Molly ran back home from school and dropped her schoolbag on the sofa. Then on the table she saw "Mum's Wish Book"—a mail - order catalog (邮购商品目录) from a gift shop.

She opened "Mum's Wish Book" and hoped that she could find these 12 in it. Tears ran down her face when she saw the gloves in the catalog.

Molly ran out by the back door and went straight to the post office. There she carefully filled out the order form torn from the catalog.
"I need to buy a stamp to 14 the form," she said to Mr. Smith, the only worker in the post office. "Umm, a pair of gloves " said Mr. Smith, as he passed a stamp to her.
"Yes. It's a Christmas gift for Mum, but please don't tell her. It's our 15 , OK " Molly didn't realize how white Mr. Smith's beard was until that moment. In fact, he reminded her of Santa Claus.
As Molly walked back home, she decided to tell Dad her secret. "You've got to check the mailbox every day," Molly said 16 to Dad. He nodded, with a
big smile.
Coming home from school every day, Molly peeked at (偷看) Dad when Mum wasn't 17 , but every time he shook his head.
On Christmas Eve, Dad came back from the mailbox, still empty handed. Molly felt 18 when she went to bed, because she didn't have the gloves for Mum.
Before Christmas dinner, as Mum took the apple pies out of the oven, Molly began 19 the table. Suddenly, they heard someone pulling up the driveway. From the window they saw Mr. Smith making his way to the door, with a box in his hand. Mr. Smith 20 Mum the box, "I believe this is yours."
Mum looked from Dad to Molly and opened the box. Her eyes lit up when she saw the gloves. "Oh, who bought these for me " she asked.
"Santa did," said Molly smilingly. "Ho! Ho! Ho! Merry Christmas! " said Mr. Smith, with a loud laugh. It was a Christmas that no one would ever forget.

Dear Dr. Manners,
My close friend seldom says "please". She will say "Can you get me that bag " or "Move it over there! " I have told her a lot of times that it is polite to use "please" and "thank you", but she hardly remembers. I feel that she is ordering me around without "please", and I always get angry.
We have been close friends for over 10 years. It seems that I can't stand it any more. What should I do Can you help me
Sincerely,
Hawkins
Dear Ms Hawkins,
When your friend does not use polite words, it seems that she is ordering you to do something. So you have right to hate her behavior.
Ask her why she doesn't use "please" or "thank you". Explain to her that it makes you feel uncomfortable. Also, you don't need to do anything for her because she doesn't seem kind or pleasant when she asks you to.
Maybe your friend was not taught how to use "please" or "thank you" in the normal conversation. So you can try to teach her that. Remember it is difficult to find another close friend if you lose one.
Best regards,
Dr. Manners

It was Christmas Eve. When everyone went to bed, Bunny couldn't fall asleep. He still couldn't think of what he wanted as a special Christmas present. He wondered how Santa—Father Christmas would know what to bring him if he didn't know himself.
As he was sitting up in bed, Bunny heard a big noise on the roof (屋顶) and a sound downstairs. It was Santa Claus, he realized. Bunny jumped out of bed and ran down the hall to the stairs. He hoped to take a look at the old man before Santa left for his next stop.
By the time Bunny was at the bottom of the stairs, everything was silent again. Lots of presents were put under the Christmas tree, but Santa was gone. A little disappointed, Bunny turned to climb back upstairs when he heard a cry.
"Hello," said Bunny. "Is somebody there "
He was answered by another cry. Bunny looked around the big pile of presents to see what was making the noise. Right under the tree was a funny looking brown animal with big feet and sad eyes. It also had antlers (鹿角) on its head. Bunny almost mistook it for a dog.
"Are you a reindeer (驯鹿) " asked Bunny.
"Yes," replied the brown animal with antlers. "My name is Ralph."
"And you were pulling Santa's sled (雪橇) "
"I was until I got airsick," replied Ralph. "Santa had to leave me here and go on with the other seven reindeer."
"Isn't it a bit unusual for a reindeer to get airsick I mean, isn't flying what
reindeer are famous for "
"Not me, I'm afraid. It makes me scared. I always feel sick when it comes to flying," replied Ralph. "But everyone wanted me to pull Santa's sled, so when it was my turn I gave it a try. I'm afraid I just wasn't cut out for the job. Now I'm stuck here and I don't know how to get back to the North Pole."
"Well, if you like, you can stay with us as a friend," said Bunny. As he made the offer, Bunny suddenly realized the special present he wanted from Santa was a new friend!

D)信息摘录 阅读短文,然后完成内容摘要。每空不超过三个单词。(共5小题,每小题2分)
If you meet a British person in the street, it is very likely that he or she will apologize no matter whether it is his or her fault (过错) or not.
It seems that Britain is becoming a nation where everyone is saying sorry. Almost each person says sorry about eight times each day—and one in eight people apologize as many as 20 times a day.
As you may have seen, the British apologize more often than members of other cultures. A research shows that in many cases, people's love of saying sorry in Britain goes a little further than it does for Americans. For example, about 15 British people would say "sorry" while only 10 from the US would do this if they sneezed, if they corrected someone's mistake or if someone knocked into them.
In the old days, "sorry" was used to express regret and sadness for having done something wrong. But now British people use the expression as a way of showing good manners. For example, they might say "sorry" instead of "excuse me", "pardon", "what" or "whatever".
People in Britain also use "sorry" when they share the same feeling with others—so they might say "sorry about the rain".
However, British people's use of "sorry" may make things very confusing and difficult for foreigners who are not familiar with their ways. But actually, people in Britain pay much attention to the feelings of others. This is the very reason why they apologize every day.
The British people apo - logize 36. ______ than people in other cultures. In Britain, almost each person says sorry about eight times each day and one in eight people apologize as many as 20 times a day.
37. ______ do British people say sorry many times every day ◆ In the old days, people said sorry when they 38. ______.
◆ Now British people use the expression as a way of showing good manners.
◆ The British people also say sorry to share the same feeling with others.
British people's use of "sorry" sometimes make foreigners 39. ______.
In fact, British people 40. ______ others.

When the sun set and the blue sky came up, my father and I used to climb the mountain near my house. 41. (walk) together, my father and I used to have a lot of conversations through which I learned lessons from his 42. . He always told me, "My son, you should have goals like climbing the mountain." Without the mountain - climbing that we both enjoyed, we couldn't have enough time to spend together because my father was very busy. I really got a lot from the mountain - climbing. It gave me time to talk with my father and to be in deep thought as well as 43. (培养) my patience (耐力).
Once we climbed a very high mountain. It was so challenging for me because I was only ten years old. During the first few hours of climbing, I enjoyed the flowers and trees, and the birds' singing. But as time passed, I got a 44. p in both of my legs. I wanted to quit climbing, but my father said to me, "You can always see a beautiful sky at the top of the mountain, but you can't see it before you reach the top. Only there can you see all of the nice things, which is just like in life."
At that time, I was too young to understand his words. But later after that, I got to know the 45. (mean) of hope in life. I found myself standing at the top of the mountain and that the sky there was as clear as crystal (水晶).

51. When you are learning English, you find it not clever to put an English sentence word for word into your own language. Take the sentence "How do you do " for example. If you look up each word in the dictionary, one at a time, what is your translation 52. 在你自己的语言中,它肯定是一个错误句子.
53. 语言不仅仅有不同的发音. They are different in many ways. It's important to master the rules for the word order in the study of English, too. If the speaker puts words in a wrong order, the listener can't understand the speaker's sentence easily. 54. Sometimes when the order of words in an English sentence is changed, the meaning of the sentence changes. But sometimes when the order is changed, the meaning of the sentence doesn't change. 55. Let's see the difference between the two pairs of sentences.
"She only likes apples." "Only she likes apples." "I have seen the movie already." "I have already seen the movie."
When you are learning English, you must do your best to get the spirit of the language and use it as the English speaker does.
