It was 8:30am and the doorbell rang. I answered the door and there was Mr. Jones, who was from a bike-racing company. Mr. Jones said, “Congratulations! You are one of our finalists(决赛选手) for this year’s US Bike Tour Challenge. If you can ride your bike from here to Miami, Florida and finish it first, you will win $50,000. You can only take ten stops on this race and this doesn’t include overnight stays at hotels. Will you accept this challenge, Mr. Wozniak?” I agreed, and so did my parents.
Mr. Jones explained to me the rules. The race began the next day. The first day was very smooth for me. But unluckily the next four days, I bumped into some rain, which didn’t stop until I reached North Carolina. And I had used six stops because of the bad weather. It would take five days to get to Florida, so I would travel one day without making a stop. And I did it. On the sixth day, I succeeded in riding all the way to Savannah Georgia without a stop. Four days later, I arrived in downtown Miami and I was told that I was in the 4th place. So I thought to myself I could win. At 6:15pm, I found myself head to head with another racer. We both switched gears to head for the finish line.
When the officials announced, “The Ohio competitor, Evan Wozniak, is the winner!”
I was so excited that I fell off my bike. Happily, I got the $50,000 for winning this race. And I did it in ten days.
1.Evan Wozniak is a competitor from ______.
A. Ohio B. North Carolina
C. Savannah Georgia D. Florida
2.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text?
A. Mr. Jones was one of the finalists for this year’s US Bike Tour Challenge.
B. Evan Wozniak gave up the challenge for his parents’ disagreement.
C. Riding from Ohio to Florida needs at least 5 days.
D. Evan Wozniak successfully finished his race despite much trouble.
3.The correct route of this year’s US Bike Tour Challenge is ______.
A. Ohio→Savannah Georgia→North Carolina→Miami, Florida
B. Miami, Florida→North Carolina→Savannah Georgia→Ohio

Does every important present come in a big package? As the holiday season approaches, most of us are looking for the perfect gift, ready to give whatever we can afford, hoping to please the ones we love.
This morning, my son responded to my e?mail, in which I had mentioned his Christmas list. To my surprise, he didn't tell me what was on his list—rather he opted to tell what was not, such as more sweaters or button?downs.
“I have 3x more of shirts than I could ever possibly wear，” he wrote.
I laughed, not only at my silly assumption but also at the frank and sensitive way he'd told me I'd been missing the boat. In my attempts to be generous, I'd merely been repetitive.
It hurts to admit this naturally, but the truth is that if I'd been visiting him more frequently, I'd know he has too many shirts in his drawers with the tags still on them. But because he is living so far away, I just don't know what exactly he wears on a daily basis.
Perhaps if I paid him and his wife a visit, we could share takeout in their apartment. Laugh together. Talk about something. It would be a big gift in a small package, requiring only a plane flight and some time.
Of course, this present could come at any time of the year. I am thinking about the idea now because it's December, when thinking about perfect presents for those we love occupies our thoughts quite a bit. We are troubling ourselves with the idea of perfection, sometimes losing sight of the point of it all, which is simply to make one another happy.
So maybe under our Christmas tree this year there will be a package wrapped in red and green with my son's name on it. Inside will be a plane ticket to JFK in my name. Wouldn't that be perfect?
1.What did the author realize after reading her son's e?mail?
A. Her son didn't think she
was generous.
B. She ignored her son's inner feelings.
C. She missed out her son's development.
D. She didn't buy her son proper presents.
2.Which of following can best replace the underlined word “opted” in Paragraph 2?
A. Chose. B. Promised.
C. Refused. D. Pretended.
3.What might be the best title for the passage?
A. Small presents also count B. Presents—symbol of love
C. Big presents in little packages D. Presents—a bond between people
