The show business thing worked out, of course. In her career, Mary won many awards. Only recently, when she began to write Growing Up Again, did she regret ignoring her mom, “I don"t know how to use a computer,” she admits.
Unlike her 1995 autobiography(自传), After All, her second book is less about life as an award-winning actress and more about living with diabetes (糖尿病). All the money from the book is intended for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF), an organization she serves as international chairman. “I felt there was a need for a book like this,” she says. “I didn"t want to lecture, but I wanted other diabetics to know that things get better when we"re self-controlled and do our part in managing the disease.”
But she hasn"t always practiced what she teaches. In her book, she describes that awful day, almost 40 years ago, when she received two pieces of life-changing news. First, she had lost the baby she was carrying, and second, tests showed that she had diabetes. In a childlike act, she left the hospital and treated herself to a box of doughnuts (甜甜圈). Years would pass before she realized she had to grow up ---again---and take control of her diabetes, not let it control her. Only then did she kick her three-pack-a-day cigarette habit, overcome her addiction to alcohol, and begin to follow a balanced diet.
Although her disease has affected her eyesight and forced her to the sidelines of the dance floor, she refuses to fall into self-pity. “Everybody on earth can ask, "why me?" about something or other,” she insists. “It doesn"t do any good. No one is immune (免疫的) to heartache, pain, and disappointments. Sometimes we can make things better by helping others. I"ve come to realize the importance of that as I"ve grown up this second time. I want to speak out and be as helpful as I can be.”

小题1:D
小题2:B
小题3:A
小题4:A
小题5:C
解析
试题分析：文章大意：玛丽·摩尔曾经是一个成功的女演员，后来她患了糖尿病，当初她自暴自弃，但后来她能做到冷静面对。她的第二部作品就是写她与糖尿病的抗争，写作所得都用于一个国际性糖尿病研究组织。她体会到了，帮助他人，能让自己生活得更好，因此，她会尽可能去帮助他人。
小题1:D根据题目中feel regretful到文中去找信息源。第二段Only recently, when she began to write Growing Up Again，did she regret ignoring her mom, “I don’t know how to use a computer,” she admits. 只是最近，当她开始写“Growing Up Again”时，她才后悔未重视妈妈（的话），“我不知道如何使用电脑”她说。结合第一段中妈妈建议她学打字课程，可判断选D项，她未听从妈妈的建议。
小题2:B细节理解题。抓住题干中before1995这个时间。根据第三段: Unlike her 1995 autobiography(自传), After All, her second book is less about life as an award-winning actress and more about living with diabetes (糖尿病)., 与她1995年写的自传不同，她的第二本书更多的是写她与糖尿病斗争，而较少写她作为一个获奖女演员的生活。 可知她1995以前未曾有两本书出版，A项错误。由前面这句话也可以知道，她1995年的自传中写得更多的是她作为一个获奖女演员的生活。由此推知，1995年以前，她获过很多奖，结合第二段In her career, Mary won many awards.，可知，B项正确。至于C项，文中提到她不会用电脑，没说她什么时候学会了，推不出1995年以前她就会用电脑了。关于D 项，她支持JDRF的资金，是她写第二本书的钱，而第二本书应该是在1995年以后写的。四个答案全部考虑以后，可以确定正确答案为：B。
小题3:A细节理解题。根据题干中Mary’s second book到文中去找信息源。与上题所找为同一信息源。第三段…her second book is less about life as an award-winning actress and more about living with diabetes (糖尿病). 由此句可知，第二本书主要是关于她与糖尿病的抗争。故选A。
小题4:A细节理解题。根据题干中the life-changing news 到文中去找信息源。第四段when she received two pieces of life-changing news. First, she had lost the baby she was carrying, and second, tests showed that she had diabetes.由此处可知，她得到两个改变她生活的消息，一个是把孩子带丢了，还有一个是她得了糖尿病。接下去到文中继续找她得到这两个消息以后的做法。In a childlike act，she left the hospital and treated herself to a box of doughnuts (甜甜圈).Years would pass before she realized she had to grow upagain—and take control of her diabetes，not let it control her. 她的做法，如同一个孩子，她离开了医院，给自己买了一箱子的甜甜圈，由此可知C想要获得治疗，D表现得像个成年人这两个选项肯定是错的。根据糖尿病人不能吃甜食这个常识可以判断，她吃的不是均衡的饮食，因此B项也是错误的。A 失去控制，用来描述她的不顾自己患有糖尿病拼命吃甜食的行为比较恰当。因此，可判断选A项。
小题5:C推理判断题。根据最后一段中的Mary Moore 所说的话“Sometimes we can make things better by helping others. I"ve come to realize the importance of that as I"ve grown up this second time. I want to speak out and be as helpful as I can be.”有时，我们可以通过帮助他人而使事情变得更好。我意识到了这一点，因为我已经第二次长大了。我想要大声地说出来，我想要尽可能地帮助他人。可知她想尽可能地去帮助他人，故选C项。

“Oh?” Mom said, “that"s Mama"s quilt.”

The weather was fine. But the higher they drove, the more slippery the road became. Rounding a sharp U-turn, Andersen saw a heavy truck off the road and immediately hit his brakes. In a minute, the car was going at 25 miles per hour down the mountain before falling down from a ten-foot dam into the extremely cold Logan River.
The crash had broken a few windows, and within seconds, the car was filled with water. “It was frightening that we were going fast into deep water,” remembers Andersen, a soft-spoken manager.
Having lost all sense of direction, Andersen began to search the freezing water for the kids. Mia had been right next to him in the front seat; now, in the blackness, he couldn’t find her. “I thought, if I don’t get out, maybe none of us are going to get out.” Andersen got out of his seat belt, swam through a broken window, and, deeply and quickly, breathed air at the surface. That’s when he saw a group of men, about ten in all, appear at the top of the dam. One after another, they rushed down into the water. Helping onto safety all the three children, they began to shout at the father, “Who else is in the car？”
Andersen says respectfully, “It was like the sight of angels.”

So the man decided to help the butterfly. He cut off the remaining bit of the cocoon so that the butterfly could come out easily. But to his surprise, the butterfly got a heavy body and very small wings when it came out of the cocoon.
The man continued to watch the butterfly because he expected that the body would grow smaller at any moment and the wings would become larger and be able to fly. But neither happened. In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling（爬）around with a heavy body and small wings. It was never able to fly.
The man was in his kindness, but he did not understand the nature rules. Before the butterfly came out of the cocoon, fluid（流体）from its body must be forced into its wings, and then it would be ready for flying. It must have a hard struggle to get through the small opening to get its freedom from the cocoon.
Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our life. If God allowed us to go through our life without any difficulties, it would make us fail. We would not be as strong as we could have been; we could never fly.
小题1:What was the butterfly doing at the beginning of the story?
| A．It was trying to make a cocoon for itself. |
| B．It was struggling to get out of its cocoon. |
| C．It was flying among the trees in the forest. |
| D．It was crawling around quietly on the ground. |
| A．to take the butterfly home |
| B．to help the butterfly come out easily |
| C．to kill the butterfly |
| D．to stop the butterfly growing bigger |
| A．patient but cruel | B．careful and wise | C．kind but unwise | D．brave and funny |
| A．Struggles are sometimes necessary in our life |
| B．Nothing is difficult if we put our heart into it |
| C．Every good deed will come back with a good result |
| D．The greatest happiness in the world is to help others |
| A．The love for the cocoon. | B．The joy of helping each other |
| C．The lesson of the cocoon | D．The expectation for the butterfly |
Mr. Flowers’ glass-houses were very near to a middle school. Boys of around thirteen of age were often tempted (引诱) to throw a stone or two at one of Mr. Flowers’ glass-houses. So Mr. Flowers did his best to be in or near his glass-houses at the beginning and end of the school day.
But it was not always possible to be on watch at those times. Mr. Flowers had tried in many ways to protect his glass, but nothing that he had done had been useful. He had been to school to report to the headmaster; but this had not done any good. He had tried to drive away the boys that threw stones into his garden; but the boys could run faster than he could, and they laughed at him from far away. He had even picked up all the stones that he could find around his garden, so that the boys would have nothing to throw; but they soon found others.
At last Mr. Flowers had a good idea. He put up a large notice made of good, strong wood, some meters away from the glass-houses. On it he had written the words: DO NOT THROW STONES AT THIS NOTICE. After this, Mr. Flowers had no further trouble; the boys were much more tempted to throw stones at the notice than at the glass-houses.
小题1:It was Mr. Flowers’ hope to ________.
| A．build glass-houses in his free time |
| B．grow the Rose of the Year in a silver cup |
| C．win a silver cup for growing a rose of a new color |
| D．grow a rose with the longest name. |
| A．throw stones at Mr. Flowers’ glass-house |
| B．throw stones at Mr. Flowers from their school |
| C．be in or near by Mr. Flowers’ glass-houses |
| D．play with Mr. Flowers near his glass-houses |
| A．at times when school-boys were walking near them |
| B．all the school day when there were no boys about |
| C．where he could not be seen by the boys passing |
| D．in his free time at the beginning and end of the school day |
| A．be on watch in his free time | B．ask the headmaster for help |
| C．pick up all the stones around his garden | D．do all the above |
| A．write some words on the glass |
| B．put up a large notice to cover his glass-houses |
| C．give the boys something else to throw stones at |
| D．send for policemen |
