Quietly I 33 out of bed and picked up the pencil and paper from the dresser, and then tiptoed into the hall. The 34 from the living room shone dimly. I knew Mother was downstairs still doing some sewing.
I quickly 35 a note asking Mother to excuse me for being so 36. I didn’t want my sisters to know my 37 so I added a postscript, “Please don’t let anyone else see this.” Then I 38 moved into my parents’ bedroom and put the letter under Mother’s pillow.
The next morning when I 39 my bed after breakfast, I 40 found a return note under my pillow. Mother wrote that she loved me and 41 me. This became my way of apologizing whenever I talked 42 or disobeyed. Mother always left a return note, but she never 43 our under-the-pillow messages in front of the family. Even when we were 44, she never mentioned them when we sisters 45 our childhood.
When Mother passed away, I had to go through her personal belongings. In her desk was a bundle of notes tied with a faded ribbon. On top was a message in handwriting which read, “In the event of my death, please 46 these.”
I 47 the package and glanced at the handwriting on the bottom. To my 48, I recognized my childish writing, “PS. Please don’t let anyone else see this. Love, Edie.” I gently placed the unopened bundle in the 49 along with other things for the rubbish burner. “Lord,” I prayed, “make me like 50.”

四、阅读理解（共20小题；共30分）
A
I wasn't interested in becoming a model at first. I worked as a receptionist in a beauty shop during high school. It was in South Dakota. A woman who had worked for Vogue—a famous fashion magazine said to me, "Why don't you go to New York and be a model?"
So I went to New York at eighteen. I went to the first model agency, they thought that I was too long-waisted. It was too bad since I came all the way from South Dakota. I did an information check on the internet and found that Hunting Hartford had just bought the agency. I looked up in the telephone book and dialed. Then I went there. About half an hour later, the man who had just taken over the agency—he had been a male model before—came in. I was just staring at this unfamiliar man when he said, "You! Come into my office!"
How do you feel as a fashion model? Quite OK, I should say. But you stop thinking when you are working. It takes a lot of nervous energy as well because the camera goes one, two, three very fast and you have to move very fast. I like my job because it gives me freedom. I can have half a day off to do things I like. I can't do that if I do a normal job. I never like becoming a secretary. They have to sit in the office for eight hours a day, facing the same people.
Most models, after one or two years, can't be still very interested in it. But I like being a model. Maybe I was a born one, as many people say.

In America, drivers' education is part of the regular high school curriculum. Every student in his or her second year of high school is required to take a class in driver's education. However, unlike other courses, it is not given during the regular school year. Instead it is a summer course.
The course is divided into two parts: class time for learning laws and regulations and driving time to practice driving. Class time is not unlike any other class. The students have a text from which they study the basic laws they must know to pass the written driving test that is given to anyone wanting to get a driver's license(驾照).
Driving time is a chance for the students to get behind the wheel (steering wheel) and practice starting, steering(驾驶), backing up, parking, switching lanes, turning corners, and all the other maneuvers(操作) required to drive a car. Each student is required to drive a total of six hours. The students and the instructor go out driving for two-hour blocks of time. Thus, each student gets half an hour driving time per outing. The instructor and "driver" sit in the front seats and the other three students sit in the back.
Driver's Ed cars are unlike other cars in which they have two sets of brakes(刹车), one on the driver's side and one on the other side where the instructor sits. Thus, if the student driver should run into difficulties the instructor can take over. The car also has another special feature. On the top of the car is a sign that reads "Student Driver". That lets nearby drivers know that they should use extra caution(谨慎) because the student driver is a beginning driver, not very experienced and prone to (易于…的) driving slowly.
After the student has passed the driver's education course and reached the appropriate(适当的) age to drive (this age differs in every state but in most cases the person must be 16 years old), they can go to a designated(指定的) state office to take their driver's test, which is made up of an eye examination, a written test, and a road test. The person must pass all the three tests in order to be given a driver's license. If the person did well in his or her driver's education class, he or she will pass the test with flying colors and get a driver's license.
56. In America, the driver's course mentioned above is  .

A.
considered as part of the advanced education

B.
given to anyone wanting to get a driver's license

C.
carried on at the same time as other courses

required of all the students of Grade 2 in high schools
57. To prevent accidents, a driver's ED car  .

A.

B.
has two sets of brakes

C.
is big enough to hold five persons

D.

58. We can infer that the students are required to   in their whole driving practice.

A.
go out driving for twelve times

B.
spend at least six hours driving

C.
drive for two-hour blocks of time

D.
get half an hour driving
59. Which of the following does not agree with the requirements for the students wanting to get their driver's license?

A.
They must be 16 years of age.

B.
They should go to have their driver's course.

C.
They must have their eyes examined.

D.
They ought to do well in their driver's course.

happily

successfully

colorfully

quickly
C
