that the students could learn
A. the importance of being honest
B. how to write excuse notes skillfully
C. the pleasure of creative writing
D. how to be creative in writing
( ) 7. The underlined word “forged” in the second para graph means "________"
A. former B. copied
C. false D. honest
( ) 8. What did the headmaster think of the author’s way of teaching?
A. Effective.
B. Difficult.
C. Misleading.
D. Reasonable.
