Having returned from her round trip, the angry woman stood outside the ticket office of the station. “The railway should pay me back￡12, so you owe me the money,” she said to Harry Jenks, the young man who was working at the office. “You sold me a ticket for May 22nd, but there was no ship from Jersey that night. So my daughter and I had to stay in a hotel. It cost me ￡12.”
Harry was worried. He remembered selling the woman a return ticket. “Come into the office, Madam,” he said politely, “I’ll just check the Jersey timetable for May 22nd.”
The woman and her little girl followed him inside. She was quite right, as Harry soon discovered. There was no sailing on May 22nd. How could he have made such a careless mistake? He shouldn’t have sold her a ticket for that day. Wondering what to do, he smiled at the child. “You look sun burnt,” he said to her, “Did you have a nice holiday in Jersey?”
“Yes,” she answered, shyly, “The beach was lovely. And I can swim, too!”
“That’s fine,” said Harry. “My little girl can’t swim a bit yet. Of course, she’s only three…”
“I’m four,” the child said proudly, “I’ll be four and a half.”
Harry turned to the mother. “I remember your ticket, Madam,” he said, “But you didn’t get one for your daughter, did you?”
“Er, well…”woman looked at the child, “I mean… she hasn’t started school yet. She’s only four.”
“A four-year-old child must have a ticket, Madam. A child’s return ticket to Jersey costs…let me see…￡13.50. So if the railway pays your hotel, you will owe￡1.50. The law is the law, but since the fault was mine…”
1.What happened to the woman?
A. She had to buy the return ticket in Jersey.
B. She had to return home a day earlier.
C. She had to stay in a hotel for one night.
D. She couldn’t use the ticket for the round trip.
2.Which of the following is true?
A. Harry’s daughter could swim very well.
B. The Jersey timetable was totally wrong.
C. Actually, the little girl didn’t need a ticket.
D. The little girl was satisfied with the holiday.
3.Harry started talking to the little girl because he _________.
A. did not know what to do
B. wanted to be friendly to her
C. had a little girl about the same age
D. wanted to find a way out from her
4.According to the passage, we know that Harry was _________.
A. careful B. hard-working
C. serious D. smart
5.What would be the end of the story?

D. The woman would stop arguing and leave.

Two children stood outside the door with old coats. “Any old papers, Lady?” asked one of them.
I was busy. I wanted to say no, but I saw that their shoes were broken and wet. “Come in and I’ll make you a cup of hot tea.” They came in, saying nothing. Their shoes left snow on the floor.
I gave them tea and bread to protect them against the cold outside. Then I went back to the kitchen and started my housework again.
The silence in the front room surprised me. I looked in.
The girl held the empty cup in her hands, looking at it. The boy asked me in a low voice, “Lady, are you rich?”
Am I rich? Oh, no! I looked at my old things in my room.
The girl put her cup back in its saucer(茶碟) carefully. “Your cups match your saucers.”
They left then, holding their papers against the wind. They hadn’t said thank you. They didn’t need to. They had done more than that. The blue cups and saucers were simple. But they said that they matched. The potatoes and meat before me, a roof over our hands, my husband with a job—these things matched, too.
I moved the chairs back from the fire and cleaned the living room. The prints of their small shoes were still wet on my floor. I let them be. I wanted them there to remind me how rich I was.
1.The writer let the two children in _________.
A. to offer them some warm clothes B. to serve them tea and food
C. to sell them some old papers D. to show them how rich she was.
2.We can learn from the passage that_______.
A. the writer was in fact not very rich
B. the children took away many old papers
C. the writer’s husband was out of work
D. the two children were looking for a job
3. It can be inferred(推断) from the passage that _______.
A. it was snowing outside when the story happened
B. the two children thanked the writer and then left
C. the two children were not polite to the writer
D. the writer had a set of new furniture in her house
4.The underlined sentence “I let them be” means “_________”.
A. I dislike them B. I didn’t want to see them
C. I cleaned them D. I left them there
5. What’s the best title of the passage?
