One day in Israel government officials were rebuilding a barn(谷倉). While working, they found a (n)  1   hole in a corner, so they used smoke to force the mice inside the hole to    2  . A while later they indeed saw mice running out, one after another.
Then, everyone thought that all the mice had  3  . But just as they were just about to start to clean up, they saw two mice squeezing out at the _4 of the hole. After some endeavor, the mice finally got out. But _5  , they did not run away immediately. Instead, one chased after the other near the exit of the hole. It seemed that one was trying to bite the _6 of the other. Everyone was puzzled, so they stepped_7_to take a look. They realized that one of the mice was 8 and could not see anything, and the other one was trying to allow the blind mouse to  9 _on his tail so he could pull the blind one with him to escape.
After witnessing what happened, everyone was  10 and lost in thought. During meal time, the group of people sat down and started to chat about what had happened to the two mice. One serious Rome official said, “I think the relationship between those two mice was that of emperor and   11 .” The others thought for a while and said, “That was why !”A smart Israeli said, “I think their relationship was husband and wife.” The others felt it made sense, so they   12  . A Korean, who was accustomed to the firm tradition of loyalty to _13_ , said, “I think the relationship between them was that of mother and son.” Once again the others felt this was more reasonable,     
At that moment, one Samaritan who sat behind them resting his chin in his palms,  14  looked at other people, and asked, “Why did those two mice have to have a certain relationship?” Suddenly, the atmosphere froze. The group   15  at the Samaritan and remained silent. In fact, the true love is not established on benefit, friendship and loyalty or blood relationship. Instead, it is based on no relationship.

“I didn't hear them call my name," explained Shelley Hennig to Active Teens (AT) as she talked about that exciting moment on national television when she won the honor of Miss Teen USA 2004. "Are you ready?" is what she heard. Then she said, "I shook my head no, and then they said 'yes' and it was announced again."
It was four days after that life changing moment for the seventeen-year-old high school student from Destrehan, Louisiana -- she was still on cloud nine.
"I was so shocked! I never believed that it could actually really happen." Present in the audience (觀眾) that day were: her mother and father, older brother, her friends, and her dance teacher.
Understanding why members of her family and her friends would be there, AT asked why her dance teacher had traveled so far to see her compete (比賽). "She's always been my role model. I've danced with her since I was six. She's been through so many difficulties and came through them all. I've learned to get over bad life's experiences and learned how to move on because of her."
One of those bad life's experiences for Shelley happened three years ago when her brother Brad was killed in a drunk driving accident. He was 18. She found writing helped her get through the rough days. She said, "I write a lot about my brother. I write a lot, a lot, a lot..."
As Miss Louisiana Teen, she traveled around the state speaking to teens (青少年) about the dangers of drinking and driving. In her role as Miss Teen USA, Shelley will continue to speak to youth about safe driving, in addition to many other things to help the youth.
When AT asked Miss Teen USA if she had any advice for our readers, she said, "Don't let anyone change you. Hang out with people that make you feel good about yourself. That way, it is easy to be yourself."
小題1:What do the words "on cloud nine" in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A．frightenedB．troubledC．very happyD．very angry
小題2:Shelley takes her dance teacher as a role model mainly because she is ________.
A．determinedB．friendlyC．strictD．experienced
小題3:How many children did the Hennigs have according to the text?
A．1.B．2.C．3.D．4.
小題4:What did Shelley often do after she became Miss Louisiana Teen?
A．She visited drunken drivers.
B．She gave dance performance.
C．She made speeches on safe driving.
D．She helped other teens with their studies.
小題5:What suggestion does Shelley give to the teens?
A．Be yourself with the support of friends.
B．Meet friends whenever possible.
C．Go easy on yourself and others.
D．Have a good role model

Growing up on a tobacco farm, Emma Avery was used to hard times. When she was seven, her family’s farmhouse burned to the ground. Her father made a temporary (臨時(shí)的) shelter, where eight people had to sleep in two beds. As soon as Emma and her four brothers and two sisters were big enough, they were out in the fields.
Emma would find her comfort in school, even as a C student, thanks to one teacher. When she moved on to middle school, Emma was alarmingly far behind her classmates. She kept her head down, trying not to be noticed, struggling to catch up, and feeling like an outsider.
Then one day, when Emma was 16, a teacher named Mr. Potts changed everything. Looking his students in the eye, Mr. Potts said, "Being a C student does not mean you do not have a valuable contribution to make. Some of you have to work in the fields in the evening and do not have time to study. But if you do your best, you have a gift to give."
The teacher’s words made Emma believe she could do well, and she worked harder. In the end she won a scholarship to St. Paul’s College, graduated with a degree in elementary education in 1967, and got a job in the public-school system. Then, at George Washington University, she received a master’s in education in 1970, and afterwards in the same year she married Ron Smothers.
Over the next six years, Emma taught in public schools in Miami. In 1976, after saving $10,000, she opened her first restaurant in Los Angeles. Eventually Emma stopped teaching, and her business expanded (擴(kuò)展) to six restaurants.
In gratitude (感激) for what she has been able to achieve, Emma donates a lot. She has no idea how much money she’s given away. She says, "Those I want to help are the C students who just need help, direction and confidence."
小題1:The first paragraph serves to show that Emma ______.
A．was poor and had no time to study
B．was born on a tobacco farm
C．was sad to lose her house
D．was kind enough to help support the family
小題2:From the text we learn that Emma ______.
A．won a scholarship to George Washington University
B．was unsuccessful as a businesswoman
C．was thankful to Mr. Potts
D．disliked teaching, and gave up the job
小題3:From the second paragraph we can infer that Emma was ______.
A．unintelligent B．unconfidentC．hard-workingD．Considerate
小題4:The text mainly wants to tell us ______.
A．confidence is the first step to success
B．memory of the past is the teacher of the future
C．something attempted, something done
D．nothing is impossible to a willing heart

Have you ever hated anyone? Well, probably you don’t really hate them. But you do get angry the moment you think of them. If you don’t get out of the anger, it may turn into bitterness(積怨).
Bitterness can come about when we can’t forgive someone who has hurt us or made us angry. Someone might say or do something that hurts us. But we keep it deep inside instead of working through the anger. Before long, a bitter feeling begins to grow. The bitterness shows when we constantly criticize the one who hurt us. We may think we are hurting that person, but we are really only hurting ourselves.
Bitterness is a harmful emotion that affects the whole body. It can lead to serious health problems such as high blood pressure. Bitterness can stop us from concentrating on important things. Instead, we waste time thinking about how we have been hurt.
Finally, holding on to bitterness can hurt our relationships with friends and family members. No one enjoys being around an angry, negative person for very long.
Author Chuck Swindoll once said, “ Life is 10% what happens to us and 90% how we respond to it.” That means when someone hurts you, your response is more important than what happened. You can choose to let go of hurt. You can also choose to hold on to hurt, which results in bitterness.
If you see bitterness in your life, here are some ways to deal with it.
Stop making excuses for it.
You may feel you have a fight to be angry. You may even secretly enjoy making the other person look sad. But in the end, bitterness hurts you much more than the other person.
Forgive and forget it.
The best thing you can do is to forgive and forget. You probably can’t totally put the act out of your mind. But you can decide to forgive the other person. Let it go and move on. You’ll enjoy better health and peace of mind.
小題1:If we don’t release anger, _____ .
A．We will always be criticized and hurt
B．We will not blame others for any reason
C．A bitter feeling will develop in our mind
D．We will not be particular about what others do
小題2:The main idea of Paragraph 3 is _____.
A．The relationships hurt by bitterness.
B．The illness caused by bitterness
C．The reaction of an angry person
D．The negative effects of bitterness
小題3:The author advises us to do the following EXCEPT_____.
A．to hold on to bitterness inside us
B．to forgive the one who hurts you
C．to stop making excuses for the bitterness
D．to forget others’ rude behavior
小題4:By forgiving others, we are able to _____.
A．prevent bad things from happening
B．be friends with the person who hurts us
C．forget the bitter experience completely
D．enjoy good health and a peaceful mind

“Linda, if beating yourself up were an Olympic sport, you’d win a gold medal!”
Annabel, my close friend, stunned（使…震驚）me with that frank observation after I told her how I had mishandled a situation with a student in a third-grade class where I was substituting（代替）. “I should never have let him go to the boy’s room without a pass! It was my fault he got into trouble with the hall monitor! I’m so stupid!”
My friend burst out laughing, and then made her “Olympic” comment. After a brief period of reflection I had to admit that she was right. I did put myself down an awful lot. Why, just during the previous day I had called myself “a slob” for having some papers spread out on my desk, “ugly” when I left the house without makeup and “an idiot” when I left the house for an emergency substitute job without my emergency lesson plan.
In a more reflective tone, Annabel said, “I once took a workshop at church where the woman in charge had us list all the mean things we say about ourselves.”
“How many did you have on your list?” I asked.
“Fifteen,” she confessed. “But then the teacher said, ‘Now turn to the person next to you and say all the items on your list as if you were speaking to that person!’ ”
My jaw dropped，“What did you do?”
“Nothing. Nobody did. We all just sat there, until I said, ‘I could never say these things to anyone else!’ ”
“And our teacher replied, ‘Well, if you can’t say them to anyone else, then don’t ever say them to yourself!’ ”
My friend had a point. I would never insult a child of God---and I’m God’s child, too!
God, today let me be as kind to myself as I would be to another of Your children.
小題1:What does Annabel mean by the first sentence of the passage?
A．The writer is a good athlete.
B．The writer scolds herself too much.
C．She is encouraging the writer
D．A gold medal is not a big deal.
小題2:What does the writer intends to tell us through the second and third paragraphs?
A．She has low self-esteem over some small things.
B．She often makes serious mistakes in daily life.
C．She is a third-grade teacher.
D．She cares too much about her appearance.
小題3:We can infer that the underlined word “slob” might be _____.
A．something untidyB．someone dangerousC．something dirtyD．someone lazy
小題4:What can we learn about Annabel?
A．She used to put herself down a lot.
B．She often goes to church.
C．She was in charge of a workshop.
D．She used to be too shy to talk to others.
小題5:What does the writer mean by the last sentence of the passage?
A．She is ready to turn to God for help.
B．She will be kind to all children.
C．She won’t insult(侮辱) herself as well as others.
D．She is willing to be a child of God.

A few days ago, I went to school with lots of books，hoping to get a locker (鎖柜). Suddenly, it started raining heavily. I hurried to pay for my locker, but I was disappointed when they informed me they only accepted cash. I was $ 7.00 short, which meant I had to carry the books back home. It would be an exhausting (令人精疲力竭的) two-hour journey back home with all those books.
An elderly gentleman nearby noticed my problem. He asked how much cash I needed. When I told him I was $7 short, he quickly took out the money from his wallet .“You don’t have to pay me back ,”he said. I was speechless; I didn't know whether to take the money or come back with the books the next day. A young student who was working there noticed my hesitation. “He’s really nice ,”said the student. I was starving this morning and he bought breakfast for me. He always helps people in different ways.
The next day, I went to him and thanked him for trusting me and lending me the money. He said he forgot about it and didn't expect I would give it back. “I’m very happy,” he said,“not because I’m getting my money back, but because this is the right way to go---whatever you get from this world, give it back as much as you possibly can. Spread kindness around the world with the smallest things you can do.”
Later, I found out he wasn’t involved with any charity（慈善）organizations. He has been performing these types of acts for years. Earlier, someone had done something incredibly kind for him and he has been spreading the kindness ever since.
He taught me a very important lesson in life. We come to this world with nothing and we will leave with nothing. Whatever we own, it will become somebody else’s and whatever we leave, it will become somebody else’s.  
小題1:Why did the writer need a locker in the school?
A．To help him get away from the sudden rain.
B．To store his large quantity of books.
C．To carry it back home with his books inside.
D．To make it easier for him to go on a trip.
小題2:When the old gentleman offered the money, the writer was________.
A．touchedB．a(chǎn)mazed C．hesitantD．embarrassed
小題3:From Paragraph 3 we learn that ________.
A．the gentleman worked in the school
B．the gentleman was kind but forgetful
C．the gentleman thought it right to give back to society
D．the gentleman refused to take back the money
小題4:From the passage we can conclude that_______.
A．people shouldn't focus too much on money
B．the writer often takes many books to school
C．there was only $ 7 in the writer's wallet
D．the writer lived not far from the school

About fifty years ago, when television first came out, people thought that radio was no longer useful. Television has both sounds and images（影像）. It is much more real and interesting to watch television than to listen to the radio.
However, fifty years later radio is still very popular and it will be here for a long time. One reason is that we don’t need to see an image when we listen to the music on the radio. In fact, listening with your eyes closed is the best way to listen to a piece of music. You can imagine yourself on a sandy beach or up high on a mountain. In other words, you can create your own images. Moreover, while listening to the radio, you don’t have to take your eyes off your work. For example, you can listen to the radio and drive at the same time. Or you can read a book and listen to the radio. Television, on the other hand, doesn’t have this advantage.
A radio is much smaller than a television. You can take a radio anywhere and turn it on anytime you want. In a quiet place you can use headphones to listen to the news or music on the radio. In this way you won’t disturb anybody.
Moreover, a radio is much cheaper than a television. For less than $ 20 you can buy a small radio and have fun with it.
小題1:What is the passage mainly about?
A．Music.B．Radio.C．Sound.D．Television.
小題2:People like to watch TV because _______.
A．it has headphones to listen to the news
B．they can drive while watching TV
C．it has both sounds and images
D．they can watch with their ears
小題3:We learn from the passage that _______.
A．people can take a radio anywhere and turn it on anytime
B．television came out 50 years ago and it is useless now
C．a(chǎn) radio is more expensive than a television
D．people can use headphones to read books
