It was a very foggy day in London. The fog was so thick that it was impossible to see more than a foot or so. Buses, cars and taxis were not able to run and were standing by the side of the road. People were trying to find their way about on foot but were losing their way in the fog. Mr. Smith had a very important meeting at the House of Commons and had to get there but no one could take him. He tried to walk there but found he was quite lost. Suddenly he bumped into a stranger. The stranger asked if he could help him. Mr. Smith said he wanted to get to the Houses of Parliament. The stranger told him he would take him there. Mr. Smith thanked him and they started to walk there. The fog was getting thicker every minute but the stranger had no difficulty in finding the way. He went along one street, turned down another, crossed a square and at last after about half an hour’s walk they arrived at the Houses of Parliament. Mr. Smith couldn’t understand how the stranger found his way. “It is wonderful,” he said. “How do you find the way in the fog?”
“It is no trouble at all to me,” said the stranger, “I am blind.”
小題1:According to the passage, we can infer that “bump into” means _______.
A.knock off
B.meet by chance
C.strike
D.traffic accident
小題2:Which of the following statements are NOT true?
A.The stranger has a better sight than Mr. Smith.
B.Heavy fog can cause traffic accidents.
C.It’s easy to get lost in a foggy day.
D.The fog was getting thicker and thicker.
小題3:Why is it no trouble at all to the stranger to find the way in the fog?
A.Because he is a local inhabitant of London.
B.Because he lives next to the Houses of Parliament.
C.Because he is familiar with the route.
D.Because he finds the way not by sight but by heart.
小題4:This article mainly tells us that ________.
A.London is a foggy city.
B.Mr. Smith works for the government.
C.A blind stranger led the way for Mr. Smith in a foggy day.
D.Mr. Smith had a very important meeting and lost his way in the fog.

Hemingway(1898~1961) was born in Illinois. His family took him, as a boy, hunting and fishing trips and so made him know early the kinds of virtues, such as courage and endurance (忍耐), which were later shown in his stories. After high school, he worked as a newspaper reporter and then went abroad to take part in World War I. After the war, he lived for several years in Paris. It was not long before he began publishing remarkable short stories. In the year he left Paris he published the powerful novel The Sun Also Rises.

“Can I see my baby?” the happy new mother asked. When the bundle was in her arms and she moved the fold of cloth to look upon his tiny face, she gasped. The doctor turned quickly and looked out of the tall hospital window. The baby had been born without ears.
Time proved that the baby’ s hearing was perfect. It was only his appearance that was imperfect. When he rushed home from school one day and threw himself into his mother’s arms, she sighed(嘆息), knowing that his life was to be misfortunate. He cried to his mum “A boy, a big boy... called me a freak (怪人).”
He grew up, handsome. A favorite with his fellow students, he might have been class president, but for that. He developed a gift, a talent for literature and music. “But you might communicate with other young people,” his mother blamed him, but felt a kindness in her heart.
Two years went by. One day, his father said to the son, “You’ re going to the hospital, son. Mother and I have someone who will donate the ears you need. But it’ s a secret.” The operation was a great success, and a new person appeared.
Later he married and became a lawyer. One day, he asked his father, “Who gave me the ears? Who gave me so much? I could never do enough for him or her.” “I do not believe you could,” said the father, “but the agreement was that you are not to know... not yet.”
The years kept their secret, but the day did come. He stood with his father over his mother’ s casket棺材. Slowly, tenderly, the father stretched forth a hand and raised the thick, reddish brown hair to show the mother had no outer ears.
“Mother said she was glad she never let her hair be cut,” his father whispered gently, “and nobody ever thought Mother less beautiful, did they?”
小題1:Why did Mother gasp when she saw her newborn baby?
A.Because her son had a tiny face.B.Because she saw her son crying.
C.Because her son was born imperfect.D.Because her son was in her arms.
小題2:Which word can describe Mother’ s feeling when the son threw himself into her arms?
A.Nervous.      B.Sympathetic.C.Proud.D.Angry.
小題3:We can infer that the person who donate the ears is_____.
A.A doctor.B.His father.C.His mother.D.A stranger.
小題4:From the passage we know the followings are True except________
A, the mother felt sorry for the son without ears   B. the doctor didn’t like the baby
C. the boy meant everything to the mother        D. the father kept the secret until mother died
小題5:The best title for the passage would be ________.
A.Mother’s hairB.An unforgettable memory
C.Who gave me the ears?D.Who is my best respectable person?
