When I began to know what other peoples lives were like because they could not read, I realized the true importance of reading. My first student Marie was a 44- year-old single mother of three. In the first lesson, I found out she walked two miles to the nearest supermarket twice a week because she didnt know which bus to take. When I told her I would get her a bus timetable, she told me it would not help because she could not read it. She said she also had difficulty once she got to the supermarket because she couldnt always remember what she needs. Since she did not know words, she could not write out a shopping list. Also, she could only know items by sight, so if the product had a different sign, she would not know it as the product she wanted. As we worked together, learning how to read built Maries self-confidence, which encouraged her to continue her studies. She began to make fast progress and was even able to take the bus to the supermarket. After this successful trip, she reported how self-confident she felt. At the end of the program, she began helping her youngest son, Tony, a shy first grader with his reading. She sat with him before he went to sleep and together they would read bedtime stories. When his eyes became wide with excitement as she read, pride was written all over her face. As she described this experience, I was proud of myself as well. I found that helping Marie to build self-confidence was more rewarding than anything I had ever done before. As a literacy volunteer, I learned a great deal about teaching and helping others. In fact, I may have learned more from the experience than Marie did.54. Marie didnt go to the supermarket by bus because_.A. she lived too close to the supermarketB. she wanted to stay fit through walkingC. there were no bus stops in front of the supermarketD. she had no idea which bus to take to the supermarket55. What did the writer probably find when he was teaching Marie to read?A. Marie learnt how to read really fastB. Marie had no gift for learning how to readC. It was hard for Marie to change her habitsD. It was hard for Marie to build self-confidence56. We learn that in the end_.A. Marie could read and became confidentB. the writer chose to help Maries son to read tooC. the writer decided to spend more time learning to readD. Marie thought she learnt more from the experience than the writer57. What is the passage mainly about?A. The importance of learning to readB. The difficulties that a single mother facedC. The writers most unforgettable experienceD. The writers experience as a literacy volunteer(C) If the rose can be said to be a special flower, then the apple can be said to be a special fruit. It is very important in American culture. American stories speak of Johnny Appleseed, who went throughout America collecting apple seeds and planting apple trees. He had a great love for nature and went through fields and farms adding richness and beauty to the country.One of the first sayings taught to school children is, “An apple a day keeps the doctor away.” This short saying encourages children to eat fresh fruit to keep healthy. If someone always says good words to a person, people will call him an “apple polisher”. This, however, is not a good name. If someone is very dear to us, we say that he or she is the “apple of our eye”.Most people believe that the fruit which Eve gave to Adam was an apple, even though the Bible(圣經) never says so. The apple, therefore, is a deep part of the language and stories of America.An apple is also delicious. Apples can be cooked in many ways, used as a dessert, and made into sweet juice.In many parts of the country during the harvest season, a popular activity is to go into an apple garden to pick apples. Washington, D. C. and New York are both famous for their apples.Finally, when its time to take a vacation to American cities, one can always visit New York, which is “the biggest apple” of all the American cities.58. What does the underlined phrase “apple polisher” mean?A. Something for cutting apples. B. A person who likes to please others. C. A person who is dealing with fruits. D. A machine for cleaning apples quickly. 59. “An apple a day keeps the doctor away” is a proverb about _.A. cookingB. medicineC. shoppingD. health60. Which of the following is TRUE with apples?A. Apples are medicine. B. Apples are the most important food. C. New York is famous for its big apples. D. The Bible says Adam was given an apple. 61. The passage is mainly about_.A. stories about the apple B. apples in American culture C. some famous sayings of the apple D. big cities that is famous for apples (D)Many daily American expressions are based (以為基礎) on colours.Red is a hot colour. Americans often use it to represent heat. When they say “red-hot”, that means they are very angry about something. Loud music is popular with many people. Some may say that such music is red-hot. Pink is a lighter kind of red. People sometimes say “Im in the pink” when they are in good health. The expression was first used in America at the beginning of the 20th century. It probably comes from the fact that many babies are born with a nice pink colour that shows that they are in good health.Blue is a cool colour. The old Blues music in the United States is the opposite of red-hot music. Blues is slow and sad. Someone who is “blue” is very sad.The colour green is natural for trees and grass. But it is an unnatural colour for humans. A person who has an upset stomach may say “Im feeling a bit green”. A person on a boat who is feeling very sick from high waves can be said “l(fā)ook very green”. Sometimes a person may be very jealous because he does not have anything as nice as someone has, like a fast new car. That person may say “Im green with envy”. Some people are green with envy because someone has more dollars or “greenbacks”. Dollars are called greenbacks in American slangs because that is the colour of the bottom of their bank notes.The colour black is used often in expressions. People may say “its a black day” when everything goes wrong on that day.In some cases, colours describe a situation. Blackouts were common during the World War II. All the lights in a city were turned off at night to make it difficult for enemy planes to find their aims in the dark.閱讀短文，選擇最佳選項。( )62. What does “Im in the pink” mean? A. Im sad.B. Im happy.C.

But this hobby sometimes has serious results-at least to the players. For example, when people play tennis, sometimes they hurt their elbow (肘部) and in this way they develop "tennis elbow". Also it is easy to hurt a knee in a football game. These injuries (損傷) happen while the player is having fun, but they still hurt. A few months ago, Kathleen Simmons, who loves playing volleyball, hurt her knee in a volleyball game. Her doctor told her that she needed a very difficult operation (手術) or she might not be able to play again. She felt very sad and didnt know what to do. Then Simmons learned about "video operation". With the help of this new science in medicine, doctors can now repair many injuries and get people back on the playing field and back to their jobs much faster. Simmons found a hospital that was using this new science and went to see the doctor there. The doctors told her the operation could help. For this operation, her doctor didnt have to open her knee. Instead he put a very small camera lens (鏡頭) inside her knee. The lens sent back pictures, which appeared on a television screen. As he worked, he could see the inside of her knee on the TV. With the help of the large pictures on the screen, the doctor knew exactly what to do when he was making the repairs. Simmons started walking five days after her operation. "My knee hurt a lot the first few days," she said. "But I felt
