The night before the   29 , we loaded up the truck with toys and a little bike that was too   30  for him. In the yard he   31 the bike for the last time and then happily put it onto the truck.

We put a price of $10 on it, but it didn’t sell. So, after the sale was  35 , my friend put it on the sidewalk, with a sign that   36 “FREE BIKE”. Within five minutes her doorbell rang. A little boy was   37_ there. In poor English he asked whether the bike was   38  free. She said yes and that he could have it for   39 . He smiled, got on the bike and rode away.
Later that evening when I told my son how much money he had made at the sale, he was very   40 , shouting happily. He asked about a few of his things, wondering   41  they had been sold. When he asked about the bike, I told him about the little boy and that made him   42 . He was much happier than when I told him how much he had   43 . He was so happy to   44 that someone else would make good  45  of that little bike!

In a national spelling contest in America,an 11-year-old girl was asked to spell a certain word. But with her  36 voice the judges were not sure whether she spelled the word with the letter A or E.

It was when I was attending high school that I first read Asimov’s stories. At the time, a few science fiction magazines began to introduce this author, and to translate a few pieces from his “Robot Series”. Of Asimov’s works, the one that left the deepest impression on me was Pebble in the Sky. This novel directly influenced my early science fiction writing. Asimov was one of the leading writers of western science fiction’s Golden Age, so although his writing may not have a direct influence on writers of today, his underlying (潛在的) influence on many levels is undeniable — the famous Three Laws of Robotics, and many classic writing techniques, for example. Asimov’s novels are marked by a fully integrated (完整的) logical system, and his stories are a pleasure to read. This is the reason his novels still attract readers today. Naturally, western science fiction has few people these days who follow Asimov’s creative methods. But still the majority of Chinese science fiction readers would rather read the classic works of Asimov. Compared with the “Robot Series”, Asimov’s “Foundation Series” is a little less well-known in China. In fact, the “Foundation Series” creates an entire world, even grander than that of the “Robot Series”; this science fiction had a direct influence on later western science fiction, the most famous example being Star Wars.
小題1:We learn from the passage that the writer is probably a _________.
A.science fiction writerB.science fiction publisher
C.high school studentD.science fiction fan
小題2:The purpose of the passage is to _________.
A.compare Asimov with other science fiction writers
B.a(chǎn)dvise people to read Asimov’s stories
C.give some comments on Asimov’s influence
D.explain why Asimov is popular in China
小題3:According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?
A.Asimov is criticized by today’s science fiction writers.
B.Asimov still has many readers in China.
C.Asimov wrote Star Wars in his later life.
D.Asimov’s writing techniques are still widely used.
小題4:In the writer’s opinion, Asimov’s “Foundation Series” _________.
A.was not as successful as his “Robot Series”
B.is better known to readers than his “Robot Series”
C.was more logically organized than his “Robot Series”
D.was written better than his “Robot Series” in some ways

“Mum, what does it mean when someone tells you that they have a skeleton (骨骼) in the closet (衣櫥)?”Jessica asked. “A skeleton in the closet?” her mother paused thoughtfully, “Well, it’s something that you would rather not have anyone else know about. For example, if in the past, someone in Dad’s family had been arrested for stealing a horse, it would be ‘a(chǎn) skeleton in his family’s closet’. He really wouldn’t want any neighbor to know about it.”
“Why pick on my family?” Jessica’s father said with anger. “Your family history isn’t so good, you know. Wasn’t you great – great grandfather a prisoner who was transported to Australia for his crimes?”“Yes, but people these days say that you are not a real Australian unless your ancestors arrived as prisoners.”“Gosh, sorry I asked. I think I understand now,” Jessica cut in before things grew worse.
After dinner, the house was very quiet. Jessica’s parents were still quite angry with each other. Her mother was ironing clothes and every now and then she glared at her husband, who hid behind his newspaper pretending to read. When she finished, she gathered the freshly pressed clothes in her arms and walked to Jessica’s closet. Just as she opened the door and reached in to hang a skirt, a bony arm stuck out from the dark depths and a bundle of white bones fell to the floor. Jessica’s mother sank into a faint (暈倒), waking only when Jessica put a cold, wet cloth on her forehead. She looked up to see the worried faces of her husband and daughter.
“What happened? Where am I?” she asked. “You just destroyed the school’s skeleton, Mum,” explained Jessica. “I brought it home to help me with my health project. I meant to tell you, but it seemed that as soon as I mentioned skeletons and closets, it caused a problem between you and Dad.” Jessica looked in amazement as her parents began to laugh madly. “They’re both crazy,” she thought.
小題1:According to Jessica’s mother, “a skeleton in the closet” means         .
A.a(chǎn) family honorB.a(chǎn) family secret
C.a(chǎn) family storyD.a(chǎn) family treasure
小題2:What can we learn about some Australian’s ancestors from Paragraph 2?______.
A.They were brought to Australia as prisoners.
B.They were the earliest people living in Australia.
C.They were involved in some crimes in Australia.
D.They were not regarded as criminals in their days.
小題3:Jessica’s mother fell down into a faint because she was          .
A.knockedB.frightenedC.injuredD.surprised
小題4:Why did Jessica bring a skeleton home? _________.
A.She was curious about it.B.She planned to keep it for fun.
C.She needed it for her school task.D.She intended to scare her parents.
小題5:Jessica’s parents laughed madly at the end of the story probably because        .
A.they were crazy
B.they were overexcited
C.they realized their misunderstanding
D.they both thought they had won the quarrel

As a young girl growing up in the 1930s, I always wanted to fly a plane, but back then it was almost unheard of for a woman to do that. I got a taste of that dream in 2001, when my husband arranged for me to ride in a hot air balloon for my birthday. But the experience turned out to be very dull. Around that time, I told my husband that I wanted to skydive. So when our retirement community announced that they were having an essay competition and the topic was an experience of a lifetime that you wanted to have, I decided to write about my dream.
In the essay, I wrote about my desire to skydive, stating George Brush Sr. did it at age 80. Why not me? I was just 84 and in pretty good health. A year went by and I heard nothing. But then at a community party in late April 2009, they announced that I was one of the winners. I just couldn’t believe it. Inspired by this, I decided to realize my dream, even though some of my family members and my doctor were against it.
On June 11, 2009, nearly 40 of my family and friends gathered in the area close to where I would land while I headed up in the airplane. My instructor, Jay, guided me through the experience. The plane was the noisiest one I had ever been in, but I wasn’t frightened—I was really just looking forward to the experience. When we reached 13,000 feet, Jay instructed me to throw myself out of the plane. When we first hit the air, the wind was so strong that I could hardly breathe. For a second I thought, “What have I gotten myself into?” But then everything got calmer. We were in a free fall for about a minute before Jay opened the parachute(降落傘), then we just floated downward for about five minutes. Being up in the clouds and looking at the view below was unlike anything I have ever felt—much better than the hot air balloon. I was just enjoying it.
Skydiving was really one of the greatest experiences of my life. I hope other people will look at me and realize that you don’t stop living just because you are 84 years old. If there’s something you want to experience, look into it. If it’s something that is possible, make it happen.
小題1:What happened to the author in 2001?
A. She flew an airplane.
B. She entered a competition.
C. She went on a hot air balloon ride.
小題2:The author mentioned George Bush Sr. in her essay to       .
A.make her argument persuasive
B.show her admiration for him
C.compare their health condition
D.build up her own reputation
小題3: How did the author feel immediately after she jumped out of the plane?
A.Excited.B.Regretful.C.Nervous.D.Scared.
小題4:What did the author enjoy most when she was skydiving?
A.The beautiful clouds.B.The wonderful view.
C.The company of Jay.D.The one-minute free fall.
小題5:What is the best title of the passage?
A.Impossible is nothing. B.A dream made come true.
C.An unforgettable skydiving.D.I Went Skydiving at 84!
