So the boy   33  to help the butterfly, thinking the butterfly might be   34 .He took a pair of scissors and cut the hole   35 .The butterfly came out of the cocoon but it   36 a little different. It had a weak body and small, thin   37 .The butterfly didn’t start to fly. In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling(爬行) around with a weak body and thin wings. It was never able to fly.
The boy acted with   38  but he didn’t understand why it could be like this. When a butterfly crawls out of the cocoon, it must struggle. The hard work of   39  out of the cocoon makes the fluid(液體) from the butterfly’s body into its wings. It helps the butterfly be   40  to fly. If the butterfly never has to squeeze(擠壓) itself out of the cocoon, its wings will never get the fluid and it can never fly.
  41  struggles are what we need in our lives. If we lived our lives without any problems, we would never learn or grow. We would not be __42__ we could have been and we would never fly.
In our lives, pain and suffering is the key to all windows, and sometimes even   43  growth, without it , there’s no way of life. We can’t avoid   44  or problems. So, next time you are   45 a problem or difficulty, remember the butterfly. Struggle a little—then fly!

"Can I see my baby?" the happy new mother asked. When the baby was lying in her arms and she moved the cloth to look upon his tiny face, she gasped(吃力地喘著氣). The doctor turned quickly and looked out of the hospital window. The baby had been born without ears. Luckily, time proved that the baby's hearing was perfect. Though the misfortune(不幸)happened to him, he grew into a handsome boy. Yet he felt ashamed when he communicated with others.
“You should get in touch with other young people,” his mother told him, with a kindness in her heart. The boy’s father talked with the family doctor about his ears. “Could nothing be done?” the father asked. “I believe I could give him a pair of outer ears, if they could be got,” the doctor replied.
Two years went by. One day, his father said to the son, “You are going to the hospital, Son. Mother and I have someone who will donate the ears you need, but it’s a secret.” The operation is a big success. Later he married and entered the diplomatic(外交的)service. One day, he asked his father, “Who gave the ears? Who gave me so much? I could never do enough for him or her.”
“You could, my son,” said the father, “but the agreement was that you are not to know…not yet.”
The years kept their secret, but one of the darkest days did come. He stood with his father over his mother’s casket(棺材). Slowly, the father stretched forth(伸出) a hand
and raised the thick, reddish brown hair to reveal the mother had no outer ears.
"Mother said she was glad she never let her hair be cut," his father whispered gently, "and nobody ever thought mother less beautiful, did they?"
小題1:Why did Mother gasp when she saw her newborn baby?
A.Because her son had a tiny face.
B.Because she saw her son crying.
C.Because her son was in her arms.
D.Because her son was born imperfect.
小題2:Who gave the son the ears?
A.His mother.B.His father.C.A doctor.D.A stranger.
小題3:The underlined word “reveal” in the last but one paragraph means “________”.
A.see B.showC.findD.search
小題4:The best title for the passage would be ________.
A.Mother’s hair
B.An unforgettable memory
C.Who gave me the ears?
D.Who is my best respectable person?
小題5:The main purpose of the passage is to tell readers that ________.
A.The secret was kept until the mother died.
B.Real love lies in what is done but not known.
C.The operation on the boy was a great success.
D.The boy entered the diplomatic service when he grew up.

 “BANG!” the door caused a reverberation (回聲). It was just standing there, with father standing on one side, and I on the other side.
We were both in great anger. “Never set foot in this house again!” stormed father. With tears welling up in my eyes, I rushed out of the flat and ran along the street.The street lights were shining, causing rather sad-feeling. I walked around aimlessly.
A young father who held a child in his arms walked past me. I felt as if I saw my childhood from another space: happy and carefree.
But now … I don’t know whether it is because I have grown up or because dad is getting old. We differ in our ways of thinking. He always put his opinions of behavior on me. Whenever I do something wrong, he never admits(容許) it. We are just like two people coming from two different worlds. It feels like there is an iron door between us that can never be opened.
I wandered the streets, without a destination in mind. My heart was frozen on this hot summer night. As I walked on there were fewer and fewer people on the streets, until I had only the street lights to keep me company. When I finally reached the high-rise apartment block in which I lived, I saw that the light was still on.
I thought to myself: “Is father waiting for me, or is he still angry with me?”
In fact, it was nothing. Perhaps, dad was throwing away some of his old stamps. Perhaps he thought they were useless. I never had the courage to tell him that I liked collecting stamps.      
All the lights were off except father’s.
Dad was always like this. Maybe he didn’t know how to express himself. After shouting at me, he never showed any moments of regret. However, after an argument he has the habit of tucking me underneath the covers (掖被子) while I am sleeping.
This was how he always was.He has been a leader for so long that telling everyone else what to do has become his second nature.
The light was still on. “Am I wrong?” I whispered, maybe… With the key in hand, I was as nervous as I had ever been. At last, I decided to open the door. As soon as I opened the door tears ran down my face. I suddenly realized that the iron door that I had imagined between us did not exist at all. Love—it’s second to none!
小題1:Decide which is the best order of the following according to what happened in the passage.
a. I opened the door and entered the house.
b. Sadly I ran out into the street.
c. I reached the place where I lived and saw my house still brightly lit.
d. I thought of my father’s kindness towards me.
e. I walked about in the street without any aim.
A.b-e-d-c-aB.b-e-c-d-aC.b-e-a-c-dD.b-e-c-a-d
小題2:What made the writer think of his childhood?
A.The sight of the street lights.
B.The sight of the empty street.
C.The sight of a father with a child in his arms.
D.The sight of light in his own house.
小題3:What can we infer about the reason why the father often shouts at his son?
A.The father is getting older and older.
B.The son has more fashionable opinions than his father.
C.They usually disagree with each other.
D.The father has got used to being a leader for long.
小題4:What conclusion(結(jié)論)can be drawn after reading the passage?
A.The father treats his son in an unfair way.
B.The father is actually kind to his son.
C.The father is neither kind nor cruel to his son.
D.The father is always finding mistakes with his son.
小題5:Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?
A. The Generation GapB.ASleepless Summer Night

When asked to point out one or two things that are most important to themselves, many put friends ahead of homes, jobs, clothes and cars.
A true friendship carries a long history of experience that determines who we are and keeps us connected. It is a treasure we should prove it. Unfortunately, the better friends you are, the more probably you’ll have disagreements. And the result can be what you don’t want an end to the relationship.
The good news is that most troubled friendships can be mended. First, don’t let your pride get in your way. Most of us can forgive each other when differences are brought out in the open. Second, apologize when you’re wrong ― even if you’ve been wronged. Over the course of friendship, even the best people make mistakes. Sometimes, it may be best if the wronged person takes wrong. Third, see things from your friend’s point of view. And finally, accept that friendships changes as our needs and lifestyles change. Making friends can sometimes seem easy. The hard part is keeping the connections strong during the nature ups and downs that have an effect on all relationships. My suggestion: Consider friendship an honor and a gift, and worth the effort to treasure and nurture(培養(yǎng)).
小題1:The “wronged person” underlined in the text refers to a person _______.
A.who has been mistaken for anotherB.who has been blamed unfairly
C.who has treated friends badlyD.who has admitted his mistakes
小題2:According to the text a friendship can last long only if________.
A.we treat our disagreements wiselyB.we know our friends mistakes
C.we have much in commonD.we have known one another for long
小題3:What should we do if we follow the author’s second suggestion?
A.Stick to our own points of view.
B.Avoid making mistakes.
C.Make an apology first.
D.change our lifestyles.
