One day he went on a long trip alone. Before he left home, his wife said, “now you have all these  things . They are what you need for your trip. Take care of your things during the trip.” He went to the station, bought a ticket and go on the train with it. About half an hour later, the conductor began to see the tickets. He came to the old man and said. “Will you please show me your ticket ?” the old man looked for his ticket in all his pockets, but he could not find it. He was very worried. “I can’t find my ticket, I really bought a ticket before I got on the train” said the old man.
“I believe you bought a ticket. All right  , you don’t have buy another one” said the conductor kindly.  “But how can I know where I’m going? I can’t remember my station!” the old man said sadly
小题1:The old man in the story was very ______.
A.kindB.poorC.forgetfulD.sad
小题2:The old man bought the ticket ______ he got on the train.
A.afterB.beforeC.untilD.when.
小题3:The conductor _____ the old man.
A.didn’t believeB. laughed atC. believedD.felt sorry for
小题4:The old man was sad because____
A.he had to buy another ticket
B.he lost all the things his wife gave him
C.he did not know where he was
D.he did not know where he should get off.

小题1:C
小题2:B
小题3:C
小题4:D

试题分析:
小题1:根据本文的第二句He always forgot a lot of things.,意思为他总是忘记许多事情,所以说文中的老人应该是一个健忘的人,forgetful表示此意,故本题选C。
小题2:根据第二段第三行这一句He went to the station, bought a ticket and go on the train with it. 可知老人是买了火车票之后才上了火车,也就是说老人在上了火车之前买了火车票,before表示在……之前的意思,故本题选B。
小题3:老人在火车上找不到火车票,根据本文倒数第二句“I believe you bought a ticket. All right  , you don’t have buy another one” said the conductor kindly. 可知售票员是相信老人买了票,故本题选C。
小题4:根据本文的最后一句可知老人难过的愿因是老人不知道去哪里,是想不起来火车站的名称,也就是说他不知道到哪里下火车站,故本题更符合文章含义的是D项,故选D。
点评:本文主要介绍了一个非常健忘的老人,买了火车票,上了火车,却不知道火车票到哪里去了,最后找不到火车票,也不知道自己应该在哪里下车。阅读本文应根据上下文仔细推敲老人忘记火车票的原因以及最后难过的真正原因。尤其注意的是老人最终难过的原因不是没有火车票,而是不知道自己在哪里下车。

Life is like the four seasons. Now I am very old, but when I was young, it was the spring of my life. I was born, I played a lot, and then I started school. I learned many new things. Like a flower, I grew bigger every day. There were happy days and sorrowful days: some days the sun shone, and some days it didn’t.
In my twenties, I had a good job. I was strong and happy. Then I married (结婚) and had a child. In those days, I didn’t have much time to think. Every day I was busy and worked very hard. And so, I started to get some white hairs. The summer of my life passed quickly.

I had more time. I understood this was my autumn, a beautiful time when the trees change color and give us nice fruits.

Think of life as a game in which you are playing with five balls in the air. You name them work, family, health, friends and spirit (精神) and you keep all of them in the air. You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will jump back.
But the other four balls, family, health, friends and spirit are made of glass. If you drop one of these, they will be broken. They will never be the same. You must understand that and try to have the balance in your life. How?
Don’t look down on your worth by comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different and each of us is special.
Don’t let other people set goals for you. Only you know what is best for yourself.
Don’t give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.
Don’t be afraid of difficulties. We learn how to be brave by taking chances.
Don’t shut love out of your life by saying it’s impossible. The quickest way to receive love is to give it; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly (紧紧地); the best way to keep love is to give it wings.
Don’t run through life so fast that you forget not only where you’ve been, but also where you are going.
Don’t be afraid to learn. Knowledge is a treasure (珍宝) you can always carry easily.
Don’t use time or words carelessly. You can’t get them back. Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery (秘密), and today is a gift; that’s why we call it “the present”. Life is not a competition, but a trip, step by step.
小题1:The passage tells us not to _________ because everyone is special.
A.be afraid of difficulties
B.be afraid to learn
C.run through life so fast
D.compare yourself with others to look down on your worth
小题2:The sentence “Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.” means that_____.
A.Nothing is possible
B.If we don’t give up, there is always hope
C.You should learn to give up
D.Although you try, nothing will change.
小题3:Why can’t we use time carelessly? ___________
A.Because time is too expensive
B.Because time never returns.
C.Because we are too poor
D.Because times will get back.
小题4:According to the passage, which is the best title? ___________
A.Nothing is impossible.
B.Glass balls are easy to be broken.
C.Things you can’t do.
D.Treat your life in a right way.
