Jesse was a great teacher, tutor, mentor, and family member. He was a dedicated (忠诚的)volunteer in the Peace Corps in Guinea, West Africa.

The Marches were a happy family. Poverty, hard work, and even the fact that Father March was away with the Union armies could not down the spirits of Meg, Jo, Beth, Amy, and Marmee, as the March girls called their mother.

The March sisters tried to be good but had their share of faults. Pretty Meg was often displeased with the schoolchildren she taught; boyish Jo was easy to become angry; golden-haired schoolgirl Amy liked to show up; but Beth, who kept the house, was loving and gentle always.

The happy days passed and darkness came when a telegram arrived for Mrs. March. “Your husband is very ill,” it said, “come at once.” The girl tried to be brave when their mother left for the front. They waited and prayed. Little Beth got scarlet fever（猩红热）when she was taking care of the sick neighbor. She became very ill but began to recover by the time Marmee was back. When Father came home from the front and at that joyful Christmas dinner they were once more all together.

Three years later the March girls had grown into young womanhood. Meg became Mrs. Brooke, and after a few family troubles got used to her new state happily. Jo had found pleasure in her literary efforts. Amy had grown into a young lady with a talent for design and an even greater one for society. But Beth had never fully regained her health, and her family watched her with love and anxiety.

Amy was asked to go and stay in Europe with a relative of the Marches’. Jo went to New York and became successful in her writing and had the satisfaction of seeing her work published there. But at home the bitterest blow was yet to fall. Beth had known for some time that she couldn’t live much longer to be with the family and in the spring time she died.

News came from Europe that Amy and Laurie, the grandson of a wealthy neighbor, had planned to be married soon. Now Jo became ever more successful in her writing and got married to Professor Bhaer and soon afterwards founded a school for boys.

And so the little women had grown up and lived happily with their children, enjoying the harvest of love and goodness that they had devoted all their lives to.

1.The members of the March family were Father March, Mrs. March and their ________.

A. five daughters　　 B. four daughters

C. son and four daughters　　 D. son and five daughters

2.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

A. The March Girls　　 B. The March Parents

C. The March Family　　 D. The March Relatives

3.It can be inferred from the passage that the March family had ________.

A. more girls than boys　　 B. wealthy neighbors

C. both happiness and sadness　　 D. a lot of rich relatives

I think it was October, 1982. A friend had business dealings in the city of Reno, Nevada, and I was asked to accompany her on an overnight trip. While she conducted her business, I was aimlessly wandering down Virginia Street, heading into a most gloriously beautiful sunset. I had an urge to speak to someone on the street to share that beauty, but I couldn't make eye contact with anyone. Quickly I ducked into a department store and asked the lady behind the counter if she could come outside for just a minute. She looked at me as though I were from some other planet and said，“Well...”　 Surprisingly, she followed me out.

When she got outside I said to her, “Just look at that sunset! Nobody out here was looking at it and I just had to share it with someone.”

For a few seconds we just looked. Then I said, “God's　 in his heaven and all's right with the world.” I thanked her　 for coming out to see it and sharing the beauty.

Four years later my situation had changed considerably. I　 had come to the end of a twenty­year marriage. I was alone　 and on my own for the first time in my life. One day, while　 my clothes were going around,　 I picked up a Unity Magazine and read an article about a woman who had been　 in similar circumstances. She had come to the end of a　 marriage, moved to a strange community, and the only job　 she could find was one she disliked: cosmetic sales in a　 department store. We had a lot in common.

Then something happened to her that changed everything. She said a woman came into her department store and asked　 her to step outside to look at a sunset. The stranger had said “God's in his heaven and all's right with the world，”and she had realized the truth in that statement and that she　 simply had not been seeing it. From that moment on, she　 turned her life around.

1.Why did the writer duck into a department store?

A.She found it was boring with nobody talking to her.

B.She wanted to buy something for her friend.

C.She wanted to find somebody to share the beautiful sunset.

D.She thought it was her responsibility to share the natural beauty with others.

2.What does the sentence “God's in his heaven and all's right with the world” mean?

A.We should be optimistic in the face of uncertainty.

B.We should believe in God who can help us when we are in trouble.

C.We should never hold the belief that God can change our life.

D.We should be independent and enjoy ourselves in spite of difficulties.

3.What do you think finally changed the writer's attitude towards life?

A.The old magazine she came across.

B.The encouragement from the woman.

C.The sunset they enjoyed four years ago.

D.The woman's story.

4.What may be the best title for the text?

A.Depending on yourself

B.Sharing beauty

C.Struggling every day

D.Never giving up halfway
