    B

    On the last day of his life, my dog Otto spent that morning of spring napping in the garden. This was always one of his favorite things to do, even before the days when he was too old and too weak to get out of a car by himself.

    I probably would have started crying over Otto right then, if my two other little dogs hadn't suddenly raced past. Larry, who was a puppy, got knocked into Otto, then licked Otto's ear, and that got Otto excited, and Otto barked and tried to stand up again, but it was hard for him.

    Soon it was time for me to drive to see Steve, our vet.

    When Steve gave Otto the first shot, it made him woozy (眩晕的). Otto wandered over to where Steve and I were sitting and settled down between us. He has always liked to touch everyone in his pack, if possible, while he sleeps.

    After Steve gave him the last shot and Otto stopped breathing, he didn't look like Otto anymore. He looked like an old gray-brown piece of beat-up carpet, and I suddenly realized what bad shape he'd been in for a long, long time. I wondered if he'd been in much more pain than I knew. Wondering made me feel even worse.

    The week after Otto died was not good. Every morning when I walked Larry and Sticky in the neighborhood, somebody would come up and say they had heard about Otto and they were sorry. They were all Otto's friends and some of them cried. Others, like Debbie who lives on my street, reminded me about how, even at the end. Otto would stand between her twins' stroller (婴儿车) and the street when the garbage truck went by. "Like it was his job to protect them," she marveled.

    Otto has left us, but his memory lives on.

    60. How did the author feel when Otto was napping in the garden?

    A. She felt like crying.                       B. She thought life was beautiful.           C. She found spring was wonderful.                D. She was relieved.

    61. According to the passage, how did the dog die?

    A. He had an accident on the street.            B. He died naturally.                  C. He was made to die by a vet.                    D. He starved.

    62. What can we know about Otto?

    A. He was already too old to bark.                            B. He liked people to keep him company.     C. He died a very painful death.                            D. He was protected by the neighbours.

    63. We can see from the passage that Sticky is a ______.

    A. cat                  B. dog              C. child             D. Neighbour

    My grandparents were married for over half a century, and played their own special game the time they had met each other. The goal of their game was to write the word “shmily” in a surprise place for the other to find. They took turns leaving “shmily” around the house, and as soon as one of them discovered it, it was their turn to hide it once more. They dragged “shmily” with their fingers through the sugar and flour containers to await whoever was preparing the next meal. “Shmily” was written in the steam left on the mirror after a hot shower, where it would reappear bath after bath. There was no end to the places where “shmily” would pop up. Little notes with “shmily” were found on car seats, or taped to steering wheels. The notes were put inside shoes and left under pillows. “Shmily” was written in the dust upon the mantel（壁炉架）and traced in the ashes of the fireplace. This mysterious word was as much a part of my grandparents’ house as the furniture.

    It took me a long time before I was able to fully appreciate my grandparents’ game. Skepticism has kept me from believing in true love --- one that is pure and enduring (持久的). However, I never doubted my grandparents’ relationship. It was based on passionate（热情的）affection which not everyone is lucky enough to experience.

    But there was a dark cloud in my grandparents’ life: my grandmother had breast cancer. The disease had first appeared ten years earlier. As always, Grandpa was with her every step of the way. He comforted her in their yellow room, painted that way so that she could always be surrounded by sunshine, even when she was too sick to go outside. But my grandmother grew steadily weaker until, finally, she could not leave the house anymore. Then one day, what we all dreaded finally happened. Grandma was gone.

    “Shmily.” It was written in yellow on the pink ribbons of my grandmother’s funeral bouquet (花束). As the crowd thinned and the last mourners turned to leave, Grandpa stepped up to my grandmother’s coffin and, taking a shaky breath, he began to sing to her. Through his tears and grief, the song came: S-h-m-i-l-y: See How Much I Love You.

    1.According to the passage, where may the word “shmily” be found?

    a.in the flour containers

    b.on the mirror

    c.on the sheet of toilet paper

    d.on pillows

    e.on the furniture

    A.a, b     B. b, c     C. a, d     D. b, e

    2.The first paragraph is mainly about ________.

    A.what the word “shmily” means

    B.how the author’s grandparents played their special game

    C.how the author appreciated her grandparents’ game

    D.how the author’s grandparents cared for each other

    3.The underlined phrase “pop up” in Paragraph 1 means ________.

    A.appear    B. change    C. survive    D. work

    4.According to the passage, the author _________.

    A.thought the game was meaningless

    B.believes everyone can experience true love

    C.doubted the existence of true love at first

    D.sometimes left “shmily” around the house

    5.Grandpa tried to make Grandma comfortable by _______.

    A.singing songs to her every day

    B.painting the room yellow

    C.encouraging her to go outside

    D.helping her take a hot shower every day
