Question

【题目】

Dear Sherry, I am very short. I want to be taller, I have tried jumping up and down and swimming, but none of these things have made me taller. My classmates laugh at me. I think my height is a serious problem. What should I do? Yours Mike

Dear Mike To be honest, you can only do your best to exercise, eat well, sleep well and hope for the best. After all, how tall you can grow mostly depends on your genes (基因). I've been short for pretty much my whole life and a lot of people have made fun of me for it. But the thing is, it doesn't really matter that much. I know it hurts when your classmates make fun of you, but this will happen less often as you grow up. There will always be some people who will judge(评判) you based on(基于) your height. But there isn't anything you can do to change their minds, And if someone thinks less of you because of your height. They’re probably not someone who is worth getting to know anyway. Love yourself for who you are— you're the only you there is. Yours, Sherry

本文是两封邮件往来。Mike遇到了问题，他觉得自己的身高是大问题，Sherry在回信中讲了自己的看法，并给出了建议。

【1】推理判断题。根据“I think my height is a serious problem. What should I do?”可知，本文主要是Mike讲述自己遇到的问题，并寻求建议和帮助。因此我们能在青少年问题的杂志上看到这两封信。故选A。

【2】细节理解题。根据第一封信中的“I think my height is a serious problem.”我认为我的身高是一个大问题，故选B。

【3】细节理解题。根据“After all, how tall you can grow mostly depends on your genes (基因).”毕竟，你能长多高，大部分取决于你的基因。故选A。

【4】词义猜测题。根据“And if someone thinks less of you because of your height.”如果有人因为你的身高而轻视你。可知，他们可能不值得你去认识。因此worth是“值得”的意思。故选A

【5】细节理解题。根据第二封信最后“Love yourself for who you are-— you're the only you there is.”爱你自己，因为你是唯一的你。故选C。
