四、完形填空。
Tina was a seventeen-year-old girl who always wore a bright smile. She had a disease(疾病)and had to use a walker most of the time. Maybe it was because she looked 1 and people didn’t know how to come near to her. Tina usually broke the ice with people she met with a big “Hi”.
In one class, I gave the students an assignment (作业) to recite (背诵) a poem. I only made the assignment worth a very small part of their total grade since I knew most of my 2 would not do it anyway. In the class, one by one each student 3 to correctly recite the poem. Finally, angry and half joking, I said that the next student who 4 recite the poem had to do three push-ups (俯卧撑). To my 5 , Tina was next. She used her walker to move to the front of the class. 6 she recited, she made a mistake. Before I could say a word, she 7 her walker and started doing push-ups. I wanted to say, “Tina, I was just joking!” But she stood up, continued the poem and she finished the rest perfectly.
When she finished, a student asked, “Tina, why did you do that It’s not an 8 assignment!”
“Because I want to be like you guys! To be normal (正常的),” Tina said.
Silence fell on the whole room when another student cried out, “Tina, we’re not normal! We are teenagers! We get in 9 all the time.”
“I know,” Tina said as a big smile spread across her face. The rest of the students laughed, too.
Tina got only a few 10 that day, but she got the love and respect of her classmates. To her, that was worth a lot more than a grade.

五、阅读理解
People often said Thomas Edison was the greatest genius(天才) of his age. There are only a few men in all of history, who have changed the lives of other men as much as the inventor of the first useful electric light. But Edison could never be pleased only because someone said he was a genius. “There is no such a thing as genius,” Edison said. He thought what people called genius was mostly hard work.
But Edison was a thinker as well as a worker. From his earliest days as a child he wondered about the secrets of nature. He tried to understand them, and then he tried to learn what he could usefully do with them.
Edison enjoyed thinking. He knew that most people would do almost anything instead of the difficult work of thinking, especially if they do not think very often. But he knew, too, that thinking could give men enjoyment and pleasure.
Edison could not understand why anyone could not be interested in life. As he loved to think, he also loved to work. On the day he became 75 years old, someone asked him what idea he had about life. “Work,” he answered, “Discovering the secrets of nature and using them to make men happier.” He said he had enough inventions in his mind to give him another 100 years of work.

( )2 How did Edison always deal with the secrets of nature after exploring them

C. To make them useful in life. D. To share them with others.
