根据短文理解,选择正确答案。

    For ten weeks, in a great house on the island of St Thomas, Dr John C. Lilly tried to teach a six-year-old dolphin to speak English. Margaret Howe, an experiment(实验) helper, would live day and night with Peter, a dolphin. And they would eat, bathe, sleep and play together from Sunday to Friday, with only Saturdays off for Margaret. She lived her life in swimming clothes—with a coat on colder evenings —and cut her hair short so that she could get on with Peter more easily.

    After a few days, Peter was becoming more and more interested in winning her attentions. He threw a ball against her shower towel to get her to play. As time went by, he only wanted to play ball with her and not on his own.

    The problem was that, just at the time Peter and Margaret began to get on well just as two best friends, the experiment ended and the lab was closed. After a few weeks, Margaret received the sad news that Peter had killed himself by refusing to breathe (呼吸), and sinking to the bottom of his pool.

    Dolphins may not speak English, but just like humans, they know all about broken hearts.

(1)、Peter is the name of _________.

A、a doctor B、a dolphin C、a scientist D、an experiment helper
(2)、Margaret worked ________ days a week during the experiment.

A、four B、five C、six D、seven
(3)、To live with the dolphin, Margaret couldn't _________.

A、cut her hair short B、have a common life like others C、wear swimming clothes D、eat, bathe and play together with him

It was the last day of my summer holiday in Spain. I was staying with my family in the south of Spain. It was a very nice 1 with lots to see, such as a very big castle(城堡)and a very interesting museum. Every morning before we 2 our busy day, I would get up early and go to the market to buy fresh fruit and vegetables. 3 I became friends with the market traders who were 4 to see me and greeted(打招呼)me with friendly smiles. So, on that day I had my camera with me and I asked some market traders to stand 5 for a photo. "Of course!" they replied. And they got 6 for me to take the photo. I was looking 7 my camera and walking backwards when suddenly, I 8 to the ground and at the same time knocked a stall(货摊)over. All the produce(农产品)went flying into the air and fell on top of 9 . But it wasn't fruit. It was hundreds of very small 10 and they were all over me. I was very dirty.

I often felt shy in front of a group of people. So I didn't like speaking in front of others. And my first day at the new school made my classmate laugh. 

My teacher asked me1 my name on the blackboard. Of course, I knew my name and knew how to write it. But standing at the blackboard with the eyes of so many classmates on my back made2 nervous. I forgot all the things but those eyes. I wanted to cry. I didn't know what to do. I could not write a word. 

"Just forget us and write your name, " the teacher said3 and walked to my side, "What is your name?" 

I was too4 to answer. 

"Richard, " all the students answered5 me. Then they laughed loudly. 6 sad I was! 

After class, the teacher told me to go to her office. She told me that people might feel nervous7 they speak in front of many people. Then I8 that there was nothing. I just needed to do it as often as possible. 

Since then, I have become brave. I have tried my best to take part in some speech competitions. I used to think if I could not go on, life is nothing but an awful song. But now I know the9 of courage(勇气). I believe that I would be10 confident student.
