One very cold day,a snowstorm blew into our area. Needing firewood,I quickly set out with my best friend,Bruce,to look for a tree to cut down. I was glad to have Bruce along with. Cutting down a tree in a snowstorm can be dangerous. So it was important to have a friend who could warn me of danger.
When I chose a big tree about 23 meters tall and prepared to cut it down,my best friend suddenly warned me,“Don’t cut down that tree!It’s too close to the power line!﹙電線﹚”I wasn’t sure about it. So I decided to disregard his warning. I wanted to finish the job quickly and go home. So I began cutting down the tree. When the tree fell,there was no longer any doubt that my friend was right.
The tree caught the power line,bringing it to the ground. I considered cutting the tree off the line. After all,electricity can’t travel through wood,so I could safely remove the tree. As I reached out my finger to touch the tree,pain ran up my arm and through my head. I was shocked!
After I returned home and told my mother what had happened,she quickly called the power company. The workers from the power company soon arrived on the scene. One of them asked if I had touched the tree,and when I told him I had,his face turned pale.
“You should have been killed,” he said.
So why am I still alive?It was my boots that saved my life.
Within two hours,the workers removed the tree. Soon the snowstorm calmed downbut not my mother.
Even though she was glad I wasn’t hurt,my mother was still serious. After all,I shouldn’t have brushed off my friend’s warning.
Through this experience,I learn it’s important to listen to people who offer a different perspective. Taking time to listen might actually save a lot of time and trouble. It certainly would have kept me from getting the “shock” of my life.
【小題1】The underlined word “disregard” in the second paragraph means “________”.

A.pay no attention toB.take notice ofC.considerD.follow
【小題2】Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?
A.But for his boots,the author would have died.
B.The author regretted having brushed off his friend’s warning.
C.The author knew nothing about electricity.
D.When the tree was cut down,the author realized his friend was right.
【小題3】The underlined part “the snowstorm calmed down—but not my mother” means “________”.
A.my mother was still angry with me for not listening to my friend’s warning
B.my mother was still in fear of the terrible accident
C.my mother was still comforting me
D.my mother was still worried about my safety
【小題4】The author wrote the passage mainly to________.
A.give an account of one of his terrible experiences
B.make us know it’s important to listen to people who offer a different perspective through his experience

If you are afraid of the dark,it’s not a big deal.It’s perfectly normal to feel afraid After all,animals do too. “Fear matters,”says Karen Warkentin,an ecologist.“It’s a good thing,” she adds, “because fear makes you do things that keep you alive.”
Like kids,many animals experience fear and they respond to the feeling in variety of ways.A frightened turtle pulls its head and legs inside its shell.A  small fish will swim away when a big,hungry fish approaches.
Some animals respond to fear in ways you might not expect.The first example is that the fear of being eaten can scare some frogs right out of their eggs. Warkentin made the surprising discovery while studying red—eyed tree frogs in Costa Rica.
In this species,female frogs attach jellylike clumps(果凍一樣的塊狀物)of their eggs to the undersides of leaves.The leaves hang on branches that dangle(懸掛)over ponds.After they hatch from the eggs,the tadpoles(蝌蚪)then fall into the water,where they eventually grow into adult frogs.
Tree frog eggs usually grow for 6 days before hatching.If they sense that a hungry snake is about to attack,however,they can hatch up to 2 days ahead of schedule. As the snakes are unable to swim,by falling into the water early,the tadpoles can escape.
If hatching early helps protect red—eyed tree frogs from snakes,you might wonder why their eggs don’t always hatch sooner.It turns out that hatching early brings its own danger.Once tadpoles land in the water,hungry fish and other animals like to eat them too.Staying in their eggs for a full 6 days,then,allows frog embryos(胚胎)to grow big and strong.This extra growth improves their chances of surviving in the water.
【小題1】It can be inferred from the passage that fears      .

A.help animals grow bigger and stronger
B.a(chǎn)re less common among young animals
C.help animals move a lot to fit the environment
D.a(chǎn)re more or less important in order for animals to survive
【小題2】We are told in the passage that tree frogs       .
A.face danger both inside their eggs and in the water
B.will grow fast if they fall into the water later
C.a(chǎn)re surprisingly clever when inside their eggs
D.stay in their eggs longer if they are frightened
【小題3】Why do the tadpoles hatch up to 2 days ahead of the schedule?Because
A.They like falling into the water early
B.They want to grow into adult frog
C. They sense a hungry snake is about to attack
D.Frog embryos can grow strong
【小題4】What is the best title of the passage ?
A.What is FearB.Why do we feel afraid
C.You feel afraid,animals do tooD.Fear is a good thing
【小題5】What do you think would be discussed in the following paragraph?
A.Further explanations as to why tree frogs hatch ahead of schedule.
B.How the unborn frogs know when a snake is about to attack them.
C.Another example of animals that responds to fear in an unexpected way.
D.How tree frogs improve their chances of survival before falling into the water.

第三部分:閱讀理解(共15小題,每題2分,滿分30分)

閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)(A、B、C和D)中,選出最佳選項(xiàng)。

For years I wanted a flower garden. I’d spend hours thinking of different things I could plant that would look nice together.

But then we had Matthew. And Marvin. And the twins, Alisa and Alan. And then Helen. Five children. I was too busy raising them to grow a garden.

Money was tight, as well as time. Often when my children were little, one of them would want something that cost too much, and I'd have to say, "Do you see a money tree outside? Money doesn't grow on trees, you know."

Finally, all five got through high school and college and were off on their own. I started thinking again about having a garden.

I wasn't sure, though. I mean, gardens do cost money, and after all these years I was used to living on a pretty lean, no-frills budget.

Then, one spring morning, on Mother's Day, I was working in my kitchen. Suddenly, I realized that cars were tooting their horns as they drove by. I looked out the window and there was a new tree, planted right in my yard. I thought it must be a weeping willow, because I saw things blowing around on all its branches. Then I put my glasses on - and I couldn't believe what I saw. There was a money tree in my yard!

I went outside to look. It was true! There were dollar bills, one hundred of them, taped all over that tree. Think of all the garden flowers I could buy with one hundred dollars! There was also a note attached: "IOU eight hours of digging time. Love, Marvin."

Marvin kept his promise, too. He dug up a nice ten-by-fifteen foot bed for me. And my other children bought me tools, ornaments, a trellis (棚架), a sunflower stepping stone and gardening books.

That was three years ago. My garden's now very pretty, just like I wanted. When I go out and weed or tend my flowers, I don't seem to miss my children as much as I once did. It feels like they're right there with me.

I live up in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, where winters are long and cold, and summers are too short. But every year now, when winter sets in, I look out my window and think of the flowers I'll see next spring in my little garden. I think about what my children did for me, and I get tears in my eyes - every time.

I'm still not sure that money grows on trees.  But I know love does!(430 words)

1. By saying “Do you see a money tree outside .….,” the mother actually means “________”

A.Observation is the best teacher.          B.Seeing is believing.

         C.The outsider sees the most of the game.    D.It is not easy to gain money

2. The best title for the passage would probably be_______.

        A.My flower garden               B.Marvin helps to realize my dream

         C.Love in Michigan                 D.Money grows on trees

3. The underlined word “no - frills” in the fifth paragraphs is similar in meaning to_______.

         A.wasteful    B.tight  C.a(chǎn)bsurd        D.helpful

4. From the last but the third paragraph we can infer that the mother is_______

         A.divorced when she was young    B.not caring for her kids any longer

         C.a(chǎn)lone but not at all lonely       D.prouder with her garden than with her kids.
