Tomorrow evening I will be interviewed on stage by a museum official. I will be an interpreter, talking from experience as a disability rights lawyer and activist.
In “special” schools and camps for children with physical and mental disabilities, I grew up knowing we were a category of person that the world did not want. Most of us had a story of some doctor advising our parents to put up away or to let us die. We owed our survival to parents who had irrationally(不理性地) bonded with us. We knew we were lucky and hoped our luck would hold. To increase the chance of surviving, we tended to be charming. We developed thick skins.
By the time I roll onto the stage the next night, I’ve thought a lot about there and here, then and now. When the first question comes, I tell them about my fascination with the wheelchair, and somehow it sounds funny, and laughter fills the room. We talk from the horror of Nazis killing (Nazis once killed the disabled patients as useless) to a funny confession that I, too, tend to stare at disabled people on the street.
What has come over me? In this room, people with disabilities in thrilling variety make me feel at home. Here people, disabled and not, are gathered by choice.
I haven’t forgotten that 2 million people remain in US disability institutions, that some disabled children still cannot attend mainstream schools, that too many of us live in poverty. But I can’t hold onto anger and sorrow for I feel a shared sense of possibility, a drive for a world that will embrace both the fit and the unfit and hold them so dear that the division dies.
小題1:What’s the author according to the passage?
A．A disabled lawyer.

D．growing more slowly than others
小題3:The second paragraph is mainly focused on ________.
A．the growth of the disabled people
B．the hatred of the disabled people
C．the love of the disabled people
D．the appreciation of the disabled people
小題4:It can be sensed but not clearly stated that the author________.
A．likes to be interviewed in a museum
B．can tell funny stories
C．has charming personality
D．is humorous and optimistic

Many people influenced various aspects of my life, based on their personal characteristics, accomplishments and values. I have been fortunate to have had numerous teachers and professors who I respect for their patience and intelligence. There are artists that have inspired me by their natural talents and original creativity. I value many political leaders, who have inspired me by their contributions to society, and their ability to change our futures. But of all the people I have known in my life, the person I admire most is my father.
As the youngest girl in my family, I always considered myself to be “Daddy's little girl”. While I grew up, it always made me sad to see so many of my friends and neighbors without a father or father-like figure around. This helped me appreciate how my father always takes an interest in his children's lives. In every aspect of my life my father continuously pushes me to excel, so I could accomplish my work outstandingly among my people. Whenever I feel like giving up, or have a question or a concern, I know I can always call on him for advice. From him I have also learned that sometimes you have to put others' needs ahead of your own, but you should make sure you are not taken advantage of by others. His strength seems to be unbreakable during hard times, and he is extremely determined to accomplish anything he sets his mind on, no matter how tiny it is. I highly respect him for how he stands up for what he believes in, and will never back down. I have always admired his open mind, compassion(同情) for people, and sense of understanding. He is a very reserved(保守的) man, but to everybody's surprise, he has a great sense of humor, and always knows how to put a smile on the faces of his wife, his children and his friends.
Living in his affection and instruction, I am very proud of my father. He also professes how proud he is of his children, and is still there to support us in whatever we are involved in.
小題1:Which of the following could not be used to describe the author's father?
A．Considerate and humorous.B．Affectionate and open-minded.
C．Energetic and helpful.D．Learned and fashionable.
小題2:Which of the following can best explain the underlined word“excel”?
A．Show off.B．Do better than others.
C．Be cleverer than others.D．Keep healthy.
小題3:According to the underlined part, the father was telling the author to _________
A．try to be good to those who were worth making friends with.
B．try to take advantage of those who were friendly to her.
C．think about others and help them, but not to be made use of in a negative way.
D．think about others and help them, so that she could make them serve her.
小題4: What can we infer about the author?
A．She appreciated her father because he solved all the problems for her.
B．She considered her father humorous and was often made to laugh by him.
C．She was outstanding in work because her father pushed her hard.
D．She had compassion for the fatherless.

Bobby was sitting out in his back yard in the snow. The thin sneakers he wore had a few holes in them. Try as he might, he could not come up with an idea for his mother’s Christmas gift.
Ever since his father had passed away three years ago, his mother worked nights at the hospital, but the small wage could only be stretched so far.
What the family lacked in money and material things, they more than made up for in love and family unity. They ran the household in their mother’s absence. All three of his sisters had already made beautiful gifts for their mother.
It was Christmas Eve already, and he had nothing. Bobby started to walk down to the street. He walked from shop to shop. Everything seemed so beautiful and so out of reach. It was starting to get dark, then suddenly his eyes caught a shiny dime. Never has anyone felt so wealthy as Bobby did at that moment.
He went inside a flower shop. When the owner asked if he could help him, Bobby presented the dime and asked if he could buy one flower. The shop owner looked at Bobby, then said, “You just wait here and I’ll see what I can do for you.”
The shop owner returned holding red roses all tied together with a big silver bow. Bobby’s heart sank as the owner placed them gently into a long white box. “That will be ten cents, young man,” said the shop owner, reaching out his hand for the dime. Slowly, Bobby moved his hand to give the man his dime.
Then the shopkeeper’s wife appeared. “Where are the roses you were fixing?”
The shop owner replied, “A strange thing happened to me this morning. I thought I heard a voice telling me to set aside a dozen of my best roses for a special gift. I wasn’t sure at the time whether I had lost my mind or what, but I set them aside anyway. When I saw that little boy tonight, I knew who that voice was.”
小題1:According to the first three paragraphs we know that _____.
A．Bobby’s sisters didn’t help Bobby to buy a gift
B．Bobby had known what gift he’d give to his mother
C．the children in the family all loved their mother
D．Bobby’s family was rich before his father died
小題2:Why did Bobby walk along the street?
A．Because he didn’t know what to do.
B．Because he wanted to try his luck there.
C．Because he wanted to get some money.
D．Because he hoped to see what he could get.
小題3:What could he buy with a dime then?
A．A flower.B．Nothing.C．A piece of cake.D．Many flowers.
小題4:Bobby slowly gave the dime to the shop owner because _______.
A．he did not want any rose flowers
B．the flowers weren’t worth a dime
C．the shop owner would cheat him
D．he hardly believed what had happened
小題5:From the last two paragraphs we can infer that the shop owner ______.
