Dear Bob,

I’m sorry to tell you that I cannot go to the bookstore with you on this Sunday, because something unlucky occurred to me in the PE class yesterday.

I was playing basketball with my friends while I jumped highly to catch the ball. Another student struck me on a leg accidentally, that made me break my leg. The situation made everyone nervous. However, I was sent to the nearest hospital as soon as possible. The doctor suggested that I rested until next Friday. I hope the change will not cause you too much troubles.

Shall I go on next Saturday morning? We can set out early so that we’ll have more time read and select books.

Yours,

Li Hua

【題目】People are like potatoes. After potatoes have been harvested they have to 1(spread)out and sorted in order to get the maximum market dollar. They are divided according to size—big, 2 and small. After the potatoes have been sorted and bagged, 3 are loaded onto trucks. All Idaho potato farmers use this method—all but 4.

One farmer never bothered to sort the potatoes at all. Yet he made the most money. A 5(puzzle) neighbor finally asked him, “6 is your secret?” He said, “It's simple. I just load up the wagon with 7 and take the roughest road to town. During the eight-mile trip, the little potatoes always fall to the 8. The medium potatoes land in the middle, 9 the big potatoes rise to the top.” That's not only true 10 potatoes. It is a law of life. Big potatoes rise to the top on rough roads, and tough people rise to the top in rough times.

【題目】“Her grades are fine; I’m not worried about that, but she just doesn’t seem to love learning any more.” Alice’s mum said.

She’s absolutely right. I’d noticed the same thing about her daughter over the previous two or three years when I’d been Alice’s middle school English, Latin, and writing teacher, and I have an answer, right there on the tip of my tongue, for what has gone wrong. Yet I’m torn between my responsibility to help Alice, and the knowledge that what I have to say is a truth I’m not sure this mother is ready to hear.

The truth—for this parent and so many others—is this: Her child has sacrificed her natural curiosity and love of learning at the altar(圣壇) of achievement, and it’s our fault. Alice’s parents, her teachers, society at large—we are all supposed to be blamed in this crime against learning. From her first day of school, we pointed her toward that altar and trained her to measure her progress by means of points, scores, and awards. We taught Alice that her potential is tied to her intellect(智力) ,and that her intellect is more important than her character. We taught her to come home proudly bearing grades As, championship prizes, and college acceptances, and not on purpose, we taught her that we don’t really care how she obtains them. We taught her to protect her academic and extracurricular perfection at all costs and that it’s better to quit when things get challenging rather than risk losing that perfect record. Above all else, we taught her fear failure. That fear is what has destroyed her love of learning.

1Both the mother and the teacher have noticed that ________.

A. Alice hates to tell them truth

B. Alice’s test scores are not so good

C. Alice chooses several subjects to learn

D. Alice doesn’t enjoy studying any more

2What does the underlined word “torn” mean in the passage?

A. pained to choose B. guilty to quit C. tired to manage D. certain to decide

3What does the teacher think of the girl?

A. Her academic perfection resulted from her character.

B. She is a gifted girl with spirits of challenging.

C. She is perfect in her character development.

D. Her academic performance is great.

4What leads to the girl’s change?

A. A few failure experiences. B. Fear of failing getting good grades.

C. Her mother’s over-protection. D. Her not being accepted by colleges.
