阅读理解。     My husband is a born shopper. He loves to look at things and to touch them. He likes to compare
prices between the same items in different shops. He would never think of buying anything without
looking around in several different shops. On the other hand, I"m not a shopper. I think shopping is
boring and unpleasant. If I like something and I have enough money to take it, I buy it at once. I never
look around for a good price or a better deal. Of course my husband and I never go shopping together.
Doing shopping together would be too painful for both of us. When it comes to shopping, we go our
different ways.
      Sometimes I ask my son Jimmy to buy some food in the shop not far from our home. But he is always
absent-minded. This was his story.
     One day I said to him, " I hope you won"t forget what I have told you to buy." " No," said Jimmy. "I
won"t forget. You want three oranges , six eggs and a pound of meat."
     He went running down the street to the shop. As he ran, he said to himself over and over again, "three
oranges , six eggs and a pound of meat."
     In the beginning he remember everything but he stopped several times. Once he saw two men fighting
outside a clothes shop until a policeman stopped them. One of them was badly hurt. Then he stopped to
give ten cents to a beggar. Then he met some of his friends and he played with them for a while. When he
reached the shop, he had forgotten everything except six eggs.
     As he walked home, his face became sadder and sadder. When he saw me he said, "I"m sorry, Mum.
I have forgotten to buy oranges and the meat. I only remembered to buy six eggs, but I"ve dropped three
of them."1.The husband likes shopping because _______.A. he has much money.
B. he likes the shops.
C. he likes to compare the prices between the same items.
D. he has nothing to do but shopping.2. They never go shopping together because_______.A. their ways of shopping are quite different      
B. they hate each other.
C. they needn"t buy anything for the family      
D. they don"t have time for it.3. Jimmy can"t do the shopping well because _______.A. he is young              
B. he is absent-minded
C. he often loses his money    
D. he doesn"t like shopping4. Jimmy didn"t buy what his mother wanted because_______.A. the shop was closed that day        
B. the policeman stopped him
C. he forgot some of them              
D. he gave all the money to the beggar

阅读理解。     In the fall of 1985, I was a bright-eyed girl heading off to Howard University, aiming at a legal career and
dreaming of sitting on a Supreme Court bench somewhere. Twenty-one years later I am later I am still a bright-
eyed dreamer and one with quite a different tale to tell.
     My grandma, an amazing woman, graduated from college at the age of 65. She was the first in our family
to reach that goal. But one year after I started college, she developed cancer. I made the choice to withdraw
from college to care for her. It meant that school and my personal dream would have to wait.
     Then I got married with another dream: building my family with a combination of adopt and biological
children. In 1999, we adopted our first son. To lay eyes on him was fantastic and very emotional. A year later
came our second adopted boy. Then followed son No.3. In 2003, I gave birth to another boy.
     You can imagine how fully occupied I became, raising four boys under the age of 81. Our home was a
complete zoo-a joyous zoo. Not surprising, I never did make it back to college full-time. But I never gave up
on the dream either. I had only one choice: to find a way. That meant talking as few as one class each semester. 
     The hardest part was feeling guilty about the time I spent away from the boys. They often wanted me to
stay home with them. There certainly were times I wanted to quit, But I knew I should set an example for
them to follow through the rest of their lives.
     In 2007, I graduated from the University of North Carolina. It took me over 21 years to get my college
degree!
     I am not special, just single-minded. It always struck me that when you"re looking at a big challenge from
the outside it looks huge, but when you"re in the midst of it, it just seems normal. Everything you want won"t
arrive in your life on one day. It"s a process. Remember: little steps add up to big dreams. 1. When the author went to Howard University, her dream was to be _____.A. a writer
B. a teacher
C. a judge
D. a doctor 2. Why did the author quit school in her second year of college? A. She wanted to study by herself.
B. She fell in love and got married.
C. She suffered from a serious illness.
D. She decided to look after her grandma. 3. What does the author mostly want to tell us in the last paragraph? A. Failure is the mother of success.
B. Little by little, one goes far.
C. Every coin has two sides.
D. Well begun, half done. 4. Which of the following can best describe the author? A. Caring and determined.
B. Honest and responsible.
C. Ambitious and sensitive.
D. Innocent and single-minded.

阅读理解。     I began to grow up that winter night when my parents and I were returning from my aunt"s house, and
my mother said that we might soon be leaving for America. We were on the bus then. I was crying, and
some people on the bus were turning around to look at me. I remember that I could not bear the thought
of never hearing again the radio program for school children to which I listened every morning.  
     I do not remember myself crying for this reason again. In fact, I think I cried very little when I was
saying goodbye to my friends and relatives. When we were leaving I thought about all the places I was
going to see-the strange and magical places I had known only from books and pictures. The country I
was leaving never to come back was hardly in my head then.  
     The four years that followed taught me the importance of optimism (乐观主义), but the idea did not
come to me at once. For the first two years in New York I was really lost-having to study in three
schools as a result of family moves. I did not quite know what I was or what I should be. Mother
remarried, and things became even more complex for me. Some time passed before my stepfather and I
got used to each other. I was often sad, and saw no end to "the hard times."
     My responsibilities in the family increased a lot since I knew English better than everyone else at home. I wrote letters, filled out forms, translated at interviews with immigration officers, took my grandparents to
the doctor and translated there, and even discussed telephone bills with company representatives.  
     From my experiences I have learned one important rule: Almost all common troubles eventually go
away!   Something good is certain to happen in the end when you do not give up, and just wait a little! I
believe that my life will turn out all right, even though it will not be that easy.  1. How did the author get to know America? A. From her relatives.          
B. From her mother.
C. From books and pictures.      
D. From radio programs.2. For the first two years in New York, the author        .  A. often lost her way                
B. did not think about her future
C. studied in three different schools    
D. got on well with her stepfather 3. What can we learn about the author from Paragraph 4? A. She worked as a translator.
B. She attended a lot of job interviews.
C. She paid telephone bills for her family.
D. Her good command of English helped her family.4. The author believes that       . A. her future will be free from troubles
B. it is difficult to learn to become patient
C. there are more good things than bad things
D. good things will happen if one keeps trying
