On a hot summer day in America a little boy decided to go for a swim in the old swimming hole behind his house. He dived into the cool water, not realizing that as he swam towards the middle of the lake, a crocodile was swimming toward him.
His mother in the house was looking out of the window and saw the two as they got closer and closer. In great fear, she ran toward the water, shouting to her son as loudly as she could. Hearing her voice, the little boy became alarmed and made a U-turn to swim to his mother. It was too late. Just as he reached her, the crocodile reached him. From the shore, the mother grabbed her little boy by the arms just as the crocodile snatched his legs. That began an incredible tug-of-war (拔河) between the two. The crocodile was much stronger than the mother, but the mother was much too passionate to let go. A farmer happened to drive by, heard their screams, raced from his truck, took aim and shot the crocodile.
Remarkably, after weeks and weeks in the hospital, the little boy survived. His legs were extremely scarred by the attack of the animal. And, on his arms, were deep scratches where his mother's fingernails dug into his flesh in her effort to hang on to the son she loved.
The newspaper reporter, who interviewed the boy, asked if he would show him his scars(伤疤). The boy lifted his legs. And then, with obvious pride, he said to the reporter, “But look at my arms. I have great scars on my arms, too. I have them because my Mom wouldn’t let go.”
Never judge another person's scars, because you don't know how they were made.
24. Which of the following is most related to the underlined word “passionate”?
A. Anxious.
B. Determined.
C. Frightened.
D. Courageous.
25.Who killed the crocodile in the end?
A. A farmer.
B. The boy’s mother.
C. The boy.
D. The boy’s father.
26. In the story the writer intends to tell us that __________.
A. scars always remind people of their past experiences
B. it’s d angerous to swim alone in the water
C. the boy also feels painful in his mind
D. scars do not necessarily mean pain at all times
27. Which of the following will be the best title for the text?
A. A Terrible Experience
B. Women Hold up Half the Sky
C. Scars of Love
D. Don't Judge by Appearances
C
Last night, on my way home I stopped because of being attracted by some
hamburgers at a fast food restaurant. On my way in, a homeless man approached me and asked, “Do you have any bottles lying around?”I knew he would recycle them for a few cents, but I didn’t have any, so I said no. And again he asked, “Can you spare some change (零钱)?”I smiled, and said no again. He was very respectful; he smiled back and said, “OK, thank you.”Even though he didn’t have anything, he was still in good spirits. From the way he spoke I could tell he was smart.
Then I bought one hamburger and enjoyed my meal, but in the back of my mind I wondered whether the homeless man was hungry. After I finished my meal I decided to order another one for him. At this point I didn’t know if he was still around, but I tried anyway.
At the counter I ordered a hamburger and also a hot chocolate, because it was cold outside, and I thought it would help warm him up. They delivered me the hot chocolate first and as I waited for my hamburger, I noticed the homeless man was standing right beside me. I looked at him and smiled, “This hot chocolate is for you.”He replied like a gentleman,“Thank you so much. That’s very kind of you.”
I always believe no matter how hard up (缺钱) I am, there are always those who are worse off than I. When you help someone, it’s not always about money, it’s about love. The love you give today, someone might forget tomorrow. It doesn’t matter. Love anyway, because the greatest thing you can give is love.
