I want to tell you the story of one of my old friends called Bob. His teachers called him A Troublemaker. They also said that he had no future and no hope. But now he owns a small second-hand bookstore store which makes him enough money to live on and also to support his mother.

He told me that after he finished grade nine, he went to study at a technical college. He was a pretty bad student so he became one of the gang (一帮) leaders there. Many of them got caught many times for fighting.

It looked like nothing could change his life. That was until one sad day when his father died. That changed everything.

After his father died, his mother had to work very hard to make enough money to support the family. He told me that he really pitied his mum after his dad died. He felt that he needed to earn some money rather than let his mum work alone. He loved reading cartoon(卡通) books and had been collecting them for years. As his family was short of money, he decided that he should sell them. He did this by the side of the road where his mother was selling food.

Soon he realized that his books were very popular. So he decided to set up his own business. He started his business by going around buying cartoon books from other people. He bought them for 25% and then sold them for half price. He could make enough money to help support the family.

He was a troublemaker to his teachers but he is a hero to me. If you are judged as a bad student or as someone being stupid, I suggest you pay no attention to what they say. Just do your best in everything. Don’t give up so easily. Believe in yourself. If you think that you can do it, then you can. Believe me, one day you could be more successful than those persons who looked down upon you.

1.What does the author want to tell the readers?

A. How a young man helped his mother.

B. How a young man graduated from college.

C. People can change when they are determined to.

D. People can be successful after they lose a family member.

2.Bob felt that he should change his way of life mainly because he ________.

A. pitied his mother

B. got caught for fighting

C. wanted to work with his mother

D. had to sell food by the roadside

3.Bob decided to start his own business when he ________.

My friend had mentioned the other day that her father had a lot of children's toys he was looking to give away. She knew I have a three-year-old daughter so she thought of me first. I told her I would love it if I could get some nice things for my daughter, which I wouldn't otherwise have been able to afford.

When I met her father, he began to explain he was too poor once and that he would hate to throw away things that can be very useful.

Before he showed me what he was giving away, I thought the toys would be mostly lego's(乐高积木) or things like that. When he was showing me around I saw a bed, a slide, a kitchen set and many other things that just blew my mind. He told me to write a list of everything my daughter could use and as my eyes were wide, he told me not to feel guilty. He said I was helping him by getting rid of the stuff.

As I was looking around I did feel guilty, but I tried to remain more grateful than guilty. Every time I tried to thank him for giving me and my daughter all this wonderful stuff he would thank me right back. I wanted to believe that he was just thanking me so that I wouldn't feel so guilty but in reality I believe that he was as grateful as I was that these toys would be put to good use.

In the eyes of charity, it makes sense to feel grateful, but guilt is just as normal.　 I know that we could have lived without a slide, which is why I do feel guilty, but I am grateful all the same because my daughter really does enjoy all these nice things!

1.Why did the old man want to give away his toys?

A.He wanted to help those poor children.

B.He was wealthy enough to buy new toys.

C.He wanted to make full use of those toys.

D.He needed some space for more useful things.

2.In the writer's opinion, the old man felt grateful because________.

A.he wanted to make her more guilty

B.he wanted her to take the toys quickly

C.the toys would be put to good use

D.he finally got rid of the stuff

3.What can we know from the passage?

A.The writer took all the toys home.

B.The old man was a kind and thoughtful person

C.The writer wanted to refuse the stuff when she first saw them.

D.The writer's daughter enjoyed the slide most among all the stuff.

4.How did the writer feel when given the stuff?

A.Guilty and honored. B.Grateful and respected.

C.Honored and respected. D.Guilty and grateful.

A middle-aged stranger visited us late on a dark rainy night when my father was working the night shift (a job for a period during the night). The stranger asked if he could wait under the eaves of our roof for the rain to stop. Then he disappeared, and we started hearing footsteps and creaking boards in the attic(the space or room at the top of a building, under the roof, often used for storing things). Was the stranger inside our house? My whole body couldn’t help but stiffen. In my mind’s eye, I could imagine the stranger pushing through the attic door and approaching us.

We immediately called Jerry, our neighbor, for help. He searched everywhere, but the visitor was nowhere to be found. As Jerry looked in the garage, he found the stranger lying underneath the car. Jerry exclaimed with fright, “You are not allowed to enter the house. Get off the property right now.”

We were determined to leave the house immediately. As we drove away, we saw the man blocking our way on the road and staring at us. We had to swerve to miss him. After that, I never saw the stranger again.

Attention from strangers is nothing new to me. Questions about my height is the center of almost every public interaction. My friends say my height !s just a physical quality and not a personality aspect. However, when I reflect on my life, I realize that, my height has shaped my character in many ways and has helped to make me who I am.

I learned how to be kind. When I was younger, some parents in my neighborhood regarded me kind of dangerous because I was so much larger than other children my age. I had to be extra welcoming and gentle simply to play with other children. Of course. now my coaches wish I weren’t quite so kind on the basketball court.

I learned the quality of not being too proud about myself. At 7 feet tall, everyone expects me to be an amazing basketball player. They come expecting to see Dirk Nowitzki, and instead they might see a performance more like Will Ferrell(successfully starred a professional basketball player). I have learned to be modest and to work even harder than my fellows to meet their (and my) expectations.

I developed a sense of lightheartedness. When people playfully make fun of my height, 1laugh at myself too. On my first day of high school, a girl dropped her books in a busy hallway. I got down to her level and gathered some of her notebooks. As we both stood up, her eyes widened as I kept rising over her. Astonished, she dropped her books again. Embarrassed, we both laughed and picked up the books a second time.

All of these lessons have defined me. Looking back, I realize that through years of such experiences, I have become a confident, expressive person. Being a 7-footer is both a blessing and a curse, but in the end, accepting who you are is the first step to happiness.

1.Why does the author often draw attention from strangers?

A.He is interested in public interaction.

B.He has a unique personality.

C.He is physically strong.

D.He is extremely tall.

2.When he was young, the author intended to be more friendly just to　　　　　　　 .

A.gain extra favor

B.play with other children

C.prove his kindness

D.please his coach

3.It can be inferred from Para. 3 that　　　　　　 .

A.Dirk Nowitzki was an awful basketball player

B.the author seldom disappointed his basketball fans

C.the author expected to make something better of himself

D.Will Ferrell was better at playing basketball than Dirk Nowitzki

4.What does the text mainly talk about?

A.The height has shaped the author’s personality and life.

B.The height has brought the author a lot of trouble.

C.Some funny experiences the author ever had

D.Being tall benefits the author in many ways
