I heard a great story this morning about a young girl with a very big heart.A friend was telling me a story about her customer's daughter.
The daughter goes to an expensive private school where she has a friend,Catherine,who is on a full scholarship at this school.This friend has very limited means and her mother is an immigrant from China and her father is an alcoholic.Although the girl's mother works very hard,they can barely make ends meet.This girl is very bright and gifted at music and that's how she got the scholarship from this school.
The daughter became friends with this girl and would secretly talk to her at lunch.On her birthday last month,she invited her new friend to her birthday party.The girl said she couldn't come.The daughter really wanted her to come and persisted in asking her.Eventually the girl said,“I don't have any nice clothes that I could wear to your birthday party.”After a short pause,the girl remembered,“I have this top from my piano recital,”and asked,“Could I please borrow a skirt from you?”2-1-c-n-j-y
The daughter was happy and went home to ask her Mum whether she could lend her friend one of her skirts.To her surprise,her Mum said,“No.”The daughter was very upset by this and angrily said to her Mum,“If I could,I would give my friend all my clothes.”The Mother didn't understand why her daughter would have had such an outburst as she's normally very wellbehaved.
Eventually,the daughter explained to her Mother about her friend's circumstances.Her Mother immediately changed her mind and said,“Yes.”She also encouraged her daughter not to feel like she should secretly be friends with this girl and to feel proud of her friendship with her.

A flood occurs when water overflows.This can happen in many ways.The most common is when rivers or streams overflow their banks.Excessive rain,a ruptured(破裂的)dam,rapid ice melting in the mountains can overwhelm a river and send it spreading over the near land,called a floodplain(洪泛平原).Coastal flooding occurs when a large storm or tsunami causes the sea to move inland.
Most floods take hours or even days to develop,giving residents enough time to prepare or leave.Others occur quickly,with little warning.These flash floods can be extremely dangerous,instantly turning a small stream into a thundering wall of water and sweeping everything in its path.
Disaster experts classify floods according to their likelihood of occurring in a given time period.A hundredyear flood,for example,is an extremely large,destructive event that would theoretically be expected to happen only once every century.But this is a theoretical number.In reality,this classification means there is a onepercent chance that such a flood could happen in any given year.Over recent decades,possibly due to global climate change,hundredyear floods have been occurring worldwide with frightening regularity.
Moving water has destructive power.When a river overflows its banks or the sea drives inland,structures poorly equipped to withstand the water's strength are no match.Bridges,houses,trees,and cars can be picked up and carried off.The erosive force of moving water can drag dirt from under a building's foundation,causing it to crack and tumble.
When floodwaters recede(退去),affected areas are often covered by silt and mud.The water and landscape can be polluted with hazardous materials.Residents of flooded areas can be left without power or clean,drinking water.
But flooding,particularly in river floodplains,is as natural as rain and has been occurring for millions of years.
40.Para.1 mainly tells us ________.
A.what a floodplain is
B.how a flood happens
C.how often a flood happens
D.why coastal flooding occurs
41.We can conclude from the text that ________.
A.the classification of floods is the most accurate
B.the more often a flood occurs,the more dangerous it is
C.A hundredyear flood is sure to occur every hundred years
D.global climate change may increase the chance of a hundredyear flood
42.A car's being picked up by rushing water shows that ________.
A.moving water is powerful
B.the car must be poorly equipped
C.the erosive force of water is destructive
D.the power of moving water has no match
43.What is most likely to be discussed next?
A.Disastrous floods in the world.
B.The means of preventing floods.
C.The connection between rains and floods.
D.Famous floodplains like the Mississippi Valley.

About ten years ago when I was an undergraduate in college,I was working as a practice student at my University's Museum of Natural History.One day while working at the cash register(收银机)in the gift shop,I saw an elderly couple come in with a little girl in a wheelchair.
As I looked closer at this girl,I saw that she was kind of set on her chair.I then realized she had no arms or legs,just a head,neck and main body.She was wearing a little white dress with red dots.
As the couple wheeled her up to me I was looking down at the register.I turned my head toward the girl and gave her a wink.As I took the money from her grandparents,I looked back at the girl,who was giving me the cutest,largest smile I have ever seen.
All of a sudden her handicap was gone and all I saw was this beautiful girl,whose smile just melted me and almost instantly(即刻)gave me a completely new sense of what life is all about.She took me from a poor,unhappy college student and brought me into her world:a world of smiles,love and warmth.
That was ten years ago.I'm a successful business person now and whenever I get down and think about the troubles of the world,I think about that little girl and the remarkable(非凡的)lesson about life that she taught me.

Ⅳ.任务型阅读(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)
请认真阅读下面短文,并根据所读内容在文章后的空格内填入最恰当的单词。
注意:每空格只能填1个单词。
For thousands of years the two most important buildings in any British village have been the church and the pub.In fact,until a place has a church and a pub,it isn’t really considered a community worthy of a name.Traditionally,the church and the pub are at the heart of any village or town,since it is where people gather to give and receive news.In fact,the word‘pub’is short for‘public house’.
That's how it used to be,but things are beginning to change.It is said that the credit decline is causing 39 British pubs a week to go out of business.People don't have lots of spare money to spend on beer.Recently,the UK government banned smoking in all pubs.and that may also have affected the number of customers going to pubs.
This decline is happening despite the fact that in 2005 the UK government started to allow pubs to stay open after 11 p.m.Previously,with 11p.m.as closing time,customers would have to drink quite quickly,meaning they sometimes got more drunk than they would if allowed to drink slowly.The British habit of drinking a lot very quickly is known as‘binge drinking’(狂饮),and it causes some longterm health problems for people and problems with violent crime for communities.The UK government is changing the law to discourage binge drinking,and regularly spends money on television advertisements to warn people of the problems of drinking too much.
In order to save their businesses,pubs are trying to change with the market.Now,there are a number of different types of pubs.
As you can see,British pubs now offer something for everyone.A lot of pubs used to be working men's clubs,meaning that women could not usually enter.Today,however,women can freely enter 99% of pubs without experiencing any problems.Perhaps things are changing for the better after all.
Topic The 51.________ of British Pub Culture
The important 52.________ of churches and pubs in people's daily life in the UK People won't name an area unless there are a church and a pub.They are the places where people gather to 53.________ news.
The 54.______ for the decrease of the pub business ◆The credit decline is said to cause many pubs to 55.________ down.
◆Smoking is not 56.________ in all pubs,which may have had an effect on the business.
◆The government is trying hard to 57.________ binge drinking.
58.________ to save the business ◆Pubs are making 59.________ to meet the needs of the market.
◆As a woman in the UK nowadays,you can 60.________ a drink in almost all the pubs.
Conclusion Things are changing for the better probably from now on.
