Dear Ms. Librarian (图书管理员),

I don’t know if you still remember me. Perhaps you don’t. After all, I am only one of the many people, at one time or another, who you have helped.

I don’t remember your face as clearly as I wish I could, but I do remember how you looked at me. I was nine years old and standing at your desk, not for a book but for hope, for a path (道路) forward. 1. 我记得你带着微笑，温暖地看着我。I just felt I was safe staying with you.

You were always there—a kind, supportive lady. 2. When I asked you a question, you would do your best to answer it patiently. When I felt confused (困惑的) because life seemed to be harder than I had imagined it could be, I would go to you. You would always calm (使平静) me down by sharing your love for books with me. 3. You would always help me find way out.

4. 我不知道如何感谢你，但是我会尽力。Thank you for letting me understand that books can be like medicine. Thank you for knowing that sometimes, people come to you not for books at all. You are not just a librarian. You are also a carer, a social worker, a teacher, among the many other roles you have served in your time.

5. How lucky I was to meet you! It’s you who completely changed my life. I am grateful (感激的) for all the help you have offered.

24、   Making a good job choice is almost the same as choosing a good life. So, choosing a job is one of the most important decisions to make in life. For my job, there are three important things that I will consider.

The first one and also the most important one is that I must work in an area I like. If you find a job that you enjoy, then you won't feel that you're working at all. I would like to work in an area where I can be more creative. I would like to be the most important member there. All this is possible only if I like what I do.

The second one is that the area of my work must lead me to solve some new and hard problems. I would like to stay in the same area for a long time, so the work must provide enough problems. More than just working to live, I enjoy making a difference and trying my best to do it. In order to do that, I may spend more time and energy on my job, so I would also like to be well remunerated for my hard work. Then I can live a comfortable life with this hard﹣won money and provide the best for my family.

The third important thing is that I would like to work in an area that would help other people, such as the army, training or schools. In such areas, I can help to develop the abilities of others and bring out their best. It would be a satisfying job to help young people to become the best that they can be. When I become old, I would like to look back with a great sense of satisfaction that thousands of people have become better persons through my work.

All in all, everyone should keep trying his best and making many preparations to get the dream job. He should decide what he wants to be. Then, he should decide how he works towards it. He should study the proper courses, read the books and speak to knowledgeable persons in that field.

【1】According to the passage, making a good job choice probably means ________.

A.being a good family member B.choosing a good life

c. can help others become better

d. is near home

e. leads him to solve problems

【3】The underlined word "remunerated" in the passage means "________".

A.训练 B.尊敬 C.接受 D.酬劳

A.choosing a job is the most important decision to make in life

Paper cutting is a traditional Chinese art. Many people in China stick (粘贴) paper cuttings on their walls or their windows. The paper—cutter uses very simple tools, such as knives and scissors, to cut parts of the paper away. After these parts are cut away, a lovely picture of people or animals appears.

26、One day, a father was doing some work when his son came and asked, “Dad, can I ask you a question? How much do you make an hour?”

His father got a bit upset and replied, “Why do you ask such a thing?” The boy said, “I just want to know. Please tell me.” His father then said that he made about $50 an hour.

“Oh,” the little boy replied with his head down. Looking up, he said, “Dad, can I please borrow $30?” The father got angry and complained, “If the only reason you asked about my pay is that you can borrow some money to buy a useless toy, then you’d better go back to your room. I work hard every day and I do not like this rude behavior.”

The little boy quietly went to his room and closed the door. After about an hour or so, the man calmed down. He went to the boy’s room and opened the door. “Are you sleeping, son?” he asked. “No Dad, I’m awake,” the boy replied. “I’ve been thinking — maybe I was too hard on you earlier,” his father said. “Here’s the $30 you asked for.”

The little boy sat straight up with a smile. Then, reaching under his pillow, he took out $20 that he had hidden away. The man became furious and he wanted to teach his son a lesson. The little boy slowly counted out his money, then looked up at his father and said, “Dad, I have $50 now. Can I buy an hour of your time? Please come home early tomorrow. I would like to have dinner with you.”

Shocked and speechless, the father’s eyes turned red.

27、根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

American high school students usually spend about eight hours sleeping. And it often takes them eight hours to do school-related activities, including one hour for homework. 【1】?

Recently, a study about that came out. By the numbers, we can know American teenagers spend about seventy percent of that time watching TV, dressing up and so on. 【2】. Although teenagers need time to relax, do they need about six hours to relax? Probably the answer is not. For teenagers, they need to organize their free time properly to enrich (使充实) their life. 【3】.

When it comes to hobbies, they’re not compulsory (强制性的). We have seen all kinds of activities—including school clubs, sports and personal interests like reading, writing and playing music—as hobbies. Teenagers usually do them after school.

The study also shows that teenagers with hobbies are less likely to have high-risk actions, while teenagers without hobbies are more likely to drop out of school, smoke and have other bad behaviors (行为). 【4】. At the same time, they can enjoy themselves by doing what they like. In this way, they can use their time wisely.

【5】? If not, find something you love doing and keep doing it.

A．Do you have any friends

B．Do you have any hobbies

C．And developing good hobbies is a good choice

D．These activities are considered meaningless by adults

I’m a virus (病毒) for the common cold. It has been a long time since I infected (感染) humans last time. Today I tried to infect a boy in a primary school all day.

His name is Sam. I waited on his desktop, and when he touched the desk, I j【1】 on his finger. H【2】, Sam didn’t touch his eyes, mouth or nose. Then, right after class, he washed his hands. Now I’m f【3】 of soap and sitting in a sink!

Tuesday, January 22nd

This morning I jumped into the nose of Sam’s best friend, Bill. U【4】, the mucus (粘液) in his nose caught me. I thought it was over for me, when suddenly Bill sneezed while he was talking to Sam.

I knew that would s【5】 me right into Sam’s face! But Sam quickly gave Bill a tissue, and Bill sneezed into that i【6】! Infecting people is harder than I i【7】.

Wednesday, January 23rd

I tried to infect Sam again today, but he washed his hands five t【9】 and never touched his face. He also gave tissues to every student in his class who was sneezing. It’s i【10】 to give him a cold! So I have to give up and I’m moving to another school.
