举一反三
Standing alone at Browns party，Anna Mackintosh thought about her husband Edward，establishing him clearly in her mind’s eye. He was a thin man，forty-one years of age，with fair hair that was often untidy．In the seventeen years they’d been married he had changed very little：he was still nervous with other people，and smiled in the same shy way，and his face was still almost boyish．
She believed she had failed him because he had wished for children and she had not been able to supply any．She had been annoyed for this fact over the years and in the end，quite some time ago now，she had consulted Dr.Abbat at Edward’s request.
In the Browns’rich living room，its walls and ceilings giving out a bright light with a metallic surface of imitation gold，Anna listened to dance music coming from a tape recorder and continued to think about her husband．
In a moment he would be at the party too，since they had agreed to meet there，although by now it was three quarters of an hour later than the time he had planned to come.
The Browns were people he knew in a business way，and he had said he thought it wise that he and Anna should attend this gathering of theirs. She had never met them before，which made it more difficult for her，having to wait about，not knowing a soul in the room．
When she thought about it she felt herself unfairly treated，for although Edward was kind to her and always had been，it was far from thoughtful to be as late as this. Because of her nervous condition she felt afraid and had developed a sickness in her stomach．She looked at her watch and sighed．
小题1:What made Anna feel that she had failed her husband，Edward?| A．Her bad relationship with her husband． | | B．Her husband"s youthful appearance | | C．Her inability to have children | | D．Her nervousness at parties |
小题2:Why did Anna stand alone at the party?| A．Her husband’s nervousness affected her | | B．She didn’t like the Browns． | | C．She wanted to enjoy the music． | | D．She didn’t know anybody in the room |
小题3:Anna started to get angry because | A．she wasn’t feeling well | | B．her husband had usually been more thoughtful | | C．she hated to see the Browns" wealth | | D．she came to know that Mr．Brown was only a businessman |
小题4:Why did Edward want Anna to attend the party?| A．He knew that he was going to be late． | | B．He believed she would impress the Browns． | | C．He thought it clever for her to associate with the Browns． | | D．He wanted her to learn how to do business from the Browns |
小题5:Which of the following statements is NOT true?| A．Edward had changed very little in character and appearance in the seventeen years after he got married. | | B．Anna went to the Btowns’ house alone． | | C．Anna was very anxious to meet her husband | | D．It was exactly half an hour after the party began that Edward arrived at the Browns’party. |

For over one hundred and fifty years, Americans of all social classes have worn blue jeans． 小题1: Whether they are worn for work or for fashion today．Strauss" invention continues to be popular not only among Americans but also among people around the world．
Levi Strauss was born in Germany in 1829． 小题2: He grew up in Kentucky before moving to New York in 1847．Before becoming an American citizen and moving to the West in 1853, Strauss worked in his brother"s dry goods business．This gave him a chance to produce his famous invention．After the gold rush of 1949, Strauss decided to move to the West to seek his fortunes．
Strauss did not want to be a person who searched an area for minerals．Instead, he knew he could make a good living by selling supplies to the miners．At first, he planned to sell sewing supplies and cloth． 小题3: When he heard miners complaining that their clothes were easily broken or they usually tore their pockets during mining, he decided to use a special fabric to make pants for the miners．These pants proved so popular that he quickly ran out of materials to make more．
In 1873, Strauss received a letter from a Jewish tailor named Jacob Davis who had invented a process of connecting pockets with copper rivets（铆钉）．This made the pants last a long time．Because Davis did not have the money to patent his idea, he offered to share it with Strauss if Strauss would agree to pay for the patent． 小题4: ．
The business has been growing ever since and Levi Strauss" company is now one of the largest clothing companies in the world．
By the time Strauss died in 1902, he had made a great contribution to American fashion．小题5: | A．As a young boy, he moved with his family to the United States． | | B．Nobody knew what kind of material was suitable． | | C．He did and Levi jeans have been made with metal rivets ever since． | | D．However, he did not get much business for those products． |
E．He also made a great contribution to America"s clothing industry．
F．Since they were invented by Levi Strauss, they have become a symbol of American consumer culture．
G．As the business grew, Strauss got much money from it． |

English was always my favorite subject. In my freshman year of high school, I could write a killer composition. In my second year, my teacher me to give spelling tests to the class. I had a time of my junior year. Mrs Alexander me to sit at her desk and take over the class when she had to leave the room. Only my senior English class was , as we had a teacher right out of college who expected work. Every student received a "C" or "D" grade the first quarter. But English was still my favorite subject.
I graduated from high school, early and had children. about my English, I often helped my kids with their English homework. And I wrote long articles and beautiful poetry as a columnist for a newspaper. Fifteen years later, I went to college, and because I had been an "A" student, I remained an "A" student. I up to my own expectations.
Yesterday, I my high school report cards when I was reading old papers. That bundle of report cards back the old days. I remembered sitting in my advisor"s office, explaining that I had always be at English, and recommending that I did not deserve a ""D" from that inexperienced teacher of my senior year. The advisor was but unable to change a （an） . Reading through my old report cards revealed something else too. I wanted to them or hide them. I was not an "A" student in high school English! Somehow, I had myself of this, when the grades clearly reflected an average student with an "A" or "B" but mostly "C” S.
Had I lived up to those grades and myself according to those letters, I would have never confidently sought my writing career. Had I my early grades instead of myself, I would have allowed my fear of failure to enthusiasm and damage my creativity. Instead, I my younger self as an "A" English student, except for that undeserved "D".
