阅读理解,阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。

  About this time every year, I get very nostalgic(怀旧的).Walking through my neighborhood on a fall afternoon reminds me of a time not too long ago when sounds of children filled the air, children playing games on a hill, and throwing leaves around in the street below.I was one of those children, carefree and happy.I live on a street that is only one block long.I have lived on the same street for sixteen years.I love my street.One side has six houses on it, and the other has only two houses, with a small hill in the middle and a huge cottonwood tree on one end.When I think of home, I think of my street.Only I see it as it was before.Unfortunately things change.One day, not long ago, I looked around and saw how different everything has become.Life on my street will never be the same because neighbors are quickly grown old, friends are growing up and leaving, and the city is planning to destroy my precious hill and sell the property to contractors.

  It is hard for me to accept that many of my wonderful neighbors are growing old and won't be around much longer.I have fond memories of the couple across the street, who sat together on their porch swing almost every evening, the widow next door who yelled at my brother and me for being too loud, and the crazy old man in a black suit who drove an old car.In contrast to those people, the people I see today are very old neighbors who have seen better days.The man in the black suit says he wants to die, and another neighbor just sold his house and moved into a nursing home.The lady who used to yell at us is too tired to bother any more, and the couple across the street rarely go out to their front porch these days.It is difficult to watch these precious people as they near the end of their lives because at once I thought they would live forever.

  The “comings and goings” of the younger generation of my street are now mostly “goings” as friends and peers move on.Once upon a time, my life and the lives of my peers revolved around home.The boundary of our world was the gutter at the end of the street.We got pleasure from playing night games or from a breathtaking ride on a tricycle.Things are different now, as my friends become adults and move on.Children who rode tricycles now drive cars.The kids who once played with me now have new interests and values as they go their separate ways.Some have gone away to college like me, a few got married, two went into the army, and one went to prison.Watching all these people grow up and go away makes me long for the good old days.

  Perhaps the biggest change on my street is the fact that the city is going to turn my precious hill into several lots for now homes.For sixteen years, the view out of my kitchen window has been a view of that hill.The hill was a fundamental part of my childhood life; it was the hub of social activity for the children of my street.We spent hours there building forts, sledding, and playing tag.The view out of my kitchen window now is very different; it is one of tractors and dump trucks tearing up the hill.When the hill goes, the neighborhood will not be the same.It is a piece of my childhood.It is a visual reminder of being a kid.Without the hill, my street will be just another pea in the pod.

  There was a time when my street was my world, and I thought my world would never change.But something happened.People grow up, and people grow old.Places changes, and with the change comes the heartache of knowing I can never go back to the times I loved.In a year or so, I will be gone just like many of my neighbors.I will always look back to my years as a child, but the place I remember will not be the silent street whose peace is interrupted by the sounds of construction.It will be the happy, noisy, somewhat strange, but wonderful street I knew as a child.

(1)

The writer calls up the memory of the street ________.

[  ]

A.

every year when autumn comes

B.

in the afternoon every day

C.

every time he walks along his street

D.

now that he is an old man

The writer finds it hard to accept the fact that ________.

[  ]

A.

many of his good neighbors are growing old

B.

the lady next door who used to yell at him and his brother is now a widow

C.

the life of his neighbors has become very boring

D.

the man in his black suit even wanted to end his own life

(3)

The writer thinks of the past all the more when he sees those who had grown up with him ________.

[  ]

A.

continue to consider home to be the center of their lives

B.

leave the neighborhood they grew up in

C.

still enjoy playing card games in the evenings

D.

develop new interests and have new dreams

(4)

The biggest change on the writer's street is ________.

[  ]

A.

removing the hill to make way for residential development

B.

the building of new homes behind his kitchen window

C.

the fact that there are much fewer people around than in the past

D.

the change in his childhood friends' attitude towards their neighborhood

(5)

What does the writer mean by saying “my street will be another pea in the pod”?

[  ]

A.

his street will be very noisy and dirty

B.

his street will soon be crowded with people

C.

his street will have some new attractions

D.

As I write this, I have half an eye on an old James Bond film that is showing on my computer. But this is a story about how I stopped watching TV and began reading again for pleasure, after ten years in which I hardly turned a page.

I suppose I was an enthusiastic reader of "literature" between the ages of nine and fourteen. I had enough time to be White Fang, Robinson Crusoe, and Bilbo Baggins and Jeeves. Of course there was room in the schoolboy's imagination for some real historical figures: Scott of the Antarctic, all of the Vikings, and Benjamin Franklin were good friends of mine.

Then, in adolescence, I began a long search for strange and radical (激进的) ideas. I wanted to challenge my elders and betters, and shock my fellow students with amazing points of view. Of course, the only place to look was in books. I hunted out the longest titles and the authors with the funniest names; I searched the library for completely unread books. Then I found one which became my bible for the whole of 1982, it had a title composed of eleven long words and an author whose name I didn't know how to pronounce. It was really thick and looked dead serious. Even better, it put forward a whole world-view that would take days to explain. Perfect. I took it out of the library three times, proud to see the date-stamps lined up on the empty library insert.

Later, I went to university. Expecting to spend long evenings in learned discussion with clever people, I started reading philosophy. For some reason I never found the deep-thinking intellectuals I hoped to meet. Anyway, I was ready to impress with my profound (深奥的) knowledge of post-structuralism, existentialism and situationism. These things are usually explained in rather short books, but they take a long time to get through. They were the end of my youthful reading.

Working life was hard to get used to after so much theory. It was the end of books for me. There didn't seem to be much in books that would actually get things done. To do things you had to answer the telephone and work a computer. You had to travel about and speak to people who weren't at all interested in philosophy. I didn't stop reading, you can't avoid that. I read all day. But no books came my way, only manuals (操作手册) and contracts and documents. Maybe most people satisfy their need for stories and ideas with TV and, to tell the truth, it was all I needed for ten years. In those days I only had a book "on the go" for the duration of aeroplane flights. At first I would come home and watch TV over dinner. Then, I moved the TV so I could watch it from bed. I even got a switch so I could turn it off without getting out of bed. Then, one fateful day, my TV broke and my landlady took it away.

My new TV is an extra circuit board (电路板) inside my computer. It's on a desk in front of a working chair and I can't see it from the bed. I still use it for the weather forecasts and it's nice to have it on while I'm typing this… but what to do last thing at night? Well, have another go with books.

Now, I just like books. I have a pile of nice ones by my bed and I'm reading about six at the same time. I don't want to be any of the characters. I don't care if a thousand people have already read them. I don't have to search through libraries. There are books everywhere and all of them have something to read in them. I have the strange feeling that they've been there all along, waiting for me to pick them up.

1.The writer enjoyed reading “literature” between the ages of nine and fourteen because ________.

A.he thought it was important for a schoolboy to do so

B.he was still too young to understand other books

C.he believed all the real historical figures were his friends

D.he could imagine himself being the characters in the books

2.“Existentialism” (in paragraph 4) is probably ________.

A.a library intended for teenagers            B.a kind of books on traditions

C.a philosophy theory                     D.a kind of reading skill

3.The main reason the writer stopped reading books was that ________.

A.he found watching TV was more interesting

B.he became too busy to read any books

C.he found books were of little use to his work

D.he had to read a lot of manuals, contracts and documents

4.Now the writer starts to read books again ________.

A.to find back his youth in books             B.for the pure pleasure of reading

C.so as to help kill his spare time             D.for only business purposes

5.Which of the following is the best title of the passage?

A.The Years with Books                     B.Books and TV Programs

C.Don’t Judge a Book by Its Cover           D.Reading Makes One Excellent
