One day, when I arrived at school, an ice cream truck was parked in the schoolyard. Ice cream men usually drove their trucks to primary schools. I had never thought one ice cream truck would come to bring ice cream to us older kids. When I went up to the truck, I was quite surprised to hear the man call out, "Free ice cream!" To make sure of his words, I asked, "I'm sorry, what did you say?" "Free ice cream. Choose whichever you like." he said, smiling.

After I was certain that the man was just giving away the ice cream, I talked with him for a long time. He told me that his dream had always been to travel around giving away ice cream, and that's what he was now doing. With his mother's support, he kept doing what he loved even during hard times. Now, however, some large companies are helping him his plan.

The man said he wanted to encourage people to do exactly what their heart told them to do with their lives. I kept asking him, "So your dream was just to drive around and give away ice cream? It seems like a very unusual goal." "Yes, just meeting people and making them smile," he replied. At that point he handed me my ice cream. I thanked him, but what I got from him was much more than just an ice cream. It can't easily be explained in words. I believe what he is doing is exactly what a great person does all the time: small acts of big love.

1.From the story we know that the writer was most probably_______ at that time.

A. a primary school teacher B. a primary school student

C. a middle school student D. a middle school teacher

2.Why did the writer ask the ice cream man what he had said again?

A. Because he was not sure whether what he had heard was true.

B. Because the ice cream truck had never been here before.

C. Because the ice cream man said in a low voice and he couldn't hear.

D. Because he didn't pay attention to the ice cream truck.

3.With his mother's and some large companies' support, _______.

A. the man became rich

B. the man could produce ice cream

C. the man could travel

D. the man's dream came true

An eight-year-old child heard her parents talking about her little brother. All she knew was that he was very sick and they had no money. Only a very expensive operation could save him now and there was no one to lend them the money.

When she heard her daddy say to her tearful mother, “Only a miracle (奇迹) can save him now.” The little girl went to her bedroom and pulled her money from its hiding place and counted it carefully.

She hurried to a drugstore (药店) with the money in her hand.

“And what do you want?” asked the salesman. “It’s for my little brother.” the girl answered.

“He’s really, really sick and wants to buy a miracle.” “Pardon?” said the salesman.

“My brother Andrew has something bad growing inside his head and my daddy says only a miracle can save him. So how much does a miracle cost?” “We don’t sell a miracle here, child. I’m sorry,” the salesman said with a smile.

“Listen, if it isn’t enough, I can try and get some more. Just tell me how much it costs.”

A well-dressed man heard it and asked, “What kind of miracle does your brother need?” I don’t know,” she answered with her eyes full of tears. He’s really sick and Mum says he needs an operation. But my daddy can’t pay for it, so I have brought all my money.”

“How much do you have?” asked the man. “$1.11, but I can try and get some more,” she answered.

“Well, what a luck,” smiled the man, “$1.11, the price of a miracle for little brother.”

He took up the girl’s hand and said, “Take me to where you live. I want to see your brother and meet your parents. Let’s see if I have the kind of miracle you need.”

That well-dressed man was Dr Carlton Armstrong, a famous doctor. The operation was successful and it wasn’t long before Andrew was home again.

Healthy eating doesn’t just mean what you eat, but how you eat. Here is some advice(建议) on healthy eating:

Eat with others. It can help you to see others’ healthy eating habits. If you usually eat with your parents, you will find that the food you eat is more delicious.

Listen to your body: Ask yourself if you are really hungry. Have a glass of water to see if you are thirsty- sometimes you are just thirsty: you need no food. Stop eating before you feel full.

Eat breakfast: Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. After you don’t eat for the past ten hours, your body needs food to get going. You will be smarter after eating breakfast.

Eat healthy snacks like fruits or cheese: We need snacks sometimes. In fact, it’s a good idea to eat healthy snacks between your three meals. This doesn’t mean that you can eat a bag of chips instead of a meal.

Don’t eat dinner late: With our busy life, we always put off eating dinner until the last moment. Try to eat dinner at least 3 hours before you go to bed. This will give your body a chance to digest (消化) most of the food before you rest for the next 8—10 hours.

1. What’s the main idea of the text?

A. What to eat. B. Where to eat.

C. How to eat. D. When to eat.

2.How many pieces of advice does the writer give us on healthy eating?

A. 4 B. 5 C. 6 D. 7

3. Which one is the most important in a day according to the writer?

A. Dinner. B. Lunch. C. Breakfast. D. Snacks.

4.What is the writer’s advice on healthy snacks?

A. Not eating snacks at all.

B. Eating enough every day.

C. Eating as many as you can.

D. Eating some when necessary.
