A

Two inseparable (形影不离的) friends,Sam and Jason,met with an accident on their way to Boston City.The following morning,Jason woke up blind and Sam was still unconscious.Dr Berkeley was standing at his bedside looking at his health chart and medications with a thoughtful expression on his face.When he saw Sam awake,he beamed at him and asked,“How are you feeling today,Sam?”Sam tried to put up a brave face and smiled back saying,“Absolutely wonderful,Doctor.I am very grateful for all that you have done for me.” Dr Berkeley was moved at Sam's deed.All that he could say was,“You are a very brave man,Sam.And God will make it up to you in one way or another.” While he was moving on to the next patient,Sam called back at him almost pleading (请求),“Promise me you won't tell Jason anything.”

“You know I won't do that.Trust me.” and then walked away.

Months later when Jason had recuperated (恢复) considerably,he stopped hanging around with Sam.He felt discouraged and embarrassed to spend time with a disabled person like Sam. Sam was lonely and depressed and things went from bad to worse.One day Sam died in despair.When Jason was called on his burial,Dr Berkeley gave a letter to him with an expressionless face and said,“This is for you,Jason.Sam had asked me to give it to you when he was gone.”

In the letter he had said,“Dear Jason,I have kept my promise in the end to lend you my eyes if anything had happened to them.Now there is nothing more that I can ask from God than the fact that you will see the world through my eyes.You will always be my best friend...Sam.”

When he had finished reading,Dr Berkeley said,“I had promised Sam to keep his sacrifice he made a secret from you.But now I wish I didn't stick to it because I don't think it was worthy it.”

I used to know nothing about fairy tales (童话故事).To improve my reading skills,my mother gave me books that are a little bit difficult for me to understand.I didn't even know that fairy tales existed until I attended a public school at the age of eight.Of course once I found out about books of this type,I would read them as quickly

as I could.

Again and again,I begged my mother to take me to the library and let me choose a few.Finally,my request was granted (同意).After our return from the library,I started reading them eagerly and energetically,one after another.And I tried to put myself in the female character's shoes.I found she had to suffer before the handsome prince came to her rescue,and then they would live happily ever after.

I asked my mother why she never let me know about fairy tales.Looking me in the eyes,she told me that life is not like a fairy tale.There are good and bad things that will happen through life.In the end though,there is not a man that will come and “save” us.We do not need to be saved;we instead want someone in our lives to share those good moments and bad ones;we want someone we can rely on and also he or she can rely on us.Life is not about “living happily ever after”.

What then is life in Mom's opinion? Life is the boy finding he loves every little thing about you,even the annoying (使人烦恼的) things.He holds your hands and says “come with me” and you live,laugh together.But things are not going to be perfect.You still have to face difficulties together,working hard for your relationship.

【语篇解读】 人人都向往完美的童话世界,然而,在不完美的现实生活中,幸福却要靠我们自己努力去争取。

5.What happened to the author after she attended a public school? A.She started to like reading. B.She was crazy about fairy tales.

C.Her mother always took her to the library.

D.Her mother didn't allow her to read books of fairy tales.

解析:细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Again and again,I begged my mother to take me to the library and let me choose a few...After our return from the library,I started reading them eagerly and energetically,one after another.”可知,作者对童话故事十分着迷。

答案:B

6.What's the author's understanding of fairy tales at first? A.They reflect part of the real world. B.They are unreal but worth reading.

C.The major characters always have a happy ending.

D.The major characters will be rewarded for their kindness.

解析:细节理解题。根据第二段中的“I found she had to suffer before the handsome prince came to her rescue,and then they would live happily ever after.”可知,作者发现童话故事中的主人公总是能有一个圆满的结局。

答案:C

7.What does the author's mother think of fairy tales? A.A must for her kid. B.Unnecessary for her kid. C.Easy for her kid to understand.

D.Helpful in building her kid's character.

解析:推理判断题。根据第三段中的“I asked my mother why she never let me know about fairy tales.Looking me in the eyes,she told me that life is not like a fairy tale.”可知,作者的母亲曾经避免让作者接触童话故事,因为她觉得人生不同于童话故事。因此可以推知,作者的母亲觉得作者没有必要去读童话故事。

答案:B

8.The author's mother intends to explain that ________. A.life is not perfect B.no pain,no gain C.life is about sharing

D.one needs to live on his/her own 解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Life is the boy finding he loves every little thing about you...and you live,laugh together.But things are not going to be perfect.You still have to face difficulties together,working hard for your relationship.”可知,即使人们与人生的伴侣走到了一起,之后发生的事情未必尽如人意,两个人还要共同面对困难,努力维系这份感情。由此可以推知,作者的母亲意在说明:与童话世界不同,现实中的生活并不完美,总会有问题需要我们去处理。

答案:A

C

Starting high school life can be extremely exciting and at the same time nerve-wracking.You may worry about all these things what classes to take,what to wear on the first day of school and what will everyone think of you.But so far high school has been the best experience for me ever.

On my first day of high school,I asked a senior where my class was,and he told me it was on the fourth floor,next to the pool.I found out five minutes later that we didn't even have a fourth floor and had no pool either! Besides that event,I
