It was my first day at school. I felt nervous. I went to all my classes with no friends. I felt like no one cared.

I listened carefully to all the lessons and waited for lunch time at one o’clock. Then, finally, the bell rang. It was time to talk and have fun.

In the lunch line I met a new friend from Arabia(阿拉伯), and though I am Jewish, we got along well. I was so happy when she said, “Sit with us at our table.” She showed me the table next to the door.

So I agreed. I took my dish and was going to walk with her across the floor, when suddenly someone stopped me. “Hey, I saw you on the bus,” said a tall girl in a long skirt. “I see your Jewish star necklace(項鏈). You should sit with us.”

At that moment I looked around. The Spanish only sat with other Spanish, the Russians always with Russians and never the Arabs with the Jews.

I knew why wars(戰(zhàn)爭) started. Everyone sticks to(堅持) his or her own kind. The lunchroom was like a map of the world. Why was everyone so blind(盲從)?

And so I didn’t go with this tall girl, but went with the first, and she was friendly to me. I built a bridge between two worlds when I sat with those different from me.

51. How did the writer feel on her first day at school?

        A. Excited.           B. Stressed.         C. Scared.        D. Happy.

52. We can tell from the story that the tall girl in the long skirt is _________.

        A. Spanish           B. Russian          C. Jewish         D. Arab

53. Whom did the writer sit with to have lunch at last?

        A. The girl from Arabia.                B. The girl in a long skirt.

        C. The girl with a necklace.             D. Nobody else.

54. From the underlined sentence “The lunchroom was like a map of the world”, we can know that ___________.

     A. The lunchroom was really a map of the world.

     B. There was a map of the world in the lunchroom.

      C. Students from the same country liked to sit together for lunch in the lunchroom.

     D. Students from different countries liked to sit together for lunch in the lunchroom.

55. Which words can be used to describe the writer?

        A. Special and shy.              B. Brave and different.   

     C. Quiet and unfriendly.          D. Good-looking and outgoing.
