Driving to a friend’s house on a recent evening, I was struck by the sight of the full moon rising just above my friend’s rooftops, huge and round, yellow through the dust and smoke of the city. I stopped to watch it for a few moments, thinking what a pity it was that most city livers---myself included---usually miss sights like this because we spend most of our lives indoors.

My friend had also seen it. He grew up living in a forest in Europe, and the moon meant a lot to him then. It had touched much of his life.

I know the feeling. Last December I took my seven-year-old daughter to the mountainous jungle of northern India with some friends. We stayed in a forest rest house with no electricity or hot water. Our group had campfires outside every night, and indoors when it was too cold outside. The moon grew to its fullest during our trip. Between me and the high mountains lay three or four valleys. Not a light shone in them and not a sound could be heard. It was one of the quietest places I have ever known, a bottomless well of silence. And above me was the full moon.

Today our lives are connected with glass, metal, plastic and fiber-glass. We eat and breathe things our bodies were not designed to process. We have televisions, cell phones, pagers, electricity, heaters, air-conditioners, cars and computers. White noise and pollution is in the air. Radio waves and strange lights are constantly disturbing our minds and bodies.

Struggling through traffic that evening at the end of a tiring day, most of it spent indoors, I saw the moon and remembered these things. And I thought: before long, I would like to live in a small cottage. There I will grow vegetables and read books and walk in the mountains and perhaps write. I may grow old there. But I will be able to walk outside on a cold silent night and touch the moon.

What was the author’s pity in this passage?

A. Most people living in the city failed to see the beautiful moon.

B. There was too much pollution in the city.

C. There were too many modern inventions.

D. There was too much traffic on the road.

What attracted the author most according to the passage?

A. The mountainous jungle of India.           B. The fullest moon.

C. The high mountains in India.                  D. All kinds of modern inventions.

The author longs for ________.

A. Camping outside at night                     B. Returning to the nature

C. Writing books                                     D. Watching the moon

The main idea of this passage probably is “________”.

A. Disadvantage of Living in Cities

B. The Pleasure of Being out at Night

C. Touched by the Moon                    

D. Pollution Caused by Modern Technology

It was raining as I got off the train in Nashville, Tennessee. I was tired so I went straight to my hotel.
A big, heavy man was walking up and down in the hotel lobby. Something about the way he moved made me think of a hungry dog looking for a bone. He had a big, fat, red face and a sleepy expression in his eyes. He introduced himself as Wentworth Caswell – Major Wentworth Caswell – from “a fine southern family”. Caswell pulled me into the hotel’s barroom and yelled for a waiter. We ordered drinks. While we drank, he talked continually about himself, his family, his wife and her family. He said his wife was rich. He showed me a handful of silver coins that he pulled from his coat pocket.
By this time, I had decided that I wanted no more of him. I said good night.
I was born in the south myself. But I live in New York now. I write for a large magazine. My boss had asked me to go to Nashville. The magazine had received some stories and poems from a writer in Nashville, named Azalea Adair. The editor liked her work very much. The publisher asked me to get her to sign an agreement to write only for his magazine.
I left the hotel at nine o’clock the next morning to find Miss Adair. It was still raining. As soon as I stepped outside I met Uncle Caesar. He was a big, old black man with fuzzy gray hair. Uncle Caesar was wearing the strangest coat I had ever seen. It must have been a military officer’s coat. It was very long and when it was new it had been gray. But now rain, sun and age had made it a rainbow of colors. Only one of the buttons was left. It was yellow and as big as a fifty cent coin.
Uncle Caesar stood near a horse and carriage. He opened the carriage door and said softly, “Step right in, sir. I’ll take you anywhere in the city.”
“I want to go to 861 Jasmine Street,” I said, and I started to climb into the carriage. But the old man stopped me. “Why do you want to go there, sir?”
“What business is it of yours?” I said angrily. Uncle Caesar relaxed and smiled. “Nothing, sir. But it’s a lonely part of town. Just step in and I’ll take you there right away.”
861 Jasmine Street had been a fine house once, but now it was old and dying. I got out of the carriage.
“That will be two dollars, sir,” Uncle Caesar said. I gave him two one-dollar bills. As I handed them to him, I noticed that one had been torn in half and fixed with a piece of blue paper. Also, the upper right hand corner was missing.
【小題1】The narrator （故事的敘述者）got to Nashville probably _______.

A．in the morningB．a(chǎn)t noonC．in the afternoonD．in the evening
【小題2】 The narrator didn’t like Caswell mainly because of ________.
A．his appearanceB．his familyC．the way he talked and behavedD．his wife
【小題3】 The publisher told the narrator to go to Nashville ______.
A．to get a writer to sign an agreement for his magazine
B．to collect some stories and poems from a writer
C．to look for good writers for his magazine
D．to visit his old friend Azalea Adair
【小題4】 Uncle Caesar’s strange coat ________.
A．was worn by a military officerB．was a new gray coat
C．was an old yellow raincoatD．had only one button left
【小題5】 From the question “Why do you want to go there, sir?”, we guess that Uncle Caesar _______.
A．wanted to know why the narrator wanted to go there
B．knew the place and was concerned about the narrator
C．would charge two dollars for taking the narrator there
D．must have lived in the neighbourhood before

      There were smiling children all the way. Charily they knew at what time the train passed their homes and they made it their business to stand along the railway, wave to complete strangers and cheer them up as they rushed towards Penang. Often whole families stood outside their homes and waved and smiled as if those on the trains were their favorite relatives. This is the simple village people of Maiaysia. I was moved.

     I had always traveled to Malaysia by plane or car, so this was the first time I was on a train. I did not particularly relish the long train journey and had brought along a dozen magazines to read and reread. I looked about the train. There was not one familiar face. I sighed and sat down to read my Economics.

     It was not long before the train was across the Causeway and in Malaysia. Johore Baru was just another city like Singapore, so I was tired of looking at the crowds of people as they hurried past. As we went beyond the city, I watched the straight rows of rubber trees and miles and miles of green. Then the first village came into sight, Immediately I came alive; I decided to wave back.

     From then on my journey became interesting. I threw my magazines into the waste basket and decided to join in Malaysian life. Then everything came alive. The mountains seemed to speak to me. Even the trees were smiling. I stared at everything as if I was looking at it for the first time.

     The day passed fast and I even forgot to have my lunch until I felt hungry. I looked at my watch and was surprised that it was 3:00 pm. Soon the train pulled up at Butterworth. I looked at the people all around me. They all looked beautiful. When my uncle arrived with a smile, I threw my arms around him to give him a warm hug (擁抱). I had never done this before. He seemed surprised and then his weather-beaten face warmed up with a huge smile. We walked arm in arm to his car.

     I looked forward to the return journey.

1. The author expected the train trip to be

   A. adventurous  B. pleasant   C. exciting   D. dull

2. What did the author remember most fondly of her train trip?

    A. The friendly country people.         B. The mountains along the way.

    C. The crowds of people in the streets.    D. The simple lunch served on the train.

3. Which of the following words can best take the place of the word "relish" in the second

     paragraph?    A. choose   B. enjoy    C. prepare for   D. carry on

4, Where was the writer going?

    A. Johore Baru,   B. The Causeway.   C. Butterworth,   D. Singapore.

5. What can we learn from the story?

    A, Comfort in traveling by train.    B. Pleasure of living in the country.

    C. Reading gives people delight.    D. Smiles brighten people up.
