When I entered Berkley, I hoped to win a scholarship(奖学金). As a Straight-A student all the way through, I believed I could take tough subjects and really learn something. One such course was World Literature given by Professor Jayne. I was very interested in the ideas he taught in class.
When I took the first exam, I was shocked to find a 77, C-plus, on my test paper, for English was always my best subject. I went to Professor Jayne, who listened to my ___75___ but he refused to do anything about it.
I decided to try haarder, ___76___ I didn’t know what that meant because school always seemed easy for me. I read the books more carefully, but got another 77. Again, I reasoned with Professor Jayne. Again, he listened patiently but wouldn’t ____77___.

A week later, I was surprised to find I got an A. I hurried into Professor Jayne’s office. He seemed to be expecting me.“If I gave you the grade as you ___80___, you wouldn’t continue to work hard.”
I stared at him, realizing what he said was correct. I had worked my head off, as I had never done before. I was surprised when my course grade arrived:A-plus. It was the only A-plus given.

It is never easy when a friend doesn’t tell the the truth. This is something that hurts the person who has been lived to and f___81___ it ends up hurting the person who did the lying as well. Lying is never something that is easy to forget or even to forgive. But it is something that you should try to understand so that you can be a better friend.

S___85___, a friend lies for other reasons. One of these reasons might be to protect your feelings. For example, he might lie about h___86___ silly you look or what stupid words you have said. You must decide if truthfulness(真实)is more important than your feelings in this type of situation.

D. Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题):(12分)
Researchers from two universities in Briain recently carried out a very interesting project. They aimed to find out what modern family needs from their home. The lucky family chosen to take part in the project was the Joneses:parents Paul and Eve and their two sons, Jimmy(16)and Harry(13). They have just spent two months living in a specially designed hi-tech future house, where cameras recorded everything they did.
TV while you bathe
So what’s in this modern house?It boasts(夸耀)five bedrooms and five bathrooms. The sitting area has a huge TV and a digital picture frame --- you can decide which photos you want to appear and change the picture as often as you like. The baths all have waterproof TV screens and DVD players. There is a remote control(遥控器)in every room which controls everything in the house from the lights to the cooker. The floors are all made of glass and all have underfloor heating. The windows clean themselves and there is even a robot called“Iron Man”to do the ironing. Dirty washing goes into a lift which takes the clothes automatically to the washing machine. The“Iron Man”then does all the ironing.
So how did it go?
The Jones family were over the moon to be chosen to spend some time in the house. Here’s what they said:
Paul:It was great. The house was so comfortable. One day our friends called round with their dog. The dog felt so warm and comfortable;he even slept on the floor! Oh, but there was one problem. One night we were all in bed and all the lights switched themselves on for no reason. It was a bit frightening!
Jimmy:I loved it, but I wish there had been a robot to help me with my homework.
Harry:Staying in was as much fun as going out!
Eve:I loved the TV in the bath but I never watched it before going to work in the morning. If I did, I don’t think I’d ever get out!
The Jones family are now back in their very ordinary home, but planning some hi-tech additions as soon as they can afford them!
The experts hope that results from their project will help developers meet the needs of a 21st –century family. One of the experts wrote a few sentences about his findings on this project:
