Robert had just moved into the street and he felt strange that he was not wanted. He knew that perhaps the other boys were trying to get an idea of what kind of boy he was. This did not help to make him less lonely. He was new and he had to be tested. Still, proving himself would not be all that easy. He did not want to run with bad boys or get into something against the law to prove that he was strong. No! He must show what he was made of in a more helpful way. That was when he got the idea. The next day was Saturday. He knew that most of the boys would be down on the playground and choose upsides for the Saturday game. Robert knew he could play well and what just might be enough to prove he was strong—and to make friends with them.

He arrived early and did his step exercises. He shot (投擲) the ball some times and did some other exercises—the most difficult and most wonderful in basketball. Then the boys came. Robert went through what he had done before the game and showed what he could do.

No one said a word. The boys just looked at each other, and thought about it. In the end, when it was all over, the biggest of the group just smiled and shook his head. Robert knew he had made it.

1.What does “This did not help to make him less lonely” mean?

A. Robert felt more lonely because the other boys wanted to test him.

B. Robert did not feel lonely in fact.

C. Robert felt as lonely as before when the other boys tried to find out what kind of boy he was.

D. The other boys did not want to make Robert feel less lonely.

2.When did Robert decide to prove himself by playing basketball?

A. After he had thought about the two wrong ways.

B. Long before he moved into the street.

C. When the other boys came down to the playground.

D. As soon as he showed what he was made of in front of the other boys.

3.What did the biggest of the group mean by shaking his head?

A. He did not want to say anything about what Robert had done.

B. He had not thought Robert could play so wonderfully.

C. He did want to make friends with Robert.

D. He did not think Robert played basketball well.

In today’s world many people seem to be hungry for money. Some of them even lose their lives for it. Money does have its most useful effect (影響) on the poor,but once a person has a rich life,a lot more money doesn’t mean more happiness.

If money was everything,all millionaires (百萬富翁) would have true love, true friendship,good health and a long life. However,this is not always true. Many of them are not happy, and die earlier.

Nothing else is more pleasant than the three words which are “I love you”. But can love be bought?I’m afraid not. Love means to give,not to take. To every person,health and long life are probably the most precious(寶貴的) things. Well,can health and a long life be bought with money?The answer is “No”.

Of all the longest living people in the world,few of them are millionaires. True friendship can’t be bought either. In a word,Where money is worshiped(崇拜),money can cause brothers to quarrel,lovers to hate,strangers to fight and so on. No matter how much money you have,it is still not enough to make you a happy person, if you have no one to laugh with,no one to cry for.

1.According to the passage,which of the following do you think is right?

A.Money is everything.

B.Money isn’t necessary.

C.Money is important,but not the most important.

D.With no money,with no success.

2.Which sentence of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A.If you haven’t much money,you can’t get more happiness.

B.You may live a long life even if you are poor.

C.Every year many people die in the world because their family is poor.

A.愛意味著給予,而不能帶走。

B.愛是可以得到的,不要走開。
