It was the first snow of winter — an exciting day for every child but not for most teachers. Up until now, I had been able to dress myself for recess(課間休息), but today I would need some help. Miss Finlayson, my kindergarten teacher, had been through first snow days many times in her long career, but I think she may still remember this one.
I managed to get into my wool snow pants. But I struggled with my jacket because it didn’t fit well. It was a hand-me-down from my brother, and it made me wonder why I had to wear his ugly clothes. At least my hat and matching scarf(圍巾) were mine, and they were quite pretty. Finally it was time to have Miss Finlayson help me with my boots(靴子). In her calm, motherly voice she said, "By the end of winter, you will be able to put on your own boots.” I didn’t realize at the time that this was more a statement of hope than of confidence.
I handed her my boots and stuck out my foot. Like most children, I expected the adult to do all the work. After much wiggling and pushing, she managed to get first one into place and then, with a sigh, worked the second one on too.
I announced,“They’re on the wrong feet.” With the grace that only experience can bring,she struggled to get the boots off and went through the joyless task of putting them on again. Then I said,“These aren’t my boots, you know.” As she pulled the offending boots from my feet, she still managed to look both helpful and interested. Once they were off, I said,“They are my brother’s boots. My mother makes me wear them, and I hate them!” Somehow, from long years of practice, she managed to act as though I wasn’t an annoying(煩人的) little girl.She pushed and shoved, less gently this time, and the boots were returned to their proper place on my feet. With a great sigh of relief, seeing the end of her struggle with me, she asked, “Now, where are your gloves?’’
I looked into her eyes and said, “I didn’t want to lose them, so I put them into the toes of my boots.”
小題1:According to the passage, the little girl got_______from her brother.
A.the wool snow pants and the jacket
B.the jacket and the boots
C.the jacket and the hat
D.the boots and the gloves
小題2:Why does the author say Miss Finlayson would remember that first snow day?
A.Because the little girl played a trick on her.
B.Because it was the most exciting day of the winter.
C.Because the little girl was in her brother’s clothes.
D.Because the little girl wore a pretty scarf.
小題3:We can learn from the text that Miss Finlayson_________.
A.was losing confidence in the little girl
B.gradually lost patience with the little girl
C.because disappointed with the little girl
D.was getting bored with the little girl
小題4:It can be inferred(推斷) that before the little girl finally went out to enjoy the first snow of      winter,the teacher had to help her put on her boots __________.
A.onceB.twiceC.three timesD.four times

Michael Jackson fans are coming a Chicago museum to see a 3,000 year old Egyptian statue which looks remarkably like the late king of pop. Staff have been rushed off their feet since Jackson's death as thousands of mourners visit the exhibition to pay tribute to the star.
The statue has skinny cheeks and - most strikingly - a tipless nose. It is on display at the Ancient Egypt exhibition at The Field Museum in the United States. The bust(半身像) was bought in Cairo in 1889 and has been on display at the museum for 21 years.
But its popularity has risen rapidly since Michael Jackson's death after fans started writing about the ancient statue on internet blogs. The bust was carved during the New Kingdom Period, which ran between 1550 BC to 1050 BC. This was around the same time as famous Egyptians Ramesses and King Tut.
The museum's 4,500 daily visitors are banned from touching or kissing the statue, which is protected behind a glass screen. Astonished fans stand admiring the statue and discussing its likeness with others who have travelled to see it.
Darnell Williams, the director of guest relations, said some fans were treating a visit to the museum like a pilgrimage(朝圣). He said: "The statue has been here for years but interest has been raised since Michael Jackson's death. People are coming from all over the country to see the statue and compare its likeness to the king of pop.
"They want to touch and kiss the model like it is some sort of God but it is behind a screen to protect it from damage. Once people see it they are astounded and can't stop talking about its likeness. It really is remarkable."
James Phillips, manager of near east and north African exhibits, said little was known about the origins of the model.
He said: "The likeness is astonishing but I think it is probably a coincidence. We do not believe Michael Jackson ever visited the museum or saw the exhibit and there is therefore little chance he based his image on it. We believe the model is missing a nose because early Christians or Muslims removed noses from paintings and models to make them non-human.
小題1:Many people are streaming to see the Egyptian statue to ­­­­­_______.
A.satisfy their curiosity
B.show their respect to Jackson
C.enjoy the splendid Egyptian culture
D.learn about the history of Egyptian
小題2:The underlined words “rushed off their feet” in the first paragraph mean”______”.
A.extremely busyB.rather tired
C.very annoyedD.quite surprised
小題3:The statue is rapidly getting popular mainly because of ________.
A.Jackson’s deathB.its archaeological value
C.the InternetD.its long history
小題4:It can be inferred that the exhibits at the Ancient Egypt exhibition are classified by _________.
A.a(chǎn)geB.a(chǎn)reaC.kindD.value
