I got a cancer when I was 18. This was a big deal for someone to 31. I chose to fight. After treatments, I 32 from my illness. Life couldn’t have been any 33. When I became fit years later, I met a wonderful man and got married. 34, I still felt something missing and eager to find my 35.

As my 20-year anniversary (周年紀(jì)念) of being a cancer 36 approached, I wanted to do something special and 37. I organized a fundraiser, calling it “A Mission (使命) of Love” and thanks to my 38 family and friends, raised﹩4,000 for St. Jude’s, planning to 39 it myself. Three quarters of the money would be given as a (n) 40 to the hospital, and what was left would go toward buying 41 for the children. I also organized a T-shirt 42 activity for any child who felt well enough.

Thanksgiving Day seemed the most 43 day of the year for the mission, and so it was all arranged. We went to a store and 44 three shopping carts with toys. It was 45 we were celebrities (名人) when the employees and other shoppers knew what we were doing.

On Thanksgiving Day, as we got to St. Jude’s, I became 46 emotional, as my eyes were filled with tears of 47. After dropping the toys off, we arrived where six children were waiting anxiously to begin painting. To me, it was as though they weren’t sick, and to see them smile was the greatest gift I could have ever 48.

Leaving there that day, I knew I had finally found my purpose. All of us are born for a reason, but all of us don’t 49 why. Success in life has nothing to do with what you 50 in life. It’s what you do for others.

To what degree can a computer achieve intelligence？The answer to this question may lie in a newly-developed US computer program called Smarter Child and the Internet.

If you ran into Smarter Child online, you would be surprised at this kid’s huge memory. It can recite many facts. For example, Smarter Child knows every baseball player in every team this season.

He knows every word in the dictionary and the weather in every major city areas across the US. However, if you ask Smarter Child other questions, you get strange answers. A question about Smarter Child’s age returns. “One year, 11 days, 16 hours, 7 minutes, and 47 seconds!” Asking where he lives gets, “In a clean room in a high-tech building in California.”

Smarter Child uses the vast information on the World Wide Web as his memory bank. To answer questions about spelling, for instance, Smarter Child goes to American Heritage Dictionary online. For the weather, he visits www.intellicast.com.

Some scientists believe that by joining the many systems of the Internet, an artificial being with the combined knowledge of, say, Albert Einstein, Richard Nixon and Britney Spears could be born. However, if Smarter Child wants to think and learn on his own like the boy-computer David in the movie A. I. Artificial Intelligence, he must overcome two problems.

The first is that computers find it difficult to read web pages because the files are labeled in different ways. That’s why programmers need to tell Smarter Child where to look for the weather. It would be a much more difficult task to let him find it himself.

Another problem is that while Smarter Child can process information more exactly and faster than any human, he lacks common sense—a basic grounding of knowledge that is obvious to any young child.

From the text we can infer that www.intellicast.com is a website           .

       A．where we people can find Smarter Child

       B．which is specially designed to help Smarter Child

       C．where weather forecasts are made

       D．which is about artificial intelligence

It is probably most difficult for Smarter Child to          .

       A．learn the ability to tell right behaviors from wrong ones.

       B．tell us how to spell a difficult word

       C．provide us with a famous poem by Shakespeare

       D．tell us how the American government is run

The underlined  “it ” in Paragraph 6 refers to ________.

       A．where to look for the weather B．Smarter Child.

       C．a(chǎn) much more difficult task      D．to read web pages

Which of the following is the best title for the passage?

       A．A New Web Child   B．Intelligence Development

C．Smarter Child         D．The Future of Internet 

I remember vividly the call that changed my life. It was Tuesday, February 18．When the   1    rang in the kitchen of my Los Angeles, the   2   was Marty Banderas,  a literary agent to whom I had sent a draft( 草稿 )of my novel three weeks earlier. “I have a couple of   3  .” Banderas saiD．“First, how old are you?” “I'm 48,” I replieD．“Are you in good   4    ?” “Yes, excellent. What’s this about? ” “I’ve sold your novels       5     one and a half million dollars.” I sat down in    6    . I had written fourteen novels in twenty years, but each one had been    7     by the publishers. I suppose many people would have been     8     , but not me. Each time, I just      9      writing another one. My husband advised me to find something else to do, but I refused to   10    up. Seeing this book   11    was the best thing that has ever happened to me. It's a mystery story (like all the others) and it was on the best-seller   12   two weeks after publication! I got my first lesson in story  13  from my grandmother. She used to read my stories. She was the one who gave me a    14     of words. She sparked (激發(fā)) my  15   and she has been a   16    influence on me. I always had stories running through my   17    and as soon as I could write, I   18     them down on paper. I married young and I have three children, but I never stopped writing.    19   novels between doing the diapers(嬰兒的尿布) and dishes. I'm writing another novel now. Yes, my    20    has changed my life.

I was in the queue for the supermarket checkout（付款臺(tái)） earlier today．All of the checkouts were    46   , and the woman behind me was not happy! Every word that came from her mouth was a（n）    47   ! She wasn’t happy with the number of checkouts      48    ; she wasn’t happy with the amount of shopping some people had in their baskets; she wasn’t happy because this supermarket didn’t have a stand where she    49    scan her own shopping．

       I listened to her    50   looking around as I loaded（裝） my stuff onto the conveyor belt （傳送帶）．I didn’t want    51    to do with that kind of attitude, and if ever I’d felt like letting someone go     52     of me, it wouldn’t be such a woman!

       But then I    53   back．Standing beside the woman was a five-year-old girl,    54    her granddaughter．The girl’s part of the shopping    55    some comic books．

       I couldn’t    56   it．I pushed my shopping back to the end of the conveyor belt,     57    a space．“After you,” I said to the woman and the girl, and    58    them to a big     59    ．The woman was delighted, and even   60    to complain ---- until she was walking away．

       So,   61   bother（麻煩，費(fèi)事） having helped? It was because that little girl was probably taking in her granny’s complaint like a sponge（海綿）．She was learning how to    62    situations like that by listening to her granny．I’d seen that I could interrupt that complaining, and put a smile and some   63    into the middle of it．We can all complain; we can all react    64    , but it doesn’t have to be like that．And, even if only for a few     65     , I wanted to leave that little soul with just a glimpse of another way．
