I was in a rush as always, but this time it was for an important date I just couldn’t be late for! I found myself at a checkout counter behind an elderly woman seemingly in no hurry as she paid for her groceries. A PhD student with not a lot of money, I had hurried into the store to pick up some flowers. I was in a huge rush, thinking of my upcoming evening. I did not want to be late for this date.
We were in Boston, a place not always known for small conversation between strangers. The woman stopped unloading her basket and looked up at me. She smiled. It was a nice smile –warm and reassuring—and I returned her gift by smiling back.
“Must be a special lady, whoever it is that will be getting those beautiful flowers,” she said.
“Yes, she’s special,” I said, and then to my embarrassment, the words kept coming out.
“It’s only our second date, but somehow I am just having the feeling she’s ‘the one’. Jokingly, I added, “The only problem is that I can’t figure out why she’d want to date a guy like me.”
“Well, I think she’s very lucky to have a boyfriend who brings her such lovely flowers and who is obviously in love with her,” the woman said.” “My husband used to bring me flowers every week –even when times were tough and we didn’t have much money. Those were incredible days; he was very romantic and – of course – I miss him since he’s passed away.”
I paid for my flowers as she was gathering up her groceries. There was no doubt in my mind as I walked up to her. I touched her on the shoulder and said, “You were right, you know. These flowers are indeed for a very special lady.” I handed her the flowers and thanked her for such a nice conversation.
It took her a moment to realize that I was giving her the flowers I had just purchased. “You have a wonderful evening,” I said. I left her with a big smile and my heart warmed as I saw her smelling the beautiful flowers.
I remember being slightly late for my date that night and telling my girlfriend the above story. A couple of years later, when I finally worked up the courage to ask her to marry me, she told me that this story had helped to seal it for her –that was the night that I won her heart.
小題1:Why was the writer in a hurry that day?

A．He was to meet his girlfriend.	B．He had to go back to school soon.
C．He was delayed by an elderly lady.	D．He had to pick up some groceries.

小題2:What does the underlined phrase “her gift”(Paragraph 2) refer to?

A．Her words.

B．Her smile.

C．Her flowers.

D．her politeness.

小題3:Why did the writer give his flowers to the elderly lady?

A．She told him a nice story.	B．She allowed him to pay first.
C．She gave him encouragement.	D．She liked flowers very much.

小題4:What is the message conveyed in the story?

A．Flowers are important for a date.	B．Small talk is helpful.
C．Love and kindness are rewarding.	D．Elderly people deserve respecting.

小題1:Ａ
小題2:Ｂ
小題3:Ｃ
小題4:Ｃ

小題1:細節判斷題。由第一段第一句的關鍵詞,date；及最后一段girlfriend可知答案是A.
小題2:詞義猜測題。由"She smiled.——I retuned her gift by smiling back."一句得知答案，選B選項。
小題3:推理理解題。由文中"The only problem is that I can't figure out why she'd want to date a guy like me." 暗示作者當時的不自信；后來年長女士說 "Well, I think she's very lucky to have a boyfriend who brings her such lovely flowers and who is obviously in love with her,"的話，前后對比，極大地增強了作者的自信心而給了他很大的鼓舞，選C。
小題4:推理判斷題。此處句意為女店主——鼓舞——作者——花贈與了女店主——做法又感動其女友——女友嫁給他；由此看出回報之意，所以找準關鍵詞"回報"，選C。

Twelve years age I flew from my home in Minnesota to spend Father’s Day with my father in California. This wasn’t a typical Father’s Day visit, but to say goodbye to my father as his cancer rapidly advanced. We hadn’t had much of a relationship up to that day and never did much talking. He wasn’t verbal (善用言詞辭的) or demonstrative (易流露感情的) nor was I. I knew he loved me simply because fathers love their children. He never told me he loved me and I never told him. That’s the way we did things in our house.
My father told me a bit about his career growth from a poor boy to a very successful businessman. He had got a lot through his hard work. He had reasons to be proud of what he had done and I had the benefit of his success. “Maybe I didn’t do things right. I never really knew you or your brothers. I did what I thought was right.” This visit didn’t change our ways. We shook hands and said goodbye as I left. Our relationship ended as we lived it.
As a father for more than 14 years I look back and understand why I am staying at home full-time with my children. I tell my children I love them every day, I hug them and I talk with them and let them know how important they are to me. However, as much as we would like to believe that we are all ideal fathers but we are not. We all made mistakes and hopefully we learned from them, just as I learned from my father.

A. He wanted to wish his father a happy Father’s Day.

Have you ever had the strange feeling that you were being watched? You turned around and, sure enough, someone was looking right at you!
Parapsychologists（靈學家）say that humans have a natural ability to sense when someone is looking at them. To research whether such a “sixth sense” really exists, Robert Baker, a psychologist（心理學家）at the University of Kentucky, performed two experiments.
In the first one, Baker sat behind unknowing people in public places and stared at the backs of their heads for 5 to 15 minutes. The subjects（受試者）were eating, drinking, reading studying, watching TV, or working at a computer. Baker made sure that the people could not tell that he was sitting behind them during those periods. Later, when he questioned the subjects, almost all of them said they had no sense that someone was staring at them.
For the second experiment, Baker told the subjects that they would be stared at from time to time from behind a two way mirror in a laboratory setting. The people had to write down when they felt they were being stared at and when they weren’t. Baker found that the subjects were no better at telling when they were stared at and when they weren’t. Baker found that the subjects were no better at telling when they were started at than if they had just guessed.
Baker concludes that people do not have the ability to sense when they’re being stared at. If people doubt the outcome of his two experiments, said Baker, “I suggest they repeat the experiments and see for themselves.”
68. The purpose of the two experiments is to        .
A. explain when people can have a sixth sense
B. show how people act while being watched in the lab
C. study whether humans can sense when they are stared at
D. prove why humans have a sixth sense
69. In the first experiment, the subjects       .
A. were not told that they would be stared at
B. lost their sense when they were stared at
C. were not sure when they would be stared at
D. were uncomfortable when they were stared at
70. The underlined word “outcome” in the last paragraph most probably means      .
A. value B. result C. performance      D. connection
71. What can be learned from the passage?
A. People are born with a sixth sense.
B. The experiments support parapsychologists’ idea.
C. The subjects do not have a sixth sense in the experiments.
D. People have a sixth sense in public places.

When someone steps on your toe by accident, you will hurt plenty．But it hurts even more, if you think the person does the same thing on purpose．Earlier studies have found that the feeling of pain can change with how it is experienced．That is why giving people sugar pills and saying they are medicine can make them feel better．
This study examined whether self-reported pain is indeed higher when the events producing the pain are understood as intentionally caused by another person．For the study, the researchers told 40 volunteers that they were going to do a series of tasks, including color matching, number counting and discomfort assessment．This last task involved their receiving a brief electric shock to the wrist．They were told that a partner, sitting in another room, would choose which task they would do, and a computer screen helped them to know their partner’s choice．
In some cases, the volunteers were told their partner had chosen the pain tolerance test．In others, they were told the computers would select the pain tolerance test regardless of their partner’s choice．When volunteers thought that their partners were making the shocks on them on purpose, the feeling made the pain worse．As a matter of fact, they were the same．
This study provides evidence that the experience of pain changes depending upon how they think when people have been harmed．Specifically, the meaning of a harm — whether it was intended — influences the amount of pain it causes．So, although a broken toe may hurt, an intentionally broken toe should hurt more．
小題1:It can be concluded from the text that _______．

A．the feeling of pain varies from one person to another

B．long-lasting pain damages people’s health

C．pain is greater if harm seems to be intentionally done

D．people suffer more from accidental pain

小題2:What can we infer from the text?

A．People can reduce pain by relaxing．

B．Researchers study how pain is caused．

C．Everyone should know the effect of pain．

D．People should think more about pain．

小題3:What does the underlined word “they” in the third paragraph refer to?

A．Volunteers．	B．Computers．
C．Shocks．	D．Pains．

小題4:What’s the author’s attitude to the result of the study?

A．Indifferent．	B．Sceptical．
C．Disapproving．	D．Approving．

Recently divorced in my 30s, I had no job and was on my way downtown on a rainy day to go to the employment offices. I had no umbrella, for my old one had   21  apart, and I couldn’t afford another one.
I sat down in the streetcar — there against the   22  was a beautiful silk umbrella with a silver handle inlaid with gold and bright enamel(琺瑯). I had never seen anything so lovely. I
23  the handle and saw a name on it. The   24  procedure would have been to turn in the umbrella to the conductor, but I decided to take it and find the   25  myself.
I got off the streetcar in a downpour and   26  opened the umbrella to protect myself. Then I searched a telephone book for the   27  on the umbrella and found it. I called and a lady answered. Yes, she said in   28 , that was her umbrella, which her parents, now dead, had given her as a birthday present, but it’d been   29  from her locker at school years before.
She was so excited that I forgot I was looking for a job and went   30  to her house. She took the umbrella, her eyes filled with tears. I was only too happy to see her get back the lost umbrella, and get a job she offered me.
