    I will be the first to say that I am not materialistic. My friends regard me as a goody-goody; my parents say I am conservative and modest when it comes to clothes. None of my skirts or shorts end above my knees.
    So why, why did I feel so invited? My family and I were in Target, and there it was, waiting. A skirt, specifically designed not to cover anything. It looked like something that one of those modern schoolgirls would wear.
    I checked my purse. The skirt cost $10. I had the money. I could buy it. I imagined walking into school and my friends’ jaws (下巴) dropping. Guys would ask me out, and I would be happy. I could buy it, no, — I should buy it.
    I showed my mother. She was surprised but said it was my decision. My sister looked on enviously.
    I went into the dressing room to try it on. So sure was I that this skirt would change me, somehow make me not what I am but what I wished to be. I slid my jeans off and put it on. I looked in the mirror. There I was — a terrible girl in a Superman T-shirt and sneakers. My glasses fogged up as I started to cry.
    The skirt did not change me. Though it fit well and might make me look good in the eyes of today’s world, it was not me. I am not a girl who wears cool clothes to fit in.
    I took the thing off and slid back into the ­comfort of modesty. My mom knocked on the door. “Emily, are you okay?”
    I wiped away my tears. “I’m fine.” I looked in the ­mirror again and saw a slim girl with funny ­glasses. I saw myself.
    小题1:In the author’s eyes the skirt that interested her was ______.
    A．not modernB．very short
    C．too expensiveD．poorly designed
    小题2:The author thought if she went to school in this skirt her schoolmates would be ______.

    A．hesitated about buying the skirt
    B．made up her mind to buy the skirt
    C．was able to afford to buy the skirt

    小题4:The author cried because ______.
    A．she found that she looked ugly in the skirt
    B．she was aware the skirt didn’t fit her well
    C．she realized it’s a wrong decision to make a change
    D．she was disappointed the skirt failed to change her

    小题1:B
    小题2:A
    小题3:B
    小题4:C

    试题分析： 本文叙述了一个女孩子到商店买衣服的事情，她选中了一件和她原来的风格完全不一样的裙子，最后还是发现这样的决定也许会是错误的。
    小题1:B 推理题。根据文章第2段2,3行A skirt, specifically designed not to cover anything. It looked like something that one of those modern schoolgirls would wear. 可知作者认为这个裙子不能盖住任何东西，也就是认为这个裙子太短了！故B正确。
    小题2:.A 推理题。根据文章第三段I imagined walking into school and my friends’ jaws (下巴) dropping. Guys would ask me out, and I would be happy.可知如果我穿了这样的衣服，我的同学们可能惊讶的下巴都要掉了。说明他们会非常震惊。故A正确。
    小题3:B 推理题。根据Guys would ask me out, and I would be happy. I could buy it, no, — I should buy it. 可知如果我穿了这件衣服，男孩子胡请我出去，那样我会很开心，我能够买！不是应该把它买下来。可知作者下定决心要把这件衣服买下来。故B正确。
    小题4:C 推理题。根据文章倒数第3段The skirt did not change me. Though it fit well and might make me look good in the eyes of today’s world, it was not me. I am not a girl who wears cool clothes to fit in. 可知这件裙子并不能改变我的本质，而且穿上去和我的整个风格不搭配。这个改变也许是错误的。故C正确。

    On a Sunday morning, I was driving down a road and saw something I couldn’t believe. A little girl, less than two, was pushing her stroller (婴儿车) across the road. It was Sunday morning and traffic was not heavy.
    I stopped my car at once and ran toward her. This little girl knew enough to run from a stranger. I tried to catch her in order that I could get her out of the road.
    Suddenly her father came running down a hill across the road from where I had parked my car. He ran right to her and caught her up, saying “bad girl” to her. I picked up the stroller and gave it to him. The father grabbed the stroller and walked toward where he came from without a word.
    I went back and sat in my car for a few minutes with my son. My hands were shaking and tears were about to run out of my eyes. “Do you feel cold, Mom?” asked my son. I just shook my head.
    After this happened, I thought about how thankful I am. Even though the father didn’t say thank you, I feel that I did something good. Doing something for someone else is pleasing, even when it’s only a matter of being in the right place at the right time.
    I didn’t really “save” her, but I feel like it was important that I happened to be there. It is sad that I was the only one who stopped. It really made me a little disappointed that no one else stopped to help.
    小题1:When the author saw the little girl, _____.
    A．the girl had lost her way
    B．she was driving to work in a hurry
    C．the girl feared to go across the road
    D．there weren’t many cars on the road
    小题2:The little girl ran away from the author because _____.
    A．she wanted to stay on the road
    B．she didn’t know the author at all
    C．she wanted to look for her father
    D．she needed to catch her stroller
    小题3:Why were the author’s hands shaking?
    A．Because she was not feeling well.
    B．Because she was too excited to keep calm.
    C．Because the weather was very cold at that time.
    D．Because she failed to be understood by the girl’s father.
    小题4: The author thought that her help was _____.
    A．really necessaryB．worth praisingC．not welcomeD．not useful

    I made a pledge(发誓) to myself on the way down to the vacation beach cottage. For two weeks I would try to be a loving husband and father. 
    The idea had come to me as I listened to a talk on my car radio. The speaker was quoting a Biblical (圣经的) passage about husbands being thoughtful of their wives. Then he went on to say, “Love is an act of will. A person can choose to love.” To myself, I had to admit that I had been a selfish husband. Well, for two weeks that would change.
    And it did. Right from the moment I kissed Evelyn at the door and said, “That new yellow sweater looks great on you.”
    “Oh, Tom, you noticed,” she said, surprised and pleased. Maybe a little puzzled.
    After the long drive, I wanted to sit and read. Evelyn suggested a walk on the beach. I started to refuse, but then I thought, “Evelyn’s been alone here with kids all week and now she wants to be alone with me.” We walked on the beach while the children flew the kites.
    So it went. Two weeks of not calling the Wall Street firm where I am a director; a visit to the shell museum though I usually hate museums. Relaxed and happy, that’s how the whole vacation passed. I made a new pledge to keep on remembering to choose love.
    There was one thing that went wrong with my experiment, however. Evelyn and I still laugh about it today. On the last night at our cottage, preparing for bed, Evelyn stared at me with the saddest expression. “What’s the matter?” I asked her.
    “Tom, ” she said in a voice filled with sadness, “do you know something I don’t?”
    “What do you mean?”
    “Well…..that checkup(体检) I had several weeks ago….. our doctor ….. did he tell you something about me? Tom, you’ve been so good to me….. am I dying ?”
    It took a moment for it all to sink in. Then I burst out laughing.
    “No, honey,” I said, wrapping her in my arms. “You’re not dying; I’m just start to live.”
    小题1:The writer thought he was a _______ husband in the past.
    A．lovelyB．loyalC．strictD．selfish
    小题2: From the story we may infer that Tom drove to the beach cottage _______.
    A．with his familyB．with EvelynC．aloneD．with his children
    小题3: The underlined words “one thing” in the text refer to the fact that _______.
    A．he praised her sweater, which puzzled her
    B．she insisted on visiting a museum, which he hated
    C．he knew something about her illness but didn’t tell her
    D．he was so good to her that she thought she must be dying

    Moving can bring out the best and the worst in people, I’m finding. And I’ve discovered where a very generous spirit lives: Defiance, Ohio.
    After suffering through many months of unemployment, my wife and I had to move this week from Colorado to Ohio, where she would work as a sales assistant. Not knowing a person there, we were pretty concerned about all the work, including how we’d get all the things unloaded without killing ourselves.
    We decided to pay a couple of college students to help with all the heavy lifting once we got there. But one neighbor after another stopped by and joined in. “What? Have we moved to some other country? Maybe we’ve died and gone to heaven!” I thought.
    Unloading actually became fun as we connected with so many wonderful new friends as we worked. The more people that helped, the easier the work became. A job we were afraid might take days for the two of us alone was done in just a few hours. Many total strangers would either walk by or drive by to ask us if we were moving in. Many were delighted that this fine old house that had sat empty for so long was coming to life again. We were invited to an outdoor meal yesterday by neighbors on the same street.
    All the while, my brain was on this new sense of hope that people could be outgoing and kind to strangers. Among all the conversations were lots of offers to be of help to one another in a variety of ways. It’s wonderful to live in such a kind little town. I feel so grateful to be here, and wish the rest of the world could see how an entire society can be a model for what it’s like to look out for one another. I used to stay away from friendships with strangers, but now I live in Defiance!
    小题1:The author and his wife moved to Defiance because ________.
    A．they thought moving often brought out the best
    B．a couple of students had promised to help them
    C．they liked this little town
    D．his wife had found a job
    小题2:When offered help, the author at first felt________.
    A．grateful B．surprised C．embarrassed D．excited
    小题3:The neighbors did all of the following EXCEPT________.
    A．help them unload B．invite them to a dinner
    C．offer to drive them around D．welcome their coming
    小题4:What can we know about the author’s past life?
    A．He hated to live in a little town.
    B．He liked to make friends with strangers.
    C．He usually offered some help to others.
    D．He refused to make friends with strangers.
    小题5:The author mainly wants to tell us ________.
    A．we don’t know what is good until we have lost it
    B．kindness is the sunshine of social life
    C．where there is a will, there is a way
    D．there is no place like home

    The 30-mile road that runs through the mountains of Willie Valley makes most drivers′ hands sweat. But Andersen, a 46-year-old father of four, wasn’t expecting any trouble on the road last New Year’s Eve, when he set off for a ski trip to the Bear Mountains with nine-year-old daughter Mia, four-old son Baylor, and nine-year-old neighbor Kenya. Andersen had driven through the Valley hundreds of times over the years.
    The weather was fine. But the higher they drove, the more slippery the road became. Rounding a sharp U-turn, Andersen saw a heavy truck off the road and immediately hit his brakes. In a minute, the car was going at 25 miles per hour down the mountain before falling down from a ten-foot dam into the extremely cold Logan River.
    The crash had broken a few windows, and within seconds, the car was filled with water. “It was frightening that we were going fast into deep water,” remembers Andersen, a soft-spoken manager.
    Having lost all sense of direction, Andersen began to search the freezing water for the kids. Mia had been right next to him in the front seat; now, in the blackness, he couldn’t find her. “I thought, if I don’t get out, maybe none of us are going to get out.” Andersen got out of his seat belt, swam through a broken window, and, deeply and quickly, breathed air at the surface. That’s when he saw a group of men, about ten in all, appear at the top of the dam. One after another, they rushed down into the water. Helping onto safety all the three children, they began to shout at the father, “Who else is in the car？”
    Andersen says respectfully, “It was like the sight of angels.”
    小题1: What might be the main cause of the car accident？
    A．The bad weather.B．The high dam.
    C．The sudden brake.D．The heavy truck.
    小题2: Andersen didn’t expect any trouble on the road because _____.
    A．he was familiar with the road
    B．he was good at driving
    C．his hands didn’t have sweat
    D．the weather was fine
    小题3: What can be learned from the last paragraph？
    A．Andersen lost consciousness in the water.
    B．Strangers helped Andersen out of the car.
    C．Andersen liked Mia most among the children.
    D．Strangers teamed together to save three children.
    小题4:The underlined sentence is to express Andersen’s feeling of being _____.
    A．tiredB．excitedC．doubtfulD．thankful
    小题5:Which of the following can be the best title of the text？
    A．Stay calm when in trouble
    B．Drive rounding a U-turn
    C．Miracle rescue from a river
    D．Mystery of the Bear Mountains

    A feeling of excitement overcame me as I looked around the stadium.
    At 5:30 pm, two hours before game time, I walked into the locker room (更衣室）.My     of school, music and what I planned to do on Saturday night were       with the simple aim to beat the football team across the field from us tonight.
    Approaching my locker (衣物柜），I noticed my teammates       .Some rested on benches, staring up at the ceiling       it were a film of the opposing team’s play. Some seemed a bit more       , using the time to tell jokes. A few stared at the field,        what will happen in 120 minutes.
    Our coach, Tony Severino, came out of his office at 6 o’clock He told the team how       this game was for the season, between two of the state’s top teams _ my school and our opposing team, Liberty High School. His words gave the team impulse (冲动）it needed to       .
    At 7:10 pm, warm - ups finished, we went over the game        and discussed what we needed to do for the next three hours. The sound of the national anthem (国歌)         that we were only minutes from the action. Our coach usually made a final         . But tonight was different. On this clear night he         looked around the room at all the players and shouted, “Let’s go and get them” Even         the “get” came out of his mouth, we were already         our way out of the door.
    Outside, a few young fens reached to touch our hands, eager to be a         of our school’s winning tradition. When I smiled and         my hand, the young feces lit up as if they had just met Superman.
    Seconds later, the team ran onto the           ，moving as a mass of blue, in front of a packed stadium. We enjoyed a noisy         from fens and the fight song played by our school band. Breathing in the         of one of the biggest game of the year, I felt we were sure to win. I told myself, “This was what it was all about” and         that it was for moments like this that I loved high school football.

    When I was 8, a gentleman came to my orphanage（孤儿院）and taught us how to do woodworking projects.
    I remember my first project—a small table. I was so      of it that I looked upon it as if I had created a(an)     . It was absolutely beautiful and it had taken me six weeks to      it. I could hardly wait to give it to Mother Winters as a     . She was the head mistress of our orphanage, who was always      with us.
    As the tables were not dry from the clear coating, the man told us to wait a few days before taking them to our dormitories. But I was just so      and happy that I couldn’t wait. I dashed out like a     , carrying my table, smiling from ear to ear.
    When I reached the dormitory I placed the little table beside my bed. I was      it when Mother Winters entered. She walked over to the table. Running her hand      it, she noticed that it was still wet.
    “Were you      to bring this home?” she asked.
    “No, ma’am,” I      with my head down.
    She ordered me to throw the table out and so I did. After she left, I immediately opened the door to get it back. There was      stuck all over. I brushed and cried, but it would not come off.
    I hid the table in my closet and never      it. A year later while cleaning up, I gave the table to Mother Henderson, my houseparent（宿管员）, thinking that she would      it away.
    Thirty years later at a reunion, I      that Mother Henderson was living nearby, so I drove up to see her. We talked cheerfully for long. As I was about to leave, she asked me to come down to her      to get something important. I followed her      into a dark corner. She picked something up.      she turned around, I could see that she was holding a little table.
    Mother Henderson kept the little table that I had given up for lost so long ago.
    Today, I look at that table with bittersweet memories but full of      to Mother Henderson, who kept it for a young orphan who tried very hard to     .
