Passage 1
About a week ago, my 4-year-old cousin and I were playing basketball at our local park. The
41
was warm, and many other children were outside
42
. As we played, I noticed a small group of boys
43
a smaller, skinner, and possibly younger boy. They were calling his names and
44
pushed him to the ground and
45
dirt in his face. When I saw that, I grabbed my
46
by the hand and walked over to the
47
.
I stepped
48
them and the younger boy, and asked them
49
what this boy had done to deserve
50
they were doing to him. They all
51
silently for a moment, and then the most amazing thing
52
: One of the boys who hadn’t said anything since I
53
stepped around me and helped the small boy off the
54
and then apologized. He offered to let him play with them,
55
the boy quietly said “thank you” and refused, then left there.
As I looked around, I
56
that there were dozens of other people at the park—some of them were
57
with children of their own—but no one else had stopped to help this boy. I felt
58
that the one of the boys was brave enough to stand up against his friends to help someone
59
, but I felt sad that no one else had even taken a second
20
. I couldn’t help but think that those other parents at the park would want someone to help their child in that situation, and yet they did nothing but stand by.

I've been in the taxi business for thirty-five years, 23 there is a lot about it that is not so good. Taxi drivers have to be rough and tumble(乱作一团) fellows to be able to take it in New York. You've got to be 24 to fight the New York traffic eight hours a day.

fellows. You read in the papers almost every week 27 a taxi driver turns in money or jewels or like that people leave in their 28. If they weren't honest, you wouldn't be reading those stories in the papers. One time, I found an emerald（翡翠的） ring in my car. I remembered helping a lady with a lot of suitcases that day, so I went back to where I had 29. It took me almost two days to wait for her in order to return her 30 to her. I didn't get as much as “thank you.” 31, I felt good because I had done what was right. I think I felt better than she 32.
I was born and raised in Ireland until I was nineteen years old. I came to this country in 1913 where I 33 several jobs to earn a few dollars before joining the army in World War I. After being discharged(退伍), I bought my own car and have owned one ever since. It hasn't been too easy 34, but my wife takes care of our money and we have a good bit 35 for a rainy day(一时之需). In all my years of driving a taxi, I have never had 36 with the public, not even with drunks. Even if they get a little headstrong(顽固的) once in a while, I just agree with them and then they behave themselves.
People ask me about tips. As far as I know, 37 everyone will give you something, because most Americans are 38 generous. I always try to be nice to everyone, whether they 39or not. I believe in God and try to be a good member of my parish（教区）. I try to act toward others like I think God wants me to act. I have been trying this for a long time, and the 40 I try, the easier it gets.

Passage You may not realize it, but you are doing much more than just studying when you are at school. School is also the place
21
you socialize and learn to get along with people. But this is
22
easy. What can you do
23
you just don’t like one of your classmates?
If you discover that you have problems
24
your classmates or friends, the most important thing to learn is tolerance. Tolerance is the
25
to recognize and respect the
26
in others. We cannot change the way that other people act,
27
it is important to learn to live happily with them.
Practicing tolerance will allow everyone to form better
28
with each other. Getting to know someone
29
help you understand why they do things
30
from you. It is important to remember that just because something is different does not mean that it is bad.
31
teaches us to keep an even temper and open mind.
One thing to
32
is the old saying, “Treat others how you want
33
”. You would like to be treated kindly by your classmates, so it is
34
to treat them with equal kindness. If you tolerate
35
it does not mean that you have to like it. No one is asking you to
36
who you are or what you believe in. Tolerance just means that you will be
37
of the differences in others and not try to make them change.
It is important to
38
tolerance because it will make everyone’s lives easier.
Learn to
39
people for their different abilities and interests. The world is a very
40
place, and practicing tolerance in your own school and city can help make a difference.

Passage 4
The moment I stepped off the plane after a writer’s conference, my youngest son Jeremy greeted me and cried out, “Poster paper, Mama! I need poster paper. We’re having a
41
at school.”
Being a housewife and writer, I felt like no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t keep up with the needs of my
42
. Back at home, Jeremy kept reminding me of the poster paper, but I just couldn’t
43
a minute for it. Gradually though, he began to speak more
44
, almost
45
he were talking to himself. Maybe he’ll just forget it, I thought hopefully. So I put Jeremy’s request at the
46
of my long list of things to do.
My third day home I managed to take fifteen minutes to type an article when a small
47
fell across my paper. I knew who it would be before I
48
. Jeremy stood quietly watching me. Oh, Lord, please don’t let him say it again. I knew what he wanted but I needed to
49
. I smiled
50
at Jeremy and kept typing. He
51
for a few more minutes, then turned and walked away. I almost didn’t hear his
52
. “Competition is over tomorrow, anyway.” The small figure walking out of my room, a silent voice spoke urgently to my heart, “Get him that paper—now!”
“Let’s go to get the paper, Jeremy.” He stopped,
53
and looked at me in
54
“You’re going to the store just for me?” I
55
. Suddenly, a look of
56
shot across his face, erasing the disbelief. I don’t think I’ll ever
57
that moment. Later that day, he worked silently on the
58
all afternoon. And a few weeks later, a large yellow envelope came. Inside it was the Certificate of Award. So
59
was I that I didn’t turned away from his
60
to get him some poster paper.
