Once upon a time all feelings went to an island for a vacation, and each was having a good time. Suddenly, a warning of a strong storm was announced ,so all rushed to their boats. Yet, Love did not wish to run away quickly. There was so much to do. But as the clouds darkened, Love realized it was time to leave. But there were no boats to spare. Love looked around with hope.
Just then Richness was passing by Love in a grand boat. Love shouted, "Richness, can you take me with you?" Richness answered, "No, I can't. There is a lot of gold and silver in my boat. There is no place here for you."
Love decided to ask Vanity(虛榮) who was also passing by in a beautiful boat for help, But Vanity said with a cold voice, “No, I can’t take you with me. My boat will get dirty with your mummy feet.”
Sorrow passed by after some time. Again, Love asked for help. But it was useless. “No, I can’t take you with me. I am so sad. I want to be by myself.”
When Happiness passed by a few minutes later, Love again called for help. But Happiness was so happy that it hardly concerned about anyone else.
Love was growing restless and hopeless. Just then somebody called out, “Come, Love, I will take you with me.” Love did not know who was being so kind, but jumped onto the boat happily.
After getting off the boat, Love met Knowledge. Love asked, “Knowledge, do you know who was so kind to give me a lift when no one else wished to help?”
Knowledge smiled, "Oh, that was Time,"
"Time?" asked Love. "But why did Time help me?" Knowledge smiled with deep wisdom and answered, "Because only Time is capable of understanding how valuable Love is."

解析試題分析：本文敘述了愛的絕望的故事。所有的情感都去一個(gè)小島度假，當(dāng)暴風(fēng)雨要來(lái)了，大家都趕忙離開，但是財(cái)富，虛榮心，悲傷，幸福這些情感沒有一個(gè)人愿意和愛分享一艘船。愛快要絕望了，這是時(shí)間好心愛接回來(lái)。知識(shí)告訴愛，只有時(shí)間才能知道愛是多么有價(jià)值。這個(gè)故事告訴我們，只有經(jīng)過一段時(shí)間，我們才會(huì)理解到愛的重要性。
【小題1】推理判斷題。根據(jù)After getting off the boat, Love met Knowledge. 可知愛從小島上回來(lái)遇見了知識(shí)，故推斷知識(shí)沒有去島上度假。故選D。
【小題2】詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)Sorrow passed by after some time. Again, Love asked for help. But it was useless. “No, I can’t take you with me. I am so sad.可知sorrow的意思和sad的意思相近，都表示悲傷的。故選C。
【小題3】推理判斷題。根據(jù)Just then Richness was passing by Love in a grand boat，.Love decided to ask Vanity(虛榮) who was also passing by，Sorrow passed by after some time， When Happiness passed by a few minutes later, Knowledge smiled, "Oh, that was Time," 可知坐船從愛身邊經(jīng)過的情感依次為Richness→Vanity→Sorrow→Happiness→Time 。故選A。
【小題4】推理判斷題。根據(jù)Because only Time is capable of understanding how valuable Love is.可知只有時(shí)間能夠理解愛是多么有價(jià)值，也就是說經(jīng)過一段時(shí)間后人們會(huì)認(rèn)識(shí)到愛的重要性。故選C。
【小題5】標(biāo)題歸納題。根據(jù)Love was growing restless and hopeless.可知愛一次次的求助助于別人，結(jié)果都沒有人幫助她，因此她絕望了。故選C。

Twenty years ago, I drove a taxi for a living. One night I went to pick up a passenger at 2:30 AM. When I arrived there, I walked to the door and knocked, “Just a minute,” answered a weak, elderly voice.
After a long pause, the door opened. A small woman in her eighties stood before me. By her side was a small suitcase.
When we got into the taxi, she gave me an address, and then asked, “Could you drive through downtown?”
“It’s not the shortest way,” I answered quickly.
“Oh, I’m in no hurry,” she said. “I’m on my way to a hospice(臨終醫(yī)院). I don’t have any family left. The doctor says I don’t have very long.”
I quietly reached over and shut off the meter(計(jì)價(jià)器).
For the next two hours, we drove through the city. She showed me the building where she had once worked, the neighborhood where she had lived, and the furniture shop that had once been a ballroom where she had gone dancing as a girl.
Sometimes she’d ask me to slow down in front of a special building and would sit staring into the darkness, saying nothing.
In the early morning, she suddenly said,” I’m tired. Let’s go now.”
We drove in silence to the address she had given me.
“How much do I pay you?” she asked.
“Nothing.” I said.
“You have to make a living,” she answered. “Oh, there are other passengers,” I answered.
Almost without thinking, I gave her a hug(擁抱). She held on me and said, “You gave an old woman a little moment of joy.”
【小題1】The old woman chose to ride through the city in order to ______.

A．show she was familiar with the city
B．see some places for the last time
C．let the driver earn more money
D．reach the destination on time
【小題2】The taxi driver did not get the money because he ______.
A．wanted to give her a hand
B．shut off the meter by mistake
C．had received her payment already
D．was in a hurry to take other passengers
【小題3】What can we learn from the story?
A．No pains, no gains.
B．People should respect(尊重) each other.
C．An act of kindness can bring people great joy.
D．People should learn to enjoy our life.

Many people think self-confidence is the key to a happy, successful life. But where does self-confidence come from?    【小題1】   .
I’m Lucy. Self-confidence means that I can do something well. It’s even better if someone else tells you that you’re good at something, too. When people listen to me and pay attention to my ideas, I know they like me. When people don’t listen, I sometimes feel sad.  【小題2】   .
I’m Jeff. Respect from my family and friends makes me feel the best. I don’t care if I’m the best football player, or I don’t get the highest grade on a test, or don’t succeed at everything I do.    【小題3】   . If someone says something unkind about you, you don’t mind that much because you know they’re wrong—that means you have self-confidence.
I’m Sue. I really feel good when my mum gives me a hug and says,“Have a nice day!”before I leave the house. Also, one day in a store I asked a salesman where to find something, and to my surprise, he said,“You have a beautiful smile.” For the rest of the day I was happy. These kinds of things have to come naturally and from the heart, but they make a big difference in the way a person feels.
   【小題4】  . Believe that no matter who you are, you can build your own self-confidence.

A. I hope someone will care about me
B. You should remember“You can do it if you think you can.”
C. Here’s what some students have to say about it
D. I only care that I have tried my best and people respect me for it
E. Listening shows they care about me

When I was about 12, I had an enemy, a girl who liked to point out my shortcomings(缺點(diǎn)). Week by week her list grew: I was very thin, I wasn’t a good student, I talked too much, I was too proud, and so on. I tried to hear all this as long as I could. At last, I became very angry. I ran to my father with tears in my eyes.                      He listened to me quietly, then he asked. “Are the things she says true or not? Janet, didn’t you ever wonder what you’re really like ? Well, you now have that girl’s opinion. Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things she said.”                                                                         
I did as he told me. To my great surprise, I discovered that about half the things were true. Some of them I couldn’t change (like being very thin), but a good number I could—and suddenly I wanted to change. For the first time I go to fairly clear picture of myself.            
I brought the list back to Daddy. He refused to take it.“That’s just for you,” he said.“You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself. But you have to learn to listen, not just close your ears in anger and feeling hurt. When something said about you is true, you’ll find it will be of help to you. Our world is full of people who think they know your duty. Don’t shut your ears. Listen to them all, but hear the truth and do what you know is the right thing to do.”                   
Daddy’s advice has returned to me at many important moments. In my life, I’ve never had a better piece of advice.                                                          
【小題1】What does “Week by week her list grew” mean?                                   

A．Week by week she discovered more shortcomings of mine and pointed them out to me.
B．She had made a list of my shortcomings and she kept on adding new ones to it so that it was growing longer and longer.
C．I was having more and more shortcomings as time went on.
D．Week by week, my shortcomings grew more serious.
【小題2】Why did her father listen to her quietly?                                          
A．Because he believed that what her daughter’s “enemy” said was mostly true.
B．Because he had been so angry with his daughter’s shortcomings that he wanted to show this by keeping silent for a while.
C．Because he knew that his daughter would not listen to him at that moment.
D．Because he wasn’t quite sure which girl was telling the truth.
【小題3】Which do you think would be the best title for this passage?                          
A．Not an Enemy, but the Best Friend
B．The Best Advice I’ve Ever Had
C．My Father
D．My Childhood
