When shopping in a store, I met a boy. When I saw him waving his hands excitedly in the air and shouting in a loud voice, "Mommy, I'm here.", I knew he was mentally troubled.
I asked his name and he said proudly, "My name is Denny and I'm shopping with mother."
"Wow," I said, "that's a cool name. How old are you, Denny?"
"How old am I now, Mommy?" he asked his mother.
"You're fifteen years old, Denny; now be a good boy and let the man pass by."
I continued to talk to Denny for several more minutes about summer, bicycles and school. I watched his brown eyes dance with excitement because he was the centre of someone's attention.
Denny's mom thanked me for talking with her son. She told me that most people wouldn't even look at him, not to speak of talking to him. I told her that it was my pleasure and then I said, "There are plenty of red, yellow and pink roses in the garden, however, 'Blue Roses' are very rare and should be enjoyed for their beauty and distinctiveness. Denny is a 'Blue Rose' and if someone doesn't stop and smell that rose with their heart and kindness, then they've missed a chance to enjoy the beauty."
She was silent for a second, and then went away with tears in her eyes.
1.What was wrong with the boy?
A. He lost his way.
B. There was something wrong with his mind.
C. He didn't know his name and age.
D. He couldn't find his mother.
2.What does the underlined word "distinctiveness" mean in Chinese?
A.独立性 B.一致性 C.重要性 D.独特性
3.What can we learn from the underlined sentence?
A. He was so excited that his eyes could dance.
B. He was excited because his eyes caught someone's attention.
C. He was excited because someone was talking with him.

I was walking around in a store. I saw an assistant pass this little boy his money back, saying, “I’m sorry, but you don’t have enough money to buy this doll.” I walked toward him and asked him who he wished to give this doll to.
“It’s the doll that my sister loved most and wanted so much for Christmas. She was so sure that Santa Claus would bring it to her.” he said.

I quickly reached for my wallet and said to the boy, “What if we checked again, just in case (万一)you do have enough money?”
“Ok,” he said. “I hope that I have enough.” I added some of my money to his without letting him see and we started to count it. There was enough for the doll and even some spare money left . The little boy said, “Thank you God for giving me enough money!”
I left the store, feeling as if my life had been changed forever.

If you go shopping in any toy store, you can see clearly the different games and toys for boys and girls: there are a lot of pink toys on one side of the store for girls; and dark-colored cars, guns, and soldiers for boys. Some big stores with toys may even have a pink floor for girls and a blue floor for boys. In fact, it is difficult to buy a toy for a girl that is not pink.
Some people think that too much pink is bad for girls. Sue Palmer, writer of Toxic Childhood, is very worried that most girls over the age of three are captivated about the color. According to some scientists, this happens for two reasons. Firstly, most companies offer too many products in pink. Also, many parents think their little daughter looks cute in pink. Sue Palmer says that girls at this age cannot make proper decisions by themselves, but the pink can affect (影响) the choices and the decisions they will make in the future.
Some parents are worried, too, for example, Vanessa Holburn, thirty-two, who has two girls under the age of four. Their bedrooms are a sea of pink and Vanessa is not happy. “Pink says that you are soft and gentle. Blue says that you are strong and powerful. I want my daughters to be strong and powerful. I’m worried that pink will not help them with that,” she says.
But not everyone thinks there’s something wrong with pink. Grayson Turner is a father of three girls and he isn’t worried at all. “People forget that things change all the time,” he says. “My girls used to love pink when they were little, but as they get older, they change.” Turner explains that his twelve-year-old daughter never wears pink clothes anymore. “This love of pink is just a fashion and all fashions change,” he adds. “It’s only since the 1940s that people have stated dressing girls — — in pink before that it was a color for boys.”
1.Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?
A.
B.
C.
D.
2.The underlined phrase “are captivated about ” in Paragraph 2 probably means .
A.are afraid of B.are tired of
C.are crazy about D.are nervous about
3.According to Grayson Turner, .
A.all little kids love the color pink
B.his girls now prefer the color blue
C.pink has always been a color for girls
D.parents needn’t worry about pink toys
4.The purpose of this passage is to .
A.explain why girls are crazy about the color pink
B.make parents less worried about the color pink
C.encourage girls to give up playing with pink toys
D.show people’s different opinions about the color pink
