In the car, I secretly had a look at him through the rearview mirror (后視鏡). He looked sad. “What’s the matter, honey?”“I’m nervous. I don’t know if I’ll be able to learn everything in the first grade. What if I can’t pay attention in class?”
My heart melted. I remembered being nervous on the first day of school and I thought I was the only student who felt that way. I was a nervous kid full of self-doubt. Seth behaved much better than I did.
We walked into his school together. He remembered where his new classroom was and recognized his teacher from the ice cream social party they had the day before. He sat down at his desk and chatted with a few of his classmates. He took a few photos of them (with a camera phone because I didn’t allow him to bring the real camera) and then he said in a very serious manner, “Mom, you can go home now. I’ll be OK.” And so he was.
小題1:Seth asked his mother to take him to school probably because _______.
A．he was afraid to be late for class
B．he wanted to share his joy with his mother
C．he felt worried about his school life
D．he was frightened of his new teacher
小題2:What did the writer mean by saying “My heart melted” in Paragraph 4?
A．She was very angry with her son.
B．She felt sad because of her son’s words.
C．She was too weak in the mind to face it.
D．She became more understanding of her son.
小題3:From the last paragraph we learn that ________.
A．Seth had never seen his new classroom
B．the ice cream social party was to be held soon
C．Seth got along well with his classmates
D．Seth took some photos using a real camera
小題4:It can be inferred that in the end Seth felt ______.

Ellen and Bill County are both teachers. They met in college and became good friends because of their shared love for children. Two years after the couple got married, Ellen saw a huge change in the life of one of her students, a 9-year-old girl. Three years ago both of the little girl’s parents had died and there was no one to take care of her. She was taken away to live in a government office. But finally she was taken in and adopted by a family and became their daughter. Ellen said that she noticed the difference in the child’s life after she was placed in a permanent home and thought that maybe she and her husband could help a child in a similar way.
They decided to become temporary parents and to take a child into their home on the weekends when the real parents could not take care of him or her. The pair planned to have their own children in a few years, but decided that this would be a way to give to the community in the meantime.
The couple quickly grew to love one of the children they looked after. When he became legally available, Billy became the first child they took in permanently. Six months after adopting Billy, Ellen was told by her doctor that she was unable to have children naturally. Ellen says she knew then that adoption was the way she was meant to have a family.
Since adopting Billy, now 17, Ellen and Bill have adopted five more children --- Rose,16； Albert, 11; Joshua, 5 and in June 2003, they added biological brother and sister Tyler and Rylee to the County family.
The County family has been recognized for their work on adoption, and have received many awards for their efforts. Last June, the family was even interviewed on the television show, “Adoption Stories”.
Ellen says she would like to encourage other families to adopt children. She adds that the best part of being a mother of six is: “Giving Josh a bath, putting a band-aid on a cut knee or just the everyday mom things, that makes motherhood such an honor and a privilege.”
小題1:What is the passage mainly about?
A．How a couple first met at collegeB．Where you can adopt a child
C．The benefits of adoption to the communityD．How adoption created a happy family
小題2:Why did Ellen and Bill first decide to adopt a childe?
A．Because they had always loved children very much
B．Because they saw the benefits of adoption for a child
C．Because they were not able to have children of their own
D．Because they wanted to receive awards for their community work
小題3:Which of the children are related to each other by blood?
A．Rylee and TylerB．Billy and Tyler
C．Albert and JoshuaD．Rose and Albert
小題4:What can be inferred from this passage?
A．Ellen had thought of adopting a child before getting married.
B．Only kids under 16 can be adopted by a family
C．A loving family is important to a child’s happiness
D．Adopting a child always makes the family become famous
