Mother hands me the grocery list and puts money in my pocket, hoping it will be enough. Shes had a hard day, and Ive had a hard week. Nothing out of the ordinary happens when I get to the store. I grab the bread, some milk, and other things on the list. As I turn to head out, I see a beautiful dress in the window. I turn away, bitter that I could never own such a dress.Outside, I cannot stop thinking about that pretty dress. Its not fair that I can never have what I want. I work so hard to help my family and yet I get nothing in return, just another list to do. In my anger, I fail to realize the apples are rolling across the road. Suddenly, I see a pair of hands, offering me an apple. Looking up, I see the tanned(晒黑的) face of this stranger. His clothes are mismatched, borrowed or stolen. But his eyes are soft and kind.“Thanks,” I say. No other words are spoken as he continues to help me. I tell him “thank you” one more time and am on my way because I have many other things to finish. Suddenly, he says, “Have a good day, maam.” And then he gives me the biggest smile I have ever seen. Right then, he looks years younger and I feel a fool.Look at me, feeling sorry for myself because I dont get what I want! Do I not think others are in the same boat, or worse? There are worse things than not having a beautiful dress.My mother will hand me the list today. I will make the same journey and probably see something I want but cannot have. But before I start to feel sorry for myself, I will remember the kind stranger with the big smile, and I will grab the last item, and check out.24.

Save money for the futureCA businessman had two sons. While he gave the younger son a lot of love and gifts, he neglected the elder son. It was completely puzzling and no one knew why.When the boys grew up, they were asked to manage the fathers business. The elder son was absorbed in the business. From morning till late in the evening, he was busy working. Within a few years, he ran the business very well and even expanded it.What about the younger son? He didnt have much to do except have a good time. But the father believed that his favorite son would be a success. If the elder son could be a successful businessman, surely the younger one, with a higher education, would do much better.A few years later, the results of his decision became clear. Uninterested in business, the younger son continued spending his time enjoying himself. And he went out of business. But the elder sons far smaller share of business had expanded and he had proved himself to be a good decision maker.Ashamed at the turn of events, the father met the elder son and was angry with the younger one. The elder son, who was listening to all this quietly, suddenly said he wanted to set up an independent business and live on his own.“Why?” asked the father.“I blame one person for the way my brother has turned out, and its not him.

According to the report, 2,400 people are dying from hunger every day; nearly 13 million in southern Africa will be worried about their food supply because of earthquakes, floods or wars. In a word, hunger remains the biggest problem of the world today. Its strange to see that man can travel to the moon, but still doesnt know how to feed himself. You may ask, “Who steals our bread? The first thieves should be population growth, poverty and loss of rich farmland. In less developed areas like South Africa, the population grows faster than the crops. It is almost impossible for its government to feed so many people and provide education for them. So it is very important to control the population growth and protect their farmland in countries whose people are suffering from hunger. According to the report, the worlds food production is enough to feed everyone if it is given away well. But the problem is that the developed countries are eating food that should be given to the poor. Although they are just using their own earning, the fact is that they are coldly watching others starving away. Luckily, some developed countries such as Netherlands, Norway and Sweden have done a lot to help those hungry people in African countries. We hope other developed countries will follow them. 32. Why are many people suffering from hunger in southern Africa?A. Because there are so many people. B. Because there are so many wars.C. Because there are so many natural disasters and wars.D. Because there isnt enough food production in the world.33. According to the passage, which of the following CANNOT help to make fewer people hungry? A. Poor countries protect their rich farmland. B. Poor countries control their population growth.C. Rich countries give some food to the poor ones. D. Rich countries produce more food to feed themselves. 34. What can we learn from the fourth paragraph? A. Poor countries are cold and going to die out. B. Rich countries arent willing to help poor countries. C. Rich countries notice the problems of the poor countries D. Rich countries are trying their best to help poor countries. 35. What does the author expect in the last sentence?A. More countries will give help to Norway. B. More countries will be as rich as Sweden. C. Poor countries should learn from rich ones. D. More rich countries will help the hungry people.第三部分 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1分，满分20分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。I spent two months with an American family last year when I studied in AmericaIt is said, “The best house is in the USA，the best wife is in Japan，and the best food is in China.”So I took 36 and pleasure to 37 “the best food” for my American family.
