One Sunday morning, when I was driving along a road, I saw something I couldn’t believe. A little girl, who was less than two years old, was pushing her stroller (嬰兒車(chē)) across the road. The traffic was not heavy that morning.
I stopped my car at once and ran toward her. This little girl knew enough to run from a stranger. I tried to catch her in order that I could get her out of the road.
Suddenly her father came running down a hill across the road from where I had parked my car. He ran right to her and caught her up, saying “bad girl” to her. I picked up the stroller and gave it to him. The father grabbed the stroller and walked toward where he came from without a word.
I went back and sat in my car for a few minutes with my son. My hands were shaking and tears were about to run out of my eyes. “Do you feel cold, Mom?” asked my son. I just shook my head.
After this happened, I thought about how thankful I am. Even though the father didn’t say “Thank you”, I feel that I did something good. Doing something for someone else is pleasing, even when it’s only a matter of being in the right place at the right time.
I didn’t really “save” her, but I feel like it was important that I happened to be there. It is sad that I was the only one who stopped. It really made me a little disappointed that no one else stopped to help.
小題1: The little girl ran away from the author because _____.
A．she wanted to look for her father
B．she wanted to stay on the road
C．she needed to catch her stroller
D．she didn’t know the author at all
小題2:When the author saw the little girl, _____.
A．there weren’t many cars on the road
B．the girl feared to go across the road
C．the girl had lost her way
D．she was driving to work in a hurry

A．The author shared her experience with her son.
B．The author felt sad that no one else helped the girl.
C．The girl’s father didn’t like the girl at all.
D．The girl’s father had wanted to thank the author.
小題4:Why were the author’s hands shaking?
A．Because the weather was very cold at that time.
B．Because she failed to be understood by the girl’s father.
C．Because she was not feeling well.
D．Because she was too excited to keep calm.

小題1:D
小題2:A
小題3:B
小題4:B

I received a call today asking if I would be willing to bring food to a family in need. The mother was having a major operation and would be lying down for several weeks. Of course, I responded with an immediate “Yes！”. As I planned the meal in my head, I reflected on how many times over the years I had been asked to prepare food. I have done so countless times with a very open heart.
But the truly amazing thing is that I have received double over the course of my life. When my mother passed away, our house was filled with fresh dinners for weeks. A woman from the church of our community stopped by each evening with some food. The gift of food was her small way of trying to ease our pain.
Later in my life, when I was on bed rest during my pregnancy with twins, women of the church again stepped in to help. They arranged babysitting for my two­year­old daughter, and brought lovely dinners to our house. Even when I was put in the hospital, my husband would bring cooked meals to my hospital room. How we relied on these dinners to feed my tired husband and young daughter.
Food is all about comfort. It feeds our bodies, but it can also feed our souls. When you hear people talking about their favourite holidays, it usually includes their feelings connected with sharing food.

A few minutes later, the president walked towards the couple with a       face. The lady told him, “We had a son that        Harvard for one year. He loved Harvard. He was        here.

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：不詳 題型：閱讀理解

During the next several weeks I went completely to the wolves. I took a tiny tent and set it up on the shore of bay. The big telescope was set up in the mouth of the tent in such a way that I could observe the wolves by day or night.
Quite by accident I had pitched (set up) my tent within ten yards of one of the major paths used by the wolves. Shortly after I had taken up residence one of the wolves came back and discovered me and my tent, but he did not stop or hesitate in his pace. Later, one or more wolves used the track past my tent and never did they show the slightest interest in me. I felt uncomfortable at being so totally ignored. The next day I noticed a male wolf make boundary markers by passing water on the rounds of his family lands.
Once I had become aware of the strong feeling of property rights which existed among the wolves, I decided to use this knowledge to make them at least recognize my existence. One evening, after they had gone off for their regular nightly hunt I staked out a property of my own, including a long section of the wolves’ path. In order to ensure that my claim would not be overlooked, I made a property mark on stones, dumps of moss, and patches of vegetation with a lot of tea. Before the hunters came back, task was done, and I retired, somewhat exhausted, to observe results. A few minutes later, the leading male appeared. As usual he did not bother to glance at the tent, but when he reached the point where my property line intersected (cut across) the trail, he stopped as suddenly as if he had run into an invisible wall.
Cautiously, he extended his nose and sniffed at one of my marked bushes. After a minute of hesitation he backed away a few yards and sat down. Then, he looked directly at the tent and at me.
His glare seemed to become more fierce as I attempted to stare him down. The situation was becoming intolerable. To break the impasse I turned my back on the wolf. Then quickly and with an air of decision, he turned his attention away from me and began a systematic tour of the area I had staked out as my own. As he came to each boundary marker he sniffed it once or twice, then carefully placed his mark on the outside of mine.
小題1: Why did the wolves manage to ignore the author’s presence?
A．Because his tent was out of the wolves’ estate boundaries.
B．Because the author and the wolves were already good friends.
C．Because they did not know him at all.
D．Because the wolves were afraid of strangers.
小題2: Which is TRUE according to the passage ?
A．The author likes staring matches esp. with wolves.
B．Staking the land was very easy.
C．Wolves can see the estate boundaries clearly with their eyes.
D．The author managed to know why the wolves ignore his presence.
小題3: What was the author’s discovery?
A．Wolves were not settled beasts, as is almost universally believed.
B．Wolves were settled beasts and the possessors of an estate with definite boundaries.
C．Wolves were not interested with strangers.
D．Wolves’ family was dominated by a female.
小題4:Why did the author stake out an area of his own?
A．Because he thought it better to be stared at than to be ignored.
B．Because he didn’t want the wolves to use the track past his tent.
C．Because he wanted the wolves to take cognizance of his existence.
D．Because he wanted to find out how fierce the wolf’s glare was.

Our house was directly across the street from the clinic entrance of John Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore. We lived downstairs and rented the upstairs rooms to the patients at the clinic.
One evening as I was fixing supper, there was a knock at the door. I opened it to see a truly awful looking man. He’s hardly taller than my eight-year-old son. “Good evening. I’ve come to see if you’ve a room. I came for a treatment this morning from the eastern shore, and there’s no bus till morning.” He told me he’d been hunting for a room since noon but with no success. “I guess it’s my face... I know it looks terrible, but my doctor says with a few more treatments...” For a moment I hesitated, but his next words convinced me: “I could sleep in this chair on the porch. My bus leaves early in the morning.”
I told him we would find him a bed. When I had finished the dishes, I talked with him. He told me he fished for a living to support his five children, and his wife, who was hopelessly crippled（殘疾的）from a back injury. He didn’t tell it by way of complaint. Next morning, just before he left, as if asking a great favor, he said, “Could I come back and stay the next time?” He added, “Your children made me feel at home. ”
On his next trip he arrived a little after seven in the morning. As a gift, he brought a big fish and the largest oysters（牡蠣）I had ever seen. I knew his bus left at 4:00 a. m. and I wondered what time he had to get up in order to do this for us.
In the years he came to stay overnight with us and there was never a time that he did not bring us vegetables from his garden. I know our family always will be grateful to have known him; from him we learned how to accept the bad without complaint when facing the misfortune.
小題1:Why did the author agree to let the man spend the night in his house at last?
A．Because the man said others refused to accommodate him.
B．Because the man said he would not cause much inconvenience.

D．Because the man said he had been hunting for a room since noon.
小題2:How long would it take the man to travel from his home to Baltimore by bus?

C．John Hopkins Hospital provided rooms-for the patients to live in
