I won’t forget her advice
I had a very special teacher in high school many years ago. Her husband died of a heart attack. About a week after his death, she shared some of her insights（見解）with us.
The class was nearly over. She said, “Before class is over, I would like to share with all of you an important thought.”
“Each of us is put here on Earth to learn, share, love, enjoy and give all by ourselves. We must make the best of every single day.”
Her eyes were beginning to water and she went on, “So I would like you all to make me a promise. From now on, on your way to school, or on your way home, find something beautiful to notice. It doesn’t have to be something you see — it could be a nice smell — perhaps of freshly baked bread, or it could be the sound of the breeze slightly blowing the leaves in the trees.”
“Please look for these things, and love them. For, although it may seem common, these things are the stuff（素材）of life. They are the little things we are put here on Earth to enjoy. They are the things we often take for granted. We must make it a point to notice them, for at any time it can all be taken away.”
The class was completely quiet. We picked up our books and went out of the room silently. That afternoon, I noticed more things on my way home from school than I had that whole term.
I usually think of that teacher and try to enjoy all of those things that we sometimes overlook (忽略).
Take notice of something special you see during your lunch hour today. Walk barefoot along the beach at sunset. For as we get older, it is not the things we did that we regret（后悔）, but the things we didn’t do.
小題1:What happened to the teacher’s husband?
A．He was ill.
B．He died of a heart attack.
C．He made a promise.
D．He became a teacher, too.
小題2:The high school teacher shared her insights with her students ____________.
A．on her way to school
B．on her way home
C．a(chǎn)t the beginning of class
D．a(chǎn)t the end of class
小題3:The underlined word “breeze” (in Paragraph 4) means ____________?
A．colourful cloudB．white snow
C．light wind D．heavy rain
小題4:What is the teacher’s advice?
A．We should love life and enjoy things around us.
B．We should share our important thoughts with others.
C．We should never feel sorry for what we have done.
D．We should do importand things and overlook little ones.

One of my favorite things to do is hiking in mountains．Because
nobody likes the idea of getting lost，I always prepare before every
trip．But what’s the best navigation tool，a Global Positioning Sys-
tem(GPS)or a good old map and compass?
Five of my friends and I hiked through the mountains on a trail
(路線)I marked．One team of three carried a GPS，and the other
team used a map and compass．
It took the GPS team 3 hours and 1 1 minutes to get through the
whole hike，however，it took the map and compass team only 2
hours and 49 minutes．The biggest problem the GPS team met was
that they lost the satellite signal(衛(wèi)星信號)in some places．With
no map or compass，they had to walk around until they were in a
place where the signal was good．The map and compass team was
able to spot different landmarks，compare them to their maps and then use the compass to point them in the right direction．
When I head out on my future hikes，I’m bringing a map，a compass and a GPS to show me the way．
(   )小題1:The two teams____．
A．had the same navigation tool  B．went along the same trail  C．had the same problem
(    )小題2:The GPS team spent ____ time than the map and compass team in the whole hike．
