Jane Scott is fourteen and the year before last she began to study in a middle school. She likes dancing and singing and spends a lot of time on them. But she hates math and does not work hard at it. She thinks it difficult to learn. She falls behind her classmates and once failed the math exam. She decides to drop it. Her father is angry with her when he knows about it.
It was Sunday. Mr Scott gave a call to his sister, who teaches math in another school. He hoped she would come and tell his daughter how to learn math. The woman came quickly and said. “You’re a clever girl, Jane. I’m sure you’ll soon do well in math if you work hard at it.”
“I’m afraid I can’t, Aunt,” said Jane, “Girls can’t be good at math.”
“I don’t think so,” said the woman. “I was good at it when was a girl. You must do more exercises and practice a math problem again and again until you master it. Remember: Practice makes perfect. Well, it’s a math problem. Think about it and practice it again, and you’ll work it out.”
“OK,” said the girl, “Let me try.”
About an hour later, Jane took the exercise book to her aunt and said, “I’ve done the problem ten times.”
“Well done!” her aunt said happily, “What result did you get?”
“Ten answers.”

Chairman Mao once said: “It is not hard to do one good deed. It is hard to do good deeds all your life.” Guo Mingyi, 52, a worker in Anshan, Liaoning, did just that. Over the past 20 years, Guo has donated 60,000 milliliters(毫升) of blood. That is the blood of 10 people put together.
Once, on a cold winter of 2009, Guo got a call from the hospital. The doctors told him that a patient needed a blood donation. Guo didn’t have time to eat lunch. He travelled in the snow to get to the hospital. When he finished donating the blood, he was so tired that he fell asleep on the hospital bed.
Guo and his family live a simple life. He and his wife and daughter live in a house of only 40 square meters. They don’t have a lot of money, but Guo saves money to support poor children. In the past 16 years, he has donated over 100,000 yuan to more than 180 poor students. When the parents met him, many cried. “He looks poorer than us,” they said.
Guo has also offered hands to thousands of workers, friends and strangers. His warm heart has moved many people. They call him a “Modern-Day Lei Feng”.
Recently, Chinese leaders called on people to learn from Guo.

It was Mother’s Day, but the young mother was a little unhappy, because she was 800 miles away from her parents. In the morning she phoned her mother to wish her a happy Mother’s Day, and her mother told her about the beautiful lilacs(丁香花)in the garden.
Later that day, when she told her husband about the lilacs, he said, “I know where we can find all that you want. Get the children and come on.” So they went, driving down the country roads. There on a small hill, they saw a lot of beautiful purple lilacs. The young woman ran quickly to enjoy the flowers. Carefully, she picked a few here and there. On their way home there was a smile on her face.
When they were passing an old people’s home, the young woman saw an old granny sitting in a chair. They stopped the ear and the young woman walked to the old woman, put the flowers in her hands, and smiled at her. The old granny thanked her again and again. She smiled happily, too.
When the young mother came back to her car, her children asked her, “Who is the old granny? Why did you give our flowers to her? I don’t know her,” their mother said. “But it’s Mother’s Day, and she has no children. I have all of you, and I still have my mother. Just think how much those flowers meant to her.”

One day when some government officials were rebuilding a barn(谷仓), they found a mouse hole in a corner and used smoke to force the mice inside the hole to come out. A while later they indeed saw mice running out, one after another. Then, everyone thought that all the mice had escaped. But just as they began to clean up, they saw two mice squeezing（挤）out at the mouth of the hole. With some efforts, the mice finally got out. However, it was strange that after they came out of the hole, they did not run away at once. Instead, one chased after the other near the mouth of the hole. It seemed that one was trying to bite the tail of the other.
Everyone was puzzled, so they stepped nearer to take a look. They realized that one of the mice was blind and could not see anything, and the other was trying to allow the blind mouse to bite on his tail so that he could pull the blind one with him to escape.
After seeing what happened, everyone was speechless and lost in thought. During the meal time, the group of people sat down in a circle and started to chat about what happened to the two mice.
One serious American official said: “I think the relationship between those two mice was that of king and guard.” The others thought for a while and said: “That was why!”
A smart French said: “I think the relationship between those two mice was that of husband and wife.” Again the others thought for a while, and all felt it made sense.
A Japanese said: “I think the relationship between those two mice was that of mother and son.” Once again the others thought for a while, and felt this was more reasonable. So they expressed agreement another time.
At that moment, one Chinese asked: “Why did those two mice have to have a certain relationship?”
Suddenly, the group looked back at the Chinese and remained speechless. The American official, the French and the Japanese who had spoken earlier all lowered their heads in shame, and did not dare to answer.
In fact, the true love is not built on friendship, loyalty or blood relationship. Instead, it is based on no relationship.
小题1:“it made sense” probably means ______.| A．it was strange | B．it was correct | | C．it was sweet | D．it was funny |
小题2:Why did they lower their heads in shame according to the passage？| A．They did not dare to answer. | | B．They regretted（后悔）driving a poor blind mouse away. | | C．They had mistaken the relationship of the mice. | | D．They did not express themselves much better. |
小题3:It is clear that ______.| A．all the mice came out of the hole easily | | B．the people knew one of the mice was blind at the first sight | | C．the people wanted to kill the mice with smoke | | D．each of the people understood the relationship differently |
小题4:The best title for the passage is ______.| A．Two lovely mice | B．Help produces love | | C．Love is all | D．Friends in need |
