She heard a cat cry and finally found a yellow kitten(小猫) in a pile of books.His little feet were frozen, Myron recalls. We gave him a bath just to warm him up and he purred(咕噜叫) the whole time. That was 1988 and it was a Cinderella story for Dewey, the cat who has lived happily among the books ever since.His story has a life of its own, Myron says while reading the cats fan mail. We have people drive hundreds of miles out of their way just to see Dewey. We even had a Japanese public television crew come here to make a short film of him.Shortly after the kittens rescue, a photo of the librarys new employee sitting on the card catalog(目录) appeared in local newspapers. Local people were invited to help name the kitten and many cast votes(投票).We have never had such a big crowd for a contest and there wasnt even a prize, Myron says with a laugh.Dewey grew from a popular local library employee to a national star with his pictures on calendars. However, he is not the only cat who lives among books. Library cats greet people in about 125 libraries across America. Most live and work in comfortable, small town libraries where they dont get lost in the books. Library cats used to earn their keep by catching rats, but modern library cats have more white-collar duties: to act charming and make the library a pleasant homey place.Library cats just create a nice , warm atmosphere(气氛),says Gary Roma, producer of Puss in Boots , the film about library cats. The cats attract children to the library and the elderly who maybe cant have pets in their apartments, Roma says. Books, libraries, and cats just go together.（1）The cat Dewey was found by Vicki Myron in the _ of 1988. A . springB . summerC . autumnD . winter（2）A contest was held after the kittens rescue to _ the cat. A . killB . nameC . catchD . feed（3）We probably wont be able to see the picture of Dewey in _.

B . C . D . （6）From the passage we can infer(推断) that _. A . library cats only attract children and old peopleB . Dewey is one of the cats who live among booksC . library cats are not as popular as they used to beD . every library in America has at least one cat六、 词汇运用 (共2题；共20分)14. （10分）根据短文内容从方框中选择恰当的单词填空，使短文完整、通顺。有的需要变换形式，每词限用一次。finally, classmate, scientist, mark, give, famous, age, try, spend, workMiss Li,Im a slow student.

The reason is that we are all afraid of making mistakes in front of others. The more important the speech is, the more frightened we will be. But forget it now. Public speaking is easy. Its just a simple talking, Although Im a shy man, Ive been making speeches and talking on radio and television for more than 30 years. Anybody who can talk can speak in public. Here are some of the lessons I have learned:Keep your speech simple. Your audience cant take all of your main ideas, and they can only remember one or two of them, not ten or twenty. So you should prepare one or two of your main ideas very well. But if you cant express what you want to say, then your speech will not be paid attention to. And if you dont have a clear idea of what you want to say, your audience wont, either.Organize your speech well. No matter how long or short your speech is, you have to organize your speechhow you are going to open or begin, what main points you want to make and how youre going to close or end. A strong close is usually very important and critical(关键的): the last thing you say is what your audience will most likely remember. If not, they will be confused.
