Push!

At midnight Peter was awakened by heavy knocks on the door. He rolled over and looked at his  1, and it was half past one. "I'm not getting  2  at this time," he  3, and rolled over.

Then, a  4  knock followed. "Aren't you going to  5  that?" said his wife.

    So he dragged himself out of bed and went downstairs. He opened the door and there was a man  6  at the door. It didn't take Peter long to  7  the man was drunk.

"Hi, there," slurred (嘟囔) the stranger, "Can you give me a push?"

"No, get lost. It's half past one. I was  8," Peter said and slammed the door. He went back  9  to bed and told his wife what had happened.

She said, "That wasn't very  10  of you. Remember that night we had a  11  in the pouring rain on the way to pick the kids up and you had to  12  that man's house to get our car13  again? What would have happened if he'd told  14  to get lost?"

"But the guy was  15," said Peter.

"It doesn't matter," said the wife. "He needs help  16  it would be the Christian thing to help him."

So Peter went out of bed again, got dressed, and went downstairs. He opened the door, and not being able to see the stranger anywhere he shouted, "Hey, do you still want a  17 ?"

And he heard a  18  cry out "Yeah, please."

It doesn’t matter if you have one friend or 20, because there are only a few people in this world that can make you truly happy. For me, my family and my three best girlfriends mean everything to me.
Some days I didn’t want to go to school because I felt so disappointed in myself but I don’t regret a thing. It makes you stronger as a person, and if you are able to mend your friendships as I have done, then you can do anything.
My mother always told me, “Stephanie, remember that a friend is a gift that you give yourself. A friend will make you laugh and be there for the good or bad. A true friend will never make fun of you. If a friend is a piece of work, then he or she has never been a friend at all. A friend is the biggest gift to yourself.”
Everyone is going to make mistakes but please don’t push them away, especially if it’s someone you really care about. I know when I make a mistake I beat myself up about it. I just wish someone would reach out a hand to help me back  on my feet as my best friends did. If someone is new or doesn’t have a friend, please reach out and behind him/her because that small action could mean the world to him/her. Now that I’m older, I understand what my mom has been trying to tell me, and now I know that the friends that I choose will also be the kinds of friends that I would want to be surrounded by forever.
【小題1】According to the passage, a true friend should be a person that _________.

A.often gives you gifts
B.makes you happy
C.does both good or bad things to you
D.seldom makes fun of you
【小題2】It can be inferred from the passage that the writer _________.
A.understands what a friend means to her
B.doesn’t think that friends will make her truly happy
C.doesn’t have many friends
D.has nothing except her family and three friends
【小題3】If you hope to have a friend, you should do the following EXCEPT_________.
A.giving advice and offering help if he or she makes mistakes
B.regarding him or her as a piece of work
C.considering him or her a valuable gift
D.trying to treat a newcomer as a friend
【小題4】The last sentence probably means_________.
A.people around me are all my friends
B.I only choose the people around me to be my friends
C.the friends I choose will surround me every day
D.my true friends would always be by my side for my joys and sorrows

Writing articles about films for The Front Page was my first proper job.Before then I had done bits of reviewing --- novels for other newspapers, films for a magazine and anything I was asked to do for the radio.That was how I met Tom Seaton, the first arts editor of The Front Page, who had also written for television.He hired me, but Tom was not primarily a journalist, or he would certainly have been more careful in choosing his staff.

    At first, his idea was that a team of critics should take care of the art forms that didn’t require specialized knowledge: books, TV, theatre, film and radio.There would be a weekly lunch at which we would make our choices from the artistic material that Tom had decided we should cover, though there would also be guests to make the atmosphere sociable.

   Tom’s original plan for a team of critics for the arts never took off.It was a good idea, but we didn’t get together as planned and so everything was done by phone.It turned out, too, that the general public out there preferred to associate a reviewer with a single subject area, and so I chose film.Without Tom’s initial push, though, we would hardly have come up with the present arrangement, by which I write an extended weekly piece, usually on one film.

    The space I am given allows me to broaden my argument --- or forces me, in an uninteresting week, to make something out of nothing.But what is my role in the public arena(舞臺(tái))? I suppose that people choose what films to go to on the basis of the stars, the publicity of the director.So if a film review isn’t really a consumer guide, what is it? I certainly don’t feel I have a responsibility to be ‘right’ about a movie.Nor do I think there should be a certain number of ‘great’ and ‘bad’ films each year.All I have to do is put forward an argument.I’m not a judge, and nor would I want to be.

1.What do we learn about Tom Seaton from the first paragraph?

       A.He encouraged Mark to become a writer.

       B.He had worked in various areas of the media.

       C.He met Mark when working for a film company.

       D.He prefers to employ people that he knows.

2.The weekly lunches were planned in order to ______.

       A.help the writers get to know each other

       B.provide an informal information party

       C.divide the work that had to be done

       D.entertain important visitors from the arts

3.What does the author mean when he says that Tom’s plan ‘never took off’ in Paragraph 3?

       A.It was unpopular.               B.It wasted too much time.

       C.It wasn’t planned properly.     D.It wasn’t put into practice.

4.Which of the following best describes what Mark says about his work?

       A.His success varies from year to year.   B.He prefers to write about films he likes.

       C.He can freely express his opinion.     D.He writes according to accepted rules.
