When the Berlin Wall came down in 1989, Leonard Bernstein gave a concert in Berlin, including Beethoven's Ode to Joy, with the word "Joy" changed to "Freedom" in the lyrics sung．The orchestra（管弦樂隊）were drawn from both East and West Germany, as well as the United Kingdom, France, the Soviet Union, and the United States．
Freedom was in the air and it was not just for people． The wall between East and West Germany had also kept a large population of wild pigs within the eastern forests of Brandenburg．The wall's falling down made it easier for the big pigs—a very big one can weigh over 300 pounds—to leave the woodlands and walk into the town． Warm winters and easy access to food have helped the population increase． Now about 10,000 wild pigs walk around Berlin．

 (09·四川B篇)

July 21st.  2007 was a typical English summer’s day — it rained for 24 hours ! As usual, I rushed home from work at midday to check on the house. Nothing was amiss. By the time I left work at 5pm.  However, the road into our village was flooded. Our house had never been flooded but, as I opened the front door.  a wave of waters greeted me. Thank God the kids weren’t wish me, because the house was 5 feet deep in water. We lost everything downstairs. And the plaster had to be torn off the wall’s ceilings pulled down.   

At first we tried to push on through. We didn’t want to move the children out of home.  so we camped upstairs. We put a sheet of plastic across the floor to protect us from the damp. But after three months, we felt very sick, so we move to a wooden house in a park. The house was small.  but at first we were all just delighted to be in a new place. Unfortunately, things took longer than expected and we were there for 10 months. The life there was inconvenient. What surprised me most was how much I missed being part of a community（社區(qū)）. We had lived in a friendly village with good neighbors, and I’d never thought how much I，I’d miss that. 

Although our situation was very bad, it’s difficult to feel too sorry for yourself when you look at what’s happening elsewhere. I watched a news report about floods in Northern India and thought.  “We didn’t have a straw hut（茅草房）that was for Christmas. But I can’t wait — I’m going to throw a party for our friends in the village to say thanks for their support. This year, I won’t need any gifts — living away from home for months has made me realize how little we actually need or miss all our possessions. Although we are replacing things, there’s really no rush — we have our home back.  and that’s the main thing.   

45. What does the underlined word “amiss” in the first paragraph mean ？ 

A. Wrong.            B. Missing.          C. Right.             D. Found 

46. It can be inferred from the text that the author        . 

A. was sick of staying upstairs 

B. cared much about her children   

C. could not stand living in a wooden house 

D．did not deal well with her family affairs during the flood 

47. Why does the author say that they were lucky in the third paragraph ? 

A. Because her situation was not serious. 

B. Because many other paces were flooded. 

C. Because she had been to Northern India. 

D. Because some others suffered even more. 

48. What does the author mainly want to express by telling her story? 

A. She valued human feelings more than before. 

B. She realized she almost didn’t need possession. 

C. She found Christmas gifts no longer badly needed. 

D. She thought her own home was the most important.
