Armed with two over-packed suitcases, we arrived at the airport just in time for my flight. As I watched her unload my luggage, I could see the 36_ in her eyes. One last hug and a final good-bye, and I would be on my way to a new life 37 .“ You’d better go or you’ll miss your flight,” she said. “I’ll 38 you,” I replied, and with those words I 39 . By the time I reached the customs, I was 40 . While boarding the plane I was still crying. I did not have the 41 to put my bag in the overhead locker, so I put it on the 42 seat next to mine. Born just fifteen months apart, we not only looked alike, we were alike. We both had that same mix of 43 and fear of all things unknown to us. One sunny summer day I was playing outside when she came 44 to me and said, “ Want to come to the attic(阁楼)？” The answer was always “ 45 ”. We were frightened of the attic but also 46 by its smells and sounds. Together we would get through masses of dust and look through a lot of boxes _47 we found what we needed. The plane shook 48 and my bag fell onto the floor. My aspirin, hairbrush and some other things were 49 on the floor. I _50 over to gather them up when I saw a(an) _51 little book in the middle of my belongings. It was a diary. Immediately I 52 my sister’s handwriting. “Hi, Sis. What a day it has been today. You let me know that you are moving abroad…” Only _53 did I realize that my sister had been 54 a diary for the past month. I read about my sister’s comings and goings during the flight. Even though a large ocean 55 us, at some point it felt like she was actually there.

Don’t you think your schoolbag is too heavy to bear? The e-schoolbag will free you from the weight. It is said that e-schoolbags are going to be brought into use in Chinese middle schools soon. An experiment with several hundred e-schoolbags will begin in seven cities: Beijing, Shanghai, Dalian, Shenzhen, Chongqing, Taiyuan and Shijiazhuang. And the e-schoolbags are going to cover all over China if the experiment proves to be successful. In fact, the e-schoolbag should perhaps be called an e-notebook. It is a small hand-held computer for school students. Heavy schoolbags have long been a serious problem for school students. The average schoolbag of middle school students weighs up to 5 kilos. But the e-schoolbag will change everything. It is much lighter than a usual schoolbag, weighing under 1 kilo. Also, it is no bigger than a usual book, but it can still hold all the things for study, such as a textbook, a notebook and exercise book. They could be made into chips that are as small as a stamp. The students can read the text page by page on the screen. They can still take notes using a special electronic pen. If they want to know the meaning or the pronunciation of a new word, or even e-mail their teachers, it’s just a press of a button. In some foreign countries, it is becoming common. But it is hard to tell when people will receive this new form of study. Some say that e-textbooks can be easily broken, some say that it is not good to students’ eyesight to look at the screen for long. But only time will tell. 1.The e-schoolbag has many functions EXCEPT ________.
2.According to the passage, the e-schoolbag ________.
3.Which of the following statement is TRUE?
4.The best title for the passage should be ________.

The 92-year-old, thin, calm and proud lady, who is fully dressed each morning by eight o’clock, even though she is nearly blind, moved to a nursing home today. Her husband of 70 years recently passed away, making the move necessary. After many hours of waiting patiently in the hall of the nursing home, she smiled sweetly when told her room was ready. As she walked slowly to the elevator, I provided a true description of her tiny room, including the old sheets that had been hung on her window. “I love it,” she said with the happiness of an eight-year-old girl having just been presented with a new puppy. “Mrs. Jones, you haven’t seen the room…just wait.” “That doesn’t matter,” she replied. “Happiness is something you decide ahead of time. Whether I like my room or not doesn’t depend on how the furniture is arranged. It’s how I arranged my mind. I have already decided to love it. It’s a decision I make every morning when I wake up. Each day is a gift, and as long as my eyes open I’ll focus on the new day and all the happy memories I’ve stored away.” She went on to explain, “Old age is like a bank account. You take what you’ve put in. So, my advice to you would be to put in a lot of happiness in the bank account of memories. Thank you for your part in filling my memory bank.” And with a smile, she said, “All my memories are happy ones.” Mrs. Jones was always happy in the nursing home and she died at the age of 108. 1.We can infer from the passage that the author ________.
2.The room in which the old lady will live ________.
3.Mrs. Jones was very happy when told about her room because she ________.
4.Which of the following words can best describe Mrs. Jones?

For many years, I had a belief that my suffering was due to my size. I believed that when the weight disappeared, it would take old wounds, hurts, and rejections with it. Many weight－conscious people also mistakenly believe that changing our bodies will fix everything. Perhaps our worst mistake is believing that being thin equals being loved，being special, and being cherished. We fantasize（幻想） about what it will be like when we reach the long－awaited goal. We work very hard to realize this dream. Then, at last, we find ourselves there. But we often gain back what we have lost. Even so, we continue to believe that next time it will be different. Next time, we will keep it off. Next time, being thin will finally fulfill its promise of everlasting happiness, self－worth, and, of course, love. It took me a long while to realize that there was something more for me to learn about beauty. Beauty standards vary with culture. In Samoa a woman is not considered attractive unless she weighs more than 200 pounds. More importantly, if it’s happiness that we want, why not put our energy there rather than on the size of our body? Why not look inside? Many of us strive hard to change our body, but in vain. We have to find a way to live comfortably inside our body and make friends with and cherish ourselves. When we change our attitudes toward ourselves, the whole world changes. 1.The passage tries to highlight the importance of ________.
2.What does the word “everything” in paragraph 2 mean?
3.What can be inferred about the author?
4.According to the author, what is the common view of those who have lost some weight first and gained it back later?

My son. The phrase felt difficult and strange the first time I said it, and I had to practice it a thousand times． I started saying the words to myself the day when the ultrasound told me we were having a baby． Finally, my son was born. The nurse came out of the delivery room, holding a tiny, howling human being wrapped in a white sheet, his small hands and delicate fingers shaking nervously. “Baby Sanchez?” she asked, looking at the room full of expectant fathers. I stood up, holding my breath． She showed me my baby． “My son,” I whispered. The little guy screamed, “waaaaaaaaaah.” But in my heart I heard him cry out, “Daaaaaaad!” I don’t care if everyone in the room will swear they didn’t hear my baby say that. I called him, “My son,” and he called me “Dad,” and that’s that. People ask me, “What did you feel at that moment?” I can’t even begin to answer. I’m a writer yet I try hard to find the right words. Joyful isn’t powerful enough. Bliss(狂喜) is not sweet enough. Peaceful isn’t calm enough. Happy isn’t tense enough. After my son was taken away to the nursery, I sat down and shut my eyes. But tears escaped them away. Then out of the blue, my 80-year-old father entered, and we embraced. “Dad,” I whispered. “My son,” my heart heard him saying. Suddenly the past 33 years folded into the present and I was now the baby bundled in white, with my father standing over me. “My son,” I imagined him saying. “Daaaaaaaaaad!” I cried my little lungs out. At that point, I knew I was going to be a great father. The old man in front of me seemed to agree. He smiled and we walked out of the room in search of the tiny human being that would change our lives for ever. 1.Which of the following statement is TRUE according to the passage?
2.The author couldn’t tell how he felt at the moment because ________．
3.We can learn the following from the passage EXCEPT that ________．
4.Why was the writer sure he was going to be a great father?
