Royce shook his head, “I promised Mom Id burn off the weeds (杂草) in one of our fields.” “Ill give you a hand,” Bill said. Driving slowly
3、from the southern edge of the field, they worked their way upwind, leaving a line of burning weeds in their wake. Suddenly the fire was on them. Bill pushed open his door only to find himself thrown through the air, the gasoline tank exploded (爆炸) and the car jumped three feet off the ground. When i
4、t crashed back down Royce found himself unable to move. Bill lay where he fell. “Royce!” he cried, struggling to his feet and heading for the car. Pulling open the door, he seized Royces arms through the smoke. “Im stuck, ” Royce said. “Get yourself away! ” The fire bit at Bills arms, face and legs,
5、 but he said, “Im not leaving you here.” Bill pulled as hard as he could. Suddenly he fell backward.

B Several years ago, I received an email from a total strangera 17yearold girl named Monica Gottlieb, who lived in Vienna. In poor English, she explained that she was doing
9、an online search for people who shared the same names as members of her family. She tried her 19yearold brothers nameMarcus, and that was how she hit upon me. Monica asked me to write back and tell her a little something about myself, which I did. Not long after our first exchanges, Monicas mother,
10、Regine, wrote to me. Regines English was a little better than Monica, so she was able to provide more details about their life in Vienna. She also mentioned that she and her husband Michael were planning their first visit to the US. As motorcycle lovers, they intended to make a twowheeled tour of Ca
11、lifornia and the Southwestern states. She wondered if I could tell her something that I thought they should know before they began their great adventure. I spent about an hour putting together what I considered reasonably practical advice and sent it along. Regine wrote back with thanks, and told me
12、 if I came to Vienna, I should consider the Gottlieb family home as my own. She even offered me both a room and a key to the house. The Gottliebs eventually made their motorcycle trip and enjoyed every minute of it. Eight months later, I was welcomed to Austria by the Gottlieb family. We got to know
13、 each other fairly quickly. Michael and I even seemed to hit it off particularly well. Almost the same age, and sharing a similar sense of humor, we were soon so comfortable with each other. A few days later, Michael, Regine, and I were walking off the big meal we had just had at an openair restaura
14、nt. As we walked and chatted, an older man coming toward us said something in German to Regine. She replied politely, laughing. After he passed by, I asked Regine if the man was a friend. “No,” she said. “He looked at you and Michael and said, Its nice to see two brothers out for a walk together.” B
15、rothers? Wellnot quite. But perhaps longlost cousins after all. 5Which of the following helped start the authors friendship with Monica? AA stranger. BNames. CHobbies. DA visit. 6Why did Regine write her first email to the author? ATo invite him to join their twowheeled tour. BTo offer practical adv
16、ice about his trip to Vienna. CTo ask for some useful information about the US. DTo provide him with information about California. 7Why did the Gottliebs offer the author a key to their house? AThey wanted to thank him. BHe was the real owner of the house. CThey expected to see him immediately. DHe
17、would look after the house for them. 8Which can be used to describe the authors trip to Vienna? ATiring. BBoring. CFruitless. DPleasant. C “Joe? Is that you?” The woman speaking to me at the baseball game looked a little familiar.“Marci?” I asked.“It is you!” she cried out, smiling broadly. “Its goo
18、d to see you again!” It was good to see Marci, too. Off and on during the past few decades, Ive wondered about her. I almost tried to search for her a few years ago after talking to a friend who had indicated that the 1990s had been pretty rough for Marci. So meeting her at the baseball game was rea
19、lly a surprise. We spent a few minutes talking about our livesthe good old, bad old days. Then Marci grew quiet for a moment. “You know, Joe, ” she said, “Ive always wanted to tell you how . how . sorry I am for the way I treated you. You must have been hurt both physically and mentally.” I was a li
20、ttle embarrassed. I turned and looked at her. “Its OK, ” I said, “No big deal! ” “But I was such a jerk, ” she continued. Yes you were, I thought. “We were both pretty young, ” I smiled. “I know, ” she said. “Its just always bothered me, remembering how mean I was to you. And Ive wanted to tell you
21、that Im sorry.” The expression on her face was warm and sincere. And there was something in her eyesit looked a lot like relief. “OK, ” I said. “Apology accepted! ” Overcome by the sweetness of the moment, I reached an arm around her and gave her a quick hug. Just then, the crowd erupted with a huge
22、 cheer, and Marci and I both returned our attention to the game. By the time I looked over to where she had been, she was gone. But the warm, wonderful feeling of our brief exchange was still there, and continues to this day whenever I think about it. It isnt enough to just say “Im sorry” and “Youre
23、 forgiven”. But when those words are truly felt and sincerely expressed, they can open the door to miracles of the heart. Forgiveness can bring peace to an injured souleven years after the fact. Even at a baseball game. 9What kind of life did Marci live during the late 20th century according to the
24、passage? AHappy. BBusy. CHard. DSimple. 10What does the underlined word “jerk” in the third paragraph mean? AA humorous person. BA rude person. CA careless person. DAn honest person. 11Why did Marci look in relief after talking with the author? ABecause her favorite team won the game. BBecause she l
25、earned Joe was living a good life. CBecause she made an apology to the author. DBecause she found she was not mean any longer. D A new study of 8,000 young people in the journal of Health and Social Behavior shows that although love can make adults live healthily and happily, it is a bad thing for y
26、oung people. Puppy love(早恋) may bring stress for young people and can lead to depression. The study shows that girls become more depressed than boys, and younger girls are the worst of all. The possible reason for the connection between love and higher risk of depression for girls is “loss of self”.
27、 According to the study, even though boys would say “lose themselves in a romantic relationship”, this “loss of self” is much more likely to lead to depression when it happens to girls. Young girls who have romantic relationships usually like hiding their feelings and opinions. They wont tell that t
28、o their parents. Dr Marianm Kaufman, an expert on young people problems, says 15% to 20% young people will have depression during their growing. Trying romance often causes the depression.

Parents should watch for signs of depressioneating or mood changesand if they see s
30、igns from their daughters or sons, they need to give help. The good news is that the connection between romance and depression seems to become weak with age. Love will always make us feel young, but only maturity gives us a chance to avoid its bad side effects. 12Whats the main idea of the passage?
31、APuppy love may bring young people depression. BParents should forbid their childrens love. CRomance is a twoedged sword for adults.
