About ten years ago, I was on a plane going west, and a young woman
1
and sat across the aisle (過道) from me. I noticed her for two reasons. She was very attractive, and she was holding a teddy bear about half her
2
. I teased her by asking if she had a
3
for the bear.She laughed and said no.
About halfway through the flight she
4
over and told me she was going to Tucson to enter rehab（康復治療）. She
5
to share her life story with me. She had been working as a dancer
in a nightclub. That
6
had led her down a dark
7
to drugs and alcohol. As I listened to her story, I was
8
at all she had gone through. I listened to all she shared and told her I was sure she was going to
9
it.
At the end of the
10
, she thanked me for listening to her.
A few years later, I got a
11
in the mail saying, “Wow, it’s been five years since we met on that plane. It is
12
how you touched my life.” She went on to tell me that she had
13
to stay away from drugs, and had been working for a radio station. She felt she had achieved things she could not have
14
that
day on the plane. We agreed to set up a time to get
15
.
When I saw her, she was
16
_ the attractive young woman I remembered. She told me that that little
17
we had had turned her life around. She had got on the plane
18
anything would work in her life, and my affirmation of her as a person and of her
19
had given her the last bit of
20
she needed to work through her problems.
The young woman taught me it’s never too late to make a new start in life.

One day, an expert in time-management was speaking to a group of business students. To make the point 1
, he used an illustration.
As he stood in front of the group, he said, “Okay, time for a quiz.” He then pulled out a wide-mouth jar and set it on the table. Then he
2
placed about a dozen fist-sized rocks, one by one, into the jar.
When the jar was filled to the
3
and no more rocks would fit inside, he asked, “Is this jar
4
?” Everyone in the class said, “Yes.”
“Really?” Then he
5
under the table and pulled out a bucket of gravel（沙礫，石子），dumped some in and
6
the jar, causing pieces of gravel to work themselves down into the space
7
the big rocks. Then he asked the group the same question. “Probably not.” One of them answered. “Good!” he replied.
He reached under the table and
8
a bucket of sand. He started dumping the sand in the jar and it went into all the
9
left between the rocks and the gravel.
10
he asked the question. “No!” the class shouted. “Good!” Then he grabbed a can of water and began to pour it in
11
the jar was filled to the brim.
Then the expert in time-management looked at the class and asked, “What is the
12
of this illustration?” It is such a seemingly easy question that one
13
student raised his hand and said, “It is, however full your schedule is, if you try really hard you can always
14
some more things in it.”
“No,” the speaker replied, “The truth it teaches us is that you will
15
get them in at all if you don’t put the big rocks in first.
16
the big rocks in your life are, do things that you love and
17
for yourself. In your schedule if you value the little stuff then you’ll fill your life with
18
things and you will never have the real quality time you need to spend on the big, important stuff. So, tonight, or in the morning, when you are
19
on this short story, ask yourself what are the ‘big rocks’ in your life? Then put those in your
20
first.”

24．和上一題一樣，壇子裝到頂部了，那就是滿了。填A。
25．這題是詞義辨析：send派、送reach到達、伸手manage管理feel感覺，再結合下文pulled out a bucket of gravel，說明是把伸到桌子下面。選B。

30．文章第三段提到：he asked, “Is this jar
4
? 第四段說道：Then he asked the group the same question. 所以這里是Once more he asked the question. 他再次問了那個問題。選D。

35．句意是：如果你不先放進大的石頭，你永遠不會把它們都放進去。選A。

Winter lost her

when she was a baby. She got it caught in a trap used to
4__
crabs. Isabel, who had a similar experience to Winter, once had a
5
life.
6
, when she was 2 a tumor（腫瘤）on her foot
7
her leg.

8
artificial limbs. In Isabel’s case, it’s an artificial leg and foot. In Winter’s case, it’s an artificial tail.
In November, Isabel will travel from her home to Clearwater, Florida, to
9
Winter. Clearwater is the site of the aquarium（水族館）where Winter has lived since she was
10
from that trap.
