There’s always something deep in our soul that never dies. I moved to the small, busy town of Edison in New Jersey six years ago. It was during the second term of my fifth grade. My parents got new jobs and higher income, so they decided it was time to move from Woodbridge to a better, more educational town.
In the US, it is unnecessary to take a test to get into a “good” middle or high school. You just attend the school close to where you live. So, many parents will think about the quality (质量,品质) of the local school when they decide to buy a new house. My parents did the same. We finally chose Edison mainly because of the high quality of its school.
In New Jersey, an area with a good school usually means a concentration of Asian people. There are about 300 students in our school. 55% are Asians and just under half of that are Chinese. There are so many Chinese people nearby that we even have our own Chinese school.
Edison is an old town, just like thousands of others in the United States. However, I have treated it as my hometown. That’s where I spend much of my youth, and the memories there can’t be moved at all.
1.Why did the writer’s parents move to Edison?
A. Because they were born there.
B. Because it was a better educational town.
C. Because the writer began his fifth grade.
D. Because the writer didn’t need to take a test.
2.How many students are from Asia in the writer’s school?
A. About 80. B. About 160.
C. About 220. D. About 300.
3.What does the underlined expression “a concentration of” mean in Paragraph 3?
A. None of B. The whole of
C. A large number of D. A small number of
4.Why can’t the writer forget Edison?
A. Because he regards it as his hometown.
B. Because his parents got new jobs there.
C. Because there are many Asians there.
D. Because it is in the state of New Jersey.

I’ll never forget that summer day in 1965 when my mother suddenly died of an unexplained illness at the age of 36. Later that afternoon, a police officer stopped by to ask my father if the hospital could use Mother’s corneas(角膜). I was shocked. “The doctors want to dissect Mum and give her away to other people!” I thought as I ran into the house in tears.
“How can you let them do that to her?” I screamed at my father. “My mum came into this world in one piece and that is how she should go out.”
“Linda,” Father said quietly, putting his arm around me, “the greatest gift you can give is a part of yourself. Your mother and I decided long ago that if we can make a difference in just one person’s life after we die, our death will have meaning.” He went on to explain they had both decided to donate their organs(器官).
The lesson my father taught me that day became one of the most important in my life.
Years passed. I married and had a family of my own. In 1980, my father became seriously ill and moved in with us. He cheerfully told me that when he died, he wanted me to donate his eyes. “Sight is one of the greatest gifts a person can give,” he said.
I told Wendy what her grandpa had said, and with tears in her eyes, she went into her grandpa’s room and gave him a big hug. She was only fourteen years old------the same age at which I was introduced to such a thing. What a difference!
My father died on April 11,1986, and we donated his eyes as he had wanted. Three days later, Wendy said, “Mum, I’m so proud of you for what did for Grandpa.”
At that moment, I realized that my father gave much more than his eyes.
1.How was it for the writer to agree the hospital’s use of her mother’s corneas?
A. Easy B. Possible C. Simple D. Difficult
2.According to the passage, the underlined word “dissect” may be best replaced by___________.
A. cut up B. search for C. move away D. burn away
3.Why did the writer finally agree on her mother’s donation?
A. Because she was afraid of her father
B. Because she didn’t care about it any more
C. Because she was too young to stop it.
D. Because her father explained to her
4.What did Wendy think of her grandpa’s donation?
A. At first she couldn’t accept it, but she agreed in the end.
B. She begged her mother not to donate her grandpa’s eyes.
C. She felt proud of her grandpa’s donation
D. She thought it normal and didn’t car about it much.
