　　I had an unusual conversation with a woman about physical limitations. Nancy suffered

　　1

　　a serious disease and she could no longer walk. She spent her

　　2

　　(wake) hours in a wheelchair.

　　“I’m not ‘confined (限制)’ to a wheelchair,” she insisted one day. “It doesn’t confine me but

　　(set) me free.”

　　She asked me, “Do you want to know

　　reason for living?”

　　“What is it?” I wondered.

　　“To liberate people. To set them free. Before I got my wheelchair,” she explained, “I had trouble getting around. Now I can go places! However I can free people, I want to do

　　5

　　.”

　　“People speak of being ‘shut in,’” she continued. “People

　　6

　　are confined to a room or a house or a bed are not ‘shut in.’ They’re ‘shut out’ – shut out of activities and shut out of people’s lives. So my aim is to liberate people, to set them free, however I can.”

　　Because of her disease, Nancy now helps people find ways of gaining more physical

　　7

　　(free).

　　Listen to these words from Darwin P. Kingsley: “You have powers you never dreamed

　　. You can do things you never thought you

　　9

　　do. There are no limitations in

　　10

　　you can do except the limitations of your own mind.”

　　阅读下列四篇短文，从每小题后所给的A,B,C或D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

　　My father was Chief Engineer of a merchant ship,which was sunk in World War Ⅱ. The bookNight of the U-boats told the story.

　　Memories

　　In September,1940,my mother,sister and I went to Swansea,where my father’s ship was getting ready to sail. We brought him a family photograph to be kept with him at all times and keep him safe.

　　Then I remember my mother lying face down,sobbing. She had heard from a friend that the ship had been sunk by a torpedo (鱼雷).

　　I can remember the arrival of the telegram (电报),which in those days always brought bad news. My grandmother opened it. It read,“Safe. Love Ted. “

　　My most vivid memory is being woken and brought down to sit on my father’s knee,his arm in a bandage.

　　He was judged unfit to return to sea and took a shore job in Glasgow for the rest of the war. For as long as I can remember,he had a weak heart. Mother said it was caused by the torpedoes. He saidit was because of the cigarettes. Whichever,he died suddenly in his early 50s.

　　Ten years later I readNight of the U-boats and was able to complete the story.

　　Torpedo

　　One torpedo struck the ship. Father was in the engine room,where the third engineer was killed. He shut down the engines to slow the ship making it easier for it to be abandoned.

　　By the time he got on deck (甲板)he was alone. Every lifeboat was gone except one which had stuck fast. When he tried to cut it free,it swung against the ship,injuring his hand and arm. He had no choice but to jump—still with the photograph in his pocket.

　　Three days later,he and other survivors were safe in Glasgow. All 23 with him signed the back of the photograph.

　　A Toast

　　In my room is the book and the photograph. Often,glass in hand,I have wondered how I would have dealt with an explosion,a sinking ship,a jump into a vast ocean and a wait for rescue?Lest(以免)we forget,I have some more whisky and toast the heroes of the war.

　　1. We can infer that the mother and children went to Swansea　.

　　2. What did the author learn about the father from the telegram?

　　3. The underlined word“it” in Paragraph 6 refers to the father’s　.　

　　A. weak heart　B. taking a shore job

　　C. failure to return to sea D. injury caused by a torpedo

　　4. What can we know about the author’s father after his ship was attacked?

　　A. He lost his arm.

　　B. He repaired the engines.

　　C. He managed to take a lifeboat.

　　D. He was the last to leave the ship.

　　5. What is the passage mainly about?

　　阅读下列四篇短文，从每小题后所给的A,B,C或D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

　　Tim Richter and his wife, Linda, had taught for over 30 years near Buffalo, New York—he in computers, she in special education. “Teaching means everything to us, " Tim would say. In April 1998, he learned he would need a heart operation. It was the kind of news that leads to some serious thinking about life’s purpose.

　　Not long after the surgery, Tim saw a brochure describing Imagination Library, a program started by Dolly Parton’s foundation(基金会) that mailed a book every month to children from birth to age five in the singer’s home town of Sevier, Tennessee. “I thought, maybe Linda and I could do something like this when we retire, “ Tim recalls. He placed the brochure on his desk, “as a reminder. "

　　Five years later, now retired and with that brochure still on the desk, Tim clicked on imaginationlibrary. com. The program had been opened up to partners who could take advantage of book and postage discounts.

　　The quality of the books was of great concern to the Richters. Rather than sign up online, they went to Dollywood for a look-see. “We didn’t want to give the children rubbish, " says Linda. The books—reviewed each year by teachers, literacy specialists, and Dollywood board members—included classics such as Ezra Jack Keats’s The Snowy Day and newer books like Anna Dewdney’s Llama Llama series.

　　Satisfied, the couple set up the Richter Family Foundation and got to work. Since 2004, they have shipped more than 12, 200 books to preschoolers in their area. Megan Williams, a mother of four, is more than appreciative:　“This program introduces us to books I’ve never heard of."

　　The Richters spend about $400 a month sending books to 200 children. “Some people sit there and wait to die, “ says Tim. “Others get as busy as they can in the time they have left."

　　1. What led Tim to think seriously about the meaning of life?

　　A. His health problem.　 B. His love for teaching.

　　C. The influence of his wife.D. The news from the Web.

　　2. What did Tim want to do after learning about Imagination Library?

　　A. Give out brochures.

　　B. Do something similar.

　　C. Write books for children.　D. Retire from being a teacher.

　　3. According to the text, Dolly Parton is　.　

　　A. a well-known surgeonB. a mother of a four-year-old

　　C. a singer born in Tennessee D. a computer programmer

　　4. Why did the Richters go to Dollywood?

　　A. To avoid signing up online.

　　B. To meet Dollywood board members.

　　C. To make sure the books were the newest.

　　D. To see if the books were of good quality.

　　5. What can we learn from Tim’s words in the last paragraph?

　　A. He needs more money to help the children.

　　B. He wonders why some people are so busy.

　　C. He tries to save those waiting to die.

　　D. He considers his efforts worthwhile.
