Nobody died in Pakistan, a country next to India. The City of Lahore was lucky. In Lahore American School, where I was studying, all of the students were safe. They were on the field, so most children didn't feel anything. The earthquake was felt by the teachers that were on the second floor. However, though Mrs Young was also on the second floor, she didn't feel anything. She didn't know what happened until a teacher told her about it. Those teachers who were on the other floors had different feelings. Mr Emond, the maths teacher from Australia, said that when the earthquake started he thought there was something wrong with him, but then another teacher said that it was an earthquake. After those words Mr Emond felt better. Mrs Davis and Mr Frost didn't feel anything either.

My mother didn't feel anything. She didn't even know that it was an earthquake till she saw a shaking (moving from side to side) light. My dad saw the computer shaking and then he looked out of the window and saw many people going out. 1. People use \ .

It was a cold night. The taxi driver didn’t take even one passenger（乘客） all day. When he went by the railway station， he saw a young man coming out with two bags in his hands. So he drove to him and asked， “Where are you going，sir?”

“To the Red Hotel，” the young man answered. When the taxi driver heard this， he didn’t feel happy any more. The young man would give him only three dollars because the hotel was near the railway station. But suddenly， he had an idea. He took the young man through many streets of the big city.

After a long time， they arrived at the hotel. “Here we are! You should pay me fifteen dollars， please，” the taxi driver said to the young man. “What? Fifteen dollars! Do you think I’m a fool? Only last week， I took a taxi from the railway station to this hotel and I only gave the driver thirteen dollars. I know how much I have to pay for the trip.”  1.The driver was not happy before he saw the young man. 2. It is very far from the railway station to the Red Hotel. 3.

I couldn‘t read your two e-mails until today because my computer was broken. I‘m sorry to hear about your problem, but I‘m glad you‘re feeling better and are recovering(康复). I‘m surprised that in China someone‘s liver(肝脏) matched yours! This is really a moving story– a stranger donated part of his liver to a girl he doesn‘t even know!

You‘re right. We shouldn‘t care too much about our weight. I‘m happy you stopped taking those weight-loss pills. From your photo I can see you are now looking very well in the hospital. To keep slim is important, especially for an actress, but nothing is more important than health. Your doctor‘s advice is indeed very good– exercise for at least half an hour every day and eat lots of fruit and vegetables.

It‘s not only in your country. It‘s the same here with us Chinese– many people are always going on diets or taking weight-loss pills, which are often dangerous. But in fact, some of them are not overweight(超重) at all. I hope these people can learn something from your story. Hope you will leave hospital as soon as possible. Love XXX

39. Who does ―a girl‖ in the letter refer to?

A. The writer of the letter. B. Amy.

C. A stranger. D. An unknown person. 40. Which country is the writer of the letter from?

A. America. B. China. C. Germany. D. England. 41. Which of the following is NOT right?

A. Amy has probably just received an operation on liver. B. Amy is now probably in hospital recovering. C. A Chinese man donated part of his liver to Amy.

D. Amy is now still going on diets or taking weight-loss pills. 【答案】39-41BB D

When I was about 12, I had an enemy, a girl who liked to be point out my shortcomings(缺点). Sometimes she said I was thin. Sometimes she said I was lazy. Sometimes she said I wasn‘t a good student. Sometimes she said I talked too much, and so on. I tried to put up with(忍受) her as long as I could. At last, I became very angry. I ran to my father with tears in my eyes.

He listened to me quietly, and then he asked, ―Are the things she said true or not? Mary, didn‘t you ever wonder what you‘re really like? Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things she said.‖

I did as he told me and to my surprise, I discovered that about half the things were true.

I brought the list back to my dad. He refused to take it. ―That‘s just for you,‖ he said. ―You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself. When something said about you is true, you‘ll find it will be helpful to you. Don‘t shut your ears. Listen to them all, but hear the truth and do what you think is right.‖

Many years have passed. The situation often appears in my mind. In our life we often meet with some trouble and we often go to someone and ask for advice. For some advice you will treasure(珍惜) all your life! 42. What did the writer‘s father do after he heard her complaints(抱怨)? A. He agreed with her ―enemy‖.

He chatted with anyone who was interested in the clothes and soon we learnt that he was going to a kindergarten(幼儿园) party. He had done a great job of putting together interesting costumes.

I noticed that the little boy was paying mostly with change(零钱). It seemed that he had robbed his pig bank(猪形储蓄罐) to do this shopping. However, the cashier told him he was short after counting all the money. The boy thought for a moment and said, ―Please keep the shirt and I will come back with more money. ―
