D

        In my second year of high school,the class was scheduled to run the mile.

        When the coach yelled “ Ready. Set. Go !”,I rushed out like an airplane,faster than anyone else for the first 20 feet. I made up my mind to finish first. As we came around the first of four laps,there were students all over the track (跑道). By the end of the second lap,many of the students had already stopped. They had given up and were on the ground breathing heavily. As I started the third lap,only a few of my classmates were on the track. By the time I hit the fourth lap,I was alone. Then it hit me that nobody had given up. Instead,everyone had already finished. As I ran that last lap,I cried. And 12 minutes, 42  seconds after starting,I crossed the finishing line. I fell to the ground. I was very upset.

        Suddenly my coach ran up to me and picked me up,yelling, “ You did it,Mark!You finished,son. You finished !?,He looked at me straight in the eyes,waving a piece of paper in his hand. It was my goal (目標) for the day which I had forgotten. I had given it to him before class. He read it aloud to everyone. It simply saidI,Mark Brown,will finish the mile run tomorrow,come what may. My heart lifted. My tears went away,and I had a smile on my face as if I had eaten a banana. My classmates clapped. It was then I realized .winning isn’t always finishing first. Sometimes winning is just finishing.

                             (四) (中考•咸寧) 

        What do you like to have when you wake up? Do you like to have a ① /Tau/,a cup of tea or a piece of fruit?

        How about eggs,pork,sausages,beans in tomato sauce,bread and mushrooms,all cooked in an oily frying pan?

        This is,according to tales,the traditional British breakfast, otherwise known as the “Full English” or “Fry Up”. It's meaty, fatty, salty and unhealthy,and it's served all day,every day.

        We British proudly tell the story of how,when most people worked as farmers,they needed a “ real” breakfast — a“British breakfast” to get them to start for a long day's work.

        Nowadays,we often continue ,②the “Full English” is eaten daily by truck drivers and builders,who also work long hours and don't have regular meals.

        But does every British person really chew (咀嚼) through this daily mountain?

        A recent survey of those builders I mentioned before showed that less than 1 percent had a regular “Fry Up” and most actually preferred salad or sushi.③In fact studies show that about two-thirds of British people don't eat breakfast at all.

        But then,how often do you eat Beijing Roast Duck,go to Chinese opera or do a Sichuanese mask-changing dance?

        We love to talk about how much we love our traditions,even if we only actually ④/keri/ them out when guests are around. In fact, many British people don't actually know how to make a British breakfast,which is why cafes are so good at serving them to tourists.

        I did know one person who ate a Brilish breakfast every morning,though ⑤他不是英國人.He was from the Netherlands.

        Maybe he wanted to surprise the crowd with his own strange tradition—being the only person eating a British breakfast,and the only non-British person in the room.

                                       D 

        Chinese are very generous (慷慨的) when it comes to educating their children. Not caring about the money,parents often send their children to the best schools or even a-broad. They also want their children to take extra-course activities where they will learn a musical instrument or ballet or other classes. The Chinese believe that the more expensive an education is,the better it is. So the parents will spend lots of money on education. Even poor couples will buy a computer for their son or daughter.

        However,what most parents fail to see is that the best early education they can give their children is usually very cheap.

        Parents can see that their children's skills vary (多樣化) ,skilled in some areas while poor in others. What most parents fail to realize though,is that today's children lack (缺乏) self-respect (自尊) and self-confidence.

        The problem is that parents are only educating their children on how to take multiple-choice (多樣化選擇) tests and how to study well,but parents aren’t teaching them the most important skills they need to be confident,happy and clever.

        Parents can achieve this by teaching practical skills like cooking,sewing and doing housework.

        Teaching a child to cook will improve many of the skills that he will need later in life. Cooking requires patience and time. Ifs an enjoyable but difficult experience. A good cook always tries to improve his cooking,so he will learn to work hard and gradually to finish his job successfully. His result,a well-cooked dinner,will give him much satisfaction and a lot of self-confidence.

        Some old machines,such as a broken radio or TV set that you give your child to play with will make him curious (好奇) and arouse (激發(fā)) his interest. He will spend hours looking at them,trying to fix them;your child might become an engineer when he grows up. These activities aren^ merely teaching a child to read a book,but rather to think,to use his mind. And that is more important.

   A. are too strict with their children

   B. are too rich to educate their children

   D. are too poor to educate their children
