    At the age of sixteen, I went on my first volunteer program in West Virginia to repair or build homes for poor families. When we arrived, we discovered that the family we were going to help was living in a trailer（拖车式活动房）that was in poor condition, no bigger than two parking spaces. A group of people had been working on it for two weeks, but every time they finished one problem, another appeared.
    We soon decided that the only way was to build a new house. It was something unusual because normally our goal was to repair old homes. The family was pleased with their new house that was 20 by 30 feet with three bedrooms, a bath and a kitchen.
    On Tuesday of that week, I asked the family’s three boys, Josh, Eric and Ryan, “What do you want for your new room?” Kids in the families we had helped usually wanted toys or posters, so we were surprised when Josh, the oldest boy said, “We just want beds.” The boys had never slept in a bed. That night we had a meeting and decided that beds would be the perfect gift. On Thursday night, a few adults in our group drove to the nearest city and bought beds and new bedding.
    On Friday when we saw the truck coming, we told the family about the surprise. They were very excited.
    That afternoon, while we were setting up the beds, Eric ran into the house to watch us with wide eyes. As Maggie, a member of our group, put one of the pillows on the bed, Eric asked, “What is that?”
    “A pillow,” she replied.
    “What do you do with it?” Eric went on asking.
    “When you go to sleep, you put your head on it,” Maggie answered softly. Tears came to our eyes as she handed Eric the pillow.
    “Oh . . . that’s soft,” he said, holding it tightly.
    Now, when my sister or I start to ask for something that seems very urgent（急迫的）, my dad always asks, “Do you have a pillow?” We know exactly what he means.
    小题1:Why did the writer’s group build a new house for the family?
    A．Because it was their normal work.
    B．Because the family asked them to do it.
    C．Because the trailer could no longer be repaired.
    D．Because they thought it was a perfect gift for the family.
    小题2:What can we learn from the story?
    A．The family needed two parking spaces.
    B．The boys of the family wanted toys and posters.
    C．The family were excited about the beds and bedding.
    D．The writer’s group made some furniture for the family.
    小题3:What is the best title for this passage?
    A．The PillowB．A New House
    C．The FamilyD．An Interesting Program

    小题1:C
    小题2:C
    小题3:A

    试题分析：十六岁时，我第一志愿是在西维吉尼亚为贫困家庭修理或建造房屋。当我们到达时，发现他们居住在活动房中，这种房子总是出现问题，因此，为他们新建了房屋，并且买了床和床上用品。他们家人很兴奋。
    小题1:细节理解题。问题：为什么作者的团队要为这个家庭修建新的房屋？分析原文：A group of people had been working on it for two weeks, but every time they finished one problem, another appeared.句意：一个团队已经工作两个星期了，但是每一次解决一个问题，又出现另一个问题。分析：面对这个问题，活动房不能再修了，因此下文提到要去修建新的房屋。故选C
    小题2:细节理解题。问题：从这个故事中我们了解到了什么？通过短文的理解，我们得知，他们的家人说只需要床，小男孩也说出了这个愿望，作者的团队为他们买来了床和床上用法，因此结合原文，当我们告诉为他们买来床与床上用品时，他们很兴奋。因此第三项符合问题。故选 C
    小题3:细节理解题。问题：短文的最佳题目是什么？通过对全文的理解，作者在参加志愿者活动中，发生的故事，结合一个枕头的故事，寓意着一个很深的含义。因此第一项符合短文的中心。故选A

    Having returned from her round trip, the angry woman stood outside the ticket office of the station. “The railway should pay me back￡12, so you owe me the money,” she said to Harry Jenks, the young man who was working at the office. “You sold me a ticket for May 22nd, but there was no ship from Jersey that night. So my daughter and I had to stay in a hotel. It cost me ￡12.”
    Harry was worried. He remembered selling the woman a return ticket. “Come into the office, Madam,” he said politely, “I’ll just check the Jersey timetable for May 22nd.”
    The woman and her little girl followed him inside. She was quite right, as Harry soon discovered. There was no sailing on May 22nd. How could he have made such a careless mistake? He shouldn’t have sold her a ticket for that day. Wondering what to do, he smiled at the child. “You look sun burnt,” he said to her, “Did you have a nice holiday in Jersey?”
    “Yes,” she answered, shyly, “The beach was lovely. And I can swim, too!”
    “That’s fine,” said Harry. “My little girl can’t swim a bit yet. Of course, she’s only three…”
    “I’m four,” the child said proudly, “I’ll be four and a half.”
    Harry turned to the mother. “I remember your ticket, Madam,” he said, “But you didn’t get one for your daughter, did you?”
    “Er, well…”woman looked at the child, “I mean… she hasn’t started school yet. She’s only four.”
    “A four-year-old child must have a ticket, Madam. A child’s return ticket to Jersey costs…let me see…￡13.50. So if the railway pays your hotel, you will owe￡1.50. The law is the law, but since the fault was mine…”

    Life is full of happiness and bitters. Do you choose to live a happy life or a bittery one?
    In my opinion, happiness is for everyone. You don’t need to care about those who have beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools or those who have nice cars and lots of money and so on. Why? Because those who have big house may often feel lonely and those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads at their free time.
    In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. When you are in trouble at school, your friends will help you; when you study hard at your lessons, your parents are always taking good care of your life and your health; when you get success, your friends will say congratulations to you; when you do something good to others, you will feel happy, too. All these are your happiness. If you notice them, you can see that happiness is always around you.
    Happiness is not the same as money. It is a feeling of your heart. When you are poor, you can also say you are very happy, because you have something else that can’t be bought with money. When you meet with difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy, because you have bad luck. As the saying goes, life is like a revolving (旋转) door. When it closes, it also opens. If you take every chance you get, you can be a happy and lucky person.
    小题1:Happiness is for          ．
    A．those who have large and beautiful houses
    B．those who have cars
    C．those who have lots of money
    D．all people
    小题2:When you do something wrong,          .
    A．people around you will help you
    B．you will have no chance to challenge yourself
    C．your classmates will laugh at you
    D．you will be happy
    小题3:Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
    A．When you get success, your friends will be very proud of you.
    B．You can get help from others when you make mistakes.
    C．You can still be a happy person even if you have little money.
    D．All of the above..
    小题4:We say “Happiness is not the same as money.” because          .

    I stood there listening to my father shout at top of his voice. The look on his face said that one of us had done something wrong.
    “Which one of you did this?”
    We all looked down at the step. There was child’s handwriting in chalk there. I was very frightened. I hope no one could see it. Would he guess it was me? I was so scared. When he asked me, I lied, “Not me, dad.” The other denied(否认) it as well. Of course, we all knew that one of us must have done it. But as the youngest and smallest of the three, I just couldn’t find courage to tell the truth.
