　　Passage 1

　　University Can Wait

　　I was on my way to the library to do some studying for history class. That’s when I saw my friend and her family __41__ on doors.

　　As I was standing __42__ one house, my friend’s brother walked past me and went to the door of the house. When the resident __43__ I heard him say, “Excuse me, I am __44__ money for my mom. She needs to have __45__ but we don’t have enough money. Could you please __46__ with a donation?”

　　The lady gave him some __47__ and he said, “Thank you so much! God bless you.” Then he walked on to the next house.

　　I could see he didn’t have much and I also saw he had been __48__.

　　__49__ going to the library, I went to the bank. I told him I wanted to __50__ all my savings. The lady in the bank said to me, “But, sweetie, I thought you were going to use that money to go to __51__.” I told her something else __52__ so she gave me the money. Then I walked to my friend’s house.

　　They had only raised nine hundred and sixty-two dollars, which wasn’t __53__ a quarter of what they needed. I told my friend to __54__ my money. When she saw it she __55__ straight away it was my university money.

　　The idea of going to university had been a very __56__ one for me — __57__ I got accepted—but she needed the money more than I did. It was this __58__ of money that could save her mother’s life.

　　I hope all goes well for her and her family. My love and __59__ go out to them. Leo Tolstoy once said “Nothing can make our life, or the lives of other people, more beautiful than permanent__60__.”

　　Passage 2

　　Last week we received a call from a dear friend, Karen. Karen is the mother of three children—a pair of 1-year-old twin boys and one

　　21

　　three- year-old “big sister” named Amanda.

　　It seems that Amanda has been a good girl all year and all she wanted for

　　22

　　was the Barney Banjo (班卓琴). Her mother had called all the stores in their area, but no 23

　　. Her mother had also visited dozens of Internet sites 24

　　the magic banjo, but still couldn’t find any. Karen then began asking all her friends to

　　25

　　.

　　A local store flyer （传单）was advertising them, so we

　　26

　　it. After we entered the store, I looked up and down the toy shelves. Although the Barney Banjo had been 27

　　in the flyer, I could not find any. Then, a clerk came holding a Barney Banjo and 28

　　it directly to me without saying a word. I

　　29

　　her name tag (标签) said, “Karen”.

　　My wife Susan and I went up to 30

　　it and all the clerks looked at us with

　　31

　　, asking us where we found the Barney Banjo. They said the Barney Banjo had been out of

　　32

　　for days.

　　Then things became very

　　33 . Not only did the clerks claim they had run out of the product, but they also looked 34

　　when we mentioned “Karen”, who gave me the Banjo. The clerks didn’t have the 35

　　idea who that lady was.

　　We

　　36

　　called our friend Karen and told her the good news

　　37

　　she would not have to tell her daughter that Santa could not

　　38

　　her a banjo this year. Karen was so happy. We could

　　39

　　her smile through the phone lines. When we told her the story about the clerk named Karen that no one else

　　Passage 3

　　To being or not to being

　　A few weeks after arriving in China I received an e-mail informing us foreigners how to look after ourselves in summer, including a warning not to eat cold foods.

　　Why are cold foods

　　41 ? According to traditional Chinese medical beliefs, cold food should be avoided in summer in case one

　　42

　　a "summer disease", which sounds to me a bit

　　43

　　a cocktail you might drink at a pool party.

　　The idea of food being linked to well-being is hardly

　　44

　　to China. But in the West we think

　　45

　　of the rules of what is and isn't good for you. It seems each week there is a new study praising the

　　46

　　of tomatoes or claiming animal fats are bad for you. The next week another expert will swear you should

　　47

　　away from tomatoes and eat more pork belly. The

　　48

　　thing to do is to pay attention to the ones you agree with and

　　49

　　the ones you don't, eventually

　　50

　　a strict diet of dark chocolate and red wine.

　　In China, however, there is a range of

　　51

　　beliefs about food and how

　　52

　　you eat impacts your health. There is

　　53

　　a saying - a good

　　54

　　should first be a good chef.

　　To an outsider, these rules can seem a little strange, and

　　55

　　most of the reasons for eating certain foods are fairly

　　56 , others can seem puzzled if they are not the simple philosophies you are

　　57

　　to. So, I ignored the

　　58

　　mail, continuing to eat cold food at

　　59

　　throughout summer. So far, so good. Anyway, a cold food is just the medicine to

　　60

　　the summer heat.

　　41. A warned B forbidden C bad D improper

　　42. A catches B prevents C keeps D grasps

　　43. A by B with C like D as

　　unusual C unique D unnecessary

　　Passage 4

　　We often see hitchhikers（搭便车的人）, standing by the side of the road, thumb sticking out, waiting for a lift. But it is getting

　　21

　　nowadays. What killed hitchhiking?

　　22

　　is often mentioned as a reason. Movies about murderous hitchhikers and real-life crime

　　23

　　many drivers off picking up hitchhikers.

　　24

　　no single women picked me up on my journey to Manchester

　　25

　　reflects the safety fear

　　26

　　, strangely dressed man is seen as dangerous.

　　But the reason may be

　　27

　　complex hitchhiking happens where people don’t have cars and transport services are

　　28

　　. Plenty of people

　　29

　　hitchhike in Poland and Romania. Perhaps the rising level of car ownership in the UK means the few people lift hitchhiking are usually considered strange. Why can’t they

　　30

　　cars? Why can’t they take the coach or the train?

　　Three-quarters of the UK population have

　　31

　　a car; many of the

　　32

　　will be quite old. The potential hitchhiking population is therefore small.

　　33

　　my trip proves it’s still possible to hitchhike. The people who picked me up were very interesting lawyer, retired surgeon, tank commander, carpenter, man who live in an isolated farmhouse and a couple

　　34

　　in the mountains. My conclusion is that only really interesting people are mad enough to pick up fat blokes(家伙) in red, spotted scarves. Most just wanted to do someone a good turn; a few said they were so surprised to see a hitchhiker that they couldn’t help

　　35

　　.

　　The future of hitchhiking most

　　36

　　lies with car-sharing organized over the Internet, via sites such as hitchhikers. org. But for now, you can still stick your thumb out (actually, I didn’t do much of that,

　　37

　　just to hold up my destination sign) and people—wonderful, caring, sharing, unafraid people—will stop.

　　In the UK, with its cheap

　　38

　　and reasonable rail service, I don’t think I’ll make a habit of it. But having enjoyed it so much, I’m ready now to do a big trip

　　39

　　Europe and beyond. In the 1970s a female friend of my wife’s hitchhiked to India. How wonderful it would be to have another go,

　　40

　　Afghanistan might be a challenge. I wish I’d got that tank commander’s mobile number.
