Many years ago, when I was working as a volunteer at a hospital, I got to know a little girl named Lisa. The poor little girl had a very serious disease(疾病)and was dying. The doctor had done his best but no medicine really worked. The only chance to save her seemed to be a blood transfusion(輸血)from her five-year-old brother. The little boy had the same disease before and had developed the antibodies(抗體)to fight the illness.
The doctor talked to the little boy about what they planned to do, and asked him if he would like to give his blood to his sister. I saw him hesitate(遲疑) for a moment. Then he took a deep breath and said, "Yes, I’ll do it if it can save Lisa."
As the transfusion was going on, the little boy lay quietly in bed next to his sister. He looked at her and smiled all the time. When everything was done and the color returned to his sister’s face, his smile disappeared and he looked a little afraid. He looked up at the doctor and asked, "Will I start to die now?"
He was too young to understand the doctor. He thought he would have to give all his blood to his sister, but he agreed.
小題1:What happened to the little girl named Lisa later?
A．She died of a very serious disease.
B．She got better with the antibodies from her brother.
C．She lost her little brother.
D．The transfusion failed and her illness got worse.
小題2:How did the five-year-old boy understand the doctor’s plan?
A．He thought he was going to lose all his blood.
B．He thought he was going to be killed.
C．He thought he was going to die together with his sister.
D．He thought he was going to die when he was older.
小題3:What did the boy feel when the doctor talked to him about the transfusion?
A．He was unhappy to help his sister.
B．He was so afraid that he refused to do anything.
C．He was worried about his sister.
D．He was willing to give his blood.
小題4: The writer still remembers the story after many years ______.
A．because the little girl had a very strange disease
B．because the sister and brother had the same disease
C．because the doctor saved the little girl’s life
D．because of what the boy did for his sister

One day when some government officials(官員) were building a barn(谷倉), they found a mouse hole in a corner and used smoke to make the mice inside the hole come out. A while later they indeed saw mice running out, one after another. Then, everyone thought that all the mice had escaped. But just as they began to clean up, they saw two mice squeezing(擠)out at the mouth of the hole. With some efforts, the mice finally got out. However, it was strange that after they came out of the hole, they didn’t run away immediately. Instead, one chased after the other near the mouth of the hole. It seemed that one was trying to bite the tail of the other.
Everyone was puzzled(困惑), so they stepped near to take a look. They realized that one of the mice was blind and couldn’t see anything, and the other was trying to allow the blind mouse to bite on his tail so that he could pull the blind one with him to escape.
After seeing what happened, everyone was speechless and lost in thought. During the meal time, the group of people sat down in a circle and started to chat about what happened to the two mice.
One serious American official said, “I think the relationship between those mice was that of king and guard(衛(wèi)兵).” The other thought for a while and said, “That is why!”
A smart Frenchman said, “I think the relationship between those two mice was that of husband and wife.” Again the others thought for a while, and all felt it made sense.
A Japanese said, “I think the relationship between those two mice was that of mother and son.” Once again the others thought for a while, and felt this was more reasonable. So they expressed(表達(dá)) agreement another time.
At that moment, one Chinese asked, “Why did those two mice have to have a certain relationship?”
Suddenly, the group looked back at the Chinese and stayed speechless. The American official, the French and the Japanese who had spoken earlier all lowered their heads in shame(羞愧), and did not dare to answer.
In fact, the true love is not built on friendship, loyalty(忠誠) or blood relationship.
Instead, it is based on no relationship.
小題1:Neither of the two mice ran away immediately because ________.
A．one was biting the other
B．the mouth of the hole was too small
C．they were not afraid of smoke
D．one was trying to help the blind one
小題2: Why did the officials lower their heads in shame according to the passage?
A．They didn’t dare to answer.
B．They didn’t realize the importance of protecting animals.
C．They felt sorry they had driven a poor blind mouse away.
D．They didn’t express themselves much better.
小題3:It is clear that ________.
A．a(chǎn)ll the mice came out of the hole easily
B．each of the people understood the relationship differently
C．the people wanted to kill the mice with smoke
D．the people knew one of the mice was blind at first
小題4:The words “it made sense” probably mean ________
A．it was correctB．it was strange
C．it was funnyD．it was sweet
小題5:The best title for the passage is ________.
A．Two Lovely MiceB．Help Produces Love
C．Love Is AllD．Friends in Need

Many years ago, when I was fresh out of school and working in Denver, I was driving to my parents’ home in Missouri for Christmas. I stopped at a gas station(加油站) about 50 miles from Oklahoma City, where I was planning to stop and visit a friend. While I was standing in line at the cash register(收款臺(tái)), I said hello to an older couple（夫婦）who were also paying for gas.
I took off, but had gone only a few miles when black smoke poured from the back of my car, I stopped and wondered what I should do. A car pulled up behind me. It was the couple I had spoken to at the gas station. They said they would take me to my friend’s. We chatted on the way into the city, and when I got out of the car, the husband gave me his business card.
I wrote him and his wife a thank-you note for helping me. Soon afterward, I received a Christmas present from them. Their note that came with it said that helping me had made their holidays wonderful.
Years later, I drove to a meeting in a nearby town in the morning. In late afternoon I returned to my car and found that I’d left the lights on all day, and the battery（電池） was dead. Then I noticed that the Friendly Ford dealership - a shop selling cars - was right next door. I walked over and found two salesmen in the showroom.
"Just how friendly is Friendly Ford?" I asked and told them my trouble. They quickly drove a pickup truck (小貨車) to my car and started it. They would accept no payment, so when I got home, I wrote them a note to say thanks. I received a letter back from one of the salesmen. No one had ever taken the time to write him and say thank you, and it meant a lot, he said.
"Thank you" - two powerful words. They’re easy to say and mean so much.
小題1: The writer planned to stop at Oklahoma City ______.

Once a circle missed a wedge(楔子). The circle wanted to be whole, so it went around looking for its missing piece. But because it was incomplete and therefore could roll only very slowly.  It admired the flowers along the way. It chatted with grasses. It enjoyed the sunshine. It found lots of different pieces, but none of them fit. So it left them all by the side of the road and kept on searching. Then one day the circle found a piece that fit perfectly. It was so happy. It put the found piece into itself and began to roll. Now it was a perfect circle, it could roll very fast, too fast to notice the flowers or to talk to the grasses. When it rolled so quickly, it realized how different the world seemed. Then it stopped, left the found piece by the side of the road and rolled slowly away.
The lesson of the story , I suggested, was that in some strange sense we are more whole when we are missing something. The man who has everything isn’t in some ways a whole man. He will never know what it feels like to yearn(渴望), to hope, to come true the dream of something better.
根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，判斷句子正（T）誤(F)。 （共5小題，每小題2分，滿分10分）
小題1: At first, the circle couldn’t roll fast, because it wanted to chat with the grasses.
小題2: The circle didn’t find the missing piece at last.
小題3: When it was a perfect circle, it rolled too fast to notice the flowers or to talk to the grasses.
小題4: The circle stopped by the side of the road and enjoyed the sunshine.
小題5: In some days, a man still will be perfect even if he misses something.
