【题目】阅读理解
One day all the employees got to the office. They saw a big sign on the door: “Yesterday the person who's been holding you back in this company died. We invite you to join the funeral in the biggest meeting room.” In the beginning, they all got sad for the death of this person. But after a while they started wondering who the dead person was.
As more people started coming into the meeting room and getting closer to the coffin (棺材), the doubt grew. “Who is holding me back? Well, at least he died,” everyone was thinking.
One by one the employees got closer. And when they looked inside it, they suddenly became silent. They stood there and couldn't say a word, as if someone had touched the deepest part of their hearts. There was a mirror inside the coffin: everyone who looked inside it could see himself or herself.
There was also a sign next to the mirror that said: “There is only one person who can set limits to your growth: it is YOU.” You are the only person that can change your life. You are the only person that can make a difference to your happiness and your success. You are the only person that can help yourself. Your life does not change when your boss changes, when your friends change, when your partner changes or when your company changes. Your life changes when YOU change, when you go further than your limiting beliefs, when you realize that you are the only one responsible for your life. “The most important relationship you can have is the one you have with yourself.”
(1)According to the sign on the door, the funeral was about a person that
A.always treated people nicely
B.was strict with his workmates

A.They felt sorry for this person's death.
B.They felt relieved (释然的) that this person had died.

D.They felt surprised about the bad news.

【题目】阅读理解
I grew up in New Hampshire, a small town in South Canada, where in my father's words for the seasons were “Spring, Summer, Fairtime and Winter!”At that time, a week-long fair was held in the town every autumn. Thousands of people from other towns came to sell and buy things. It was the busiest time of the year.
When “Fairtime” came, my grandma became the busiest person of the family. Grandma was a kind old lady. She was good at cooking. All her relatives liked the food she cooked. During “Fair time”, they would come to live in her house and have meals there. Grandma was always happy to look after them.
Year after year, many people moved to big cities. There was no longer “Fairtime”. Grandma became very old and was gradually going blind. My parents and I moved to live with Grandma. We did our best to make her life comfortable. I was at high school then. What I often did at home was to help Grandma with the daily newspaper's crossword puzzle. However, she didn't look happy. She often sat in her room for hours, without saying a word.
To attract(吸引) people to move back, the Town Hall decided to reopen the fair. One day, when I came back from school, I saw Grandma wearing her glasses, washing the dishes in the kitchen. With a big smile on her face, she looked much younger. She told me that her two nieces(侄女) would come. “They said the food I cooked was very delicious and they wanted to stay in my house again,” Grandma said happily. “They will stay here for one week and we can have a big party. That must be the busiest week I've had in years!”
I suddenly realized that Grandma didn't want to be looked after. She wanted to be “useful” and helpful.

【题目】Dear Tommy,

I’m writing to you on your third birthday. I want to tell you something about your grandma’s time. I was born sixty-eight years ago in a small village.

Transportation used to be a big problem. When we traveled from village to village, we used to walk or ride horses.

Shopping was not an easy job, either. There were no supermarkets in the neighborhood. We used to grow most of our own food: rice and vegetables. We kept things cool in a special underground room.

The biggest difference is that you have electricity. We didn’t have electricity until very late in our small village. We didn’t have any televisions of course. We used to perform our local(地方的)music and enjoy it very much.

Life used to be very hard, but I was not upset. I would like you to know about the old days and be happy about what you have when you grow up. Remember, feeling good about life is the key to happiness.

Love,

Your grandma
