Each day I took the same route to work and passed by a security guard. He greeted everyone walking

by and made small talk with many of the passers-
by. His simple “hello” made people feel special.

Monday the security guard asked me: “How was your weekend?” I told him about my visit to my mother,
-

-
-
-
who had colon cancer (
结肠癌
). “ The time with my mother is so precious, because I know that e
ach time

may be the last.”

He
listened
like
a

friend
I’d
known
for
years.
He
shared
how
he
had
lost
his
father
to

-

-
-

-
cancer two years before. He said, “ I understand what you are going through. My father passed away while

I was serving in Germany. Due to special reasons I was unable to fly back in time. I was unable to say

goodbye or be at the
funeral
. I wish I could have been with him, given him a hug, and told him I loved him.

You are really lucky to have the gift of time.”As I walked away, I reali
zed I did not even know his name.

The following day, on my way to work, I said : “ After we spent all that time talking yesterday, I still don’t

like yesterday. Gary reached out to me, touched me and made my morning the best part of the day. In the

-
-
-
-
business of life, we often forget to wish a stranger hello although how easy it is, and how great and lasting


-
a difference it can make. When you say hello to a stranger you become like a stone thrown into a pond.
With each ripple(
涟漪
) you create, you spread love that continues to give. Make a point of saying hello to a
stranger today. You will give the gift that keeps on giving.

Passage B
Questions 41 to 44 are based on the following passage.

One of the most influential methods in American education currently is the ITIP method (Instructional
Theory into Practice). There’re seven steps.

1
．
Anticipatory
（前期）
Set. The teacher raises the interest of the class by starting with an idea that gets
their attention. It might be the distance to the moon or an object whose function or use the students eagerly
learn. The idea is to have students become focused on the importance of the lesson.


2
．
Objective and Purpose. The students are told the reason for the lesson. It might be related to what was
learned yesterday. The students are allowed to know why they’re learning certain information so their natural
curiosity can be satisfied.
3
．
Input. Once the purpose is clear, the teacher puts new knowledge before the students. This might be
taught in a variety of ways, including the use of lecture, demonstration, recordings, or computers. This new
knowledge must build properly on the learned lessons. Thus the students’ minds will grow naturally.

4

Modeling. The teacher then demonstrates some aspect(

The amazing fact is that most of this sorrow and unhappiness is our creation. It’s the weak point of society.
We make
most of our
mistakes in life due to our greed or because we are forced to do this by
the society.
Because of this, we missed many beautiful moments in life.
Life is full of many exciting things which help us all enjoy it. We were all born in this world with no
thoughts or desires. A child only wants to enjoy his or her life. However, we burden(
使负重担
) these innocent
souls from childhood with lots of expectations and desires. In this way a circle of expectations and desires start
moving in the mind of every person. A child finds it difficult to go with the changing world and he ends up
becoming an unhappy person. Enjoying life is a great art which very few people know on this earth.
To enjoy life, a person is required to have a deep insight into life, free from all the worldly things. We all
