Kids knew not to go into his yard to pick apples, because old Dawson, they said, would come after you with his gun. One Friday, 12-year-old Janet was walking out with her friend Amy. They had to 36 Dawsons house, but as they got 37 , Janet saw him sitting on his front porch and suggested they cross over the street. Like most, she was 38 of the old man.Amy said，“Dont 39 .” When they got close enough, Dawson looked up with his 40 frown (皱眉), but when he saw it was Amy, he gave a broad 41 . Amy smiled back and told him that they were going to listen to music. Dawson told them that sounded 42 and gave them each a (an) 43 .Later, Janet asked Amy, “Everyone says hes the 44 man in town. 45 was he so nice to us? ” Amy explained that when she 46 started walking past his house, he wasnt very 47 , either, but she pretended he was wearing a (an) 48 smile, so she always smiled. It really took some time 49 he one day half-smiled back. After a while, he started smiling a real smile and then 50 to her. She said he always 51 her an apple now, and was always very kind. In our everyday life we are always very busy doing a lot of things and trying to accomplish so much. Its so 52 to forget that we can bring 53 to ourselves and others. Giving a smile takes so little 54 , but few people are aware of that. Please do remember after a while most people cant 55 our sunniness at all.36Adrop intoBlook atCmove intoDgo by37AinsideBcloseCoutdoorsDaway38AscaredBashamedCproudDfond39AcryBfollowCworryDrun40AtiredBrareCusualDugly41AsmileBhugCsurpriseDgreeting42AstrangeBspecialCboringDfun43AticketBlessonCappleDaddress44AmeanestBworstCstrongestDloneliest45AWhat ifBWhyCWhat for DHow about 46AfinallyBlastCsometimesDfirst47AfriendlyBcoldCviolentDcharming48AunbelievableBprettyCfalseDkind49AuntilBafterCbeforeDwhen50AsuggestedBtalkedCcameDexplained51AsoldBshowedCofferedDsaved52AchallengingBeasyCusefulDreasonable53AgiftsBmemoriesCcheersDrewards54AinterestBbraveryCspaceDeffort55AresistBforgetCacceptDdislikeAThis is a great truth, one of the greatest truths. It is a great truth because once we truly see this truth, we transcend（超越） it. Once we truly know that life is difficult-once we truly understand and accept it-then life is no longer difficult. Because once it is accepted, the fact that life is difficult no longer matters.Most do not fully see this truth. Instead they complain about their problems and difficulties as if life should be easy. It seems to them that difficulties represent a special kind of suffering especially forced upon them or else upon their families, their class, or even their nation.What makes life difficult is that the process of facing and solving problems is a painful one. Problems, depending on their nature, cause us sadness, or loneliness or regret or anger or fear. These are uncomfortable feelings, often as painful as any kind of physical pain. And since life causes an endless series of problems, life is always difficult and is full of pain as well as joy.Yet, it is in this whole process of solving problems that life has its meaning. Problems are the serious test that tells us success from failure. When we desire to encourage the growth of human spirit, we encourage the human ability to solve problems, just as in school we set problems for our children to solve. It is through the pain of meeting and working out problems that we learn. As Benjamin Franklin said, those things that hurt, instruct. It is for this reason that wise people learn not to fear but to welcome the pain of problems. 56. From the passage, it can be inferred that _. A. everybody has problems B. we become stronger by meeting and solving the problems of life C. life is difficult because our problems bring us pain D. people like to complain about their problems 57.

The saying from Benjamin Franklin “Those things that hurt, instruct” suggests that _.A. we do not learn from experience B. we do not learn when we are in painC. pain teaches us important lessonsD. pain cannot be avoided BSend us your joke, anecdote or story, and if we publish it in the magazine, well pay as follows:My Story $500Personal stories beyond the call of daily life.

But get ready for the MP3 player in your hand to get much smallerthe size of a Band-Aid (创可贴).Its called the Skinny Player, and its being designed by industrial designers Chih-Wei Wang and Shou-His Fu. Unlike the current types of iPod Shuffles and iPod Nanos, the Skinny Player does not need to be fixed onto your clothes or put into your pocket. It could stick to your skin(皮肤) like you would attach a Band-Aid. But unlike Band-Aids, this tiny MP3 player will not lose its stickiness as you pull it off for the hundredth time.The Skinny Player features flexible speakers allowing the user to enjoy music conveniently. When it gets dirty, the user can simply clean it using a damp cloth. No batteries either. The Skinny Players designers say it will be powered by body heat, using a flexible battery charging device (充电器) that is in contact with skin whenever the player is being used.The design only includes an on/off button and flexible speakers, no word yet on arranging the volume. Besides, the memory capacity(储存容量) wont be the best, as it is designed to only store one album.The small size and the ability to stick it onto your skin like a Band-Aid should make the Skinny Player perfect for runners who now depend on their iPod to keep them energized on the running path. 64.

Games and sports often grow out of peoples work and everyday activities.

Football, for example, has spread around the world. Swimming is popular in all countries near the sea or in those with many rivers. Some sports or games go back thousands of years, like running or jumping. Chinese boxing, for example, has a very long history. But basketball and volleyball are rather new.

When planning your work, you should make a list of things that you have to do. After making this list, you should make a schedule of your time. First arrange your time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. Then decide a good, regular time for studying. 72 A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems, but it will force you realize what is happening to your time.Find a good place to study. Look around the house for a good study area. Keep this space, which may be a desk or simply a corner of your room, free of everything but study materials. No games, radios, or television.
