阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中,选出最佳选项。

  The dirty, homeless man sat on the pavement, staring at the atones.He thought back more than twenty years to when he was a boy living in a small red brick house on this very street.He recalled the flower garden, the swing his dad made, and the bike he had saved up for months to buy.

  The man shrugged impatiently, for the brightness of those pictures hurt him, and his memory travelled on another ten years.He had a job by then, plenty of friends and started to come home less.He did not really want to remember those years, nor the day when, because o' debts, he had gone home planning to ask for money.He felt embarrassed, but he knew exactly where his dad kept the money.When his parents stepped out of the room, he took what he wanted and left.

  That was the last time he had seen them.Ashamed, he went abroad, and his parents knew nothing about the years of wandering or time in prison.But locked in his cell he often thought of home.Once free, he would love to see his parents again, if they were still alive, and still wanted to see him.

  When his prison time was up, he found-a job, but couldn't settle.Something was drawing him home.He did not want to arrive penniless, so he hitchhiked most of the long journey back.But less than a mile from his destination he started to feel sick with doubt.Could they ever accept this man who had so bitterly disappointed them?

  He spent most of that day sitting under a tree.That evening he posted a letter which, although short, had taken him hours to write.It ended with:

  I know it is unreasonable of me to suppose you want to see me...so it's up to you.I'll come early Thursday morning.If you want me home, hang a white handkerchief in the window of my old bedroom.If it's there, I'll come in; if not, I'll wave good-bye and go.

  And now it was Thursday morning and he was sitting on the pavement at the end of the street.Finally he got up and walked slowly toward the old house.He drew a long breath and looked.

  His parents were taking no risks.________________

  The man threw his head back, gave a cry of relief and ran straight through the open front door.

Terry was a middle-aged leather trader whose repeated failures in career made him a bad-tempered and disappointed man, often complaining that he had been cheated by others. One day he told his wife he was so disappointed with the city that he had to leave.
So his family moved to another city. It was the evening of a weekend. When Terry and his wife were busily engaged in tidying up their new home, the lights suddenly went out and they were forced to stop work. Terry regretted to have forgotten to bring along candles and had to wait helplessly in a bad mood. Just then he heard light,hesitand(犹豫的)knocks on his door that were clearly heard in the quiet night.
“Who’s it?”he wondered. Terry didn’t know anybody in the new city, and this was the moment he especially hated to be disturbed. He went to the door and opened it impatiently. At the door was a little girl, asking in a shy voice,“Sir, do you have candles? I’m your neighbor.”“NO,”answered Terry rudely. He shut the door.“What a nuisance!”he grumbled(嘟囔)over it with his wife.“No sooner had we settled down than the neighbor came to borrow things. What’ll be the next? How bothering!”
He was angry about it when the door was knocked at again. He opened it and found the same little girl outside. But this time she was holding two candles. She said, “My grandma told me the new neighbor downstairs might need candles. She sent me here to give you these.”Terry was struck by what he saw. When he became fully aware, he said,“Thank you and your grandma. God bless you!”
At that moment he suddenly realized what caused his failure in life. It was his coldness and harshness(刻薄)with other people. The person who had cheated him in life was actually nobody else but himself, for his eyes had been blurred(使模糊)by his cold mind.

Parents often believe that they have a good relationship(关系)with their teenagers. But last summer, Joanna and Henry noticed a change in their older son: suddenly he seemed to be talking more to his friends than to his parents. “The door to his room is always shut,” Joanna noted.
Tina and Mark noticed similar changed in their 14-year-old daughter. “She used to cuddle up (蜷伏) with me on the sofa and talk,” said Mark. “Now we joke that she does this only when she wants something. Sometimes she wants to be treated like a little girl and sometimes like a young lady.”
Before age 11, children like to tell their parents what’s on their minds. “In fact, parents are first on the list,” said Michael Riera, author of Uncommon Sense for Parents with Teenagers. “This completely changes during the teen years,” Riera explained. “They talk to their friends first, then maybe their teachers, and their parents last.”
Parents who know what’s going on in their teenagers’ lives are in the best position to help them. To break down the wall of silence, parents should create chances to understand what their children want to say, and try to find ways to talk and write to them. And they must give their children a mental break(休息), for children also need freedom, though young. Another thing parents should remember is that to be a friend, not a manager, with their children is a better way to know them.
【小题1】“The door to his room is always shut” suggests that the son ______.

A.is always busy with his studiesB.doesn’t want to be disturbed
C.keeps himself away from his parentsD.begins to dislike his parents
【小题2】 What troubles Tina and Mark most is that _____.
their daughter isn’t as lovely as before  
they can’t read their daughter’s mind exactly
they don’t know what to say to their daughter
their daughter talks with them only when she needs help
【小题3】 Which of the following best explains “the wall of silence” in the last paragraph?
A. Teenagers talk a lot with their friends
B. Teenagers do not want to understand their parents.
C. Teenagers do not talk much with their parents
D. Teenagers talk little about their own lives
【小题4】What can be learned from the passage?
A.  Parents are unhappy with their growing children.
Parents have suitable ways to talk with their teenagers
C.   Parents should be patient with their silent teenagers.
D.   Parents should try to understand their teenagers.

Sometime today — perhaps several times — Dick Winter will think about the 19-year-old who saved his life.

Because of this young man, Winter enjoys things like friendships, colours and laughter every day.

The young man saved Winter’s life by signing an organ donor card (器官捐献卡).

“I can’t say thank you enough,” Winter said yesterday at the news conference marking the tenth anniversary (周年纪念日) of the Multi Organ Transplant (移植) Program at Toronto General Hospital.

What Winter knows of the 19-year-old who saved his life is only that he died in a car accident and that his family was willing to honour his wishes and donate his organs for transplantation.

His liver (肝脏) went to Winter, who was dying from liver trouble. “Not a day goes by that I don’t think of what a painful thing it must have been for them,” Winter said yesterday.

“They are very, very special people.”

Winter, 63, is fitter now than he was 10 years ago, when he got the transplant. He has five medals from the 1995 World Transplant Games in swimming and hopes to collect some more next year in Japan.

“At one time, we were probably strange people in the eyes of other people. Now it’s expected you should be able to go back and do everything you did before, only better.”

The biggest change for Winter, however, isn’t that he has become a competitive athlete. The biggest change is how deeply he appreciates every little thing about his life now.

“ I have no time for arguments,” said Winter.

“You change everything. Material things don’t mean as much. Friendships mean a lot.”

Also at yesterday’s news conference was Dr. Gray Levy, Winter’s doctor.

Levy said he has bitter-sweet feelings when he looks at Winter and hears of his athletic exploits.

Levy knows that for every recipient (接受者) like Winter, there are several others who die even though they could be saved because there aren’t enough donated organs.

“For every Mr. Winter, we have five to ten people that will never be given the chance that Mr. Winter was given,” Levy said.

Levy said greater public awareness (意识,认识) and more resources are needed. He noted that in Spain and the United States, hospitals receive $10,000 per donor to cover the costs of the operating room, doctors, nurses and teams to work with the donors’ families.

1.Which of the following is true about the 19-year-old?

A. He died of liver trouble.                                 B. He got wounded in a battle.

C. He was willing to donate his organs.               D. He became a recipient of a prize.

2.What do we learn about Dick Winter?

A. He is becoming less competitive now.

B. He is always thinking about his early life.

C. He knows all about the young man and his family.

D. He values friendships more than material things.

3.Dr. Levy would agree that  __________.

A. Spanish hospitals have more favorable (有利的) conditions for organ transplant

B. the Canadian public have realized the importance of organ donation

C. Spanish hospitals received more money from the donors

D. Canadian hospitals now have enough donated organs

4.What’s the author’s purpose in writing this article?

A. The public should give more support to organ transplant.

B. Transplant patients are thankful for the help they receive.

C. Transplant can change a patient’s life greatly.

D. It is not easy to get organs for transplant.

    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.”
