When I first met Bud,I knew we were going to be friends,even though he was white and I was black. We first met at the All-City Chorus. 1 We stood side by side in the chorus,and he always made me look good,even if I missed a note.

   Bud went to an all-white high school in a beautiful,all-white neighborhood. There were very few big buildings in his coiiimunity. As a matter of fact,you would have to walk four or five blocks to get to the nearest shopping center. 2 In his basement,he had a complete mini-gym. In his bedroom,he had a nice desk,complete with reference books and his own little TV on which he could play his video games.

   3 My family lived in a nice apartment in an all-black housing project. Our project housed many families,so we were used to living in small crowded houses. 4 There were all kinds of stores nearby. For beauty,we had basketball courts and the rose garden in front of the project building.

   We were never jealous or looked down on one another,either. We both felt we had lost something because we lived in worlds set apart from others. Bud's only contact(接觸) with blacks of his age was in the All-City Chorus. 5 And it was not as interesting as it would have been if he had grown up with people of different groups and races living together. I felt the same way. Both races could learn a great deal from one another,and I knew this because Bud and I surely did learn from each other.

   A. Bud's house was another point of interest.

   B. Because of this,he felt his life was sheltered.

   C. We never had to walk far to the nearest store.

   D. My home and neighborhood were totally different.

   E. People said we both had the same kind of personality.

   F. I could sing a little,but Bud really had a very good voice.

   G. After practice,the two of us would always go to McDonald's.

(家庭、朋友與周圍的人)

本文是記敘文。一位黑人少年向我們講述了自己和一位白人同齡人之間的友誼。

1. F。由本空前后的the All-City Chorus 和 We stood side by side in the chorus可知，作者在此謝述他們 所參加的合唱團，故F項內(nèi)容符合 此處語境。

2. A. 由本空后的In his basement和 In his bedroom _信息可知，作者在介紹Bud所居住的房子。

3. D. 由第二、三段內(nèi)容可知，Bud所 在的社區(qū)和作者生活的社區(qū)大不 相同,D項是過渡句,在此起承上啟 下的作用。

4. C. 由本空后的 There were all kinds of stores nearby 可知，C 項內(nèi) 容符合此處語境。

5. B. 由本空前的 we lived in worlds set apart from others 可知，“正是由 于這樣的原因，Bud感到自己的生活被隔絕了”。

   I’ve wanted to be an astronaut for as long as I can remember. My parents have always been very supportive and I have very specific memories of my mom telling me that I could become whatever I wanted,if I worked hard enough. I guess I took that to heart!I was also influenced by science fiction — by movies like Star Wars and by books!

   As I grew older,I came to realize how difficult it would be to achieve this dream,but my passion for human spaceflight,the desire to explore,and the challenge of it all kept the dream alive.

   I truly feel like books and reading have been fundamental to my success. First of all,books are fiin to read. Space history and science fiction captured my imagination and challenged me to pursue my goals. More importantly,books are a conduit(導(dǎo)管） for knowledge. While I consistently read for enjoyment,I also had to read to learn.

   I like to compare reading to rocket fuel. You can't launch(發(fā)射） a rocket without fuel and it is difficult to be successful without strong reading skills.

   My love of science fiction played a huge role in my desire to be an astronaut. Some authors,like Kim Stanley Robinson,describe the fundamental difficulties with living and working in space. I think I am drawn to science fiction because it paints a picture of what the future may hold. Authors can thrill us with their speculation(猜想) of how we might live,work and travel in the future,and what challenges might lie ahead.

   Reading has been a huge part of my life,for both enjoyment and work. I want to share that joy and the success it can bring!

   My kids love to read. My daughter loves animals,so she likes some nonfiction,but she is a big fan of science fiction,too. My boys like to read about superheroes. Their love of reading is no accident — we love to read together as a family and we make regular trips to our local library.

            Reasons why people who learn music are more likely to be successful

   I myself became a drummer at around the age of 11 ,and have played ever since. 1 Nowadays,there is a mountain of evidence suggesting that music education is not only good for you,but very important if you want to be successful in life. So why are people who learn music more likely to be successful? Read on.

   They are more creative. Recent research has shown that many successful politicians,businessmen,and people in other fields were trained at a young age to be a musician of some kind. 2 What does matter is that these people credit their music education with making them more creative.

   They connect with others better. 3 Even when you are unfamiliar with a location,you can always use your ability to play music to get to know those around you,and establish connections that may have been impossible to create otherwise.

   They are better at math. I am not sure if this one applies to me,but it has long been known that there is some kind of connection between math and music. 4 If you can get a sense of music and musical language,mathematical concepts should begin to make more sense.

   5 As a drummer,I know how to keep time in a song and play to the beat. In life,I use those same skills to maintain some order in my schedule. Thus,learning how to maintain a steady pace not only makes for a good musician,but a more productive and effective worker as well.

   A. They have more self-control.

   B. They have a better sense of rhythm.

   C. Becoming successful requires that you be a good listener.

   D. Whether they were trained to play the piano or the violin,it doesn't matter.

   E. Music is often thought of as a useful way to connect different cultures and ideas.

   F. Both deal with analyzing puzzles and finding patterns in order to work out solutions.

   G. From my own experiences,I have believed learning how to play an instrument is beneficial.

    While shopping in a store yesterday,I was slightly annoying by somebody’s screaming children,who just would not quiet down. The little boy could be heard throughout the store. He looked for me as I passed his mother and I smiled as I looked back. He said “hi” in quiet and easy tone. I said “hi” back and gave him an even big smile. The boy didn’t smile back but I didn't hear it yelling the rest of the time when I was in the store. It is truly that if you smile at someone,you would brighten their day. In fact,it not only brightens their day,and makes your own light to shine as well.
