One day, the two brothers argued over a small misunderstanding, which quickly turned into a bigger  18  . They stopped working together and began using bad words towards each other. This  19   complete silence between them, and they neither spoke to each other again.

After a week, someone  20  on Jamie's door. When he opened it, he found a man with a carpenter’s (木匠的) toolbox. The man said, ‘I’m looking for some  21  . Do you have any small jobs I can help with?’

Jamie thought for a moment and  22  , “Yes, I have a job for you.” He pointed to a wide ditch (沟渠) on the farm and said, “My brother and I used to work together, but last week, he dug this ditch to  23  our farms. I want you to build a tall fence there, so I don’t have to see my brother anymore.”

The carpenter agreed. Jamie then left for town to do some shopping. When he came back, instead of the fence he had requested, he was  24  to see a beautiful bridge across the ditch.

Just as he was about to ask the carpenter what had happened, Jack walked across the bridge with tears in his eyes. “I’m sorry, Jamie. After everything I’ve said, you still build this bridge to things between us,” Jack said. “You’re the best brother ever.” He then gave Jamie a warm hug.

第一节 阅读理解（共15小题，每小题2分，满分30分）

（A）

Jim Martin walked slowly on his way to Thomas Jefferson Middle School. Filled with excitement, he was still nervous. After all, it was his first day of school as a teacher.

As Jim passed through the school gate, a memory hit him. It was about Mrs. Peabody’s English class. Mrs. Peabody gave the class a writing task. Students were asked to write about their summer vacation. Jim didn’t want to write a stupid essay about his vacation: a water park, two weeks of camp, and his homework. It was boring. He chose to write a science fiction short story instead. It was about a planet that didn’t have summer — it was spring all the time. He handed in his story but was worried that he would get an F.

When he got to class the next morning, to his surprise, Mrs. Peabody praised him for his creativity and imagination. She said, “Just one of you had the courage to be as imaginative as I asked you to be. Jim Martin is the only one who got an A on the task. Now I’m going to ask him to come up here and read his story to you, though he should have paid a little more attention to proper spelling and grammar.”

Hands shaking, Jim walked to the front of the classroom gleefully, as if he were the first person to step onto the surface of Mars. Though it sounded like a small thing, that moment made a great difference to him.

As Jim walked through the crowded hallway, similar memories came flooding back. Coach LaBell taught him how to control his anger before he wanted to fight with another boy. Mr. Carter taught him to love the process of learning, not just the subject itself.

Jim hoped that he would make a difference to his students like what his teachers had done. The bell rang.

He took a deep breath and walked into the classroom. “Good morning, everyone,” he said.
