【1】E推理判断题。根据短文第一段中的句子“When we face difficulties, we should never give up. 【1】 It is not useful to cry for help.”可知，当我们面对困难时，我们应该永不放弃。哭喊着求助是没有效用的。推知此处描述我们应该尽力美化生活，故答案为E。

【3】A 推理判断题。根据短文第三段“Although his life was very hard, Hong didn’t go away from his father and sister.”可以判断尽管生活艰辛，红没有离开他爸爸和妹妹。可知，下文描述他怎样养家糊口，故答案为A。
