The grocery store is common ground for most of us．The difference is the 36 stories we carry in our hearts as we shop for our daily bread. On my last visit to the local grocer，a(n) 37 lady asked if I knew where she could find the 38 。As I helped her search for it，she told me she needed it to make her annual meat pies。

“I’m making them early this year．My two 39 and their families are going away for Christmas。’’

“I’m not having a tree or putting up 43 . I’ve had more good Christmases than any one person could ever 44 for．This year, I’m giving back。”

The week 45 Christmas，she’s going to help a couple of organizations 46 food and gift baskets to the needy．On Christmas Day，she’s going to serve food at the Downtown Mission. She looked 47 and her eyes were bright and clear as she spoke. No sign of the sadness you’d 48 to see in the eyes of a person about to spend her first Christmas 49 after forty-one years of marriage．I soon found out why.

“I’m giving my own self as a Christmas present this year，”she announced，and then burst into 50 ．The sound of it was contagious(有感染力的)．I laughed with her. Then，she whispered，“Everyone pats my hand and feels 51 for me．They think I’ll be all alone，that Jack won’t be 52 me.”

One look at her shining eyes，53 I knew Jack had never left．We found the pork，54 ，and parted company. So much love，life and laughter in one little lady-the 55 of our encounter(邂逅)will stay with me always.

Honey from the African forest is not only a kind of natural sugar，it is also delicious．Most people，and many animals，like eating it．However，the only way for them to get that honey is to find a wild bees’ nest and take the honey from it．Often，these nests are high up in trees，and it is difficult to find them．In parts of Africa, though，people and animals looking for honey have a strange and unexpected helper-a little bird called a honey guide．

The honey guide does not actually like honey，but it does like the wax in the beehives(蜂房)．The little bird cannot reach this wax，which is deep inside the bees’ nest．so，when it finds a suitable nest，it looks for someone to help it．The honey guide gives a loud cry that attracts the attention of both passing animals and people．Once it has their attention，it flies through the forest，waiting from time to time for the curious animal or person as it leads them to the nest．When they finally arrive at the nest，the follower reaches in to get at the delicious honey as the bird patiently waits and watches．Some of the honey，and the wax，always falls to the ground，and this is when the honey guide takes its share．

Scientists do not know why the honey guide likes eating the wax，but it is very determined in its efforts to get it．The birds seem to be able to smell wax from a long distance away．They will quickly arrive whenever a beekeeper is taking honey from his beehives，and will even enter churches when beeswax candles are being lit．

第四部分 书面表达(共两节。满分45分)

第一节 阅读表达(共5小题；第小题3分，满分l5分)

阅读下面短文并回答问题，然后将答案写到答题卡相应的位置上(请注意76和77两个小题后面的词数要求)。

[1]One person can make a difference．Just ask Ryan Hreljac，who is l5 and lives in Canada．Without his help，hundreds of wells that now provide fresh water for people in Africa，Central America，and India might never have been built．He travels the world to tell people how they can help solve a big problem： in many developing countries．

[2]In l998，when he was 6 years old，Ryan learned that children in Africa often must walk mi1es each day to find water. Some even die from drinking bad water in some developing countries，his teacher says．So Ryan decided to act. He spoke to schools，churches，and dubs about his goal. The word spread，and donations began coming in. After several months of hard work，Ryan had raised $2，000，enough to dig one well．An organization called Canadian Physicians for Aid and Relief chose a location for the well in the village of Agweo in Africa.

[3]After the first well，“the ripple effect(涟漪效应)took over，”Ryan says，“and one goal led to another.” Its website(www. ryanswell．ca)lists some of the famous people Ryan has met and the awards he has received. “The most impressive people I’ve met are the other kids who want to help，too，”he says. “The only reason I accept awards is that each word I say when I get one might help one mole person.”

[4]Asked if he ever feels discouraged that many people still lack good water，Ryan says，“It’s important to be an optimist. I had a small dream，and I stayed with it. Everybody can do something．”

76．Fill in the blank in Paragraph l with proper words．(no mole than 6 words)

77．How many years has Ryan Hreljac been working on his project?(no mole than 4 words)

78．What does Paragraph 2 mainly tell us?

79．For what purpose does Ryan accept awards?

80．What was Ryan Hreljac’s “small dream”?
