Milk That Paid a Medical Bill
One day,a poor boy who was selling goods from door to door to pay his way through
school found he had only one thin dime(10分钱）left,and he was hungry.
He decided he would ask for a meal at the next house.However,he lost his nerve
when a lovely young woman opened the door.Instead of a meal he asked for a drink of
water.She thought he looked hungry so she brought him a large glass of milk.He drank it
slowly,and then asked,"How much do I owe you?""You don't owe me anything,"she replied. "Mother has taught us never to accept pay for a kindness."He said, "Then I
thank you from my heart."
As Howard Kelly left that house,he not only felt stronger physically,but his faith in
God and man was strong also.He had been ready to give up and quit.
Years later that young woman became critically ill.The local doctors were baffled（感
到困惑）.They finally sent her to the big city, where they called in specialists to study her
rare disease.Dr. Howard Kelly was called in for the consultation.When he heard the name
of the town she came from,a strange light filled his eyes.Immediately he rose and went
down the hall of the hospital to her room.Dressed in his doctor's gown he went in to see
her. He recognized her at once.He went back to the consultation room determined to do
his best to save her life.From that day he gave special attention to the case.After a long
struggle,the battle was won.
Dr. Kelly requested the business office to pass the final bill to him for approval.He
looked at it;then wrote something on the edge and the bill was sent to her room.She
feared to open it,for she was sure it would take the rest of her life to pay for it all.Finally
she looked,and something caught her attention on the side of the bill.She read these
words:"Paid in full with one glass of milk."Tears of joy flooded her eyes as her happy
heart prayed:"Thank You,God,that Your love has spread abroad through human hearts
and hands."Dr. Kelly gave special attention to the case mainly because
A: it was a rare disease.
B: he fell in love with the woman.
C: he was eager to distinguish himself.
D: he wanted to repay the woman for her great kindness.答案：D解析： -

Finding a Job
At sixteen Ron Mackie might have stayed at school,but the future called to him excitedly.“Get out of the classroom into a job,”it said,and Ron obeyed.His father,supporting the dcci-sion,found a place for him in a supermarket.“You're lucky,Ron,”he said.“For every boy with a job these days,there's a dozen without.” So Ron joined the working world at twenty pounds a week.
For a year he spent his days filling shelves with tins of food.By the end of that time he was looking back on his school days as a time of great variety and satisfaction.He searched for an in-terest in his work,with little success.
One fine day instead of going to work Ron got a lift on a lorry going south.With nine pounds in his pocket,a full heart and a great longing for the sea,he set out to make a better way for him-self. That evening,in Bournemouth,he had a sandwich and a drink in a cafe run by an elderly man and his wife.Before he had finished the sandwich,the woman had taken him on for the rest of the summer,at twenty pounds a week,a room upstairs and three meals a day.The ease and speed of it rather took Ron's breath away.At quiet times Ron had to check the old man's arithme- tic in the records of the business.
At the end of the season,he stayed on the coast. He was again surprised how straightforward it was for a boy of seventeen to make a living.He worked in shops mostly,but once he took a job in a hotel for three weeks.Late in October he was taken on by the sick manager of a shoe shop. Ron soon found himself in charge there;he was the only one who could keep the books.Why did Ron leave the supermarket?
A: He knew he would find work in Bournemouth.
B: He took a job as a lorry driver.
C: He gave up the job because he felt unwell.
D: He wanted to work at the seaside.答案：D解析：本文第一段的第一句说到：罗恩（Ron）感到未来在向他召唤：“走出教室，找个工作”，于是他们遵从了这一召唤。因此我们可以了解到是他自己想要开始工作。
根据本文第一段，他的父亲支持这一决定，并帮助罗恩找到了一份工作。由此我们对父亲的态度是很明确的。
本文第二段提到罗恩对学校生活的留恋，想要提高自己对目前工作的兴趣未果。由此可以判断出他认为超市的工作枯燥(dull) 。
第三段说罗恩“longing for the sea”（向往大海），因此他是想在海边找个工作的。应注意C选项中的“unwell”指身体不舒服、有病，因而不选。
根据上下文判断词汇含义。此题关键在于对“keep the books”的理解，这里指罗恩负责打理鞋店的生意，因为只有他懂得如何管理账目。而选项B中的accounts即是账目的意思。 -

第17题：
I met him on the Internet and we chatted for several months. Every time I suggested we meet in person，he would come up with an excuse. I thought it was strange-but he told me that he had not gotten over the death of his wife and he was still grieving for her.
I thought that he needed a friend and decided that I could be that friend. We sent cards, exchanged gifts，talked on the phone and I was sure that we would meet someday. I had spoken with his children so I was sure that what he told me was true. I could not wait for the day when we would meet. I was so looking forward to being able to reach out and touch him. To hug him，to hold him and feel his big strong arms around me.
After almost two years of time，thousands of dollars on long distance phone calls，I was very frustrated at the endless stream of excuses as to why we could never seem to make a time to meet. Finally，contacted the website WhoisHe. com and asked if they could check out the man who had taken up so much of my heart，my energy and my life. I had enough information about him and felt that if I could confirm what he had been telling me-I could feel okay about these delays. I had hopes that I didn't want to dash if he was telling the truth. I believed I could wait a little while longer.
Well, I am glad that I decided to have him checked out-he was nothing he claimed to be. He was first and foremost a married man. He was not a man grieving for the loss of his wife. He was a man cheating on his wife，with me-and I found out later，with countless others on the“net”. He did not care that he had hurt me in a very deep and pathetic way. He talked of spending his life together with me. He told my son that he wanted to make me happy. Basically，he just lied. He was such a good liar I did not see it coming. It was as if he had been able to worm his way into my heart-and he didn't care about the effect he had on my hopes and dreams.
Each of us should look at the signs that are so clear if we are willing to see them. Do not let someone keep making excuse after excuse. If something feels wrong-likely it is. It is good to know the truth and be able to deal with it. Next time I will pay more attention. I may never be able to trust someone online again.
It can be inferred from Para. 4 that______.
A．the man was a single person in reality
B．the woman was the man's only girlfriend
C．the man had too many girlfriends on the net
D．the woman had countless online boyfriends
正确答案：C

第19题：
He soon received promotion,for his superiors realized that he was a man of considerable（ ）.A.future
B.possibility
C.ability
D.opportunity答案：C解析：句意：他很快就得到了提升，因为他的上司们意识到他是一个很有才能的人。future首先是不与considerable（大量的）搭配，其次，一个有前途的人可译为a man with a future。possibility（可能性）不能跟在of后面修饰人，但可以说：He has future possibilities.他大有前途。opportunity（机会）也不跟在of后面作后置定语修饰人。只有ability可以这样用。 -
