Last week I was riding my special motorbike and then stopped at a convenience store. As I was getting my wheelchair off the back, a man watched me from his car and I noticed a wheelchair in his back seat. We spoke for a moment and I asked him about the wheelchair. He answered that it was for his daughter. “Well, do you think she would like to go for a ride on my motorbike with me?” I asked. He seemed shocked that a total stranger would ask him this. He thought about it for a second and said, “OK, as long as I can follow you.”

He introduced me to Amy and he sat her on my back seat. Her father followed me for a few miles and she talked non-stop about what she wanted for Christmas.

As we came back to the convenience store, she said, “This ride is the best Christmas present I could ever receive. I have been in a wheelchair my whole life and didn’t know I could do this.” I told her about some of the other things I do (ski, travel the world by myself, etc.). As her father was taking her off my bike, she turned to him and said, “Oh Daddy, I’m going to be OK. Mr. Bryant does all kinds of things, and I will too.” Her father turned away as a tear of joy rolled down his cheek. He hugged me and said, “I was sitting here praying for a gift for Amy that would encourage her. She often felt that her life was dull compared to other children. God answered my prayer just now. Now I pray that God will bless you for your gift to Amy today.” I believed what he said. Being kind and thoughtful to others, we can be an answer to prayer.

1.How did the father feel at first when the author invited his daughter for a ride?

A. He was happy because his daughter could gain excitement.

B. He felt surprised because he didn’t know the author.

C. He was moved because the author offered to help his daughter.

2.What can we know about the author?

B. He worked in a convenience store.

C. He often helped people who were in trouble.

D. He usually drove too fast.

3.According to the passage, the girl ____________.

A. used to be a completely healthy person

B. was not allowed to do some fierce sports

C. usually felt sad about life due to her disability

D. was unwilling to communicate with a stranger

4.What did the author’s gift refer to according to the girl’s father?

A. The motorbike. 　　 B. The wheelchair.

C. The blessing. 　　 D. The ride.

It was a long week for Amanda at school. She stayed after school to work on a special project(课题) three days in a row. When she got home on Friday, she dropped into the chair with a sigh.

“What’s going on, Amanda?” her dad asked as he was reading the newspaper.

“I have to create a webpage for my technology class, and it is taking a lot more time than I thought it would,” Amanda answered.

Her dad looked over his newspaper and asked Amanda what the webpage was about.

“It’s about the difference between newspaper news and Internet news,” Amanda said and added, “I have to provide information, examples and illustrations(插图).”

“Sounds tough; do you have someone to help you?” her dad asked.

“I have a partner named Zach,” Amanda replied. “We did research on the Internet today and found some pictures to use.”

Then Amanda explained to her father the main differences: newspaper news is printed on paper, and Internet news is published online; newspaper news is only available once a day, and Internet news is published almost as soon as the news happens; many newspapers don’t even print a daily paper, and Internet news is published around the clock.

Amanda’s dad asked, “Which type of news do you like better?”

“I like Internet news better because I like to learn about the news when it happens,” she answered.

Her dad said, “I still like newspaper news better because I like to hold the paper in my hands and turn the pages.”

Amanda dropped into her chair again and said, “You are so old school, Dad.”

1.Why did Amanda sigh when she came home?

A. She failed to pass the exam.

B. She was tired of school life.

C. She was worried about her school project.

D. She made a mistake in her technology class.

2.What did Amanda’s father think of her work on creating a webpage for her technology class?

A. Exciting.        B. Boring.            C. Interesting.            D. Difficult.

3.Which of the following may Amanda agree with?

A. People should pay for Internet news.

B. Newspaper news will soon disappear.

C. Internet news is given to readers in good time.

D. It is wrong to say no to newspaper news.

4.What kind of person is Amanda’s father?

A. He is a man who misses the past.

B. He is a man who cares little about news.

C. He is a man who knows the computer well.

D. He is a man who cannot live without the Internet.

Several months ago, I attended the opening event for a new children's literacy(读写能力) campaign at the Burbank Library in California. The campaign is called Marvel Comics Close－Up, aimed at using comic books to encourage kids to read. Disney and Marvel donated 210，000 books to libraries and schools across the country.

Stars from Disney XD participated. They read Spider－Man comic books to 70 kids from Boys & Girls Clubs in southern California. The stars included Drake Bell (Ultimate Spider－Man), Dylan Riley Snyder (Kickin' It), Olivia Holt (Kickin' It) and Cole Jenson (Crash & Bernstein)．

Drake Bell said that the Marvel reading campaign is aimed at kids who are bored with books, believing comic books are the answer for kids who say they'd rather play video games. “Comic books really get you into the story，” he told TFK(Time For Kids). “They are not just words or pictures on a page.”

Dylan Riley Snyder knows from his experiences that comic books have the power to inspire kids' imagination. His mom was a teacher and she used comic books to interest students who thought they weren't interested in reading. Dylan attended these classes. He would read the comic books and draw the characters along with the students. “It was a great way for these kids to start to enjoy reading，” Dylan said. “That's how I got interested in reading too. Now I can share my love for comic books with others through the Marvel Comics Close－Up program.”

David Levine is the Vice President of Disney XD Worldwide. He said great stories and great characters, like Spider－Man and The Avengers, were key to making reading fun. “Reading can encourage you to explore new things and take you to all sorts of exciting places，” he told TFK.

1.What is the main purpose of the Marvel reading campaign?

A．To donate books to libraries and schools.

B．To encourage students to use the library.

C．To excite children's interest in reading.

D．To introduce some new comic books.

2.By saying “They are not just words or pictures on a page” in Paragraph 3, Drake Bell means ________．

A．comic books make kids imaginative and interested

B．there are colorful pictures in most comic books

C．common books with only words are bad for kids

D．comic books are much better than common books

3.Who stressed the benefit of reading?

A．Drake Bell.

B．Dylan Riley Snyder.

C．Olivia Holt.

D．David Levine.
