An eight-year-old child heard her parents talking about her little brother. All she knew was that he was very sick and they had no money left. When she heard her daddy say to her 16 mother, “ 17_ a miracle(奇迹)can save him now”, the little girl went to her bedroom and took out her piggy bank. She _18_ all the change out on the floor and counted it carefully. Then she 19 her way six blocks to the local drugstore(药店).
“And what do you want?” asked the chemist. “It’s 20 my little brother,” the girl answered back. “He’s really, really sick and I want to buy a 21 . His name is Andrew and he has something 22 growing inside his head and my daddy says only a miracle can save him.” “We don’t 23 miracles here, child. I’m sorry,” the chemist said, smiling 24 at the little girl.
In the shop was a 25 customer. He bent down and asked the little girl, “What kind of miracle does your brother 26 _?” “I don’t know,” she replied. “He’s really sick and mommy says he needs 27 .

III. 阅读理解(共5小题,每题2分,满分10分)
In the tenth grade, I began working for free at a vet’s that was run by a friend. I wanted to get experience for my future job. However, on one particular Saturday morning I learnt something perhaps more important.
The hospital was in the middle of one of the poorer sections of the city and some people could only pay for the most basic treatments. On this Saturday, a man and his young son,who was probably about 7 years old, walked in with a small cat in a cardboard box. There was something wrong with the cat’s left eye. But the man could not afford to pay for the cost of the medicine. He kept quiet for a while, and then he asked where the nearest animal shelter was. Hearing this, his son cried and started to argue with him. All of a sudden, an older woman who was sitting in the waiting room stood up, walked up to the counter, and told the man that she would pay for the cost. The man thanked her and the son got to keep a healthy cat.
I always thought it was the right thing to help out a needy person, but I only saw people do acts of kindness on TV or in movies. What the woman did made me believe that these things do happen in real life, and quite often.
Now, when I can’t decide whether to help someone who is in need, I remember this woman, and then I have the courage to step up to the plate(行动). Sometimes other people follow.

A. kids B. the poor
C. animals D. women
37. For what purpose did the writer work at the vet’s?
6
A. To help out his friend. B. To make some pocket money.
C. To gain some work experience. D. To learn more about society.
38. What would the man probably do with the cat if the woman didn’t help him?
A. Take it home without treatment.
B. Give it to someone on the street.
C. Give it to the woman.
D. Give it up.
39. We can learn from this passage that________.
A. the man doesn’t like keeping a cat
B. the older woman often helps people out
C. the man’s son didn’t agree to the man’s first decision
D. the hospital often asks for too much money
40. After reading the passage, we know that the act of the woman________.
A. will be shown on TV to teach people a lesson

C. made the writer know that everyone could help others
D. encouraged the writer to help others
