As a little boy, there was nothing I liked better than Sunday afternoons at my grandfather's farm in western Pennsylvania. Surrounded by miles of winding stonewalls, the house and farm provided endless hours of fun for a city kid like me.

I can still remember one afternoon when I was eight years old. Since my first visit to the farm, I'd wanted more than anything to be allowed to climb the stonewalls surrounding the farm. My parents would never agree. The walls were old; some stones were missing, others loose and falling into pieces. Still, my wish to climb across those walls grew so strong that finally, one spring afternoon, I summoned (鼓起) all my courage and entered the living room, where the adults had gathered after Sunday dinner.

"I, uh, I want to climb the stonewalls," I said hesitantly. Everyone looked up. "Can I climb the stone walls?" Immediately a chorus went up from the women in the room. "Heavens, no!" they cried, "You'll hurt yourself!" I wasn't too disappointed; the response was just as I'd expected. But before I could leave the room, I was stopped by my grandfather's loud voice. "Now hold on just a minute," I heard him say, "Let the boy climb the stone walls. He has to learn to do things for himself.'

"Go," he said to me, "and come and see me when you get back. ' For the next two and a half hours I climbed those old walls and had the time of my life. Later I met with my grandfather to tell him about my adventure. I'll never forget what he said. "Fred," he said, smiling widely, "you made this day a special day just by being yourself. Always remember: there's only one person in this whole world like you, and I like you as you are."

Many years have passed since then, and today I host the television program Mister Rogers'

Neighborhood, seen by millions of children throughout America. There have been changes over the years, but one thing remains the same: my message to children at the end of almost every visit.

"There's only one person in this whole world like you," the kids can count on hearing my say, "and people can like you as you are."

1.Which of the statements is TRUE according to the passage?

A. As a city kid, Fred was unwilling to go to his grandfather's farm.

B. Fred helped his grandfather build the stonewalls to protect the farm.

C. Fred was sure that his parents would agree with his climbing the stonewalls.

D. Fred' grandfather encouraged him to do things for himself.

2.Why wasn't Fred allowed to climb the stonewalls at first?

A. Because he was too young to climb the stonewalls on his own.

B. Because his parents were very strict with him.

C. Because his family thought it was dangerous to climb the stonewalls.

D. Because his grandpa didn't like him going out.

3.What can we infer from the passage?

A. The TV program Mister Rogers' Neighborhood is popular with children in America.

B. Fred's grandpa wanted Fred to be a host of the TV program.

C. There's only one person in this whole world that likes Fred as he is.

D. When Fred was young, he didn't take his parents' opinions seriously.

When children are little, we make them read aloud, before the teacher and other children, so that

we can be sure they "know" all the words they are reading. This means that when they don't know a word, they are going to make a mistake, right in front of everyone. They may lose face in public. After having taught fifth-grade classes for four years, I decided to try at all costs to rid (消除) them of their fear and dislike of books, and to get them to read oftener and more adventurously (冒險(xiǎn)地).

One day soon after school had started, I said to them, "Now I would like you to read a lot of books this year, but I want you to read them only for pleasure. ! am not going to ask you questions to find out whether you understand the books or not. If you understand enough of a book to enjoy it and want to go on reading it, that's enough for me. Also I'm not going to ask you what words mean."

The children sat amazed and silent. Was this a teacher talking? One girl, who had just come to us from a school where she had had a very hard time, looked at me for a long time after I had finished. Then, still looking at me, she said slowly and seriously, "Mr Holt, do you really mean that?" I said just as seriously, "I mean every word of it."

During the .spring she really surprised me. One day, she was reading Moby Dick (白鯨) at her desk. I said. "Don't you find parts of it rather heavy going?" She answered, "Oh, sure, but I just skip over (略過(guò)) those parts and go on to the next good part."

This is exactly what reading should be. an exciting, joyous adventure. Find something, dive into it, take the good parts, skip the bad parts, get what you can out of it, go on to something else.

閱讀下面的短文，按要求回答問(wèn)題。

In the town of Lampang in northern Thailand, there is an unusual group of musicians. They play many different kinds of music~everything from traditional Thai songs to music by Beethoven. Both children and adults love this group. What makes them so popular? Is it their music? Their looks7 Yes, it's both of the things, but it's also something else: they're elephants.

These musical elephants started at the TECC in Lampang. The TECC protects elephants. It teaches people to understand and love them. And, like many zoos around the world, the TECC encourages elephants to paint.

Richard Lair works for the TECC. He loves his job there and knows a lot about elephants. He says some of the animals' paintings are very good. But, in fact, elephants hear better than they see. And so he had an idea: if elephants are smart and they have good hearing, maybe they can play music. To test his idea, Lair and a friend started the Thai Elephant Orchestra. During a performance, the elephants play a number of instruments, including the drums and the xylophone (木琴).

But can elephants really make music properly? Yes, says Lair. They are very creative. Human encourage the animals to play, but the elephants make their own songs; they don't just copy their trainers or other people. There are now CDs of the group's music which make money for the TECC. And the music these artists create is pretty amazing
