Part 3 Reading and Writing

IX. Reading Comprehension ：

A. Choose the best answer ：

For his eleventh birthday, Lin was given a gift that would shape his life. On that day his father took him to the Children’s Activity Centre and said he could choose any course that interested him. There was just one requirement: Lin would have to promise to study it for at least one year.

To that point Lin had had many hobbies, but none kept his interest for more than a week or two. His mum once gave him a bag of stamps to encourage stamp collecting. That hobby lasted a week. Then his father got him some paints hoping that Lin’s artistic side would shine through. Those paints were now under his bed, some still unopened. This time Lin’s parents would let him decide.

Lin’s eyes moved down the noticeboard that listed all the courses on offer. He sTOPped at “Photography”. He liked the idea of taking beautiful pictures but the notice said that each student needed their own camera. Although Lin’s family weren’t poor, they weren’t rich either, and a camera cosplayt a lot of money. He continued looking.

The next course to__________ was“Language Art”. He didn’t even know what that meant. His

father explained that it taught people how to make public speeches. Lin, a shy boy, to him it couldn’t be worse.

Then he saw it.“Cooking”sounded like something he’d like to do. It was inexpensive and convenient, it could be done alone and it was also creative.

based on Lin’s hobby history, his dad had doubts（疑惑），but he agreed. Much to his parents’ surprise, Lin kept his promise. He studied cooking at the Centre every Saturday, and practiced at home, making delicious meals for his family. Everyone looked forward to birthdays, when they

could eat his cakes. Lin got great satisfaction from the pleasure his food brought to others.

The months turned to years but his hobby never became different again.

Now Lin is an adult and runs a wonderful restaurant. When customers say they enjoy his meal, he still gets the same pleasure he did as a child, and remembers the special gift he received all those years ago.

69. What hobby didn’t Lin try according to the passage?

A. Cooking B. Collecting stamps

C. Painting D. Making public speeches

70. Why didn’t Lin choose to study photography?

A. It was too expensive B. He was not very creative

C. He had no interest in it D. It was not offered that term

71. The underlined expression “catch his eye” in Paragraph 4 means“____________________”.

A. make him excited B. cause him surprise

C. get his attention D. help him see clearly

72. Which of the following best describes Lin’s interest in cooking?

A. It only lasted for a short time. B. It seemed to match his character.

C. It was chosen by his parents. D. It developed slowly over many months.

73. Why did the father have doubts when Lin chose cooking?

A. Lin wasn’t good at cooking. B. Cooking wasn’t very convenient.

C. He didn’t think Lin would continue. D. Cooking wasn’t a good hobby for a boy.

74. What’s the best title for the passage?

A. A Strict Father B. The Fun of Cooking

C. A Changeable Boy D. The Birthday Gift

B. Choose the best answer and complete the passage：

I will never forget the Sunday afternoons I spent at my grandfather’s farm in Western Pennsylvania when I was a little boy. Miles of winding stone walls around the house  provided endless hours of 75__________ for a city kid like me.

I can  still  remember  one  afternoon  when  I was eight  years  old.  Since  my first  visit  to the

____________________76____________________, I’d wanted to be allowed to climb the stone walls around the farm. My parents would never think it was good. Still, my wish to climb across those walls grew so____________________77____________________.  One spring

afternoon, I picked up all my courage and entered the living room, where the adults were sitting and talking over tea after dinner.

“Can I climb the stone walls?”I asked. Immediately the women in the room cried.“Heavens, no! You’ll __________78__________yourself!”I wasn’t too disappointed; their reply was just as I’d expected. But before I could leave the room, my grandfather sTOPped me.“Wait a minute.”I heard him say,“Let the boy climb the stone walls. He has to__________79__________to do things for himself.”

“Hurry up,”he said to me,“and come and see me when you get back.”For the next two and a  half hours I climbed those old walls and had the time of my life. Later I met with my grandfather to tell him about my adventure （冒险）. I’ll never forget what he said.“Fred,” he said, smiling,“you made this day a__________80__________day just by being yourself. Always remember, there’s only one person in

this whole world like you, and I like you exactly as you are.”

C. Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words（在短文的空格内填入适合的词，使其内容通顺，每空格限填一词，首字母已给）（14 分）

It does not always come easy to discover oneself. From a young age, I had a strong sense of who I was to become, but an accident made me redefine（重审）my self.

To me, cycling was above all. There was n____________________81____________________in this world that filled my heart with such

joy. I spent twenty-four hours a week practicing my s__________82__________. Having no social life or interests but cycling, my great love brought me first place medals in nearly every competition.

Unfortunately,  in one show,  I fell down and hurt myself b____________________83____________________. After several X-rays  and

MR（I  磁共振）scans, the doctor told me that I couldn’t return to my sport any more. The pain in my

back was hard to bear and even the b__________84__________daily tasks became difficult.

As my passion（激情）was taken away, I had little sense of who I was to become. After eight months of suffering, something had to c__________85__________.  Instead  of  wasting  my  days  sitting  around painfully, I began to put my energy into local community service projects. By volunteering as a

swimming teacher and summer reading assistant for kids, I got an idea of who I wanted to become. After a few months, I spent most of the time on my interest in the arts. Little by Little, I stepped out of the shadow（阴影）and r__________86__________my confidence.

Sometimes, some large rocks block our way. We can choose to stay behind or try to climb over.

My accident was a rock, but it f__________87__________ to  sTOP  me from reaching  success.  Today  I’m a  very confident and optimistic person.

D. Answer the questions（依据短文内容回答下列问题）（12 分）

A Beautiful Moment

When I was in high school, I worked part-time helping Dad sell fruits and vegetables at a market. One day, as I was preparing the fruits, a little boy came by with his mom and sister. He was about eight years old, and the girl, six or seven. They were looking at the fruits in front of me. I heard the kids say to their mom in French.“They’re good!”I knew it was French because I can speak and understand it.

Then I noticed how the mom was picking the fruits. At first I thought she was really looking at the fruits because she was facing them. But then I noticed how much she had to feel and smell each one as she picked them out. And she often asked her son if it looked okay, but looked way above where his face was. Putting what I saw together, I was sure she was blind.

Both of the kids continued to help their mom pick out the fruits. The son made sure the fruits were not obviously bad, and the daughter handed them to her mom. The woman then felt each one and smiled, and the daughter would put them into their basket. The kids were smiling while helping their mom pick the fruits out.

Their smile and gentle manner moved me in a way that never happened before. It was so

beautiful to see such young kids so willingly help. Most kids that age would be picking out candies or toys in a store for themselves, instead of helping their mom pick out fruits as the two kids did.

It was great to see the moment with my own eyes, but not so great because I didn’t tell the mom how beautiful her children were in their language. This is what I feel sorry to this day.

88. Where did the writer help his dad sell fruits and vegetables?

89. What did the woman and her kids come to the market to buy?

90. How was the woman picking the fruits?

91. Why did the woman have to feel and smell each one as she picked them out?

92. Were the kids glad to help their mom pick the fruits out?

93. What do you think the beautiful moment is? Give the detail.
