One morning, Ann’s neighbor Tracy found a lost dog wandering around the local elementary school. She asked Ann if she could keep an eye on the dog. Ann said that she could watch it only for the day.
Tracy took photos of the dog and printed off 400 FOUND fliers(传单), and put them in mailboxes. Meanwhile, Ann went to the dollar store and bought some pet supplies, warning her two sons not to fall in love with the dog. At the time, Ann’s son Thomas was 10 years old, and Jack, who was recovering from a heart operation, was 21 years old.
Four days later Ann was still looking after the dog, whom they had started to call Riley. When she arrived home from work, the dog threw itself against the screen door and barked madly at her. As soon as she opened the door, Riley dashed into the boys’ room where Ann found Jack suffering from a heart attack. Riley ran over to Jack, but as soon as Ann bent over to help him the dog went silent.
“If it hadn’t come to get me, the doctor said Jack would have died,” Ann reported to a local newspaper. At this point, no one had called to claim the dog, so Ann decided to keep it.
The next morning Tracy got a call. A man named Peter recognized his lost dog and called the number on the flier. Tracy started crying, and told him, “That dog saved my friend’s son.”
Peter drove to Ann’s house to pick up his dog, and saw Thomas and Jack crying in the window. After a few moments Peter said, “Maybe Odie was supposed to find you, maybe you should keep it.”

C
One day after we moved to our farm, I found that two of the neighbor’s cows and a calf had wandered through the fence along our woods. The neighbor, Lorne Wright showed up with his dog to herd them back into his grassland—and with part of a roll of nine-wire fence.
"There’s probably enough to reach from the road to the first brace post if you were of a mind to fix this spot," he said. My face lit right up. I wanted to be a good neighbor, but money was tight.
The next week I was pulling the old fence out of the tall grass when Bill Risk stopped his car. He said,
"Fixing fence, are you? Hear a story? A long time ago, two fellows farmed next to each other, so they agreed that each would start building fence on opposite ends of their farms and meet in the middle."
"When they finished, one said, ‘Well, it looks good.’ But the other said, ‘My half looks good, because I started where I should have, but you started your half about 2 feet over on my farm and I want it moved right away!’"
"Well, these two fellows, who could have been good neighbors, began to get angry with each other, and the bitterness went on for years. Finally one man sold his farm, and no sooner had the new owner moved in than his neighbor paid him a visit. "
"He said, ‘There has always been a problem with our line fence. Your half begins 2 feet over on my farm. It should have been moved a long time ago.’ The new neighbor thought for a moment, then said, ‘I always intend to be a good neighbor. If you think the fence is on your farm, you move it to wherever you think it should be, and you’ll never hear a complaint from me.’"
"They became good friends. And the fence was never moved. So keep that fence straight, neighbor," Bill went away, leaving me with a smile on my face as I went back to work.
【题文1】 How did the writer feel after hearing his neighbor’s words?
A. Excited. B. Embarrassed. C. Puzzled. D. Satisfied.
【题文2】After finishing their fence, the two fellows _________.
A. celebrated for building a solid fence B. have become good neighbors even since
C. started right off with hard feelings D. argued about whose fence was good
【题文3】How did the new owner treat the fence?
A. By moving it to his property. B. By finding where it should be first.
C. By taking it apart immediately. D. By allowing the neighbor to deal with it.
【题文4】What lesson can we learn from the text?
A. Good fences make good neighbors. B. Two neighbors build their fences.
C. Fences have their own stories. D. Keep your fence strong and tall.

One morning, when Gregor Samsa woke from troubled dreams, he found himself transformed in his bed into a horrible insect. He lay on his armor-like back, and if he lifted his head a little he could see his brown belly, slightly domed and divided by arches into stiff sections. The bedding was hardly able to cover it and seemed ready to slide off any moment. His many legs, pitifully thin compared with the size of the rest of him, waved about helplessly as he looked.
“What’s happened to me?” he thought. It wasn’t a dream. His room, a proper human room although a little too small, lay peacefully between its four familiar walls. A collection of textile samples lay spread out on the table-Samsa was a travelling salesman-and above it there hung a picture that he had recently cut out of an illustrated magazine and housed in a nice, gilded frame. It showed a lady fitted out with a fur hat and fur scarf who sat upright, raising a heavy fur muff(暖手筒)that covered the whole of her lower arm towards the viewer.
Gregor then turned to look out the window at the dull weather. Drops of rain could be heard hitting the window, which made him feel quite sad. “How about if I sleep a little bit longer and forget all this nonsense,” he thought, but that was something he was unable to do because he was used to sleeping on his right, and in his present state couldn’t get into that position. However hard he threw himself onto his right, he always rolled back to where he was. He must have tried it a hundred times, shut his eyes so that he wouldn’t have to look at the floundering legs, and only stopped when he began to feel a mild, dull pain there that he had never felt before.
He thought, “What a heavy career it is that I’ve chosen! Travelling day in and day out. Doing business like this takes much more effort than doing your own business at home, and on top of that there's the curse of travelling, worries about making train connections, bad and irregular food, contact with different people all the time so that you can never get to know anyone or become friendly with them.” He felt a slight itch up on his belly; pushed himself slowly up on his back towards the headboard so that he could lift his head better; found where the itch was, and saw that it was covered with lots of little white spots which he didn’t know what to make of; and when he tried to feel the place with one of his legs he drew it quickly back because as soon as he touched it he was overcome by a cold tremble.
He slid back into his former position. “Getting up early all the time,” he thought, “it makes you stupid. You’ve got to get enough sleep. Other travelling salesmen live a life of luxury. For instance, whenever I go back to the guest house during the morning to copy out the contract, these gentlemen are always still sitting there eating their breakfasts. I ought to just try that with my boss; I’d get kicked out on the spot. But who knows, maybe that would be the best thing for me. If I didn’t have my parents to think about I’d have given in my notice a long time ago, I’d have gone up to the boss and told him just what I think, tell him everything I would, let him know just what I feel. He’d fall right off his desk! And it’s a funny sort of business to be sitting up there at your desk, talking down at your inferiors from up there, especially when you have to go right up close because the boss is hard of hearing. Well, there’s still some hope; once I’ve got the money together to pay off my parents’ debt to him-another five or six years I suppose-that’s definitely what I’ll do. That’s when I’ll make the big change. First of all though, I’ve got to get up, my train leaves at five.”
1.According to the passage, Gregor initially believes his transformation is a ____.
A.curse B.disease C.nightmare D.fraud
2.The word “floundering” in paragraph most nearly means ____.
A.struggling B.painful C.pitiful D.trembling
3.The author most likely includes a description of Gregor’s itch in paragraph 4 to ____.

B.stress the disconnection between Gregors’ thoughts and his actual situation
C.present important details about what Gregor’s new body looks like
D.show that Gregor’s thoughts are focused on the changes to his body
4.The passage most strongly suggests which of the following about Gregor’s attitude toward his profession?
A.He is angry. B.He is eager to please.
C.He is depressed. D.He is diligent.
5.What central idea does the excerpt(节选)communicate through Gregor’s experiences?
A.Imagination is a dangerous thing. B.People are fearful of change.
C.Dreams become our reality. D.Man is a slave to work.

C.illustrate Gregor’s flexibility and ability to move on

One morning when I was 11, I explored the town’s abandoned round grain barn(谷仓).I found a chained sliding door that was wide enough for me to pass through.
Inside, there was a heavy smell of dead mice in the dark.After my eyes adjusted, I noticed a shaft (升降机井) that rose all the way to the top of the barn.On one side was a one-man elevator with a long rope and roller.
I stepped onto the platform and gave the rope a drag and the elevator began sliding up the shaft, but stopped halfway.After a brief panic attack, I noticed holes in the wall at regular intervals, forming a ladder.For reasons known only to an 11-year-old, I decided it would be better to go up than down.So, with shaking hands, I began climbing the wall.
After what seemed like forever, I reached the top of the shaft.I stood up, dusted myself off and found absolutely nothing of interest.It was just an empty room with a ladder leading up to the roof.I climbed all the way up here for this? Then I noticed a fire extinguisher(灭火器), which I’d always wanted to shoot off.So this was the chance of a lifetime.I tried it, and much to my surprise, the thing worked! It shot out a thick cloud of powder that instantly filled the room.I couldn’t breathe.I was going to choke to death, and they’d probably never even find my body.
Luckily, I remembered the ladder to the roof.I climbed up, popped the straw roof and saw a bright blue sky.
I suddenly realized the dust and powder pouring out of the top could draw attention.So when the dust had settled, I climbed down and slipped out of the chained door.I’m not sure if I was more excited about being alive or about not being caught, but I ran all the way back home.
1.When the author got inside the barn, he _______.
A.noticed a man on the elevator
B.opened the chained sliding door
C.saw many dead mice in the dark
D.found a shaft leading to the top
2.After getting out of the chained door, the author might feel _______.
A.inspired
B.relieved
C.surprised
D.disappointed
3.From the passage, we can learn that the author was probably a boy full of _______.
A.passions
B.dreams
C.curiosity
D.imagination
