6、 first saw the strange and appealing doll ( 玩 具 娃 娃 ) in the window of Abe Sheftel s toy shop on Third Avenue near Fifteenth Street, just around the corner from my office, where the plate on the door reads: Dr. Samuel Amory. I remember just how it was that day: the first hint of spring floated acros

7、s the East River, mixing with the soft-coal smoke from the factories and the street smells of the poor neighborhood. As I turned the corner on my way to work and came to Sheftels, I was made once more aware of the poor collection of toys in the dusty window, and I remembered the approaching birthday

8、 of a small niece of mine in Cleveland, to whom I was in the habit of sending modest gifts. Therefore, I stopped and examined the window to see if there might be anything suitable, and looked at the confusing collection of unappealing objects-a red toy fire engine, some lead soldiers, cheap baseball

9、s, bottles of ink, pens, yellowed envelopes, and advertisements for soft-drinks. And thus it was that my eyes eventually came to rest upon the doll stored away in one corner, a doll with the strangest, most charming expression on her face. I could not wholly make her out, due to the shadows and the

10、film of dust through which I was looking, but I was aware that a tremendous impression had been made upon me as though I had run into a person, as one does sometimes with a stranger, with whose personality one is deeply impressed. （分数：10.00）(1).What made an impression on the author? （分数：2.00）A.the d

13、e window were （分数：2.00）A.expensiveB.appealingC.neatly arrangedD.unattractiveWhen I was walking down the street the other day, I happened to notice a small brown leather wallet lying on the sidewalk. I picked it up and opened it to see if I could find out the owners name. There was nothing inside it

14、except some change and an old photograph - a picture of a woman and a young girl about twelve years old, who looked like the womans daughter. I put the photograph back and took the wallet to the police station, where I handed it to the desk sergeant (警官). Before I left, the sergeant took down my nam

15、e and address in case the owner might want to write and thank me. That evening I went to have dinner with my aunt and uncle. They had also invited a young woman so that there would be four people at the table. Her face was familiar. I was quite sure that we had not met before, but I couldn t remembe

16、r where I had seen her. In the course of conversation, however, the young woman happened to mention that she had lost her wallet that afternoon. All at once I realized where I had seen her. She was the young girl in the photograph, although she was now much older. She was very surprised, of course,

17、when I was able to describe her wallet to her. Then I explained that I had recognized her from the photograph I had found in the wallet. My uncle insisted on going to the police station immediately to claim the wallet. As the police sergeant handed it over, he said that it was amazing that I had not

18、 only found the wallet, but also the person who had lost it. （分数：10.00）(1).The wallet which the writer found _. （分数：2.00）A.was emptyB.had some money in itC.had a few coins and a photograph in itD.had an old photograph in it(2).The Writer opened the wallet because he wanted to _ in it. （分数：2.00）A.fin

21、 of the wallet were old friendsC.the finder and the loser of the wallet met at the police stationD.the woman knew the writer and his uncleOne thing almost everyone is agreed on , including Americans, is that they place a very high valuation upon success. Success does not necessarily mean material re

22、wards, but recognition of some sortpreferably measurable. If a boy turns out to be a preacher( 传 道 者 ) instead of a businessman, thats all right. But the bigger his church is, the more successful he is judged to be. A good many things contributed to this accent on success. There was the Puritan(清教徒的

23、) belief in the virtue of work, both for its own sake and because the rewards it brought were regarded as signs of Gods love. There was the richness of opportunity in a land waiting to be settled. There was the lack of a settled society with fixed ranks and classes, so that a man was certain to rise

24、 through achievement. There was the determination of an immigrant to gain in the new world what had been denied to him in the old, and on the part of his children an urge to throw off the immigrant onus(负担) by still more success and still more rise in a fluid and classless society. Brothers did not

25、compete within the family for the favor of the parents as in Europe, but worked hard for success in the outer world, along paths of their own choosing.（分数：10.00）(1).According to the first paragraph, _ （分数：2.00）A.success is highly valued in American society.B.success surely brings material rewards.C.

28、ss of opportunities in the new world.C.Lack of fixed social ranks and classes.D.Determination to deny the values of the new world.(5).It is suggested in the last paragraph that _ in the old world. （分数：2.00）A.children tended to compete for the favor of their parentsB.children were determined to throw
