     I will never forget the year I was about twelve years old. My mother told us that we would not be   1   
Christmas gifts because there was not enough money. I felt sad and thought, "What would I say when the

     When I was growing up in America, I was ashamed of my mother"s Chinese English. Because of her
English, she was often treated unfairly. People in department stores, at banks, and at restaurants did not take
her seriously, did not give her good service, pretended not to understand her, or even acted as if they did not
hear her.  
     My mother has realized the limitations of her English as well. When I was fifteen, she used to have me
call people on phone to pretend I was she. I was forced to ask for information or even to yell at people who
had been rude to her. One time I had to call her stockbroker (股票经纪人). I said in an adolescent (青春期的)
voice that was not very convincing, "This is Mrs. Tan.."
     And my mother was standing beside me, whispering loudly, "Why he don"t send me check already two
week late." And then, in perfect English I said:"I"m getting rather concerned. You agreed to send the check
two weeks ago, but it hasn"t arrived."
     Then she talked more loudly. "What he want? I come to New York tell him front of his boss." And so I
turned to the stockbroker again, "I can"t tolerate any more excuse. If I don"t receive the check immediately,
I am going to have to speak to your manager when I am in New York next week." The next week we ended
up in New York. While I was sitting there red-faced, my mother, the real Mrs.Tan, was shouting to his boss
in her broken English.
     When I was a teenager, my mother"s broken English embarrassed me. But now, I see it differently. To me,
my mother"s English is perfectly clear, perfectly natural. It is my mother tongue. Her language, as I hear it, is
vivid, direct, and full of observation and wisdom. It was the language that helped shape the way I saw things,
expressed ideas, and made sense of the world.
1. Why was the author"s mother poorly served?
[     ]
A. She was unable to speak good English.
B. She was often misunderstood.
C. She was not clearly heard.
D. She was not very polite.
2. From Paragraph 2, we know that the author was _____.
[     ]
A. good at pretending
B. rude to the stockbroker
C. ready to help her mother
D. unwilling to phone for her mother
3. After the author made the phone call, _____.
[     ]
A. they forgave the stockbroker
B. they failed to get the check
C. they went to New York immediately
D. they spoke to their boss at once
4. What does the author think of her mother"s English now?
[     ]
A. It confuses her.
B. It embarrasses her.
C. It helps her understand the world.
D. It helps her tolerate rude people.

     I was very disappointed not to be able to go to the jazz concert last Friday. The announcement in the paper
said that you could buy tickets at the theater box office in Richland Hills any day between 10:00 and 4:00. Since
I work from 9 o"clock to 5:30, the only time I could go to the theater was during my 45-minute lunch break.
Unfortunately, the theater is on the other side of the town, and the bus service between my office and Richland
Hills is not very good. But if you are lucky, you can make the round trip in 45 minutes. Last Monday, I stood at
the bus stop for fifteen minutes waiting for a bus. By the time I saw one come around the corner, there was not
enough time left to make the trip-so I gave up and went back to the office. The same thing happened on Tuesda
y, and again on Wednesday. On Thursday, my luck changed, I got on a bus right away and arrived at the theatre
in exactly twenty minutes. When I got there, however, I found a long line of people at the box office. I heard
one man say he had been waiting in line for over an hour. Realizing I would not have enough time to wait in line,
I caught the next bus and headed back across the town. By Friday I realized my only hope was to make the trip
by taxi. It was expensive, but I felt it would be worth hearing the concert. The trip by taxi only took 10 minutes,
but it felt like an hour to me. When I got to the theatre, I was relieved to see that nobody was waiting in line.
The reason, I quickly discovered, was that they had already sold all the tickets.
1. The writer is probably _____.
[     ]
A. worker
B. a college teacher
C. manager of a company
D. a clerk
2. He learned _____ that there would be a concert last Friday.
[     ]
A. from his friends
B. from one of his colleagues
C. over the radio
D. from the newspaper
3. He could go and buy the ticket _____.
[     ]
A. any day before work hours
B. both before and after work hours
C. only during lunch time
D. on Saturday and Sunday
4. The word "relieved" in the last two sentences may best be replaced by "_____".
[     ]
A. surprised
B. pleased
C. puzzled
D. sorry
5. The story is about _____.
[     ]
A. a good concert
B. someone enjoying a good concert
C. someone trying to buy concert tickets for his friends
D. someone"s disappointment at not being able to go to the concert

     This is a true story that happened in Japan. In order to repair a house with a history of 10 years, someone
in Japan tore open the walls (Japanese houses normally have a hollow space between the wooden walls.)
     While painting the walls, he found that there was a lizard   1   there because a nail from outside had been
hammered into one of its feet. Seeing this, he felt pity and at the same time   2  . When he checked the nail,
he found it was nailed 10 years ago when the house was first built.
     What happened? The lizard had survived in such a   3   for 10 years-in a dark wall partition for 10 years
without moving! It was incredible. He wondered how this lizard had survived for 10 years without moving
a single step-since its foot was nailed!
     So, he stopped his work and   4   the lizard: what has it been doing and what has it been   5  . Later, he
didn"t know from where   6   lizard appeared, with food in its mouth… AHHH! He was astonished and touched
deeply. The lizard that was stuck by the nail had been fed by this   7   lizard. Just imagine it had been doing
this for 10 tiresome years,   8   giving up hope for its partner!
     Before hearing the story, I watched a program on a father who kept digging in the ruins caused by an
earthquake for 38 hours before finding his son, despite the dangers of fires and aftershocks. He talked about
his   9  to his son: No matter what happens, I"ll always be there for you!
     What beautiful love that occurred between both humans and such  10  creatures as lizards! The relationship
between the two lizards remains unknown,  11  no matter what it is, the love between them has done a  12 .
So never abandon your loved ones.
