Mum, what does it mean when someone tells you that they have a skeleton(¹Ç÷À) in the closet (Ò³÷)?¡± Jessica asked. ¡°A skeleton in the closet?¡± her mother thought for a while. ¡°Well, it¡¯s something that you would rather not have anyone else know about. For example, if in the past, someone in Dad¡¯s family had been arrested for stealing a horse, it would be ¡®a skeleton in his family¡¯s closet¡¯. He really wouldn¡¯t want any neighbor to know about it.¡±
¡°Why pick on my family?¡± Jessica¡¯s father said with anger. ¡°Your family history isn¡¯t so good, you know. Wasn¡¯t your great-great-grandfather a prisoner who was brought to Australia for his crimes?¡± ¡°Yes, but people these days say that you are not a real Australian unless your ancestors arrived as prisoners.¡± ¡°Gosh, sorry I asked. I think I understand now,¡± Jessica cut in before things grew worse.
After dinner, the house was very quiet. Jessica¡¯s parents were still quite angry with each other. Her mother was ironing clothes and from time to time she looked angrily at her husband, who hid behind his newspaper pretending to read. When she finished, she gathered the freshly pressed clothes in her arms and walked to Jessica¡¯s closet. Just as she opened the door and reached in to hang a skirt, a bony arm stuck out from the dark depths and a bundle of white bones fell to the floor. Jessica¡¯s mother sank in a faint(Ôε¹), waking only when Jessica put a cold, wet cloth on her forehead. She looked up to see the worried faces of her husband and daughter.
¡°What happened? Where am I?¡± she asked. ¡°You just destroyed the school¡¯s skeleton, Mum,¡± explained Jessica. ¡°I brought it home to help me with my health project. I wanted to tell you, but it seemed that as soon as I said something about skeletons and closets, it caused a problem between you and Dad.¡± Jessica looked in amazement as her parents began to laugh madly. ¡°They¡¯re both crazy,¡± she thought.
СÌâ1:According to Jessica¡¯s mother, ¡°a skeleton in the closet¡± means ________.
A£®a family honorB£®a family secret
C£®a family storyD£®a family treasure
СÌâ2:Why did Jessica bring a skeleton home?
A£®She was curious about it.B£®She planned to keep it for fun.
C£®She needed it for her school task.D£®She wanted to scare her parents.
СÌâ3:Jessica¡¯s parents laughed madly at the end of the story probably because ________.
A£®they realized their misunderstanding
B£®they were crazy
C£®they were over excited
D£®they both thought they had won the quarrel

I found out one time that doing a favor (¹ØÐÄ)for someone could get you into a lot of trouble. I was in the eighth grade at the time, and we were having a final test. During the test, the girl sitting next to me whispered something, but I didn¡¯t understand. So I leaned(Çãб)over her way and found out that she was trying to ask me if I had an extra pen. She showed me that hers was out of ink and would not write. I happened to have an extra one, so I took it out of my pocket and put it on her desk.
Later, after the test papers had been turned in, the teacher asked me to stay in the room when all the other students were dismissed. As soon as we were alone she began to talk to me about what it meant to grow up; she talked about how important it was to stand on your own two feet and be responsible for your own acts. For a long time, she talked about honesty and emphasized£¨Ç¿µ÷£©the fact that when people do something dishonest, they are really cheating themselves. She made me promise that I would think seriously about all the things she had said, and then she told me I could leave. I walked out of the room wondering why she had chosen to talk to me about all those things.
Later on, I found out that she thought I had cheated on the test. When she saw me lean over to talk to the girl next to me, it looked as if I was copying answers from the girl¡¯s test paper. I tried to explain about the pen, but all she could say was it seemed very strange to her that I hadn¡¯t talked of anything about the pen the day she talked to me right after the test. Even if I tried to explain that I was just doing the girl a favor by letting her use my pen, I am sure she continued to believe that I had cheated on the test.

There was a man who had a little boy that he loved very much. Every day after work the man would come home and play with the little boy. He would always spend all of his free time playing with the little boy.
One night, while the man was at work, he realized that he had some work to do for the evening, and he couldn¡¯t play with his little boy. But he wanted to give the boy something to keep him busy. Then he saw a magazine with a large map of the world on the cover.
He got an idea. He removed the map, and then tore (˺) it up into small pieces. Then he put all the pieces in his pocket. When he got home, the little boy was ready to play with his dad. The man said he had work to do and couldn't play just now, but he took out all the pieces of the map and spread (Èö)them on the table. He said it was a map of the world, and by the time he could put it back together, his work would be finished, and they could then play.
About half an hour later the boy came to the man and said, "Okay, it's finished. Can we play now?"The man was surprised, saying, "That's impossible. Let's go see." And sure enough, there was the picture of the world; all put together, every piece in its place. The man said, "That's amazing! How did you do that?" The boy said, "It was simple. On the back of the page was a picture of a man. When I put the man together the whole world fell into place."
