Now all my brothers are looking for me.They’ve all been caught, but not me.They’ll never trick me into coming out to catch me.Wait, is that Dad I hear calling my name? Oh no, now I hear someone going to call Grandpa to help look for me.I’m not coming out now because I’m in really big trouble.

  What to do? If I come out and say I heard them calling me, I’ll be in big trouble.Think, think! How do I get out of trouble? I know what to do! I’ll tell them I fell asleep while waiting.Is that Grandpa’s voice? Heh heh heh! Now’s my chance.I’ll crawl out slowly and rub my eyes.Now that I see Grandpa go towards me quickly, I say.“I feel asleep.”

  “Oh! You had us all worried!” says Grandpa.“You little devil, I’m just glad you’re all right, but next time try not to fall asleep and scare us like that, okay?” says Dad.Whew! I pulled it off(成功).Now to keep my mouth shut.And I did, for over 42 years.Once in a while, a kid pulls the wool over people’s eyes.So that’s one of my little secrets I’ve never revealed before.Don’t tell anyone now!

  Last year in my high school child-development class, each student had to take the“Think-It-Over”baby home for a night to get a taste of parenthood.

  It was a Friday night when my turn came to take the 10-pound plastic doll home.The doll really did look like a live baby from a distance.It even had a pleasant baby powdder smell.I took the baby home and named him Tyler.

  My frieads and I went out for supper that night.As it was rather cold, I decided to wrap Tyler in a blanket and carry him in that way.When I walked into the restaurant, I noticed some very strange looks and quite a few raised eyebrows.My friends and I decided to make a game out of the whole situation.I stood in the Gorner pretending to rock Tyler to while my friends kept looking into the blanket and said,“Oh, how lovely.”I could not but laugh.And although it was funny to my friends and nme, some of the people did think it was so funy that I had a baby.I overheard one couple say,“Why would she she g a baby here?”These people were giving me rude looks and forming judgments about because they thought I was a teenage mom.Others just smiled at me pathetically(同情地)and felt sorry for me because I was only a child with a chiId.ing our meal, my friends and I received strange looks from the others in the restaurant.S so glad to finally go home.

  I learned a lot through my experience with the“Think-It-Over”baby.The doll ly strengthened my thinking I was not ready to be a parent, but it also made me e aware of the larger picture.It opened my eyes to the judgments people make about rs.People do not realize that some things are not the way they seem.I was only ying it around for a class project.The people in the restaurant were so quick to judge because they thought I was a teenage mom.I sometimes catch myself judging people I not know, just because of the first impression they give.In reality, I have no idea about real stories.We should all be slower to judge others, and realize that some things are as they seem.

  Grandpa Nybakken loved life-especially when he could play a trick on somebody.At those times, his large Norwegian frame shook with laughter while he pretended innocent surprise, exclaiming, “Oh, forevermore!” But on a cold Saturday in downtown Chicago, Grandpa felt that God played a trick on him, and grandpa wasn’t laughing.

  Grandpa worked as a carpenter.On this particular day, he was building some boxes for the clothes his church was sending to an orphanage abroad.On his way home, he reached into his shirt pocket to find his glasses, but they were gone.He remembered putting them there that morning, so he drove back to the church.His search proved fruitless.

  Suddenly, he realized what had happened.The glasses had slipped out of his pocket unnoticed and fallen into one of the boxes, which he had nailed shut.His brand new glasses were heading for China!

  The Great Depression was at its height, and Grandpa had six children.He had spent twenty dollars for those glasses that very morning.

  “It’s not fair,” he told God as he drove home in frustration.“I’ve been very faithful in giving of my time and money to your work, and now this.”

  Several months later, the director of the orphanage was on vacation in the United States.He wanted to visit all the churches that supported him, so he came to speak on Sunday night at my grandfather’s small church in Chicago.Grandpa and his family sat in their usual seats among the small congregation(教堂会众)

  “But most of all,” he said, “I must thank you for the glasses you sent last year.”

  “Even if I had the money, there was simply no way of replacing those glasses.Along with not being able to see well, I experienced headaches every day, so my co-workers and I were much in prayer about this.Then your boxes arrived.When my staff removed the covers, they found a pair of glasses lying on the top.” After a long pause, he continued, “Folks, when I tried on the glasses, it was as though they had been custom-made just for me! I want to thank you for being a part of that!”

  The people listened, happy for the amazing glasses.But the director surely must have confused their church with another, they thought, there were no glasses on their list of items to be sent overseas.

  But sitting quietly in the back, with tears streaming down his face, an ordinary carpenter realized the Master Carpenter had used him in an extraordinary way.

阅读理解

  Remember those highly charged first days? They were full of real-life tests where there was always something new to learn, and not always from a book.One of my first lessons occurred on my first day of kindergarten, when I got on the wrong bus-as my older sister still likes to remind me.

  Life’s minor embarrassments do happen, and I know I can’t protect my own children from them.I just try to teach them to laugh at theirs like I do at mine.

  My daughter Erin started on the wrong foot in the 1st grade, at a new school where she knew no one.All the other 1st graders couldn’t resist opening and closing, closing and opening their new desks.Wouldn't you know Erin would neither open nor close? She came to find out she was sitting on the wrong side!

  Even getting around in a new school can be a challenge.Erin's older sister, Molly, almost missed her first lunch in junior high.The school secretary came to her rescue, arming her with the knowledge that while the gym and flex space were next door to each other, lunch was served only in the latter.

  The first day sometimes has pitfalls for Mom and Dad, too.Once, I managed to stockpile(储备)Molly and Erin's school supplies as they went on sale the previous year.I thought everything was ready for the first day-oh, yeah! My victory dance was short-lived, however.After day one my ladies rushed off the bus, both worried and confused, saying “Mom, we need wide-rule not college-rule paper, and three 2-inch notebooks instead of two 3-inch ones! And for standardized testing, standardized No.2 pencils only, please.”

  Perhaps my favorite first-day memory happened the first time my two daughters went to full-day public school together, when I was understandably emotional.Erin noticed my red eyes and white smile.“You are happy and sad, huh, Mommy?” Such a sensitive girl! She added, “Just like the time when you were crying and laughing after the car stopped running on the ice and we were OK.” Well, at least I could laugh!

(1)

What happened to Molly the first day she went to junior high school?

[  ]

A.

She couldn't find her new classroom.

B.

She didn't know how to use her new desk.

C.

She couldn’t find the place to have lunch.

D.

She didn’t get along with her classmates.

(2)

What does the underlined word “pitfalls” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?

[  ]

A.

Unexpected problems.

B.

Great pleasures.

C.

Unnecessary worries.

D.

Painful experiences.

(3)

We can learn from the last paragraph that Erin _________.

[  ]

A.

had mixed feelings when leaving her home

B.

didn't want to go to full-day public school

C.

noticed her mother was sick that day

D.

understood how her mother felt then

(4)

What is the subject of the passage?

[  ]

A.

The relationship between Morn and child.

B.

The first day of a new school year.

C.

How to keep kids from making mistakes.

D.

Sweet memories at school.

  movie magic can defy reality, but actors are inescapably human.They grow and change, and don't necessarily change for the better.

  Harry Potter actors, who are now saying their final goodbyes to their roles, have all become fully-fledged(成熟的)grown-ups, worlds apart from the little kids who began the Hogwarts' adventures in 2001.

  While many fans feel sad that the magical franchise(特权)is coming to an end, some feel even sadder to see how much the actors have changed over the years.

  "Daniel Radcliffe(who plays Harry Potter)went from being a really cute kid to a thin, pale-looking guy," said Filipino Internet User Lealuvy."I kind of wish he stayed a kid forever.''

  Radcliffe himself doesn't seem to be bothered by his change of appearance.In an interview with GQ magazine last week, he teased himself:"If people find me sexy or cool, it's because they like short, little, nerdy guys.And we do have our niche(合适的职业)."

  Meanwhile, actors growing up to be handsome have their headaches.

  Harry Melling, who played Potter's cousin Dudley Dursley, told The Telegraph that he was almost recast for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows when producers discovered he' d lost a lot of weight he had as a kid.He was too thin for the part.

  "They(the producers)did this double take, 'Oh my God, we are going to have to do something', and I felt guilty," said Meiling.

  Aside from changes in looks, the gradual personality change of child stars is another big concern of audience and producers.

  Miley Cyrus began her career at 13 in Disney's hit TV series Hannah Montana.

  When Cyrus decided to show her adult personality by releasing "sexy" photos, people began to get uneasy about her.Reports said that furious Disney bosses were considering replacing Cyrus with a more clean-cut teen star.

  Cyrus finally kept her role after public apologies.But some parents banned their children watching the show.

  "My daughter has been banned from watching the show," supermodel Cindy Crawford told Showbiz Spy."I really don't think Miley Cyrus is much of a role model for my kid."

(1)

The underlined word "defy" in Paragraph 1 means "________".

[  ]

challenge

B.

control

C.

clarify

D.

abandon

(2)

Which one is TRUE according to the passage?

[  ]

Actors always grow and change for the better.

B.

Daniel Radcliffe can't escape from being a kid.

C.

Some fans feel sad about the ending of the film series and the actors' changes.

D.

Harry Melling was too thin to recast for the film.

(3)

Radcliffe doesn't feel bothered by his change of appearance because ________.

[  ]

A.

people think him sexy or cool

B.

people like short, little, nerdy guys

C.

he thinks he grows up to be handsome

D.

some people do think such a boy as him is sexy

(4)

What do audience and producers concern about?

[  ]

A.

The actors' changes in appearances and gradual personality.

B.

The actors' weight.

C.

Whether the producers did the double take.

D.

Whether the actors are sexy or clean-cut.

(5)

We can infer that ________ from the story of Miley Cyrus.

Miley Cyrus decided to change her sexy adult personality later on

B.

Disney bosses prefer pure teen stars to sexy adults in their movies

C.

parents prevented their children from watching her show
