    I was 9 years old when I found out my father was ill. It was 1994, but I can remember my mother's words as if it were yesterday: “Kerrel, I don't want you to take food from your father, because he has AIDS. Be very careful when you are around him.”

    AIDS wasn't something we talked about in my country when I was growing up. From then on, I knew that this would be a family secret. My parents were not together anymore, and my dad lived alone. For a while, he could take care of himself. But when I was 12, his condition worsened. My father's other children lived far away, so it fell to me to look after him.

    We couldn't afford all the necessary medication for him, and because Dad was unable to work, I had no money for school supplies and often couldn't even buy food for dinner. I would sit in class feeling completely lost, the teacher's words muffled as I tried to figure out how I was going to manage.

    I did not share my burden (負(fù)擔(dān)) with anyone. I had seen how people reacted to AIDS. Kids laughed at classmates who had parents with the disease. And even adults could be cruel. When my father was moved to the hospital, the nurses would leave his food on the bedside table even though he was too weak to feed himself.

    I had known that he was going to die, but after so many years of keeping his condition a secret, I was completely unprepared when he reached his final days. Sad and hopeless, I called a woman at the nonprofit National AIDS Support. That day, she kept me on the phone for hours. I was so lucky to find someone who cared. she saved my life.

I was 15 when my father died. He took his secret away with him, having never spoken about AIDS to anyone, even me. He didn't want to call attention to AIDS. I do.

60. What does Kerrel tell us about her father?

    A. He had stayed in the hospital since he fell ill.

    B. He depended on the nurses in his final days.

    C. He worked hard to pay for his medication.

    D. He told no one about his disease.

61. What can we learn from the underlined sentence?

A. Kerrel couldn't understand her teacher.          

B. Kerrel had special difficulty in hearing.

    C. Kerrel was too troubled to focus on the lesson.

    D. Kerrel was too tired to hear her teacher's words.

62. Why did Kerrel keep her father's disease a secret?

    A. She was afraid of being looked down upon.             B. She thought it was shameful to have AIDS.

    C. She found no one willing to listen to her.          D. She wanted to obey her mother.

63. Why did Kerrel write the passage?

    A. To tell people about the sufferings of her father.

    B. To show how little people knew about AIDS.

C. To draw people's attention to AIDS.              

D. To remember her father.

How often one hears children wishing they were grown-ups and old people wishing they were young again. Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without wasting his time in useless regrets.
Childhood is a time when there are few responsibilities to make life difficult. If a child has good parents, he is fed, looked after and loved, whatever he may do. It is impossible that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return. In addition, life is always presenting new things to the child — things that have lost their interest for older people because they are too well-known. But a child has his parents. He is not so free to do what he wishes to do; he is continually being told not to do things or being punished for what he has done wrong.
When the young man starts to earn his own living, he can no longer expect others to pay for his food, his clothes, and his room, but has to work if he wants to live comfortably. If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry. And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents, he may go to prison. If, however, he works hard, keeps out of trouble and has good health, he can have the great happiness of building up for himself his own position in society.
【小題1】 According to the second paragraph, the writer thinks that __________.

A.if much is given to a child, he must do something in return
B.a(chǎn) child is always loved whatever he does
C.life for a child is comparatively easy
D.only children are interested in life
【小題2】 After a child grows up, he __________.
A.will have little time playing
B.has to be successful in finding a job
C.can still ask for help in time of trouble
D.should be able to take care of himself
【小題3】 Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?
A.Life is less interesting for old people.
B.People are often satisfied with their life.
C.Adults are free to do what they want to do.
D.Adults should no longer rely on others.
【小題4】The underlined word "responsibilities" in the second paragraph means __________.
A.jobsB.dutiesC.suggestionsD.desires
【小題5】 The main idea of the passage is __________.
A.life is not enjoyable since each age has some pains
B.young men can have the greatest happiness if they work hard
C.childhood is the most enjoyable time in one's life
D.one is the happiest if he can make good use of each age in his life
