“Hello?” she asked in a louder voice. “Hello, anybody!”

    There was still no answer. Dinah began to cry. She stood up and began walking forward slowly along the port side aisle (走廊). “Keep count!” part of her mind warned. “Keep count how many rows you pass, or you'll get lost and never find your way back again. “She stopped at the port side row seats just ahead of the row in which she and Aunt Vicky had been sitting and bent, arms outstretched, fingers splayed. She was hoping to touch the sleeping face of the man sitting here. She knew there was a man here, because Aunt Vicky had spoken to him only a minute or so before the plane took off. When he spoke back to her, his voice had come from the seat directly in front of Dinah's own. She knew that; marking the locations of voices was part of her life, an ordinary fact of existence like breathing. The sleeping man would jump up when her outstretched fingers touched him, but Dinah was beyond caring.

    Except the seat was empty.

    Completely empty.

    Dinah straightened again, her check wet, her head pounding with fright. They couldn't have been to the washroom together, could they? Of course not. Perhaps there were two washrooms. In a plane this big there must be two washrooms. Except that didn't matter, either.

    Aunt Vicky wouldn't have left her purse, no matter what, Dinah was sure of that.

    She began to walk slowly forward, stopping at each row of seats, reaching into the closest to her, aiming to find someone. Nobody; the other, no. The other rows, no, no, still no! Every seat she investigated was empty.

    This can't be! This just can't be! She thought wildly. They were all around us when we got on! I heard them! I felt them! ________. Where have they all gone?

    At some point, while she slept, her aunt and everyone else on Flight 29 had disappeared!

1．It is inferred from the passage that ________.

    A. no one in the plane answered Dinah because they were sleeping

    B. all the people, including Aunt Vicky had got off the plane while Dinah was sleeping

    C. all the people, including Aunt Vicky had somehow disappeared without Dinah's acknowledge

    D. Aunt Vicky had really gone to the washroom with the man

2．There is one sentence missing in the passage. Which of the following do you think is the best to fill in the blank?

    A. I saw them!

    B. I smelled them!

    C. I touched them!

    D. I tasted them!

3．From the underlined sentence in the passage, we know the reason why Dinah wanted to touch the face of the sleeping man is that ________.

    A. she loved to touch people's face

    B. she had to because she was blind

    C. she didn't want to open her eyes

D. she was too frightened to open her eyes

When I wandered along a path through woods in the countryside, a small water pool came into my sight ahead. I changed my direction and took the part of the path that wasn’t covered by water or mud to go around it. When I reached the pool, I was suddenly attacked by something several times! It was from somewhere totally unexpected. I was surprised as well as unhurt. The attacker stopped attacking me when I backed up a foot. I couldn’t help laughing when I looked down and found I was being attacked by a butterfly!  

Curiously, I took a step forward to see clearly. My attacker dashed towards me again. He rushed towards me at full speed, attempting to hurt me but failed. For a second time, I took a stop backwards when the attacker paused. I didn’t know what to do. After all, it’s just uncommon that one is attacked by a butterfly. I stepped back to look the situation over. My attacker moved back to land on the ground. That’s when I discovered why the attacker was kept charging me. He had a mate and she was dying.

Sitting tenderly close beside her, he opened and closed his wings as if to fan her. I could do nothing but admire the love and courage of that butterfly in his concern for his mate. He had attacked me for his mate’s sake, even though she was clearly dying and I was much larger than he. He did so just to give her those extra few precious moments of life. I shouldn’t have been careless enough to step on her. His courage in attacking something thousands of times larger and heavier than himself just for his mates’ safety seemed admirable. I was moved and rewarded him by walking on the more difficult side of the pool, leaving them undisturbed. He had truly earned those moments to be with his dear mate.

Since then, I’ve always tried to remember the courage of that butterfly whenever I see huge barriers facing me.

1.Why did the writer change his direction while walking down a path?

A．To get close to a butterfly.

B．To avoid getting his shoes dirty.

C．To escape a sudden attack.

D．To look over the bad situation.

2.What made the man feel funny?

A．Making the attacker pause.

B．Being stepped on by his mate.

C．Being attacked by a butterfly.

D．Discovering the energetic butterfly.

3.From this experience the man learned _____.

A．people should protect butterflies

B．how he should deal with attacks

C．people should show sympathy to the weak

D．what he should do when faced with trouble

4.Which of the following word can best describe the butterfly?

A．Brave

B．Amusing.

C．Careless.

D．Strong.

 

I was eleven years old, waiting for my exam at Saraswati Vidyalaya, my school in Nagpur. “No. 12, please come forward.” Kirti, a very fat girl from my class, stepped ahead. I heard my classmates laughing and so I tried to stop them with my eyes. But my good intentions were mistaken. The next morning, my teacher, Mrs. Kamble, told me, “Ashwini, I’ve received a complaint about you.” I was shocked. The girl I was protecting thought I’d been laughing at her.
I tried to explain but the teacher refused to hear me out. She punished me by making me stand by the door. I knew I was right. Such punishment to a class topper was simply unheard of. But, slowly, my pride disappeared. Instead of being angry, I understood the other students who have been punished at times. For the first time, I felt humbled (谦逊的).
Three years later, I was in the math class. Mr. Prabhuraman, wrote an equation (方程式) — one he’d taught us the day before — on the blackboard. “Anyone who doesn’t know how to solve this,” he said, “please leave the class at once.” I knew I could solve only the first two steps. But my pride made me stay there. Unfortunately, the one who was asked to solve it was me. I just stood there, chalk in hand, trying not to look foolish. I prepared myself for a good talking-to (斥责), but Mr. Prabhuraman told me kindly, “Go back to your seat.”
Today, two decades later, those incidents have made me think. One teacher punished me for something I didn’t do; the other forgave me for something I did wrong. Both experiences had an effect on me. They remind me that no matter what you accomplish (完成), you must always be humble.
【小题1】When the very fat girl appeared, Ashwini _____.

A．took no notice of her	B．laughed at her
C．said hello to her	D．tried to stop others making fun of her

【小题2】After receiving a complaint, Mrs. Kamble _____.

A．said nothing about it	B．was disappointed
C．felt very angry	D．tried to find out the truth

【小题3】Why did Ashwini refuse to leave the class?

A．He felt it would make him lose face.

B．He could work out the equation.

C．His teacher believed in his ability.

D．His teacher never asked him any questions.

【小题4】The text is a story about _____.

A．how to communicate with others

B．how to get along with teachers

C．the ways to protect others

D．the danger of pride
