Most of them lived well, but one of them was poor. His name was Clinton. Once a year they had supper in Bartons house. Barton was very rich. One evening Barton showed his friends a large gold coin at the supper table. The coin was passed around and praised by everyone. At the same time they were talking and talking. They soon forgot about the coin. After supper, Barton asked for his coin, but nobody could tell where it was. It was lost. One man said that everyone must be searched. One by one they turned out their pockets. Only Clinton refused. “I didnt steal the coin, and I will not be searched,” he said. After that, people turned their heads away from Clinton when they met him. He grew poorer. Soon his wife died. A few years later, Barton had his house repaired. The lost coin was found under the floor. Barton felt sorry and went to Clinton to apologize. “But,” he asked, “You knew the coin was not in your pocket. “Why did you refuse to be searched?” “Because I was a thief,” Clinton answered. “My pockets were full of food at that time.

B.keep up your spirit.C.keep seated quietly. D.change your spirit.48.The author mentions the example of Reverend Joan Carter to show that_.A.there are no immediate answers to your questions.B.e-mails cant keep working out a problem. C.the more questions you ask,the better answers youll get.D.changing your way of thinking might help you solve a problem.49.From the passage,we can know that the most important thing to improve your SQ is _.A.a peaceful mind B.deep thought C.spare time and hobbies D.good spirits CDear Sir, Im writing to complain about the service offered by your company.I told your service department on November 21 that my washing machine needed repairing.Your service engineers have since been here four times-on December 11, December 19, December 25 and January 5.The problem was found on the first visit and the wrong parts were brought by different engineers on the two next visits.

DI really love my job because I enjoy working with small children and like the challenges and awards from the job.I also think my work is important. There was a time when I thought I would never have that sort of career.I wasnt an excellent student because I didnt do much schoolwork.In my final term I started thinking what I might do and found I didnt have much to offer. I just accepted that I wasnt the type to have a career.I then found myself a job,looking after two little girls.It wasnt too bad at first.But the problems began when I agreed to live in,so that I would be there if my boss had to go out for business in the evening.We agreed that if I had to work extra hours one week,shed give me time off the next.but unfortunately,it didnt often work out.I was getting extremely tired and fed up,because I had too many late night and early morning with the children.One Sunday,I was in the park with the children,and met Megan who used to go to school with me.I told her about my situation.She suggested me that I should do a course and met a qualification if I wanted to work with children.I didnt think I would be accepted because I didnt take many exams in school.She persuaded me to phone the local college and they were really helpful.My experience counted for a lot and I got on a part-time course.
