My brother-in-law opened the bottom drawer of my sister’s bureau（衣橱）and picked out a wonderful skirt. “Jan bought this the first time we went to New York, at least 8 or 9 years ago .She never wore it. She was saving it for a special occasion.” Well, I guess this is the occasion.
He took the skirt from me and put it on the bed. His hands touched the soft material for a moment, then he shut the drawer and turned to me, “Don’t ever save anything for a special occasion. Every day you’re alive is a special occasion.”
I’m still thinking about his words, and they’ve changed my attitude to life. I’m spending more time with my family and friends and less time in committee meetings. Whenever possible, life should be a pattern of experience to enjoy, not suffer. I’m trying to recognize these moments now and treasure them.
“Someday” and “one of these days” are being lost from my vocabulary. If it’s worth seeing or hearing or doing, I want to see and hear and do it now . I’m not sure what my sister would have done if she had known she wouldn’t have tomorrow.
I think she would have called family members and a few close friends. She might have called a few former friends to apologize and mend her fences for past things. I like to think she would have gone out for a Chinese dinner, her favorite food.
If I knew that my hours were limited, those little things left undone would make me angry. Angry because I put off seeing good friends whom I was going to get in touch with someday. Angry and sorry because I didn’t tell my husband and daughter often enough how much I truly love them.
I’m trying very hard not to put off, hold back, or save anything that would add laughter to our lives. And every morning when I open my eyes, I tell myself that every day, every minute, and every breath truly, is…a gift from God.
1.What’s the best title for the passage?
A. Every day is a gift
B. My poor sister
C. Value friendship every day
D. Every day is an important occasion
2.Jan bought the wonderful skirt but didn’t wear it, because( )
A. She wanted to wear it on special occasions
B. She kept it as a special gift for someone else
C. She saved it until she grew older
D. She wanted to keep it as a sweet memory
3.Which of the following is not the writer’s attitude to life?
A. Spending more time staying with family every day.
B. Attending social activities as often as possible
C. Enjoying life and valuing every day.
D. Trying to get along well with friends

Our neighbour’s son was getting married at an out-of-town church, and my husband and I were invited. We immediately rushed out to a store, and I bought a nice pink dress with a jacket. The dress was a little tight, but I had a month to go before the June 30 wedding and that would be all right for me.
June 29 came and, of course, I hadn’t lost a single pound; in fact I had gained two. But I thought a nice new girdle (紧身衣）would cure everything. So on our way out of the city we stopped once again at the store. I ran in and told the clerk I needed a size large party girdle. The clerk found the box with the describe girdle marked “LG", and asked if I would like to try it on. “Oh, no, a large will fit just right. I needn’t try it on.”
The next morning was rather hot, one of those thirty-four-degree days, I suppose, so I waited to get dressed until about 45 minutes before time to go. I popped open the box only to find a new girdle in a small size. Since it was too late to find another one and the dress wouldn't fit right without a girdle, a fight broke out in the hotel room between me and the girdle. Have you ever tried to shake 20 pounds of potato into a five-pound bag? That’s it. Finally my husband, laughing like crazy, got hold of each side and shook me down into it. At once I put on the pink dress, which didn't go very well with my red face, and was ready to go.
Finally we got to the church. I heard one of the people say that they were having a High Mass., turned to my husband and asked, “What is a High Mass?*' he shrugged his shoulders .
Unfortunately, I learned that this particular mass would last one hour, twenty-two minutes and eight and one half seconds—the priest (神甫)was going to bless everything except my girdle.
1.Why didn't the writer buy a loose dress?
A. Because she was too thin.
B. Because it was too hot then.
C. Because she thought she could become a little thin within a month.
D. Because a tight one was a little cheaper.
2.What does the writer want to express by saying “Have you ever tried to shake 20 pounds of potato into a five-pound bag”？
A. How difficult it was to shake 20 pounds of potato into a five-pound bag
B. The difficulty I had in patting on the tight dress.
C. How foolish I was to put on such tight dress.
D. How foolish I was to put so many potatoes in such a bag.
3.Which word can be best described the author?
A. optimistic (乐观的） B. beautiful
C. ugly D. careless
