A rat looked through a crack in the wall to see the farmer and his wife opening a package. What food might it contain? But he discovered that it was a rattrap (捕鼠夾）.
Going back to the farmyard, the rat started to give a warning.
The rat turned to the pig and told him:“There is a rattrap in the house, a rattrap in the house!”
“I’m sorry, Mr. Rat,” said the pig, “I can only say this is something terrible to you, but it is of no consequence to me. I cannot be bothered with it.”
The rat turned to the cow. But the cow said, “Like wow, Mr. Rat? A rattrap? I am in danger, Huh?”
The rat returned to the house, head down and dejected. So the rat had to face the farmer's rattrap alone.
That very night, a sound was heard throughout the house, like the sound of a rattrap catching its prey (獵物). The farmer's wife rushed to see what was caught.In the darkness, she did not notice that it was a poisonous snake whose tail had been caught by the trap. The snake bit her.The farmer rushed her to hospital. She returned home with a fever. Everyone knows that a fever could be treated with fresh chicken soup, so the farmer took his knife to the farmyard for the soup. However, his wife's sickness continued.
The farmer's friends and neighbors came to sit with her around the clock. To feed them, the farmer killed the pig. But she didn't get well. Finally, she died, and so many people came for the last sight that the farmer had the cow killed to provide meat for all of them.
So the next time you hear that someone is facing a problem and think that it does not concern you, remember that the whole farmyard is at risk when there is a rattrap in the house.
小題1:From the passage we know that ______.
A．the pig helped the rat get rid of the trap
B．the cow strongly believed in what the rat said
C．no animals showed concern over the rat's warning
D．the snake was killed immediately after being caught

A．the farmer had planned to kill the rat
B．the rat was very clever in avoiding the trap
C．the farmer's wife got good treatment in hospital
D．the rat had expected what would happen to the pig and cow
小題4: What message does the story intend to pass?

The farmer knelt down at the boy's side and said, “Son, you don't want that puppy. He will never be able to run and play with you like these other dogs would.”

In doing so, he showed a steel brace(固定器) running down both sides of his leg attaching itself to a specially made shoe.

John H. Johnson was born in a black family in Arkansas city in 1918. His father died in an accident when John was six. He was reaching the high school age, but his hometown offered no high school for blacks.
Fortunately he had a strong-willed (意志堅(jiān)強(qiáng)的) caring mother. John remembered that his mother told him many times, “Son, you can be anything you want really to be if you just believe.”She told him not to depend on others, including his mother. “You have to earn success, ”she said. “All the people who work hard don’t succeed, but the only people who do succeed are those who work hard.”
These words came from a woman with less than a third grade education. She also knew that believing and hard work don’t mean everything. So she worked hard as a cook for two years to save enough to take her son, who was then 15, to Chicago.
Chicago in 1933 was not the promised land that black southerners were looking for. John’s mother and stepfather could not find work. But here John could go to school, and here he learned the power of words—as an editor of the newspaper and yearbook at Du Sable High School His wish was to publish a magazine for blacks.
While others discouraged him, John’s mother offered him more words to live by.“Nothing beats a failure but a try. ”She also let him pawn(典當(dāng))her furniture to get the $ 500 he needed to start the Negro magazine.
It is natural that difficulties and failures followed John closely until he became very successful. He always keeps his mother’s words in mind.“Son, failure is not in your vocabulary!”
Now John H. Johnson is one of the 400 richest people in America—worth $ 150 million.
小題1:John’s mother decided to move to Chicago because _____.
A．his father died when John was very young
B．life was too hard for them to stay on in their hometown
C．John needed more education badly
D．there were no schools for Negroes in their hometown
小題2:John’s mother_____________________
A．didn’t believe in or depend on others
B．thought one could be whatever one wanted to be
C．believed one would succeed without working hard
D．thought no one could succeed without working hard
小題3:The underlined sentence“Nothing beats a failure but a try. ”means _____.
A．if you try, you would succeed
B．a(chǎn) failure is difficult to beat, even if you try
C．a(chǎn) try is always followed by a failure
D．no failure can be beaten unless you try
小題4:The story mainly tells us _____.
A．how John H. Johnson became successful
B．a(chǎn)bout the mental (心理的) support John’s mother gave him
C．a(chǎn)bout the importance of a good education
D．a(chǎn)bout the key to success for blacks
