Bobby was sitting out in his back yard in the snow. The thin sneakers he wore had a few holes in them. Try as he might, he could not come up with an idea for his mother’s Christmas gift.

    Ever since his father had passed away three years ago, his mother worked nights at the hospital, but the small wage could only be stretched so far.

    What the family lacked in money and material things, they more than made up for in love and family unity. They ran the household in their mother’s absence. All three of his sisters had already made beautiful gifts for their mother.

    It was Christmas Eve already, and he had nothing. Bobby started to walk down to the street. He walked from shop to shop. Everything seemed so beautiful and so out of reach. It was starting to get dark, then suddenly his eyes caught a shiny dime. Never has anyone felt so wealthy as Bobby did at that moment.

    He went inside a flower shop. When the owner asked if he could help him, Bobby presented the dime and asked if he could buy one flower. The shop owner looked at Bobby, then said, “You just wait here and I’ll see what I can do for you.”

    The shop owner returned holding red roses all tied together with a big silver bow. Bobby’s heart sank as the owner placed them gently into a long white box. “That will be ten cents, young man,” said the shop owner, reaching out his hand for the dime. Slowly, Bobby moved his hand to give the man his dime.

    Then the shopkeeper’s wife appeared. “Where are the roses you were fixing?”

    The shop owner replied, “A strange thing happened to me this morning. I thought I heard a voice telling me to set aside a dozen of my best roses for a special gift. I wasn’t sure at the time whether I had lost my mind or what, but I set them aside anyway. When I saw that little boy tonight, I knew who that voice was.”

1.According to the first three paragraphs we know that _____.

    A. Bobby’s sisters didn’t help Bobby to buy a gift

    B. Bobby had known what gift he’d give to his mother

When I was a ten-year-old girl, I was once asked to deliver a speech titled “A Real Test in My Life”. To talk before the whole class! Just imagine how   31   (terrible) shy I was the moment I thought of that   32     so many eyes fixed upon me. I had no other choice, though. First I was to draft the speech and that was just a piece of cake for me, because I was a good writer-something to pride myself in. But the hard part   33   (lie) in my oral presentation; to read from   34   paper was not allowed; I had to give the speech   35   my memory and in front of such a big audience! A real trial began when I stood on the platform with my legs   trembling and my mind blank. How much time had passed by, I didn’t know. My listeners were still waiting, patiently and without any signs of rushing me. Gradually I found   36   back, giving out my speech with difficulty. Finally I finished. After   37   seemed to be a hundred years, I found my audience applauding. I made it! From then on, my fear of talking before an audience   38   (appear). Actually with my confidence building   39   , I now turn out to be a great speaker. Looking back, I know the greatest difficulty on our way to success is our fear. Overcome it,   40   we will be able to achieve our goals.

CHILDREN AND GAMES

         As we all know, games play a very important role in the growth of children. Children should grow along with playing games;   31           , through playing, they can not only acquire knowledge, but also cultivate their abilities to get along with others.

         However, most children are   32           ( face ) with a completely different situation. Most parents fear that games will prevent children from increasing new knowledge and   33            the children will fail in the future examinations. So, instead of   34           ( let ) the children   35            find and learn naturally from their surroundings, they force their children to take part in various kinds of classes, learning English, playing   36            piano or practising drawing, etc. What’s more, some parents put   37            the children’s toys which are very useful in developing children’s imagination and practical abilities.

           38          is a piece of good advice to those parents:   39           you want to expect your child to be able to accomplish something, you must first of all develop his ability to adapt to the new surroundings. That cram education can lead to nothing   40          a failure in the children’s growth.

 

 

BEIJING——China will further open its financial sector in “an active and safe” way, the country’s central bank vowed on Friday.

“China will gradually broaden the chance for the participation of foreign capital in the domestic financial market,” said the People’s Bank of China in a report.“We will strengthen the connections between China’s financial market and international ones by attracting more foreign capital in Renminbi-denominated financial products,” the report said.

On Christmas morning, I went to the Cockhedge Mall. People there were all busy buying their last minute requirements. I needed to buy a birthday card for my son-in-law whose birthday is the 29th of December. Picking up a few more things as well as my cared I went to join the line for the express checkout which was for people who only had a few items in a basket and not a trolley load. This line was next to the Customer Service desk.

Seemingly waiting quite a long time, I was jogged out of my thoughts by a voice behind me making comments on the things I bought.

It was so funny when I realized that she was describing the contents of my basket. The owner of the voice was a very pretty young lady. I said to her that I was going to buy a box of Christmas cookies but the only ones left were not to my liking. The lady told me that just opposite Cockhedge in Superdrug they had lots of cookies. I said, “I’m not going to bother now. I had enough of shops and I’m going home.”

The assistant from the Customer Service came across at this time saying “If there is anyone in the line with a few items in their basket, none of which needed to be weighed, I will check out their groceries at the desk.” Because I had the sprouts which needed to be weighted, the young lady accepted the offer and walked away waving goodbye.

Eventually my turn came at the checkout. I was walking away when I met my new friend once again who handed me a beautiful box of Christmas cookies. With a big hug she said “Hope you have a lovely Christmas.” She had been into Superdrug to buy me the cookies while I was still queuing in Cockhedge.

What a generosity to a stranger! I was so surprised you could have knocked me down with a feather. My Good Samaritan would never know what a joyful Christmas day I had with my family. Telling them this story, as we ate around the table, kept everyone spellbound.

1.The underlined word “spellbound” in the last paragraph probably means          .

    A.interested       B.disappointed     C.astonished       D.frightened

2.Which of the following could be the best title of the story?

    A.A Piece of Lucky Feather             B.A Surprise Christmas Gift

    C.The Boring Shopping Experience       D.The Unforgettable Big Hug

3.How does the writer feel about the pretty young lady?

    A.Worried          B.Satisfied        C.Grateful         D.Proud

4.What can we learn from the story?

    A.Nobody is sure what will happen the next moment.

    B.A simple action can bring other people happiness.

    C.Being patient will decrease the waiting time.

    D.Life without hope and faith is a full thing.
