It was Thanksgiving morning. I was busy preparing the traditional Thanksgiving turkey when the doorbell rang. I opened the front door and saw two small children in rags huddling together on the top step.

“Any old papers, lady？” asked one of them.

I was busy. I wanted to say “no” until I looked down at their feet. They were wearing thin little sandals(凉鞋), wet with heavy snow.

“Come in and I'll make you a cup of hot cocoa.”

They walked over and sat down at the table. Their wet sandals left marks upon the floor. I served them cocoa and bread to fight against the cold outside. Then I went back to the kitchen and started cooking.

The silence in the front room struck me. I looked in. The girl held the empty cup in her hands, looking at it. The boy asked in a flat voice, “Lady, are you rich？”

“Am I rich? Pity, no！”

I looked at my worn?out slipcovers(椅套). The girl put her cup back in its saucer(茶碟)carefully and said, “Your cups match your saucers.” They left after that, holding their papers against the wind. They had reminded me that I had so much for which to be grateful.

Plain blue china cups and saucers were only worth five pence. But they matched.

I tasted the potatoes and stirred(搅动)the meat soup. Potatoes and brown meat soup, a roof over our heads, my man with a regular job, these matched, too.

I moved the chairs back from the fire and cleaned the living room. The muddy marks of little sandals were still wet upon my floor. Let them be for a while, I thought, just in case I should begin to forget how rich I am.

1.Which of the following would be the best title for the text?

A．Lady, are you rich?

B．A story of Thanksgiving Day

A．The girl thought the writer was rich just because she wanted to make the writer happy.

B．The writer had thought she wasn't rich because her supplies were not expensive.

C．If cups and saucers match well, they are a best pair even though cheap.

D．After hearing what they said, the writer seemed to understand what a rich life was.

3.The writer left the muddy marks of little sandals on the floor for a while to________.

A．show that she was a kind?hearted lady

B．remind her that she shouldn't forget how rich she was

C．leave room for readers to think about what being rich is

A new study has found evidence of aggressive behavior in children who drink four or more servings of soft drinks every day．

The mothers of 3,000 five-year-olds took part in the study．They were asked to keep a record of how many servings of soft drinks their children drank over a two-month period and keep records of how they behaved．The researchers found that 43 percent of the boys and girls drank at least one daily serving of soda．Four percent of the youngsters had four or more sodas to drink every day．

Children who drank the most soda were more than two times likely to show signs of aggression．“For the children who consumed four or more soft drinks per day，we see an association between aggressive behaviors，attention problems and withdrawn behaviors．”Shakira Suglia says．The aggressive behaviors included destroying possessions belonging to others，taking part in fights and physically attacking people．

Shakira says the researchers identified the link after they considered the factors like the child’s age and sex．They also considered ____________，such as whether the boys and girls were eating sweets or given fruit drinks on a normal day．In addition，the researchers examined parenting styles and other social conditions that might be taking place in the home．

It is not quite clear why young children who drink a lot of soda have behavior problems．However,a substance often found in soft drinks is caffeine，which helps to make people feel energetic．Doctor Suglia suggests that caffeine could be causing the children to be more aggressive．

The research is part of a larger study called the Fragile Families and Child Well-being Study．It follows 5．000 poor mothers and their children in 20 American cities．

1.What is the main idea of the text?(no more than l 2 words)

2.What does the underlined word“they”in Paragraph 2 probably refer to?(no more than 5 words)

My Colorful School Life

I’m a student from

__________________________________________________________________________

I enjoy my colorful school life.

At thirteen, I was diagnosed（诊断） with a kind of attention disorder. It made school difficult for me. When everyone else in the class was focusing on tasks, I could not.

In my first literature class, Mrs. Smith asked us to read a story and then write on it, all within 45 minutes. I raised my hand right away and said, “Mrs. Smith, you see, the doctor said I have attention problems. I might not be able to do it.”

She glanced down at me through her glasses, “you are no different from your classmates, young man.”

I tried, but I didn’t finish the reading when the bell rang. I had to take it home.

In the quietness of my bedroom, the story suddenly all became clear to me. It was about a blind person, Louis Braille. He lived in a time when the blind couldn’t get much education. But Louis didn’t give up. Instead, he invented a reading system of raised dots（点）, which opened up a whole new world of knowledge to the blind.

Wasn’t I the “blind” in my class, being made to learn like the “sighted” students? My thoughts spilled out and my pen started to dance. I completed the task within 40 minutes. Indeed, I was no different from others; I just needed a quieter place. If Louis could find his way out of his problems, why should I ever give up?

I didn’t expect anything when I handed in my paper to Mrs. Smith, so it was quite a surprise when it came back to me the next day--- with an “A” on it. At the bottom of the paper were these words: “ See what you can do when you keep trying?”

1.The author didn’t finish the reading in class because .

A. He was new to the class

B. He was tried of literature

C. He had an attention disorder

D. He wanted to take the task home

2.What do we know about Louis Braille from the passage?

A. He had good sight B. He made a great invention.

C. He gave up reading D. He learned a lot from school

3.What was Mrs. Smith ‘s attitude to the author at the end of the story?

A. Angry B. Impatient C. Sympathetic D. Encouraging

4.What is the main idea of the passage?

A. The disabled should be treated with respect.

B. A teacher can open up a new world to students.

C. One can find his way out of difficulties with efforts.

D. Everyone needs a hand when faced with challenges.

Some Ways to Deal With Hardship and Pain in Life

Regardless of the difficulties you way face, it’s getting back up and moving forward that counts the most when you need to deal with hardship. 1.

Write or talk about how you feel

Keeping my feelings to myself used to make me feel lonely, but when I found someone who actually cared about me, it became natural to share how I felt with him and that contributed to my ability to overcome troublesome situations.2. Although talking to strangers about your issues may seem crazy, it actually isn’t.

It is said that running away from your problems will never help，and though that’s partially true，it doesn’t mean that you need to make yourself go so deeply into a situation that you run out of air to breathe and lose the ability to weigh the pros and cons of your choices．That happens more than we like to admit，which is why it’s important to separate yourself from a situation long enough to think clearly without having people hanging over your shoulders．

Remind yourself that you’re not alone

Regardless of who or what you depend on，you need to remind yourself that you are not alone; you have people who do care．4. Sometimes it’s strangers who may share the same feelings as you do．Think about it—you may not know any of these readers personally but they could be in the exact same situation as you，so in fact，no one is truly alone．

Accept the results and get back up again

5. Whether the results of your choices proved to be helpful or not, it’s time for you to accept them and get back up．This time you have a new experience to add to your book of life so the next time something tries to knock you down，it won’t be easy because you will be strong and determined to push forward．Life will go on，time will never stand still，and it rests upon you to make the right decision of moving forward．

A．Separate yourself from the situation．

B．Tell yourself to accept the hardship.

C．Finally，it’s time to accept what has happened．

D．All in all，remember that life is short．

E．Not only did I speak to him about how I felt，but I decided to blog about it．

F．Here are some things I've tried just to help me believe in a brighter future and get over a tough situation．

G．Even if it’s just one person，that’s enough to give you reason to remind yourself that you will never truly be alone．
