Then a sudden illness destroyed her sight and her hearing.

One evening, a few weeks before Christinas, they showed The Christmas Story and had a raffle (抽奖)with a girf s bike as the prize. It was painfiilly cute ( "J 爱的)with colored streamers (飘带),flowers, butterflies, a fascinating bell, all designed to delight a five year old. But fifty years old of me won it!This led to a bit of a puzzle as I didn,t have kids or grand kids to give it to.I wanted the bike to go to someone who didn,t have the opportunity to own such a wonderful thing. 1 contacted the shelter (where I occasionally volunteered in the kitchen) and while there was a big need for a sweet bike there was also the potential for it creating conflict.I sought else where until I found out about a couple in our church who had been going through hard times in their marriage because of drugs and alcohol. They walked to our church (they dicin' t have a car)from a parking lot a mile away and they had a sweet little five-year-old daughte匚On Christmas Eve I went to their parking lot. They had already left on foot to go to the candle lighting service・Their landlord was on the property and when he heard that I wanted to leave the bike anonymously he offered to open up their trailer (家庭停车场)・There I saw a lone tree, so I put the bike behind it.It was a great moment for me and, I hope, a little bit of Christmas magic for the family and that little girl.9.What did the author get in a raffle activity?A.

Jane Bennet and Mr Bingley soon fall in love, but Jane" s sister Elizabeth finds that she can't get on with Mr Darcy at all. It seems to the reader that they are opposites in every way, he all prides and she all prejudices.Of course, Elizabeth and Darcy must end up together: everyone knows that opposites attract. But before that happens there are many obstacles to overcome, and not only for the two main characters・ Jane and Bingley's romance does not run smoothly, while young Lydia and her lover, the ne er-do-well (不成器的)Mr Wickham, cause a scandal (丑闻)that threatens the social standing of the Bennet family・The quality that draws people to this book is its lightness of touch. We care for the characters and wish for their happiness. But Jane Austen does not tell us that one character is bad and that another is good. She does not preach (说教)to us. She uses irony (讽朿lj); that is, she manages to convey what she thinks by saying nearly the opposite of what she means.The most famous example of this is the opening sentence of the novel: “It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife: The sentence is funny and witty (诙i皆的)because in reality it is the other way around: the real truth is that a single woman with no money needs a husband・Funny, but serious too. It is not a joke that women like Elizabeth and Jane had no money and couldn,t be independent. It is not amusing that they had so little choice in life while the men had the run of everything・Pride and Prejudice communicated this truth even as it amuses and entertains us.13.What are the sad truths that the author mentioned in the beginning?A・ One daughter in the family causes a family scandal.B.Elizabeth finds that she is so different from Mr Darcy.C.Women didn,t have much independence or choice in life.D.In late 18th Century England social standing decided one" s happiness・14.What,s the meaning of the underlined the word "obstacles^ in the fourth paragraph?A. Difficulties.B. Development. C・ Tasks. D. Aims.15.The author mentioned the opening sente nee of the novel to ______ ・A. display the use of irony in Austen,s novelB • show his concern ove r the life of poor ladies in EnglandC.show that truth is sometimes covered up by its oppositesD.explain why novelists like to use ironyII •任务型阅读How to build the confidenceEven the most successful people can be unsure of themselves.

Like a muscle, with training and in time, it can become strong and powerful.16. ______ Here are some ideas to develop this most important habit・Make friends with your failings and limitations. 17. ________ So long as you are challenging yourself and seeking to develop, you will be making mistakes.

Having an inner compass is a vital part of living confidently・Set some challenging goals.
