I still remembered my first day of second grade. I was led to a room. No teacher yet. Girls talking. Boys trying to kill each other.

I took some paper and a pencil, picked a desk, and went to work. Minutes later, a girl came over and sat on top of my desk.

“What're you doing?” she said.

“Writing to 100,” I replied.

“Is that you can do?”

“No,” I said.

Then I rose from my seat to get my pencil sharpener. I had no idea that when I stood, the desk would fall over and hurt her leg.

Her name was Jane. From that day on--she was my best friend. Wherever we went--to school or church or basketball games, Jane saved me a seat or I saved one for her.

Many years later, after college, I moved to California and married. Jane stayed in our hometown to be a social worker. We were friends for more than 50 years. After her death seven years ago, I still think of her often, especially at the start of the school year.

TV ads try to tell us what children need for school—new shoes, clothes, backpacks. But really, children's needs are simple. Besides the basics—to be fed, cared for, and loved—they need the gift of friendship.

For years, I feared how people saw me. But one day, I finally understood. I didn't need to be smart or pretty or popular. I just needed to be kind.

My grandson Henry recently finished his preschool and received a prize for “Friendship”. Even an Olympic medal wouldn't make me prouder! I think children need to know that they are loved. They need to know that they have all they need and the best way to win friends is to be one.

1.When she came into the classroom, the writer ________.

A. went to talk with Jane quickly

B. helped Jane write the numbers to 100

C. worked quietly at her desk alone

D. was afraid that others would fight with her

2.From the passage we know that__________.

A. the writer's leg was hurt on the first day of school

B. the two girls were close friends until Jane died

C. Jane often helped the writer to do some social work

D. the two girls stayed in the same city after college

3.Henry received a prize for "Friendship" probably because _________.

A. he was kind to others　　 B. he was smart at his schoolwork

C. he was loved by his grandma　　 D. he joined in the Olympics

4.The best title of this article would be__________.

A. My Best Friend Jane　　 B. How to Choose Friends

C. My First Day at School　　 D. Friendship Values

I was in line waiting to pay. A little boy in the front was buying some clothes.

I noticed that the little boy was paying mostly with change (零钱). It seemed that he had broken his pig bank (猪形储蓄罐) to do this shopping. However, the cashier told him he was $ 8.00 short after counting his money.

It was clear that the boy had already used all the money. The lady in front of me said, “Well, I could pay half of that.” I told the boy that I could pay the other half. We searched our handbags. However, both of us only had ten-dollar bills (纸币). Other customers behind began searching their pockets to find some change. It was amazing and moving that all these strangers seemed to have the same idea. All of us wanted to help the boy. Within minutes the cashier said, “I have too much money.” The cashier didn’t need our ten-dollar bills. Then the lady in front of me said, “Wait! I didn’t get a chance to give anything!”

I smiled at her and said, “You did your share, because it was your idea and you started all this.” The little boy smiled and thanked us. I was left with a good feeling.

It was on the afternoon of the day of Christmas Eve, and I was in Mrs. Prothero’s garden, waiting for cats, with her son Jim. It was snowing. Patient and cold, our hands wrapped in socks, we waited to snowball the cats. The wise cats never appeared. We were so still in the snow that we never heard Mrs. Prothero’s first cry from the bottom of the garden. Or, if we heard it at all, it was, to us, like the cry of the neighbor’s Polar cat. But soon the voice grew louder. “Fire!” cried Mrs. Prothero.

And we ran down the garden, with the snowballs in our arms, towards the house; and smoke, indeed, was pouring out of the dining room.

This was better than all the cats in Wales standing on the wall in a row. We loaded with snowballs, stopped at the open door of the smoke-filled room. Something was burning all right; perhaps it was Mr. Prothero, who always slept there after midday dinner with a newspaper over his face; but he was standing in the middle of the room, saying, “A fine Christmas!”

There was no fire to be seen, only clouds of smoke and Mr. Prothero standing in the middle of them, waving his slipper as though he were conducting.

“Do something,” he said.

And we three all our snowballs into the smoke—I think we missed Mr. Porthero—and ran out of the house.

“Let’s call the police,” Jim said.

“And Emie Jenkins, he likes fires.” But we only called the fire-brigade, and soon the fire-engine came. Mr. Porthero went out just in time before they turned the hose (水管) on.

1.Why were the boys in Mrs. Prothero’s garden?

A.They were about to start a snowball fight.

B.They were waiting to see if there would be any fires this year.

C.They were waiting to hear Mrs. Porthero’s first cry.

D.They were waiting for the neighbour’s cats to appear.

2.The underlined phrase “snowball the cats” (in Paragraph 1) means “__________”.

A.make cats out of snow B.bury cats under the snow

C.throw snowballs at the cats D.play tricks on cats

3.When the boys saw smoke pouring out of the dining room, __________.

A.they were joyful and excited B.they were frightened and worried

C.they were sorry for Mrs. Prothero D.they were worried about Mr. Prothero
