Remembering My Grandparents
When memory began for me, my grandfather was past sixty -- a great tall man with thick hair becoming gray.He had black eyes and a straight nose which ended in a slightly flattened tip. Once he explained seriously to me that he got that flattened tip as a small child when he fell down and stepped on his nose. The little marks of laughter at the corners of his eyes were the prodnct of a kindly and humorous nature. The years of work which had bent his shoulders had never dulled his humour nor his love of a joke.
Everywhere he went,“Gramp” made friends easily. At the end of half an hour you felt you had known him all your life. I soon learned that he hated to give orders , but that when he had to, he tried to make his orders sound like suggestions.
One July morning, as he was leaving to go to the cornfield, he said ： “Edwin, you can pick up the potatoes in the field today if you want to do that.” Then he drove away with his horses. The day passed, and I did not have any desire to pick up potatoes. Evening came and the potatoes were still in the field. Gramp, dusty and tired, led the horses to get their drink.
“How many bags of potatoes were there？” Gramp inquired. “I don't know. ”“How many potatoes did you pick up？”“I didn't pick any. ” “Not any! Why not？”“You said I could pick, them up if I wanted to. You didn't say I had to. ”In the next few minutes I learned a lesson I would not forget： when Gramp said I could if I wanted to, he meant that I should want to. Gram hated cruelty and injustice. The injustices of history, even those of a thousand years before, angered her as much as the injustices of her own day.
She also had a deep love of beauty. When she was almost seventy-five, and had gone to live with one of her daughters, she spent a delightful morning washing dishes because, as she said, the beautiful patterns on the dishes gave her pleasure. The bird, the flowers, the clouds-all that was beautiful around her- pleased her. She was like the father of the French painter, Millet, who used to gather grass and show it to his son , saying , “See how beautif ul this is ! ”
In a pioneer society it is the harder qualities of mind and character that are of value. The softer virtues are considered unnecessary. Men and women struggling daily to earn a living are unable, even for a moment, to forget the business of preserving their lives. Only unusual people, like my grandparents, manage to keep the softer qualities in a world of daily struggle. Such were the two people with whom I spent the months from June to September in the wonderful days of summer and youth.
1.We know that Grandpa's nose()
A. was flattened because it had been stepped on
B. was not flat when he was a boy

D. he had to do it
4.The writer describes his Grandma as()

"You said I could pick them up if I wanted to. You didn't say I had to."
In the next few minutes I learned a lesson I would not forget, when Gramp said I could if I wanted to, he meant that I should want to.My grandmother ("Gram") worked hard all day, washing clothes, cleaning the house, making butter, and even working in the field when help was scarce. In the evening, though, she was not too tired to read books from the community library. For more than forty years Gram read aloud to Gramp almost every evening. In this way she and Gramp learned about all the great battles of history and became familiar with the works of great authors and the lives of famous men.Gram hated cruelty and injustice. The injustices of history, even those of a thousand years before, angered her as much as the injustices of her own day.She also had a deep love of beauty.

It's Christmas Eve 2040, and I'm the only bartender still working that afternoon, and the house is practically empty. I see this guy down at the end of the bar, sitting by himself. I bring him a fresh drink, and wish him greetings of the season. He looks at me, sort of funny, and says: "Do you know who I am？"
I admit I don't.
"Here, maybe this will help," he says, and he pulls a little picture out of his wallet. Art old portrait, really old, like centuries old. It's a young man in profile: sharp nose, weak chin, definite resemblance to ray friend here. At the bottom, there's a caption: "W. A. Mozart."
Now it's my turn to look at him funny. Then it hits me like a brick. "You're that clone guy," I say. "The guy in the papers back in the '20s."
"In the flesh. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. I have his brain, his heart, his DNA. He's my father and my mother and my brother. He's my identical twin, except I was born 247 years later."
So he starts talking. It takes him a long time to explain, and I didn't get it all, but I got a lot.
In 2001, Congress passed a ban on cloning humans, but of course mad scientists went ahead with secret cloning.
And then, there was this software billionaire who was nuts about Mozart, and was especially nuts about Mozart's Requiem. He set up a secret institute in Switzerland and hired some top biologists and told them they'd get $1 million each for every baby they cloned from Mozart's DNA.
In 2003, the institute managed to bring four babies to term. Two died shortly after birth. Two survived. But then this software billionaire died, and his company collapsed, and so did his cloning institute. One baby Mozart was put up for adoption anonymously. No one knows what happened to that one. The other baby was adopted by one of the scientists, who was a big Mozart fan herself.
"And that's me," he says.
His mother, of course, didn't tell him or anyone else who he was, but she told the boy how special he was, how he was a genius, what a great composer he could be, trying to push her little Mozart toward music.
But the 2010s weren't the 1760s. The boy may have had talent, but he also had his own priorities, and they didn't include violin sonatas. He liked rock music and he liked it loud, and then as he got older he liked beer and girls. The harder his mother pushed him to be a great composer, the less he wanted to be one. After a while his mother gave up. By the time he was 2o, he had a decent job working in a frame shop. And that's when the roof fell in.
Some reporter got wind of the institute and the cloning experiment and tracked him down. But no one could prove he was a clone of Mozart without digging up the original, so the media treated him as a joke. It just crushed him. He tried running away. He joined a Buddhist monastery in Japan. One day, while he was there, he heard the Requiem. Not for the first time, but this time it was different.
"My God, it was beautiful!" he says. "I felt a realization explode inside my head. I just felt it somehow: It rang inside of me. I'd finish it, or die trying." He knew that if he could finish the Requiem, he'd be famous for real, a genius instead of a fool. He immersed himself in Mozart's music. Nights, weekends, all the time, he drove himself, working on the Requiem.
"And？ What happened？"
"I turned 37 four months ago. I've been working on the Requiem for 15 years. Mozart died when he was 35. I should have finished the Requiem two years ago."
"And you haven't."
He looks at me for a while and shakes his head, "You don't understand. I have his genes but not his genius."
And with that he drops a tip on the bar and is gone. I never saw him again. If the Requiem was ever finished, I never heard about it.
W. A. Mozart was a great(1)who lived in the 18th century. He died young, leaving his masterpiece Requiem unfinished. At the(2)of the 21st century, a billionaire who was crazy about the Requiem set up a(3)institute and hired some top biologists to(4)babies from Mozart's DNA.

Section A
Scientists scanning and mapping the Giza pyramids say they&39;ve discovered that the Great Pyramid of Giza is not exactly even. But really not by much. This pyramid is the oldest of the world‘s Seven Wonders. The pyramid’s exact size has (26) puzzled experts for centuries， as the “more than 21 acres of hard， white casing stones” that originally covered it were (27) removed long ago.
Reporting in the most recent issue of the newsletter “AERAGRAM，” which (28) chronicles the work of the Ancient Egypt Research Associates， engineer Glen Dash says that by using a new measuring approach that involved finding any surviving (29) remnants of the casing in order to determine where the original edge was. They found the east side of the pyramid to be a (30)maximum of 5.55 inches shorter than the west side.
The question that most (31) fascinates him， however， isn&39;t how the Egyptians who designed and built the pyramid got it wrong 4，500 years ago， but how they got it so close to (32) perfect. “We can only speculate as to how the Egyptians could have laid out these lines with such (33) precision using only the tools they had，”Dash writes. He says his (34) hypothesis is that the Egyptians laid out their design on a grid， noting that the great pyramid is oriented only (35) slightly away from the cardinal directions (its north-south axis runs 3 minutes 54 seconds west of due north， while its east-west axis runs 3 minutes 51 seconds north of due east)—an amount that&39;s “tiny， but similar，” Atlas Obscura points out.
A)chronicles
B)complete
C)established
D)fascinates
E)hypothesis
F)maximum
G)momentum
H)mysteriously
I)perfect
J)precision
K)puzzled
L)remnants

第11题
"You bet. Gotta gas up," Mark said.
We had only gone a few feet past them when one of them hollered (叫喊)."Hey, take my truck." Then he pointed to the vehicle at the curb and tossed us the keys. The man didn't even know our names.
We did borrow the truck. We got our gas, returned the vehicle and talked a few minutes with the owner. His name was Bill Parsley, and he was the sort of friendly, open man who would tell a couple of strangers to take his truck.
Take my truck. It became like a mantra (祷文)to us. It represented the world as it should be.
This past February, as Mark and his son were driving near their home in St. Louis, they came upon a van barely moving. The problem was an exhaust system dragging on the ground. Sparks were flying.
A young woman was at the wheel, and she had a baby in a car seat. Mark stopped and offered to follow her to a gas station to make sure she got there safely. Then he drove her to a nearby mall, where he picked up her waiting husband and son, and returned them all to the gas station. Bad news awaited them: the mechanic couldn't get the van fixed until morning.
The husband thanked Mark and said he'd call a taxi. My friend lives near the gas station. "Take my car," he said, handing over the keys. The man was taken aback. "Do you even know my name？" he asked.
"Actually, I don't," said Mark. "Just bring the car back tomorrow."
After a few protestations, the family climbed into the car and drove away. Less than an hour later the grateful man, followed by his wife in the family's other car, returned Mark's vehicle.
As Mark watched the couple drive off, he felt good. He turned to his wife, Carol and said, "We just paid Bill Parsley back."

C.at least three different vehicles that day
