閱讀下列短文,完成文后題目。

  This morning I woke from a wonderful night's sleep. Not just a good night's sleep, but one of those completely satisfying sleeps - - extremely rare and difficult to explain, but if you've ever had one you know what I am talking about.

  No amount of riches could buy a better night's sleep. As silly as that sounds, it was the first things that crossed my mind when I awoke. I truly appreciated my joyful rest. It was like a gift from the heaven. Interesting to think that Bill Gates or any other billionaire you can mention, really couldn't have had a more satisfying, fulfilling night of sleep. The best that money can't buy.

  That started me thinking of other pleasures that cost nothing or very little and that are often taken for granted. Like a drink of cold water on a hot day when you're really thirsty. Or a warm relaxing bath when you're bone tired or mentally exhausted.

  Remember your first real kiss-can you put a price on that? Or the companionship of a faithful and loving pet or the clean, fresh smell of mountain air? There's an old song,“The Best Things in Life Are Free.”

  Did you ever eat a meal that not only filled your belly (肚子) and satisfied your taste, but refresh your soul? Ever spend a winter's evening in the company of good friends?

  What could be better than listening to your favorite music or watching good movie? Or sharing the beauty of sunset with a loved one? These are quiet delightssmall pleasures. I hope this doesn't sound too ridiculous (可笑的) in today's rough, loud world. I wonder if the new generation can appreciate some such things.

  We're told we need the latest model car, or TV or computer to be happy, but it's all a cheat, a marketing move. It never lasts for long, either. No sooner do we get these things than we're looking to replace them with a newer car, or TV or computer.

  This is not to say that…

1.Which of the following are the best things according to the passage?

[  ]

A.A good night's sleep, a suit of clothes in fashion.

B.A fire that can warm yourself in freezing weather, a beautiful flower sent to the respected person.

C.An expensive computer, a big meal that fill your stomach.

D.A wonderful film that interests you, a new house in the country.

2.The underlined word“that”in the 2nd paragraph probably refers to ________.

[  ]

A.dreams during the sleep

B.a(chǎn) satisfying night's sleep

C.Bill Gates and some other famous persons

D.the whole first paragraph

3.The best tile of the passage might be ________.

[  ]

A.Best Things Money Can't Buy

B.A Good Night's Sleep

C.Best Things In Life Are Free

D.Mental and Physical Pleasures in Life

4.We can conclude that the part that follows this passage mainly deals with the subject ________.

[  ]

A.a(chǎn)bout many other physical pleasures in the daily life

B.why young generation can't appreciate the small quiet pleasures

C.what is the proper time to buy the new car, TV or computer.

D.money also plays an important part in our everyday life

Scars of Love

Some years ago on a hot summer day in south Florida a little boy decided to go for a swim in the old swimming hole behind his house. In a hurry to dive into the cool water, he ran out of the back door, leaving behind shoes, socks and shirt as he went.

He flew into the water, not realizing that as he swam toward the middle of the lake, an alligator(短吻鱷) was getting close. The mother in the house was looking out of the window and saw the two as they got closer and closer together. In great fear, she ran toward the water, yelling to her son as loudly as she could. Hearing her voice, the little boy became alarmed and made a U-turn to swim to his mother. It was too late. Just as he reached her, the alligator reached him. From the dock, the mother grabbed her little boy by the arms just as the alligator snatched (抓住) his legs. That began an unbelievable tug-of-war (拔河比賽) between the two. The alligator was much stronger than the mother, but the mother was much too passionate to let go. A farmer happened to drive by, heard their screams, rushed from his truck, took aim and shot the alligator.

Remarkably, after weeks and weeks in the hospital, the little boy survived. His legs were extremely scarred (留下傷疤) by the terrible attack of the animal. And on his arms, were deep scratches where his mother’s fingernails dug into his flesh in her effort to hang on to the son she loved.

The newspaper reporter, who interviewed the boy after the trauma (外傷), asked if he would show him his scars. The boy lifted the pant legs. And then, with obvious pride, he said to the reporter, “Look at my arms. I have great scars on my arms, too. I have them because my mum wouldn’t let go.”

You and I can identify with (認(rèn)同) that little boy. We have scars, too. Not from an alligator, but the scars of a painful past. Some of those scars are unsightly and have caused us deep regret. But, some wounds, my friends, are because we have refused to let go.

56. The underlined part “the two” in the second paragraph refers to ______.

   A. the alligator and the mother         B. the mother and the son

C. the driver and the alligator          D. the son and the alligator

57. From the passage we can infer ________.

   A. The mother was unwilling to let the alligator go

   B. The mother was actually stronger than the alligator

   C. The son was proud of his scars on his arms

   D. The son was ashamed of his scars on his legs

58. According to the last paragraph, what is the writer’s real meaning?

   A. To forget the past is to betray.       B. We should forget the scars.

   C. Wounds are different from scars.     D. We should learn to let go sometimes.
