Every day Lillian Weber makes another dress for a small child she’ll never meet. “I could probably make two a day，but I only make one.” she says . The dresses are collected and sent overseas to little girls in Africa by a Christian group called “Little Dresses for Africa”．
In the past two years she's made more than 840 dresses and she plans to make 150 more by May 6th of next year．You see，by next May，Lillian will turn 100 years old and it will be her one thousandth dress．In Lillian’s Scott County farmhouse are completed dresses for little girls，made from a pattern，but each with extra individual details，designed to give each child a little extra pride．
“She personalizes them all,” says Lillian’s daughter，Linda Purcell．“It’s not like good enough that she makes the dresses．and she has to put something on the front to make it look special , to give it her touch(装饰) .”

B
It was Saturday morning. I heard loud noises of moving furniture in the next room. I could almost feel the excitement of John who was soon going to get a room of his own. I remember my own feelings when I was 13. I knew how much he longed for his right to privacy (私人空间) when he was sharing a room with his younger brother, Robot. He said, “Mum, Can I please have a room of my own? I could use Jeff’s. He won’t mind.”
It was true that Jeff had graduated from college and flown from the nest. But would he mind? The room was the place where I told him a thousand stories and we had a thousand talks. As close as we were, though, the time came when Jeff needed a door between us. His life was spreading into areas that had less to do with family. I no longer could-or should-know everything about him.
It turned out that getting Jeff’s permission was easy. He said, “Of course, Mum, it would be selfish of me to hold on to it.” Then his voice softened, “Mum, I won’t be living at home again-you know that.” Behind his glasses, his eyes were lit with all the love. There were no door closed here-they had all opened up again.
As John and I were cleaning the room, I fixed my eyes on Jeff’s things around me and could almost touch the little boy I knew was gone forever. I looked at the room and, in my heart, I let it go. To hold on would be, as Jeff said, selfish. Now it was time for John, shouldering through the door, his eyes bright with promise of independence, to disappear behind the door. It was time for letting go to happen again.
45. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. John was moving to live with his brother. B. John was eager to get a room of his own.
C. Jeff volunteered to give his room to John. D. Jeff refused to let his brother have his room.
46. The underlined sentence in the second paragraph probably means “______”.
A. Jeff finally flew out of the house B. Jeff would have less to do with his family
C. Jeff needed his right to privacy D. Jeff got tired of those familiar stories
47. How did the author feel about her children’s sense of independence?
A. Delighted. B. Jealous. C. Confused. D. Embarrassed.
48. It can be inferred from the passage that ______.
A. the children did not like to live with adults
B. all her three kids made the author feel depressed
C. none of the members in the family thought the same way
D. the author loved and missed the time together with her kids
C
The news that Zhou Hao chose to drop out from Beijing University and transfer to a technical college raised a heated discussion among high school students. The following are some of the students’ views.
Fan Xianjie: I support Zhou’s choice. Zhou went to Beijing University because of the pressure from his parents and teachers, who ignored his interests. Now he has made his own choice to drop out and do what he really wants to do. His bravery deserves our respect and understanding.
Dan Jinyu: I do respect Zhou’s decision. But If I were him, I would definitely have followed my heart at the very beginning, because dropping out and then learning something new wastes a lot of time. Zhou has now got what he wanted. But not everyone is as brave as him. So we should think twice and try our best to reach our goals when making decisions.
Luo Jiayin: Zhou’s surprising choice is mostly because of his parents’ ignorance toward his interests in the first place. Parents should give their kids more freedom to choose what their kids really want instead of what they think is right.
Luo Zhouhai: Zhou is brave to pursue his dream and has the right to choose a major that he is really interested in. Nowadays, there are still many people who value famous universities’ diplomas more than a person’s actual skills. As our society develops, this situation will change and more and more Zhou Haos will appear.
Zhao Chengyi: This incident should make all the universities in China reflect on themselves. Why did Zhou choose to transfer to a technical college? Apart from his own personal reasons, Beijing University’s lack of options in its subjects also contributed to the drop-out. To prevent such things from happening in future, universities should pay more attention to students’ voices.
Tao Ruyi: I think Zhou Hao might not have made a sensible decision. He must have made great efforts to get admitted to Beijing University. It was a pity that he dropped out.
49. How many students totally supported Zhou’s dropping out?
A. Two. B. Four C. Five D. Six
50. What can we infer from Zhao Chengyi’s words?
A. It was Zhou Hao’s parents that were to blame for the incident.
B. It was wrong for Zhou Hao to drop out from Beijing University.
C. Universities should think of more options in their subjects for their students.
D. Beijing University should try to bring out students’ potential to learn more.
51. The author’s attitude towards Zhou’s incident is _____.
A. supportive B. negative C. critical D. unmentioned
52. What do you think is the best title for this passage?
A. Kids’ interests should be greatly valued
B. Different opinions about Zhou’s incident
C. Zhou’s incident shocked the college students
D. Zhou’s bravery deserves respect and understanding

Many of us dream about getting a good job, but you can never predict for sure which questions you'll be asked in a job interview. However, some are so commonly asked that you should expect to hear them, and more importantly, spend time preparing your responses to them instead of leaving them to chance.
1. “Why are you leaving your current job?”
Interviewers ask this, because sometimes the question produces relevant information. They may learn if you were fired for poor p
