    For as long as I can remember, Grandma’s plentiful tomato garden has been a sign of summer’s end. Each September, just as the decreased heat of the sun suggests cooler days, Grandma requests (ask for something) my help in her tomato garden. I’m sure that she cannot pick tomatoes without my youthful eyes and quick mind. She says we need to examine each tomato and agree on its readiness for picking. While Grandma’s request for my help in the tomato garden is always the same, her desire for my help seems to increase each year.
    　　Grandma has eyes for finding even the tomatoes hidden by undergrowth and other tomatoes. I, however, just turn circles looking for the ones I think Grandma will like. I spot what looks like a ripe（成熟的）tomato, head in its direction, and then get sidetracked by another that appears to be equally ripe. I usually end up watching Grandma and trying to stay out of her way, which seems the only way my eyes and mind are useful.
    　　There we are, lost in the tomato vines（藤）. Grandma’s eyes are always knowing, and they are no different in the vegetable garden. From afar she spots (notice) what looks like a ripe tomato. As she walks toward the garden, she evaluates the tomato for a second time, but from a different angle. I already know it will end up in the basket with the pile of others Grandma has carefully chosen. However, Grandma acts as if she needs a final look to be sure. She calls me to her side, kneels beside the vine while enjoying the warmth of the fading sunlight on her face, and grasps the tomato in her hand. She turns each round, red ball toward the sunlight before disconnecting it from the vine with a half-hearted smile.
    　　She then looks at me. I nod my head and smile. Grandma assumes I smile in agreement with her tomato selection. I know I smile, instead, at her.
    小题1: Why does Grandma ask the author to go to the tomato garden with her?
    A．He can help pick more tomatoes.
    B．He can learn the hardship of labor.
    C．She enjoys staying with him while working.
    D．She tries to share tomato harvest with him.
    小题2:The second paragraph shows that the writer _________.
    A．isn’t good at picking tomatoes
    B．doesn’t like to stay with Grandma
    C．thinks his eyes and mind are useful
    D．is trying to be out of Grandma’s sight
    小题3: What’s the best title of the story?
    A．Gardening—good for my Grandma.
    B．Growing Grandma.
    C．Gardening—good for my growth.
    D．Picking tomatoes.

    小题1:C
    小题1:A
    小题1:D

    试题分析：这篇文章讲的是我并不擅长摘西红柿，但是每年夏末奶奶还是要找我和她自己一起摘西红柿，由此表达出祖孙两人之间深厚的感情。
    小题1:推断题。本题从第一段可知奶奶和她一起摘西红柿。理由是我的youthful eyes and quick mind。但从第二段又可知奶奶找西红柿比我快多了，因此可知奶奶的真正目的是为了和孙子在一起。故选C
    小题2: 细节推断题。第二段I, however, just turn circles looking for the ones I think Grandma will like. I spot what looks like a ripe（成熟的）tomato, head in its direction, and then get sidetracked by another that appears to be equally ripe.我找奶奶可能会喜欢的西红柿，找到一个熟的，伸手去摘，却摘回另外一个。可知他很不善于干这种活。故选A
    小题3:主旨题。通读全文，可总结这篇文章是围绕摘西红柿这件事表达奶奶与孙子之间的亲情,所以本文的标题应该是摘西红柿。故选D
    点评：每一篇阅读材料都会表达一个核心主题，往往都是积极的有教育意义的。本文表达了很深刻的祖孙之间的血浓于水的亲情。阅读此类文章可以把握好事情发展的时间先后顺序，在题目中找出文章的相对应出处，再进行仔细辨别，找出答案。

    Each day I took the same route to work and passed by a security guard (保安）.  1  greeted everyone walking by and made small talk with many of the passers-by and wishing them well. His simple “hello” made people feel   2 . His cheerful smile became a part of my day. When he was absent, many people noticed it, and I felt a little bit empty.
    The first few times, I didn’t say hello back to him when he greeted me. I was   3  in my own world. On Monday the security guard asked me:“How was your weekend?” I told him about my visit to California, to see my mother, who had colon cancer. I  4 how I visited her each month. “The time with my mother is so precious(珍贵的),   5  I know that each time may be the last.”
    He listened like a close friend I’d known for years. He felt my   6 and my love. He shared how he had lost his father to cancer two years before. He said, “I understand what you are going through. My father passed away while I was serving in Germany. Because of some reasons I was unable to fly back in time. I was unable to say goodbye to him. I wish I could have been with him, given him a hug, and told him I loved him. You are really lucky to have the gift of   7 .”
    As I walked away, I realized I did not even know his name. The following day, on my way to work, I said: “After we spent all that time   8 yesterday, I still don’t know your name.” He answered, “Gary.” I responded back, “I’m Deborah.”
    After that, we talked and shared stories about our weekends, dreams and families.
    Later, Gary got   9  a new job and moved away. It’s been several years since I last spoke to him, yet the memory feels like yesterday. Gary reached out to me,   10  me and made my morning the best part of the day. I experienced the beauty of friendship and love.
    In the business of life, we often forget to wish a stranger hello although how easy it is, and how great and lasting a   11  it can make. When you say hello to a stranger you become like a pebble(鹅卵石) thrown into a pond. With each ripple (波纹）you create, you spread love that continues to   12 . Make a point of saying hello to a stranger today. You will give the gift that keeps on giving.

    A woman repeated a bit of gossip (流言) about a neighbor. Within a few days the whole neighborhood knew the story. The neighbor was deeply hurt. Later the woman learned that it was completely untrue. She was very sorry and went to a wise old man to find out what she could do to repair the harm.
    “Go to the market,” he said, “and buy a chicken, and have it killed, then on your way home, pick its feathers(毛) and drop them one by one along the road.” Although surprised by this advice, the woman did what she was told.
    The next day the wise man said, “Now, go and collect all those feathers you dropped yesterday and bring them back to me.”
    The woman followed the same road, but she was so discouraged when she found the wind had blown all the feathers away. After looking for hours, she returned with only three in her hand.
    “You see,” said the old man, “it’s easy to drop them, but it’s impossible to get them back. So it is with gossip. It doesn’t take much to spread（散布） a gossip, but once you do, you can never completely undo（弥补） the wrong.”
    小题1:Why did the woman feel sorry?
    A．She didn’t know the story.
    B．She hurt her neighbor deeply.
    C．She was hurt deeply.
    D．She was told an untrue story.
    小题2:The underlined word “discouraged” might mean          .
    A．surprisedB．excitedC．upsetD．pleased
    小题3:Which of the following statements is true?
    A．The gossip didn’t hurt anyone at all.
    B．The wise man is not kind enough.
    C．All the feathers had been blown away..
    D．The woman was given a lesson.
    小题4:What the wise man said has nearly the same meaning as the Chinese phrase “_________”.
    A．覆水难收B．无中生有C．欲速不达D．得道多助
