    One day，I noticed the most beautiful Cadillac pull in the lot while waiting for my husband．A pretty female driver pulled into the spot beside our car．There was a striking resemblance to Liz Taylor．Her eyes were as blue as the sea，and teeth like an even row of pearls．A few minutes 1ater，a nice looking man entered her car，leaned over and kissed her and she drove away．

    Sitting there，I wanted to cry．How could some people have it all?

    Then it became almost routine to see her about once a week．She seemed friendly and always waved，flashing a big smile．My envy continued to exist long after she drove away．

    A couple of weeks later，sitting in our usual parking lot，I was holding a book，watching her over the top of it．Her husband came to the car，took her arm and helped her out of the car．I could see very well as she moved to get out．She unsteadily walked around to the passenger side very slowly， leaning on a walking cane．Sitting sideways．she lifted one leg with her hands and then the other．The beautiful lady had a prosthesis(假肢) on the left Ieg and a brace(支持物) on the right leg．

    I couldn’t watch them drive away as the tears were blinding me．Through my tears，I told my husband about the beautiful lady．He said he knew her husband and the story．The lady and her parents were in a car that got caught on the railroad tracks and was hit by a train．Both parents were killed and she was severely injured．She was only 12 years old．The railroad made a large settlement with her because the crossing had no signals．He explained her car was specially built for her needs as well as the home．

    I prayed for forgiveness all the way home．The lady I thought had everything I didn’t．I realized how lucky I was to have my parents，the ability to walk，run or dance through life and many wonderful things money can’t buy．I would not have traded places with the beautiful lady for anything．

    When you meet a person who seems to be much better off than you，don’t be fooled．

    1.Why did the author want to cry when noticing the beautiful lady?

    A．She thought of Liz Taylor．

    B．She had no such expensive car．

    C．She disliked her own eyes and teeth．

    D．She envied what the lady owned．

    2.Which of the following can best replace the word“settlement”in Paragraph 5？

    A．Replacement． B．Payment．

    C．Appointment． D．Encouragement．

    3.What made the author pray for forgiveness all the way home?

    A．Regretting her marriage．

    B．Admiring the lady’s appearance．

    C．Knowing the lady’s suffering．

    D．Leaving without waving to the lady．

    4.What does the author want to tell us?

    A．Seeing is believing．

    B．Looks can be deceiving．

    C．Happiness consists in beauty．

    D．Everything happens for the best．

    Having learned much about the War of Resistance against Japan, Mao Jingxin didn’t like the Japanese when she was a child. “I thought they were cruel and rude,” said the 18-year-old girl from Hebei Province.

    But she began to change her mind after she met some Japanese teenagers in a history museum six years ago. These fashionable high school students looked seriously at the history displays and talked to Mao in a friendly way. “I found that they are not bad as I thought,” she said.

    Like Mao, many Chinese teenagers’ are caught up in this confusion. A survey by 21st Century Teens shows about 51 per cent of Chinese teenagers say they dislike Japan. But most of them still want to have a Japanese friend. Also, Japan lies third on their list of Asian countries that they want to visit, following Singapore and South Korea.

    Teens did a survey just before the 60th anniversary of the victory day of the War of Resistance against Japan, which fell on September 3. The survey aimed to encourage understanding and communication between young Chinese and Japanese.

    Teens also wanted to understand Chinese teenagers’ attitudes towards Japan, and how much they actually know about the country.

    As Teens found, more than 60 per cent of Chinese teenagers learn about Japan through the media or books. Only 16 per cent have ever met a Japanese person.

    “Most of my friends hate Japan for what it did to China during World War II. But people should not live in hatred. I think the best way to figure it out is to have contact with the Japanese people myself,” Zhang Yuyuan, a Senior 2 girl, told us in the survey.

    “Japan has done wrong to Asian countries including China and it has caused pain to everyone,” said Hikaru, a 17-year-old girl in Kawasaki (川崎市). Having visited China four times and learned much, she understands the importance of communication between the two peoples. She plans to join in an exchange programme with Chinese youth. “Welcome to Japan, my Chinese friends!” She says it with a smile.

    1. Most teenagers hate Japanese because _______.

    A. the Japanese were cruel during the war

    B. the Japanese they meet are cruel

    C. the Japanese don’t want to communicate with Chinese people

    D. they look too fashionable

    2.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the survey?

    A. Many teenagers have met a Japanese.

    B. South Korea is the most popular Asian tourist places for Chinese teenagers.

    C. More than half of the teenagers in the survey don’t like the Japanese.

    D. Most Chinese teenagers learn about Japan through exchange activities.

    3. The passage is written to ______.

    A. give a brief introduction to the history of the War of Resistance against Japan

    B. report what Chinese teenagers think about Japan

    C. provide information about Japanese teenagers

    D. encourage Chinese teenagers to meet the Japanese
