12、herself 答案： C 完型填空 Ever since I was little I loved doing things for other people. As I got older I began doing random ( 随意的 ) things for people. For example, during holidays, such as Christmas, I would make an extra 21 along with the ones for my relatives. Then I would go and find someone in the gro
13、cery store and just hand it to them and walk away. It was so much fun. I admit, 22 , the first time I did it I was so 23 . I didnt know who to give the card to. So I said a little prayer and knew that the 24 person would just appear. About that time an elderly man ran 25 me with his shopping cart. I
14、t was an accident, and he 26 a million times. We smiled and he walked away, and I knew that he was the one. Later I found him in a different isle(过道 ), handed him the card, and smiled. I said Happy Holidays, and then walked away. It was so great, and the 27 I had afterwards was unexplainable. Then o
15、ne day I came across your website (the coolest website ever) and 28 some Smile Cards. When they came in, I started a new project. When I go into a store, I locate a person who I think needs a 29 . Then, I buy a flower, a carnation, to be exact, and 30 it in the most beautiful paper they have. I tie
16、lots of ribbons on it to make it 31 , and then slip the smile card into an envelope and 32 it to the flower. After that, I pay for it and explain to the cashier 33 it is to go to (I live in a pretty small town so its easy to get the help of the cashiers). They then give it to that person when they c
17、ome through. Once in a while Ill buy the flower and then just leave it for the cashier. That gets smiles. My favorite time was when I picked out this elderly woman who was walking around the 34 somewhat confused. I had come across her numerous times and she only smiled slightly once. When she came t
18、o the check out (I was watching from outside) her face 35 and the smile was the biggest I had ever seen. Later that week the cashier whom I had had 36 me told me that the lady had been so surprised and while she was walking out with the grocery bag to her car, she was planning what she was going to
19、do for someone else. It was awesome. I absolutely love the random acts of kindness cards. I 37 at least two in my purse and others in my car, locker and everywhere I go. As I mentioned, my club, STARS, is doing a Random Acts of Kindness Project with the smile cards so they also are using them. I loo
20、k forward to hearing about their success. Its really great. I 38 used them in school. I bought my entire math class cans of pop after lunch one day. They came in from lunch and a can of pop and a smile card were setting 39 that day. It totally lightened the mood in the class that day 40 we were stud

He included them in
25、his suicide note. They mark an ignoble end to a noble life, the leave taking of a truly great man. The same words could now be said for the company he left behind. Actually, the Eastman Kodak Company is through. It has been mismanaged financially, technologically and competitively. For 20 years, its
26、 leaders have foolishly spent down the patrimony of a centurys prosperity. One of Americas bedrock brands is about to disappear, the Kodak moment has passed. But George Eastman is not how he died, and the Eastman Kodak Company is not how it is being killed. Though the ends be needless and premature,
27、 they must not be allowed to overshadow the greatness that came before. Few companies have done so much good for so many people, or defined and lifted so profoundly the spirit of a nation and perhaps the world. It is impossible to understand the 20th Century without recognizing the role of the Eastm
28、an Kodak Company. Kodak served mankind through entertainment, science, national defense and the stockpiling of family memories. Kodak took us to the top of Mount Suribachi and to the Sea of Tranquility. It introduced us to the merry old Land of Oz and to stars from Charlie Chaplin to John Wayne, and
29、 Elizabeth Taylor to Tom Hanks. It showed us the shot that killed President Kennedy, and his brother bleeding out on a kitchen floor, and a fallen Martin Luther King Jr. on the hard balcony of a Memphis motel. When that sailor kissed the nurse, and when the spy planes saw missiles in Cuba, Kodak was
30、 the eyes of a nation. From the deck of the Missouri to the grandeur of Monument Valley, Kodak took us there. Virtually every significant image of the 20th Century is a gift to posterity from the Eastman Kodak Company. In an era of easy digital photography, when we can take a picture of anything at
31、any time, we cannot imagine what life was like before George Eastman brought photography to people. Yes, there were photographers, and for relatively large sums of money they would take stilted pictures in studios and formal settings. But most people couldnt afford photographs, and so all they had t
32、o remember distant loved ones, or earlier times of their lives, was memory. Children could not know what their parents had looked like as young people, grandparents far away might never learn what their grandchildren looked like. Eastman Kodak allowed memory to move from the uncertainty of recollect
33、ion, to the permanence of a photograph. But it wasnt just people whose features were savable; it was events, the sacred and precious times that families cherish. The Kodak moment, was humanitys moment. And it wasnt just people whose features were savable; it was events, the precious times that famil
34、es cherish. Kodak let the fleeting moments of birthdays and weddings, picnics and parties, be preserved and saved. It allowed for the creation of the most egalitarian art form. Lovers could take one anothers pictures, children were photographed walking out the door on the first day of school, the pe
35、rson releasing the shutter decided what was worth recording, and hundreds of millions of such decisions were made. And for centuries to come, those long dead will smile and dance and communicate to their unborn progeny. Family history will be not only names on paper, but smiles on faces. The cash fl
36、ow not just provided thousands of people with job, but also allowed the companys founder to engage in some of the most generous philanthropy in Americas history. Not just in Kodaks home city of Rochester, New York, but in Tuskegee and London, and at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He bank
37、rolled two historically black colleges, fixed the teeth of Europes poor, and quietly did good wherever he could. While doing good, Kodak did very well. Over all the years, all the Kodakers over all the years are essential parts of that monumental legacy. They prospered a great company, but they with
38、 that company blessed the world. That is what we should remember about the Eastman Kodak Company. Like its founder, we should remember how it lived, not how it died. History will forget the small men who have scuttled this company. But history will never forget Kodak. 【小题 1】 According to the passage
39、, which of the following is to blame for the fall of Kodak A The invention of easy digital photography B The poor management of the company C The early death of George Eastman D The quick rise of its business competitors 【小题 2】 It can be learnt from the passage that George Eastman . A died a natural
40、 death of old age. B happened to be on the spot when President Kennedy was shot dead. C set up his company in the capital of the US before setting up its branches all over the world. D was not only interested in commercial profits, but also in the improvement of other peoples lives. 【小题 3】 Before Ge
41、orge Eastman brought photography to people, . A no photos has ever been taken of people or events B photos were very expensive and mostly taken indoors C painting was the only way for people to keep a record of their ancestors. D grandparents never knew what their grandchildren looked like. 【小题 4】 T
42、he person releasing the shutter (Paragraph 5) was the one . A who took the photograph B who wanted to have a photo taken C whose decisions shaped the Eastman Kodak Company D whose smiles could long be seen by their children 【小题 5】 What is the writers attitude towards the Eastman Kodak Company A Disa
43、pproving B Respectful C Regretful D Critical 【小题 6】 Which do you think is the best title for the passage A Great Contributions of Kodak B Unforgettable moments of Kodak C Kodak Is Dead D History of Eastman Kodak Company 答案： 【小题 1】 B 【小题 2】 D 【小题 3】 B 【小题 4】 A 【小题 5】 B 【小题 6】 C I lost my sight when I
44、 was four years old by falling off a box car in a freight yard in Atlantic City and landing on my head. Now I am thirty two. I can slightly remember the brightness of sunshine and what color red is. It would be wonderful to see again, but a calamity(灾难 ) can do strange things to people. It occurred
45、to me the other day that I might not have come to love life as I do if I hadnt been blind. I believe in life now. I am not so sure that I would have believed in it so deeply, otherwise. I dont mean that I would prefer to go without my eyes. I simply mean that the loss of them made me appreciate the
46、more what I had left. Life, I believe, asks a continuous series of adjustments to reality. The more readily a person is able to make these adjustments, the more meaningful his own private world becomes. The adjustment is never easy. I was totally confused and afraid. But I was lucky. My parents and
47、my teachers saw something in me-a potential to live, you might call it-which I didnt see, and they made me want to fight it out with blindness. The hardest lesson I had to learn was to believe in myself. That was basic. If I hadnt been able to do that, I would have collapsed (崩溃 ) and become a chair
48、 rocker on the front porch for the rest of my life. When I say belief in myself I am not talking about simply the kind of self confidence that helps me down an unfamiliar staircase alone. That is part of it. But I mean something bigger than that: an assurance（确信） that I am, despite imperfections, a real, positive person; that somewhere in the sweeping, intricate（错综复杂的） pattern of people there is a special place where I can make myself fit. It took me years to discover and st
