• 2．I remember my math teacher Mr.Young very well.He stood out because the kids made fun of him.He was missing one of his fingers，and always pointed at students with his middle finger.
     I was not very good at English and math.No matter how hard I tried，I just could not figure out why I did not understand what all the other kids found so easy to learn.
     One day，I was told that if I got one more E on my report card，I would be taken to the "big prison for kids"．
     I tried really hard for weeks.I just couldn't understand how to make different parts of members into whole things.
     The day before report cards were to come out，I knew that Mr.Young would give me an E，just like he always did.
     I went to Mr.Young and told him that the orphanage （孤儿院） was going to send me to the big prison if I got another E on my report card.He told me there was nothing he could do；it would be unfair to the other kids if he gave me a better grade than I had actually earned.
     I smiled at him and said， "Mr.Young，do you know how the kids make fun of you because you're missing your finger？" He looked at me，moved his mouth to one side and said nothing.
     "They shouldn't do that to you because you can't help not having a finger，Mr.Young.Just like I can't help not being able to learn numbers and stuff like that." I said.
     The next day，when I got my report card，I tucked it into one of my books.While on the school bus，I opened it：Geography，B+；Mechanical Drawing，C-；English，D-；History，C-；Gym，B+；Art，C；Math，D-.
     That math grade was the most favorite one I ever received.Because I knew that someone in the world finally understood what it was like for me to be missing a finger inside my head.
  
  （1）Where may the boy live according to the passage？

  
  A．In an orphanage.
  B．In a big prison.
  C．In the school dormitory.
  D．In his home.
  （2）What grade should the boy have got in the math test this time？

  
  A．D-
  B．E
  C．D
  D．B+
  （3）The underlined word "tucked" in the passage most probably means "

  "．
  A．stuck
  B．listed
  C．copied
  D．hid
  （4）The reason why the boy remembers Mr.Young is that

  .
  A．he missed one of his fingers
  B．he treated his students very well
  C．he understood the boy
  D．he taught his students in a special way

• 3．The wedding tradition of "something old，something new，something borrowed and something blue" has been around for hundreds of years.The tradition of carrying or wearing one of each item is said to bring luck and fortune to the newly married couple.Have you ever stopped to think what the saying really means？What is its origin and what does each item represent？
     The original saying dates back to the Victoria times and states，"something old，something new，something borrowed，something blue and a silver sixpence in your shoe."
     Something old A bride may wear or carry something old to represent her continued ties to her family and her old life.Many brides wear a piece of family jewelry as their old item.Some brides wear the wedding dress worn by their mother or grandmother.In many cases，something old may also be something borrowed.
     Something new Wearing something new is supposed to represent success and hope in the bride's new life and in her marriage.If the bride purchases her wedding dress，it may represent her new item，but any item that is new may be used.Something "new" is usually the easiest kind to fill.
     Something borrowed The borrowed item should be something borrowed from a friend that is happily married.It is said that their happiness will rub off on you and bring lasting happiness to your marriage.Some brides borrow an item of clothing，a piece of jewelry，a handkerchief or perhaps a beaded（饰以珠子的） purse.
     Something blue Wearing something blue dates back to ancient times when a blue wedding dress was worn to represent purity，fidelity and love.
     A silver sixpence Placing a silver sixpence in the bride's left shoe is said to be a symbol of wealth.This not only refers to financial wealth，but also a wealth of happiness and joy throughout her married life.Since most brides probably don't even know what a sixpence is，this part of the tradition is not used very often in modern times.However，if a bride would like to include it in her wedding，she can purchase a silver sixpence from many companies that sell bridal supplies such as garters （袜带） and invitations.
  
  （1）Why does the first paragraph end with two questions？

  
  A．To have readers' interest and attention.
  B．To show the importance of this tradition.
  C．To invite readers to answer them at once.
  D．To test readers' knowledge about wedding.
  （2）Which of the following statements is TRUE？

  
  A．The part of the tradition "a silver sixpence" is never used now.
  B．The borrowed item can be something borrowed from any friend.
  C．Something old might also be something borrowed actually.
  D．Something new is usually the most difficult and expensive kind to fill.
  （3）What can we infer from the passage？

  
  A．No brides now are not familiar with the silver sixpence.
  B．Of the five items，something blue is the most important one.
  C．The bride will be more beautiful with all these five items.
  D．Every item represents something good for the new couple.
  （4）Which word can replace the underlined word "fidelity" in the sixth paragraph？

  
  A．Success.
  B．Loyalty
  C．Wealth.
  D．Opportunity.

• 4．Life comes in a package.This package includes happiness and sorrow，failure and success，hope and despair.Life is a learning process.Experiences in life teach us new lessons and make us a better person.With each passing day we learn to handle various situations.
     Love
     Love plays a pivotal role on our life.Love makes you feel wanted.Without love a person could go Hayward（不归路） and also become cruel and ferocious.In the early stage of our life，our parents are the ones who show us with unconditional love and care.They teach us about what is right and wrong，good and bad.But we always tend to take this for granted.It is only after marriage and having kids that a person understands and becomes sensitive to others' feelings.Kids make a person responsible and mature and help us to understand life better.
     Happiness and Sorrow
     Materialistic happiness is shortlived，but happiness achieved by bringing a smile on others' face gives a certain level of fulfillment.Peace of mind is the main link to happiness.No mind is happy without peace.We realize the true worth of happiness when we are in jye.ai.Sorrow is basically due to death of a loved one，failure and despair.But these things are temporary and pass away.
     Failure and Success
     Failure is the path to success.It helps us to touch the sky，teaches us to survive and shows us a specific way.Success brings in money，fame，pride and selfrespect.Here it becomes very important to keep our head on our shoulder.The only way to show our gratitude to God for bestowing success on us is by being humble，modest，courteous and respectful to the less fortunate ones.
     Hope and Despair
     Hope is what keeps life going.Parents always hope their children will do well.Hope makes us dream.Hope builds in patience.Life teaches us not to despair even in the darkest hour，because after every night there is a day.Nothing remains the same we have only one choice keep moving on in life and be hopeful.
     Life teaches us not to regret over yesterday，for it has passed and is beyond our control.Tomorrow is unknown，for it could either be bright or dull.So the only alternative is work hard today，so that we will enjoy a better tomorrow.
  
  （1）In the passage，the author compares life to

  .
  A．package
  B．joy and sorrow
  C．failure and success
  D．hope and despair
  （2）In which section can readers probably read the passage？

  
  A．Opinions
  B．Politics
  C．Education
  D．Lifestyles
  （3）How is the passage organized？
