阅读理解。     An 80-year-old man was sitting on the sofa in his house along with his 45-year-old son. Suddenly a crow
(乌鸦) landed on their window.
     The father asked his son, "What is that?"
     The son replied, "That is a crow."
     After a few minutes, the father asked his son for the second time, "What is this?"
     The son said, "Father, I told you just now. It"s a crow."
     After a little while, the father asked his son the same question for the third time, "What is this?"
     This time, the son said to his father in a low and cold tone, "It"s a crow, a crow." 
     After a moment, the father yet again asked his son for the fourth time, "What is this?"
     This time his son shouted at his father, "Why do you keep asking me the same question again and again?
I have told you already, "IT IS A CROW". Are you not able to understand this?"
     A minute later the father went to his room and came back with a diary, which he had kept since his son
was born. On opening a page, he asked his son to read that page.
     Today my little son aged three was sitting with me on the sofa when a crow suddenly landed on the window
edge. My son asked me 23 times what it was, and I replied him 23 times that it was a crow. I hugged him
lovingly each time he asked me the same question. I didn"t at all feel angry, but instead felt affection for my
son.
     If your parents reach old age, do not look at them as a burden, but speak to them gently, and be kind to
them. From today say this aloud, "I want to see my parents happy forever. They have cared for me ever since
I was a little child. They have always showered me with love. I will take care of my old parents in the best
way no matter how they behave." 1. The writer mainly intends to _____. [     ]

     I was ten when I first sat with my grandmother behind the cashier (收银台) in her general store. 1_____
I quickly learned the importance of treating customers politely and saying "thank you". 
     At first I was paid in candy. 2_____ I worked every day after school, and during the summer and on
weekends and holidays from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. My father helped me set up a bank account. 3_____ 
     By the time I was 12, my grandmother thought I had done such a good job that she promoted me to selling
cosmetics (化妆品). I developed the ability to look customers directly in the eye. Even though I was just a
kid, women would ask me such things as "What color do you think I should wear?" I took a real interest in
their questions and was able to translate what they wanted into makeup (化妆) ideas. 4_____
    The job taught me a valuable lesson: to be a successful salesperson, you didn"t need to be a Rocket
scientist-you needed to be a great listener. 5_____ Expect they are no longer women purchasing cosmetics
from me; instead, they are kids who tell me which toys they would like to see designed and developed.
A. Later I received 50 cents an hour.
B. Before long, she let me sit there by myself.
C. I ended my selling a record amount of cosmetics.
D. Today I still carry that lesson with me: I listen to customers.

     When I was in my fourth year of teaching, I was also (and am still) a high school track and field coach
(田径教练). One year, I had a student, John, who entered my class when he was a junior (三年级学生).
John changed to our school from Greece, and seemed to be interested in sports, so I encouraged him to join
our track team. I explained to him that even though he had never taken part in it before, I did believe that he
could do well in any event, and I would be willing to coach him at whichever ones interested him. He accepted
the offer, and began to work hard at every practice.
     About a month later, I had found out from other sources that John was a first-class tennis player, winning
various junior awards in his home country. I went to him asking, "John, I really appreciate that you came out
for the track team, but why didn"t you play tennis instead? It seems that would interest you a lot more, since
you"re so good at it."
     John answered, "Well, I like tennis, but you told me that you believed in me, and that you thought I could
do well in track, so I wanted to try it for that reason."
     From then on, I often remember my student"s reply. I told it to a friend and she suggested I write it down
to share somewhere with more teachers. No matter how critical (不满的) students can be of them-selves,
I"ve found that a simple "I trust that you can do it!" can go a long way!
1. According to Paragraph 1, the author seems to think more about John"s _____.
[     ]
A. PE marks
B. self-confidence
C. interest in sports
D. state of health
2. Why did John take part in the track team?
[     ]
A. He had been an excellent runner.
B. He was encouraged by his teacher.
C. He liked running more than tennis.
D. He had no tennis coach to train him.
3. The purpose of this passage is probably _____.
[     ]
A. to build a close teacher-student relationship
B. to introduce a new way of sports training
C. to explain the value of sports and games
D. to show the importance of encouragement
4. The passage is mainly written for _____.
[     ]
A. teachers
B. parents
C. students
D. players

     It was five minutes before midnight.
     "They should be home any time," Cindy thought as she finished the last touches on the chocolate cake
she was   1  . The cake didn"t taste   2   because she had run out of sugar.
     The kitchen was in a mess (杂乱). Imagine a huge blender filled with all the things for making a chocolate
cake. Now the blender is turned   3  . High speed. Without the lid. Do you get the idea?
     But Cindy wasn"t thinking about the kitchen. She was   4   for her parents to return so that she could
present her gift. She turned off the   5   and waited excitedly in the dark. At last she saw the car headlights
flashing and heard the key going into the front   6  .
     Her parents tried to come in   7  . Cindy suddenly turned on the light and laughed loud, "Ta-daaa!" She   8   
to the kitchen table, where the poor chocolate cake stood.
     But her mother"s eyes never made it all the way to the table. "Just look at this mess!"
     "But Mom, I was only …"
     "Clean the   9   first thing in the morning!"
     "Honey," Cindy"s father said gently, "take a look at the table."
     "I know-it"s a mess," his wife said  10 . "The whole kitchen is a  11 ." She stormed up the stairs.
     For a few moments Cindy and her father stood silently,  12  knowing what to say. Finally she looked up at
him, her eyes red. "She never saw the cake," she said. From time to time we all allow ourselves to be  13  to
subjects of long-term importance by something that seems awfully important right now-but isn"t. Muddy shoes,
lost lunch money and untidy kitchens are troublesome but what"s a little mud compared to a child"s  14 ? There
are times when we really need to see the mess in the kitchen, and times when we only need to see the  15 .
