Let me explain.Two brothers decided to dig a deep hole behind their house. As they were working, several older boys stopped by to 42 .“What are you doing?” asked one of the visitors.“We plan to dig a hole all the way through the earth!” one of the brothers43 excitedly.The older boys began to laugh, telling the younger ones that digging a hole all the way through the earth was 44 .After a long 45 one of the diggers picked up a jar full of spiders,worms and some other kinds of insects. He removed the lid and showed the 46 things in it to the scoffing visitors.Then he said quietly and 47 “Even if we don’t dig all the way through the earth, look at what we found along the way!”Their goal was far too ambitious, but it did cause them to dig. And that is what a goal is for-to cause us to move in the 48 we have chosen; in other words, to 49 us digging!But not every goal will be fully achieved. Not every job will 50 successfully. Not every relationship will endure. Not every love will 51 . Not every dream will be 52 .But 53 you fall short of your aim, perhaps you can say, “Yes, but look at what I found along the way! Look at the wonderful things which have 54 my life because I tried to do something”It is in the digging that life is lived. And I believe it is joy in the journey, in the end, that truly 55 .41.

No way, not me anyway. Maybe someone had kicked her out of their car the night before. "We're moving house." "No space for her any more with the baby coming." "We never really wanted her, but what could we have done? She was a present." People find all sorts of excuses for abandoning an animal. And she was one of the most beautiful dogs I had ever seen.I called her Goldie. If I had known what was going to happen I would have given her a more creative name. She was so unsettled during those first few days. She hardly ate anything and had such an air of sadness about her. There was nothing I could do to make her happy, it seemed. Heaven knows what had happened to her at her previous owner's. But eventually at the end of the first week she calmed down. Always by my side, whether we were out on one of our long walks or sitting by the fire.That's why it was such a shock when she pulled away from me one day when we were out for a walk. We were a long way from home, when she started barking and getting very restless. Eventually I couldn't hold her any longer and she raced off down the road towards a farmhouse in the distance as fast as she could.By the time I reached the farm I was very tired and upset with Goldie. But when I saw her licking (舔) the four puppies (幼犬) I started to feel sympathy towards them. "We didn't know what had happened to her," said the woman at the door. "I took her for a walk one day, soon after the puppies were born, and she just disappeared." "She must have tried to come back to them and got lost," added a boy from behind her.I must admit I do miss Goldie, but I've got Nugget now, and she looks just like her mother. And I've learnt a good lesson: not to judge people.61. How did the author feel about Goldie when Goldie came to the house?A. Shocked.B. Sympathetic.C. Annoyed.D. Upset.62.

Goldie's SecretD. Love AnimalsCIt was my very first teaching job, I worked with a group of four-year-olds. The first day went really well: Kelly only fell over twice. After several days of carrying her to and from the yard, I thought, why not encourage her to walk down the hallway a little by herself? I asked Kelly if she would like to try it, and she became very excited. The next day Kelly began her first journey down the hallway, about ten feet away. We were both excited! But my assistants were against that I was encouraging this poor child to walk. But Kelly wanted to do her best.And so we began to practice walking down the hall. I was quite nervous at first, but she just smiled and told me not to worry, she was perfectly fine. Each day Kelly and I continued our slow walk down the hallway. Weeks passed and Kelly continued to walk out to the yard every day. We hardly ever carried her.One day in December, I was told Kelly was in hospital getting her checkup. On Monday morning, when her mom brought her back to school, she asked if I had been doing anything differently with Kelly.I was n’t quite sure what she meant.“Her legs have got more exercise in the past few months than in the past four years of her life.” she looked at me with tears in her eyes and told me that Kell y’s bad legs became much better.“ I don’t know how to thank you for everything you have done for my daughter.”Seventeen years later, I still think back to the first time Kelly made it down the long hallway. She taught me that no obstacle(障碍) in life is too big to overcome. You just need to keep working at it---one step at a time.66. Why did the writer want to teach Kelly to walk?A. Because she wanted Kelly to walk by herself later on.B. Because she thought Kelly was too much trouble to her.C. Because Kelly was as healthy as any other kids.D.

Kelly will always remember the teacher.D. the teacher would be in great trouble in the future.70. Which of the following is true?A. Kelly was a disabled girl.B.
