My friend Michelle is blind, but you’d never know it. She makes such good use of her other 21 , including her “sixth sense”, that she rarely gives the impression that she’s 22 anything.
Michelle looks after her children pretty much like the rest of us, 23 that she doesn’t push too hard on them, 24 _ really benefit a lot from her relaxed attitude. She knows when to clean the house; she moves around so fast that often 25 don't find out she’s blind.
I 26 this the first time my six-year-old daughter, Kayla, went to play there. When Kayla came home, she was very 27 about her day. She told me they had baked cookies, played games and done art projects. But she was 28 excited about her finger-painting project.
“Mom, guess what?” said Kayla, all smiles. “I learned how to 29 colors today! Blue and red make purple, and yellow and blue make green! And Michelle 30 with us.
To my great 31 , my
child had learnt about color from a blind friend!
Then Kayla continued, “Michelle told me my 32 showed
joy, pride and a sense of accomplishment. She really 33
what I was doing!” Kayla said she had never felt how interesting finger paints were
34 Michelle showed her how to paint without looking at her paper.
I realized Kayla didn't know that Michelle was blind. It had just never 35 in conversation.
When I told her, she was 36 for a moment. At first, she didn’t believe me. “But Mommy, Michelle knew exactly what was in my picture!”
Kayla 37 . And I knew my child was 38 because Michelle had listened to Kayla describe her artwork. Michelle had also heard Kayla’s 39 in her work.
We were silent for a minute. Then Kayla said slowly, “You know, Mommy, Michelle really did ‘see’ my picture. She just used my 40 .”
Indeed, she uses a special type of “vision” that all mothers have.

第二部分 阅读理解 （共25小题。第一节每小题2分，第二节每小题1分，满分45分）
第一节 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项中，选出最佳选项
(A)
A three-day training session of emergency first aid instructors opened yesterday at the Beijing Shanshui Hotel.
Co-organized by the Hong Kong St John’s Ambulance Corp and the Beijing Emergency Medical Centre, it aims to teach first aid and show people how to escape from disasters.
More than 100 people took part in the training. Most of them were selected from high-risk occupations where the incidence of accidents and disasters is much higher---public security officers, firemen, hotel personnel, and club employees, for example. Volunteers in first aid also joined in.
“Before the training class, I had almost no idea about first aid. It will be very helpful to me, because I will know what to do the next time I encounter a traffic accident. Maybe I will be able to save a life,” said Wang Chunquan, a long-distance bus driver from the Beijing Bafangda Transport Company.
Fine arts publishing house editor Wang Taijun decided to become a first aid volunteer after hearing about it from a friend.
“First aid skills would not only help others but also myself if a disaster should suddenly happen,” he said.
Emergency rescue doctor Yang Pingfen, from the Beijing Emergency Medical Centre, said many lives could be saved if people knew how to deal with accidents and injuries.
He estimated only about one in 150 Beijingers knew how to use first aid. This proportion should increase to one in 60 in time for the Olympic Games in 2008, the municipal government advises.
41. What does the training plan to get?
A. Experts on first aid. B. Qualified doctors.
C. The emergency rescuers. D. First aid instructors.
42. The people who take part in the training are the following people except ______.
A. police officers B. firefighters
C. hotel personnel D. club employers
43. Why does Wang Taijun attend the training?
A. He is eager to get some knowledge on first aid.
B. He plans to be a doctor in the future.
C. He prepares for the emergency-will-be.
D. He wants to learn all kinds of knowledge.
44. What is the main idea of this passage?
A. Many people attended the first aid training in Beijing.
B. Beijing is preparing for the volunteers of the 2008 Olympics.
C. An emergency training was held in Beijing.
D. 1 in 60 Beijingers will know first aid till the Beijing Olympic Games.

On a popular teachers’ website, there is a classroom activity to help make children aware of the implications of the different generations of the same family living far from each other. It’s a story about Mrs. Eiderdown, an elderly lady whose grandchildren have moved to Australia with their parents. She lives alone and rarely sees her family.
First of all, the children speculate about Mrs. Eiderdown’s life. What does she have for breakfast? What does she do all day? How does she feel about her life?
One day, Mrs. Eiderdown decides that she wants a pet to keep her company and puts an advertisement in a local shop window. Then she waits at home to see if anyone will answer her advertisement.
A tall thin man rings her doorbell. He is holding a cardboard box. Mrs. Eiderdown chats with the man for ten minutes before she realizes that she hasn’t looked inside the box to see what the pet is. She can hear a hissing sound. The children guess what is in the box (a snake). Mrs. Eiderdown thanks the man but says she doesn’t think the snake is a good idea.
The next time the doorbell rings, there’s lady on the doorstep, also carrying a cardboard box. In the bottom of the box, Mrs. Eiderdown sees something black and hairy with eight legs. Again, the children say what they think it is (a spider). Mrs. Eiderdown thanks the lady for her kindness but says that a spider is not the sort of pet she has in mind.
At last, the little girl next door brings her a dog. Mrs. Eiderdown’s life improves a lot because of the dog. More importantly, of course, the little girl, whose own granny lives a long way away, starts to visit Mrs. Eiderdown more often. This interactive classroom idea has led to a greater awareness among children about the possible loneliness of older people who live quite near them.
45. What’s the main idea of the passage?
A. Children get to know about the trouble of the elderly.
B. Neighbours help select pets for Mrs. Eiderdown.
C. Society helps the lonely people in the UK.
D. Schools send pets to the lonely elderly.
46. When Mrs. Eiderdown advertised for a pet, _.
A. she was offered a frightening, hissing dog
B. her neighbour’s daughter gave her a lovely dog
C. a thin woman wanted to give her a large spider
D. a man brought her a snake and a spider in a box
47. What does the underlined sentence in the third paragraph mean?
A. They talk about how she feels about being old.
B. They try to experience her loneliness.
C. They try to imagine how she lives.
D. They write about her life story.
48. What can we infer from the passage?
A. The little girl often visits her own granny.
B. The people who offer pets are the lady’s neighbours.
C. The farther the elderly live, the more lonely they feel.
D. The little girl begins to care more about Mrs Eiderdown.
(C)
The young boy saw me, or rather, he saw the car and quickly ran up to me, eager to sell his bunches of bananas and bags of peanuts. Though he appeared to be about twelve, he seemed to have already known the bitterness of life. “Bananas 300 naira. Peanuts 200 naira.” He said in a low voice. I bargained him down to 200 total for the fruit and nuts. When he agreed, I handed him a 500 naira bill. He didn’t have change, so I told him not to worry. He said thanks and smiled a row of perfect teeth.
When, two weeks later, I saw the boy again, I was more aware of my position in a society where it’s not that uncommon to see a little boy who should be in school standing on the corner selling fruit in the burning sun. My parents had raised me to be aware of the advantage we had been afforded and the responsibility it brought to us.
I pulled over and rolled down my window. He had a bunch of bananas and a bag of peanuts ready. I waved them away.
“What’s up?” I asked him.
“I…I don’t have money to buy books for school.” I reached into my pocket and handed him two fresh 500 naira bills. “Will this help?” I asked. He looked around nervously before taking the money. One thousand naira was a lot of money to someone whose family probably made about 5,000 naira or less each year. “Thank you, sir.” he said. “Thank you very much!”
When driving home, I wondered if my little friend actually used the money for schoolbooks. What if he’s a cheat? And then I wondered why I did it. Did I do it to make myself feel better? Was I using him? Later, I realized that I didn’t know his name or the least bit about him, nor did I think to ask.
Over the next six months, I was busy working in a news agency in northern Nigeria. Sometime after I returned, I went out for a drive. When I was about to pull over, the boy suddenly appeared by my window with a big smile ready on his face.
“Oh, gosh! Long time.”
“Are you in school now?” I asked.
He nodded.
“That’s good,” I said. A silence fell as we looked at each other, and then I realized what he wanted. “Here,” I held out a 500 naira bill. “Take this.” He shook his head and stepped back as if hurt. “What’s wrong?” I asked. “It’s a gift.”
He shook his head again and brought his hand from behind his back. His face shone with sweat. He dropped a bunch of bananas and a bag of peanuts in the front seat before he said, “I’ve been waiting to give these to you.”
49. What was the author’s first impression of the boy?
A. He seemed to be poor and greedy.
B. He seemed to have suffered a lot.
C. He seemed younger than his age.
D. He seemed good at bargaining.
50. The second time the author met the boy, the boy ______.
A. told him his purpose of selling fruit and nuts
B. wanted to express his thanks
C. asked him for money for his schoolbooks
D. tried to take advantage of him
51. Why did the author give his money to the boy?
A. Because he had enough money to do that.
B. Because he had learnt to help others since childhood.
C. Because he held a higher position in the society.
D. Because he had been asked by the news agency to do so.
52. Which of the following best describes the boy?
A. Brave and polite. B. Kind and smart.
C. Honest and thankful. D. Shy and nervous.
(D)
A decade ago Susic Makinster learned she might have a liver problem. Her doctors told her not to worry. So she didn't — until three years ago, when she was astonished to learn she had tested positive for hepatitis（肝炎）C, a blood-borne virus she had never heard of. Makinster, then 45, had been living with an infection that would likely stay with her for life and that could eventually destroy her liver and cause her death. Yet she had no idea how or when she had contracted the virus.
Hepatitis C wasn't even discovered until 1989. Today an estimated 3.9 million Americans are infected, and most of them still don't know it. Like HIV, hepatitis C is a slowacting virus that can be transmitted by shared needles and blood transfusions. But it is far more rampant. There is no vaccine to prevent its spread, and no reliable treatment. Some 75 percent of people who contract the virus will carry it for life; 20 percent will develop cirrhosis of the liver. Hepatitis C is now the nation's leading reason for liver transplantation, and the second leading cause of cirrhosis (after alcohol). It will kill roughly 10,000 Americans this year — and that number is expected to triple over the next two decades, as more past infections come to light. Says Surgeon General David Satcher, “This is a major public health crisis.”
Until treatment is less hit-or-miss, living with hepatitis C will be a matter of accommodation. Though most people who contracted the virus become chronically infected, many never develop advanced liver disease. That’s partly luck, but not entirely. Giving up alcohol brightens the prognosis(预断), and many sufferers talk of the benefits of reducing stress and getting more rest. Getting vaccinated against hepatitis A and B is also a good idea, since another infection can worsen the disease. And preventing further spread requires some precautions. Experts are divided on the need to practise safe sex, since the virus is normally only in the blood. But they stress the importance of covering open wounds and not sharing razors and toothbrushes.
53. According to the passage, the leading cause for liver cirrhosis is ________.
A. too much drinking B. hepatitis C
C. hepatitis A D. hepatitis B
54. According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?
A. No one who contracts hepatitis C can hope to live long.
B. More people have contracted hepatitis C than HIV.
C. Alcohol is the chief cause for hepatitis C.
D. Hepatitis C is sexually transmitted.
55. The number of people who will die of hepatitis C in twenty years will be ________.
A. 20,000 B. 10,000 C. 30,000 D. 40,000
56. All of the following measures should be taken if one is tested positive for hepatitis C EXCEPT _______.
A. never to practice sex
B. giving up alcohol
C. getting more rest
D. covering open wounds and not sharing razors and toothbrushes
( E )
Few creations of big technology capture the imagination like giant dams. Perhaps it is humankind’s long suffering at the mercy of flood and drought that makes the idea of forcing the waters to do our bidding so fascinating. But to be fascinated is also, sometimes, to be blind. Several giant dam projects threaten to do more harm than good.
The lesson from dams is that big is not always beautiful. It doesn't help that building a big, powerful dam has become a symbol of achievement for nations and people striving to assert themselves. Egypt’s leadership in the Arab world was strengthened by the Aswan High Dam. Turkey’s bid for First World status includes the giant Ataturk Dam.
But big dams tend not to work as intended. The Aswan Dam, for example, stopped the Nile flooding but deprived(使丧失) Egypt of the fertile silt that floods left — all in return for a giant reservoir of disease which is now so full of silt that it hardly generates electricity.
And yet, the myth of controlling the waters continues. This week, in the heart of civilized Europe, Slovaks and Hungarians have come close to sending in the troops in their disagreement over a dam on the Danube(多瑙河). The huge project will probably have all the usual problems of big dams. But Slovakia is bidding for independence from the Czechs(捷克), and now needs a dam to prove itself.
Meanwhile, in India, the World Bank has given the permission to the even more wrong-headed Narmada Dam. And the bank has done this even though its advisors say the dam will cause hardship for the powerless and environmental destruction. The benefits are for the powerful, but they are far from guaranteed.
Proper, scientific study of the impacts of dams and of the cost and benefits of controlling water can help to resolve these conflicts. Hydroelectric(水力电气的) power and flood control and irrigation are possible without building such giant dams. But when you are dealing with myths, it is hard to be either proper, or scientific. It is time that the world learned the lessons of Aswan. You don't need a dam to be saved.
57. The third sentence of paragraph 1 implies that _______.
A. people would be happy if they shut their eyes to reality
B. the blind could be happier than the sighted
C. over-excited people tend to ignore vital things
D. fascination makes people lose their eyesight
58. In paragraph 5, “the powerless” probably refers to _______.
A. areas short of electricity
B. dams without power stations
C. poor countries around India
D. common people in the Narmada Dam area
59. What is the myth about giant dams?
A. They bring in more fertile soil.
B. They help defend the country.
C. They strengthen international ties.
D. They have universal control of the waters.
60. What the author tries to suggest may best be summarized as _______.
A. “It's no use crying over spilt milk”
B. “More haste, less speed”
C. “Look before you leap”
D. “He who laughs last laughs best”

Writing： Film or book, which do you prefer?
Some of us think that it is better to see the film than to read the book in the original. The reason is that it takes less time to understand the whole story. Besides, the film is usually more interesting, and it is easier to follow.
Some others have just the opposite opinion. They think that they can get more detailed information from the original. Meanwhile, the language in the book is possibly more lively and beautiful.
Personally, I agree with the second view. Actually I have more reasons for it. I think I can stay at home, reading quietly in a situation of my own, and what's more, I am able to better understand the author's ideas. In a word, to read the original work is better than to see the film based on it.
