1．Mary Moe may look like an average grandmother．But she is not．She just learned how to fly an airplane，a dream she has had since she was a little girl．But Mary Moe could not find time to make her dream come true．At age 34，she was just too busy to think about flying a plane．Lessons were costly．Everything seemed to be working against Mary．So her dream had to wait．
Mary Moe has done a lot during the past 91 years．For much of that time．she wanted to fly，but never had the chance-until now．
MS．Moe learned about Wish of a Lifetime．a non-profit organization．Its goal is to change the way our society thinks about aging and older adults．Sally Webster works for the group．She said Ms．Moe's wish is one of hundreds they receive each year．
Wish of a Lifetime helps older people to enjoy a dream．It also sends the message that it is never too late for a dream．But Ms．Webster says it also wants to send another message to society that older Americans can achieve things just like younger Americans can．
Susie Danick also believes in this goal．She founded TAD Relocation，a business that helps senior citizens when they move．Ms．Danick gave 5.000 to the wish of a Lifetime to help seniors realize a dream．Mary Moe was one of them．
Mary Moe received three flying lessons．And on the big day of her first flight，her family and friends all came to cheer her on．Mary's success made everyone around her excited and proud．It was just a great event，a great day．Flying teacher David Waksberg says she was very calm，which is always important when you're flying．
It is never too late to spread your wings and try something new．You are never too old to try to make your dreams come true．
（1）Why was Mary Moe's dream difficult to come true？
A．No pilots were willing to help her．
B．She did nothing for flying lessons．
C．Her family did not support her wish．
D．She had no enough time and money in the past．

（3）What do we know about Wish of a Lifetime？

3．I wished I had known earlier the fact that I was a low achiever because there was a reason beyond my control．Then I needn't have worked so hard in my late twenties and early thirties．But I just didn't know that．I was writing and writing．I was working for no other reason than to hear people praise me．
Most people who go through university read at least twice as fast as I do．I can never tell my left from my right．I avoid dialing a telephone if I can help it，because I sometimes have to try three times before getting the number right．I hear that recording"The number you have reached is not in service"more than any man on earth．
Despite my weaknesses I view my dyslexia（difficulty in reading）as a gift，not a curse（诅咒）．Many dyslexics are good at right brain，namely abstract thought，and that is what my king of creative writing is．I'm starting with nothing and coming up with something that didn't exist before．That's my strong point．I owe my career to Ralph，Salisbury，my writing instructor at the University of Oregon，who looked past my misspellings and gave me encouragement and hope．I just carried on and never looked back．I'm also very"visual"．This means nothing in school，but when I write books or scripts，I'm seeing everything in my imagination．I write quickly．I go like the wind and can get up to 15 pages a day．Writing is not the problem．I have no problem downloading；it is inputting where things get messed up．
The real fear I have for dyslexics is not that they have to struggle with messy input，but that they will quit on themselves before they finish school．Parents have to create victories whenever they can，whether it is music，sports or the arts．You want your dyslexic child to be able to say，"Yeah，reading is hard．But I have these other things I can do．"
（1）From Paragraph 3 we can know that．
A．the author often complained about his dyslexia
B．the author was grateful to his writing instructor
C．the author had trouble with both inputting and outputting
D．the author wrote slowly because of his problem in inputting
（2）For dyslexics，the author thinks that．
A．they should work as hard as himself
B．they should be constantly encouraged
C．they should put their hearts into reading
D．they had better choose to drop out of school
（3）Which of the following proverbs can best summarize the main idea of the passage？
A．Reading enriches the mind．
B．He who laughs last laughs best．
C．Where there is a will，there is a way．
D．When God closes a door，somewhere he opens a window．
（4）What kind of man is the writer？
A．Clever but selfish．
B．Diligent and generous．
C．Open-minded and optimistic．
D．Kind but useless．组卷：0引用：1难度：0.5
