    READING COMPREHENSION

    　　Crazy is our new normal．With two teenage boys and three little boys, our family is restless－to the baseball field, track field(田径场)and piano lessons．Even though we've limited each boy's activities and try our best to defend our family time, it seems that we're in a constant state of flight．

    　　“Embrace it．Roll with it,”my husband, Lonny, says,“It's going to be like this for a while．”

    　　He is right．It's likely that life will continue to go forward before it slows down．But I remembered the still, quiet days that our family used to enjoy．I missed long walks through the park when we held the boys' little hands．I longed for(渴望)lazy Saturday afternoons under the tree in our backyard．I wanted to slip back a few years, when busyness was the exception and not the rule．

    　　One night, after a particularly full day and evening games, our family gathered on the porch(门廊)for ice cream．Two parents, two teens, and three small boys piled on one old swing and a couple of rocking chairs．We were together, in one place, for a small slice of time．

    　　The moon was full．The Mississippi River, flowing past our home, was smooth as glass．I wrapped my own arms around the son who sat on my lap and breathed deeply to inhale his little-boy scent(气味)－dirt and sweat．My heart was still and content(满足的)．

    　　I realized that while crazy is our new normal happiness is as usual．They may look different from before, but they are still there－even if they're in the form of a single moment on the porch．Maybe I just need the eyes to see．

    My basketball coach at Princeton used to say, "On the court, you can tell who is selfish(自私的)."

      　When my sister Michelle brought Barack Obama home to meet the family, she said to me, "I want you to take him out to play, to see what type of man he is when he’s not around me." So I invited Barack to play basketball with a few friends of mine.

       　I was very nervous although I had already met Barack a few times. I was thinking this guy seemed like a good guy. We played a hard five-on-five. He was thin but not weak. He played extremely left-handed. He dealt with everything perfectly. He wasn’t the best guy out there or the worst guy. I liked the fact that he was confident but wasn’t proud. Barack was very team-oriented (有团队精神的), very unselfish. He played as if he was one of us —he wasn’t trying to be president of Harvard Law Review. But the best part about it was that when we were on the same team, he did not pass me the ball each time. He wasn’t trying to suck up to my sister through me. I was glad to give my sister the good news, "Your boy is straight."

       　He isn’t selfish, which is the greatest praise you can give both a player and a leader. America has got a guy who is running a government in an efficient (有效率的) manner. That’s the same guy I got to know playing basketball when he was visiting my family.

    1. Why does the author begin the passage with his coach’s words?

    　A. He wants to remember and thank his coach.

    　B. He wants to show that he is a basketball player.

    　C. He wants to tell his sister about the words.

    　D. He wants to use the words to test a person.

    2.Why did Michelle ask the author to take Barack to play basketball?

    　A. To see whether he was confident.

    　B. To see whether he was good at sports.

    　C. To see whether he was selfish or not.

    　D. To see whether he could get along with others.

    3.During the basketball game, Barack ______.

    　A. played best all the time        B. was strong enough to play

    　C. was not confident             D. wanted to be the team leader

    4. The underlined phrase in the third paragraph can be replaced by "______".

    　A. please （使满意）   B. know about       C. help       D. look for

    　　Friendships are some of the most important relationships that we will ever have in our lives．But how to build a solid friendship? Here are five tips for you．

    　　Tip 1．________

    　　True friendships can only be built in honesty．This is more than just telling the truth．Being real and open about who you are and your thoughts and feelings are a part of building a solid friendship．If your “friends” don't even really know you, who are they really friends with?

    　　Tip 2．Shared Experiences

    　　As you build your friendship, you will share many experiences together．Some of these may be great adventures or hard times that the two of you go through together．These shared experiences are things that you will laugh about, talk about, and cry about no matter how much time passes．

    　　Tip 3．Sacrificial(牺牲精神的)love

    　　Love is the basis(基础)of all solid relationships．I am not referring to the emotion(情感)of love, but to the action of love．Love is what will cause a friend to get out of bed in the middle of the night to help another．Love is what will put aside someone's own wants to make sure that their friend is alright．

    　　Tip 4．Understanding

    　　When a friendship is solid, it will be based on each other's understanding．You may not agree with everything that a friend says or does, but you will be able to put yourself into his or her shoes to begin to understand．Offering understanding to a friend is very important, as it allows them to feel that they have someone in their corner that they can talk to and who will offer advice and suggestions, without having to worry that if they don't always follow it, the friendship will be lost．

    　　Tip 5．Acceptance

    　　A solid friendship is one in which two people accept one another, faults and all, for just who they are．There is no having to build up false excuses, or hide away the “dark secrets” from one another．We accept each other as whole, complete, and totally unique people．
