In the lunchroom, Cody heard an older boy talking about having a lucky pen. He decided to get it for me. The boy was a tough negotiator強硬的談判者but Cody didn’t give up. In the end, he 43 his lunch, his favorite Matchbox car, two army men his brother gave him, a crayon, and a piece of candy – his most important things, for that pen. Just to make 44 feel better.
I still have that pen, though it’s long out of ink, in a cup on my desk. When a refusal letter arrives and I start feeling 45 , I look at it and remember just how lucky I am. For while I value that pen, it’s Cody who I really 46 in my life.

Dana shouted for help. An airport leader appeared and called 911. He told Dana to get on the plane. Dana said that she was not moving until an ambulance救護車arrived. The leader said her plane would leave without her. Dana said that she didn’t care.
At last, an ambulance and two doctors finally arrived. The doctors gave the old man a checkup and said that there seemed to be nothing very serious with him and he would be fine. They put him into the ambulance and drove off.
On her way to the plane, which hadn’t taken off by then, Dana saw the worker who hadn’ t cared about the old man. The worker said, “You’re lucky the plane didn’t leave without you.”

Teachers say that the digital數字age has had a good influence and a not-so-good influence on American teenagers. More than 2,000 middle and high school teachers took an online survey. Researchers also spoke with teachers in some groups. Most teachers think the Internet and digital search tools have had a mostly positive influence on their students’ research habits and skills. But at the same time, some teachers also point out some problems in teenagers’ using digital search tools.
The Pew Internet Project did the survey with the College Board and the National Writing Project. Judy Buchanan is the director of the National Writing Project and a co-writer of the report. She says digital research tools are helping students learn more, and learn faster. “Both teachers and students really welcome these tools because they make learning exciting. And the goal is to really help students become creators of something meaningful, and not just users of the online information.”
But one problem the survey found is that these technologies make teenagers have short attention spans持續時間. As there is huge amount of information about different subjects on the Internet, teenagers’ attention is easily drawn away from their research.
Another problem the survey found is that many students trust the information they find on the Internet too much. Judy Buchanan says these students have not developed the skills to judge the online information. They need to learn a lot to tell if the information is believable. It’s something that really has to be paid attention to.
One more problem the survey found is something that might not seem like a problem at all: being able to quickly find information online. Many students think “doing research” now means just doing a quick search on Google. Teachers say the result is a drop in the wish and ability of their students to work hard to find answers. That is, they are overly dependent on search engines and do not make enough use of printed books or research librarians.
Many teachers also say that the Internet makes it easy for students to copy work done by others instead of using their own abilities.
53. The result of the survey shows ______.
A. digital search tools need to be greatly improved
B. digital search tools are generally good for teenagers
C. teenagers have difficulty in using digital search tools
D. American teachers enjoy using digital search tools
54. Using digital search tools makes teenagers ______.
A. less trusting of online information
B. more independent in doing research
C. more willing to work hard to find answers
D. less able to pay full attention while searching
55. To do better in research, teenagers should _______.
A. spend more time searching online
B. ask their teachers for more advice
C. make better use of printed materials
D. learn more knowledge of search tools
D
Are you a good receiver? It might sound like a funny question but it is an important one that each of us should ask ourselves.
Strangely, most of us are better givers than receivers. We give to our family, our friends and even charities, and opposite to what we might think, most of us are actually very good at giving. But receiving is another matter. We often feel a little uneasy when receiving, although it is not very noticeable. Even praise gets deflected轉向when it comes our way. When someone praises us for helping him move or clean up the house, we will possibly say, “Ah, it was nothing.” When someone praises the coat we are wearing, we may mention how we bought it at a discount instead of simply enjoying the praise. Actually, the praise is a gift to us, and when we don’t receive it properly, we are dishonoring the giver.
Giving is easy, as there is much pleasure in giving, but receiving is an art that takes practice. To be a good receiver requires a sense of close relationship with the giver. It is always a pleasure for a giver to see the gift received in a pleasant way. And this is also the best way for a receiver to honor the giver and give him something back.
Many relationships are not so good not because people are not giving to each other, but because they are not receiving from each other well. We should receive the love, respect the praise, and give thanks every time giving happens. We should practice receiving all the pleasures that happen to us every day, instead of taking them for granted. Think of how many simple everyday gifts we are being given all the time: the beauty of nature, art and inspiring激勵人的conversations. But are we truly receiving them when they happen to us, or are we busy with other matters, not noticing? We should master the art of receiving: accept the gifts life offers us and show our appreciation for them.
We are taught that it is better to give than to receive. But this suggests that there is something wrong with receiving. There is nothing wrong with receiving. It is better to give and receive. Let life shower us with gifts, pleasures, joys, surprises, both large and small, and let us take notice of all these things and accept them happily and thankfully. The more we can receive, the more we can give back, but giving more does not necessarily mean receiving more. We must remember it is harder to receive than to give, and try to practice receiving. This practice will benefit us greatly, making us become good receivers as well as good givers.
56. According to Paragraph 2, what do we possibly do when we are praised?
A. Honor the giver publicly.
B. Show our pleasure clearly.
C. Receive the praise uncomfortably.
D. Express our disagreement properly.
57. The expression “taking them for granted” probably means “_______”.
A. looking for them with expectation
B. depending on them with satisfaction
C. getting away from them without regret
D. benefiting from them without appreciation
58. What can we learn from the passage?
A. People usually can receive more by giving more.
B. People usually try to receive as much as possible.
C. People should give a gift back when receiving one.
D. People can improve relationships by receiving well.
59. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Be a Good Receiver and Giver
B. Better to Give Than to Receive
C. Better to Give, Better to Receive
D. Be a Receiver Rather Than a Giver

It doesn’t matter when and how much a person sleeps, but everyone needs some sleep to stay alive. That’s what all doctors thought until they heard about Herpin. _60 . Could this be true? The doctors decided to see this strange man themselves.
Herpin was 90 years old when the doctors came to his home in New Jersey. They thought for sure that he got some sleep of some kind. So they stayed with him and watched every movement he made. 61 . Though they watched him hour after hour and day after day, they never saw him sleeping.
In fact, Herpin did not even own a bed. He never needed one. The only rest that Herpin sometimes got was sitting in a comfortable chair and reading newspapers. The doctors were puzzled疑惑 by this strange continuous sleeplessness. 62 , so they asked him many questions.
They found only one answer that might explain his condition. His mother had been injured several days before he was born. 63 . Was this the real reason? No one could be sure.
A. As a result, he came to the world a few days earlier
B. They hoped to find out the real reason for it
C. Someone said Herpin never slept in his life
D. However, the result was very surprising
E. Herpin died at the age of 94

Do you ever think about how many tissues紙巾you use during the winter months? Greenpeace, an environmental group, hopes you’ll start. They recently started a campaign運動called “Shop Smart, Save Forests.”
The goal of the campaign is to ask people to give up soft tissues. “Recycled tissues do the job,” says a Greenpeace activist積極分子. “Soft tissues are luxury奢侈的and more expensive than recycled tissues.”
At the same time, the paper industry continues to encourage people to buy the luxury tissues. Their advertising highlights the softness of these products. A manager at the Kimberly-Clark company says many buyers want very soft tissues and recycled paper just can’t achieve it. For these buyers, the company offers the high-priced “Kleenex” brand, made of non-recycled paper. For its other less expensive brands, the company does use recycled paper.
Not good enough, insists Greenpeace. They explain that Kimberly-Clark and its competitors should give up luxury paper. They are destroying many old forests. “How many trees have to be destroyed so people can blow their noses?” asks a Greenpeace activist.
Greenpeace has talked to people on the streets in some of America’s big cities, including San Francisco, New York, and Washington. It has asked people to compare the two kinds of tissues and see if they can tell the difference. The result is that most people can tell the difference, but they say the difference is small. And most say they’d be willing to change to the recycled tissues to help save the environment.
As part of their campaign, Greenpeace has also asked people to write to paper companies and ask them to use recycled paper for their whole product line. Kimberly-Clark reports receiving tens of thousands of emails and letters. Hopefully, this will make them give up the non-recycled paper.
65. What is the goal of the campaign?
66. Which are more expensive, recycled tissues or soft tissues?
67. How does the paper industry advertise the luxury tissues?
68. Why does Greenpeace want the paper companies to give up luxury paper?
69. To achieve its goal, what has Greenpeace asked people to do?

Hi! Tom,
I’m really moved by what Mr. Smith did for you.
In 2014, Wei Peng, my best friend, offered me the greatest help.

Wei Peng is a true friend. I should learn from him. He tries his best to encourage and help a friend instead of looking down upon him.
