     As a young man, Alan was a skilled artist and known for his paintings. He had a wife and two sons. But one night, his older son died of a sudden illness. To make matters worse, his wife left him a short time later, leaving him alone with his 6- year- old son. The pain was more than Alan could stand, and he turned to alcohol (酒). Finally, Alan became an alcoholic(酒鬼).

     Day by day, Alan began to lose everything he had— his home, his job, his art, everything. In the end, Alan died alone in a hotel.

     When I heard of Alan's death,I thought," What a complete failure!"

     As time went by, Alan's son Ernie grew up. He is one of the kindest and most caring men I have ever known. I watched Ernie with his children and saw the free flow of love between them. I knew that kindness and care had to come from somewhere.

    I hadn't heard Ernie talk much about his father. It is so hard to excuse an alcoholic. One   day I asked him,"I'm really puzzled by something,"I said."I know your father was basically the only one to raise you. What on earth did he do to make you become such a good person?"

     Ernie sat quietly for a while. Then he said," From my earliest memories as a child until I left home at 18, Alan came into my room every night, gave me a kiss and said,‘I love you, son.'"

     Tears came to my eyes as I realized what a fool I had been to judge Alan as a failure. He had not left any material possessions(物质财富) behind. But he had been a kind and loving father, and he left behind one of the finest men I have ever known.

    (1)What do we know about Alan?
    A . His wife died of illness. B . Alan became an alcoholic because he loved alcohol. C . Alan was good at painting.

    (2)What did the writer think of Alan when he heard of Alan's death?
    A . He felt completely sad. B . He thought Alan was a failure. C . He was shocked by the news.
    【答案】
    (3)What's the meaning of the underlined word" puzzled"?
    A . 震惊的 B . 感动的 C . 困惑的
    【答案】
    (4)What does the story try to tell us?
    A . A failed father can have a successful son. B . A loving father will give his child the gift of kindness. _____ C . It is important to leave something useful behind after death.

       Phil White has just returned from an 18,000-mile, around-the-world bicycle trip. White had two reasons for making thisepic journey. First of all, he wanted to use the trip to raise money for charity, which he did. He raised £70,000 for the British charity, Oxfam. White's second reason for making the trip was to break the world record and become the fastest person to cycle around the world. He is still waiting to find out whether he has broken the record or not.

       White set off from Trafalgar Square, in London, on 19th June, 2004 and was back 299 days later. He spent more than 1,300 hours in the saddle (车座) and destroyed four sets of tyres and three bike chains. He had the adventure of his life crossing Europe first, and then the Middle East, Asia, Australia, New Zealand, and finally the Americas. Amazingly, he did all of this with absolutely no support team. No jeep carrying food, water and medicine. No doctor. Nothing! Just a bike and a very, very long road.

       The journey was lonely and desperate at times. He also had to fight his way across deserts, through jungles and over mountains. He cycled through heavy rains and temperatures of up to 45 degrees, all to help people in need. There were other dangers along the road. In Iran, he was chased by armed robbers and was lucky to get away with the little money he had. The worst thing that had happened to him was having to cycle into a headwind on a road that crosses the south of Australia. For 1,000 kilometers he battled against the wind that was constantly pushing him. This part of the trip was slow, hard and depressing, but he made it in the end. Now Mr. White is back and wants to write a book about his adventures.

    Johnny, a lizard (蜥蜴), lived between some rocks in the country, where he liked sunbathing every morning. One day, he felt so 1 that he didn't notice some boys coming up behind him. The boys caught Johnny, and he could only escape from their hands by losing his 2 and running to hide.

    The children watched his tail moving about, but they soon threw the tail away and left. Johnny came out to 3 his tail, but could find no 4 of it. Feeling so sad, he decided to 5 doing everything else in his life and spending all his time finding his tail. Days and months passed, and Johnny kept looking, asking everyone 6 they had seen his tail. However, there was 7 no news about it.

    One day, he asked a boy and the boy 8 replied, "Why do you need two tails?" After hearing this, Johnny turned back and saw that he had grown a new, stronger tail. He suddenly realised how 9 it had been to waste so much time on a problem like it. Johnny headed for home.

    10 , he suddenly found his old tail on the roadside. Although it 11 terrible, Johnny was still excited to have it back. He picked it up and was about to 12 his journey. Just at that moment, an idea hit him that he shouldn't look at the past and worry about it since it was not useful for 13 .

    He then decided to 14 his old tail there leaving with it all his past worries. As he continued his journey, all he took with him were thoughts of the present and the dreams of the 15 .

    As we know, it's not good to look at the past, unless it helps in the future. Let the past go with the wind.

     阅读下列短文,从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个最佳选项。

     On December 17, 1903, Wilbur and Orville Wright made the first successful powered flight in history, making their dream come true.

     It all started when Orville was 7 and Wilbur was 11. Their father gave them a toy helicopter(直升机), which made them dream of flying. Their mother, who knew much about machines and science, also influenced them a lot.

     When the brothers grew up, they entered the printing business. Then they opened a bicycle repair shop. It wasn't long before they were making their own bikes. However, the brothers never stopped to study flight. They studied what other people learned about flight. By 1900, the Wright brothers were ready to test their first Flyer. They tried many times. Finally, on December 17, 1903, they achieved success.

     That day, the brothers flew four times. Orville flew the Flyer the first time. That flight lasted 12 seconds and went 120 feet. Their second flight went 175 feet and the third 200 feet. Wilbur flew the fourth flight. It reached 852 feet in 59 seconds. After that last flight, the Flyer became too broken to fly again because of the strong wind.

    They kept testing new designs to improve their Flyer. Later they began to teach others to fly. They even opened their own flying school. The brothers did make travel more convenient for people.
