13、I don’t like talking openly about my feelings. That’s probably why I am writing this, because it seems an easier way of telling you how thankful I am to you.
When I first got ill two years ago and had to be taken to hospital, you were the first person I called to tell, maybe because I knew Mum wasn’t going to answer her phone, but probably because you are the first person I call in an emergency.
As one illness turned into another and I was stuck in hospital for weeks, feeling sorry for myself, you were still at my beside trying to talk to me to cheer me up. The illness hit my kidney(肾) and we then realized that I was going to need a transport sooner or later. You put yourself forward to be tested as soon as possible and it turned out you were a perfect match.
Then last year, in March, we both went down for the operation. I woke a few hours afterwards and felt better. It wasn’t until the following day that we got to see each other again. We hugged silently and asked one another how we were. But I never said the words I should have--- thank you. To this day, I still haven’t said those words to you for my kidney.
In the month after the operation, when we were both at home recovering, I made you lunch, went for walks with you. It’s my way of saying that I care for you a great deal and that I am truly thankful for what you did for me.
I want you to know that my silence towards you and the times you tried to talk to me and got nothing weren’t because of you. Maybe one day when you will read this, I hope you know that in my own silent way, I am for ever thankful.

15、Circle of Knowledge

Most students today depend on the rapidness and convenience of the Internet to provide the facts they look for. Given a research task，many students make use of a website known as Wikipedia，which is available（可获得的）to all users of the Internet. However，before the introduction of the Internet, students journeyed to the library to search for facts，figures and stories in a huge collection of books known as encyclopedias（百科全书） The word“encyclopedia"，meaning“whole circle of knowledge”，comes from the ancient Greek language. The first encyclopedias were organized by topic. These early collections were the works of a single writer. The first book of this kind was written by a Roman，Pliny the Elder, nearly 2,000 years ago. Plinys collection remained popular for almost 1,500 years. Producing such huge works was a difficult task. So experts began to work together, sharing responsibility for writing about different topics. The first set of books to use many authors was An Universal Dictionary of Arts and Sciences published in 1728. The multiple-author model became the most widely used format.
Today there are many encyclopedias in different media. The online encyclopedia Wikipedia was started in 2001. Users can visit the free website on the Internet. But the online information has mistakes. Users are warned that newer articles may have large mistakes. Printed encyclopedias are more or less free of mistakes. However, it is expensive to make sure of the correctness.
Wikipedia is trying to improve its correctness. They employ（雇用）1，000“fact checkers" to look through the website and correct mistakes. The website managers also state that older articles are more complete and balanced. Encyclopedia Britannica has even made moves away from being a single-format book too. The company started a free online version. The free articles are short;however, longer articles are available after users pay for them.
Both online and print editions（版本）have disadvantages. The mistakes can be corrected，but the process takes time. Print editions are resistant（顽固的）to such mistakes. They are also resistant to something else：change. Sometimes new information becomes available after an encyclopedia is printed. Publishers can wait to include the new information in the next edition，but that might be a year or more away.
More changes are likely for encyclopedias，whether in print or online. As time goes by，the knowledge of humankind will still need to be recorded，sorted，and stored. The story of how that information will look in 20，50 or even 100 years is still unwritten.
1．What is the second paragraph mainly about?
A．The readers of encyclopedias.
B．The journey to the library.
C．The history of encyclopedias.
D．The change to the library.
2．The problem of online encyclopedia Wikipedia might be that
A．the services cost too much
B．new articles cannot be found
C．users cannot visit the website
D．the information has mistakes
3．We can team from the passage that ．
A．the future look of information is unknown to the world
B．older articles on the website are usually easy and short
C．the first encyclopedias were the works of many writers
D．print editions of encyclopedias change information fast
4．What is the purpose of writing the passage?
A．To suggest reading printed encyclopedias.
B．To advise people to use online encyclopedias.
C．To sell some editions of encyclopedias online.
D．To introduce the development of encyclopedias.、

17、 Justin and Mary woke up early, even though they were on vacation at their uncle’s lake house. The night before, Uncle Thomas told them about the Foggy  Figure (雾怪) that lived in the lake. Justin and Mary decided to see it before their vacation ended.
“Is it foggy outside?” asked Mary, as Justin looked out of the window.
“Yes! Let’s go!” said Justin.
It was only 5:00 a.m., so everyone else in the house was still asleep. Mary and Justin came to the boat dock (码头). They saw thick fog over the lake.
“Do you see anything?” asked Mary.
“Nothing. Do you think Uncle Thomas was just trying to scare us with that story?”
Uncle Thomas did have a good imagination. He told Justin and Mary many stories, but this was the first scary story. Mary had a feeling that it wasn’t made up.
Mary shook her head. “Remember what Uncle Thomas said? The Foggy Figure lives in the lake. We’re on the dock. Maybe that’s why we can’t see him.”
“You want to go out on the water?” asked Justin.
Mary looked around, trying to find Uncle Thomas’s boat, but the fog was too thick.
They walked towards the end of the dock and saw the outline (轮廓) of the boat. They carefully got into the boat.
Mary was nervous. “See anything?” They looked around, and slowly, the fog began to lift. Mary turned around and shouted, “The Foggy Figure!” It was in the boat with them!
Justin and Mary hugged each other in fear, but then they heard a laugh. It was from Uncle Thoma
