class had failed. What had happened?
"Very simple." Mr. Smith said. He had 8 all those things about cattywampus. There had 9 been any
such animal. The information in our 10 was wrong. Did we expect praise for a wrong answer?
We were very 11 . What kind of test was that? And what kind of teacher?
"You should have figured it out", Mr. Smith said. At the very moment he was passing around that
cattywampus skull, hadn"t he been telling us that no trace of the animal 12 ? He had described its color and
other facts he couldn"t have known. He had given the animal a strange name, and we still hadn"t 13 . He said
that the 14 on our papers would be recorded in the grade book. And they were.

D. we"re | | 阅读理解。 | I always felt sorry for the people in wheelchair. Some people, old and weak, can not get around by
themselves. Others seem perfectly healthy, dressed in business suits. But whenever I saw someone in
a wheelchair, I only saw a disability, not a person.
Then I fainted at Euro Disney due to low blood pressure. This was the first time I had ever fainted,
and my parents said that I must rest for a while after First aid. I agreed to take it easy but, as I stepped
towards the door, I saw my dad pushing a wheelchair in my direction! Feeling the color burn my cheeks,
I asked him to wheel that thing right back to where he found it.
I could not believe this was happening to me. Wheelchairs were fine for other people but not for me,
as my father wheeled me out into the main street, people immediately began to treat me differently.
Little kids ran in front of me, forcing my father to stop the wheelchair suddenly. Bitterness set in as
I was thrown back and forth. "Stupid kids-they have perfectly good legs. Why can"t they watch where
they are going?" I thought. People stared down at me,with pity in their eyes. Then they would look away,
maybe because they thought the sooner they forgot me, the better.
"I am just like you!" I wanted to scream. "The only difference is you"ve got legs, and I have wheels."
People in wheelchairs are not stupid. They see every look and hear each word. Looking out at the faces,
I finally understood: I was once just like them. I treated people in wheelchairs exactly the way they did not
want to be treated. I realized it is some of us with two healthy legs who are truly disabled. | | 1. When the writer was healthy, she once _____. | A. showed respect for disabled people
B. imagined herself sitting in a wheelchair
C. looked down upon disabled people
D. saw some healthy people moving around in wheelchairs | | 2. Facing the wheelchair for the first time, the writer _____. | A. refused to accept it immediately
B. felt curious about it
C. thought it was ready for her father
D. got ready to move around in it immediately | | 3. The writer wants to say _____ from her own experience. | A. life is so changeable that nobody can foresee
B. people with healthy legs are truly disabled
C. people often eat their bitter fruit
D. life is the best teacher for people | | 4. Which is the best title for the passage? | A. The Wheelchairs Are as Good as Two Legs
B. People with Two Legs Are Truly Healthy
C. How to Get Used to Wheelchairs
D. The Difference between Healthy People and the Disabled | | 阅读理解。 | When I was quite young, I discovered that somewhere inside the telephone lived an amazing person-
"Information Please" and there was nothing she did not know.
One day while my mother was out, I hit my finger with a hammer. The pain was terrible, but there
was no one home to give me any sympathy. I walked around the house, finally arriving at the telephone!
Quickly, I called "Information Please" and told her what happened. She told me to open the icebox and
hold a little piece of ice to my finger. After that, I called "Information Please" for everything. When my
pet bird died, I told "Information Please" the sad story. She tried to comfort me, she said quietly, "Paul,
always remember that there are other worlds to sing in." Somehow I felt better. Another day I was on
the telephone, "How do you spell "grateful"?". All this took place in a small town in the Pacific Northwest.
When I was 9, we moved to Boston. A few years later, on my way to college, my plane put down in Seattle.
I had about half an hour or so between planes. Without thinking, I dialed my hometown operator and said,
"Information, please."
Surprisingly, I heard the small, clear voice I knew so well, "Information." I hadn"t planned on this but
I heard myself saying, "Could you please tell me how to spell "grateful"?" There was a long pause. Then
came the soft-spoken answer, "I guess your finger must have healed by now." I laughed. "So it"s really
still you," I said, "I wonder if you have any idea how much you meant to me during that time." I told her
how often I had thought of her over the years and asked if I could call her again. "Please do," she said,"
Just ask for Sally."
Three months later I was back in Seattle. A different voice answered me. I was told that Sally passed
away five weeks before.
Before I could hang up she told me that Sally left a message for me-"Tell him I still say there are other
worlds to sing in. He"ll know what I mean." I thanked her and hung up. I knew what Sally meant. Never
underestimate the impression you may make on others. Whose life have you touched today? | | 1. What does "Information, Please" refer to in the passage? | A. An amazing girl.
B. A special kind of telephone.
C. A communication system.
D. A service that helps telephone users. | | 2. What happened to the little boy one day when he was at home alone? | A. He was amused by the telephone.

D. Three months later after he moved to Boston. | 最新试题
