One midnight, a little girl woke up to pass water. She by herself got up and down her bed, walked to the bedroom door and opened it. She looked outside and walked back, for it was so dark in the hall that she feared.

Her mother said, “Don’t be afraid, honey. Take courage!”

“What’s courage?” she asked, running to her mother’s bed.

“Courage is the brave breath,” her mother answered.

“Mum, do you have courage?”

“Certainly.”

The girl held out her little hands, saying, “Mum, blow some of your breath of courage to me.”

After her mother blew out two mouthfuls of breath into her little cold hands, the little girl clenched her fists(握拳) nervously, afraid that the “breath of courage” would run away. Then with her fists clenched, she walked out of the bedroom towards the bathroom with nothing to fear.

Her mother said to herself, “It will be nice if someone can blow some kind of ‘breath’ to me. Then I can hold it in my hands too when I feel terrified or lost.”

In fact, mostly, what we are terrified of is nothing but the fear in our mind. Who we should defeat(战胜) is nobody but ourselves.

1.The girl walked back because __________.

A. the bathroom was too far away.                  B. her mother wouldn’t go with her

九年级英语阅读理解中等难度题查看答案及解析

A little boy came up to his mother in the kitchen one evening while she was cooking supper, and passed her a piece of paper that he had written something on. After his mom dried her hands on an apron (围裙), she read what it was on the paper .

For cutting the grass: $5.00

For cleaning up my room this week: $1.00

For looking after my little brother while you went shopping: $1.00

For taking out the trash: $1.00

For getting a good report card: $5.00

For cleaning up the garden: $2.00

Total: $16.00

Well, his mother looked at him for a while, and then she picked up the pen, turned over the paper he’d written on, and this was what she wrote:

For the nine months I carried you while you were growing inside me, free.

For all the nights that I’ve sat up with you, fed you and sung songs for you, free.

For all the tears (泪水) that you’ve caused through the years, free.

For all the nights that were filled with worries, free.

For the toys, food, clothes and even cleaning your nose, free.

Son, when you add it up, the full cost of my love is free.

When the boy finished reading what his mother had written, there were tears in his eyes and he looked straight at his mother and said, “Mom, I sure do love you.” And then he took the pen and in great big letters he wrote: "PAID IN FULL".

根据短文内容，判断下列句子的正误。正确的填“T”，错误的填“F”，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑（将答案写在答题卷的相应位置上）。
