There was once a captain who loved money so much that he cheated his sailors at the end of every voyage and took their wages.
On the last day of one voyage, the ship was in a small port. It was winter time, and the sea was very cold, so the captain said to his sailors, "If one of you stays in the water during the whole night, I will give him my ship. But if he comes out before the sun appears, I shall get his wages."
The sailors had heard about the captain's cheating, so they didn't trust him. But then one of them, who thought that he was cleverer than the captain, said that he would do it. He got into the water, and, though it was very cold, he stayed in it. When it was nearly morning, some fishermen lit a fire on the shore about half a mile away.
"You are cheating," the captain said to the sailor. "The fire's warming you."
"But it's half a mile away!" said the sailor.
"A fire's fire," answered the captain. "I have won."
The sailor came out of the water, and said, "Perhaps you think that you are clever because you have won my wages, but you can't cook a chicken."
"I can," answered the captain.
"If you cook this chicken," said the sailor, "I shall work for you without wages for seven years, but if you can't, you will give me your ship."
The captain agreed, took the chicken and said, "Where's the fire?"
"There it is," answered the sailor. "On the shore."
"But it's half a mile away," said the captain angrily.
" A fire's fire, you said," answered the sailor. "If it is enough to warm me in the water, it is enough to cook your chicken."
1. The captain got the sailors' wages ________.
A. to buy a chicken for himself
B. and said he would return the money soon
C. and kept the money for future
D. by cheating him
2.The captain insisted that the fire was warming the sailor because he ________.
A. wanted to keep his promise
B. didn't believe the sailor's success
C. didn't want to lose the bet
D. wanted to show his cleverness
3. Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?
A. In order to help the sailor in the water, the fishermen made a fire.
B. The sailors didn't trust the captain.
C. The captain failed to cheat the sailor this time.
D. The sailor didn't get out of the water before the sun appeared.

On a rainy night three years ago my dear mom went to accompany her Lord. She did it her way.
I got the call at work, and l headed home quickly. Mom and Dad lived on a small farm that they had owned since I was seven. I hated going there every weekend. There was nothing for a young girl to do but watch the one station on the old TV set, if the weather allowed reception.
My mom, on the other hand, loved the peace and quiet of the land. The place was rural, with no indoor plumbing or heat. We had a big wood stove in the kitchen that did its best to heat the little farmhouse, but it always seemed cold and too quiet to me.
In the evenings, my mom and I would sit for hours singing in the little kitchen. I sang the melody and Mom harmonized. Her favorite song was “Moon River” and we sang it over and over. Mom told me stories about how when I was a little girl I could sing before I could talk.
As time passed, I had my own children and went to visit them every week or two. The kids loved the farm and the tractor rides with my dad. Me, well, I still hated the silence of the farm. While my mom loved to sit at her kitchen table and look out at her garden and flowers and retell all the old stories, I missed the hustle and bustle of my life at home. But I sat there listening quietly as she reminisced.
Now, I sat back in the silence and the silence was deathly so I finally leaned over to turn on an old radio. Music always comforted me. My heart skipped a beat. “Moon River” was playing on the radio. I sat there wordless, with a tear running down my cheek, as I listened to every familiar note.
1. From the first paragraph, we know that the writer’s mother ________.
A. passed away three years ago
B. left the small farm with Lord
C. left for Lord to live her own way
D. preferred to be with Lord
2. The underlined word “reminisced” in the last but one paragraph probably means ________.
A. recalled B. comforted
C. shouted D. sighed
3.The writer didn’t like staying on the farm for the following reasons EXCEPT that ________.
A. it was too cold and quiet
B. she could only sing one song on the small farm
C. there was nothing more that could make her excited
D. the place was rural, with no indoor plumbing or heat
4.Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?
A. Cherish Life B. My Happy Childhood
C. Our Small Farmhouse D. Mom’s Music
