17、2 , I never lost hope. Instead I tried to think of other 43 and told him not to worry because everything would be all right.

25、e to earn enormous salaries and many of them choose to share the wealth they have by donating to charities.Ron Artest This NBA Lakers forward is planning to auction his 2010 championship ring online in an effort to raise money for mental-health problems in schools. He has also been publicly consider

26、ing donating at least half of his salary for the 2011-2012 year.Steve Nash The Phoenix Suns player has a foundation bearing his name. It was started in 2001, and provides funds for children who are less fortunate in health, education and personal growth. The charity also focuses efforts on the commu

27、nity overall.Tiger Woods The pro-golfer has continued to make charitable donations despite the trouble in his personal life. His foundation sent $3 million to Haiti following the earthquake that destroyed the region. Woods also donated $100,000 to assist with the tsunami in 2004 and $ 200,000 went t

28、o the needy affected by Hurricane Katrina.Hannah Teter The Olympic snowboarding champion joined with other athletes for the charity Children International. She has been a part of the humanitarian (人道主义的) group since 2007 and along with Gabi Viteri, a Burton Team Snowboarder, she traveled to Guadalaj

29、ara, Mexico, to understand the needs of the school children there and how they can help. Hannah has helped improve the lives of many poor children.Lance Armstrong The professional cyclist and survivor of cancer created a foundation to help those affected by the disease as well. Funds are raised by c

30、yclist, volunteers and cancer survivors, who appeals to local communities for donations. The funds are used to give hope to cancer sufferers and help them in all stages of dealing with the disease.Perhaps the generosity displayed by these athletes will inspire others to join them in helping the less

31、 fortunate. BThe Hunan Satellite TV(HNTV) show “Where are we going, Dad?” is a big hit. Many famous stars brought their children to a strange village alone, and they had to spend 72 hours with their children there. The program fully showed us a modern version of the “how to be a good father”. As the

32、 young parents today are too busy to take care of their children, this new form of “Lost on the way” played by nanny Daddy and cute kids triggered（触发）a lot of peoples emotional resonance（共鸣）. Both the kids and their parents will find that their hearts are being drawn closer. But this kind of feeling

33、 has just proved that there is a big spiritual barrier between the modern parents and children. The TV shows like “Children are hard to support!”, “Where are we going, Dad?”, “hot mom” and “cute kids” are becoming more and more popular. All of these show the new parents confusion in childrens educat

34、ion and the appeal for the balance between career and family.In real life, on the one hand the young parents feel helpless because they are too busy to accompany their children under the pressures of work and life; on the other hand they continue to do so. The data collected by HNTV shows that nearl

35、y two-thirds of their audience are female, among whom 36% are aged from 25 to 34.We can imagine such a scene that one evening a young mother is watching the show with her young children, while her husband is still at work or trapped in socializing, or maybe is just playing computer games in the bedr

36、oom. The story of a child without the company of father is still going on. In fact, it is sometimes the same to mothers. In a modern family, it is often the old who take the responsibility of raising a child. The participation of mother in the childrens education is also very low.It is just this kin

37、d of confusion where the parents have gone in the modern family education, and where the parents will guide their children to go that “Where are we going，Dad?” shows us. If a child wants to grow up healthily and safely into a modern citizen with independent personality and free spirit, it is very im

38、portant for him or her to follow the parents who serve as their first teacher. Maybe this is the real reason why such kind of TV programs could get hot. The truth is that children will go where their parents go; and society will go where the children go.58. Which of the following can be inferred in

39、the passage?A. Parents shouldnt entirely leave the education of children to the old.B. 36% of the audience of the program are female aged from 25-34.C. The program shows us the confusion where the parents and children will go to play.D. In a modern family it is often mothers who are responsible for

40、raising a child.59. Which one is the best title of the passage?A. Confusion Behind “Where are we going, dad?”B. Modern Education is ImportantC. Nanny Daddy and Cute KidsD. New problems in Modern Childrens Education60. What attitude towards modern family education does the author express in the secon

41、d paragraph? A. Proud. B. Worried. C. Optimistic. D. Indifferent.CDear Malia and Sasha, I know that youve both had a lot of fun these last two years on the campaign trail, going to picnics and parades and state fairs, eating all sorts of junk food your mother and I probably shouldnt have let you hav

42、e. But I also know that it hasnt always been easy for you and Mom, and that as excited as you both are about that new puppy, it doesnt make up for all the time weve been apart. I know how much Ive missed these past two years, and today I want to tell you a little more about why I decided to take our

43、 family on this journey. When I was a young man, I thought life was all about meabout how Id make my way in the world, become successful, and get the things I want. But then the two of you came into my world with all your curiosity and mischief and those smiles that never fail to fill my heart and l

44、ight up my day. And suddenly, all my big plans for myself didnt seem so important anymore. I soon found that the greatest joy in my life was the joy I saw in yours. And I realized that my own life wouldnt count for much unless I was able to ensure that you had every opportunity for happiness and ful

45、fillment in yours. In the end, girls, thats why I ran for President: because of what I want for you and for every child in this nation. I want all our children to go to schools worthy of their potentialschools that challenge them, inspire them, and instill in them a sense of wonder about the world a

46、round them. I want them to have the chance to go to collegeeven if their parents arent rich. And I want them to get good jobs: jobs that pay well and give them benefits like health care, jobs that let them spend time with their own kids and retire with dignity. I want us to push the boundaries of di

47、scovery so that youll live to see new technologies and inventions that improve our lives and make our planet cleaner and safer. And I want us to push our own human boundaries to reach beyond the divides of race and region, gender and religion that keep us from seeing the best in each other. Sometime

48、s we have to send our young men and women into war and other dangerous situations to protect our countrybut when we do, I want to make sure that it is only for a very good reason, that we try our best to settle our differences with others peacefully, and that we do everything possible to keep our se

49、rvicemen and women safe. And I want every child to understand that the blessings these brave Americans fight for are not freethat with the great privilege of being a citizen of this nation comes great responsibility. That was the lesson your grandmother tried to teach me when I was your age, reading

50、 me the opening lines of the Declaration of Independence and telling me about the men and women who marched for equality because they believed those words put to paper two centuries ago should mean something. She helped me understand that America is great not because it is perfect but because it can

51、 always be made betterand that the unfinished work of perfecting our union falls to each of us. Its a charge we pass on to our children, coming closer with each new generation to what we know America should be. I hope both of you will take up that work, righting the wrongs that you see and working t

52、o give others the chances youve had. Not just because you have an obligation to give something back to this country that has given our family so muchalthough you do have that obligation. But because you have an obligation to yourself. Because it is only when you hitch your wagon to something larger

53、than yourself that you will realize your true potential. These are the things I want for youto grow up in a world with no limits on your dreams and no achievements beyond your reach, and to grow into compassionate, committed women who will help build that world. And I want every child to have the sa

54、me chances to learn and dream and grow and thrive that you girls have. Thats why Ive taken our family on this great adventure. I am so proud of both of you. I love you more than you can ever know. And I am grateful every day for your patience, poise, grace, and humor as we prepare to start our new l

59、s not being able to stay together with them for such a long time.DJohn Blanchard stood up from the bench, straightened his Army uniform, and studied the crowd of people making their way through Grand Central Station. He looked for the girl whose heart he knew, but whose face he didnt , the girl with

60、 the rose.His interest in her had begun thirteen months before in a Florida library. Taking a book off the shelf he found himself intrigued, not with the words of the book, but with the notes penciled in the margin. The soft handwriting reflected a thoughtful soul and insightful mind. In the front o

61、f the book, he discovered the previous owners name, Miss Hollis Maynell. With time and effort he located her address. She lived in New York City. He wrote her a letter introducing himself and inviting her to correspond. The next day he was shipped overseas for service in World War II.During the next

62、 year and one month the two grew to know each other through the mail. Each letter was a seed falling on a fertile heart. A romance was starting Blanchard requested a photograph, but she refused. She felt that if he really cared, it wouldnt matter what she looked like.When the day finally came for hi

63、m to return from Europe, they scheduled their first meeting 7:00 PM at the Grand Central Station in New York. “Youll recognize me,” she wrote, “by the red rose Ill be wearing on my lapel.” So at 7:00 he was in the station looking for a girl whose heart he loved, but whose face hed never seen.Ill let

64、 Mr. Blanchard tell you what happened: A young woman was coming toward me, her figure long and slim. Her blonde hair lay back in curls from her delicate ears; her eyes were blue as flowers. Her lips and chin had a gentle firmness, and in her pale green suit she was like springtime come alive. I star

65、ted her , entirely forgetting to notice that she was not wearing a rose. As I moved, a small, attractive smile curved her lips. “Going my way , sailor?” she murmured.Almost uncontrollably I made one step closer to her, and then I saw Hollis Maynell. She was standing almost directly behind the girl.

66、A woman well past 40, she had graying hair tucked under a worn hat. She was more than plump, her thick-ankled feet thrust into low-heeled shoes. The girl in the green suit was walking quickly away. I felt as though I was split in two, so keen was my desire to follow her, and yet so deep was my longi

67、ng for the woman whose spirit had truly companioned me and upheld my own.And there she stood. Her pale, plump face was gentle and sensible, her gray eyes had a warm and kindly twinkle. I did not hesitate. My fingers gripped the small worn blue leather copy of the book that was to identify me to her.

68、This would not be love, but it would be something precious, something perhaps even better than love, a friendship for which I had been and must ever be grateful. I squared my shoulders and saluted and held out the book to the woman, even though while I spoke I felt choked by the bitterness of my dis

69、appointment. Im Lieutenant John Blanchard, and you must be Miss Maynell. I am so glad you could meet me; may I take you to dinner? The womans face broadened into a tolerant smile. I dont know what this is about, son, she answered, but the young lady in the green suit who just went by, she begged me

70、to wear this rose on my coat. And she said if you were to ask me out to dinner, I should go and tell you that she is waiting for you in the big restaurant across the street. She said it was some kind of test! Its not difficult to understand and admire Miss Maynells wisdom. The true nature of a heart

71、 is seen in its response to the unattractive. Tell me whom you love, Houssaye wrote, And I will tell you who you are. 65. How did John Blanchard get to know Miss Hollis Maynell?A. They lived in the same city. B. They were both interested in literature. C. John knew Holliss name from a library book.

74、 in a place where you are hunting for a new job or career, you will find that there are several things that you should pay attention to.

89、成汉语。）Attitude Makes the differencesDo you know? Theres a choice we make times everyday over and over again. And its the choice that decides so much about our life. (91) Someone said, “Life is 10% what happens to us and 90% how we choose to react to it.” And the attitude we choose to have everyday is

90、 what makes the difference between our being happy and successful or not. You know, our attitude is more important than whats happened in our past.

So he chose for the remaining years of his life to be happy and make his family happy.You know, there are some things in life we simply cannot change or control, like certain disease, laws, the

94、weather and other drivers on the road. We cannot control other peoples attitude toward us, but we can always control our own attitude! And friend, your attitude everyday makes all the difference in the world to your life. So no matter how bad things get, you still can choose to either let it make you bitter, or let it make you better.
