One day, Wilson was walking quietly along the road when someone hit him hard on the back of his neck. He looked behind him, and saw a young man whom he had never seen before.
“How dare you hit me like that?” shouted Wilson.
The young man said he had mistaken Wilson for a friend of his and that he thought Wilson was making a lot of noise about nothing.
This insult(侮辱) made Wilson even angrier, of course, and he at once decided to bring the young man before a judge.
Now , the judge who heard the case was a friend of the young man’s father’s, and, although he pretended to be quite fair, he was thinking about what he could do to protect the young man from being punished while at the same time not to be appearing unfair.
Finally he said to Wilson, “I understand your feelings in this matter very well. Would you be satisfied if I let you hit the young man as he hit you?”
Wilson said he would not be. The young man had insulted him and should be properly punished.
“Well, then,” said the judge to the young man, “I order you to pay ten coins to Wilson.”
Ten coins was very little for such a crime, but the young man did not have it with him, so the judge allowed him to go and get it.
Wilson waited for him to return with the money. He waited an hour, and then two hours, while the judge took care of other business.
When it was nearly time for the court to close, Wilson chose a moment when the judge was especially busy, came up quietly and hit him hard on the back of the neck. Then he said to him, “I am sorry, but I can’t wait any longer. When the young man comes back, tell him that I have passed my right to the ten coins on to you.”

Robby was 11 when his mother dropped him off for his first piano lesson. I prefer students begin at an earlier age. Robby insisted that it had always been his mother’s dream to hear him play the piano, so I took him in as a student.
Robby tried and tried while I listened and encouraged him and gave him more instructions (指導(dǎo)). But he just did not have any inborn ability.
I only saw his mother from a distance. She always waved and smiled but never came in. Then one day Robby stopped coming to our lessons. I thought about calling him but I guessed he had decided to try something else.
I was also glad that he stopped coming for the sake of my career. However, several weeks before the recital (演奏會(huì)) of my students, Robby came，telling me that he never stopped practicing and begged me to allow him to take part. I agreed but I made him perform last in the program, so I could always save his poor performance through my “curtain closer”.
I was surprised when he announced that he had chosen one piece of Mozart’s. Never had I heard a piece of Mozart’s played so well by someone at his age. When he finished, everyone was cheering.
I ran up and put my arms around Robby in joy. “I’ve never heard you play like that, Robby!  How’d you do it?”
“Well, Miss Hondorf. Do you remember I told you my mom was sick? Actually she died this morning. She was born deaf so tonight was the first time she could hear me play. I wanted to make it special. I knew I could.”  That night, Robby was the teacher and I was the student. He taught me so many important things about life.
小題1:Why did Robby stop coming to the piano lessons suddenly?
A．He lost heart and believed that he would never make it.
B．His mother was too sick to send him to the piano lessons.
C．He thought his teacher disliked him.
D．His mother died and he didn’t need to play any longer.
小題2: Which statement is NOT true according to the passage?
A．The writer thought playing the piano shouldn’t start too late.
B．The writer thought that Robby had given up the piano lesson.
C．The writer taught Robby carefully although he hadn’t a gift for music.
D．No one else could play the piece of Mozart’s well.
小題3:From the underlined sentence we can infer that  _______.
A．the writer looked down upon Robby and disliked him
B．the writer thought Robby a bad advertisement for his teaching
C．with Robby present, the other children couldn’t play well
D．the writer couldn’t teach so many students at a time
小題4: What did the writer learn from Robby?
A．The meaning of true love.
B．The meaning of giving up necessarily.
C．The meaning of being kind to teachers.
D．The meaning of believing in teachers.

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：不詳 題型：閱讀理解

Some time ago I discovered that one of my chairs had a broken leg. I didn't think there would be any difficulty in getting it mended, as there are a whole lot of antique(古董) shops near my home. So I left home one morning carrying the chair with me. I went into the first shop expecting a friendly reception. I was quite wrong. The man wouldn't even look at my chair.
The second shop, though slightly more polite, was just the same, and the third and the fourth—so I decided that my approach must be wrong.
I entered the fifth shop with a plan in my mind. I placed the chair on the floor and said to the shopkeeper, “Would you like to buy a chair?” He looked it over carefully and said, “Yes, not a bad chair. How much do you want for it, sir?”“Twenty pounds,”I said. “OK,”he said. “I'll give you twenty pounds.”“It's got a slightly broken leg,” I said. “Yes, I saw that, it's nothing.”
Everything was going according to plan and I was getting excited. “What will you do with it?” I asked. “Oh, it will be easy to sell once the repair is done.”“I'll buy it,” I said. “What do you mean?” “You've just sold it to me,” he said. “Yes, I know but I've changed my mind. I am sorry. I'll give you twenty seven pounds for it.” “You must be crazy,”he said. Then, suddenly the penny dropped. “I know what you want. You want me to repair your chair.” “You're right,”I said. “And what would you have done if I had walked in and said,‘Would you mend this chair for me?’”“I wouldn't have agreed to do it,”he said. “We don't do repairs, not enough money in it and too much trouble. But I'll mend this for you, shall we say for a fiver(五英鎊鈔票)?” He was a very nice man and was greatly amused by the whole thing.
小題1:We can learn from the text that in the first shop the writer_________.
A．was rather impolite
B．was warmly received
C．a(chǎn)sked the shopkeeper to buy his chair
D．a(chǎn)sked the shopkeeper to repair his chair
小題2:The underlined word “approach” in the second paragraph means _________.
A．plan for dealing with thingsB．decision to sell things
C．idea of repairing thingsD．way of doing things
小題3:The expression “the penny dropped” in the last paragraph means the shopkeeper ____.
A．changed his mindB．a(chǎn)ccepted the offer
C．saw the writer's purposeD．decided to help the writer
小題4:How much did the writer pay?
A．￡5.B．￡7.C．￡20.D．￡27.
