11.It was a cold winter.The wind blew all night and the snow was blinding.When morning came,my three children and I got up and made our way to the windows facing north.The wind blew hard from the west,and the snow made it har d for us to see the henhouse.
As we looked out the window,we saw that the henhouse was gone.Our three hens had been blown away by the cold wind.
I looked at the emptiness outside.Then I saw all three chickens sat around the edge of a white bucket.I couldn't believe my eyes!How was this violent wind not blowing them into the field beyond?I threw open the back room closet door and pulled on my husband Roger's long snow pants and heavy winter coat.
I pulled the hood up,wrapped a scarf around my neck and stuck my feet into Roger's very large boots.
I shouted at the wind as it blew.I was alone,save for my children.They stared out the window into the vast white sea of snow,their eyes peeled for any sign of movement.
Outside I heard the sound of my boots as I walked against the wind.This wind was strong.
Getting to the'white,almost invisible bucket was difficult.
As the snow circled around me,I steadily made my way to the soft cluck-cluck-cluck sound my hens always made.When I reached them,I saw that their little feet were holding on to the edge of the bucket,heads bent forward and away from the wind.
I quickly unzipped Roger's heavy coat,gently lifted each hen and put it carefully into the warm inside.Then I began the freezing walk back to the small shed directly behind our house.
The doors to the shed were difficult to open,but somehow I managed to pull them apart.One by one I laid my chickens on the cold floor,and they began to cluck softly.
As I shut the shed doors,my eyes went directly to the window where my children were watching.They jumped up and down cheering,and so did I!
I wasn't some dragon slayer from a fairy tale.I was simply a mom,but the look on my children's faces told me that they thought I was a hero mom.

6.When I was a little girl,my mother told me to wait for the light to turn green before I crossed the street.This I did.Indeed,I was positive as a young child that I would get crushed like a potato if I ever stepped a foot off the sidewalk while the light was red.I followed my mother's advice until I realized that she herself went through red lights always pulling me with her.So after a while I followed her example and not her advice.
And this was just part of the story.I was out of high school before the picture began to pull together.I absorbed the knowledge little by little through the years.And me,my friends and I,did come to take it for granted.Parents were that way.Older people were that way.And most of us accepted it as part of life.
Now I am grown up and I have my own children.For the longest time I pulled my little daughter across the middle of the street-just like my mother used to do-warning her,"Don't do this when I'm not with you."
Webster says such behavior is hypocrisy(虛偽),that is,pretending to be better than we are.Is this because we always want to be better?Or only that we want to fool people into thinking that we are?When we practice a religion which causes a concern for our fellow men,do we purposefully march out of church and refuse to rent an apartment to a black family?Or do we all live on two tracks because we have,somewhere along the line,come to the conclusion that such hypocrisy is essential to our survival in soc iety at this time?
33.The writer mainly talks aboutBin the passage.
A.safety education for children               
B.some of her understanding of life
C.the lack of traffic rules                   
D.essential survival skills

A.her mother's behavior didn't agree with her words
B.her mother's advice proved to be completely wrong

20.The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is a literary masterpiece written in 1876by the famous writer Mark Twain.The story line is simple.The book is like a biography(自傳)of a summer in Tom Sawyer's life.
Tom Sawyer is a smart but naughty young boy living in the small town on the Mississippi River.He is an orphan and lives with his aunt.He has many clever ideas,but doesn't like school,and always likes to escape the school to fish.Tom has a trusted friend,Huck Finn,who few of the adults approve of.Tom Sawyer and Finn have great adventures on the Mississippi River,pretending to be pirates(海盜),attending their own funeral(葬禮),and witnessing a murder(謀殺).Tom overcomes fear and appears in court and speaks out the murderer.He and his friends finally discover a lot of treasures and they become millionaires…
Mark Twain's writing is based on his own childhood and his personal experience.What makes this story great is that Tom Sawyer represents everything that is great about childhood.It is a story filled with action,adventure,ingenious ideas,love,and schoolyard politics.The whole story is seemingly a complication of what Twain did or wished to do during his childhood.
The book is a little difficult to read at first.Perhaps,it will take you a little while to get used to the 19th century dialect(方言) in the book.But on the whole,the book is an enjoyable read for people of all ages.I highly recommend (推薦)this book for anyone looking forward to feeling young again.

12.Which of the following is NOT true about Tom?C
A.He often escapes the school.
B.He has a trusted friend.
C.He is a good student.
D.Both of his parents died when he was young.
13.According to the passage,the story is concerned with the following things EXCEPTD.
A.love        B.schoolyard politics   
C.a(chǎn)ction      D.power
14.The author's purpose of writing this passage is toD.
A.let readers know Mark Twain            
B.remind people of their childhood
C.tell the story of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer
D.recommend the book to readers
15.Which of the following is NOT true?B
A.Tom Sawyer prefers fishing to going to school.
B.The story is about Mark Twain's personal experience.
C.There is 19th century dialect in the book.
D.The whole story seemingly represents what Twain did or wished to do during his childhood.
