Born into a farmer’s family, life was not easy when I was a kid. We were so poor that we often did not know where our next meal was coming from. I had to sell cabbages at the marketplace to support my family.

A storyteller once came to the marketplace, and I went to listen to him. My mother was unhappy with me for forgetting my job. But that night, while she was making clothes for us under the weak light of an oil lamp, I couldn't help retelling stories I'd heard that day. She listened impatiently at first, since in her eyes professional (職業(yè)的) storytellers were smooth-talking men—nothing good ever came out of their mouths. But slowly she was attracted by my retold stories, and from that day on, she never gave me any task on market days, unspoken agreement to enjoy new stories. As a repayment（回報）for Mother's kindness and a way to show off my memory, I'd retell the stories for her in lively detail. Soon, she wasn't the only member of my audience, which later included my elder sisters, my aunts, even my stubborn grandmother.

I knew she was worried about me. Talkative kids are not well thought of in our village, for they can bring trouble to themselves and to their families when they talk too much. Mother often reminded me not to talk so much, wanting me to be a silent and modest teenager. However, my natural desire（渴望）to talk never went away, and that is what makes my name – Mo Yan, which means ‘no speaking’. This strong wish to talk also improved my ability to express myself, which is important for writers who are also considered as storytellers.

1.Mo Yan lived a/an ________ life when he was young.

A. difficult B. colourful C. easy D. rich

2.From the second paragraph, we can learn that ________.

A. little Mo Yan was interested in selling vegetables

B. his mother was attracted by the retold story at first

C. his mother didn’t let him listen to the new stories again

D. little Mo Yan had quite a good memory

3.Why did his mother dislike the professional storytellers?

A. Because she thought they never said anything good.

B. Because she thought they couldn’t make much money.

C. Because she thought they would affect Mo Yan’s schoolwork.

D. Because she thought most people didn’t like listening to stories.

4.In Mo Yan’s opinion, a writer should be a ________ child when they were young.

A. silent B. modest

C. talkative D. trouble-making

5.Which is the best title（標題）of the passage?

A. My Unlucky Childhood

B. A Storyteller’s Childhood

C. My Kind Grandmother

D. More talking leads to success

任務(wù)型閱讀 根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容完成表格中所缺信息，在答題卷上相應(yīng)的橫線上填寫答案，每空限填一個單詞。

Whenever we meet with difficulty or failure, teachers, parents or others often say to us or perhaps we say to ourselves, ―Never give up.

These can be encouraging words and words of determination. A person who believes in himself will keep trying to reach his goal no matter how many times he fails. In my opinion, the quality of determination to succeed is an important one to have. Therefore, I believe that we should never give up.

One reason is that if we give up too easily, we will rarely achieve anything. It is not unusual for us to fail in our first attempt at something new, so we should not feel disappointed and should try again. Besides, if we always give up when we fail, we will not be able to develop new skills and grow.

Another reason we should never give up is that we can learn from our mistakes so that we can not make the same ones. If we do not try again, the lesson we have learned is wasted. Finally, we should never give up because as we work to reach our goals, we develop confidence, and this confidence can help us succeed in other areas of our lives. If we never challenge ourselves, we will begin to doubt our abilities.

In short, it is important that we do not give up when working for our goals. Whether we succeed in the end or not, we will learn something, and what we learn will help us to become better and more confident. Furthermore, if we give up, we have no chance of attaining our goals any more, but if we keep making great efforts, there is always a chance that we will succeed one day.

Possible meanings and the author’s opinions

●The words——Never give up can 1. others or oneself and express one’s determination.

●A person who wants to succeed should have the quality. So we should never give up.

The 2.

●If we give up too easily, maybe we will achieve 3. , so when we fail in our first attempt at something new, we should not disappoint ourselves but try again.

●Always giving up means that we will not be able to make any progress.

●Never giving up will make us learn from the mistakes we’ve made before and learn the lesson so as not to make the same mistakes.

●To reach our goals and develop the confidence which can help us4. ourselves, so we must not give up but challenge ourselves.

Conclusion

If you give up, you will have no 5. of reaching your goals. Never give up and you will attain your goals sooner or later.
