阅读理解。     Mark was walking home from school one day when he noticed that the boy ahead of him had tripped and
dropped all of the books he was carrying, along with two sweaters, a baseball bat, a glove and a small tape
recorder. Mark knelt down and helped the boy pick up the scattered articles. Since they were going the same
way, he helped to carry part of the burden. As they walked, Mark discovered that the boy"s name was Bill, that
he loved video games, basebaii and history, that he was having a lot of trouble with his other subjects and that
he had just broken up with his close friend.
     They arrived at Bill"s home first and Mark was invited in for a Coke and to watch some television. The
afternoon passed pleasantly with a few laughs and some shared small talks, and then Mark went home. They
continued to see each other around school, had lunch together once or twice, and then both graduated from
junior high school. They ended up in the same high school where they had brief contacts over the years. Finally
the long last year came, and three weeks before graduation, Bill asked Mark if they could have a talk.
     Bill reminded him of the day years before when they had first met. "Do you ever wonder why I was
carrying so many things home that day?" asked Bill. "You see, cleaned out my locker because I didn"t want to
leave a mess for anyone else. I decided to drop out of school. But after we spent some time together talking and
laughing, I realized that if I had left school, I would have missed that time and so many others that might follow.
So you see, Mark, when you picked up my books that day, you did a lot more. You helped me out." 1. Which of the following is the correct order of the events that happened to Bill?
   a. Bill tripped and dropped all of his books he was carrying.
    b. Bill broke up with his close friend.
    c. Bill graduated from junior high school.
    d. Bill cleaned his locker.
    e. Bill decided to drop out of school. A. d-e-a-b-c
B. e-d-b-a-c
C. b-d-e-a-c
D. b-e-d-a-c 2. We can learn from the passage that _____. A. Bill loved video games, baseball and geography
B. Bill and Mark studied at the same senior school
C. because they were good friends, Mark picked up Bill"s books
D. Mark knew Bill was having a lot of trouble before he was told 3. The author"s purpose in writing this passage is to _____. A. remind us that we should pick up the articles others dropped
B. tell people schoolboys are easy to get along with each other
C. tell us that everybody can be great if he has a heart full of love
D. tell us that schoolboys should make as many friends as they can

阅读理解。     There was a man who had a little boy that he loved very much. Every day after work the man would come
home and play with the little boy. He would always spend all of his spare time playing with the little boy.
     One day, while the man was at work, he realized that he had extra work to do for the evening, and that he
wouldn"t be able to play with his little boy. But, he wanted to be able to give the boy something to keep him
busy. So, looking around his office, he saw a magazine with a large map of the world on the cover. He got an
idea. He removed the map, and then patiently tore it up into small pieces. Then he put all the pieces in his coat
pocket.
     When he got home, the little boy came running to him and was ready to play. The man explained that he
had extra work to do and couldn" t play with him, but he led the little boy into the dining room. He took out all
the pieces of the map and spread them on the table. He explained that it was a map of the world, and that by
the time he put it back together, his extra work would be finished and they could both play. Surely this would
keep the child busy for hours, he thought.
     About half an hour later the boy came to the man and said, "Okay, it"s finished. Can we play now?" The
man was surprised, saying, "That" s impossible. Let"s go and see." And sure enough, there was the picture of
the world; all put together, every piece in its place.
    The man said, "That"s amazing! How did you do that?" the boy said, "it was simple. On the back of the
page was a picture of a man. When I put the man together, the whole world fell into place." 1. The man told his son to put a map back together because _____. A. he had little time to play with his son
B. he was tired of playing with his son
C. he had to overwork in the office
D. he wanted his son to play alone 2. The son spent _____ putting the map back together. A thirty minutes
B. several hours
C. the whole evening
D. the whole day 3. What can you infer from this story? A. Children often make adults mad.
B. Adults know little about children.
C. Sometimes children surprise adults.
D. Adults always care for their children.

     At eighteen, I left my home and studied history at Leeds University in England. It was a hard time in my
   1 as I was learning to deal with the pain of my father"s recent death.
     One day at the market, I saw an elderly gentleman having difficulty holding onto both his walking stick
and his bag of apples. I rushed over and   2   him.
     "Thanks. Don"t worry, I"m quite all right now," he said, smiling at me with a pair of bright eyes.
    "May I walk with you?" I asked and so began my friendship with Mr Burns, a man whose   3   and warmth
very soon came to mean a great deal to me.
     When we arrived at his house, I insisted on helping him prepare for his meal and asked if it would be all
right if I came back again. I thought I should help him. With a smile he replied, "I"ve never been one to   4   an
offer from a kind-hearted girl."
     I visited Mr Bums twice a week, always on the same days and at the same time. I told Mr Bums how
regretful I felt about being   5   with my father two weeks before his death.
     After about a month, when I went to his house at a different time, I saw him working in his garden, moving
around   6 . I was very surprised.
     "How?" I began, "I thought…"
     "I know what you thought. When you first saw me at the market, I hurt my ankle earlier that day."
     "But…when were you able to   7   normally again?"
     "Ah, not long after our first meeting."
     "But   8 ?" Iasked.
     "When you came around for the second time, I saw how unhappy you were, feeling   9   and sad. I knew
you were telling yourself that you were visiting me for my sake and not your own. I didn"t think you would
come back if you knew I was  10 , and I knew you really" needed someone to talk to, and someone who knew
how to  11 ."
     Mr Bums, the man I"d set out to help, helped me. He gave the gift of his time and kindness to a young girl
