I didnt want to make a success in the magazine business. “ If you think you can change your mind like this,” she replied,
28、“ youll become a good-for-nothing.” She insisted that, as soon as school was over, I should start ringing doorbells, selling magazines. Whenever I said no, she would scold me.

33、1】 A Some years ago, on a hot summer day in south Florida, a little boy decided to go for a swim in the old swimming hole behind his house. He flew into the water, not realizing that as he swam toward the middle of the lake, an alligator (美洲鳄 ) was swimming toward the shore. His father working in th
34、e yard saw the two as they got closer and closer together. In utter fear, he ran toward the water, yelling to his son as loudly as he could. Hearing his voice, the little boy became alarmed and made a U turn to swim to his father. It was too late. Just as he reached his father, the alligator reached
35、 him. From the dock, the father grabbed his little boy by the arms just as the alligator snatched his legs. That began an incredible tug of war (拔河 ) between the two. The alligator was much stronger than the father, but the father was much too passionate to let go. A farmer happened to drive by, too
36、k aim and shot the alligator. Remarkably, the little boy survived. His legs were extremely scarred by the vicious attack of the animal. And, on his arms, were deep scratches where his fathers fingernails dug into his fresh in his effort to hang on to the son he loved. The newspaper reporter who inte
37、rviewed the boy asked if he would show his scars. The boy lifted his pant legs. And then, he said to the reporter, “But look at my arms. I have great scars on my arms, too. I have them because my dad wouldnt let go.” You and I can identify with that boy. We have scars, too. No, not from an alligator
38、, but the scars of a painful past. Some of those scars are unsightly and have caused us deep regret. But, some wounds, my friend, are because someone has refused to let go. In the midst of your struggle, someone has been there holding on to you. If you have the scars of someones love on your arms, b
39、e very, very grateful. Someone in your life did not and will not ever let you go. Never judge another persons scars, because you dont know how they got them. 【小题 1】 Which of the following is the most closely related to the underlined word “passionate” A determined B anxious C frightened D courageous
40、 【小题 2】 When the boy told the newspaper reporter about the scars on his arms, he felt . A painful and fearful B regretful and panic C proud and grateful D excited and thankful 【小题 3】 In the story the writer intends to tell us that . A scars always remind people of their past experiences B wounds in
41、the mind are more painful than those in the body C a painful past always leaves scars on a persons mind D scars do not necessarily mean pain at all times 【小题 4】 Which of the following viewpoints will the writer most probably agree with A Be grateful to a painful past, for you can always learn someth
42、ing from it. B Other peoples criticism or blame may hurt you, but if it is for your own good, you should take it thankfully. C The swimming hole of life is filled with danger, but you dont need to be too serious about it as someone will never let you go. D If someone hurts you, be grateful to them,
43、for they mean no harm 答案：【小题 1】 A【小题 1】 C【小题 1】 D【小题 1】 B Our plan was to drive into Cambridge, catch the 7:34 train to Liverpool Street Station, then to separate and meet again for lunch. We should have arrived at Liverpool at 9:19, but due to a typical London fog, the train had to move along so sl
44、owly that it was not until 10:30 that it got there. In spite of our late arrival, Joan, my wifes sister, decided that she would go to see the Crown Jewels in the Tower of London while we went shopping. It was only after her sister had disappeared into the fog that my wife realized that we hadnt deci
45、ded where we should meet for lunch. Since I had our three tickets for the concert in my pocket, this was indeed a problem. There seemed to be nothing we could do except taking a taxi to the Tower of London, and try to find her there. Needless to say, we didnt find her. It was now one oclock, and the
46、 concert began at 2:30. “Perhaps she will think of waiting outside the concert hall,” suggested my wife hopefully. By this time the fog was so thick that road traffic had to stop, and the only way to get there was by underground railway. Hand in hand we felt our way along the road to where we though
47、t the nearest station should be. An hour later we were still trying to find it. Just as I was about to lose my temper completely when we met a blind man tapping his way confidently through the fog. With his help we found Tower Hill tube station just fifty yards down the road. By now it was far too l
48、ate even to try to get to the concert hall before the performance began at 2:30, so we decided to return to Cambridge. It took seven long hours instead of the usual two to make that journey. Nor were we able to get any food and drink on the train. Tired and hungry we finally reached home at ten, opening the door to the sound of the telephone bell. It was Joan; she had seen the Crown Jewels, had managed to get another ticket for concert, and had had a wonderful dinner at a restaurant near the hotel where she decided t
