a. the doctor helped to take the paper ball out of the boys nose. b. may succeeded in taking the paper out. c. the boys mother found some black pepper to solve the problem. d. the boy had to have his nose cut at last.38. the boy should be taken to the seaside for a swim because _. a. he needed to learn to swim b. the sea water would stop the bad smell of his nose. c. the sea water would wash out the paper ball. d. he needed a rest in the united states, when one becomes rich, he wants people to know it. and even if he does not become very rich, he wants people to think that he is. that is what “keeping up with the joneses” is about. it is the story of someone who tried to look as rich as his neighbours. the expression was first used in 1913 by a young american called arthur momand. he told this story about himself. he began earning $ 125 a week at the age of 23. that was a lot of money in those days. he got married and moved with his wife to a very wealthy neighbourhood outside new york city. when he saw that rich people rode horses, momand went horseback riding every day. when he saw that rich people had servants, momand and his wife also hired a servant and gave big parties for their new neighbours. it was like a race, but one could never finish his race because one was always trying to keep up. the race ended for momand and his wife when they could no longer pay for their new way of life. they moved back to an apartment in new york city. momand looked around him and noticed that many people do things just to keep up with rich lifestyle of their neighbours. he saw the funny side of it and started to write a series of short stories. he called it “keeping up with the joneses” because “jones” is a very common name in the united states. “keeping up with the joneses” came to mean keeping up with rich lifestyle of the people around you. momands series appeared in different newspapers across the country for over 28 years. people never seem to get tired of keeping up with the joneses. and there are “jonses” in every city of the world. but one must get tired of trying to keep up with the joneses because no matter what one does, mr. jones always seems to be ahead.39. some people want to keep up with the joneses because they _.a. want to be as rich as their neighbours b. want others to know or to think that they are richc. dont want others to know they are rich d. want to be happy40. it can be inferred from the story that rich people like to _.a. live outside new york city b. live in new york cityc. live in apartments d. have many neighbours41. arthur momand used the name “jones” in his series of short stories because “jones” is _.a. an important name b. a popular name in the united statesc. his neighbours name d. not a good name42. according to the writer, it is _ to keep up with the joneses.a. correct b. interesting c. impossible d. good the word “death” is a word many chinese friends tell me i should not say aloud. they advise me to avoid the word because only speaking of it may bring ill fortune. i deeply believe, however, that to know how to live, we must also know how to die. the problem is how do we talk about death? like everyone in taiwan this week, i have had “tomb sweeping day”. i am proud to be part of a people whose culture sends millions of families to cemeteries on this special day to share memories and endless love. today, eight days after the death of pope john paul ii, millions of people of all backgrounds still grieve(悲痛) his passing away. he was a deeply human person who knew how to laugh and show emotions, a writer with a gift for words ，a leader who appealed to us by the sheer light of his love for life. on the same day and only hours before the holy father left us, a friend of mine named veronica mcbride died of cancer in a small wisconsin city. my friend veronica was 52 years old. she was an attractive, humorous young woman who, as the saying goes, “never married”. she published several humor books with her mother, mary mcbride. she enjoyed traveling, and for years sent christmas card photos of herself standing beside monuments or odd animals. she fought cancer for five years. she joked about her treatment keeping her pretty because it kept her thin, and told me she didnt mind losing her hair because of chemo therapy. “i get to wear nice wigs!（假發(fā)）” the last time i saw veronica was when i visited her family on a sunny day in august in 2003. when she burst into the front door later and saw me in the living room, she ignored me completely in her hurry to hug her newest baby nephew, leaving me shaking my head in laughter at her. as we look to the significance of the holy father and his life, surely we must also keep our eyes open to see the wonder and goodness in ordinary people who show us how to live and how to die.64. the purpose of the article is _. a. to memorize his friend veronica b. to talk about the significance of life and death c. to teach us how to face life and death d. to compare his friend and the holy father pope john paul ii65. the underlined phrase “chemo therapy” in paragraph 4 probably means _. a. a medical treatment b. a kind of cancer c. a kind of medicine d. the newest machine66. why does the writer compare the holly father with his friend? a. because they are both the persons he admires. b. because they have a lot in common. c. because he wants to show that ordinary people can be great as well. d. because he wants to memorize them both.67. from the phrase “burst into”, we can see that veronica is _.a. brave b. sportive c. humorous d. energetic*結(jié)束 wherever she goes, molly leaves her mark. without saying a word, she speaks to people with her kind eyes. even when she walks away, she leaves an impressionmollys mark is a smile, stamped into the ground by the horseshoe at the bottom of her false lega few years ago, molly was badly attacked by a dogthe dog bit all four of mollys legs and left large cuts in her face. mollys owner, kate harris, took her to an animal hospitaldoctors there were able to save mollys life, but soon one of her legs became very infected(感染). at first, doctors thought molly would have to be put to sleep foreverbut molly changed their minds. this pony, doctors noticed, shifted her weight, and rested her good leg from time to time. doctors knew that molly had amazing intelligence, and that she wanted to live. several doctors operated on molly, and removed her infected leg. a false leg was made for her. the leg was a hollow cast with a pole at the bottom for balance. doctors gave molly a special horseshoe at the bottom of the leg. this horseshoe she had had a stamp of a smile face in it! after the operation, molly walked around on all four legs, as if nothing had ever happened to her! now, with every step she takes, she stamps a smile in the dirtbut she leaves her mark in other ways, too.kaye harris took molly to the false leg center. there were children there,who like molly, had artificial arms or legs. they were amazed to see a pony with a false leg. molly made them smile and gave them hope. soon, molly began to visit schools, nursing homes, army bases and hospitals. a book was even written about molly!56molly is the name of a _. . adogbhorsecparentdchild57which of the following is true according to the text?

to see whether babies know objects are solid, t. bower designed a method for projecting an optical illusion (視覺影像) of a hanging ball. his plan was to first give babies a real ball, one they could reach out and touch, and then to show them the illusion. if they knew that objects are solid and they reached out for the illusion and found empty air, they could be expected to show surprise in their faces and movements. all the 16-to 24- week -old babies tested were surprised when they reached for the illusion and found that the ball was not there. grown-ups also have a sense of object permanence. we know that if we put a box in a room and lock the door, the box w
