    Jack is the most special friend to me.

    Different from other7-year-old children, Jack began to go to school at the age of ten. But he got worried about his mother because she had disability. She couldn't do anything but worked in her small garden to get some money.

    Jack's birthday came. He invited his classmates to his party. He was excited although there wasn't enough food in his home. He waited for so long but none of them came. Jack star-ted crying. "They must think we are poor. "Then his mother said, "No, it is because of me. My disability is the reason why they run away from you. ""They can't hate someone because of his disability, "Jack said.

    The next day, one of Jack's classmates asked, "How was your party? Did anyone come?" And then others started laughing. Jack said angrily, "You didn't come, but it doesn't mean it was the worst day of my life. I have someone that is important to me and that person is my mother. You are laughing at me because of her. Although you don't like her, you won't stop me from loving her. You can't hate someone just because he is disabled. It is just the way that he was born with. "All his classmates were ashamed after hearing this.

Mark and Bert are good friends for most of their lives. A few years ago, when Mark was nine, he developed a serious disease (疾病).The disease took away the boy's eyesight, part of his hearing and his ability to play his favourite sport. However, throughout the years, Bert was still his closest friend. They shared their love of Australian football and enjoyed talking about the Sydney Swans, their favourite team.

Two weeks ago, I took my seat at Sydney Cricket Ground to watch the Swans. The old stadium was full of fans. Shortly into the second quarter(一节), I heard someone describing the match. It was Bert who was bringing the match to life. I turned and saw him. Mark was sitting next to him.

Although he could not see any more, Mark still loved the Swans very much. Usually, he went to the stadium and listened to the match on the radio. However, in the second quarter of that match, the radio broke down. That was when his friend Bert came in.

I hardly paid attention to the Swans and Buddy, the team's star player. Instead, I was listening to Bert and Mark. "What's happening now?" Mark asked. "Don't worry, Mark," Bert said. "Okay. Buddy's got it. Will he go for it? He's going for it! It's his tenth goal! Buddy is on fire!"Mark listened carefully. He was lost in the magic of Australian football and his friend brought the match to life. And I was really moved by this heart-warming moment.

阅读下面三篇材料,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。

When Bruce first met Beethoven's Moonlight over 50 years ago, he lost himself in it at once and dreamed of becoming a pianist. Although a piano was absent at home then, he learned to play Beethoven (贝多芬) by ear. Unbelievably, Bruce entered the Royal Academy of Arts at 16, which marked the beginning of his successful pianist journey. But that's not all. . . 

Bruce's wife works at Elephants World, a reserve (自然保护区) devoted to the care of rescued (救援) elephants. These elephants have worked for humans all their life and many are blind or disabled from being treated badly. After learning about that, Bruce wanted to make the effort to carry something heavy himself. Finally, Bruce and his wife were allowed by the manager to bring a piano into the reserve, bringing music to the elephants' lives. It was truly magical. 

At the beginning, when Bruce started playing, it was hard to hear the piano above the sounds of nature and the elephants chewing (咀嚼) grass. However, everything changed when a blind elephant stopped eating and focused on his playing. It hit Bruce that this elephant had a love for music. From that moment on, Bruce was no longer worried about influencing their pеace. 

Now Bruce continues to play for these elephants in the reserve. Surprisingly, it's the sad male elephants who show the most fascination with the music. He believes it has a calming effect. These elephants' breathing actually slows down when he plays, which tells Bruce they are relaxed and happy. He has even seen elephants seemingly dancing to Beethoven's pieces. With their excellent hearing and the ability to sense vibrations (震动) through their feet, Bruce is confident that elephants can understand the language of human expression. 

Bruce jokes that he is now an "Elepianist" and his human audience (听众) must miss him too much!

As a student, I was most afraid to answer questions in class, and I found that the students around were just like me. At the beginning of each class, when the teacher asked a question, I always lowered my head because I was afraid that the teacher saw me. 

One day, in a foreign language class, Mr. Black gave us a lesson. He wanted us to be active in class, so he asked us some questions, but no one answered. "Let me tell you a story first," he said. 

"When I came to the United States to study, the university often invited famous people to make speeches. Before the beginning of every speech, I found an interesting thing. The students around me always took cardboard folded (折叠的) in half, wrote their names in bold (黑体) with the most eye-catching color, and then placed the cardboard on the seat. So when the speaker needed the answers from the students, he could see and call a listener's name directly. I couldn't understand that. My classmate told me the speakers were all top people, who meant chances. When your answer was to his surprise, it meant he might give you more chances. In fact, I really saw a few students got great chances because of that. "

After listening to the story, I understood that the chance will not find you itself. You must show yourself all the time so that you can find a chance on the card.
