26、When it comes to friends, I desire those who will share my happiness, who possess wings of their own and who will fly with me. I seek friends whose qualities illuminate（照亮）me and train me up for love. It is for these people that I reserve the glowing hours, too good not to share.

When I was in the eighth grade, I had a friend. We were shy and “too serious” about our studies when it was becoming fashionable with our classmates to learn acceptable social behaviors. We said little at school, but she would come to my house and we would sit down with pencils and paper, and one of us would say: “Let’s start with a train whistle today.” We would sit quietly together and write separate poems or stories that grew out of a train whistle. Then we would read them aloud. At the end of that school year, we, too, were changing into social creatures and the stories and poems stopped.

When I lived for a time in London, I had a friend. He was in despair (失望) and I was in despair. But our friendship was based on the idea in each of us that we would be sorry later if we did not explore this great city because we had felt bad at the time. We met every Sunday for five weeks and found many excellent things. We walked until our despairs disappeared and then we parted. We gave London to each other.

For almost four years I have had a remarkable friend whose imagination illuminates mine. We write long letters in which we often discover our strangest selves. Each of us appears, sometimes in a funny way, in the other’s dreams. She and I agree that, at certain times, we seem to be parts of the same mind. In my most interesting moments, I often think: “Yes, I must tell….”We have never met.

It is such comforting companions I wish to keep. One bright hour with their kind is worth more to me than the lifetime services of a psychologist（心理学家），who will only fill up the healing（愈合的）silence necessary to those darkest moments in which I would rather be my own best friend.

27、   I wandered into the small store where I usually buy milk，when the store owner received a call from a customer. The customer and his wife had shopped there several months earlier. He noticed that his wife really liked one thing in the store，so he wanted to buy it as a surprise.

But the customer was in Tennessee，far away from the store which was in Maine. What was more，he had been to the store several months earlier，and it was difficult to believe that the store owner would remember him，or what he was looking for.

The store owner took a few close-up photos with her camera，and e-mailed them to the customer on the computer. The customer looked at the photos，and decided which one he wanted. They talked and discussed a price over the phone. She took care of the credit card transaction (交易) online，and promised the gift would be shipped out that afternoon.

The store owner was really smart. She was willing to push herself to find new ways to make the transaction actually happen. And it did work. However，it was the first time she had ever done it.

I was amazed that the store owner discovered a creative solution that could lead to a new way of doing business. I was impressed by what she did—so easily，but how difficult it is for many of us to make that leap (飞跃). I'm not just talking about technology，but about learning how to adapt to change. Most people hate or fear change unless they get to know exactly what change needs to be made. However，we should realize that challenge and opportunity go hand in hand.

【1】According to the passage，which of the following is TRUE？

A.The customer had ever been to the store before.

【2】The author was impressed by the store owner because .

A.she was always ready to help others

B.she told the writer how to run a store

C.she managed to find a new way when facing change

D.she was a successful businesswoman

【3】What's the correct order of the store owner's solution？

a. e-mailing the photos to the customer on the computer

b. taking care of the credit card transaction online

c. taking a few close-up photos with her camera

d. talking about the price of the gift with the customer

A.bcda

B.abcd

C.cabd

D.cadb

【4】Which of the following words can best describe the store owner？

A.Tumorous

B.Creative

C.Confident

D.Honest

28、The Peales were a famous family of American artists. Charles Willson Peale is best remembered for his portraits of leading figures of the American Revolution. He painted portraits of Franklin and Jefferson and over a dozen of George Washington. His life-size portrait of his sons Raphaelle and Titian was so realistic that George Washington reportedly once tipped his hat to the figures in the picture.

Charles Willson Peale gave up painting in his middle age and devoted his life to the Peale museum, which he founded in Philadelphia. The world’s first popular museum of art and natural science mainly covered paintings by Peale and his family as well as displays of animals in their natural settings. Peale found the animals himself and found a method to make the exhibits more lifelike. The museum’s most popular display was the skeleton (骷髅) of a huge, extinct elephant, which Peale unearthed on a New York farm in 1801.

Three of Peale’s seventeen children were also famous artists. Raphaelle Peale often painted still lives of flowers, fruit, and cheese. His brother Rembrandt studied under his father and painted portraits of many noted people, including one of George Washington. Another brother, Rubens Peale, painted mostly landscapes and portraits.

James Peale, the brother of Charles Willson Peale, specialized in miniatures (小画像). His daughter Sarah Miriam Peale was probably the first professional female portrait painter in America.

29、Reading is a very good way to learn a new language and culture. 【1】

Firstly, it's important to choose a book which is the right level for you. If you are just starting out with English, don't try to read a 600­page classic novel! 【2】 So start with something at your own level. The more you read at your level the better you will get, and one day, you will be ready for something more difficult!

Secondly, although it's useful to have a dictionary at hand to look up words, I would suggest trying not to translate everything word for word. You will soon get bored of looking through the dictionary! 【3】 And accept that you are not going to understand every word. It will often be the case that the words you don't recognise are uncommon words that you will never use in your life!

Finally, perseverance (坚持) is important. At first it may seem that reading has become a boring task. 【4】 The feeling of finishing a book in a different language is very satisfying. If you finish one book, don't stop there! The more you read the more vocabulary you will learn and the more you will start to become familiar with sentence structures (结构) 【5】

A．It's better to use an online dictionary.

B．It will make you feel sad about your own level.

C．If you learn a new word, try to use it in a sentence.

D．If you enjoy reading, why not use it to help you learn English?
