27、There was a story many years ago of a school teacher --- Mrs. Thompson. She told the children on the first day that she loved them all the same. But that was a lie. There in the front row was a little boy named Teddy Stoddard. He didn’t play well with the other children and he always needed a bath. She did not like him.
Then Mrs. Thompson got to know that Teddy was actually a very good boy before the death of his mother. Mrs. Thompson was ashamed of herself. She felt even worse when, like all her other students, Teddy brought her a Christmas present too. It was his mother’s perfume(香水).
Teddy said, “Mrs. Thompson, today you smell just like my Mom used to.” After the children left she cried for at least an hour. On that very day, she stopped teaching reading, writing and math. Instead, she began to teach children.
Mrs. Thompson paid particular attention to Teddy. The boy’s mind seemed to come alive. The more she encouraged him, the faster he improved. By the end of the sixth grade, Teddy had become one of the smartest children in the class.
Six years went by before she got a note from Teddy. He wrote that he had finished high school, third in his class, and she was still the best teacher he ever had in his whole life. He went to college. Mrs. Thompson got two more letters from him with the last one signed, Theodore F. Stoddard, M. D. (医学博士).
The story doesn’t end there. On his wedding day, Dr. Stoddard whispered in Mrs. Thompson’s ear, “Thank you, Mrs. Thompson, for believing in me. You made me feel important and showed me that I could make a difference.”
Mrs. Thompson, with tears in her eyes, whispered back, “Teddy, you have it all wrong. You were the one who taught me that I could make a difference. I didn’t know how to teach until I met you.”
【1】What did Mrs. Thompson do on the first day of school?

28、“Did you hear what happened to Adam Last Friday?” Lindsey whispers to Tori.
With her eyes shining, Tori brags, “You bet I did, Sean told me two days ago.”
Who are Lindsey and Tori talking about? It just happened to be yours truly, Adam Freedman. I can tell you that what they are saying is (a) not nice and (b) not even true. Still, Lindsey and Tori aren’t very different from most students here at Linton High School, including me. Many of our conversations are gossip(闲话). I have noticed three effects of gossip: it can hurt people, it can give gossipers a strange kind of satisfaction, and it can cause social pressures in a group.
An important negative effect of gossip is that it can hurt the person being talked about. Usually, gossip spreads information about a topic-breakups, trouble at home, even dropping out-that a person would rather keep secret. The more embarrassing or shameful the secret is, the juicier the gossip it makes. Probably the worst type of gossip is the absolute lie. People often think of gossipers as harmless, but cruel lies can cause pain.
If we know that gossip can be harmful, then why do so many of us do it? Theanswer lies in another effect of gossip: the satisfaction it gives us. Sharing the latest rumor(传言) can make a person feel important because he or she knows something that others don’t. Similarly, hearing the latest rumor can make a person feel like part of the “in group.” In other words, gossip is satisfying because it gives people a sense of belonging or even superiority(优越感).
Gossip also can have a third effect: it strengthens unwritten, unspoken rules about how people should act. Professor David Wilson explains that gossip is important in policing behaviors in a group. Translated into high school terms, this means that if everybody you hang around with is laughing at what John wore or what Jane said, then you can bet that wearing or saying something similar will get you the same kind of negative attention. The dos and don’ts conveyed through gossip will never show up in any student handbook.
The effects of gossip vary depending on the situation. The next time you feel the urge to spread the latest news, think about why you want to gossip and what effects your “juicy story” might have.
【1】The author uses a conversation at the beginning of the passage to .
A. introduce a topic B. present an argument
C. describe the characters D. clarify his writing purpose
【2】Professor David Wilson thinks that gossip can .
A. provide students with written rules
B. help people watch their own behaviors
C. force schools to improve student handbooks
D. attract the police’s attention to group behaviors
【3】What advice does the author give in the passage?
A. Never become a gossiper
B. Stay away from gossipers
C. Don’t let gossip turn into lies
D. Think twice before you gossip.
29、I am different from the rest of my family in appearance. When people see us together, it is clear that I am adopted, because I am a Chinese girl while they are all Americans. I’m happy that I have such a loving and caring family, but sometimes I wish I knew who my birth parents are.
People may wonder if I am sad that I don’t know who my parents are. I know they are concerned about me. I feel like there is something missing in my life, like a big hole in my heart. My teacher listened when I told her about my feelings, and she thought she should do something. Encouraged by my teacher’s strong recommendation, Mom and I went to Chinese Heritage Camp of Snow Mountain Ranch. Now, we take part in it every year.
Chinese Heritage Camp is a two-day camp where hundreds of adopted kids like me spend time with each other. We feel close to each other. We understand each other. We talk about how it feels to be adopted, and we take part in fun outdoor activities. It’s great because we can talk about our feelings freely without worrying about other things. We talk, laugh, cry, and dance. It makes me feel like I’m not alone, and that there is someone out there going through the same feelings.
Now if I am asked that question, I will answer, “Maybe I won’t know who my birth parents are forever, and that made me a little sad. But I do know that I live with my real parents in a real house, with loving and caring family members. I’m thankful, and I love my life just the way it is. ”
【1】What made the author take part in the camp?
A．Her disappointment.
B．Her mother’s instruction.
C．Her teacher’s suggestion.
D．Her families’ encouragement.
【2】The author felt close to other members in the camp because of ________.
A．the same experience
B．the same favorite subjects
C．the same activities in the camp
D．the same habits of eating and sleeping
【3】What happened to the author after she began to take part in the camp?
A．Her opinion on her life finally changed.
B．She became brave but still felt lonely.
C．She was respected by a number of people.
D．She stopped looking for her birth parents.
【4】Where can we most probably find the passage?
A．In the story of an adopted child.
B．In the sports section of a newspaper.
C．In a magazine about the culture of the US.
D．In a book on the history of Chinese Heritage Camp.
