“笑一笑，十年少”，大多數(shù)人都知道這句俗語(yǔ)，但在粲然一笑的背后，蘊(yùn)涵著多少科學(xué)原理？閱讀下文你就知道。

I start to wonder what else had changed since I’d been gone. My parents are in an awkward puzzle, wondering how to treat me now----whether to treat me—still their daughter—as one of them, an adult, or as the child they feel they sent away months earlier.

I run into two of my best friends from high school; we stare at each other, expressionless. We ask the simple questions and give simple answers. It’s as if we have nothing to say to each other. I wonder how things have changed so much in such a small amount of time. We used to laugh and promise that no matter how far away we were, our love for each other would never change. Their interests don’t interest me anymore, and I find myself unable to relate my life to theirs.

I had been so excited to come home, but now I just look at it all and wonder: Is it me? Why hadn’t the world stood still here while I was gone?  My room isn’t the same, my friends and I don’t share the same promise, and my parents don’t know how to treat me—or who I am, for that matter.

I get back to school feeling half-satisfied, but not disappointed. I sit up in my bed in my dorm room, surrounded by my pictures, dolls. As I wonder what has happened, I realize that I can’t expect the world to stand still and move forward at the same time.  I can change and expect that things at home will stay the same. I have to find comfort in what has changed and what is new; keep the memories, but live in the present.

A few weeks later, I’m packing again, this time for winter break. My mom meets me at the door. I have come home accepting the changes, not only in my surroundings, but most of all in me.

What can we infer about the writer?

       A. She is a high school student.    B. She is a college student.

       C. She is a clerk in a school.       D. She is a traveler.

What surprises the writer most?

       A. The living conditions of her parents.       B. The decorations in her room.

       C. The meeting with her best friends.   D. The things still staying the same.

What is this passage mainly about?

       A. The writer’s curiosity about the changes.

       B. The changes in the writer’s surroundings and in herself.

       C. The writer’s disappointment about the changes.

       D. The writer’s refusal to accept the changes.

For several days I saw little of Mr. Rochester. In the morning he seemed much occupied with business, and in the afternoon gentlemen from the neighborhood called and sometimes stayed to dine with him. When his foot was well enough, he rode out a great deal.
During this time, all my knowledge of him was limited to occasional meetings about the house, when he would sometimes pass me coldly, and sometimes bow and smile. His changes of manner did not offend me, because I saw that I had nothing to do with the cause of them.
One evening, several days later, I was invited to talk to Mr. Rochester after dinner. As I was looking at him, he suddenly turned, and asked me, “Do you think I’m handsome, Miss Eyre?”
The answer somehow slipped from my tongue before I realized it: “No, sir.”
“Ah, you really are unusual! You are a quiet, serious little person, but you can be almost rude.”
“Sir, I’m sorry. I should have said that beauty doesn’t matter, or something like that.”
“No, you shouldn’t! I see, you criticize my appearance, and then you stab（刺）me in the back! You have honesty and feeling. There are not many girls like you. But perhaps I go too fast. Perhaps you have awful faults to counterbalance your few good points.”
I thought to myself that he might have too. He seemed to read my mind, and said quickly, “Yes, you’re right. I have plenty of faults. I went the wrong way when I was twenty-one, and have never found the right path again. I might have been very different. I might have been as good as you, and perhaps wiser. I am not a bad man, take my word for it, but I have done wrong. It wasn’t my character, but circumstances that were at fault. Why do I tell you all this? Because you’re the sort of person people tell their problems and secrets to, because you’re sympathetic and give them hope.”
“Don’t be afraid of me, Miss Eyre.” He continued. “You don’t relax or laugh very much, perhaps because of the effect Lowood school has had on you. But in time you will be more natural with me, and laugh, and speak freely. You’re like a bird in cage. When you get out of the cage, you’ll fly very high. Good night.”
【小題1】Which of the following cannot describe Miss Eyre’s first impression of Mr. Rochester?

A．Friendly.B．Sociable.C．Busy.D．Changeable
【小題2】Why did Mr. Rochester say “…and then you stab me in the back!”?
A．Because Jane had intended to kill him with a knife.
B．Because Jane had intended to be more critical.
C．Because Jane had regretted having a talk with him.
D．Because Jane had said something else to correct herself.
【小題3】 From what Mr. Rochester said to Miss Eyre, we conclude that he wanted to __________.
A．tell her all his troublesB．tell her his life experience
C．change her opinion of himD．change his circumstances
【小題4】At the end of the passage, Mr. Rochester sounded __________.
A．rude B．coldC．depressingD．encouraging

Childhood was an illusion (錯(cuò)覺(jué)) and the illusion was this: everything was bigger. No, I mean everything, not just houses and shops and grown-ups, but colors and flowers and journeys, especially journeys which seemed endless. “Are we there yet, Daddy?”

Funfairs (游樂(lè)場(chǎng)) were huge things that spread for miles around you with noise and lights and exciting danger. Rainy days at home when you were ill seemed to last for ever. Being a grown-up yourself was an unthinkable distant possibility. Every sound was louder, every game was grander, every pain unbearable.

As I’ve grown old, life has become smaller. Tastes have dulled. Surprises have turned into shocks. Days go by unnoticed. How can I regain childhood when it was an illusion?

I have only one repeatable and wonderful way and even in this way I can regain only part of that larger world. I can play upon the stage like a child and make the crowd laugh and laugh with them, sometimes helplessly like a child, and then, even though I’m a sixty-one-year-old man, I can almost catch the colors and sounds and stillness of those bigger years when I was little.

1.How does the author feel about his childhood?

A. It was endless.          B. It was unpleasant.

C. He is glad that it is over.  D. He misses it as a grown-up

2.The author thinks that everything was bigger in childhood because             .

A. children could not make proper judgments.

B. children were curious and eager about life

C. things appeared really big in children’s eyes

D. to grow up seemed so long for children

3.The world seems to have become smaller to the author because           .

A. life is disappointing              B. time goes by too fast

C. he has had too many surprises        D. foods no longer taste delicious

4.The author enjoys playing on the stage so as to           .

A. act like a child                         B. live an unusual life

C. make the crowd laugh                 D. regain his childhood
