During one of the toughest weeks of my life, I had the chance to experience surprising grace(善举). I was in my office, when a young man came by. He was obviously very 36 and close to tears. He was an older student and always appeared like a tough guy, 37 showing emotion. He had told me 38 that he was dealing with some difficult 39 problems. He was a caregiver for his sister who was ill. This day he came in, sat down and just sobbed(抽泣). I 40 while he told me how he had been up all night in the hospital with his sister and that was why he couldn’t take my exam that morning. I told him not to 41 it at all. He was clearly in no shape for an exam. I told him to go home and 42 . I reassured(使放心) him that I would do everything I could to help him get through the class. I just sat there while he sobbed. “I think she might die,” he gasped(喘着气说). “What am I going to do?” It was clear to me that he had never 43 this fear out loud to anyone. I just sat there, fully focused on him and his 44 , and tried to offer some soft words of 45 . After quite some time, he 46 himself. I reassured him again that it didn’t matter to me when he took his exam and that I would help him through. Then he left. Afterwards, I felt like his 47 was a blessing(为人带来幸福的事). Being able to help him while I was in pain myself was the most valuable gift. Life never gives more than we can handle.

Crazy is our new normal. With two teenage boys and three little boys, our family is restless—to the baseball field, track field(田径场)and piano lessons. Even though we’ve limited each boy’s activities and try our best to defend our family time, it seems that we’re in a constant state of flight. “Embrace it. Roll with it,” my husband, Lonny, says, “It’s going to be like this for a while.” He is right. It’s likely that life will continue to go forward before it slows down. But I remembered the still, quiet days that our family used to enjoy. I missed long walks through the park when we held the boys’ little hands. I longed for(渴望) lazy Saturday afternoons under the tree in our backyard. I wanted to slip back a few years, when busyness was the exception and not the rule. One night, after a particularly full day and evening games, our family gathered on the porch(门廊)for ice cream. Two parents, two teens, and three small boys piled on one old swing and a couple of rocking chairs. We were together, in one place, for a small slice of time. The moon was full. The Mississippi River, flowing past our home, was smooth as glass. I wrapped my own arms around the son who sat on my lap and breathed deeply to inhale his little-boy scent(气味)—dirt and sweat. My heart was still and content(满足的). I realized that while crazy is our new normal happiness is as usual. They may look different from before, but they are still there—even if they’re in the form of a single moment on the porch. Maybe I just need the eyes to see. 1.What does the author mainly talk about?
2.How did the author feel about life before the night sitting on the porch with the family?
3.The underlined word “inhale” in the fifth paragraph probably means ______.
4.Which of the following could describe the author’s present life?
5.Which of the following statements might the author agree to?

To help the environment, many Americans have made the change from paper and plastic bags to reusable grocery bags. But a report by a Florida newspaper says that reusable grocery bags sold by some supermarkets contain high levels of lead(铅). Lead is a metal that can be harmful to humans, especially young children, Now, Senator Charles Schumer is asking the US government to investigate(调查) the use of lead in reusable shopping bags. “When our families go to the grocery store looking for safe and healthy foods to feed their kids, the last thing they should have to worry about is poisonous bags.” Schumer said, “A quick investigation will allow everyone to make informed, timely decisions.” Schumer added. Lead in the bags is not likely to rub off (因摩擦而粘在……上面)on food. But over time, paint on the bags can chip and the bags can wear out. When this happens, lead can be released(释放). The Tampa Tribune newspaper said certain bags sold at Publix and Winn-Dixie supermarkets had lead levels that were a concern to health officials. The affected bags were found in Florida. But Publix has more than 1,000 stores in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Sough Carolina and Tennessee. Publix says that all of its bags are under current laws about lead content, but that they have asked the makers of the bags to reduce the lead levels in the product. The bags with the highest levels of lead had fancy designs and many pictures. Plain reusable bags without decoration were found to contain little lead. Consumers worried about lead levels in reusable bags can change to cloth or string bags. Paper bags are also a good choice, since paper can be recycled(回收). Since 2007, Publix supermarkets have sold more than 13 million reusable bags. The store says because shoppers have made the change to reusable bags, it has saved more than 1 billion paper and plastics bags. 1. The shopping bags containing high levels of lead ______.
2.From Schumer’s words we can learn that ______.
3.It can be inferred from the text that Publix might believe that the bags they sold are ______.
4.Customers are advised to choose bags ______.
5.From the last paragraph we know that the use of reusable bags has ______.

Directions: Read the following passage. Complete the diagram by using the information from the passage. Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer. As we all know, all the governments in the world collect taxes（税）, but what are they and what are they used for? Some people may not know about them. There are two kinds of taxes. One of the most important taxes is income-taxes which a person pays according to the amount of his income. Whatever he is, he must pay tax if income is more than a certain amount. This is called a “direct” tax, because it is paid in money directly to the government. Another tax is paid on goods. When they are brought into a country, such a tax is paid as part of the price of these goods if they are later sold in shops. We call it “indirect” tax, because it is paid indirectly through the shopkeepers. People usually complain about having to pay taxes, but they forget that the money is spent on what they need. On one hand, we need policemen and soldiers to protect us from danger. Meanwhile, we also need schools and teachers for our children. On the other hand, we need officials and workers to serve us. Above all, we need money to develop our nation. Taxes, therefore, can’t be avoided. We have no real reason to complain when we are asked to supply money to be spent for the good of ourselves and for our fellow-citizens. Title: 1. are necessary in our life
