  10 小题，每小题 1 分，共 10 分 )

     Read the two passages and answer the questions. (10 points)

Passage 1
  Is American society full of untouchables? From my own experiences, I would say no. In fact, it never even occurred to me that some people might be annoyed by a friendly pat on the shoulder. But after our discussion about this in class the other day, I visited several friends on the matter. My family and I seem to be somewhat in the minority.

  For example, my family, while not being made up of the greatest cheek-kissers, has always been very generous with hugs, hand squeezes, arm-in-arm walks, and comforting shoulder pats. All of this is spontaneous. Nobody has ever said to me, “ Now, Linda, go kiss your Aunt Ada. ” It just so happened I thought enough of my Aunt Ada to want to kiss her now and then when she had been especially nice. When Dad introduces me to anyone, he always has that big protective arm right around my shoulders that tells me he is proud of me far better than his words could.

 I wouldn ’ t think of walking into Grandma ’ s house without grabbing both of her hands in a tight squeeze and smiling into her eyes so that she can get a good look at her granddaughter.

 My husband and I went bowling with my cousin and his wife the other night, and he often threw his arm around my shoulders or Virg ’ s as we visited. I didn ’ t think that was queer at all. In fact, I thought it was very sweet the way he has accepted Virg in the family.

  How comforting it was to have my aunt ’ s arm around me after my Grandpa ’ s funeral! She knew how very close we were, and her words would never have been warm and understanding as that arm was.

   Several people I talked to about this had different thoughts. One lady I work with said she didn ’ t like people “ pawing ” her. A girlfriend said she had no reservations about kissing her husband, but couldn ’ t kiss her parents, although she wished she could.

  My answer to that would be for heaven ’ s sake TRY!!! Don ’ t regret it later that you didn ’ t. I was uneasy about going into a swimming pool for the first time, and even after that first step was taken, it was a long time before I felt comfortable in my role as a swimmer. Now I love to swim and I think what a loss it would have been if I had been afraid to try, then follow through. I think the analogy holds for life. If you want to be more affectionate with your loved ones, just try, and keep at it. Soon it may become so natural you will wonder what all the fuss was about.

  Don ’ t be like my cousin Jo, who loved her father dearly but just couldn ’ t show it. When she was 18, she finally brought herself to kiss him, but it was too late; he was in his coffin, unable to feel the delightful sense of touch the living have to share, if we only will.

51. What does the passage mainly discuss?

   A. It encourages people to use physical touches more often.

   B. It describes her family and their relationships.

  C. It deals with the skills of greeting people.

   D. It briefly introduces different fashions of greeting each other.

52. When the writer says “ My family and I seem to be somewhat in the minority ” , he means ______.

   B. The writer and her family always support small teams

   A. Her Grandma has long been dead.

Passage 2
   The day I met Hani, she was a shy, seventeen-year-old girl standing alone in the parking lot of the international school in Indonesia, where I teach English. The school is expensive and does not accept Indonesian students. She walked up to me and asked if I could help her improve her English. I could tell it took immense courage for the young Indonesian girl in worn clothing to approach me and ask for my help.

   “ Why do you want to improve your English? ” I asked her, fully expecting her to talk about finding a job in a local hotel.

   “ I want to go to an American university, ” she said with quiet confidence. Her idealistic dream made me want to cry.

   I agreed to work with her after school each day on a volunteer basis. For the next several months, Hani woke each morning at five and caught the city bus to her public high school. During the one-hour ride, she studied for her regular classes and prepared the English lessons I had given her the day before. At four o ’ clock in the afternoon, she arrived at my classroom, exhausted but ready to work. With each passing day, as Hani struggled with college-level English, I grew more fond of her. She worked harder than most of my wealthy students.

   Hani lived in a two-room house with her parents and two brothers. Her father was a worker and her mother was a maid. I learned that their combined yearly income was 750 U.S. dollars. It wasn ’ t enough to meet the expenses of even one month in an American university. Hani ’ s enthusiasm was increasing with her language ability, but I was becoming more and more discouraged.

   One morning in December 1998, I received the announcement of a scholarship opportunity for a major American university. I tore open the envelope and studied the requirements. It wasn ’ t long before I realized that there was just no way for Hani to meet the qualifications.

    When Hani came into the classroom the next day, I told her of the scholarship. I also told her that I believed there was no way for her to apply. I encouraged her to be realistic. However, Hani remained firm.

 “ Will you send in my name? ” she asked.

   I didn ’ t have the heart to turn her down. I completed the application, filling in each blank with the painful truth about her academic life, but also with my praise of her courage and her perseverance. I sealed up the envelope and told Hani her chances for acceptance was next to none.

  In the weeks that followed, Hani increased her study of English, and I arranged for her to take the Test of English Fluency in Jakarta. The entire computerized test would be a challenge for someone who had never before touched a computer. For two weeks, we studied computer parts and how they worked. Then, just before Hani went to Jakarta. she received a letter from the scholarship association, What a cruel time for the rejection to arrive, I thought. Trying to prepare her for disappointment, I opened the letter and began to read it to her. She had been accepted.

  I leaped about the room excitedly. Hani stood by, smiling quietly. The image of her face at the moment came back to me again and again in the following week. I realized that I had learned something Hani had known from the beginning: It is not intelligence alone that brings success, but also the drive to succeed, the commitment to work hard and the courage to believe in yourself.

56. When the writer learned about Hani ’ s dream, she wanted to cry because______.

   A. the school did not enroll Indonesian students

   B. she thought the girl ’ s English was not good enough

   C. she thought it was impossible for Hani to realize her dream

   D. Hani ’ s family could not afford the tuition

57. When Hani arrived at the writer ’ s classroom, she ______.

   A. was tired out but eager to learn

   B. was eager to learn but not well prepared

   C. had to take a one-hour bus ride to her high school

   D. had to study for her regular classes

58. When the writer received the application form for a scholarship, she______.

    A. threw away the letter in despair

    B. encouraged Hani to apply

    C. poured cold water on Hani

    D. tore the letter into pieces

59. When the writer received the reply letter, she was sure that______.

    A. Hani ’ s application was insufficient

    B. Hani ’ s application for scholarship was rejected

    C. the university had accepted Hani

    D. the university wanted more information about Hani

    B. wisdom, good luck and determination

    C. intelligence, opportunity and wealth
