My 8-year-old daughter is making an experiment. She has been making her own colorful smile cards and often takes them with her everywhere.
Last Sunday, I took my kid to go shopping with me. She was hoping to see John, who is an elderly man and gives out samples. We see him from time to time and he is so happy and friendly. John wasn’t at the store on Sunday, so my daughter decided that it would be a good idea to distribute her smile cards to the store’s other employees.
So she did. In the produce department, she gave a card to a young man and she hoped it would make him smile. And he smiled at her and thanked her. Then she came across an older gentleman who looked rather impatient. And she snuck a card into his cart on top of his groceries, remarking to me later that he looked at her suspiciously as if she was dumping trash in his cart. But I thought he would be happy later.
When we got back from our shopping trip, she had run out of cards. She was walking by a woman with two babies in her cart. My daughter smiled at her and the young mother smiled back. My daughter came to me and said excitedly, “Mom, I just realized something. You don’t need cards to make someone smile. All you need to do is make eye contact and smile into their eyes and they will smile back.” 
What a beautiful lesson my daughter reminded me of. You are never too young or too old to experiment with kindness and smiles.
小題1:At first, the writer’s daughter made an experiment by ______.
A.giving smile cardsB.giving samples
C.making eye contactD.giving groceries
小題2:According to the text, John was a man ______.
A.who is very young and livelyB.who may be a salesman
C.who is in trouble and needs smilesD.who is never seen to smile
小題3:The underlined word “distribute” in paragraph 2 probably means ______.
A.make upB.tear upC.give outD.sell out
小題4:From the text, we can learn that ______.
A.John got a smile card from the writer’s daughter
B.the older gentleman would smile later after he got the smile card
C.we could make others smile only by giving them what they wanted
D.the mother with two babies smiled because she got a smile card

The morning for our snowmobiling (雪上汽車) adventure finally arrived, and we set off on the hour-and-a-half drive to the resort. A fresh powder had fallen the night before, and everything was frosted white. We couldn’t have asked for more perfect conditions. The sun sparkled (閃光) on the snow, and the trails (路線) were completely empty – not another person or snowmobile in sight. We were thrilled at being the only people for miles around … until we got going.
As we drove through the deserted wilderness (荒野), my excitement became stone-cold fear. I had no idea what I was afraid of, or why I was afraid, but suddenly every turn, every hill, every steep (陡峭的) side of the mountain scared me to death. I kept picturing us crashing headlong into a tree or falling off the side of a drop. ?
But after lunch things changed. We were the only humans who had been there since the snowfall. The peaceful place, the incredible beauty of the landscape, and the almost sacred experience of sharing a mountain with the wildlife touched my very core (核心).  My mind cleared and quieted and my muscles relaxed.
As we drove the last leg of the run, I began to resent being afraid to drive. Deep down, I wanted to be in charge of the thing that scared me. It made me angry that fear was keeping me from something I really wanted to do. The day was coming to an end, and the resort was only a few miles away. I knew that if I didn’t take my chance now, I would regret it.
I signaled for my husband to pull over. I wanted to drive, although my heart pounded (重?fù)?. I stared off slowly and felt the wind in my face. I smiled and sped up a little. I let out a “Yee-haw!” and went full out, taking my husband on the best ride of the day.
We ended the day on that breathless, carefree, and I felt proud of myself – proud of overcoming my fear.
小題1:What is the story mainly about?
A.What the author loves about snowmobiling.
B.What difficulties the couple faced during their adventure.
C.What interested the author during her time snowmobiling.
D.How the author overcame her fear during her adventure.
小題2: What can be concluded from the article?
A.The author was confident as she was driving in the deserted wilderness.
B.The author didn’t get worried until they started to drive through the deserted wild.
C.Aware that she and her husband were the only people around, the author became anxious.
D.The author was so nervous that she almost crashed into a big tree.
小題3:According to the article, after lunch the author _____.
A.gradually calmed down
B.stopped to enjoy the beautiful scenery
C.saw some wildlife on the mountain
D.was afraid to continue her journey
小題4:The underlined word “resent” in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to _______.
A.consider B.a(chǎn)ppreciateC.hate D.recognize
小題5:What message does the story convey?
A.A person’s biggest enemy is his or her inner self.
B.It’s no use crying over the spilt milk.
C.Take time to enjoy the beauty of nature.
D.Respect and take pride in yourself.

A year after graduation, I was offered a position teaching a writing class. Teaching was a profession I had never seriously considered, though several of my stories had been published. I accepted the job without hesitation, as it would allow me to wear a tie and go by the name of Mr. Davis. My father went by the same name, and I liked to imagine people getting the two of us confused. “Wait a minute,” someone might say, “are talking about Mr. Davis the retired man, or Mr. Davis the respectable scholar?”
The position was offered at the last minute, and I was given two week to prepare, a period I spent searching for a briefcase and standing before my full-length mirror, repeating the words, “Hello, class, I’m Mr. Davis.” Sometimes I would give myself an aggressive voice. Sometimes I would sound experienced. But when the day eventually came, my nerves kicked in and the true Mr. Davis was there. I sounded not like a thoughtful professor, but rather a 12-year-old boy.
I arrived in the classroom with paper cards designed in the shape of maple leaves. I had cut them myself out of orange construction paper. I saw nine students along a long table. I handed out the cards, and the students wrote down their names and fastened them to their breast pockets as I required.
“All right then,” I said. “Okay, here we go.” Then I opened my briefcase and realized that I had never thought beyond this moment. I had been thinking that the students would be the first to talk, offering their thoughts and opinions on the events of the day. I had imagined that I would sit on the edge of the desk, overlooking a forest of raised hands. Every student would shout to be heard, and I would knock on something in order to silence them. I would yell, “Calm down, you’ll all get your turn. One at a time, one at a time!”
A terrible silence ruled the room, and seeing no other opinions, I instructed the students to pull out their notebooks and write a brief essay related to the theme of deep disappointment.
小題1:The author took the job to teach writing because______________.
A.he wanted to be respectedB.he had written some stories
C.he wanted to please his fatherD.he had dreamed of being a teacher
小題2:What can we learn about the author from Paragraph 2?
A.He would be aggressive in his first class.B.He was well-prepared for his first class.
C.He got nervous upon the arrival of his first class.D.He waited long for the arrival of his first class.
小題3:Before he started his class, the author asked the students to_______.
A.write down their suggestions on the paper cards
B.cut maple leaves out of the construction paper
C.cut some cards out the construction paper
D.write down their names on the paper cards
小題4: What did the students do when the author started his class?
A.They began to talk.B.They stayed silent.
C.They raised their hands.D.They shouted to be heard.
小題5:The author chose the composition topic probably because________.
A.he got disappointed with his first class
B.he had prepared the topic before class.
C.he wanted to calm down the students
D.he thought it was an easy topic

A young man was getting ready to graduate from college. For many months he had admired a beautiful sports car in a dealer's showroom, and knowing his father could well afford it, he told him that was all he wanted.
As Graduation Day approached, the young man awaited signs that his father had purchased the car. Finally, on the morning of his graduation, his father called him into his private study. His father told him how proud he was to have such a fine son, and told him how much he loved him. He handed his son a beautiful wrapped gift box. Curious, but somewhat disappointed, the young man opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound Bible, with the young man's name embossed in gold. Angrily, he raised his voice to his father and said, "With all your money you give me a Bible?" He then stormed out of the house, leaving the Bible.
Many years passed and the young man was very successful in business. He had a beautiful home and a wonderful family, but realizing his father was very old, he thought perhaps he should go to see him. He had not seen him since that graduation day. Before he could make the arrangements, he received a telegram telling him his father had passed away, and willed all of his possessions to his son. He needed to come home immediately and take care of things.
When he arrived at his father's house, sudden sadness and regret filled his heart. He began to search through his father's important papers and saw the still new Bible, just as he had left it years ago. With tears, he opened the Bible and began to turn the pages. As he was reading, a car key dropped from the back of the Bible. It had a tag with the dealer's name, the same dealer who had the sports car he had desired. On the tag was the date of his graduation, and the words. "PAID IN FULL".
How many times do we miss blessings because they are not packaged as we expected? Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; but remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for.
Sometimes we don't realize the good fortune we have or we could have because we expect "the packaging" to be different. What may appear as bad fortune may in fact be the door that is just waiting to be opened.
小題1:According to the passage we can infer that _________.
A.the author’s father was once very rich.
B.the author’s father didn’t love him.
C.the author’s father had not enough money to buy a run car.

小題2:When author graduated from his school, his father sent him _________.
A.a(chǎn) beautiful run carB.a(chǎn) new leather-bound Bible
C.a(chǎn) gift he hoped forD.only an empty box
小題3:After graduation, author _________ before his father died.
A.often went to see his fatherB.had never gone home
C.went home once in the whileD.a(chǎn)lways contacted his father by phone
小題4:The passage can imply that _________.
A.Good fortune lies within bad, bad fortune lurks within good.
B.The author’s father didn’t understand his child.
C.where there is a will, there is a way.
D.Every man is the son of his own works.
