He told her not to open it until her birthday. She knew her mother wouldnt tolerate any disrespect to the kind man who helped them out after Vickis father passed away. Besides, Vicki didnt want to get Uncle Tom angry. But little Vicki didnt want to just hold it and guess what was in it. After all, she looked forward to his coming to show her interesting things, like how to turn an old sock into a doll.All the day, Vicki couldnt stop thinking about the gift. While her teacher was giving a lecture, Vicki sat still in her seat, drawing paper dolls inside the box. When school was done, she raced home. Walking into the room, again, she shook the present, but she heard nothing. Holding her breath, she opened the box and looked inside. Seconds later, she cried. When Mrs Black saw the box, she said angrily, Didnt I tell you to leave it alone?Vicki sobbed (抽泣) and said, Mommy, you dont understand.Dont cry to me. You have missed everything now, just because you couldnt wait, Mrs Black accused. What will Uncle Tom think now?Uncle Tom gave me nothing, Vicki cried and handed the empty box to her mother. He played a trick on me.Mrs Black said doubtfully, Uncle Tom is not like that. You must have dropped it.Vicki kept crying. Only a rapid knock on the door made the house quiet. It was Uncle Tom. He looked at the empty box. You have already done it? I told you to wait for your birthday.You didnt give me a gift. Fresh tears filled her eyes.I try to give you something.

There is not enough time to read everything we want to read. However, you can consume more information in shorter time through speed-reading.The first thing about speed-reading is looking at the word and recognizing it. Dont say the word in your mind, just look at it and recognize its importance. Later you will recognize clumps of four words or more to increase your speed. This is the first and most important step in speed-reading.The next step is technique. As with any other skill, speed-reading requires technique. You should first be sitting up straight with your book flat on a horizontal (水平的) surface such as a table or a desk. Next, you should be able to see the entire page. This is necessary if you want to recognize clumps of words. Lastly, you should be focused. It is hard to read with a lot of noise. Find a quiet place to read. This will help your understanding of the text.You need something to guide your eyes while reading. You should use your finger. Move your finger smoothly across the page. Keep your eyes focused on the words as you recognize them while using your finger as a guide. This will increase your speed.The third step is practice. Practice makes perfect. Read using different techniques, but make sure you understand what you are reading.63From the first paragraph, we know that _.A. people can read what they likeB. the less you read, the more time you will spendC. there is more limited information than ever beforeD. conditions ask people to use less time to know more information64Which of the following shows the RIGHT time order for speed-reading according to the passage?a. Ask for more technique. b. Look at many words and recognize them.c. Practise more.A. c, a, b B. b, a, c C. c, b, a D. a, c, b65The underlined part “you should be focused” in the third paragraph means that .A. a person should devote all his attention to readingB. your feelings will be hurt while readingC. a person should forget his difficulties while readingD. you should pay attention to your faults while reading66To speed up your reading, you could .A. know it is necessary to read quickly B. say every word out loudC. use something to guide your eyes D. underline some important words while readingDAs a senior, my future is always on my mind. To be exact, thoughts of the future have kept me up countless nights and made me worry enough to do poorly on more than one test. Because of this, words of wisdom are a source of comfort. Steve Jobs once gave a speech to Stanfords graduating class in 2020 and his words resound repeatedly in my mind whenever I think about my future.When I hear Jobs discuss his life as a student, some of my fears were eased. He, too, felt the need to attend college to make something of himself. He faced what many are extremely afraid of: uncertainty. His lack of understanding caused him to stop attending college and focus on what he felt was important. His story had a happy ending, of course, since he certainly turned out well. This doesnt mean that students shouldnt attend college, but rather that they shouldnt worry so much.Jobs talked about the hardships in his work. His love of his work helped him carry on and he got where he was meant to be, which restates the point: don t panic.One particular part of his speech stayed with me. Steve Jobs quoted（引用）the saying “Stay hungry, stay foolish” and it has become my motto. Staying foolish is realizing that you are still a fool, no matter how much youve learned or experienced. There is always more to explore. Staying hungry is wanting to find those things about which you are still uneducated.Steve Jobss level of success is attainable, and I aim to prove that. With the will power to go into the world living every day like its my last and allowing the future to take care of itself, I will do great things. In the last moments of my life, Ill be proud of what I have done and hope to have all the wisdom a person could wish for.67The author felt worried when _.A. he thought about his future B. he had to take tests at schoolC. he had lots of sleepless nights D. he searched for words of wisdom68It is suggested in first two paragraphs that _.A. Steve Jobs didnt attend college at all B. Steve Jobs failed because of his decisionC. Jobs speech influenced the author greatly D. the author once discussed life with Jobs69What did the author gain from Jobss speech?A. Courage to drop out of school. B. Bravery to face uncertainties.C. Confidence in defeating Jobs. D. Interest in computer industry.70The passage is mainly about _.A. the wisdom drawn from a speech B. the most impressive
