Some years ago, on a hot summer day in south Florida, a little boy decided to go for a swim in the cold swimming hole behind his house.

In a hurry to dive into the cool water, he did not realize an alligator（短吻鳄）was swimming towards the shore. His mother in the house, looking out of the window, saw the two as they got closer and closer together. In fear, she ran towards the water, yelling to the son as loudly as she could.

It was too late. The alligator reached him.

From the dock, the mother grabbed her little boy by the arms just as the alligator got his legs. That began an incredible tug of war（拔河）between the two. The alligator was much stronger than the mother, but the mother would not let go. A farmer happened to drive by, heard her screams, ran from his truck, and shot the alligator.

Amazingly, after weeks and weeks in the hospital, the little boy survived. His leg were extremely scarred by the animal’s attack, and on his arms were scratches (抓痕) from mothers’ fingernails where she had tried to hang on to the son she loved.

The newspaper reporter who interviewed the boy asked if he would show him his scars. The boy lifted his pant legs . And then, he proudly said to the reporter: “But look at my arms. I have great scars on my arms, too. I have them because my mom would not let go.”

You and I can identify with (理解) that little boy. We have scars, too. No, not from alligator, or anything quite so dramatic . But the scars of a painful past. Some of those scares are ugly and have caused us deep regret.

But some wounds, my friend, are because someone has refused to let go. In your struggle, maybe someone has been there holding on to you.

1.Upon seeing the alligator getting close to her boy, the mother ________ .

A. dived into the cool water at once

B. was too afraid to move

On a hot summer’s day Jonathan and his classmates were anxiously sitting in their classroom, waiting for the final bell of the day to sound. Jonathan prayed that the bell would ring soon, because he wanted to quickly run home before the three huge, fat, smelly bullies (地痞) could see him. Every day the three bullies would wait there for an innocent school kid to tease and bully.

The moment the bell sounded, Jonathan rushed out with his bag. He sped off across the school field and out onto the walkway. However, all of his effort was useless because leaning on a fence were the three bullies.

Jonathan thought about crossing the street next to him, but it would be too risky. So he hid behind a small bush in hope that the three would leave. But he moved too quickly and was seen by one of the bullies. They approached him then.

One bully grabbed Jonathan by the collar of his shirt and grabbed the money out of Jonathan’s pocket and put it into his own.

“G-Give it back”, Jonathan weakly said.

“G-G-Give it b-back”, mocked (为了取笑而模仿) the bully. The other two bullies laughed.

Beside them was a small dirty stream.

“Let’s throw him in there”, said one of the bullies.

Then they threw Jonathan into the stream and walked off down the walkway. Jonathan shakily picked himself up out of the creek and continued his walk home with his head down and tears in his eyes. He dared not cry because he knew boys didn’t cry.

Jonathan arrived at his house where his mother was waiting outside the front door with an angry look on her face.

“Why are you so late and dirty?” she asked curiously.

“I slipped”, he quietly replied.

1.Why did Jonathan run home immediately after school?

A. Because his mother was strict with him.

B. Because he was afraid of his mother.

C. Because he had to escape being bullied

D. Because he didn’t like to go to school.

2.How did the bullies find Jonathan?

A. They ran after him till they caught up with him.

B. They waited on Jonathan’s way home by chance.

C. One of the bullies noticed Jonathan hiding himself.

D. Jonathan was given away by one of his classmates.

3.Jonathan didn’t tell the truth to his mother because ______.

A. he felt ashamed after being bullied

B. he wanted to be considered a boy

C. he didn’t dare to tell it to his mother

D. he was not allowed to play in the creek
