A wise and understanding heart does not repay a hurt with a hurt. In doing 1 , the heart is diminished. Gaps form. Love leaks out. Every pain 2 (give)in return for one received changes the contents of the heart. It is no 3 defined (下定义)by love,wis- dom and understanding. It is redefined by the bearers of hurt and hate, pain and prejudice, meanness and madness, 4 (sorry) and sadness. You give away control of your very own heart. The 5 (hope) of being hurt is cured by overcoming it, not clinging to the hurt and inflicting more of it on the world. When darkness is 6 (add) to darkness, no one can see, no one can love. Everyone loses. Love is not always warm and unclear. 7 it's the honesty we hold on to that persuades us to strike back. Sometimes it's the honor 8 keeps us from exchanging the valuable contents of our heart for the cruel satisfaction. No, the way of love is not always easy, but 9 night falls, dawn is certain. The 10 and honor of a wise and understanding heart, rises with the sun of a new day. |

Compassion is a desire within us to help others. With effort, we can translate compassion into action. An experience last weekend showed me this is true. I work part-time in a supermarket across from a building for the elderly. These old people are our main cus- tomers,and it's not hard to lose patience over their slowness. But last Sunday, one aged gentleman appeared to teach me a valuable les- son. This untidy man walked up to my register (收款机 ) with a box of biscuits. He said he was out of cash (现金), had just moved into his room, and had nothing in his cupboards. He asked if we could let him have the food on trust. He promised to repay me the next day. I couldn't help staring at him. I wondered what kind of person he had been ten or twenty years before, and what he would be like if luck had gone his way. I had a hurt in my heart for this kind of hu- man soul, all alone in the world. I told him that I was sorry, but store rules didn't allow me to do so. I felt stupid and unkind saying this, but I valued my job. Just then, another man, standing behind the first, spoke up. If anything, he looked more pitiable."Charge it to me," was all he said. What I had been feeling was pity. Pity is soft and safe and easy. Compassion, on the other hand, is caring in action. I thanked the second man but told him that was not allowed either. Then I reached into my pocket and paid for the biscuits myself. I reached into my pocket because these two men had reached into my heart and taught me compassion. |

3. The writer acted upon the store rules because____. |
A. he wanted to keep his present job B. he felt no pity for the old gentleman C. he considered the old man dishonest D. he expected someone else to pay for the old man |
4. What does the writer learn from his experience? |
A. Wealth is more important than anything else. B. Helping others is easier said than done. C. Experience is better gained through practice. D. Obeying the rules means more than compassion. |

She was known to millions as the "Queen of Crime" or the " Duchess (女公爵) of death". But surprisingly, she hated violence and blood, and knew nothing of the weapons most often used in murder."I don't think I dare look at a really horrible and damaged body." Agatha Christie once said. But her pen dared travel where her eyes would not. In a 50-year writing career, Christie's murder stories made her the world's best-known mystery writer. She is outsold only by the Bible and Shakespeare. Her works have been turned into films and TV series, and a line of computer games is to be released over the next six years. "My grandmother liked to use new ways to reach people who wanted to enjoy her work," said Christie's grandson, Mathew Pri- chard."Turning her stories into PC games allows us to introduce classic mysteries to new audiences. Born in 1890 in England, Christie was educated at home and began her writing career while working as a nurse during World War I. She went on to produce 79 novels and numerous short sto- ries, dying at the age of 86. "With her knowledge of murder, Christie could have been a teacher at police academies," said one fan. |

Clothes play a critical part in the conclusions we reach by pro- viding clues to who people are, who they are not, and who they would like to be. They tell us a good deal about the wearer's back- ground, personality, status, mood, and social outlook. Since clothes are such an important source of social informa- tion,we can use them to influence people's impression of us. Our appearance assumes particular significance in the initial phases of interaction that is likely to occur. An elderly middle-class man or woman may be alienated (疏远) by a young adult who is dressed in an unconventional manner, regardless of the person's education, background, or interests. People tend to agree on what certain types of clothes mean. Adolescent girls can easily agree on the lifestyles of girls who wear certain outfits (套装), including the number of boyfriends they like- ly have had and whether they smoke or drink. Newscasters, or the announcers who read the news on TV, are considered to be more convincing, honest, and competent when they are dressed conserva- tively. And college students who view themselves as taking an active role in their inter-personal relationships say they are concerned about the costumes they must wear to play these roles successfully. Moreover, many of us can relate instances in which the clothing we wore changed the way we felt about ourselves and how we acted. Perhaps you have used clothing to gain confidence when you waited for a stressful situation, such as a job interview, or a court appearance. In the workplace, men have long had clear precedents (先例) and role models for achieving success. It has been otherwise for women. A good many women in the business world are uncertain aboutthe suitable mixture of" masculine" and"feminine" charac- teristics they should express by their professional clothing. The vari- ety of clothing choices to women has also been greater than that available for men. Male administrators tend to judge women more favorably for managerial positions when the women display less "feminine" grooming (打扮)-shorter hair, moderate use of make- up, and plain tailored clothing. |
1. According to the passage, the way we dress _____. |
A. provides clues for people who are critical of us B. indicates our likes and dislikes in choosing a career C. has a direct influence on the way people regard us D. is of particular importance when we get on in age |
2. From Paragraph 3 we can see young adults believe certain types of clothing can _____. |
A. change people's conservative attitudes toward their lifestyle B. help young people make friends with the opposite sex C. make them competitive in the job market D. help them achieve success in their interpersonal relationships |
3. Many career women find themselves in difficult situations because _____. |
A. the variety of professional clothing is too wide for them to choose B. women are generally thought to be only good at being fashion models C. men are more favorably judged for managerial positions D. they wonder the extent for them to display the feminine qual- ities through clothing |
4. What is the passage mainly about? |
A. Dressing for effect. B. How to dress appropriately. C. Managerial positions and clothing. D. Dressing for the occasion. |

In many ways, the earliest periods of photography are the most satisfying. Learning to use the controls is easy and comes quickly, and you can measure the results in terms of sharp and correctly de- veloped pictures. Once you have mastered that, you can start on the second step of your photographic work. Using these basic skills in the wide variety of situations to give the pictures you want, noticing what you see through the viewfinder and turning that into the most effective picture become totally interesting. All good photographs have one thing in common: there is no doubt what the subject of the picture is meant to be. Every photog- rapher must use those same standards to his or her work, not only to finished results but to the subject before he or she takes it. Always work out quite clearly what the subject of the picture is to be and why you are taking the picture. For example, "I am going to take a picture of this street to show the different styles and ages of the buildings and that people have been living,working and shopping in them since time began." By doing this you have a better idea of what to include in the picture and what to leave out. How often have you been shown photographs taken by people away on a trip some- where? The judgment is always similar, something about"the car park is out of the picture to the left",or " you can't quite see from this picture but if you go up the street". The photographs are usual- ly collections of buildings, people, parked cars, possibly a distant look of an ancient church, and best of all, a figure which you are told is Aunt Henrietta, disappearing in the middle distance. When photographers show you their pictures, they have a clear idea of what they want to bring to your attention, but it often does not ap- pear in the picture. If they had given just a little of their time to think about their future judgment before taking the picture, then the picture would relate its own story. Good pictures can show their sub- jects quickly and easily. |
1. What does the first sentence of the passage mean? |
A. The skills of photography are not as satisfactory nowadays as before. B. The earliest pictures were the best pictures people have ever taken. C. The present-day photography depends more on technology than on art. D. Learning to produce a sharp and correctly developed picture is only the first step in photography and is easily learned. |
2. What will it bring you if you decide the purpose of the photo- graph in advance? |
A. It will allow you to leave out unnecessary material. B. It will allow you to stand in the best place. C. It will help you to vary the subjects of your pictures. D. It means you will waste less time. |
3. Many photographers fail because____. |
A. their pictures include both buildings and people B. everything is not clear in their pictures C. the subjects of their pictures are not obvious D. the explanation given for their pictures is mistaken |
4. What book is this passage most likely taken from? |
A. A book on photography for news reporters. B. A book on how to photograph people. C. A book on choosing the right camera. D. A book on improving photographic techniques. |

[1] Doctors may soon have some suggestions for health that even kids will like: more playtime. European and international health experts say a new study makes the most convincing case for the benefits of children being active. They say the research may lead to new guidelines saying youngsters aged between 5 and 16 need to be active up to 1.5 hours a day. [2] Experts said the study doesn't mean children need to be on treadmills (跑步机) or in a soccer leagues-they just need to be able to run around and play physically, even for short bursts of time. [3] The study looked at 1,732 9-year-olds and 15-year-olds from Denmark, Estonia and Portugal. Physical activity was observed for four continuous days. Despite differences among the three coun- tries where children were observed, the benefits of physical activity were the same. [4] About 40 percent of those observed were reasonably ac- tive, while the rest were sedentary, researchers said. The study found that the benefits of physical activity applied to all children- not just to obese ( 肥胖的) children normally thought to be at a higher risk. [5] While much attention has been paid to children's bad eat- ing habits,this study calls for equal weight to be placed on activity levels. [6] "We don't need to be getting kids running on treadmills in the gym." said Cavil."We need to encourage kids to play." One of the study's key findings, he explained, is that it proves the benefit of short bursts of activity, rather than a need for continuous exercises. [7] But _____ perhaps the greatest factor in children's physical activ- ity will be the parents themselves."It's not just that children should be more active,it's the whole family," said Weiss."Parents should be role models." |
