My 8­year­old son，Kevin，has made friends with some boys in the neighborhood. He has been 36    with them after school. My wife，and I are 37    he has other kids to be with and we have __38__ and encouraged him to play with his friends. We also want Kevin to learn __39__，so we have asked him to tell us __40__ he's going and to come home at a specified time.
The __41__ started when Kevin didn't come home on time. On one occasion，I asked Kevin to be back at 6 pm. By 6：30，I needed to go __42__ him. I found him at a friend's house，and he looked 43    that he couldn't continue playing. After we came home，I sat  Kevin down for a talk about the _44  _ of  keeping his word. I told him I was not worried about his arriving a few __45__ late， after a half hour， he told me he understood and I was _46_  _.
The next day，I came home from work at about 6:30 pm and my wife asked me to go and get Kevin back __47__ she said he should be back home at 6. I walked to his friend's house and a look of __48__ appeared on Kevin's face when he came to the door.
At __49__，my wife and I spoke to Kevin about why he didn't come home on time again. He said he just wanted to _50__ playing. This was __51__，so we decided to ground(罰不準(zhǔn)出門)him for a week. This __52_ no playing with his friends.
For the next week，whenever his friends came to ask for Kevin，we let him __53__ to them that he was grounded. We felt this would help him be responsible for his __54__.
As a __55__，I believe one of the most important things we can teach our kids is self-responsibility and that actions have consequences.

It is men’s nature to live together in families and tribes(部落), and cities and nations, and therefore men have learned to prize those qualities in each other which make social life the happiest and best.
Of these qualities one of the most important is sympathy－fellow-feeling. If a man had no fellow-feeling, we should call him “inhuman”; he would be no true man. We think so much of this quality that we call a kind man “human”－that is, man-like in his conduct, first to other men, and afterwards to all living things.
If you are cruel to animals, you are not likely to be kind or thoughtfull to men; and if you are thoughtful towards men, you are not likely to be cruel and thoughtful towards animals. This is why the wise man of old wrote, “The merciful man is merciful to his beast.”
What a pleasure it is also to be loved by our pets or domestic animals; and to feel that we are caring for them and are deserving of their love; or to watch the ways of wild creatures, and gradually to make friends with them!
Treating animals kindly does not mean that we must never inflict any pain on them. We ourselves are trained by pains as well as by pleasures; so too, punishment is sometimes needed to train our dogs and horses to obey us. We endure pains at the hands of the surgeon, to cure some wound or to heal some disease; so too, animals must submit to being doctored.
We send out our bravest men to face wounds, sickness and death, for the good of the nation; so too, we let our horses share the risk of battle. For similar reasons, we cannot hesitate to destroy dangerous creatures like wolves and show senseless ferocity(殘忍). It is no excuse to say that these animals deserve to be treated cruelly on account of their own cruelty. They are not really cruel, for they tear and kill not from love of unkindness, but because they must do so in order to live.
小題1:One of the most important qualities of men is fellow-feeling because      .
A．you are likely to be cruel and thoughtful without it
B．a(chǎn) man would be inhuman without it
C．men can’t bear any pain on themselves and animals
D．only sympathy makes a man man-like in his conduct
小題2:The author would probably agree with the following EXCEPT that  　.
A．we must never force any pain on animals
B．some people have to kill some animals in order to live
C．it is human for a doctor to cut off some part from the animals
D．wise men are not only good to men but also to animals
小題3:What do you think is the title of the passage?
A．Loving your pet.B．Fellow-feeling.
C．Making friends with animals.D．Kindness to animals.
小題4:Which of the following is inhuman according to the writer?
A．To treat animals cruelly because they are cruel.
B．To train animals.
C．To destroy some of the dangerous animals.
D．To make animals submit to being doctored.
小題5:The underlined word “inflict” here means      .
A．make sb/sth sufferB．forbid
C．punishD．a(chǎn)void

Dash of Hope
"Dash" is a symbol which represents every day we’ve spent alive on earth．Therefore, how you spend your "dash" is important．
Recently I   36  about a little girl named Hope．After learning more about her life, I couldn’t help but feel it was not by   37  , nor happenstance, that she had been named "Hope"．The strong feeling of sympathy and generosity  38  in her young heart made a lasting impression on me and countless others． 39   I never had the opportunity to meet her, I wish I had．It seems as though she was wise beyond her tender years and very, very special．

Her efforts were not in vain as they continue to help others, not only   54  , but spiritually and emotionally as well．At the gathering to celebrate her life, "A Celebration of Hope" on January 16, 2011 , the   55  was made that they had indeed received donations totaling more than one million dollars．Her wish had been granted!

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：不詳 題型：閱讀理解

“Mum, what does it mean when someone tells you that they have a skeleton (骨骼) in the closet (衣櫥)?” Jessica asked. “A skeleton in the closet?” her mother paused thoughtfully. “Well, it's something that you would rather not have anyone else know about. For example, if in the past, someone in Dad's family had been arrested for stealing a horse, it would be 'a skeleton in his family's closet'. He really wouldn't want any neighbor to know about it.”
“Why pick on my family?” Jessica's father said with anger. “Your family history isn't so good, you know. Wasn't your great-great-grandfather a prisoner who was transported to Australia for his crimes?”“Yes, but people these days say that you are not a real Australian unless your ancestors arrived as prisoners.”“Gosh, sorry I asked. I think I understand now,” Jessica cut in before things grew worse.
After dinner, the house was very quiet. Jessica's parents were still quite angry with each other. Her mother was ironing clothes and every now and then she glared at her husband, who hid behind his newspaper pretending to read. When she finished, she gathered the freshly pressed clothes in her arms and walked to Jessica's closet. Just as she opened the door and reached in to hang a skirt, a bony arm stuck out from the dark depths and a bundle of white bones fell to the floor. Jessica's mother sank in a faint (暈倒), waking only when Jessica put a cold, wet cloth on her forehead. She looked up to see the worried faces of her husband and daughter.
“What happened? Where am I?” she asked. “You just destroyed the school's skeleton, Mum,” explained Jessica. “I brought it home to help me with my health project. I meant to tell you, but it seemed that as soon as I mentioned skeletons and closets, it caused a problem between you and Dad.” Jessica looked in amazement as her parents began to laugh madly. “They're both crazy,” she thought.
小題1:According to Jessica's mother, “a skeleton in the close” means ________.
A．a(chǎn) family honorB．a(chǎn) family secretC．a(chǎn) family storyD．a(chǎn) family treasure
小題2:What can we learn about some Australians' ancestors from Paragraph 2?
A．They were brought to Australia as prisoners.
B．They were the earliest people living in Australia.
C．They were involved in some crimes in Australia.
D．They were not regarded as criminals in their days.
小題3:Why did Jessica bring a skeleton home?
A．She was curious about it.B．She planned to keep it for fun.
C．She needed it for her school task. D．She intended to scare her parents.
小題4: Jessica's parents laughed madly at the end of the story probably because ________.
A．they were crazy.
B．they were over excited.
C．they realized their misunderstanding.
D．they both thought they had won the quarrel.

Have you ever been to the beautiful country of Holland and its capital Amsterdam? Anyone who has traveled to Amsterdam would probably agree on one thing: Amsterdam's story is a tale of two cities -- one during the day and a completely different one at night．
During the day, the largest city in the Netherlands sits quietly on the Amstel River．You can rent a bicycle, visit the Van Gogh or Anne Frank museum, or take a water taxi．But when the sun goes down, the partying begins．In the big clubs and in coffee shops, tourists gather to hang out, talk politics and smoke．
Several areas of the city clearly show the two worlds that rule Amsterdam．And they're all within a short cab ride of each other．For example, Dam Square attracts daytime sightseers to its festivals, open markets, concerts and other events．Several beautiful and very popular hotels can be found there．And there's the Royal Palace and the Magna Plaza shopping mall．
But at night party-seekers come to the square．Hip hop or funk music is heard there．．So if you come, be ready to dance．The clubs don't shut down until 4 am．
And while you're there, check out the various inexpensive ways to tour the city．Don't worry about getting lost．Although Dutch is the official language, most people in Amsterdam speak English and are happy to help you with directions．And you'll notice that half the people in the streets are on bicycles they rent．
Amsterdam also has a well-planned canal system．For about 10 dollars, you can use the canal bus or a water taxi to cruise（巡游） the "Venice of the North"．
The city has a historic past．One impressive place to visit is the Anne Frank House on Nine Streets．It was there that the young Jewish girl wrote her famous diary during World War II．Visitors can view Anne's original diary and climb behind the bookcase to the room where she and her family hid from the Nazis for two years．
小題1:What means of transport is not available to visitors in Amsterdam?
A．A carriage．B．A bicycle． C．A canal bus． D．A water taxi．
小題2:When getting lost, a visitor can ask natives for directions in _______．
A．only DutchB．Dutch or English
C．only EnglishD．Spanish and English
小題3:What can you learn about by visiting the Anne Frank House?
A．The experience of a beautiful girl survivor．
B．The glorious past of Amsterdam．
C．The life of Jewish during World War Ⅱ．
D．The suffering of the Dutch in wars．
小題4:The passage is intended to _______．
A．call up people’s memories of World War Ⅱ
B．tell readers what A Tale of Two Cities is about
C．instruct visitors what to do and see in Holland
D．offer readers some information about Amsterdam
