   California-- Upset by the war in Iraq, Julia Wilson expressed her anger and impatience with
President Bush last spring on her web page on MySpaee. com. She posted a picture of the president,
wrote Kill Bushacross the top and drew a sword stabbing his outstretched hand. She later replaced her
page after learning in her eighth-grede history class that such threats are a federal offense.
   It was too late. Federal authorities had found the page and placed Wilson on their checklist. They
finally reached her this week in her biology class. The 14-year-old was taken out of class Wednesday and
questioned for about 15 minutes by two Secret Service agents. The incident has upset her parents, who
said the agents should have included them when questioning their daughter.
   The teenager said the agents questioning led her to tears. I wasnt dangerous, said Wilson, an
honor student who describes herself as politically enthusiastic. Im a peace-loving person. Im against
the war in Iraq. Im not going to kill the president.
   Her mother, Kirstie Wilson, said two agents showed up at the familys home Wednesday afternoon,
questioned her and promised to return once her daughter was home from school.
   After they left, Kirstie Wilson sent a text message to her daughters cell phone, asking her to come
straight home and telling her that two men from the secret service wanted to talk with her.
   But moments later, Kirsfie Wilson received a text message from her daughter saying agents had
pulled her out of class.
   Julia Wilson said the agents threatened her, saying she could be sent to court for making the threat.
They yelled at me a lot, she said. They were unnecessarily mean.
   Wilson and her parents said the agents were justified in questioning her over her MySpace. eom
posting. But they said the agents went too far by not waiting until she was out of school and the agents
should have more quickly figured out they werent dealing with a real danger.
   Assistant Principal Paul Robinon said the agents gave him the impression the girls mother knew
they were planning to question her daughter at school. There is no legal requirement that parents be
notified.
   This has been an on-going problem, said Ann Brick, a lawyer with the American Civil Liberties
Union in San Francisco.
   Former governors Pete Wilson and Gray Davis vetoed (否决) bills that would have required that
parents give pemaission or be present when their children are questioned at schoul by law enforcement
officers,

   When Nathan Winograd announced that he was leaving his job as a lawyer in California to nm an
animal shelter in Tompkins County, New York, his father looked at him for a long minute and then
asked, What do dogs and eats need a lawyer for?
   The move meant giving up eight weeks vacation, an office with a view of the San Francisco Bay and a big house among the redwoods, and moving to a rural area known for its harsh winters. But Winograd s wife, Jennifer, also an animal lover, was all for it. So they packed everything they owned, and with two young children, plus two dogs, and a bunch of cats Winograd had rescued, drove cross-country.
   On the second day, they had no room for six more puppies they received. They found an old horse
trough, failed it with hay and nestled the animals inside. They placed it next to the front desk, and within
a day or two, all six had homes, adopted by people who walked into the shelter and couldn t resist.
   Blind dogs, eats with missing limbs-- all find homes. There is no dog or cat too old, too ugly or
too undesirable not to be adopted by someone, says Winograd.
   Today, Tompkins County is considered the only no-kill county in the United States. Nine out of ten
dogs and cats that come through the shelter doors axe saved. Only animals with incurable injuries or illnesses, and the truly evil, are put down. The national average is half of all dogs and 70 percent of
cats, totaling more than four million animals last year alone.
   Even though he drives an old car that leaks when it rains, and his family lives on a tight budget
while his classmates from Stanford Law earn six-figure salaries, Winograd says he s doing what he d
always wanted to do when he grew up: nm an animal shelter and save all the animals.
   As a young district lawyer, he kept his goal in mind, starting when he raised his first animal cruelty
case. A man was accused of intentionally setting his brown cat on fire. Winograd made his case, and the
abusive owner was sentenced to prison.
   It was the first of many such cases, and he raised each with vigor. But the senseless violence,
neglect and ignorance never failed to shock him. He decided simply, I need to get to the other side and
start saving these animals.
   Now, Winograd is helping to save thousands, even millions. Im convinced that a no-kill nation is
possible. Im just here trying to shorten the time until it arrives.
60. What was his father s response when Nathan Winograd left his job as a lawyer in California?
   A. He was all for it.             B. He was strongly against it.
   C. He was greatly pnzzled.            D. He was very angry.
61. How did Winograd successfully save so many animals?

   This website is meant for the short story and for those interested in reading light articles.
   If you have a classic short story you would like added here, please don t be shy about e-mailing
me in this regard as I would be happy to give your favorite story consideration. I have a fairly large
collection of short stories; however, if you want to send a story to me, I would appreciate it (this would
save me scanning time).
   Please note three things about this site. One, some of the biographies are not available (the focus of
this site is the story, not the biographies). If they are not in the book from which I am scanning the
story, I will not go through my collection looking for a bio. Two, I will be focusing on shorter short
stories. No Tolstoi or F. Scott Fitzgerald here (unless you are willing to send me the story ready to go
online) ! Maybe some day I will want to spend an entire day or two on one story, but not at this time.
Three, I have no summaries or analyses, so you needn t ask. I read short stories often, but only for the
enjoyment of doing so. I ~have very little desire to analyze what I am reading for that deep, hidden
meaning.
   Fewer and fewer people these days read short stories. This is unforttmate- so few will ever
experience the joy that reading such fine work can give. The goal of this site is to give a nice cross section
of short stories in the hope that these short stories will excite these people into rediscovering this excellent
source of entertainment.
   Happy reading! Oh yes, visit the bannered sites on this page. This is how we survive and thus keep
this free site on line. If you are familiar with the costs involved with bandwidth, you will understand that
a site such as this one requires a lot of bandwidth (as it is visited heavily), which can be quite
expensive. So, if you appreciate this collection, go buy something. Thank you!

   Many of us remember the touching television advertisemont where the actor Iron Eyes Cody sheds a
tear over litter. Such Native images are often used to convey the idea of saving mother earth. People who
accept this image fmd it difficult to bring together what they have seen of some reservations- shabby
homes, broken cars, underfed dogs, weeds in winds, and coal strip mines. Those who most romanticize
American Indians are the quickest to be disappointed and discover that things axe not as good as they have
once believed. However, Indians relationship with the land is much more complicated (复杂的) than
those two black and white images which appeared in the telivision.
   Historically, tribal （部落的） people around the globe have had close ties with the earth. Lakota
historian Vine Deloria, Jr., tells the story of the Ponca people who were taken from their range ver a
century ago and transported against their will to Oklahoma. Otherwise healthy, many Ponca wasted and
died from no other clear cause than separation from their home. As Cheryl Crazy Bull says in this isst
The land is our relative. Without land, tribal people lose their identity- the land along with langoat
spiritual beliefs, and social systems distinguishes tribal people from others.
   To many people in the United States, the Indian reservation is an embarrassment. It represents
American version of racial seperation--a prison without walls where the government confined Indians
keep them apart fiom other Americans. To Indian people the reservation is homo, regardless of wha
looks like. They have spiritual, emotional, and family ties. Many of their relatives still live there or
buried there, and their creation stories are centered there.
   Americans tend to pull up roots and separate from their birthplace, moving from city to city m
times. Many of us non-Indians have never visited the places where our ancestors are buried or the hot
where our parents were bom. Western nations use Earth in the same way, as if we can go to anol
planet when the air and water becomo too dirty. On the other hand, tribes are very familiar with
concept of limited resources. They cannot get another reservation if theirs becomes too polluted.
72. What does the writer mainly intend to state in this passage?
  A. American Indians are disappointed with their living environment.
  B. American Indians lead a miserable life now.
  C. Television advertisements can have an unexpected effect on people.
  D. Land is very impoltant to people, especially tribal people.
73. The author included the story of the Pouca people in this article mainly to state
   A. the close relationship between tribal people and land
   B. the poverty of the tribal people
   C. the long history of the Ponca people
   D. the great changes of the Ponca peoples life
74. Which of the following statemonts is true according to thi~ passage?
  A. Americans can use land as they like and then go to another place.
  B. People in the west don t like to travel from city to city.
  C. Tribal people have the same concept of the resours as the non-Indians.
  D. The reservations have both positive and negative (负面的) effects on Indian peoples life.
75. What topic does this article focus on?
  A. Family life of the Indians.
  B. Peoples attitude towards land.
  C. The history of tribal people.
   D. Environmental pollution nowadays.

A big red barn is probably one of the first things most Americans would think of if you asked them to imagine a farm. And not a modem metal barn, but a building made of wood like
the ones in the old days.
   A ham is where farmers keep animals and equipment. Over time, as fewer and fewer people worked the land, more and more barns were tom down to make way for developers. Others that remained might have fallen into poor condition. Or perhaps they just no longer satisfy the needs of a modem farmer. Keeping an old barn in good condition might not be seen as worth the cost if it doeshot serve much purpose. But Americans with historic barns are being urged to save them.
   The magazine Successful Fanning and the National Trust for Historic Preservation are working
together on a program called Barn Again! The National Trust is a nonprofit organization that works to
protect places of historic importance in America.
   The Barn Again program advises hundreds of barn owners every year. Awards are given for the
projects that best succeed at restoring a ham for continued farm use. Winning buildings are used to
demonstrate (展示) methods of preservation.
   The organization suggests how problems with things like stone and concrete block foundations can be fixed. With many old barns, the foundation they are built on is falling apart. Barn Again also offers
advice for other repairs, like how to replace siding and how to use a power washer to remove loose paint.
And farmers are given suggestions about how to calculate costs.
   Leo Fitzpatrick of Beaverton, Michigan, won the 2004 Barn Again Award. He made one
improvement at a time. The work took more than nine years. He did it himself, even though for a while
he held another job in addition to farming. He says it cost him fourteen thousand dollars, much less than
a new ham of similar size.
   The improvements included strengthening the barn. There are no structural suppoas inside the
building; instead, its sides hold it up. Today the barn holds fourteen thousand bundles of hay.
   Leo Fitzpatrick says the barn is a lot stronger than when it was new. His grandfather built it in
1914. And Mister Fitzpatrick says his farm would not be the same without it.
76.What is the best title of the passage? (Please answer within 10 words)
77. Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following sentence?
   Barn owners who make the best repairs on old hams and keep them in use can get a prize.

  -Dear editor, Recently a survey has been done to find out how middle school students spend their
pocket money．In this survey，both junior students and senior students spend most their money On books，
sacks and playing games，still some money goes tO clothes，banks，sports，and sO On．The survey shows
that about 44％Of seniors prefer books to sacks(37％)and playing games(31％)．On the other hand， only 32％Of juniors will spend their pocket money buying books，while over a half buy sacks and 44％
spend On playing games．Both seniors and juniors would not wasted too much money in clothes Or put it in banks．
  I think too much sacks will not Only makes us put On weight but also does harm tO our health．in addition，if we play games without limit，we’ll lose much precious time，which results in low grades．
  Furthermore，the money is hard-earned．I hope we students value ourmoneyss well as our time．
