阅读理解。    Very often, new-born babies are not beautiful. They are wrinkled (多皱的) or hairless, or they have an
angry look on their faces. They seem to say, "Get away! I hate everybody." But to a parent, that hairless,
wrinkled, angry-faced baby is the most beautiful and perfect child in the world. When that proud father or
mother asks you, "Well, what do you think of my baby? Isn"t she beautiful?" What are you going to say? Is
the time for the truth? Of course not!
    You look that proud father in the eye and say, "Yes, she is! She"s really a beauty. She"s one in a million.
She"s going to be a movie star! I can tell! She"s as beautiful as a picture."
    In English, this is a white lie. White lies don"t hurt people. They are not cruel (残忍的) or angry words.
People use them to make a difficult thing a little easier. When people don"t want to meet someone, or eat
something new that they really don"t like at a friend"s house, they tell a white lie. They are trying to be kind.
They don"t want to hurt someone. It"s important to be honest, but many people feel that being kind is
sometimes more important. 1. Parents are usually ______ when their new babies are born. [     ]
A. angry
B. proud
C. sad
D. surprised 2. When a parent asks what you think of their new baby, they want you to ______.[     ]
A. tell the truth
B. say what you like
C. tell lies
D. say good words 3. The word "white" in this passage means " ______ " in Chinese. [     ]
A. 善意的
B. 恶意的
C. 白色的
D. 苍白的 4. From the passage we can know that ______. [     ]
A. a new-born baby hates everyone around her
B. a new-born baby is the most beautiful on
C. people who tell white lies are not kind
D. people who tell white lies want to be kind5. Which of the following is a white lie? [     ]
A. You broke the window but you say you didn"t.

阅读短文,回答问题。        I remember as a small child at gatherings (聚会) with family or friends, someone would ask: "What are you
going to be when you grow up?"
        At first I said I wanted to be a cowboy or some super hero. Later it was a fireman, artist, architect
(建筑师)… As I grew older my dreams of the future changed. When at last I was in college, I was asked: "What
will you major (主修) in?" By then I had my heart set on becoming a computer programmer. So I studied and
prepared for that life. I was designing software full-time for much of my life.
        I am content (满意的) that could realize my dream. However, for many, there is a "thief" who goes around
stealing our dreams.
        We find ourselves close to reaching our goal. Then we hear this small voice inside our heads saying: "You"ll
never make it." "You can"t possibly do this." "Very few have ever done this successfully." On and on, the voice
predicts (预言) some kind of failure.
        Don"t listen to that voice. There are no overnight (突如其来的) successes, but with perseverance
(坚定不移). It will come. Imagine yourself in the life you dream of living. Then in your heart, believe it will
happen for you, as it has for others. Then work, work, and work! You get the picture.
        Be true to your dream, and don"t let anyone steal it from you — especially yourself. You can do anything
your heart desires, so don"t give up or give in. 1. As a child, the writer didn"t want to be ______. [     ]

阅读短文,选择正确答案。        Oftentimes one hears children wishing they were grown-ups, and old people wishing they were youngsters
again. Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age
gives him without wasting his time in useless things. 
        Childhood is a time when there are few responsibilities (责任) to think about. A child is usually fed, looked
after and loved by his parents. He will never be expected to do anything in return. In addition (另外), life is
always presenting (呈现) new things to a child, but the things that have lost their appeal (吸引力) for the old
because they are too well-known. In the meanwhile, a child has his pains: he is not so free to do what he wishes
to, he is continually (不断地) being told not to do a certain thing, or being punished for what he has done wrong.
        After a child grows up, he starts to make his own living. He can no longer expect others to pay for his
food, his clothes, or his room, and he has to work if he wants to live comfortably. If he spends most of his time
playing about in the way he used to play as a child, he will go hungry. And if he breaks the laws of society as he
used to break the laws of his parents, he may go in prison. If, however, he works hard, keeps out of trouble and
has good health, he can have the great happiness of building up his own position in society. 1. According to the second paragraph, the writer thinks that             . [     ]
A. life for a child is very easy

A. Parents hardly expect their children to do anything in return.
B. Children get interested in things around them.
C. Adults are free to do what they want to.
D. Adults should rely on themselves. 3. The main idea of the passage is that             . [     ]
A. life is never enjoyable since each age has some pains.
B. young men can have the greatest happiness.
C. childhood is the most enjoyable time in one"s life
D. one can be a happy person only if he can enjoy each age of his life 4. The paragraph following this passage will most probably discuss             . [     ]
