     It was at least two months before Christmas when nine-year-old Almie Rose told her father and me that
she wanted a new bicycle. As Christmas drew nearer, her desire for a bicycle seemed to fade (消退), or so
we thought. We bought her a lovely doll, and a doll house. Then, much to our surprise, on December 23rd,
she said that she "really wanted a bike more than anything else." But it was just too late. With such a lot of
preparations to do for the Christmas dinner we did not have the time to buy our little girl a bike. So, here we
were Christmas Eve around 9:00 p.m., with Almie and her six-year-old brother, Dylan, sleeping in their beds.
Now we could only think of the bicycle and the disappointment of our child. "What if I make a little bicycle
out of clay (泥) and write a note that she could trade (交易, 交换) the clay bike in for a real bike?" her dad
asked. So he spent the next four hours making a tiny clay bike. On Christmas morning, we were excited for
Almie to open the little gift box with the beautiful red and white clay bike and the note. Finally, she opened it
and read the note aloud. "Does this mean that I can trade in this bike that Daddy made me for a real one?" I
said, "Yes." Almie had tears in her eyes when she replied, "I could never trade in this beautiful bicycle that
Daddy made me. I"d rather keep this than get a real bike." At that moment, we would have moved heaven and
earth to buy her every bicycle in the world!

    a. The girl asked for a new bike.

A. a, b, c, e, d      
B. a, c, d, b, e
C. a, c, b, d, e      
D. a, b, d, c, e

B. Tears were in the girl"s eyes because she didn"t like the present at all.
C. The girl never lost her desire for a bike.

     The worker I hired to repair my house had just finished a difficult first day on the job. A broken wheel
made him an hour late; his ladder (梯子) fell down when he was painting the roof and now his old truck
wouldn" t start. With each problem he shouted angrily, more at himself than at his things. As I drove him
home, the man didn"t say a word.
     I tried talking to the man to kill time. I managed to find out that he had come up from Blue Hills in
Victoria with his family six months ago to find a job. This was his first job since moving here. I now knew
why his price was lower than any other worker I could find in the local newspaper. He really needed the job.
His clothes told me as much.
     On arriving, much to my surprise, he invited me in to meet his family. As we walked through his front
garden he suddenly stopped at a small tree and placed his hands on it. Then, when he opened the door he
completely changed. Instead of his troubled face, there was now a warm smile, hugs for his two children
and a kiss for his wife.
     The following day, I asked him about the tree.
     "That"s my trouble tree," he answered. "Work troubles aren"t welcome at home with my wife and the
children. So I hang them on that tree every night when I come home. Then in the morning I pick them up
again."
     "And you know what else?" he said smiling, "The next morning I find that there aren"t as many as I
remember hanging up the night before."
1. Which of the following things did NOT happen to the worker?
A. His truck broke down.
B. He was late for work.
C. He fell onto the roof.
D. His ladder fell down.
2. When did the worker first arrive in this town? 
A. Today.
B. Last night.
C. Six weeks ago.
D. Six months ago.
3. Where did the writer find the worker?
A. Through a newspaper.
B. Beside the trouble tree.
C. In his old house.
D. In Blue Hills, Victoria.
4. Why did the worker touch the tree?
A. To get good luck.
B. To leave his trouble outside.
C. To send good wishes to his family.
D. To clean his hands.
5. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Looking for a job can make trouble.
B. It is important to get to work on time.
C. Often our problems are worse than what we think.
D. A happy family can make many problems go away.
