Smiling can infect everyone and light up our day. Well, it was at the market at 5 pm — the worst time of day to shop. I had to pick up a few essentials after work: cream for coffee, eggs for breakfast and Advil for my headache.
I’d been rushing all day doing jobs for people. I did not want to be shopping, to say the least. But I told myself it was my last stop before going home to put my feet up.
So I scored (得到) a parking place, grabbed a bag from the trunk and found a shopping cart.
The market wasn’t as crowded as I had expected. I grabbed a package of linguini (意粉) and some pesto.
That’s when I saw her. She was sitting in a shopping cart. She looked to be maybe 9 months old. Short blond curls, blue eyes. A white lace dress and shiny black shoes.
I couldn’t take my eyes off her. Then I did what I always do with children: I gave her my best smile. I may have looked a bit mad, but it came from my heart.
That is a habit I formed long ago when I became a mother. It started with my first child, in that unforgettable, life-changing moment.
At times my smile would fade to a look of fear or worry, but it never left my face for long. It always came back, even through tears.
I’ve learned that everyone needs a smile sometimes, young and old, friends and strangers, even strangers at the market in a rush to get home.
She took her time deciding just what to make of my smile. But finally, she lit up.
I laughed and waved goodbye. And she blew me a kiss.
That put a smile on my face and I got a smile in return from every shopper I passed.
I was still smiling when I got home and realized I’d forgotten to get Advil. Luckily, I didn’t need it. My headache was gone.
Somehow, in that simple exchange of smiles, this weary (使人厌烦的) old world became a better place. Want to change the world? Try smiling. Someone will smile back at you. I guarantee it.
If you’re lucky, maybe they’ll even blow you a kiss and make your headache go away.
1.What can we know about the author from the first four paragraphs?
A.She couldn’t wait to go shopping.

2.What does the underlined word “That” refer to?

C.Smiling at kids she meets. D.Observing different people.
3.What happened to the author after meeting the girl?
A.She thought about her childhood. B.She got blank looks from others.
C.She began to feel better. D.She wanted to kiss the girl.
4.What is the main purpose of this article?
A.To show how to find joy in shopping. B.To share her thoughts on smiling in a story.

根据节选小说内容,回答问题。
“Hello,”said Bruno.
“Hello,”said the boy.
The boy was smaller than Bruno. He wore the same striped pajamas that all the other people on that side of the fence wore, and a striped cloth cap on his head. He wasn’t wearing any shoes or socks and his feet were rather dirty.
When Bruno first approached the boy, he was sitting cross-legged on the ground, staring at the dust(尘土) beneath him. However, after a moment he looked up and Bruno saw his face. It was quite a strange face too. ... When the boy looked at him, all Bruno could see was an enormous pair of sad eyes staring back.
Bruno was sure that he had never seen a skinnier or sadder boy in his life. He thought that he had better talk to him.
...
Bruno stared at the boy and considered asking him why he looked so sad but hesitated(犹豫) because he thought it might sound rude. He knew that sometimes people who were sad didn’t want to be asked about it; sometimes they’d offer the information themselves and sometimes they wouldn’t stop talking about it for months on end, but on this occasion, Bruno decided that he should wait before saying anything.
Bruno sat down on the ground on his side of the fence and crossed his legs like the little boy and wished that he had brought some chocolate with him or perhaps a pastry that they could share.
“I live in the house on this side of the fence,” said Bruno. ... “I can see right over the fence from there. I’m Bruno, by the way.”
“I’m Shmuel,” said the little boy.
...
“... How old are you?” Bruno asked.
Shmuel thought about it and looked down at his fingers and they wiggled in the air, as if he was trying to calculate(计算). “I’m nine,” he said. “My birthday is April the fifteenth nineteen thirty-four.”
Bruno stared at him in surprise. “What did you say?” he asked.
“I said my birthday is April the fifteenth nineteen thirty-four.”
Bruno’s eyes opened wide and his mouth made the shape of an O. “I don’t believe it,” he said.
“Why not?” asked Shmuel.
“No,” said Bruno, shaking his head quickly. “I don’t mean I don’t believe you. I mean I’m surprised, that’s all. Because my birthday is April the fifteenth too. We were born on the same day.”
Shmuel thought about this. “So you’re nine too,” he said.
“Yes. Isn’t that strange?”
“Very strange,” said Shmuel. “Because there may be dozens of Shmuels on this side of the fence but I don’t think that I’ve ever met anyone with the same birthday as me before.”
“We’re like twins,” said Bruno. “A little bit,” agreed Shmuel.
Bruno felt very happy all of a sudden...
1.How did Bruno feel about the boy at the first sight?
2.After hesitation, what did Bruno decide to do?
3.Why did Bruno stare at Shmuel in surprise?
4.Why did Bruno feel very happy all of a sudden?
5.What kind of boy do you think Bruno was? And why?

On Aug. 21, I was writing a composition titling “My Hero/Heroine”. I stuck at the beginning, trying to find out what would be my hero/heroine.
Attracted by the cheers from the living room, I opened the door only to find my parents were watching the volleyball matches of women’s final. Then I decided to take the break and joined in them. The score was quite closely between China and its opponent.
To our delight, China won in the end. We couldn’t help feel proud as Chinese! The volleyball players had trained so hard before and fight till the last minute. Without doubt, they were not only my heroines, and the heroines of China! I started to write my composition.

Nick Vujicic was born with no arms or legs, but the brave 32yearold man plays football and golf, swims, and surfs. Nick has a small foot on his left side, which helps him balance and enables him to kick. He uses his one foot to type, write with a pen and pick things up between his toes.
“I call it my chicken drumstick(畸形的小腿),” joked Nick. “I’d be lost without it. When I get in the water I float because 80 per cent of my body is lungs and my drumstick acts as a propeller (螺旋桨). ”
When Nick was born, his distraught mother couldn’t bring herself to hold him until he was four months old. “It was so hard for my parents, but right from the start they did their best to make me independent.” said Nick.
Throughout his childhood Nick dealt with the typical challenges. At the age of seven, Nick tried out some specially designed electronic arms and legs, in the hope that he would be more like other kids. But they turned out to be much too heavy for Nick to operate, affecting his flexibility quite significantly.
“When I was 13 I read a newspaper article about a disabled man who had managed to achieve great things and help others,” said Nick. “I realized why God had made us like this — to give hope to others. It was so inspirational to me that I decided to use my life to encourage others and decided to be thankful for what I do have, not get angry about what I don’t.”
“I tell people to keep on getting up when they fall and to always love themselves,” he said. “If I can encourage just one person then my job in this life is done.” By now, he has visited 35 different countries, touring the world as a motivational speaker.
1.What makes it possible for Nick to swim in the water?
A.His small size. B.His small foot.
C.His light weight. D.His big lungs.
2.The underlined word “distraught” in Paragraph 3 probably means “________”.
A.coldblooded B.badtempered C.extremely upset D.really crazy
3.Nick abandoned the electronic arms and legs because ____________.
A.his family couldn’t afford them B.his classmates didn’t like them
C.they were too heavy to handle D.they affected his appearance
4.What did Nick decide to do when he was 13?
A.To travel to different countries. B.To set up his business in newspapers.
C.To try to become a motivational speaker. D.To encourage people who were in trouble.

高二英语单项填空简单题查看答案及解析
At the office that day, Martha was left to keep her eyes open until after the lunch hour. Then Mr Max Cohen brought her a document to copy. She was so anxious she had to start afresh three times. And when he came to fetch it, all that had been achieved were the words “Memorandum of an Agreement of Sale” typed across the top of the sheet. She shrank under his impatient assurance that it did not matter in the least, and she must take her time. Her fingers were heavy and trembling, and her head was thick. To type two pages of his small neat writing into something clean and pleasant to look at seemed to her, just then, an impossibly difficult task. He went home without coming to her desk again, and she decided she would come early next morning and do it before anyone else arrived.
Mrs Buss, on her way out, asked, “Have you got any certificates?” Martha said no. She had learned to type at home. Mrs Buss said nothing, but merely nodded absent-mindedly, for her eyes were on the elegant Mrs Jasper Cohen. Martha could barely see where she was going as she left the office. What she said to herself was, “I won’t spend the rest of my life typing this stupid jargon”.
She then went into the building of the ZambesiNews. She was going to see if Mr Spur, an old journalist whom she had known as a child, could offer her any kind of position. She was in the building about half an hour, and when she came out, her face was hot with embarrassment. It had been so painful she could not bear to remember what had happened. What she must remember was that she had no qualifications at all.
1.Why did Martha find her first day at the office difficult?
A.She was too nervous to think. B.Mr Cohen was not easy to please.
C.The task given to her was very difficult. D.She was not used to working under pressure.
2.By the end of the day, which of the following was true of Martha?
A.She had decided to work overtime. B.She hadn't finished her typing work.
C.She hadn't thought she would be blamed. D.She knew Mr Cohen was disappointed in her.
3.What might be Mrs Buss's attitude towards Martha?
A.She seemed eager to help her.
B.She seemed uninterested in her.
C.She seemed to have taken a dislike to her.
D.She seemed concerned about her lack of qualifications.
