Hi, I’m Gina. In February, 2018 my mother had a yard sale. During the sale, she had a conversation with a young girl called Nancy, for they had a common interest in some books she had for sale. They enjoyed their conversation so much that they exchanged their phone numbers. Later they became friends and got together a few times. When my mom moved into her new house, she had a family dinner and invited Nancy and introduced her to my brother. Five months later Nancy married (結(jié)婚) my brother.

In 2018, there was another special “yard sale” that I’ll never forget. One day, after work from school, I found one of my neighbors had a lot of things out in their front yard with cars and people everywhere. I ran to the yard at once and wanted to find some good cheap things too before everything good was gone. But then I found out it wasn’t a yard sale. In fact, policemen were taking the stolen (被偷的) things out of the house. My neighbor was a thief! Luckily, I didn’t ask how much the TV was.

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,回答下列問題。

1.When did Gina’s mother have a yard sale?

_________________________________________________________

2.Why did the writer’s mother have a conversation with Nancy?

_________________________________________________________

Hi, I’m Tom. When I was about 12 years old, a girl in my class liked to point out my problems. I was too thin;I wasn’t a good student;I talked too much;I was too proud and so on. At last, I became very angry and ran to my father.

He listened to me quietly. Then he asked, “Are these things true or not? Do you know what you are really like? Go and make a list of what she said and find the things that are true.”

I did as he told me. To my great surprise,I found that about half of the things were true. Some of them I couldn’t change (like being very thin). But there were things I could and wanted to change. For the first time,I got a clear picture of myself.

I brought the list back to Dad. He didn’t take it. “That’s just for you, ” he said. “You know the truth about yourself better than anyone else. When people say something that is true about you,you should find it helpful.”

Our world is full of people who think they know your problems. Don’t be angry and feel hurt. Listen to them.

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,判斷下列句子正(T)誤(F)。

1.Tom was angry because a girl in his class pointed out his problems.

2.Tom’s father wasn’t interested in what he said.

3.Tom found that about half of the things the girl said were true.

A Christmas Carol was written by Charles Dickens. The first 6,000 copies of the book were sold out in a week. And the book has inspired many plays and movies. The first play was put on in 1844. The first two movies were silent films made in 1901 and 1908. Since then, the story has been remade more than 60 times for television and cinema. What makes such a tale so attractive? Audiences have always loved a good plot, a villain(反面人物) who harms other people or breaks the law, and the ending of right over wrong. The book offers all three.

The book tells the story of a man named Ebenezer Scrooge. He is mean(自私的) and cruel(冷酷的)to his clerk and turns away his only living relative. One night, Scrooge is visited by three spirits.

Here Scrooge sees that people can be happy without lots of money. The spirit also shows him the desperate poor people of London. The third spirit shows Scrooge will die alone, and no one will care if he continues to live as he has. At last the message is understood, and Scrooge repents. He becomes generous(慷慨的)and caring to all around him, especially to his clerk’s sick son, Tiny Tim.
