Care Your Dream

I always have the dream to dance like a beautiful ballerina(芭蕾舞女演员) twirling around and around and hearing people applaud for me. When I was young, I would twirl in the field of wildflowers that grew in my 31 . For hours I would dance 32 people were watching me. 33 woke me up when I heard a voice saying, “I don’t know why you 34 trying to dance. Ballerinas are pretty, slim little girls. 35 , you don’t have the talent to 36 be a ballerina.” I remember how those words paralyzed(使麻木) every 37 in my body. I fell to the ground and wept for hours.

We lived in the country by a nearby lake and I would sometimes go there to hide. I enjoyed 38 by the water. I would sit there for hours and stare at my 39 . There I was, looking 40 like a pretty ballerina dancer. Reflections don’t 41 . Once the waves would come, my reflection was 42 , washed away just like my 43 . I sat there staring at the water, hoping that my reflection would reappear and be 44 .

As I grew older, I began to realize that the dream I had was never 45 , so it slowly died. It’s not that I wanted it to die, 46 I allowed it to die the day I started listening to the words “You can’t do it.” When I 47 woke up from many years of dreaming, I realized th at you can’t just keep 48 in the wildflowers, you have to move on to the 49 .

I still go to the lake sometimes and sit there. Looking at my reflection is different now too. When I was young, I looked at how others saw me. Now that I am older and 50 , I look at how God sees me.

四阅读理解

In my living room, there is a plaque(匾) that advises me to “Bloom(开花) where you are planted.” It reminds me of Dorothy. I got to know Dorothy in the early 1980s，when I was teaching Early Childhood Development through a program with Union College in Barbourville, Kentucky. The job responsibilities required occasional visits to the classroom of each teacher in the program. Dorothy stands out in my memory as one who “bloomed” in her remote area.

Dorothy taught in a school in Harlan County, Kentucky, Appalachian Mountain area. To get to her school from the town of Harlan, I followed a road winding around the mountain. In the eight-mile journey, I crossed the same railroad track five times, giving the possibility of getting caught by the same train five times. Rather than feeling excited by this drive through the mountains, I found it depressing. The poverty level was shocking and the small shabby houses gave me the greatest feeling of hopelessness.

From the moment of my arrival at the little school, all gloom(忧郁) disappeared. Upon arriving at Dorothy's classroom, I was greeted with smiling faces and treated like a queen. The children had been prepared to show me their latest projects. Dorothy told me with a big smile that they were serving poke greens salad and cornbread for “dinner” (lunch). In case you don't know, poke greens are a weed-type plant that grows wild, especially on poor ground.

Dorothy never ran out of reports of exciting activities of her students. Her enthusiasm never cooled down. When it came time to sit for the testing and interviewing required to receive her Child Development Associate Certification, Dorothy was ready. She came to the assessment and passed in all areas. Afterward, she invited me to the one-and-only steak house in

the area to celebrate her victory, as if she had received her Ph.D. degree. After the meal, she placed a little box containing an old pen in my hand. She said it was a family heirloom (传家宝), but to me it is a treasured symbol of appreciation and pride that cannot be matched with things.

1．“Early Childhood Development” in Paragraph I refers to ________．

A．a program directed by Dorothy

B．a course given by the author

C．an activity held by the students

D．an organization sponsored by Union College

2．In the journey, the author was most disappointed at seeing ________．

A．the long track B．the poor houses

C．the same train D．the winding road

3．Upon arriving at the classroom, the author was cheered up by ________．

A．a warm welcome B．the sight of poke greens

C．Dorothy's latest projects D．a big dinner made for her

4．What can we know about Dorothy from the last paragraph?

A．She was invited to a celebration at a restaurant.

B．She got a pen as a gift from the author.

C．She passed the required assessment.

D．She received her Ph.D. degree.

5．What does the author mainly intend to tell us?

A．Whatever you do, you must do it carefully.

B．Whoever you are, you deserve equal treatment

C．However poor you are, you have the right to education.

D．Wherever you are, you can accomplish your achievement.

五短文改错:

I felt sadly yesterday when our teacher told us something about Project Hope in class. It has set up to help the children in the countryside who can’t pay to go to school. After school I came home. I was wondering if I could do something for the Project then I caught sight of money-collecting box on the table. Then I made up my minds to send my pocket money which I had saved for nearly one year for the children who wanted to go to school. I wrote a letter to him and hurried to the post office. Together with the letter I posted the money and sent with my best wishes to them.

六作文背诵

HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY 诚为上策

There is an English proverb which says (saying) “Honesty is the best policy.” It signifies the importance of honesty.

What are the benefits of honesty? If you are honest to others, they will be honest to you in return. When you are sad, they will comfort you. When you are in trouble, they will help you.

There is no enumerating the evils of dishonesty here. In a word, a dishonest man will be looked down upon by others and (be) regarded as a public enemy.

英国有一句谚语说“诚为上策”。它说明了诚的重要性。

诚的益处是什么？如果你对他人诚实，他们也会对你诚实作为报答。当你忧悉的时候，他们会安慰你。当你是处在困难中的时候，他们会帮助你。

无法在这里数述不诚实的害处。一言以蔽之，一个不诚实的人会被人看轻的而且被看作为一个公敌。
