wasnt too 45 ; the response was just as id expected. but 46 i could leave the room, i was 47 by my grandfathers loud voice. “now 48 just a minute,” i heard him say. “let the boy climb the stone walls. 49 , he has to learn to do things for himself.”forthe next two hours i climbed those old walls and had the time of my life. later i told my grandfather about my 50 . ill never forget what he said.

experience. the proud and happy mother feels the first signs of life kicking inside her body. and that same life-many years later- comes to its end in a widely-used expression, to kick the bucket( 吊桶) . the expression to kick the bucket is almost 200 years old. one belief is that it started when an english stableman(马夫) killed himself by hanging while standing on a bucket. he put a rope around his neck and tied it to a beam(梁柱) in the ceiling, and then kicked the bucket away from under him. another old expression that comes from england is to kick over the traces. traces were the chains（链子） that held at horse or mule to a wagon(货运马车)or plow. sometimes, an animal refused to obey and kicked over the traces. kick around is an expression that is heard often in american english. a person who is kicked around is someone who is treated badly. usually he is not really being kicked by somebodys foot. he is just not being treated with the respect that all of us want. a person who has kicked around for most of his life is someone who has spent his life moving from place to place. in this case, kicking around means moving often from one place to another. kick around has another meaning when you use it with the word idea. when you kick around an idea, you are giving that idea some thought. there is no physical action when you kick a person upstairs, although the pain can be as strong .you kick a person upstairs by removing him from an important job and giving him a job that sounds more important, but really is not. still another meaning of the word kick is to free oneself of a bad habit, such as smoking cigarettes. health campaigns urge smokers to kick the habit.56. it is clear that the author wants to help readers _.a. know english has a long history b. understand the development of englishc. enjoy the interest of english idioms（习语） d. learn english expressions with kick57. what does the idiom kick over the traces in all kids seem to want to kick over the traces and do what they like to means _. a. disobey the commands b. obey the traditions c. ride a horse or mule d. punish animals strictly58. mr. smith always kicked his sons around with no excuse, in other words, his sons_ a. expressed their ideas freely b. were looked after well c. moved their family often d. were treated badly59. how many different kinds of meanings are talked about on; kick around in the text? a. one. b. two. c. three. d. four.60. though tom got raised to a better position by his boss, he had no power, we can say _ a. the boss kicked tom upstairs b. tom kicked the bucket c. tom kicked the bad habit d. tom kicked around an ideabaround twenty years ago i was going through hard times. i could not find a satisfying job. to my shame, i had to drive a school bus to make ends meet and lived in a friends house. one afternoon, while driving through a quiet suburban (郊外的) neighborhood i was so sad that i kept asking myself “why has my life become so hard?” “whats wrong with the world?” then i pulled over the bus to drop off (让.下车) a little girl and as she passed she handed me a pretty earring, saying she found it on the floor of the bus and i should keep it in case（以防）the owner came to look for it.in the evening, the owner did come to look for her earring. when i handed it to her, she got very excited and continued saying “thanks, youre a real gentleman.” i told her that she should thank the little girl who had found it. she said, “yes, and you are a good driver, too. what a lovely world it is!” then she left with satisfaction. i was touched by her last words. i had thought something was wrong with the world just because of my poor condition. in fact, nothing was wrong with the world. i should change my attitude towards life. i should be positive about life.at first it was hard, and then it got easier. every day i could find things to make me happy. then one night there was a phone call for me at my friends house from a lady who was a manager in a large hospital. she said she had read my application form and asked me if i would like to work in the hospital. i said yes and got the job. looking back at the experience i know the most important is

john, 6, wearing the worn-out clothes, walked from a far place, his dark small hands holding a piece of stolen bread.john stopped for a moment at the entrance to the church and then left tightly holding the bread, he was an orphan(孤儿), whose parents were killed in world war ii leaving him alone in the orphanage for five years, like many children in the house, he had a lot of free time. mostly no one took care of them, so they had to learn how to steal those they wanted. john believed god to be real, so every sunday morning in any case he would go to the church to have a look and listen to those people singing inside or reading the bible. he felt only at this moment he was the child of god and so close to god. but he couldnt enter because his clothes were so dirty. john himself knew it.john was quietly calculating the times. this was his 45th sunday at the entrance to the church. he stood on tiptoe（踮着脚尖） for a while and walked away.as time passed, the pastor(牧师) noticed john and learned from others that he was the small boy who liked stealing things in the orphanages.on the 46th sunday, the sun was shining and john came still holding a piece of bread with his dark small hands. when he just stood there, the pastor came out. he felt like running away, but he was carried by the pastors friendly smile.the pastor walked up to his side, clearly seeing johns small hands shaking.are you john?john didnt answer, but looked at the pastor and nodded.do you believe in god? the pastor patted john on his head with dust.yes, i do! this time john told him loudly.so you believe in yourself? john looked at the pastor, without a word.the pastor went on saying, at the first sight of you, i find youre different from other kids because you have a good heart.his face turning red, john said nervously, in fact, im a thief. with that, he lowered his head.the pastor didnt speak, but held johns dark small hands, slowly opened them and put them against his wrinkled face.ah just at the same time, john shouted and was about to take out his dark small hands. yet the pastor tightly held his small hands and spread them out in the sun.do you see, john?what?youre cupping the sunshine in your hands.john blankly looked at his hands: when did they become so beautiful?in gods eyes, all children are the same. when they are willing to spread out their hands to greet the sun, the sun will naturally shine on them. and you have two things more than they do. first is courage and the second is kindness. with that, the pastor led him into the church. it was the first time that john went into this sacred place, and at this moment he didnt feel inferior, but the unspeakable warmth.on that morning greeting the sunshine, john found himself again, along with the confidence, satisfaction, happiness, dreams he had never had.twenty years have passed. now the boy who ever tightly held the bread with his dirt hands has been the most famous cook in philadelphia and made many popular dishes.every sunday morning, he would personally send the bread he baked to the orphanage. those children who greeted him with cheers were used to consciously spreading their palms before they got the bread.because they all knew when we are willing to spread out our hands to greet the sunshine, the sun will naturally shine on us.65. the method the writer uses to develop paragrap
