阅读理解。     My husband hasn"t stopped laughing about a funny thing that happened to me. It"s funny now but it wasn"t
at that time.
     Last Friday, after doing all the family shopping in town, I wanted a rest before catching the train, so I
bought a newspaper and some chocolate and went into the station coffee shop-that cheap self-service place
with long tables to sit at. I put my heavy bag down on the floor, put the newspaper and chocolate on the table
to keep a place, and went to get a cup of coffee.
     When I came back with the coffee, there was someone in the next seat. It was one of those wild-looking
youngsters, with dark glasses and torn clothes, and hair coloured bright red at the front. Not so unusual these
days.What did suprise me was that he"d started to eat my chocolate!
     Naturally, I was annoyed (苦恼). However, to avoid (避免) trouble-and really I was rather uneasy about
him-I just looked down at the front page of the newspaper, tasted my coffee and took a bit of chocolate. The
boy looked at me closely. Then he took a second piece of my chocolate. I could hardly believe it. Still I didn"t
start an argument. When he took a third piece, I felt more angry than uneasy. I thought, "Well, I shall have the
last piece." and I got it.
     The boy gave me a strange look, then stood up. As he left he shouted out, "This woman"s crazy!"
Everybody stared. That was embarrassing enough, but it was worse when I finished my coffee and got ready
to leave. My face turned red-as red as his hair-when I realized I"d made a mistake. It wasn"t my chocolate that
I"d been taking. There was mine, unopened, just under my newspaper. 1. Last Friday the writer ____. A. went shopping with her husband
B. had been very busy and needed some time to recover
C. wanted a newspaper and some chocolate to take home to her family
D. bought a newspaper and some chocolate so that she could keep a place at the table 2. When the writer saw the boy go on eating the chocolate, she felt ____. A. too uneasy to start an argument
B. too shy to look in the boy"s direction
C. more and more disappointed at losing the chocolate
D. more and more angry with the boy 3. What does the underlined word "embarrassing" mean most probably? A. Amusing.
B. Surprising.
C. Socially uncomfortable.
D. Annoying. 4. Which of the following is TRUE? A. The writer took only one piece of the boy"s chocolate.
B. The way the boy was dressed is common nowadays.
C. The wild-looking boy was very rude to the woman.
D. The writer finds what happened in the coffee shop isn"t funny at all.

阅读理解。     Even before my father left us, my mother had to go back to work to support our family. Once I came out
of the kitchen, complaining, "Mom, I can"t peel potatoes. I have only one hand."
     Mom never looked up from sewing. "You get yourself into that kitchen and peel those potatoes," she told
me. "And don"t ever use that as an excuse for anything again!"
     In the second grade, our teacher lined up my class on the playground and had each of us race across the
monkey bars, swinging from one high steel rod to the next. When it was my turn, I shook my head. Some kids
behind me laughed, and I went home crying.
     That night I told Mom about it. She hugged me, and I saw her "we"ll see about that" look. The next
afternoon, she took me back to school. On the deserted playground, Mom looked carefully at the bars.
     "Now, pull up with your right arm," she advised. She stood by as I struggled to lift myself with my right
hand until I could hook the bar with my other elbow. Day after day we practiced, and she praised me for every
rung I reached. I"ll never forget the next time, crossing the rungs, I looked down at the kids who were standing
with their mouths open.
     One night, after a dance at my new junior high, I lay in bed sobbing. I could hear Mom come into my room."
Mom," I said, weeping, "none of the boys would dance with me."
     For a long time, I didn"t hear anything. Then she said, "Oh, honey, someday you"ll be beating those boys
off with a bat." Her voice was faint and cracking. I peeked out from my covers to see tears running down her
cheeks. Then I knew how much she suffered on my behalf. She had never let me see her tears. 1. Which of the following expressions can be used most suitably to describe Mom"s attitude when she made
    the child peel potatoes? A. Cruel.
B. Serious.
C. Strict.
D. Cold. 2. From the passage,we know monkey bars can help a child train ____. A. the skill to throw and catch things
B. the speed of one"s hand movement
C. the strength and skill to hang and sway
D. the bodily skill to rotate (旋转) round a bar 3. What does the sentence "I saw her "we"ll see about that" look" imply (暗示)? A. Mom believed every aim could be achieved if you stuck to it.
B. The race across monkey bars was not difficult enough for a child to give up.
C. Mom was determined to prove she herself was better than the teacher.
D. What the child had said brought Mom great attraction and curiosity. 4. When the child looked down at the kids, they were standing with their mouths open because _____. A. they felt sorry for what they had done before
B. they were afraid the author might fall off and get hurt
C. they wanted to see what the author would do on the bars
D. they were astonished to find the author"s progress 5. The most probable conclusion we can draw after reading the passage is ____. A. the last incident was sad enough to make Mom weep

     Having returned from her round trip, the angry woman stood outside the ticket office of the station. "The
railway owes me£12," she said to Harry Jenks, the young man working at the office. "You sold me a ticket
for May 22nd, but there was no ship from Jersey that night. So my daughter and I had to stay in a hotel. It
cost me 12."
     Harry was worried. He remembered selling the woman a return ticket. "Come into the office, Madam," he
said politely. "I"ll just check the Jersey timetable for May 22nd."
     The woman and her little girl followed him inside. She was quite right, as Harry soon discovered. There
was no sailing on May 22nd. How could he have made such a careless mistake? He couldn"t have sold her a
ticket for that day. Wondering what to do, he smiled at the child. "You look sunburnt," he said to her. "Did
you have a nice holiday in Jersey?"
     "Yes," she answered, shyly. "The beach was lovely. And I can swim too."
     "That"s fine," said Harry. "My little girl can"t swim a bit yet. Of course, she"s only three..."
     "I"m four," the child said proudly. "I"ll be four and a half."
     Harry turned to the mother. "I remember your ticket, Madam," he said. "But you didn"t get one for your
daughter, did you?"
     "Er, well..." the woman looked at the child. "I mean...she hasn"t started school yet. She"s only four."
     "A four-year-old child must have a ticket, Madam. A child"s return ticket to Jersey costs...let me see...
£13. 50. So if the railway pays your hotel, you will owe the railway 1.50. The law is the law, but since the
fault was mine..."
     The woman stood up, took the child"s hand and left the office.
1. The woman was angry because _____.
A. she couldn"t use the ticket for her round trip
B. she had to return home a day earlier than she had planned
C. she spent more money than she had expected
D. Harry had sold her a ticket to Jersey where there was no sailing
2. Harry was worried because _____.
A. the woman was angry with him
B. he had not done his work properly
C. the Jersey timetable was wrong
D. the little girl didn"t have a return ticket
3. Harry started talking to the little girl _____.
A. because he was in difficulty and did not know what to do
B. because he had a little girl about the same age as this girl
C. because he wanted to be friendly to the little girl who looked so nice
D. when he suddenly realized that he could find a way out from the little girl
4. When Harry said,"The law is the law, but since the fault was mine..." he meant that _____.
A. they must follow it without other choice, even though the fault was his
B. he had to be strict with the woman because of the law, although he didn"t want to
C. the woman had to pay him£1.50 and the railway would pay her for the hotel
D. she should pay£1.50, but he had made a mistake, so she could go without paying
5. The woman left the office without saying anything because _____.
A. she wanted to go home and get money for the child"s ticket
B. she was so angry that she didn"t want to have anything more to do with the young man
C. she was moved by Harry"s kindness
D. she knew she would have to pay the railway if she insisted
