2．When I was in fourth grade，I worked part-time as a paperboy.Mrs.Stanley was one of my customers.She'd watch me coming down her street，and by the time I'd biked up to her doorstep，there'd be a cold drink waiting.I'd sit and drink while she talked.
Mrs.Stanley talked mostly about her dead husband， "Mr.Stanley and I went shopping this morning." she'd say.The first time she said that，soda（汽水） went up my nose.
I told my father how Mrs.Stanley talked as if Mr.Stanley were still alive.Dad said she was probably lonely，and that I ought to sit and listen and nod my head and smile，and maybe she'd work it out of her system.So that's what I did，and it turned out Dad was right.After a while she seemed content to leave her husband over at the cemetery（墓地）.
I finally quit delivering newspapers and didn't see Mrs.Stanley for several years.Then we crossed paths at a church fund-raiser（募捐活动）.She was spooning mashed potatoes and looking happy.Four years before，she'd had to offer her paperboy a drink to have someone to talk with.Now she had friends.Her husband was gone，but life went on.
I live in the city now，and my paperboy is a lady named Edna with three kids.She asks me how I'm doing.When I don't say "fine"，she sticks around to hear my problems.She's lived in the city most of her life，but she knows about community.Community isn't so much a place as it is a state of mind.You find it whenever people ask how you're doing because they care，and not because they're getting paid to do so.Sometimes it's good to just smile，nod your head and listen.
（1）Why did soda go up the author's nose one time？
A．He was shocked.

（2）Why did the author sit and listen to Mrs.Stanley according to Paragraph 3？
A．He wanted to be helpful.
B．He enjoyed the drink.
C．He took the chance to rest.
D．He tried to please his dad.
（3）Which of the following can replace the underlined phrase "work it our of her system"？
A．speak out about her past
B．move out of the neighborhood
C．turn to her old friends
D．recover from her sadness
（4）What does the author think people in a community should do？

C．Pay for other's help
D．Open up to others.组卷：0引用：3难度：0.5 -
3．British Writer John Donne once said： "No man is an island；every book is a world." As an enthusiastic reader，I can't agree with the latter part of the sentence more.Every summer，I endeavor to find some peaceful places where I can attack some classics without being disturbed.Thomas Hardy wants to live far from the madding crowd.I am no friend to chaos，either.
I read George Orwell's 1984 in a New England beachside cottage with no locks on the doors，no telephones or televisions in the rooms.1984 is a good book that needs deep reflection.Attempting Sound and Fury lying on the bed of a poorly-occupied motel，however，was less fruitful：I made it through one and a quarter volumes，but then my eyelids were so heavy that I couldn't keep them open.
But this summer I find myself at a loss.I'm not quite interested in J.D.Salinger，say，or Frankenstein.There's always War and Peace which I've covered some distance several times，only to get bogged down in the "War" part，set it aside for a while，and realize that I have to start over from the beginning again，having forgotten everyone's name and social rank.How appealing to simply fall back on a favorite—once more into The Call of the Wild or Alice in the Wonderland，which feels almost like cheating，too exciting and too much fun to properly belong to serious literature.
And then there's John Steinbeck's The Grapes of Wrath.This title do not amaze but confuse.We're never short of sour grapes，but we've never heard of angry grapes.Anyway grapes are my favorite fruit of summer.These stone fruits can always make me feel cheerful and peaceful all at once.
（1）What can we infer from Paragraph 2？
A．The author has a cottage in New England.
B．1984 is a book that needs careful thought.
C．Both of the reading attempts were not fruitful.
D．Sound and Fury was set in a poorly-occupied motel.
（2）Why does the author say reading his favorite books feels like cheating？
A．He finishes them quickly.
B．He barely understands them.
C．He should read something serious.
D．He gets amazed by their titles.
（3）What can we know about the author from this passage？
A．He is a literary-minded man.
B．He is quite forgetful.
C．He shows talent for literature.
D．Thomas Hardy is his friend.
（4）What's the author's purpose in writing the passage？
A．To criticize the uneasy world we live in.
B．To encourage readers to read books.
C．To introduce good books to readers.
D．To share his reading experience.组卷：2引用：1难度：0.5
