The old man turned away sadly as his eyes were filled with tears. “Poor Mr. Dev…,”thought Indra sympathetically. Another day went past and there was still no sign of his family. Indra wondered how children could be so careless as to lose a parent like this.

Indra recalled the day the old man was admitted to her ward. He was thin and weak. He could not produce his identity card but he claimed he remembered the number. The hospital tried to contact hig family using the phone number he offered but it was in vain. Mr. Dev was treated for a lung infection and was now recovering. Soon, it would be time for him to be discharged (出院). Where would he go then? He did not look strong enough to live independentiy. Indra thtew down the file she was holding as anger rose within her.

“What's the matter?” asked Poh, Indra's colleague. “I'm just upset about old Mr. Dev,” Indra replied. Poh nodded with understanding. As a more experienced nurse, she had seen many similar cases and learned to control her feelings.

“Don’t worry too much. The hospital has contacted the civil - administration department (民政部门) and offered the information about the missing man, Mr. Dev will be placed in an old folks'home if no one comes to pick him up.” Poh said, patting Indra's arm comfortingly. Indra sighed. “I know. Its just that he eagerly expects his family to visit him. He cleans and tidies himself every morning and sits up to wait expectantly. You can see the eagerness in his eyes whenever the door opens. At the end offte day he goes to sleep with tears in his eyes. It makes me cry inside.”

Poh shook her head sadly. “He needs a miracle (奇迹).”

A few days later, the doctor confirmed that Mr. Dev was fit enough to be discharged. Indra was informed that an administrator had been waiting downstairs, ready to take Mr. Dev to an old folks'home.With a heavy heart, Indra helped Mr. Dev to get ready.

5 . A junior at Loyola High School in Los Angeles, Adam Faze,16, decided in October to organize a film festival. "I want to go to a film school and work in the industry, but Loyola has nothing like that, which is strange because we're right here in LA (a part of the city is Hollywood where films are made)," he said." So instead of sitting around and feeling unhappy, I decided to do something.”

The school was unenthusiastic. "Every year, students approach me with many projects that are really difficult to carry out," said Lance Ochsner, Adam's adviser. "I thought it wouldn't happen, but I gave him the go—ahead anyway."

Adam sent letters and made cold calls, and got no response. By January, he had little more than a single participant: Jordan Roberts, the father of a friend and a writer—director. (Mr. Roberts had' agreed to serve as a festival judge.)

Then Adam looked through a catalog for Loyola's annual money—raising event and noticed that someone had donated two tickets to a Sony movie premiere (the first public performance of a movie). That person turned out to be an Oscar campaigner. By working the connection, he managed to line up a festival speaker: Michael De Luca, a three—time Oscar nominee (someone who has been officially suggested for the prize of Oscar) for producing films like “The Social Network"

“Adam's energy, enthusiasm and fearlessness are influential,” Mr. De Luca wrote in an email. “I wish I had done this at my high school!” Adam got a local newspaper 'to write an article about Mr. De Luca's involvement(参与), and that started a sponsorship and submission (费助和作品提交) wildfire.

The Loyola Film Festival is set for Saturday and advertised as “the best in student filmmaking". It will feature 72 films in four categories.

But Adam is already focused on his next plan. In an email to a reporter, he wrote, “Could you mention that I'm still looking for a summer internship(实习)?”

1. Adam hoped that his high school could              .

A．make some new films	B．encourage students to watch films
C．get involved in film activities	D．allow students to enter film festivals

2. What was Lance Ochsner's attitude towards Adam's plan?

A．Curious.

B．Doubtful.

C．Surprised.

D．Encouraged.

3. How did Adam know of Michael De Luca?

A．From a donation list of Loyola's.	B．From the father of a friend.
C．From a telephone call.	D．From a letter.

4. What is the text mainly about?

A．The personal life of a 16-year-old teen.	B．Why the Loyola Film Festival is held.
C．A special high school in Los Angeles.	D．How a teen organized a film festival.

7 . I still can’t remember if I said goodbye to him.

That special day, I remember it so well. I got up as usual in the morning. Our dog, Gansett, was more than happy to give kisses. Giving him a pat, I pushed him aside, needing to get ready to go to school. As I stepped into the kitchen, Mom greeted me with a smile and I responded the same way. Quickly, I finished up my breakfast and then got ready fast with my school stuff. I dashed out of the door with Mom following, and after telling Gansett to stay inside, she gave up and let him come along. As we walked to the car, Mom opened the trunk for him to jump in, which he did with a huge grin on his furry face. I jumped in and shut my door, pulling my seatbelt across my body. We pulled out of the driveway, and fifteen minutes later, we were at the school. I jumped out of the car and ran inside, not even looking back.

Dad picked me up at the end of the day, and I knew almost immediately that something was wrong. He didn’t stay and chat with people like he had before, just telling me to get into the car. I was getting terrified. He sat me down, and with great gentleness told me that Gansett had died. I laughed in his face when he said that, because Gansett had been perfectly fine that morning.

Dad just kept staring at me, with an I-can’t-believe-it-happened-either look in his eyes. I realized that he wasn’t joking. I burst into tears, and cried for the rest of the day. I was later able to say goodbye to Gansett’s body, but not the three-year-old dog that I loved with all my heart.

I wish I could remember if I said goodbye to him that morning, but I can’t, and not knowing that will be always bothering me.

A．He was very close to the author.

B．He woke up the author every morning.

C．He was unwilling to go to school with the author.

8 . 阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。

“Mama,” I screamed, “why is Ink Spot sitting in Mrs. Cleary’s window?” I couldn’t believe my eyes. I was about to step into my house when I saw Ink Spot combing himself in the window across the street. He was my cat, not Mrs. Cleary’s. She already had twelve cats; she couldn’t have all the cats in the neighborhood.

Ink Spot was my special cat. Santa Claus had left him in my Christmas stocking last year. How I loved him and held him in a close hug that winter morning. Mama and daddy smiled with pleasure as my eyes danced with joy.

I had always wanted a pet but the apartment we lived in didn’t allow anyone to have one. Then mama told daddy she was going to have another baby.

We moved out of the old apartment that March into a nice three-bedroom house on the other side of town. Da’Von arrived in September. The family was filled with joy, but I couldn’t see anything joyful in a crying red-faced baby who took up all mama’s time. About that same time, I was packed off to kindergarten. The school bus picked me up on the corner in the morning and dropped me off at the small spot in the afternoon. I put up with it just like I put up with everything else.

With everything going on at home, no one noticed me. That was until Aunt Calvina came for a visit. “That child needs just as much attention as the baby,” auntie complained when she noticed how I sat in the corner with my head bowed. Things changed after that. Mama paid more attention to me and daddy planned little trips for us over the weekends. It cheered me up a bit.

That Christmas was special for me because Ink Spot was in my stocking. The tiny black and white kitten was just the friend I needed to make me feel as though I were someone again. Every night, he curled up   beside me in bed and he was there for me after school when I raced home just to be with him.
