Mark was walking home from school one day when he saw the boy in front of him fall over and drop
all of the books he was carrying, along with two sweaters, a basketball and a walkman (随身听). Mark
stopped and helped the boy pick up (捡起) these things. Since they were going the same way, he helped
to carry some of his things. As they walked, Mark knew that the boy"s name was Bill, that he loved
computer games, basketball and history, and that he was having lots of troubles with his other subjects
and that he had just broken up with his girlfriend.
They arrived at Bill"s home first and Mark was invited in for a Coke and to watch some television. The
afternoon passed happily with a few laughs and some small talk, then Mark went home. They often saw
each other at school, had lunch together once or twice, and then they both finished middle school. They
ended up in the same high school where they sometimes saw and talked with each other over the years.
At last just three weeks before they finished high school, Bill asked Mark if they could talk.
Bill asked Mark if he still remembered the day years ago when they had first met. "Did you ever think
why I was carrying so many things home that day?" asked Bill. "You see, I cleaned out my locker (锁柜)
because I didn"t want to leave anything for anyone else. I had put away some of my mother"s sleeping pills
and I was going home to kill myself. But after we spent some time together talking and laughing, I began
to understand that if I killed myself, I would have missed (错过) that time and so many others that might
follow. So you see, Mark, when you picked up those books that day, you did a lot more. You saved
my life." | | 1. When Mark met him the first time, Bill was going ___. | | [ ] | A. to have a basketball game

my house. Walking together, my father and I used to have a lot of conversations through which I learned
lessons from his experiences. He always told me, "You should have goals like climbing the mountain."
Without the mountain-climbing that we both enjoyed, We couldn"t have enough time to spend together
because my father was very busy. I really got a lot from mountain-climbing. It gave me time to talk with
my father and to be in deep thought as well as develop my patience (耐力).
Once we climbed a very high mountain. It was so challenging for me because I was only ten years old.
During the first few hours of climbing, I enjoyed the flowers and trees, and the birds" singing. But as time
passed. I got a pain in both of my legs. I wanted to quit climbing. In fact, I hated it at that mountain, but my
father said to me, "You can always see a beautiful sky at the top of the mountain, but you can"t see it before
you reach the top. Only there at the top, can you see all of the nice things, just like in life."
At that time, I was too young to understand his words. But later after that, I got to know hope and
confidence. I found myself standing at the top of the sky, which was as clear as crystal (水晶). | | 1. The passage tells us that mountain-climbing was for Father and Son. | | [ ] | A. hard
