Many years ago I drove a taxi for extra money mainly from the downtown to the 36 , beside the Greenwood Racetrack..
Each time a taxi drove up to the station, many kids would run along the   37 . One   38   kid would open the passenger door and say, “ 39   , sir.” The passenger would always say thanks and give the kid a   40   . It was a routine that everybody knew.
One day I noticed a boy, who was   41   than most of them but was pushed away by even the smallest kid. He never pushed back.   42   , he would even step aside when others pushed forward. But he never   43   .
Then as I was   44   to the sidewalk, all the other kids were running after a taxi   45 mine. They didn’t notice mine.
The boy saw me and walked toward my taxi. As I pulled up I made sure that I stopped in a 46 with the passenger door right beside him. He   47 the passenger door and said, “Good luck at the track, sir.”
48 , the man did not tip him a quarter. Instead he   49 , “Get out of my way!” He pushed him aside so   50 that the boy fell down and was badly hurt. I got out of my car quickly,   51 find that the man disappeared in the crowd.
So I looked for the kid. I decided to give him $20 for all his   52 . But he was far up ahead, walking out of the station   53 .   54 , I never saw him again. I’d like to find him and tell him that if only he had stuck around a little longer I would have given him a whole $20.
I learned an important lesson from the boy. When things seem so   55 that you are ready to give up, that is the time when things are most likely to turn around for you.

第一节完形填空 (共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)
阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从11—25各题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项。
Students will need to use all of their skills in order to understand the reading selections in Reader’s Choice.
The book    11   many types of selections on a wide variety of topics. These selections provide practice on    12    different reading skills to get the 13   of the writer. They also give students   14   in four basic reading skills: skimming, scanning, reading for   15   comprehension, and critical reading. E:\Zujuan\WCFUpload\Upload\2010-05\06\Local Settings\Temp\Rar$DI00.140\www.canpoint.cn\
Skimming involves reading quickly through a text to get an overall idea of its contents. This kind of rapid reading is   16 when you are trying to decide if careful reading is desirable or when there is not    17    to read something carefully.
Like skimming, scanning is also quick reading. However, in this case the search is more    18    .To scan is to read quickly in order to find out specific information. When you read to find a    19   date, or number you are scanning. E:\Zujuan\WCFUpload\Upload\2010-05\06\Local Settings\Temp\Rar$DI00.140\www.canpoint.cn\
Reading for thorough comprehension is   20    reading in order to understand the total   21   of the passage. At this level of comprehension the reader is    22    to summarize the author’s ideas but has not yet made a critical evaluation of those ideas. E:\Zujuan\WCFUpload\Upload\2010-05\06\Local Settings\Temp\Rar$DI00.140\www.canpoint.cn\
Critical reading demands (需要)that a reader   23   judgments about what he or she reads. This kind of reeding    24    posting and answering questions such as “Does my own experience support that of the author?”, “Do I    25    the author’s point of view?” And “Am I convinced by the author’s arguments and evidence?
