阅读下面短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。

It's half past seven on Monday morning: time to get ready for school. Jay Stone rolled out of bed. He did a couple of quick wake-up exercises and then he went over to a mirror and looked at himself.

“Not bad, Stone, not bad,” he said to himself and smiled. Maybe he wasn't ready for Hollywood, but with his dark broad eyes and his thick brown hair, he had the looks that turned girls' heads. He moved in closer to the mirror and smiled, checking his teeth.

“Perfect,” he thought, “Good enough for a toothpaste ad.”

As his eyes moved down to his strong arms and chest he smiled again. The hours he spent on the playground and doing sit-ups have paid off!

 But suddenly, the smile froze(僵住)on his lips. His eyes moved from the upper part of his body down to his legs. His legs were short. Not just short, but far too short for his body. He had the upper body of a six feet boy, but because of his legs, he was much less than six feet. Sitting, he was as tall as almost anyone in his class. Standing, he had to look up at most of the boys and even many of the girls.

Why didn't his legs grow with the rest of his body? At five feet six inches(英寸), he was one of the shortest boys in his class. He was the shortest in his own family, and he was even shorter than his little sister — by three inches! Where did his legs come from?

He certainly didn't get them from his parents. They were both quite tall. Looking through old photos in the family album, he found the answer. It was his grandfather on his mother's side. His short legs were a gift from Grandpa Tuttle. Thanks a lot, Grandpa!

(1)、How did Jay Stone feel about his upper body?
A、Disappointed. B、Interested. C、Proud. D、Uneasy.
(2)、How tall was Jay's little sister?
A、Six feet. B、Five feet six inches. C、Five feet nine inches. D、Five feet three inches.
(3)、Why did Jay's smile disappear suddenly?
A、Because he disliked his arms. B、Because he was upset that his legs were short. C、Because he found something wrong with his face. D、Because he thought he wasted a lot of time exercising.
(4)、What is true according to the passage?
A、Jay's parents had short legs. B、All the other students were taller than Jay. C、Most boys in Jay's class looked up to him. D、Jay was shorter than any other member in his family.
(5)、What can we learn about Jay's grandfather?

举一反三

It was {#blank#}4{#/blank#} a rainy morning. For taxi drivers in this big city, it's the best time{#blank#}5{#/blank#}(make)money. He asked me where he could drop the cell phone off. I told {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(he)the street where I lived. Then I {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(quick)jumped out of bed and got dressed, so I could meet him at the corner.

When he arrived, I thanked him. And I was even {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(happy)than my friend. He moved to this country a few weeks ago— and I could only imagine(设想)how important his cell phone was to him!

I asked the taxi driver for his name, so my friend could thank him. He said my {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(thank)were all that he needed. Then he drove off.

I e-mailed my friend telling him I had his phone. In the evening, he came to my home and I told him {#blank#}10{#/blank#} I got it. My friend was very excited to get back his cell phone. He said he would help others as much as possible.
