On a hill 600 feet above the surrounding land, we watch the lines of rain move across the scene, the moon rise over the hills, and the stars appear in the sky. The views invite a long look from a comfortable chair in front of the wooden house.
Every window in our wooden house has a view, and the forest and lakes seldom look the same as the hour before. Each look reminds us where we are.
There is space for our three boys to play outside, to shoot arrows, collect tree seeds, build earth houses and climb trees.
Our kids have learned the names of the trees, and with the names have come familiarity and appreciation. As they tell all who show even a passing interest, maple(楓樹)makes the best fighting sticks and white pines are the best climbing trees.
The air is clean and fresh. The water from the well has a pleasant taste, and it is perhaps the healthiest water our kids will ever drink. Though they have one glass a day of juice and the rest is water, they never say anything against that.
The seasons change just outside the door. We watch the maples turn every shade of yellow and red in the fall and note the poplars’(楊樹)putting out the first green leaves of spring. The rainbow smelt fills the local steam as the ice gradually disappears, and the wood frogs start to sing in pools after being frozen for the winter. A family of birds rules our skies and flies over the lake.
【小題1】What can be learned from Paragraph 2?

A.The scenes are colorful and changeable.
B.There are many windows in the wooden house.
C.The views remind us that we are in a wooden house.
D.The lakes outside the windows are quite different in color.
【小題2】By mentioning the names of the trees, the author aims to show that           .
A.the kids like playing in trees B.the kids are very familiar with trees
C.the kids have learned much knowledgeD.the kids find trees useful learning tools
【小題3】What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph mean?
A.The change of seasons is easily felt.
B.The seasons make the scenes change.
C.The weather often changes in the forest.
D.The door is a good position to enjoy changing seasons.
【小題4】What is the main purpose of the author writing the text?
A.To describe the beauty of the scene around the house.
B.To introduce her children’s happy life in the forest.
C.To show that living in the forest is healthful.
D.To share the joy of living in the nature.

A little girl lived in a small, very simple, poor house on a hill and as she grew she would play in the small garden. There, she was able to see over the garden fence and across the valley to a wonderful house high on the hill. This house had golden windows, so golden and shining that the little girl would dream of how magic it would be to grow up and live in a house with golden windows instead of an ordinary house like hers. Although she loved her parents and her family, she yearned to live in such a golden house and dreamed all day about how wonderful and exciting it must feel to live there.
When she got to an age when she gained enough skill and sensibility to go outside her garden fence, she asked her mother if she could go for a bike ride outside the gate and down the lane. After pleading with her, her mother finally allowed her to go, insisting that she should keep close to the house and not wander too far. The day was beautiful and the little girl knew exactly where she was heading! Down the lane and across the valley, she rode her bike until she got to the gate of the golden house across on the other hill.
As she dismounted her bike and leaned it against the gate post, she focused on the path that led to the house and then on the house itself. She was so disappointed as she realized all the windows were plain and rather dirty, reflecting nothing other than the sad neglect of the house that was derelict.
So sad she didn't go any further and turned, and heart broken as she remounted her bike. As she glanced up she saw a sight to amaze her. There across the way on her side of the valley was a little house and its windows glistened golden as the sun shone on her little home.
She realized that she had been living in her golden house and all the love and care she found there was what made her home the 'golden house'. Everything she dreamed was right there in front ofher nose!
【小題1】Why did the girl long for the house on the hill?

A. Because there was a small garden.B.Because it’s magic.
C. Because it’s ordinary.D.Because its windows looked golden.
【小題2】Which  statement is True according to Paragraph 2 and 3?
A. The girl’s mother finally allowed her to go to the golden house alone.
B. The golden house was on the hill where the girl lived.
C.What disappointed the little girl was that the house was locked.
D.Actually , the windows of the golden house were common and covered with dirt.
【小題3】What amazed the girl was that_____
A. Her home was another golden house
B. There was no golden house indeed
C. She could see the golden house only when she looked up
D. The golden house disappeared when the sun shone on it
【小題4】What can be inferred from the passage?
A. The mother thought that she needn’t keep an eye on her daughter.
B. The girl was determined to go to the golden house at the beginning.
C. The girl had no idea where she was heading after leaving home.
D. The girl didn’t love or care for her parents .

About this time every year, I get very nostalgic(懷舊的). Walking through my neighborhood on a fall afternoon reminds me of a time not too long ago when sounds of children filled the air, children playing games on a hill, and throwing leaves around in the street below. I was one of those children, carefree and happy. I live on a street that is only one block long. I have lived on the same street for sixteen years. I love my street. One side has six houses on it, and the other has only two houses, with a small hill in the middle and a huge cottonwood tree on one end. When I think of home, I think of my street. Only I see it as it was before. Unfortunately things change. One day, not long ago, I looked around and saw how different everything has become. Life on my street will never be the same because neighbors are quickly grown old, friends are growing up and leaving, and the city is planning to destroy my precious hill and sell the property to contractors.
It is hard for me to accept that many of my wonderful neighbors are growing old and won’t be around much longer. I have fond memories of the couple across the street, who sat together on their porch swing almost every evening, the widow next door who yelled at my brother and me for being too loud, and the crazy old man in a black suit who drove an old car. In contrast to those people, the people I see today are very old neighbors who have seen better days. The man in the black suit says he wants to die, and another neighbor just sold his house and moved into a nursing home. The lady who used to yell at us is too tired to bother any more, and the couple across the street rarely go out to their front porch these days. It is difficult to watch these precious people as they near the end of their lives because at once I thought they would live forever.
The “comings and goings” of the younger generation of my street are now mostly “goings” as friends and peers move on. Once upon a time, my life and the lives of my peers revolved around home. The boundary of our world was the gutter at the end of the street. We got pleasure from playing night games or from a breathtaking ride on a tricycle. Things are different now, as my friends become adults and move on. Children who rode tricycles now drive cars. The kids who once played with me now have new interests and values as they go their separate ways. Some have gone away to college like me, a few got married, two went into the army, and one went to prison. Watching all these people grow up and go away makes me long for the good old days.
Perhaps the biggest change on my street is the fact that the city is going to turn my precious hill into several lots for now homes. For sixteen years, the view out of my kitchen window has been a view of that hill. The hill was a fundamental part of my childhood life; it was the hub of social activity for the children of my street. We spent hours there building forts, sledding, and playing tag. The view out of my kitchen window now is very different; it is one of tractors and dump trucks tearing up the hill. When the hill goes, the neighborhood will not be the same. It is a piece of my childhood. It is a visual reminder of being a kid. Without the hill, my street will be just another pea in the pod.
There was a time when my street was my world, and I thought my world would never change. But something happened. People grow up, and people grow old. Places changes, and with the change comes the heartache of knowing I can never go back to the times I loved. In a year or so, I will be gone just like many of my neighbors. I will always look back to my years as a child, but the place I remember will not be the silent street whose peace is interrupted by the sounds of construction. It will be the happy, noisy, somewhat strange, but wonderful street I knew as a child.
【小題1】The writer calls up the memory of the street _____________.

A.every year when autumn comes
B.in the afternoon every day
C.every time he walks along his street
D.now that he is an old man
【小題2】The writer finds it hard to accept the fact that _____________.
A.many of his good neighbors are growing old
B.the lady next door who used to yell at him and his brother is now a widow
C.the life of his neighbors has become very boring
D.the man in his black suit even wanted to end his own life
【小題3】The writer thinks of the past all the more when he sees those who had grown up with him _____________.
A.continue to consider home to be the center of their lives
B.leave the neighborhood they grew up in
C.still enjoy playing card games in the evenings
D.develop new interests and have new dreams
【小題4】The biggest change on the writer's street is _____________.
A.removing the hill to make way for residential development
B.the building of new homes behind his kitchen window
C.the fact that there are much fewer people around than in the past
D.the change in his childhood friends' attitude towards their neighborhood
【小題5】What does the writer mean by saying “my street will be another pea in the     pod”?
A.his street will be very noisy and dirty
B.his street will soon be crowded with people
C.his street will have some new attractions
D.his street will be no different from any other street
