Not long ago, Ted Gup opened an old suitcase from his mother’s attic(阁楼) and discovered a family secret. Inside was a thick pile of letters addressed to “B. Virdot ,” all dated December 1933, all asking for help. Also inside: 150 canceled checks signed by the mysterious Virdot.

Gup, a journalism professor at Boston’s Emerson College, Quickly got to the bottom of the story: His grandfather, Samuel Stone, had used the name to send money to poor people during the Great Depression.

Stone wasn’t a big man, but as the owner of a chain of clothing stores, he was fairly well off. Just before Christmas, 1933, he placed an ad in his local newspaper, offering money to 75 people who wrote to “B. Virdot” explaining their need. The letters pours in and he ended up giving 150 people $5. “I read all the letters many times,” says Gup, who was astonished by the pain of the Great Depression.

Then he tracked down the letter writers’ descendants (后代). “Most people I contacted wept when they learned about the letters,” Gup says. Some whom Gup contacted finally understood why their parents had been able to serve a fancy meal for just that holiday; others learned cruel truths. “The children of several letters writers were unaware that their parents had gone to prison,” Gup says. “That did not reduce their respect or love for their parents,” he says, “but it improved their understanding.”

Gup found out that his grandfather had his own dark past. He’d been born in Romania, not—as he’s said—Pittsburgh. And he was Jewish. Gup guesses that to escape prejudice against immigrants and to escape a childhood of poverty, hunger, and religious persecution(迫害), Stone had invented his biography(自传).His birth certificate was not real. That Stone wasn’t a saint—that he’d done whatever it took to escape adversity(不幸)—helped explain why he helped people. “He understood despair,” Gup says. “Nothing was more precious that a second chance.”

36.B. Virdot was Ted Gup’s father,Samuel Stone.

37.All the letters found about by Gup were asking for help .

38.Samuel Stone gave 150 people who wrote to him $5.

39.The letter writer’s descendants had a better understanding of their parents.

40.Samuel Stone did invent his biography to escape adversity.

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项A、B、C和D中，选出最佳选项。

B

One day, when I was working as a psychologist（心理医生） in England，an adolescent boy showed up in my office. It was David. He kept walking up and down restlessly, his face pale, and his hands shaking slightly. His head teacher had referred him to me. "This boy has lost his family," he wrote. "He is understandably very sad and refuses to talk to others, and I'm very worried about him. Can you help?”

I looked at David and showed him to a chair. How could I help him? There are problems psychology doesn’t have the answer to, and which no words can describe. Sometimes the best thing one can do is to listen openly and sympathetically

The first two times we met, David didn't say a word. He sat there, only looking up to look at the children's drawings on the wall behind me. I suggested we play a game of chess. He nodded. After that he played chess with me every Wednesday afternoon--in complete silence and without looking at me. It's not easy to cheat in chess, but I admit I made sure David won once or twice.

Usually, he arrived earlier than agreed, took the chess board and pieces from the shelf and began setting them up before I even got a chance to sit down. It seemed as if he enjoyed my company. But why did he never look at me?

"Perhaps he simply needs someone to share his pain with," I thought. "Perhaps he senses that I respect his suffering.” Some months later, when we were playing chess, he looked up at me suddenly.

"It’s your turn," he said.

After that day, David started talking. He got friends in school and joined a bicycle club. He wrote to me a few times about his biking with some friends, and about his plan to get into university. Now he had really started to live his own life.

Maybe I gave David something. But I also learned that one一without any words一can reach out to another person. All it takes is a hug, a shoulder to cry on, a friendly touch, and an ear that listens.

41. When he first met the author, David ________________________. .

A. felt a little excited B. walked energetically

C. looked a little nervous D. showed up with his teacher

42. As a psychologist, the author __________________________.

A. wanted to ask the author for advice B. needed to share sorrow with the author

C. liked the children’s drawings in the office

D. bore the author many times in the chess game

44．What can be inferred about David?

B. He li
