题目内容
As a teenager, I felt I was always letting people down. I was rebellious( 叛逆的) outside, but I wanted to be liked inside.
Once I left home to hitch-hike to California with my friend Penelope. The trip wasn't easy, and there were many times I didn't feel safe. One situation in particular kept me grateful to still be alive. When I returned home, I was different, not so outwardly sure of myself.
I was happy to be home. But then I noticed that Penelope, who was staying with us, was wearing my clothes. And my family seemed to like her better than me. I wondered if I would be missed if I were not there. I told my mom, and she explained that though Penelope was a lovely girl, no one could replace me. I pointed out, " She is more patient and neater than I have ever been." My mom said these were wonderful qualities, but I was the only person who could fill my role. She made me realize that even with my faults--- and there were many--- I was a loved member of the family who couldn't be replaced.
I became a searcher, wanting to find out who I was and what made me unique. My view of myself was changing. I started to resist pressure to act in ways that I didn't like any more, and I was delighted by who I really was. I came to feel much surer that no one can ever take my place.
Each of us holds a unique place in the world. You are special, no matter what others say or what you may think. So forget about being replaced. You can't be.
59. Which word can describe the writer's trip to California with Penelope?
A. Wonderful. B. Easy. C. Dangerous. D. Exciting.
60. What's the Chinese meaning of the underlined word "replace" in the third paragraph?
A. 位置 B. 放置 C. 重新设置 D. 取代

A. I wanted to find out who I was and what made me unique.
B. I wanted to study hard.

62. What is the writer trying to tell us?
A. As a teenager, you can go for a trip with your friend.
B. Parents like a girl better if she is more patient and neater.
C. Each of us is unique in the world and can't be replaced.
