    When I was fourteen years old, I made my first visit to the United States. It wasn’t the first time I had been abroad (Like many English children, I had often been to France). So when I went to America I thought I would have a nice easy holiday without any language problem.
    How wrong I was! The misunderstanding began at the airport. I was looking for a public telephone to tell my American friend Danny that I had arrived. A friendly old man saw me looking lost and asked if he could help me.
    “Yes,” I said, “I want to give my friend a ring.”
    “Well, that’s nice,” he said, “Are you getting married? But aren’t you too young?”
    “Who is talking about marriage?” I replied, “I only want to give my friend a ring to tell him I’ve arrived. Can you tell me where there is a phone box?”
    “Oh,” he said, “there is a phone downstairs.”
    When at last we met, Danny explained the misunderstanding to me.
    “Don’t worry,” he said to me, “I had so many difficulties at first. There are lots of words which Americans use differently in meaning from British people. You’ll soon get used to all the funny things they say. Most of the time, British and American people understand each other.”
    小题1:The writer was from________.
    A．JapanB．FranceC．AmericaD．England

    A．he wouldn’t have any language difficulties

    Albert Einstein was born in 1879. As a boy he was not happy in school. He seemed to be slower than others and he often failed in his exams. Most of his teachers did not like him. His parents, however, loved him very much. They often said to the teachers, “Albert is a bright boy.

    Last week, the manager of an old jeweler’s shop received a letter marked “personal”. As he was very busy, the letter lay on his desk till teatime. When he opened it, a $10 note fell out onto his desk. With the note was a short letter. This is what it said:

    I came to your shop to buy a wedding ring one day. The assistant brought some rings for me to have a look, later she was called away, and then I put one of the rings into my pocket. When she came back, I said I did not know the size of my girlfriend’s finger. So I left the shop without paying for the ring. My wife died a month ago, and the fact that I never paid for her ring has been on my conscience (让我良心不安) all these years. I always feel guilty about that. At that time the ring cost $2, and I think that is about five times -- $10 at today’s price.
    Now I am sending you that amount.
    Yours truly,
    A customer

    小题4:The customer wrote to the manager in order to ________.
    A．return the ringB．say thanks to him
    C．ask him for some adviceD．send the money for the ring
    小题5:Which is NOT true according to the passage?
    A．The manager opened the letter by himself.
    B．The manager thought life was full of surprise.
    C．When the customer’s wife knew the fact, she was impatient.
