The story I’m going to tell truly happened in my life.

The other day, I met a man outside the gym who 　 　 a movie star. He was handsome and smiling. His upper body was muscular（肌肉发达的）and he 　 　 to be on top of the world.

“How are you?” I 　 　 with a smile. “I’m doing really well,” he replied in a cheerful voice. His enthusiasm and big smile 　　 　 the parking garage. 　　 　 as he walked up, I 　 　 his long legs were thin and I saw he had a silver cane (手杖). “Why do you need that cane?” I couldn’t　 　　 　 thinking he had a minor injury. “I have MS,” he answered in a　　 　　  voice too, as if his broad smile 　 　 left his face. Multiple Sclerosis（多发性硬化症）is a very serious disease and often painful. I looked at him from my little red sports car and said, “You 　　 　 it very well. You seem like a happy man 　 　 the MS.” Without losing a bit of his smile he replied, “I am a happy man,” and then added, “I’d be even happier if I had that sports 　 　 .”

It was ironic (讽刺的). Just 　 　 we spoke, I’d been sitting in that little sports car, feeling sad about my painful shoulder over the last 11 months as I was 　 　 after an operation. Here’s a man with a 　 　 far tougher than mine, but his positive attitude made him feel no less happiness. He went on with his 　 　 of life as usual, which moved me deeply.

It was also a wonderful reminder of that old 　 　 , “I cried because I had no shoes. Then I met a man who had no feet.” 　 　 your problems, just keep in 　 　 that none of us goes through life 　 　 and you should make the most of what you have, like the man with MS. Count your blessings.

The story I am going to tell you happened about three years ago when I started to learn how to drive. At first, I was very frightened, and I thought I could never learn how to drive a car. Driving a car frightened me because in my home country women never drive, but in the United States every woman has to know how to drive. My husband paid an instructor to teach me how to drive. After that, my husband practiced with me for a long time. My husband always told me that I had to learn. It was important to me and my family.

However, I couldn’t get my license right away. I failed my driving test two times. After practicing for a long time, I decided to go for my third driving test. I had failed my first test because I was very nervous. Everybody encouraged me to continue practicing. Three weeks later, I decided to try it again, but I failed again. After that, I was very embarrassed（困窘的）, and I said I couldn’t get it, so I stopped practicing for a while.

Not knowing how to drive was bad because I couldn’t do anything. I had two kids, my husband works, and I have to take care of everything. Driving was so necessary that I decided to try it again. And finally, that time, I passed the test. Now I have my license. I know how to drive, and it has changed my life in some important ways. Now I’m driving to the college, learning English and hoping I will get a good job in the future.

1.Why did the author think that she could never learn how to drive a car?

2. The underlined word “instructor” in the first paragraph probably means __________.

3. How many persons in the author’s family are mentioned except the author herself?

4.The passage mainly shows us that the author failed for quite a few times but she never gave up and __________.

5.The best title of this passage should be “__________”.

I grew up in New York my whole life. I studied in a perfect college that happened only to be an hour away from home. Then, about three weeks before the spring term was over, my parents told me we were moving to Arizona that summer. They asked me if I was going to transfer (转学) to another college. I said no. I was not going to change everything in my life at one time and I loved my college and all the amazing things I was doing there. It was my second home; I would not leave everything I knew at the same time since that was asking for trouble.

When back at school in New York, it was hard as well. Living close to home was my security blanket. If something was wrong I could get in my car and drive home and see my family. After my family moved to another city, I lacked security and was always controlled by anxiety. However, it helped me learn independence and forced me to be brave.

I' m so thankful that I didn't transfer to a different school, which has given me the opportunity to go back and see best friends in my hometown. A year ago, I officially left my hometown for good. It has helped me grow and I am so thankful that I have had this experience. Now, when I graduate from college, I can go anywhere I want. I am no longer afraid to go out on my own into the world.

This is a true story that happened in Japan. In order to repair the house, a Japanese tore open the walls. Japanese houses normally have an empty space between the wooden walls. When pulling down the walls, he found that there was a lizard(蜥蜴) staying there because a nail(钉子) from outside was hammered into one of its feet. He saw this, feeling pity and curious. When he checked the nail, he found it was nailed 10 years ago when the house was first built.

What happened? The lizard had survived in such a position for 10 years! It has been in a dark wall partition(夹层) for 10 years without moving! Then he wondered how this lizard survived for 10 years without moving a single step—since its foot was nailed! So he stopped his work and observed the lizard: What has it been doing? What and how has it been eating? Later, he didn't know from where another lizard appeared, with food in its mouth. Ah! He was astonished and touched deeply. The free lizard had been feeding it for the past 10 years.

Such love, a beautiful love! Such love happened with this tiny creature… What can love do? It can do wonders! Just think about it: one lizard had been feeding the other for 10 long years, without giving up hope on its partner. If a small creature like a lizard can love like this, just imagine how we can love if we try.

1.How did the Japanese feel when seeing the lizard there?

A. Frightened　　 　　 B. Enjoyable

C. Confused　　　　 　 D. Usual

2.Why did the Japanese stop his work?

A. To watch how long the lizard can still live here.

B. To take out the nail and set the lizard free.

C. To have a rest by watching the lizard.

D. To find out why the lizard had survived there for 10 years.

3.What can we learn from the free lizard?

A. It teaches us never to give up our loved ones.

B. It teaches us to give more help to our loved ones.

C. It tells us to take pity on the stuck lizard.

D. It encourages us to live even longer.

Few things have as large an influence on50the values of a child as the strong pain of lovingly administered shame (羞愧). It helps judge right from wrong and gives a 51emotional (感情的) dimension to moral (道德的) and character issues.
