My son Gilbert was eight years old and has been in Cub Scouts only a short time. During
one of his meetings he was 1 a sheet of paper, a block of wood and four tires(车胎) and told
to return home and give all to" 2 ". But his father was then in hospital because of an accident.
Having no carpentry (木工工作)skills, I decided it would be best if I simply read the 3 and
let Gilbert do the work by himself. Within days his block of wood was turning into a pinewood
racing car. Gilbert felt pretty proud, the pride that came with knowing you did 4 _on your own.
But,when the big night came, my little son"s pride 5 humility (谦卑). Gilbert"s car was
obviously the only 6 0ne made 7 0n his own, while all the other cars, cool and smooth, were
a father-son 8 . 9 ,Gilbert was the only boy without father at his side. Gilbert had "mom".
The race 10 and went on smoothly. Finally it was between Gilbert and the prettiest,
fastest-looking car there. As the last race was about to begin, Gilbert asked if they could stop
the race for a minute, 11 he wanted to pray. The race stopped. Gilbert talked with his father
in his heart for a very long minute. Then he smiled and announced, "Okay, I am 12 . "
As the crowd 13,the boy named Tommy stood with his father as their car sped down the
camp(斜坡). Gilbert stood with his father within his heart. Finally, his block of wood rushed over
the 14 line just a second before Tommy"s car. Gilbert jumped into the air with a
loud "Thank you" as the crowd roared in 15 .
The Scout Master came up to Gilbert and asked the obvious question, " So you prayed to
16 , huh, Gilbert?", to 17 my young son answered, "Oh, no, sir. That 18 be fair to ask
God to help you beat someone else. I just asked father for 19 ,so I wouldn"t cry when I 20 " |

The phone rang loudly next to her ear as she sat at the computer. Sarah picked it up; hoping
it wasn"t for her, because she really didn"t feel like talking to anyone. She uttered a monotonous
(沉闷的 ) , " Hello?" " Hi Sarah! !This is Mindy! What"s up?? Umm, the reason that called was
that I need help with the English assignment. I"ve been having trouble coming up with a topic. "
Sarah"s shoulders silently drooped as she realized that she had completely forgotten about the
homework to witness or be a part of a situation and write it in down in great detail. She let out a sigh.
As her best friend continued to talk about her topic ideas, Sarah"s mind drifted. She thought
about how Mindy was moving 500 miles away in less than a month. She thought about how much
she"d miss her friend and how it wouldn"t be the same without her.
"So, do you have any idea what I should do about this assignment? "Mindy asked, bringing
Sarah out of her fog. She answered her own question, suddenly exclaiming, "I know! ! I"ll describe
what happened today in the lunch line! I just wanted to ring that Jennifer girl"s neck! ! SHE WAS
SO RUDE! ""
Sarah thought back to earlier in the day when they had been in the lunch line, waiting patiently
and a snotty(自大的)girl pushed her way up in front of them, causing Mindy and Sarah to lose their
place in line.
"That sounds like a good idea. I wish I"d thought of that, "Sarah says softly. The conversation
ended quickly after that and Sarah was feeling better. She was still sad that her best friend was moving,
but she knew that they would keep in touch and always be close. At just that moment, Sarah was glad
that Mindy called. She now had the perfect topic for her English assignment. |
| 1. What do we know about Sarah when the phone rang first ? |
A. She was in low spirits.
B. She was busy working.

D. She was repairing the computer. |
| 2. Mindy called Sarah to___________. |

C. ask Sarah for help
D. comfort Sarah |
| 3. How did Sarah feel about Mindy"s moving? |
A. She was sad that she would miss her friend.
B. She di4n"t quite care about it.
C. She was surprised because Mindy hadn"t told her earlier.
D. She was sad that Mindy would forget her. |
| 4. Why was Sarah feeling better after their telephone conversation ended? |
A. Because she finally thought of what she could write about.
B. Because she knew that she and Mindy would keep in touch.
C. Because Mindy could act bravely to protect them at school.
D. Because Mindy would never trouble her with a question any more. |

D. limited | | 阅读理解 | I first went to Harrow in the summer term. The school had the biggest swimming pool I had ever seen.
It was a good joke to come up behind a naked boy, and push him into the pool. I made quite a habit of
this with boys of my own size or less.
One day I saw a boy wrapped in a towel on the side of the pool. He was no bigger than I was, so I
thought him a fair game. Coming secretly behind,I pushed him in,holding on to his towel so that it would
not get wet. I was surprised to see an angry face come out from the water, and a being of great strength
making its way by fierce strokes(猛力地划) to the shore. I fled, but in vain. He overtook me, seized me
violently,and threw me into the deepest part of the pool. I soon climbed out on the other side, and found
myself surrounded by a crowd of younger boys. "Do you know what you have done?" they said, "It"s
Amery;he is in Grade Six. He is champion at gym; he has got his football honor. "
I was frightened and felt ashamed. How could I tell his position when he was wrapped in a bath towel
and so small? 1 decided to apologize immediately. "I am sorry, "I said,"I mistook you for a Grade Four
boy. You are so small. "He didn"t seem pleased at all, so I added in a most brilliant word, "My father,
who is a great man, is also small. "At this he laughed, and after some general words about my rude
behavior and how I had better be careful in the future, signified the incident was closed. | | 1. The writer thought Amery "a fair game" because the boy__________. | A. looked like an animal
B. was fond of games
C. was of similar size
D. was good at sports | | 2. The writer felt "ashamed" because__________. | A. he was laughed at by other boys
B. Amery turned out to be in the same grade

D. he played a joke on an outstanding athlete | | 3. By saying "My father, who is a great man, is also small", the write __________. | A. tried to please Amery
B. challenged Amery
C. threatened Amery
D. admired his father | | 4. Which of the following is TRUE? | A. The writer could run faster than Amery.
B. The writer liked playing jokes on boys of all sizes.
C. Amery was a student in Grade Four.
D. Amery forgave the writer for his rude behavior. | The summer I was ten, my mother decided to bring us to the world of art. My brother and I were
not very excited when we realized what my mother meant. What she meant was not that we could take
drawing classes or painting classes but that we would have to spend one afternoon a week with her at
the Fine Arts Museum. Before each visit to the museum, she made us read about artists and painting
styles(风格). It was almost as bad as being in school. Who wants to spend the summer thinking about
artists when you could be with your friends at the swimming pool?
First we had to read about ancient Egyptians(古埃及人)and their strange way of painting faces and
then go to look at them at the museum. My 12-year-old brother thought this was so funny, but I was not
interested. Later we had to learn about artists in the Middle Ages who painted people wearing strange
long clothing. We had to look at pictures of fat babies with wings and curly(髫曲)hair and with no clothes on flying around the edges of paintings. I certainly couldn"t see what was so great about art.
On our last visit to the museum, something happened when I saw a painting by a woman called Mary.
In it, a woman was reading to a child. The colors were soft and gentle, and you could tell by the mother"s
expression how happy she was just to be with the child. I couldn"t stop looking at this painting! I wanted
to see every painting Mary had ever made! It was really worth looking at so many paintings to find a
painter who could interest me so much. | | 1. The aim of the mother"s plan was to__________. | A. take them to visit the museum
B. introduce them to the world of art
C. ask them to read about artists
D. show them different painting styles | | 2. What made the writer go through a change that summer? | A. One of Mary"s paintings.
B. A strange way of painting.
C. Artists in the Middle Ages.
D. Her mother"s instruction. | | 3. From the text, we can see__________. | A. the importance of curiosity
B. the effect of art
C. the value of learning
D. the power of family education | 最新试题
