Thirteen can be a challenging age. Not only did I have to adapt to my changing body, I also had to deal with my parents’ bitter divorce, a new family and the upsetting move from my country home to a crowded town.
When we moved, my beloved companion, a small brown pony had to be sold. I was heartbroken and terribly lonely. I couldn’t eat or sleep and cried all the time. Finally, realizing how much I missed my pony, my father bought me another horse, Cowboy.
Cowboy was without doubt the ugliest horse in the world. But I didn’t care. I loved him beyond all reason.
I joined a riding club. When Cowboy and I entered the events where the horse was judged by appearance, we were quickly “shown the gate”. I knew nothing could turn Cowboy into a beauty. My only chance to compete would be in the timed speed events. I chose the jumping race.
For the whole next month we practiced running and jumping for hours in the hot sun and then I would walk Cowboy home, totally exhausted.
All of our hard work didn’t make me feel confident by the time the show came. One girl named Becky rode a big brown horse in the race events. She always won the blue ribbons. I sat at the gate and sweated all out while I watched Becky and her horse charge through the court and finish in first place.
My turn finally came. At the signal, we dashed toward the first fence, jumped over it without trouble and raced on to the next one. Cowboy then flew over the second, third and fourth fences like a bird and I turned him toward the finish line.
No cheers filled the air. The end of our run was met with surprised silence. Cowboy and I had beaten Becky and her fancy horse by two seconds.
I gained much more than a blue ribbon that day. At thirteen, I realized that no matter what the odds are, I’d always come out a winner if I wanted something badly enough to work for it. I can be the owner of my fate.
1.Why did the author like Cowboy so much in spite of its ugliness?
A. Because she loved horses more than anything else.
B. Because Cowboy was a strong and smart young horse.
C. Because Cowboy had a lot in common with her pony.
D. Because she was sad and lonely and needed a companion.
2.The audience fell into silence at the end of the run probably because .
A. they didn’t expect Cowboy would win the event
B. they were unhappy that Becky was beaten in the event
C. they didn’t like cowboy, for it was too ugly
D. they never saw a horse running as fast as Cowboy
3.After the competition, the author came to realize that .
A. she ought to gather the courage to solve all the problems
B. it was time to forget her pony and treat Cowboy better
C. she needed to work harder to win more blue ribbons
D. she could be the god of her own fate if she tried hard enough
4.It can be inferred from the story that .
A. all of their hard training was totally in vain
B. a blue ribbon must be the second highest prize
C. Cowboy lost in the event of being judged by appearance
D. both Becky and the author won in the jumping event

D
A fish may not be the first creature that comes to mind when co-operation in the animal world is mentioned, but a new study has shown the caring behavior of one sea species. Scientists have found that pairs of rabbitfishes will help and support each other while feeding. While such behavior has been recorded for birds and mammals, it had formerly been thought to be impossible for fishes to exhibit the same features.
"We found that rabbitfish pairs manage their caring activity quite firmly, thus providing safety for their partner that is looking for food," says Dr. Simon Brandl. "In other words, one partner stays ‘on guard’ while the other feeds – these fishes just watch each others’ back," Dr. Brandl says. "This behavior is so far unique among fishes and appears to be based on reciprocal cooperation between pair members."
Reciprocal cooperation, which requires an investment in a partner that is later reciprocated(報答), is supposed to require complex cognitive and social skills — something that fishes had been considered not to have until now.
Dr. Brandl says the research shows clear support and presents interesting evidence for reciprocal support between the rabbitfish pairs.
"There has been a long debate about whether reciprocal cooperation can exist in animals that lack the highly developed cognitive and social skills found in humans and a few species of birds and primates," he said. "By showing that fishes — which are commonly considered to be cold, unsocial, and unintelligent — are able to have reciprocal cooperative systems, we provide evidence that cooperation may not be as special as earlier expected."
Professor Bellwood says that our opinion of fishes as cold creatures is slowly changing. "Our findings should further cause efforts to understand fishes as highly developed organisms with complex social behaviors. This may also require a change in how we study and treat fishes."
【題文1】 What does the first paragraph imply?
A. Rabbitfishes almost act like birds and mammals.
B. Fishes don’t belong to the animal world at all.
C. Fishes have the ability to feed each other.
D. The caring behavior is impossible for fishes.
【題文2】While one rabbitfish feeds, the other one _________.
A. is protecting its partner from any danger B. is carrying some food for its partner
C. is looking for more food for its partner D. is hiding behind the back of its partner
【題文3】 What did people use to think about fishes?
A. They have the same behaviors. B. They show no feelings for others.
C. They have high social skills. D. They support each other all the time.
【題文4】What can we infer from what Bellwood said?
A. We should change our way of eating fish.
B. The behaviors of fishes are difficult to learn.
C. More efforts are needed to understand fish.
D. Our study of social behaviors should be careful.
