One of sweetest memories as a child is of going down to the river and sitting comfortably on the bank. There I would enjoy the peace and quiet, watch the water rush downstream and listen to songs of birds. I would also watch the bamboo trees bend under the pressure from the wind and watch them return gracefully to their original state after the wind had died down.

When I think about the bamboo tree’s ability to bend and move back, the word “resilience” comes to my mind. When it is used for a person, this word means the ability to readily recover (恢復) from shock, sadness or any other suffering. Have you ever felt like you were going to snap? Have you ever felt like you were at your breaking point? Thankfully, you have survived to talk about it.

Life is a mixture (混合) of good times and bad times, happy moments and unhappy moments. The next time you are experiencing one of those bad times or unhappy moments that take you close to your breaking point, bend, but don’t break. Try your best not to let the situation get the best of you.

An amount of hope will take you through the unpleasant suffering. With hope for a better tomorrow or a better situation, things may not be as bad as they seem. The unpleasant suffering may be easier to deal with if the end result is worth having.

If things get tough and you are at your breaking point, show resilience. Like the bamboo trees, bend, but don’t break!

1.What does the underlined word “snap” in the second paragraph most probably mean?

A. break B. change C. win D. complain

2. What can help people get through sufferings according to the writer?

A. Holding peace and quiet in mind.

B. Waiting until sufferings disappear.

C. Experiencing more bad times.

D. Hoping for a better tomorrow.

3.What would be the best title of this passage?

A. Memories of Bamboo

B. Be Like Bamboo

C. Enjoying Bamboo

任務型閱讀 閱讀下面的短文,根據文中信息完成文后句子。每個空格只能填一個單詞。

Feeding birds

Feeding birds has lots of fun. There are many types of feeders(鳥食罐)and each will attract(吸引)different birds. The bird seeds(種子)and food you put in the feeders will also decide which birds will come to your feeders.

Wild birds eat more than bird seeds! A lot more! Most wild birds don’t eat seeds. The reason

why these birds will not come to your feeders is that they like eating live insects or fish or

something else. To attract hummingbirds(蜂鳥), add one cup of sugar to the food.

We should give them clean fresh water at all times. During winter, water is often frozen. During summer, drinking and bathing water is important for birds.

It is best to provide food all year round. February and August are especially important,

when natural grass and fruit-bearing trees are growing and birds are nesting. During the winter

months, it is often difficult for birds and wildlife to find food.
