An eight-year-old child heard her parents talking about her little brother. All she knew was that he was very sick and they had no money. Only a very expensive operation(手术) could save him now and there was no one to lend them the money.
  When she heard her daddy say to her tearful mother, “Only a miracle(something couldn’t happen) can save him now,” the little girl went to her bedroom and pulled her money from its hiding place and counted it carefully.
  She hurried to a drugstore(药店)with the money in her hand.
  “And what do you want?” asked the salesman. “ It"s for my little brother,” the girl answered. “He"s really,really sick and I want to buy a miracle. ”
  "Pardon?”said the salesman.
  “My brother Andrew has something bad growing in-side his head and my daddy says only a miracle can save him. So how much does a miracle cost?”“We don"t sell a miracle here,child. I"m sorry,”the salesman said with a smile.
  “Listen,if it isn"t enough,I can try and get some more. Just tell me how much it costs. ”
  A well-dressed man heard it and asked, “What kind of a miracle does your brother need?”  “I don"t know,” she answered with her eyes full of tears. “He"s really sick and mum says he needs an operation. But my daddy can"t pay for it, so I have brought all my money. ”
  “How much do you have?” asked the man. “$ 1.11, but I can try and get some more,” she answered.
  “Well, what luck,”smiled the man. “$ 1.11, the price of a miracle for little brothers. ”
  He took up the girl"s hand and said, “Take me to where you live. I want to see your brother and meet your parents. Let"s see if I have the kind of miracle you need. ”

Do your parents ever say, “act like a lady” or “be a gentleman” to you? But in the eyes of today’s teenagers, what should a lady or a gentleman be like? Let’s take a look.
What is a gentleman? The girls have their ideas:
Huang Xiaoyu of Guizhou: A gentleman doesn’t always get angry. He wants others to be well and happy. He is always ready to help. There is a boy in my class and I think he is a gentleman. If I don’t do well in the English exam, he will say, “You will do better next time.” That makes me feel happy.
Chen Tingting of Shenzhen: A gentleman always says, “Ladies first” When students clean up the classroom, he does the heavy work. He lets girls go into rooms first. There are no gentlemen in my class. When there is something to eat, the boys in my class always get them before girls !
What is a lady? Boys tell us what they think a lady is:
Wu Yifan of Dalian: A lady is quiet and kind, but she’s not shy(害羞) and she can talk about her ideas in front of others. To me, Dong Jie, a film star, is a lady. She is pretty and she kind. She does a lot for others.
Wang Lichao of Tianjin: A lady is not just beautiful but clever. She never says bad words. She is quiet and kind to others. I don’t think there is a lady in my class. Most of the girls are “wild beauties”, I think.

Hotels can make a person’s stay away from home as restful as possible. Hotels provide warm beds to allow guests a peaceful night’s rest. Besides, some hotels offer guests special services such as newspapers to read in the morning, fresh coffee, and even breakfast. Hotel workers want their guests to feel warm and welcome when they stay in their hotel.
One hotel near the Arctic Circle, however, is different. This hotel gives its guests a cold welcome. The Ice Hotel, in Sweden, is all made of ice. The Ice Hotel might sound strange, but in some ways it is a special hotel. It has a front lobby where guests check into the hotel, plenty of rooms to sleep in, and even room service, which guests can use to have food delivered to their rooms. The Ice Hotel is different, though, because most of the items are made from ice.
It takes more than 30 tons of ice and snow to build the Ice Hotel. It melts(融化) in the summer and is rebuilt each winter. Different builders and artists create the Ice Hotel, so each winter this famous hotel has a new shape and design.
The effort of building the Ice Hotel is worth it, however. Walking into the Ice Hotel is like walking into a diamond. The walls reflect even the smallest bits of light. Ice pillars(柱子)support the roof. The floor below shines like glass. Almost every inch of this hotel sparkles inside. Visiting the Ice Hotel is truly an unusual experience.
Temperatures inside the Ice Hotel are usually below freezing. Guests wear warm jackets, hats, gloves, and thick boots. Even the owners of the Ice Hotel know that staying in a building with walls of ice four feet thick can be a bit cold. They have a solution though. The Ice Hotel has a sauna for its guests. A sauna is a room filled with steam, where guests can warm themselves. In a way, then, one could say that the Ice Hotel does give their guests a warm welcome after all.
小题1:Why must the Ice Hotel be rebuilt each year ?
A.Because the hotel melts during the summer.
B.Because guests suggest changes to the hotel.
C.Because the hotel is damaged by the sauna.
D.Because more rooms are needed at the hotel.
小题2: From paragraph2 we can infer that ______.
A.the Ice Hotel has temperatures below freezing but is warm inside
B.guests of the Ice Hotel check in at the front lobby
C.the Ice Hotel is like other hotels except that it is made of ice
D.guests of the Ice Hotel may order food that is delivered to their rooms
小题3:What is the purpose of the writer writing the article?
A.To describe the temperature inside a hotel.
B.To give information about an uncommon hotel.
C.To compare different kinds of hotels.
D.To encourage people to visit hotels.

For as long as I can remember, Grandma’s plentiful tomato garden has been a sign of summer’s end. Each September, just as the decreased heat of the sun suggests cooler days, Grandma requests (ask for something) my help in her tomato garden. I’m sure that she cannot pick tomatoes without my youthful eyes and quick mind. She says we need to examine each tomato and agree on its readiness for picking. While Grandma’s request for my help in the tomato garden is always the same, her desire for my help seems to increase each year.
  Grandma has eyes for finding even the tomatoes hidden by undergrowth and other tomatoes. I, however, just turn circles looking for the ones I think Grandma will like. I spot what looks like a ripe(成熟的)tomato, head in its direction, and then get sidetracked by another that appears to be equally ripe. I usually end up watching Grandma and trying to stay out of her way, which seems the only way my eyes and mind are useful.
  There we are, lost in the tomato vines(藤). Grandma’s eyes are always knowing, and they are no different in the vegetable garden. From afar she spots (notice) what looks like a ripe tomato. As she walks toward the garden, she evaluates the tomato for a second time, but from a different angle. I already know it will end up in the basket with the pile of others Grandma has carefully chosen. However, Grandma acts as if she needs a final look to be sure. She calls me to her side, kneels beside the vine while enjoying the warmth of the fading sunlight on her face, and grasps the tomato in her hand. She turns each round, red ball toward the sunlight before disconnecting it from the vine with a half-hearted smile.
  She then looks at me. I nod my head and smile. Grandma assumes I smile in agreement with her tomato selection. I know I smile, instead, at her.
小题1: Why does Grandma ask the author to go to the tomato garden with her?
A.He can help pick more tomatoes.
B.He can learn the hardship of labor.
C.She enjoys staying with him while working.
D.She tries to share tomato harvest with him.
小题2:The second paragraph shows that the writer _________.
A.isn’t good at picking tomatoes
B.doesn’t like to stay with Grandma
C.thinks his eyes and mind are useful
D.is trying to be out of Grandma’s sight
小题3: What’s the best title of the story?
A.Gardening—good for my Grandma.
B.Growing Grandma.
C.Gardening—good for my growth.
D.Picking tomatoes.
