    题目列表(包括答案和解析)

    A small ,white envelope stuck among the branches of our Christmas tree and it has been there for the past ten years or so.
    It all began because my husband Justin hated Christmas—oh, not the true meaning of Christmas.Overspending was one thing, but compared to the difficult experience of choosing gifts—running around at the last minute to get a tie for Uncle Harry and a pair of gloves for Grandma…,spending money is nothing. I felt too tired to think of any special gifts.
    Knowing Justin felt the same way, I decided one year not to buy the usual shirts, sweaters, ties and so on. I reached for something special just for Justin. The inspiration came in an unusual way.
    Our son Kevin, who was 12 that year, was wrestling （摔跤）at the junior level at the school he attended; and shortly before Christmas, there was a match against a team sponsored (赞助) by an inner-city church.These youngsters, dressed in such worn-out shoes that shoe strings seemed to be the only thing holding them together, while our boys were in their blue and gold uniforms and new wrestling shoes.
    As the match began, I was shocked to see that the other team were wrestling without wearing helmets (头盔) to protect their ears. Well, our boys ended up defeating them. We took every weight class.
    Justin, seated beside me, shook his head sadly, “I wish just one of them could have won,” he said. “They have a lot potential (潜力) , but losing like this could take the heart out of them.” Justin loved kids—all kids, and he knew them, having coached little league football and baseball. That’s when the idea for his present came. That afternoon, I went to a local sporting goods store and bought different kinds of wrestling helmets and shoes. I sent them to inner-city church without leaving my name.
    On Christmas Eve, I placed the envelope on the tree, the note inside telling Justin what I had done and that was his gift from me. His smile was the brightest thing about Christmas that year and since then the envelope has become the highlight of our Christmas.

    I’m 14, a year younger than most of my classmates.
    A week ago one of my classmates, Nitin, asked me for help with math homework. We ended up talking about computers and file-sharing（共享文件）. As we talked I found that he was more experienced and could teach me about file-sharing and networking. We went to his room and watched a movie about robots that he’d downloaded. The math homework was forgotten.
    The next day he came again for homework help “What do you do on weekends?” he asked. The truth is, when I have work to do, I do it. I have no special time to kill with friends. I was embarrassed about this. I expected him to think I was boring and said, “Get a life!” He said, “OK. You’re having trouble getting along with people I can show you. I’m old than you.”
    Later, he checked my computer. He even connected me to an Internet chess server（服务器）.He was becoming like a big brother.
    But when I thought about it, I didn’t really want Nitin’s help” His big-brother idea began to bore me.
    “I’ll get you some cool computer programs（程序）”.
    “I’ll teach you how to talk to girls.”
    He meant what he was saying, but I don’t know why it didn’t make me feel good. Since then he’s hardly talked to me; we seem to have forgotten each other. I don’t think he can “teach” me much, and I don’t think much of him. But I could be wrong·
    【小题1】What did Mitin help me do?
    A．He helped me with my homework.
    B．He helped me with math problems.
    C．He taught me about file-sharing and networking.
    D．He introduced some fiends to me.
    【小题2】What does the underlined word “kill” in Paragraph 3 mean?
    A．杀死B．浪费C．消磨（时间）D．打猎
    【小题3】Which is NOT the reason why the writer doesn’t want Nitin’s help?
    A．He has no special time to kill with friends.
    B．He forgot his homework because of playing with him.
    C．He thinks his ideas are not useful to him.
    D．He has another big brother.
    【小题4】Can you use a word to describe the writer?
    A．Unfriendly.B．Boring.C．Independent.（独立的）D．Lazy.
    【小题5】Choose a title for this passage.
    A．I Don’t Want a Big Brother!
