When Iwas.in the third grade, we had a hunt at school. We gathered up chalk,pencils,stones, and so on, rapidly filling our checklists. It was a very close race. I was out of breath when I reachedthe clover (三叶草)patch in search of the last, most hard-to-find item: afour-leaf clover.
I was pretty sure that I was going to win. 1 have always been able to find four-leaf clovers. I just see them.
I spent my childhood collecting and pressing four-leaf clovers into books at my mother's house. I started with big cloth- and leather-bound books. When I ran out of romantically bound volumes, I began to put my treasures into anything I could find: fiction paperbacks, cookbooks. The same is true in my house today. Shake a book, and a papery treasure just might fall into your hand.
A few years ago, in Nova Scotia, my husband and I pulled off the road for a picnic. The ground was thick with clover. Some shoots had four, five, even six leaves. I lined them up on the picnic table to admire as my husband, never yet having found one four-leaf clover, looked on with awe. To me, it was simple. The differences in their shapes popped out, breaking the pretty pattern of the conventional clovers with their three perfect leaves.
Two summers back, while waiting for an airport shuttle in Munich, I found a tiny four-leaf clover in a traffic circle and put it into my passport. On the way home, my husband and I were upgraded to business class. Friends attributed our good luck to the clover. I think, it's more likely that we were upgraded because a kind customer service officer took pity on us.
People disagree about whether the luck lies in the finding or in the possession of a clover. Some believe that the luck is lost if the four-leaf clover is even shown to somebody else, while others think the luck doubles if it is given away. I believe that positivity is increased by sharing. I feel lucky to find the clovers so often, but I don't think they influence my life any more than it does to share anything a little special—that momentary closeness between you and a friend or a stranger, as you all lean in to wonder at a rare find.

When we first moved into our present home, the houses only had a chain-link fence (铁丝网围栏)between them. People behind us were older;their children were in their late teens, and we didn’t see them or hear from them much.
Time passed and a younger family moved in. While at first we thought this would be fun for the kids, it quickly became a pain. If one of our children had a birthday party the neighbors would line up their children along the back fence to watch. We would have invited their children if they had been of the same age. While our older children had parties the neighbor’s little kids would shout through the fence the entire time; we knew it was time to get a new fence.
When we built our fence next to the old one, they not only paid nothing for it, but watched us have it built. After we built our fence the mother of the house would call over and ask who was jumping on our trampoline (蹦床). She could only see the tops of their heads and couldn’t figure out who it was. Good people, just too much interest in us. Years later they rebuilt their houses and built a pretty fence between the houses next to the old one. They were not surprised that we didn’t want to pay for it. I have to admit their fence is much prettier than our wooden one.
Our yard is next to four other homes; each of the families has had his own home with a strong fence. We have left ours in place. While we love all our neighbors we are glad we have fences between each of us. Only in this way can we protect our little privacy (隐私), as fences certainly do make good neighbors.
1.Why did the author’s home have a wooden fence built?
A. The wooden fence looked more beautiful.
B. With the fence his home could become safer.
C. They didn’t want their little privacy to be known.
D. The author’s family didn’t like their new neighbor.
2.How did the mother know the children were jumping on the trampoline?
A. She learned about it by telephoning.
B. She saw the tops of the children’s heads.
C. She heard the sound of the children’s jumping.
D. Her children told her about it.
3.Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. The author’s neighbors all have built strong fences.
B. Old people living behind liked children very much.
C. The young neighbors wanted the author to pay for the fence.
D. The young neighbors were very angry about the author’s ugly fence.
4.We can guess from the passage that .
A. the young mother of the house was interested in other families’ life
B. the neighbor of the author started to live there when the author was very young
C. the author thinks that the fences destroy the friendship between the neighbors
D. the author’s family was not a big one when the younger family moved here
