阅读下列四篇短文,从每小题后所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。

Previously, I heard a story about a mother who had two daughters. She loved them very much, but two girls would fight with each other from their earliest years. As they grew older, they became total strangers. They had no contact with each other when they were adults.

This caused the mother great pain. Then, later, she had an idea. She decided to write a letter to them. In this letter, she told them how much she loved them, and how she wanted them to love each other in this way. She also gave them news of herself, and some guidance on how they might live happier lives.

When the letter was ready, she wrote out one copy for each daughter, but these copies were special. Each copy contained only every second sentence of the original letter. The copy for one daughter had only the even(偶数的) sentences, and the other daughter’s copy contained only the odd sentences. Neither copy made sense on its own. Neither contained the fullness of the mother’s message.

When the two daughters received their letters, they were puzzled. If they really wanted to know what the letters said, they would have to put the two letters together, and read them as one. That meant they must approach one another again in mutual(彼此的) love and respect.

For a long time, the mother waited in vain. Both daughters tried to understand the half-letter, but they each blamed the other for not helping them. Each daughter thought she knew her mother better.

Then one day, when the mother had almost given up hope, there was a knock at the door. There they stood, together. “We’ve come home,” they said at the same time. “We’ve finally put our letters together, and we’ve come to say how much we love you, Mum.” Then she hugged them both, tears of joy streaming down her cheeks, and welcomed them back home.

1. Why did the mother give her daughters incomplete letters?

A. She wanted to tell them her good news and bad news.

B. She hoped they would ask her for more information.

C. She hoped they would approach each other and make up.

D. She thought she could change their attitude towards her.

2. It can be inferred from the passage that _____.

A. love can neither be bought nor sold

B. faults are thick when love is thin

C. without respect, love can’t go far

D. love can help enemies become friends

3.What is the best title for this passage?

A. An Unusual Letter

B. A Mother’s Endless Love

C. Special Daughters

D. Deep Love from Daughters

Papa’s jaw dropped when Mama told him that Sister had cheated on her final exams—not to succeed but to fail. “It’s unbelievable!” he said. “Sister has always been so proud of her good grades!”

“Yes, she has,” said Mama. “But it’s not unbelievable. It just shows how badly she wanted off the swimming team.”

“She never said anything about that to me.” said Papa.

“Of course she didn’t,” said Mama. “She was afraid you’d blow your top. You already had her getting a swimming scholarship to college and winning gold medals at the Olympics. Can you imagine how much pressure she must have felt?”

“Oh, my gosh!” Papa said, “I’ve been so stupid! I just thought she’d want to be a champion swimmer because she’s so good at it.”

“It’s like anything else, dear,” said Mama, “No matter how good at it you are, if it stops being fun, you won’t want to do it anymore.”

“She must be really mad at me,” he mumbled (嘟哝). “Maybe I should say sorry to her.”

Sister’s footsteps could be heard on the stairs. She came into the kitchen and looked hopefully up at her parents.

“Honey,” said Mama with a smile, “Your papa and I have decided that there’s no reason for you to be on the swimming team if you don’t want to.”

Sister’s face lit up like a Christmas tree. She ran to Papa and jumped into his arms, giving him a big hug. “I’m going to play cards with Lizzy!” she said. “See you later!”

From the kitchen window, Mama and Papa watched their daughter run down the sunny road toward Lizzy’s house.

“It’s good to see her happy again,” said Mama.

“Well, it’s not too late, anyway.” Papa said.

1.Mama insisted that the child should do ________.

A. what she felt easy to B. what she was willing to

C. what she felt right to D. what she was able to

2.The underlined expression “blow your top” probably means “________” in the text.

A. change your opinion B. become very excited

C. get very angry D. fall down with fear

3. Which of the following words best describes Papa?

A. Foolish. B. Patient.

C. Stubborn. D. Considerate.

4. What might be the best title for the text?

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Why Is Exercise Cool?

1.Exercise Strengthens Muscles

Did you ever do a push-up or swing across the monkey bars at the Playground. 1. By using your muscles to do powerful things, you can make them stronger.For older teens and adults, this kind of workout can make muscles bigger, too.

2. 2.

Can you touch your toes easily without yelling ouch? Most kids are pretty flexible, which means that they can bend and stretch their bodies without much trouble. Being flexible is having full range of motion, which means you can move your arms and legs freely without feeling tightness or pain.

3.Exercise Keeps the Balance

3.Your body needs a certain amount of calories every day just to function, breathe, walk around, and do all the basic stuff. 4.If you're not very active, your body won't need as many calories.

Whatever your calorie need , if you eat enough to meet that need, your body weight will stay about the same. If you eat more calories than your body needs, it may be stored as extra fat.

4.Exercise Makes You Feel Good

It feels good to have a strong, flexible body that can do all the activities you enjoy—like running, jumping, and playing with your friends. It's also fun to be good at something, like scoring a basket, hitting a home run, or perfecting a dive.

But you may not know that exercising can actually put you in a better mood. 5.It's just another reason why exercise is cool!

A.So you want to do some aerobic(有氧的)exercise right now?

B.Food gives your body fuel in the form of calories, which are a kind of energy.

C.When you exercise, your brain releases a chemical, which may make you feel happier.

D.Those are exercises that can build strength.

E.Exercise Makes You Flexible

F.Exercise Makes Your Heart Happy
