I had the meanest mother in the world. other kids ate candy, I had to have cereal(谷物食品),eggs or toast.While others had cakes and French fries,I had to eat a sandwich.But at least,I wasn’t in my suffering.My sisters and two brothers had the same mean mother as I did.

My mother knowing where we were at all times and who our friends were .She insisted if we said we’d be gone an hour, then we be gone one hour or —not one hour and one minute.She made us wear the clothes made by herself,just to money.Now you can see how she was.

The is yet to come.We had to be in bed by 9:00 each night and at 7:45 the next morning.We had to wash dishes. beds,and learn to cook.I believe she lay at night thinking up mean things to do to us.

Through the years,things didn’t a bit.We could not lie in bed,pretending to be“ ”like our friends did to miss school.Our friends’ report cards had beautiful colors on them,black for passing,red for .My mother, ,would only be content with black marks.

As the years by,we graduated from high school.Out of the four children,a couple of us higher education than university level.With our mother us pushing and demanding, of us was allowed to drop out of school.She forced us to grow up into educated and honest adults.

Now I'm trying to my three children.I'm filled with when my children call me mean.Because,you see,I thank God,he gave me the meanest mother in the whole world.

Bearing a resemblance to the forest-surrounded "Love Tunnel" in Ukraine, the two-kilometer tunnel in Jiangning district Nanjing saw a recent rise in popularity as more than 2,000 tourists paid a visit every day this summer. The high number of visitors caused traffic safety concerns and increased the workload of sanitation workers. The Nanjing government had intended to cut the trees by end of 2014; After the Nanjing government was forced to draft plans to cut the trees due to public pressure, visitors poured into a railway section that runs through thick forest for sightseeing and to take photos this weekend, leaving the railway with overwhelming piles of trash.

However, in response to the government’s plan, complaints and outcries were made by the citizens that the love tunnel should be reserved. They claim that walking along the leafy green tunnel is like entering a fairytale, and a possible decision to tear down the trees could bring the story to a pitiful end.

We spent a day in the country, picking wild flowers. With the car full of flowers we were going home. On our way back my wife noticed a cupboard (柜廚) outside a furniture shop. It was tall and narrow. “Buy it, ” my wife said at once. “We’ll carry it home on the roof rack. I’ve always wanted one like that.”

What could I do? Ten minutes later I was £20 poorer; and the cupboard was tied on the roof rack. It was six feet long and eighteen inches square, quite heavy too.

In the gathering darkness I drove slowly. Other drivers seemed unusually polite that evening. The police even stopped traffic to let us through. Carrying furniture was a good idea.

After a time my wife said, “There’s a long line of cars behind. Why don’t they overtake, I wonder?” In fact a police car did overtake. The two officers inside looked at us seriously as they passed. But then, with great kindness, they led us through the rush-hour traffic. The police car stopped at our village church. One of the officers came to me.

“Right, sir, ” he said. “Do you need any more help?”

I was a bit puzzled. “Thanks, officer, ” I said. “You have been very kind. I live just on the road.”

He was staring at our car, first at the flowers, then at the cupboard. “Well, well, ” he said, laughing. “It’s a cupboard you’ve got there! We thought it was something else.”

My wife began to laugh. The truth hit me like a stone between the eyes. I smiled at the officer. “Yes, it’s a cupboard, but thanks again.” I drove home as fast as I could.

1.In fact the husband _______ the cupboard.

A. would like very much to buy B. badly wanted

C. was glad to have bought D. would rather not buy

2.Other drivers thought they were _______.

A. carrying a cupboard to the church

B. sending flowers to the church

C. carrying nothing but a piece of furniture

D. going to attend a funeral(葬禮) at the church

3.The police will be more polite to those who are _______.

A. driving in gathering darkness

B. in great sorrow (悲痛)

C. driving with wild glowers in the car

D. carrying furniture

4. What did the husband think of this matter?

One morning, Ann’s neighbor Tracy found a lost dog wandering around the local elementary school. She asked Ann if she could keep an eye on the dog. Ann said that she could watch it only for the day.

Tracy took photos of the dog and printed off 400 FOUND fliers(傳單), and put them in mailboxes. Meanwhile, Ann went to the dollar store and bought some pet supplies, warning her two sons not to fall in love with the dog. At the time, Ann’s son Thomas was 10 years old, and Jack, who was recovering from a heart operation, was 21 years old.

Four days later Ann was still looking after the dog, whom they had started to call Riley. When she arrived home from work, the dog threw itself against the screen door and barked madly at her. As soon as she opened the door, Riley dashed into the boys’ room where Ann found Jack suffering from a heart attack. Riley ran over to Jack, but as soon as Ann bent over to help him the dog went silent.

“If it hadn’t come to get me, the doctor said Jack would have died,” Ann reported to a local newspaper. At this point, no one had called to claim the dog, so Ann decided to keep it.

The next morning Tracy got a call. A man named Peter recognized his lost dog and called the number on the flier. Tracy started crying, and told him, “That dog saved my friend’s son.”

In the mid-1950s, I was a somewhat bored early-adolescent male student who believed that doing any more than necessary was wasted effort.One day, this approach threw me into embarrassment

In Mrs. Totten’s eighth-grade math class at Central Avenue School in Anderson, Indiana, we were learning to add and subtract decimals (小數(shù)).

Our teacher typically assigned daily homework, which would be recited in class the following day.On most days, our grades were based on our oral answer to homework questions.

Mrs. Totten usually walked up and down the rows of desks requesting answers from student after student in the order the questions had appeared on our homework sheets.She would start either at the front or the back of the classroom and work toward the other end.

Since I was seated near the middle of about 35 students, it was easy to figure out which questions I might have to answer.This particular time, I had completed my usual two or three problems according to my calculations.

What I failed to expect was that several students were absent, which threw off my estimate.As Mrs. Totten made her way from the beginning of the class,I desperately tried to determine which math problem I would get.I tried to work it out before she got to me, but I had brain freeze and couldn’t function.

When Mrs. Totten reached my desk,she asked what answer I’d got for problem No.14.“I…I didn’t get anything,” I answered,and my face felt warm.

“Correct,” she said.

It turned out that the correct answer was zero.

What did I learn that day? First, always do all your homework.Second, in real life it isn’t always what you say but how you say it that matters.Third,I would never make it as a mathematician.

If I could choose one school day that taught me the most, it would be that one.

1.What does the underlined part in Paragraph 1 indicate?

A.It is wise to value one’s time.

B.It is important to make an effort

C.It is right to stick to one’s belief.

D.It is enough to do the necessary.

2.Usually, Mrs. Totten asked her students to _______.

A.recite their homework together

B.grade their homework themselves

C.a(chǎn)nswer their homework questions orally

D.check the answers to their homework questions

3.The author could work out which questions to answer since the teacher always _______.

A.a(chǎn)sked questions in a regular way

B.walked up and down when asking questions

C.chose two or three questions for the students

D.requested her students to finish their usual questions

4.The author failed to get the questions he had expected because _______.

A.the class didn’t begin as usual

B.several students didn’t come to school

C.he didn’t try hard to make his estimate

D.Mrs. Totten didn’t start from the back of the class

5.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?

A.An Unforgettable Teacher B.A Future Mathematician

C.An Effective Approach D.A Valuable Lesson

Camilla Broomstick, a missing Camden –area woman, was reported found inside her damaged Chevrolet Malibu Sunday afternoon in a County near Camden New Jersey, at the bottom of an embankment(路堤) off a highway, according to authorities. Her car, turned upside down, was spotted by a passer-by who had stopped to view scenery and noticed something shining and what looked like a body, authorities said. When emergency responders arrived, they found Broomstick alive inside her severely damaged car. The vehicle rested upside down after flying 120 feet off the highway and rolling an additional 200 feet into an aspen woods.

“The crash alone would have killed her,” New Jersey State Trooper Dean Enoch said. “It's surprising that she survived the crash at all, and then to be down there for that amount of days without food or water.”

Earlier Monday, the family released a statement at the hospital thanking emergency responders who rushed Broomstick to the hospital and to the man who found her and notified authorities.

“We sincerely appreciate all the thoughts, prayers and kind gestures from the community during such a hard time for our family,” the statement read. “While we're hopeful of her prognosis(愈后), Camilla was seriously injured and with multiple internal and external injuries. Later this afternoon Camilla will be undergoing surgery here to amputate(截肢) both of her feet. Doctors were not able to save her feet due to the serious injuries. Camilla is in critical but stable condition at this time and has a very long road ahead.”

In the statement, family members mentioned reports that Broomstick wrote a request for help on an umbrella she pushed out the car window. “We cannot comment on that right now because we have not seen the umbrella,” the statement said. Family members also asked that the public respect their privacy.

1.Who found the severely damaged car?

A. The authorities. B. A passer-by.

C. Emergency responders. D. Her families.

2.Where was the damaged car when it was found?

A. 200 feet from the high way. B. 120 feet from the high way.

C. 220 feet from the high way. D. 320 feet from the high way.

3.What can we know from the passage ?

A. Camilla Broomstick was lucky to survive.

B. Camilla Broomstick had a strong will.

C. Camilla Broomstick had a good body.

D. Camilla Broomstick was bad in driving.

4.What is implied in the last two paragraphs?

A. Broomstick’s family are grateful for the doctors.

B. Broomstick’s family are not sure about the umbrella.

C. Broomstick’s family are worried about her legs.

D. Broomstick’s family are not willing to be disturbed.
