阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。

  Did you ever look up at the moon and think you saw a man's face there?When the moon is round and full,the shadows of the moon mountains and the lines of the moon valleys sometimes seem to show a giant nose and mouth and eyes.At least,some people think so.

  If there were a man on the moon-instead of mountains and valleys that just look like the face of a man-what would he be like?

  He would not be like anyone you know.He would not be like anyone anybody knows.

  If the man on the moon were bothered by too much heat or cold the way Earth people are,he could not stay on the moon.

  The moon becomes very,very hot.It becomes as hot as boiling water.And the moon becomes very,very cold.It becomes colder than ice.

  Whatever part of the moon the sun shines on is hot and bright.The rest of the moon is cold and dark.

  If the man on the moon had to breathe to stay alive,he couldn't live on the moon because there's no air there.(He'd have to carry an oxygen tank,as astronauts do.)There's no food on the moon,either.Nothing grows-not even weeds.

  If the man on the moon liked to climb mountains,he would be very happy.There are many high places there,such as the raised land around the holes,or craters,of the moon.Some of these rims are as tall as Earth's highest mountains.

  But if the man on the moon liked to swim,he would be unhappy.There is no water on the moon-just dust and rock.

  When you think of what it's like on the moon,you may wonder why it interests our scientists.One reason is that the moon is Earth's nearest neighbor-it is the easiest place in space to get to.

  Going back and forth between the moon and Earth,astronauts will get a lot of practice in space travel.Things learned on moon trips will be of great help to astronauts who later take long,long trips to some of the planets.

  Scientists are also interested in the moon because it has no air.The air that surrounds Earth cuts down the view of the scientists who look at the stars through telescopes.A telescope on the moon would give them a clearer,closer view of the stars.

                                   A

Scars of Love

Some years ago on a hot summer day in south Florida a little boy decided to go for a swim in the old swimming hole behind his house. In a hurry to dive into the cool water, he ran out of the back door, leaving behind shoes, socks and shirt as he went.

He flew into the water, not realizing that as he swam toward the middle of the lake, an alligator(短吻鳄) was getting close. The mother in the house was looking out of the window and saw the two as they got closer and closer together. In great fear, she ran toward the water, yelling to her son as loudly as she could. Hearing her voice, the little boy became alarmed and made a U-turn to swim to his mother. It was too late. Just as he reached her, the alligator reached him. From the dock, the mother grabbed her little boy by the arms just as the alligator snatched (抓住) his legs. That began an unbelievable tug-of-war (拔河比赛) between the two. The alligator was much stronger than the mother, but the mother was much too passionate to let go. A farmer happened to drive by, heard their screams, rushed from his truck, took aim and shot the alligator.

Remarkably, after weeks and weeks in the hospital, the little boy survived. His legs were extremely scarred (留下伤疤) by the terrible attack of the animal. And on his arms, were deep scratches where his mother’s fingernails dug into his flesh in her effort to hang on to the son she loved.

The newspaper reporter, who interviewed the boy after the trauma (外伤), asked if he would show him his scars. The boy lifted the pant legs. And then, with obvious pride, he said to the reporter, “Look at my arms. I have great scars on my arms, too. I have them because my mum wouldn’t let go.”

You and I can identify with (认同) that little boy. We have scars, too. Not from an alligator, but the scars of a painful past. Some of those scars are unsightly and have caused us deep regret. But, some wounds, my friends, are because we have refused to let go.

56. The underlined part “the two” in the second paragraph refers to ______.

   A. the alligator and the mother         B. the mother and the son

C. the driver and the alligator          D. the son and the alligator

57. From the passage we can infer ________.

   A. The mother was unwilling to let the alligator go

   B. The mother was actually stronger than the alligator

   C. The son was proud of his scars on his arms

   D. The son was ashamed of his scars on his legs

58. According to the last paragraph, what is the writer’s real meaning?

   A. To forget the past is to betray.       B. We should forget the scars.

   C. Wounds are different from scars.     D. We should learn to let go sometimes.
