I’m lying on my back in my grandfather’s orchard (果園),looking up at the branches above me.It is one of the last days of summer.Already the days are shorter and the nights are cooler.Some kinds of apples are already ripe (成熟的).Others will be ready to pick soon.I think of my grandmother’s apple pie,and how I used to make it with her.She died last year,before the apple harvest,and I have not had her pie since.I really miss her.I hear bees busily humming about,visiting the late summer flowers.The gentle hum of their wings nearly sends me to sleep.
The sky is as blue as my grandfather’s eyes.Above me,big white clouds race across the sky like pieces of cotton blowing in the wind.School starts in another week,and time seems to have slowed down.
“Sophie!” calls my grandfather.“Is that you?” I stand up,take his hand,and tell him all about my day as we walk through the orchard.We talk about apples,and bees,and Grandma.He tells me that he misses her too.
He puts his rough,brown farmer’s hand around my shoulder and pulls me close.“You know,Sophie,” he says,“I spent the morning in the attic (閣樓),and you’ll never guess what I found.It’s the recipe (烹飪法) for Grandma’s apple pie.I used to help her make it sometimes.I can’t do it all alone,but you used to help her too.Maybe between the two of us,we can work it out.Want to try?”
“But it won’t be the same without Grandma,” I tell him.
“That’s true,” he says,“but nothing_is_the_same_without_Grandma.Still,I don’t think that she would want us never to have another apple pie.What do you say?” I nod yes,and we walk towards home...towards an afternoon in the farmhouse kitchen,making Grandma’s famous apple pie.

Jerry was a manager in a restaurant. He was always in a good mood(脾氣)and always had something positive to say. This really made me curious, so one day I asked him, "It's hard to be a positive person all of the time. How do you do it?'' Jerry replied ,"Each morning I wake up and say to myself, "Jerry, you can choose to be in a good mood or a bad mood," and I choose to be in a good mood. Life is all about what you choose. And what you choose leads your life."
Several years later, I heard that Jerry left the back door open one morning and was robbed(搶劫).While trying to stop the thief ,he was shot. I went to see him in the hospital. When I asked him how he was, he replied, "If I were any better, I'd be twins." "Weren't you scared when you were in danger?" I asked. "Yes. The doctors kept telling me that I was going to be fine, but in their eyes, I read. "He's dead." I knew I needed to take action." "What did you do?" "Well. there was a big nurse asking me if I was allergic(過敏的)to anything. "Yes,' I replied ."Bullets(子彈)!Everyone laughed and I told them: I am choosing to live. Operate on me as if I am alive." Jerry lived thanks to the great doctors ,and also because of his amazing attitude(態(tài)度).Attitude ,after all ,is everything.

科目:初中英語 來源:2013-2014學(xué)年江蘇省無錫市九年級上學(xué)期第一次階段性測試英語試卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解
When I was about 12, I had an enemy (敵人), a girl who liked to point out my shortcomings (缺點). Week by week her list grew: I was very thin; I wasn’t a good student; I talked too much; I was too proud (驕傲), and so on. I tried to hear all these as long as I could. At last, I became very angry. I ran to my father with tears in my eyes.
He listened to me quietly. Then he asked, “Are the thing she said true or not? Janet, didn’t you ever think about what you are really like? Well, you now have that girl’s opinion. Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things she said.”
I did as he told me. To my great surprise, I discovered that about half the things were true. Some of them I couldn’t change (like being very thin), but a good number I could --- and suddenly I wanted to change. For the first time I got a very clear picture of myself.
I brought the list back to Daddy. He wouldn’t like to take it. “That is just for you,” he said, “You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself. But you have to learn to listen, not just close your ears in anger and feeling hurt. When something said about you is true, you will find it will be of help to you. Our world is full of people who think they know your duty. Don’t shut your ears. Listen to them all, but hear the truth and do the right thing.”
Daddy’s advice has returned to me at many important periods. In my life, I have never had a better piece of advice.
1.Which do you think would be the best title (標(biāo)題) for this passage?
A. Not An Enemy, But the Best Friend B. The Best Advice I’ve Ever Had
C. My Father D. My Childhood
2.Why did the writer’s father listen to her quietly? Because__________.
A. he believed that most of what his daughter’s “enemy” said was true.
B. he had been so angry with his daughter’s shortcomings that he wanted to show this by keeping quiet for some time
C. he knew that his daughter would not listen to him at that moment
D. he wasn’t quite sure which girl was telling the truth
3.What did the father do after he had heard his daughter’s complaint?
A. He told her not to pay any attention to what her “enemy” had said.
B. He criticized(批評) her and told her to overcome (克服) her shortcomings.
C. He told her to write down all that her “enemy” had said about her and pay attention only to the things that were true.
D. He wouldn’t like to take the list and have a look at it.
4.What does “I got a very clear picture of myself” mean?
A. I had my picture taken and this time it was a very clear one.
B. I asked someone to draw a very clear picture of myself.
C. The picture I got this time was clearer than those I had got before.
D. I came to know myself very clearly this time.
