The robin (知更鸟) stood on an old climbing plant, and sang his most beautiful song. Suddenly the wind made the plant move, and Mary saw something under the dark green leaves. The thick, heavy plant was covering a door. Mary’s heart was beating fast and her hands were shaking as she pushed the leaves away and found the keyhole. She took the key out of her pocket, and it fit the hole. Using both hands, she managed to unlock the door. Then she turned round to see if anyone was watching. But there was no one, so she pushed the door, which opened, slowly, for the first time in ten years. She walked quickly in and closed the door behind her. At last she was inside the secret garden!
It was the loveliest, most exciting place she had ever seen. There were old rose trees everywhere, and the walls were covered with climbing roses. She looked carefully at the grey branches (枝条). Were the roses still alive? Ben would know. She hoped they weren’t all dead. But she was inside the wonderful garden, in a world of her own. It seemed very strange and silent, but she did not feel lonely at all. Then she noticed some small green shoots coming up through the grass. So something was growing in the garden after all! When she found a lot more shoots in different places, she decided they needed more air and light, so she began to pull out the thick grass around them. She worked away, clearing the ground, for two or three hours, and had to take her coat off because she got so hot. The robin hopped around, pleased to see someone gardening.
1.What did Mary see under dark green leaves?
A. a robin B. a door C. a key D. rose trees
2.How did Mary feel after walking in the secret garden?

Do you see a robin (知更鸟)? Robins are common birds that live in Asia, Europe and Africa. They are small, about 14 centimeters long, with the weight of about 20 grams. They have dark heads and red chests.
A good place to see robins is your own backyard. Robins don’t seem to mind being around people. You may also see robins on lawns (草坪) in parks. They like eating worms and bugs best.
Early in spring, robins build their nests in trees. Some robins can live up to 12 years. These birds may build 20 or even 30 nests in their lifetime! The nests are made of grass, sticks and mud. The mud puts everything together.
The mother robin lays one egg for three or four days. She sits on them to keep them warm. The eggs are blue. After the babies hatch (孵化), both the mother and the father feed them.
Most robins stay at one place through the four seasons. But some of them will fly to southern countries in winter.

He was 11 years old and went fishing every chance he got from the dock at his family's cabin on an island in the middle of a New Hampshire lake.
On the day before the bass season opened, he and his father were fishing early in the evening, catching sunfish and perch(鲈鱼)with worms. Then he tied on a small silver lure(鱼饵)and practiced casting. The lure struck the water and caused colored ripples in the sunset, then silver ripples as the moon rose over the lake.
When his pole doubled over, he knew something huge was on the other end. Finally, he very gingerly lifted the exhausted fish from the water. It was the largest one he had ever seen, but it was a perch . The boy and his father looked at the handsome fish. Then the father lit a match(火柴) and looked at his watch. It was 10 P.M.--- two hours before the season opened. He looked at the fish, then at the boy.
"You'll have to put it back, son," he said.
"Dad!" cried the boy.
"There will be other fish," said his father.
"Not as big as this one," cried the boy.
He looked around the lake. No other fishermen or boats were anywhere around in the moonlight. He looked again at his father. Even though no one had seen them, nor could anyone ever know what time he caught the fish, the boy could know everything by his father's clear voice that the decision could not be changed. He slowly worked the hook(钩) out of the lip of the huge bass and lowered it into the black water.
The creature swished its powerful body and disappeared. The boy suspected that he would never again see such a great fish.
That was 34 years ago. Today, the boy is a successful architect in New York City. His father's cabin is still there on the island in the middle of the lake. He takes his own son and daughters fishing from the same dock.
He was right. He has never again caught such a magnificent fish as the one he landed that night long ago. But he does see that same fish---again and again---every time he comes up against a question of ethics(道德规范).
1.When did the story happen?
A. Early morning B. Late afternoon C. Late night D. In the bass season
2. Why did the father ask his son to put the perch back?
A. Because the father disliked the perch.
B. Because the father was afraid of being fined.
C. Because the ethics must be observed.
D. Because the son was more experience in fishing than his father.
3.When does the architect (the father’s son) think of that perch put back?
A. When he takes his own son and daughters fishing from the same dock.
B. When he builds many famous buildings.
C. When he pays a visit to his old father.
D. When he faces some problems about ethics.
4.Which word can not be used to describe the boy’s father?
A. honest B.unselfish C.serious D. generous
5.From the passage, we can learn _________.
A. how we can get the handsome fish
B. how we master some skills of going fishing
C. how we understand our parents’ words is very important
D. how we do things in good and right ways.
