The measure of a man’s real character is what he would do if he knew he would never be found out ．

—Thomas Macaulay

Some thirty years ago，I was studying in a public school in New York．One day，Mrs Nanette O’Neill gave an arithmetic 26 to our class．When the papers were 27 she discovered that twelve boys had made exactly the 28 mistakes throughout the test．

There is nothing really new about 29 in exams．Perhaps that was why Mrs O’Neill 30 even say a word about it．She only asked the twelve boys to 31 after class．I was one of the twelve．

Mrs O’Neill asked 32 questions，and she didn’t 33 us either．Instead，she wrote on the blackboard the 34 words by Thomas Macaulay．She then ordered us to 35 these words into our exercise-books one hundred times．

I don’t 36 about the other eleven boys．Speaking for 37 I can say：it was the most important single 38 of my life．Thirty years after being 39 to Macaulay’s works，they 40 seem to me the best yardstick（准绳），because they give us a 41 to measure ourselves rather than others.

42 of us are asked to make 43 decisions about nations going to war or armies going to battle. But all of us are called 44 daily to make a great many personal decisions. 45 the wallet，found in the street，be put into a pocket 46 turned over to the policeman? Should the 47 change received at the store be forgotten or 48 ? Nobody will know except 49 . But you have to live with yourself，and it is always 50 to live with someone you respect.

We walked in so quietly that the nurse at the desk didn’t even lift her eyes from the book，Mum pointed at a big chair by the door and I knew she wanted me to sit down. While I watched mouth open in surprise，Mum took off her hat and coat and gave them to me to hold. She walked quietly to the small room by the lift and took out a wet mop. She pushed the mop past the desk and as the nurse looked up，Mum nodded and said，“ Very dirty floors.”

“Yes. I’m glad they’ve finally decided to clean them，”the nurse answered. She looked at Mum strangely and said，“But aren’t you working late？”

Mum just pushed harder，each swipe（拖一下）of the mop taking her farther and farther down the hall. I watched until she was out of sight and the nurse had turned back to writing in the big book.

After a long time Mum came back. Her eyes were shining. She quickly put the mop back and took my hand. As we turned to go out of the door, Mum bowed politely to the nurse and said, “Thank you．”

Outside, Mum told me：“Dagmar is fine. No fever.”

Most animals have little connection with animals of a different kind，unless they hunt them for food．Sometimes，however，two kinds of animals come together in a partnership（伙伴关系）which does good to both of them．You may have noticed some birds sitting on the backs of sheep．This is not because they want a ride，but because they find easy food in the parasites（寄生虫）on sheep．The sheep allow the birds to do so because they remove the cause of discomfort．So although they can manage without each other，they do better together．

Sometimes an animal has a plant partner．The relationship develops until the two partners cannot manage without each other．This is so in the corals（珊瑚）of the sea．In their skins they have tiny plants which act as “dustman”，taking some of the waste products from the coral and giving in return oxygen which the animal needs to breathe．If the plants are killed，or are even prevented from light so that they cannot live normally, the corals will die．

A．they can eat its parasites B．they enjoy travelling with the sheep

C．they depend on the sheep for existence D．they find the position most comfortable

A．birds and parasites B．birds and sheep

C．parasites and sheep D．sheep,birds and parasites

A．comfort B．light C．food D．oxygen

61．What does the second paragraph mainly discuss？

A．Some animals and plants depend on each other for existence．

B．Some animals and plants develop their relationship easily．

C．Some plants depend on each other for food．

D．Some animals live better together．

In 19th century England people liked to go to the seaside．In those days, ladies wore long bathing dresses, and men wore bathing suits．Women did not walk about on the beach（沙滩）in their bathing dresses．They hired a bathing machine．A bathing machine was used for changing in，and for taking the bather down to the sea．It cost 2 pence（便士）to hire a machine and an attendant（侍者）．When she had paid，the bather climbed up the back steps and got into the bathing machine．Then she changed into her bathing dress．When she had changed，the machine was pulled down to the sea．The bathing machine stopped in the water and the bather went down the front steps into the water．If she did not want to get into the sea，the attendant pulled her in．
