It was another day to jump rope in gym class. Lynn and Mike turned the long rope in big, slow circles. The whole class hurried to get in line to wait for their turn to jump. Millie stood at the back of the line and frowned.

Nick went first. He watched the rope and ran in at just the right time. Everyone counted. He made it all the way to 30 jumps. One after another, the kids watched the rope, ran in and jumped. Then it was Millie’s turn. She watched the rope go around and around, but she didn’t move. She felt like everyone was looking at her.

Millie’s friends cheered: “Go, Millie, go!”

Millie’s face turned red. At last, she gave it a try, but she failed.

The truth was that Millie had been jumping rope at home every day. With a short rope, she could jump 100 times without missing. She just didn’t know how to run in and start jumping with a long rope. Since she was the only kid on her street, there was no one to help turn the long rope.

Just then, Ms. Miles, the gym teacher, brought out a bunch of short jump ropes.

“Let’s see how long each one of you can jump without missing.” she said as she gave each student a short rope. “Ready, set. Go!”

Millie smiled for the first time ever in gym class. As she jumped, she sang rhymes quickly to herself.

After a while, Millie realized that everyone was cheering. “Go. Millie, go!”

She was the only one still jumping rope! The surprise almost made her miss a step, but she kept going. When at last she was too tired to go on, she stopped. The whole class cheered. Everyone was looking at her and smiling. Millie smiled back!

閱讀理解,根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容選擇最佳答案。

Andy rode slowly on his way to school, day-dreaming about the fishing trip that his father had promised him. He was so busy dreaming about all the fish he would catch that he paid no attention to everything else around him.

He rode along until a strange sound stopped him.. He looked up to the sky. What he saw frightened him. A huge group of bees filled the sky like dark cloud and seemed to be flying angrily towards him.

With no time to waste Andy ran off in the opposite direction, as quickly as he could. As the bees came closer, his fear increased. Andy knew that he was sensitive(敏感的) to bee stings (蜇). Last time a sting had put him in hospital—and that was only one bee sting! He had to stay in bed for two whole days. Suddenly, his father’s words came to him. “When you are in a dangerous situation, don’t panic. Stay calm, use your brain and think your ways out of it. ”

On a nearby hill, he could see smoke from the chimney(煙囪) of the Nelson family home. “Bees don’t like smoke,” he thought. “They couldn’t get into the house.” Andy ran towards the Nelson house, but the bees were getting closer. Andy knew he could not reach the house in time. He guessed that the bees would catch up with him soon.

Suddenly, he saw a small pond used by Mr. Nelson to water his vegetable garden. He jumped off his bike and into the cool water, disappearing below the surface and away from the bees. A few minutes later, Andy came up for air and noticed the bees had gone. He walked up the hill and rang the doorbell. Mr. Nelson took him inside and called his mother.

“You’ll really need that fishing break to help you recover(恢復(fù)),” laughed his mother. “Thank goodness you didn’t panic!” But Andy did not hear her. He was dreaming once again of the fish he would catch tomorrow.

1.Andy was attacked by a huge group of bees on his way to ________.

A. his home B. school

C. the Nelson house D. a nearby hill

2.Andy didn’t notice the bees because ________.

A. he was calling his mother

B. he was listening to a strange sound

C. he was going fishing with his father

D. he was lost in the thought of the fishing trip

3.The bee stings would ________.

A. make Andy in hospital

B. help Andy remember his father

C. improve his riding skills

D. happen near Nelson family home

4.The word “panic” in the 3rd paragraph here means “_________”.

A. give advice B. run away

C. feel frightened D. give up

5.Which of the following can best describe Andy’s escape(逃脫) from the bees? ________

A. No pains, no gains.

B. Once bitten, twice afraid.

C. Where there is a will, there is a way.

D. In time of danger, one’s mind works fast.
