| A girl became a volunteer in the activities of Deathbed Care, which meant visiting and taking care of a patient suffering from an incurable disease with days numbered. The girl was assigned to look after an old man suffering from cancer whose children lived abroad. Their living conditions were not satisfactory while the old man had a lot of savings. She was expected to comfort him and keep up his spirits. Every Saturday the girl came on time to keep him company, telling him stories. When he was having an intravenous drip (静脉滴注), she would help massage his arms. The doctor found the patient much improved mentally. The old man began to involve himself actively in the medical treatment and he seldom shouted at others. But something that happened made the doctor uneasy and puzzled. Each time the girl left, the old man would give her some money. The doctor did nothing to interfere (干涉), unwilling to offend the old man. A month later the old man showed evident signs of decline after suffering coma (昏迷) a few times. When rescued from the latest coma, the old man told the doctor his last wish, "I have deep sympathy for the girl. Will you be kind enough to help her finish her studies?" But the doctor knew that her family was welloff and she had no difficulty pursuing her studies. Sometimes she even came to the hospital in her father's car. When the girl came at the weekend after the death of the old man, the doctor told her the bad news. She was very sad and burst into tears. Then she handed $ 500 to the doctor, saying, "The old man had all along thought I came to do the job because of poverty. He gave me money so that I could continue my schooling." Now he got the answer to the puzzle. In the last period of his life, the old man found it a real pleasure to be able to help a girl badly in need. |

| 2. What can we infer about the old man? |

| Adam Smith was the first person to see the importance of the division of the labor. He gave us an example of the process by which pins were made in England. One man draws out the wire, another strengthens it, a third cuts it, a fourth points it, and a fifth gives it a head. Just to make the head requires two or three different operations. The work of making pins is divided into about eighteen different operations, which in some factories are all performed by different people, though in others the same man will sometimes perform two or three of them. Ten men, Smith said, in this way, turned out twelve pounds of pins a day or about 4,800 pins a worker. But if all of them had worked separately and independently without division of labor, they certainly could not have made twenty pins in a day and not even one. There can be no doubt that division of labor is an efficient way of organizing work. Fewer people can make more pins. Adam Smith saw this, but he also took it for granted that the division of labor is itself responsible for economic growth and development and it accounts for the difference between expanding economies and those that stand still. In fact, the division of labor adds nothing new, and it only enables people to produce more of what they already have. |
| 1. According to the passage, Adam Smith was the first person to ________. |
| A. take advantage of the physical labor B. introduce the division of labor into England C. understand the effects of the division of labor D. explain the causes of the division of labor |
| 2. Adam Smith saw that the division of labor ________. |
| A. enabled each worker to design pins more quickly B. increased the possible output of per worker C. increased the number of people employed in factories D. improved the quality of pins produced |
| 3. Adam Smith mentioned the number 4,800 in order to ________. |
| A. show the advantages of the old labor system B. stress how powerful the individual worker was C. show the advantages of the division of labor D. stress the importance of increasing production |
| 4. According to the writer, Adam Smith's mistake was in believing that the division of labor ________. |
| A. was an efficient way of organizing work B. was an important development in methods of production C. finally led to economic development D. increased the production of existing goods |

| Their reunion was unlike any other. Graduating from the Macon, Georgia, class of 1959 gathered together in 2009, even though many of them never had an opportunity to meet during their high school days. Schools in the 1950's, like most other public locations, were segregated (隔离)in Georgia. Kids were forced to attend different schools depending on the color of their skin, and those with white skin were further separated by gender. Fifty years later these people who were not allowed to associate with each other were finally able to connect. It all began with the personal journey of a man named Tom Johnson. He grew up in Macon and enjoyed a very successful career which included serving as the publisher of the Los Angeles Times and president of CNN. Tom's life changed drastically over the years, but he still felt the desire to reconnect with his roots. In 2005 Johnson returned to Macon with his son, Wyatt. As the pair drove around town, the father recounted high school stories to his son. He talked about how students attended one of three schools: BallardHudson, Lanier or Miller. Wyatt looked over at his father and said: "Dad think about how many friends you missed getting to know." Johnson thought about the people he never got the chance to meet. He decided to do something about it. The first step was to find people who graduated from all three schools. Johnson wrote to each person and proposed they all get together for a luncheon. He explained that even though they were kept apart during their youth, they didn't have to be separated any more. His classmates received the message with open hearts. A reunion date was set for October. More than 200 former Macon students traveled hundreds of miles to reunite with people who went to high school with them. It was an unprecedented event, former students coming together to make up for the time they had lost during the days of segregation. |

| SELF STUDY TIPS However difficult you find it to arrange your time, it will pay off in the long run if you set aside a certain part of the day for studying－and stick to it. __1__ But don't forget to make sure that you have enough left for recreational activities or simply to be "with" yourself: reading a novel or watching a television programme. As part of your weekly schedule, it is also advisable to consider exactly what you have to do in that week, and make sure that you handle the most significant tasks first. __2__ On a physical level, make sure you have an area or space for studying. __3__ If you always study in the same place, preferably a room of your own, you will find it easier to adjust mentally to the activity when you enter that area. You should have everything that you might need at hand. Make sure that all the physical equipment that you use, such as a desk, chair etc. is at good height for you. If you use a personal computer, there are plenty of guidelines available from the movement on angles, lighting and the like. __4__ If you are working on topic your teacher has set, but finding it hard to concentrate, it may be that you actually need to take your mind right off it for a period of time. __5__ After a period away from the test, having not thought about it at all, you may return to it refreshed and full of ideas. A. It's wise to leave the easier or less urgent areas of your work until later. B. It's all too easy to read something and then forget where it came from. C. Consult these and avoid the typical student aches and pains. D. "Airing the mind" can work wonders sometimes. E. Make use of equipment that is available to you. F.

| Last evening, I went to a teahouse with my best friends Susan. Before the tea was serving, we talked to each other happily. When the waiter came to us with the tea, we didn't see him. Unfortunately Susan raises her hand to comb her hair just when the waiter bent to put the plate on the table. Her hand hit on the cup, and the tea was spattered(溅洒) on her trousers. In my surprise, instead complaining, Susan smiled, “So lucky that it's not on my white shirt, and I can't even clean it.”His words were very inspired. We couldn't foresee what would happen, but looking at it in a positive way could make we always happy. |
