From my earliest memories, I felt as if my mother was preparing me for something special. When entering a room, her entire focus was on me. I felt as if I was the center of her universe great feeling. Offering her the same respect, I attentively listened to her stories without interrupting； I tried to return that feeling of being truly loved.
Even though there was always deep affection flowing between us, she wasn* t a softy. She worked hard and expected her children to do the same. I began working in our little comer grocery store by age eight and managed it by the age of twelve. She appreciated my hard work and treated me as an equal. I learned that I could do anything if I tried hard enough.
I learned to depend on myself.
My mother always supported my decisions, but also shared her concerns. When I decided to retire early from teaching to teach and write about etiquette (礼仪）,she announced her concerns. She worried that there wasn’t a market for it-ray mother, always the business person. However, by the end of our conversation she encouraged me with aWith your training and love of people, you are perfect for this.”
By example, my mother taught me how to show respect for others. She gave me my listening skills, my sympathy and my manners. Through her, I learned to be strongs to follow my heart and to work hard. I never give up. If not for this, I wouldn, t be a successful business
owner and good friend to all. •—

When was the last time someone did something unexpectedly nice for you? Not someone
you knew, but a total stranger? It’s happened to me a few times, but two instances really stand out.
A few years ago, I was dining out with a person who kept going on and on about himself, completely unaware of the fact that I was sitting there in unhappiness. It ^rasn ’ t his company that disappointed me. I was recovering from a bad grade in my study. I could have colapsed(崩溃)in tears right there at the table.
When we picked up the check, the waitress said, “Your meal was already paid for.” My friend and I didn, t have an idea how it happened. Then I remembered a man coining in out of the comer of my eye. He was dressed in mostly white, sat down at the bar, had a glass of wine, stayed for maybe ten minutes and then left. The waitress said, “Yes, the gentleman who was in here a while ago paid for you.
Just last year, I was running a half-marathon. With just 0.1 miles to go, I was out of gas. Runners call it “hitting the wall” ； I thought I couldn* t move another muscle. Out of nowhere, a teenager jogged up next to me and said, “What，s your name, sweetie? Jennifer? Okay, Jennifer, let’s go! Come on! It, s just around the comer! You can do it!” And he ran with me until I picked up my pace. I found him at the finish line to thank him for the encouragement only to learn he wasn, t even supposed to be in the race that day. He was running in place of someone else.
I still shake my head when I think of these momentary angels, that came to me at my point of need. Do you have any experiences like this?
28.Why did the author say she was in unhappiness?
A.Because she got into trouble with her friend.
B.Because she couldn’t enjoy her meal quietly.
C.Because her friend complained so much.
D.Because she was doing poorly in her study.
29.What do you think of the man paying for the meal?
A.He was generous and warm-hearted.
B.He knew the author well and always helped her.
C.He showed his kindness to his girlfriend.
D.He liked making fun of others.
30.We can infer from the last paragraph that the author .
A.still can ’t believe her experience today
B.feels grateful for the help she received
C.thinks everyone is an angel
D.often helps those in need
31.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?

D
A study showed a 12% drop in the first year after the law to stop smoking in enclosed(封闭的)public _ces came into force. The author says there is growing evidence that many people are choosing smoke-free homes as well.
Asthma (哮喘病）UK says the findings are “encouraging”. Presenting their findings in the journal Pediatrics, they said the number of children admitted to hospital with severe asthma attacks was rising by more than 2 % a year before the restrictions were introduced in July 2007. Taking that into account, they calculated the fall in admissions in the next 12 months was 12%, and a further 3% in each of the following two years. The fall was seen among boys and girls of all ages, across wealthy and poor neighborhoods, in cities and in rural areas.
In the past, much of the argument on the smoke-free law centred on protection of bar workers from passive smoke. At the time many critics said smokers would respond by lighting up more at home-harming the health of their families.
In fact, more people are insisting on smoke—free homes. We increasingly think it’s because people see the benefits of smoke-free laws in public places such as restaurants and they want to carry out them. This benefits children because they’ re less likely to be exposed to second-hand smoke. ^ .
These findings reinforce (强化)evidence on the effect of smoke-free, law from studies in North America and Scotland, which also showed a fall in hospital admissions for children with severe asthma attacks. The law in England has also resulted in fewer admissions for heart attacks.
Emily Humphreys from Asthma UK said the need now was to do more to prevent young peo-ple from taking up smoking.
32.After the smoke-free law was introduced into England,-
A. more children developed asthma
B. smokers lighted up more at home
C.children could also enjoy its benefits
D. workers suffered from passive smoke
33.The smoke-free law in England also reduced the risk of developing •
A.a high fever
B.a terrible headache
C.stomach cancer
D.a heart attack
34. According to Emily, now they need to
A.prevent tobacco from being sold
B.prevent the young from taking up smoking
C.p ut up more no-smoking signs in public places
rm people of the dangers of second-hand smoke
35.What’s the author’s purpose in writing this text?
A.To introduce the benefits of the smoke-free law.
B.To describe how to help children with asthma.
C.To show that smoking is harmful to our health.
D.To give advice on how to give up smoking.

Never will I forget one of my experience in English classes last year. I felt extremely nervous the instant the class began. The reason was because the new English teacher Mr. Zhang might an nounce the exam result and that I would probably get scold as before. Surprisingly, when entering the classroom, she glanced at us, saying gently, “ Today, I won, t talk about the exam result, but I am excited tell you Li Hua wrote an excellent English
article in the exam. I do hope he will make a greater progress with more efforts.” On hearing what he said, I couldny t held back my tears. It is for the first time that I got praised before my classmates. From then on, I fell in love with Eng lish. You can* t imagine how grateful I am for Mr Zhang. Without his praise, I couldn ’t have gone such far in my English study.

Questioning can lead to searching for an answer. If we are in the habit of raising doubts as to whether what we are told is true, we can find the correct answer and learn more, fro Two years ago, our teacher offered us an answer to a difficult math problem in class. Although the answer seemed a little strange, nobody but I doubted it. Thinking that his solution might be wrong, I carefully analyzed the problem and tried to work it out in a different way. Half an hour later, I managed to find the correct answer. When I showed my answer to him, the teacher praised me for my independent thinking.
From this experience I have learnt that questioning can serve as a bridge that helps us to seek the truth.。
