八年级英语单选题中等难度题查看答案及解析

When I spent the summer with my grandmother, she always sent me to a store with a long shopping list. How could I hope to find all these things? In the store, there was a tall lady with black glasses on her nose. There wasn’t a smile on her face.

“Excuse me,” I said. She looked down and said, “I’m Miss Bee.”

“I need to get these.” I said, holding up my list. “So? Go to get them. ” Miss Bee pointed to some shelves. “There’s no one here, only you and me, so get yourself a basket and get all these things yourself.”

That summer I visited Miss Bee twice a week. Sometimes she gave me wrong change. One afternoon I corrected her, “That bag of beans is only twenty-nine cents!”She just looked at me over her glasses and changed the price. Going to the store was more like going into battle. I got into the store just like General Patton getting into North Africa.

Soon I learned how to find the product on the shelf… At the end of the summer, the shopping trip only took me 15 minutes. Before I left, I stopped in the store to get some candy.

“All right, little girl,” she said. “What did you learn this summer?” Before I could answer. Miss Bee laughed and said, “I know what you think of me. Well, I don’t care! My job is to teach every child some life lessons. When you get older you’ll be glad you ever met Miss Bee. Haha!...”

I didn’t think of her words. Years passed, one day my daughter came to me with her homework. “It’s too hard,” she said. “Could you finish my math problems for me?”

“If I do it for you, how will you ever learn to do it yourself?” I said. Suddenly, I was back at that store and I knew what I learned from the old lady that summer.

Valuable Gifts

When my mother told my father she was pregnant (怀孕), the first thing he did was to buy a TV. It was 1957 and TVs were new technology. He thought that with a baby, they would go out less and he would need to find entertainment at home.

That was the first _______ he gave me.

But when I think of other gifts my father has given me, the first would be a love of _______. He is always found reading in our study. He has been totally deaf in one ear since he was two, so we rarely listened to music. In my childhood, storybooks were king, not songs.

I'm a girl, Rosie. Racing on the 1, 500-meter track(跑道), I'm so tired. I want to stop but a voice is repeating in my head, "No one knows what the result will be. Everything is still possible. "Today, I have to fight with myself.

Nine years ago, when I was a 6-year-old girl, my mother took me on a trip. We went to the foot of a high mountain which she told me that we would climb. I had never done this before and the thought of it made me very happy.

At the beginning, I was so excited, and climbed fast. But half an hour later, when I was thirsty and tired, I just stopped and sat on the ground, completely silent. My mom came and sat next to me.

She said, "Get up and go on!"

Crying, I almost shouted, "Never! It's too tiring and I am thirsty. I want to go back home now. "

Patiently she explained, "Listen, my dear. If you try your best, anything is possible. If you don't try, your dream will never come true. You will never know how beautiful the sights(风景) look unless you reach the top of the mountain. "

Hearing her words, I stopped crying and started to climb again. Finally I did reach the top of the mountain and enjoyed the fantastic view.

Today I'm on the racing track. I'm going to keep running because I know it's always valuable. And in the end I made it—I got through the finish line.
