A [2015 .洛阳高三二模] One winter, my cousin and I were playing toy blocks in the yard. My mum was out for shopping to get groceries and my dad was asleep upstairs in his room. Suddenly, it started to snow. First it was just a little. But then it started to pour heavily.

 Then, we put the finishing touches to our blocks and headed back inside. Right when I opened the sliding glass door, my cousin fell down on the slippery wooden stairs. I let go of the door, my worst mistake, you see. The door locks automatically ? but I had put a rock right next to the door so it wouldn't close. But while I was running to my cousin's aid, I'd accidentally kicked the rock.

Now, my cousin and I were locked outside. And unfor?tunately it started to get really windy. It was really freezing with the snow. First we started to call my dad, but he was sleeping soundly. I mean he was sleeping through a tornado soundly. It was of no use.

 Then I tried to climb over the fence but it didn't work be?cause the fence was iced up by snow and wind, and the fence was six feet high. So, I climbed up to my tree house and brainstormed some ideas on ways to get in. At one point, I was seriously considering jumping out of the tree house and use the trampoline(蹦床)to jump over the fence.

   So, we got to work. First, I took out the trampoline. Then I started to jump. First try―I almost cracked my head. Second try―this time I convinced my cousin to do it but at the last second, he chickened out. Third try―I jumped and missed but at the last second, my hand caught the fence, and with a lot of pushing I finally climbed over the fence and luck?ily, I fell on a big snowdrift.

  Finally, my mum came back. Then I got inside and un?locked the door for my cousin to get in. Then we shared this story with my mum and dad.

A  [2015'东北三校二联] The stories we share with one another are important. They show wisdom and provide inspiration. They are impor?tant to our development. But sometimes people choose not to tell.

Consider the negative effects of not sharing a story in the news: people are wondering if public health officials are hold?ing back too much information about the recent outbreak of Ebola.

There is a danger in holding back stories that ought to be told. Bobette Buster said it like this, "The fact is history has shown us that stories not told can become like dangerous ge-nies(妖怪,精灵)left in a bottle. When they are finally un?corked, their power to destroy is set free."

  There are a number of reasons why we hide parts of our stories: they often show our weaknesses or expose our disad?vantages; they require courage and strength to share; and of course, there are some stories that should be kept secret―es?pecially those that embarrass someone else.

Most of us have two selves : the one we display on the outside and the one we actually are on the inside. And the better we get at hiding the stories that show our true selves, the more damage we may be causing to ourselves and to others.

Honesty and openness is important : it proves we are trustworthy. It displays we are human. We are not perfect or better. It highlights the importance of hard work and person?al development. Hard work may not allow us to overcome our disadvantages completely. But with hard work, we do not have to be restricted to our mistakes.

Does this mean we admit every weakness, every disad?vantage, and every secret regret to everybody we meet? No, of course not. There is a time and a place and a certain level of relationship necessary for some stories to be told in an appropriate manner.

1.What's the function of the example in Paragraph 2?

 

A.     It reflects that people are concerning about the spread of Ebola.

B.     It shows the bad effect caused by sharing a story.

C.     It proves not sharing a story can cause trouble.

D.     It concludes that one should share a story at a proper time.

2.One of the reasons why people are unwilling to share ex?periences is that .

 

A.     sharing stories highlights the importance of hard work

B.     people are used to exposing their weaknesses

C.     people sometimes have no courage to share their sto?ries

D.   some stories make themselves feel uneasy

3.Which is close in meaning to the underlined word "uncork?ed" in Paragraph 3?

 

A.     Freed.

B.     Broken.

C.     Unfolded.

D.     Untouched.

4.The writer aims to convince us to .

 

A.     be open to people close to you by sharing some secrets

B.     share stories appropriately for the good of others and ourselves

C.     remove the dangers that can be caused by untold stories

D.     realize the importance of being honest when making friends
