I once experienced an unforgettable trip to Gloucester to see some of the world’s most beautiful and exciting animals in their own habitat(棲息地), the North Atlantic Ocean.
After a long trip by bus, we got on the ship. After a while, we stopped and everyone began to shout because we saw a humpback whale（座頭鯨）. It was wonderful. Sometimes, whales came so close to the ship that you thought you could easily touch them.
While we were watching the whales, a guide was giving us some information about them, She told us that we saw only two kinds of whales- 50 foot humpback whales (singing whales) and 70-foot finback whales(the second largest whales on earth). She also said we could easily recognize a whale by its tail because every whale has a different kind of tail just like people have different fingerprints.
They all have names,and on this trip we saw “Salt” and “Pepper”, two whales named by a biologist and a fisherman. They were swimming toghter all the time.
I took twenty-seven photos,but it was very hard to take them because the whales were quick and stayed on the surface of the ocean just for a short time. It was really something. It was one of the chances that a person hardly ever experiences in life, but I had that chance.
This passage is mainly about _________________.
A an unforgettable experience in the forest

Dear Laura,
I just heard you tell an old story of gift giving and unselfish(無私的) love in your program. You doubted that such unselfish love would happen in today’s world. Well, I’m here to give you 21 .
I wanted to do something very 22 for my fifteen-year-old son, who has always been the perfect child. He 23 all summer to earn enough money to buy a used motorcycle. Then, he spent hours and hours on it 24 it looked almost new. I was so 25 of him that I bought him the shiniest helmet（頭盔） and riding outfit（全套裝備）.
I could 26 wait for him to open up his gift. In fact, I barely slept the night before. Upon wakening, I went to the kitchen to 27 the coffee, tea, and morning goodies. In the living room was a beautiful keyboard with a 28 : “To my wonderful mother, all my love, your son.”
I was so 29 . It had been a long-standing joke in our family that I wanted a piano so that I could 30 lessons. “Learn to play the piano, and I’ll get you one” was my husband’s 31 .
I stood there shocked, crying a river, asking myself how my son could 32 this expensive gift.
Of course, the 33 awoke, and my son was thrilled with(對…感到激動) my reaction. Many kisses were 34 , and I immediately wanted him to 35 my gift.
As he saw the helmet and outfit, the look on his face was not 36 what I was expecting. Then I 37 that he had sold the motorcycle to get me the keyboard.
Of course I was the proudest mother 38 on that day, and my feet never hit the ground for a month.
So I wanted you to know, that kind of love still 39 and lives even in the ever-changing world of me, me, me!
I thought you’d love to 40 this story.
Yours,
Hilary

The Problem with Television
Now I can’t watch television but a little years ago I used to watch it every night. I was
often a little tired after a day’s work and watch TV demands very little effort. Unfortunate, there
are too many people among my family. Some wanted to see the programme while others preferred
another. I am happy with any programme but the others spent a lot time arguing and there was no
way of settle the matter except by selling the TV set. Now everyone at home reads instead.

In a country that defines itself by ideals, not by shared blood, who should be allowed to come to work and live here? In the wake of the Sept．11 attacks these questions have never seemed more pressing．
On Dec．11, 2001, as part of the effort to increase homeland security, federal and local authorities in 14 states staged “Operation Safe Travel”---raids on airports to arrest employees with false identification．In Salt Lake City there were 69 arrests．But those captures were anything but terrorists, most of them illegal immigrants from Central or South America．Authorities said the undocumented workers’ illegal status made them open to blackmail（訛詐）by terrorists．
Many immigrants in Salt Lake City were angered by the arrests and said they felt as if they were being treated like disposable goods．Mayor Anderson said those feelings were justified to a certain extent．“We’re saying we want you to work in these places, we’re going to look the other way in terms of what our laws are, and then when it’s convenient for us, or when we can try to make a point in terms of national security, especially after Sept．11, then you’re disposable．They are whole families being uprooted for all of the wrong reasons,” Anderson said．
If Sept．11 had never happened, the airport workers would not have been arrested and could have gone on quietly living in America, probably indefinitely．Ana Castro, a manager at a Ben & Jerry’s ice cream shop at the airport had been working 10 years with the same false Social Security card when she was arrested in the December airport raid．Now she and her family are living under the threat of deportation（驅逐出境）．Castro’s case is currently waiting to be settled．While she awaits the outcome, the government has granted her permission to work here and she has returned to her job at Ben & Jerry’s．
How did the immigrants in Salt Lake City feel about “Operation Safe Travel”?
A．Guilty B．Offended C．Disappointed D．Discouraged
Undocumented workers became the target of “Operation Safe Travel” because ____．
A．evidence was found that they were potential terrorists
B．most of them worked at airports under threat of terrorists
C．terrorists might take advantage of their illegal status
D．they were reportedly helping hide terrorists around the airport
By saying “…we’re going to look the other way in terms of what our laws are”, Mayor Anderson means “______”．
A．there are other ways of enforcing the law
B．we will examine the laws in a different way
C．we will turn a blind eye to your illegal status
D．the existing laws must not be ignored

Do you sometimes argue about what seems to you to be a simple fact ? Do you argue whether it’s cold outdoors or whether the car in front of you is going faster than the speed limit ?
If you get into such arguments, try to think about the story about the six blind men and the elephant．The first blind man who felt the elephant’s trunk said it was like a snake．The second who felt the elephant’s side said it was like a wall, while the third said it was like a spear as he touched the animal’s tusk．The fourth, who had hold of the elephant’s tail insisted that it was like a rope．The fifth man said it looked like a tree as he put his arm around one the elephant’s legs.
The sixth, who was tall and got hold of the elephant’s ears, said it was like a huge fan.
Each man’s idea of the animal came from his own experience．So if someone disagrees with you about a “simple fact”, it’s often because his experience in the matter is different from yours.
To see how hard it is for even one person to make up his mind about a “simple fact”, try this simple experiment．Get three large bowls．Put ice water in one．Put hot water in the second．Put lukewarm water in the third．Now put your left hand in the ice water．Put your right hand in the hot water．After thirty seconds, put both hands in the lukewarm water．Your right hand will tell you the water is cold．Your left hand will tell you it’s hot !
What makes people think about simple facts differently ?
A．The fact that simple facts differ from one another
B．The fact that people have different experience in the same simple fact
C．The fact that people often disagree with one another
D．The fact that it’s hard to make up one’s mind about simple facts
The writer’s advice is _______________.
A．We should never think about simple facts
B．We should never judge something with a one-sided view
C．We should not agree about simple facts
D．We must learn from the six blind men
After reading the last paragraph, we may think of __________.
A．Newton’s law B．Galileo’s theory of falling objects
C．Einstein’s theory of relativity D．Marx’s On Capital (資本)
