Young Jack moved to a new house. When entering his new bedroom, he saw that it was full of toys but it was tidy. That day he played all he liked, but went to bed without tidying up.
The next morning, when Jack got up, he found all the toys had been put back in their proper places. He was sure that no one had entered his bedroom, but the boy didn’t pay much attention to it. The exact same thing happened that day, and the next day. But on the fourth day when he went to get his favourite toy, the toy jumped out of his hands and said, “I don’t want to play with you!”
Jack felt surprised, but the same happened with every toy he touched. Finally, one toy said to him:
“We don’t want to play with you. You always leave us so far away from our proper places. You don’t know how arduous it is for us to climb back up onto the shelves, or jump into the box. We feel most uncomfortable and unhappy. You don’t know how uncomfortable and cold the floor is! We don’t play with you any more if you don’t promise to leave us in our proper places before you go to bed.”
Jack remembered how comfortable he felt in his bed and how bad he felt when he had once slept in a chair. He realized how badly he had treated his friends, the toys. He asked for their forgiveness(原諒)， and from that day on he always put his toys nicely in their proper places before he got into bed.
小題1:when Jack moved into his bedroom,           .
A．it needed to be cleanedB．he found lots of toys
C．he brought lots of toysD．he put away his toys
小題2:Why did all the toys refuse to play with Jack?
A．because he always broke them.
B．because he didn’t like them any more.
C．because he only played with his favourite one.
D．because he did’t put them in their proper places.
小題3:The underlined word “arduous” in Para.4 probably means         .
A．difficultB．easyC．regularD．useful
小題4:The purpose of the text is to tell us that          .
A．we should have a good sleep

It was a lazy morning during the Christmas week. We were enjoying breakfast when the doorbell rang. It was a little girl, standing at the doorway with a piece of paper and a face that carried an expression of want, rather a common     1   during Christmas.
She murmured that the paper was her booklist and that she was going around     2   money to buy her schoolbooks. My children went inside and brought some     3    for her. This kind of incident happens very often in my hometown,     4    during Christmas.
From where I was seated, I could see her clearly. She looked about ten years old and she wore a dress too big for her. She spoke in a     5    voice and looked at me straight in the eye. Something made me get up and     6    her.
In answer to my questions, she said that her mother made hoppers and she     7    them before going to school. But the hopper money was not adequate to     8    the list; therefore, she was going from house to house asking for help.
Her voice told me the story; her eyes told me that it was     9    . I said I'd buy her what was on the list.
We drove to a nearby bookstore. She sat    10   , with a strange look on her face. When the clerk was taking all the things on the list, the little girl kept staring as if confused. Perhaps she had never    11   so many new things before. They were merely exercise books, pencils, pens and such things. She whispered her    12   to us. Strange, I hadn't been aware that giving such   13        things to one in need, could bring me such a lot of happiness.
As we drove back, I could see the little girl in the mirror. All the gifts I had given in my life never   14   up a face so much. She was grasping the parcel, smiling to herself. The total event made us all very    15   . Our Christmas became more meaningful.

When I was 11, I had an enemy, a girl who liked to point out my shortcomings(缺點). Week by week her list grew: I was very thin, I wasn’t a good student, I talked too much, I was too proud, and so on. I tried to hear all this as long as I could. In the end, I became so angry that I ran to my father with tears in my eyes.
He listened to me quietly, then he asked. “Are the things she says true or not? Janet, didn’t you ever wonder what you’re really like? Well, you now have that girl’s opinion. Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things she said.” I did as he told me. To my great surprise, I discovered that about half the things were true. Some of them I couldn’t change (like being very thin), but a good number I could—and suddenly I wanted to change. For the first time I go to fairly clear picture of myself.
I brought the list back to Dad. He refused to take it.” That’s just for you,” he said.
“You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself. But you have to learn to listen, not just close your ears in anger and feeling hurt. When something said about you is true, you’ll find it will be of help to you. Our world is full of people who think they know your duty. Don’t shut your ears. Listen to them all, but hear the truth and do what you know is the right thing to do.”
Daddy’s advice has returned to me at many important moments. In my life, I’ve never had a better piece of advice. 
小題1:What did the father do after he had heard his daughter’s complaint? 
A．He told her not to pay any attention to whatever”enemy”had said.
B．He criticized (批評) her and told her to overcome her shortcomings.
C．He told her to write down all that her” enemy” had said about her and pay attention only to the things that were true.
D．He refused to take the list and have a look at it.
小題2: What does “Week by week her list grew” mean?
A．Week by week, my shortcomings grew more serious.
B．She had made a list of my shortcomings and she kept on adding new ones to it so that it was growing longer and longer.
C．I was having more and more shortcomings as time went on.
D．Week by week she discovered more shortcomings of mine and pointed them out to me.
小題3: Why did her father listen to her quietly?
A．Because he wasn’t quite sure which girl was telling the truth.
B．Because he had been so angry with his daughter’s shortcomings that he wantedto show this by keeping silent for a while.
C．Because he knew that his daughter would not listen to him at that moment.
D．Because he believed that what her daughter’s “enemy” said was mostly true.
小題4: Which do you think would be the best title for this passage?
A．The Best Advice I’ve Ever Had
B．Not an Enemy,but the Best Friend
C．My Father
D．My Childhood

One of the best-known American writers of children’s books is Alfred Strong, or Doctor Strong, as he is better known to readers everywhere. Now, an art show called “Doctor Strong From Then to Now” is travelling around the United States. The pictures and drawings show the history of Doctor Strong.

At the onset of a northern winter, many dream of warmer climates.In 1934 the Canadian-born composer Colin Mcphee did more than dream. He set out for the island of Bali.
In his book A House in Bali,Colin Mcphee described how he first gained insight into the essence of Balinese music.For about a month he had been working on transcribing a complete score to a Balinese play he had seen. It seemed impossible that so much beauty could be achieved with a scale(音階)of only five tones.
But the distinctive embellishments(修飾音)of the music eluded him.Fortunately a young household helper and his friend decided to assist. One morning they set two objects next to Mcphee’s piano.They were gangas--metal keyed instruments.The two boys played them in what struck Mcphee as”a fast duet(二重奏） in Morse code”.
At last the composer had found the key to Balinese music.“Wait!” Mcphee would call out from the piano as the boys flew along,“Stop!Please!That bit once more!”
Patiently the boys would stop and began again.But soon they were flying again,faster than ever, amazing Mcphee with their memory and precision. Sometimes the patterns repeated.Sometimes they opened up into something new. Then, suddenly the whole duet would fly apart and the boys would burst out laughing,breaking the spell.
Although Colin Mcphee left the island in 1939,he remained spellbound by Balinese music.And its rich,distinctive sound would colour many of the compositions he would write for the next quarter century.
小題1:From the passage we can learn that_______________________.
A．Colin Mcphee set foot on the island of Bali in late winter

For many writers, writing stories or plays is a part-time job: to support themselves they take on other jobs, such as teaching. It is one sign of August Wilson’s success that for many years he has been able to make a living only by writing plays.
Wilson was born in Pittsburgh and dropped out of school in the ninth grade. He was a good reader, however, and continued his education by reading library books, learning about black nationalist movements of the time, and closely observing(觀察) the lives of the poor people.
In the late 1960’s Wilson set up a theater company called Black Horizons and began to think of ways to describe African-American life on the stage. He had the idea of a cycle of plays, each of which was set in a different decade(十年) of the 20th century, showing how African-American life has developed.
The first successful play of this series was Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom about black musicians in Chicago in the 1920s, who are not accepted by white society. Other plays in the series include Joe Turner’s Come and Gone, about blacks in the 1910s who had moved north to Pittsburgh in search of a new identity; Fences, which focuses on a father–son conflict(沖突) in the1950s; and The Piano Lesson, about a 1930s family that was uncertain about whether to sell the family’s treasure. For the last two of these plays Wilson was awarded Pulitzer Prizes.
Wilson has written eight plays in his cycle, the most recent being King Hedley the Second, a play set in the 1980s. His plays are enjoyed by both the blacks and the whites and engage anyone who is interested in African-American experience.
小題1:Wilson won Pulitzer Prizes for ________.
A．The Piano Lesson & Fences
B． Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom & Fences
C．The Piano Lesson & King Hedley the Second
D．King Hedley the Second & Joe Turner’s Come and Gone
小題2: It is possible that in his series of the 20th –century plays, Wilson plans to write ________.
A．no moreB．two more C．three moreD．four more
小題3:The underlined word “engage” in the last paragraph means ________.
A．a(chǎn)ward B．benefitC．pleaseD．a(chǎn)ttract
小題4:What’s the passage mainly about?
A．The life of August Wilson.B．The growth of August Wilson.
C．A cycle of plays of August Wilson.D．August Wilson’s theater company.
