My mom only had one eye. I hated her. She was such an   _. My mom ran a small shop at a flea market(跳蚤市场). She collected little weeds and such to sell anything for the  we needed, she was such an embarrassment. I remember that it was field day(户外活动日) during elementary school, and my mom came. I was so   . How could she do this to me? I threw her a    look and ran out. The next day at school, “Your mom only has one eye?" they   me.
I wished that my mom would just    from this world so I said to my mom, "Mom, why don"t you have the other eye?! You"re only going to make me a laughingstock(笑柄). Why don"t you just die?" My mom did not    . I guess I felt a little bad, but at the same time, it felt    to think that I had said what I"d wanted to say all this time.
Maybe it was because my mom hadn"t    me, but I didn"t think that I had hurt her feelings very badly.
That night I woke up, and went to the kitchen to get a glass of water. My mom was    there, so    , as if she was afraid that she might wake me. I took a look at her, and then turned    . Because of the thing I had said to her earlier, there was something pinching (夹痛)at me in the corner of my   . Even so, I hated my mother who was crying out of her one eye. So I told myself that I would grow up and become    , because I hated my one-eyed mom and our    poverty.
Then I studied really hard. I left my mother and came to Seoul and studied, and got admitted to the Seoul University with all the    I had. Then, I got married. I bought a house of my own. Then I had kids, too. Now I"m living happily as a successful man. I like it here because it"s a place that doesn"t    me of my mom.
This    was getting bigger and bigger, when someone    came to see me. "What? Who"s this?" It was my mother still with her one eye. It felt as if the whole sky was falling apart on me. My little daughter ran away,    of my mom"s eye.

小题10:D 动词辨析。A嘲笑;B饮酒,喝;C做饭;D抽泣。
小题11:B 副词辨析。根据空后的那句话,母亲不想弄醒我,所以是“静静地”。loudly大声地;quietly安静地;carefully认真地;sadly悲伤地。故选B。
小题12:A 副词辨析。 turn away转身离开。尽管母亲在哭泣,作者因为憎恶母亲,还是转身离开了。

Hank went to school like other boys. His grades were good and he needed only eight years to finish his schooling instead of the usual twelve. After graduating from school, he worked his way through college. He swept floors, waited on table, or worked in one of the college offices.

The first day our professor challenged us to get to know someone we didn’t know. I looked around when a gentle hand touched my shoulder. I turned around to find a wrinkled, little old lady smiling at me.
She said, “Hi, handsome. My name is Rose. I’m 87. Can I give you a hug?” I laughed, “Of course you may!” and she gave me a giant squeeze. “Why are you in college at such a young, innocent age?” I asked. She jokingly replied, “I’m here to meet a rich husband, get married, and have a couple of children.” “No seriously,” I said. “I want to realize my dream!” she told me. Over the course of the year, Rose became a campus icon and everyone liked to listen to this “time machine”.
At the end of the semester we invited Rose to speak at our football banquet and I’ll never forget what she taught us. “There is a huge difference between growing older and growing up. If you are 19 and lie in bed for one full year and don’t do one productive thing, you will turn 20. If I am 87 and stay in bed for a year and never do anything I will turn 88. We have less time to live on. Anybody can grow older. That doesn’t take any talent or ability. The idea is to grow up by always finding opportunity in change. The elderly usually don’t have regrets for what we did, but rather for things we did not do.”
At the year’s end, Rose finished the college degree she had dreamed about all those years. One week after graduation Rose died peacefully in her sleep. Over 2,000 students attended her funeral honoring the wonderful woman who taught us such an important message.
小题1:Rose made herself known to the author in a _____ manner.
A.seriousB.coldC.crazyD.humorous
小题2:Rose was considered a “time machine” because she _____.
A.always followed a strict time schedule
B.was never late for any of her classes
C.had lived a long and rich life
D.always appeared in time whenever she was needed
小题3:According to Rose, growing up is different from growing older because _____.
A.growing up doesn’t need as much effort or talent as growing older
B.growing up means young people have enough time to waste
C.there is no need for one to worry about death
D.growing up means one has more chances or time to choose what one likes
小题4:Rose came to study in college at such an old age for the purpose of _____.
A.challenging her old age
B.realizing her long dream about college education

A man who failed to return more than 700 children’s books to five different libraries in the county was put into prison. Yesterday he was set free after a book publisher agreed to post his bond (担保金) of $1,000. The publisher said, “There’s a story here. This is a man who loves books. He just can’t let go of them. He hasn’t stolen a single book. So what’s the crime? We think that Mr. Brush has a story to tell. We plan to publish his story.”
When asked why he didn’t return the books, Mr. Brush said, “Well, how could I? They became family to me. I was afraid to return them, because I knew that kids or dogs would get hold of these books and chew them up, throw them around, rip the pages, spill soda on them, get jam and jelly on them, and drown them in the toilet.”
He continued, “Books are people, too! They talk to you, they take care of you, and they enrich you with wisdom and humor and love. A book is my guest in my home. How could I kick it out? I repaired torn pages. I dusted them with a soft clean cloth. I turned their pages so they could breathe and get some fresh air.
“Every week I reorganized them on their shelves so they could meet new friends. My books were HAPPY books. You could tell just by looking at them. Now they’re all back in the library, on the lower shelves, on the floors, at the mercy of all those runny-nosed kids. I can hear them calling me! I need to rescue them. Excuse me. I have to go now.”

“Tell me again how you learned to ride a horse,” I would ask my father when I was a little girl in Denmark. I was no more than four years old—too little to learn to ride a horse by myself. But I liked to hear my father tell his story. And then he would begin.
“When I was a little boy, as little as you are now,” he would say, “I wanted to ride the horses. But I was too small to mount a horse. So I would slip into my father’s stables to be with the horses and admire them. Such big, powerful animals they were!
“The gentle workhorses stood quietly in their stalls, eating their hay. I would climb up the side of one of the stalls and slide over onto the horse’s back.
“Then I would hold its mane and imagine us running quickly over the grasslands, down to the shore, and even into the sea.
“When I grew tall enough to mount a horse,” he said, “my wish came true.”
“You swim with the horses now,” I said. “You even swim with Fiery. And he has spirit!”
Everybody knew about Fiery, the great black male horse with the fierce temper, and how he behaved when he first came to the stables. He raised itself on its back legs with the front legs in the air. He snorted and kicked. He rolled his eyes. And everyone was afraid of him. Everyone, except my father.
I wanted to hear more. “Now tell me how you made Fiery your friend,” I begged. This was my favorite story.
“Well, little Else,” my father went on, “I just talked to him. I talked as a friend. You must talk to a horse like Fiery.
“I’d say, ‘No, little horse. No, my friend. You can’t run free. You must learn to let me ride you.’
“And soon Fiery began to listen. He knew from my voice that I would be his friend.”
So Fiery let my father teach him to carry a rider. Then Fiery would take my father across the soft green grasslands or even into the lively waters of the northern sea. I loved to see Father riding Fiery without a saddle(马鞍) into the sea. There they swam, Father and Fiery, out in the cold, clear water.
Often I would watch them from the shore, holding tight to my mother’s hand. They swam so bravely. I was so proud of them!
Then Father and Fiery would come splashing out of the water and run along the shore toward us. They made a fine stop—just in time!
Fiery towered over us. He tossed his head and shook sea water from his shining black coat.
Father was laughing and patting Fiery’s neck.
And I was making a wish.
I wished that someday I could have a horse, too . . . but a smaller one!
小题1:What is Fiery like when he first comes to the stables?
A.He is quiet and lazy.
B.He is wild and full of spirit.
C.He makes friends with everyone.
D.He only lets Else’s father ride him.
小题2:Where does Else most like to watch her father ride Fiery?
A.At the seashore.B.On the farm.
C.In the grasslands.D.In the stables.
小题3:In the passage, the underlined word “mount” means___________.
A.feed withB.talk aboutC.fasten toD.climb onto
小题4:How does Else feel about horses after watching her father ride Fiery?
A.She wants a horse just like Fiery.
B.She has no interest in riding horses.
C.She would like to have a smaller horse.
D.She thinks horses should not go into the sea.
小题5:What does Else learn from her father’s story?
A.How to train a workhorse.
B.How to swim with a horse.
C.How to make friends with a horse.
D.How to ride a horse without a saddle.
