A young man was walking through a supermarket to pick up a few things when he noticed an old lady following him round. Thinking nothing of it, he continued.
Finally, he went to the check-out line, but the old lady got in front of him. "Excuse me," she said, "I’m sorry if my staring at(盯著看) you has made you feel uncomfortable,it’s just because you look like my son, whom I haven’t seen for a long time"
"What a pity," replied the young man, "is there anything I can do for you?"
"Yes," she said, "as I’m leaving, can you say ’Good bye, mother’? It would make me feel so much better."
"Sure," answered the young man. So, when the old woman was leaving, he called out, "Goodbye, mother !"
As he stepped up to the check-out counter(收銀臺), he saw that his total was $127. 50. "How can that be?" he asked, "I only buy a few things!"
The clerk replied, "Your mother said that you would pay for her. "

小題1:C
小題1:B
小題1:A

小題1:根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段的內(nèi)容，那位女士在收銀臺讓這個年輕人給她叫母親，離開的時候沒有付款，而是讓年輕人替他付款，讓收銀員誤認為她真是他的母親。所以這位女士不是一個誠實的人，故選B。

Today it is found that school students hardly pay much attention to sports. Is it because they aren’t interested in sports? No. They often say they have other more important things to do.

Dear Brad, ?
In about 3 months, I will take a very important test. If I pass the test with good grades, I can get to the 10th grade and choose a good school to study in. Now I am trying my best to achieve this.

Gradually I become lazy. ②The other day, my head teacher told me that she was disappointed in my poor performance as class monitor . Her words really discouraged me. ?

Dear Nancy,
You asked about places to go and things to do in our town. The Downtown Mall is always  51  . It’s a   52  place in the oldest part of town. There are some good stores and restaurants there.    53  , Trendy Clothing Store is in Downtown Mall. It’s a fun place to shop, and it has the   54   quality clothes. The shop assistants are friendly   55   people. My favorite     56   in town is Nick’s Restaurant. It is close to my house. It’s cheap and the hamburgers there are great. I like Dragon City Restaurant,    57  . You can eat wonderful noodles there and the beef noodles are the most delicious! You must try the dumplings there, too. But it’s more expensive than Nick’s. The Big Cinema is the best cinema in town. It has the biggest screen and the most  58   seats. The Del Ray Complex is also a good place to see movies. It doesn’t have the 59  movies, but the tickets are the cheapest.
Anyway, there are lots of things to do and to see here. Come for a   60  soon!
Love,
Kate

During all this time I never stopped thinking about escape. When I traveled across to the other side of the island (島嶼), I could see the other islands, and I said to myself, “Perhaps I can get there with a boat. Perhaps I can get back to England one day.”
So I decided to make myself a boat. I cut down a big tree, and then began to make a long hole (洞) in it. It was hard work, but about six months later, I had a very fine canoe (獨木舟). Next, I had to get it down to the sea. How silly I was! Why didn’t I think before I began work? Of course, the canoe was too heavy. I couldn’t move it! I pulled and pushed and tried everything, but it didn’t move. I was very unhappy for a long time after that.
That happened in my fourth year on the island. In my sixth year I did make myself a smaller canoe, but I did not try to escape in it. The boat was too small for a long journey, and I did not want to die at sea. The island was my home now, not my prison, and I was just happy to be alive.  A year or two later, I made myself a second canoe on the other side of the island. I also built myself a second house there, and so I had two homes.
My life was still busy from morning to night. There were always things to do or to make. I learnt to make new clothes for myself from the skins of dead animals. They looked very strange, it is true, but they kept me dry in the rain.
I kept food and tools (工具) at both my houses, and also wild goats (山羊). There were many goats on the island, and I made fields with high fences to keep them in. They learnt to take food from me, and soon I had goats’ milk to drink every day. I also worked hard in my corn (玉米) fields. And so many years went by.
小題1: The purpose of making a canoe on the island was to _____________.
A．escape in itB．get to the other side of the island
C．use it for foodD．go around the island
小題2: To survive, the writer did the following EXCEPT _____________.
A．keeping goats for milkB．making clothes from animal skins
C．working in the cornfieldsD．going fishing in the sea
小題3:Why didn’t the writer use his first canoe?
A．Because it was too small for a long journey.
B．Because it was too heavy to get down to the sea.
C．Because there was something wrong with it.
D．Because the writer was busy building a second house.
小題4:From the story, we can learn that _____________.
A．the writer tried to make his stay comfortable on the island
B．the writer had nothing to do on the wild island
C．the writer tried to escape in the second canoe, but failed
D．the writer was in prison on the island, losing his freedom
