My father had returned from his business visit to London when I came in, rather late, to supper. I could tell at once that he and my mother had been discussing something. In that half-playful, half-serious way I knew so well, he said, "How would you like to go to Eton?"

     "You bet," I cried quickly catching the joke. Everyone knew it was the most expensive, the most famous of schools. You had to be entered at birth, if not before. Besides, even at 12 or 13, I understood my father. He disliked any form of showing off. He always knew his proper station in life, which was in the middle of the middle class, our house was medium-sized; he had avoided joining Royal Liverpool Golf Club and went to a smaller one instead; though once he had got a second-hand Rolls-Royce at a remarkably low price, he felt embarrassed driving it, and quickly changed it for an Austin 1100.

     This could only be his delightful way of telling me that the whole boarding school idea was to be dropped. Alas! I should also have remembered that he had a liking for being different from everyone else, if it did not conflict with his fear of drawing attention to himself.

     It seemed that he had happened to be talking to Graham Brown of the London office, a very nice fellow, and Graham had a friend who had just entered his boy at the school, and while he was in that part of the world he thought he might just as well phone them. I remember my eyes stinging(刺痛) and my hands shaking with the confusion of my feelings. There was excitement, at the heart of great sadness.

     "Oh, he doesn’t want to go away," said my mother, "You shouldn’t go on like this.” “It’s up to him," said my father. "He can make up his own mind."

The house the writer’s family lived in was ________.

    A. the best they could afford            B. right for their social position

    C. for showing off                      D. rather small

His father sold his Roils-Royce because ________.

     A. it made him feel uneasy               B. it was too old to work well

     C. it was too expensive to possess            D. it was too cheap

The writer’s father enjoyed being different as long as ________.

    A. it drew attention to him                    B. it didn’t bring him in arguments

    C. it was understood as a joke              D. there was no danger of his showing off

What was the writer’s reaction to the idea of going to Eton?

    A. He was very unhappy.               B. He didn’t believe it.

    C. He was delighted.                   D. He had mixed feelings.

What was the writer’s reaction to the idea of going to boarding-school?

When I was learning calligraphy my teacher told me a story.
A calligrapher taught handwriting. One of his students who often practised handwriting with old sheets of newspapers complained that he made very little progress though he had learned it with the calligrapher for a long time. His teacher said to him, “Try to use the best paper. Maybe you’ll write better. ”
 The student did as he was told. It really worked. He made headway not long afterwards and felt curious. He asked his teacher about the reason. The calligrapher answered, “When you used old newspapers to practice handwriting,you would think you were writing a draft(草稿).  It didn’t matter if you wrote badly as old newspapers were plenty in supply. In that case you wouldn’t pay much attention to it. Now you use the best paper you’ll treasure it. Each time you write you feel strongly about the rarity (稀少) of chances and you’ll devote to it with all your heart and soul; you’ll do the handwriting much more attentively than otherwise practising it. Of course you’ve made rapid progress.”
Indeed,we spend our ordinary days just as they are worthless “old newspapers”. We don’t care if we scrawl and waste them, thinking that they will come endlessly --- those “old newspapers” are inexhaustible. In such a mood we may each day pass by opportunities but fail to catch any of them.
Life is not a military exercise but an actual war in which real weapons are used. In everyday life there’s no chance for us to draw a draft. That’s because what we call “draft” actually is the answer sheet we write that cannot be changed. Every day of our life is something new. Let us take every day as a sheet of best paper.
【小題1】The calligrapher in the story told the student to write on the best paper because he thought _______.

A.the student would practice more carefully on the best paper
B.it was comfortable to write on the bet paper
C.the student had enough money to buy the best paper.
D.the student could write more on the best paper.
【小題2】The student didn’t make much progress at first because _________.
A.he regarded his writing on old newspaper just as a draft
B.he was too poor to buy better paper to write
C.he didn’t follow his teacher’s advice
D.he was not used to the calligrapher’s teaching manner
【小題3】We learn from the passage that _________.
A.the student finally gave up
B.the student made rapid progress by persisting more carefully
C.the calligrapher was strict with his students
D.old newspaper is not useful
【小題4】Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A.What teachers say is always true.
B.Success calls for attentiveness.
C.Handwriting is easy to practice.
D.New things are always better than old ones.
【小題5】The writer wants to tell us that _________.
A.there are some good ways to practice handwriting
B.life is like old newspaper
C.we should learn from the student in the story
D.life will not give us a chance to draw a draft
