    “ Mom,” she shouted, “ I think I will mow the lawn.” Her mom ran into the yard and said, “ Oh no, you don’t. You’re too young to mow the lawn.”
    I’m fourteen years old and know how to do it,” Jessie said, “ Besides, it would help Dad out, and he won’t have to worry about it over the weekend.”
    Mom thought for a while and then decided to let Jessie give it a try. After all, she was home and would keep an eye on her. Jessie already knew how to start the lawn mower from watching her dad. Jessie checked the gas(汽油) to make sure it was full, and put on her gardening gloves to protect her hands. Mom watched from the kitchen window. Jessie really does know how to mow the lawn. She was very careful around the flowers and trees. When she finished, she felt so good,but she was so hot. Mom brought her some ice tea and said, “You sure did a great job.

    Choose the best answer（根据短文内容，选择最恰当的答案): ( 12分)
    He was just an ordinary postman. Day after day, he shuttled(穿梭) back and forth across the village. For him, life
    was without waves.

    　　One day, he was delivering mail as usual. When he looked up in the sky, he suddenly lost his balance. It was a little stone that tripped him up（绊倒）. He observed the stone that had embarrassed（难堪） him, finding it strange but beautiful. In his eyes, this stone was like a lost jewel（宝石） covered with dust. The postman then placed the stone in his bag carefully. Because of this stone’s arrival, his day was lightened. He suddenly had a bold thought—I can build a castle with such beautiful stones. How magnificent it will be!
    　　His ordinary life started to be different since then. He still delivered mail, but he collected every stone he could find along the way. All those dusty stones, in his eyes, glittered like diamonds.
    　　Gradually, his small bag couldn’t hold his stones anymore and he needed to use a wheelbarrow to carry them. People didn’t understand what happened when they saw the postman delivering letters with a wheelbarrow full of stones.
    　　After collecting enough stones, he started to build his castle. During the daytime, he passed along the dreams of others; and during the nighttime, he built his own dream. No one was willing to join in. But the postman was unmoved, still happily building his castle. Because he knew, the dream and the castle only belonged to him.
    　　After 20 years of working day and night, the postman’s dream castle was finally completed. It was a magnificent castle just as he had imagined. It was a miracle arising from the ordinary.
    　　This is a real story. The postman’s name is Xue Waller. The stone castle has become a famous tourist attraction in France, which is called“ ideal palace of Ferdinand Cheval.”At the entrance of the stone castle, there is a sentence—“I want to know how far a dream stone can go.”

    On 22nd January, 2007, Dave Cornthwaite from the UK became the first person to skateboard across Australia. He made a new world record, by skating a total of 5,823 kilometers. Jack Smith, the previous (前任的) champion, had skated a total of 4,830 kilometers across the US in 2003. Dave’s journey started in Perth and ended in Brisbane traveling about 60 kilometers a day.

He had a serious accident in Adelaide when he jumped on a piece of metal that cut through his foot.

The first one to speak looked a little      . “My dear friends and judges,” he said loudly, “this is an unfair         ! I have been given the paper,” he continued, “to speak on the topic with just a few minutes’ preparation,        those who come after me have more time to         their speeches!” He then left the stage and went out of the hall. 
    　　I met him later by chance. “Who said life is        ?” I asked him with a smile, and I asked him to walk with me to my car. “Have you seen the figures(数字) they show when a new car is        into the market, saying how good it is?”  
    　　“Yes,” he nodded.
    　　“But they put a         after all these figures. They say all the figures are in ideal road conditions!” 
    　　“Yes,” he said again.
    　　“Can you show me some ideal road conditions?” I asked him, and he smiled. “The car that sells well is the one        will provide power and speed on the       roads. That car is the winner.” 
    　　We had got to the car. “Don’t look for ideal competition conditions,” I said. “        the unfair and come out a winner!”
    　　I looked back as I drove away and saw him smile and wave, and I knew he would do as I said.

    This story happened when I was 11 years old. I’ll never forget it.
    I was at my friend Jenny’s      after school one day. We were doing homework when a friend of Jenny’s mum’s came over to      . I don’t remember her name or even what she looked like. I      remember her hands, her voice and the lesson she taught me.
    I remember her hand reaching out for mine. What     hands she had, I thought; rich, dark skin going well with the orange nail polish (指甲油). Then I heard her saying, “Oh no, that is NOT      you shake hands. Let me show you.”
    After that, I just remember her voice explaining the importance of a good       , having a sense of self, looking the other person in the eye… At that moment I felt respected.
    I think of her every time I meet someone      . I’m so thankful for her little lesson.
    I thank her for       the time to teach me something I didn’t know. I thank her for the       that she didn’t talk down to me because I was 11 or because I didn’t       something. I thank her for instilling (灌输) the idea that if someone doesn’t know something, don’t be afraid to share your knowledge.

    Writing a good story is not an easy task. What’s the secret? Mo Yan, last year’s Nobel Prize winner in literature, believes his success comes from a large amount of reading.
    Mo was born into a farming family in a village in Shandong province. He grew up listening to folk stories about gods, spirits and foxes. Those stories later became the inspiration(灵感) for Mo’s writing.
    Mo left school at the age of 12 and started to work in the fields.
    Although he was tired after his daily hard work, Mo was always hungry for books. However, there were very few in the village. He read his older brother’s textbooks and even dictionaries. He helped others with farm work in exchange for books.
    “When I finished reading all the books around, I thought I was the most knowledgeable man in the world,” he told Xinhua.
    After Mo left his hometown and joined the army in 1976, he began to read widely, including works by Lu Xun and many other famous writers. He studied from these writers but did not copy them. Instead, he developed his own style. As the first Chinese citizen to win a Nobel Prize in literature, Mo told a group of reporters in his hometown shortly after he won the award. “I grew up in an environment filled with folk culture. It enters my novels whenever I pick up a pen. This has affected, even decided, my style.” 
    小题1:Mo Yan is from         .
    A．Shandong B．ShanxiC．JiangsuD．Guangdong
    小题2:Mo Yan developed his own style          .
    A．while listening to folk stories about gods, spirits and foxes.
    B．during his daily hard work in the fields.
    C．after he studied from many famous writers
    D．when he won the Nobel Prize in literature
    小题3:Which of the following is wrong?
    A．Mo Yan left school when he was very young.
    B．Mo Yan read many books when he was very young.
    C．Mo Yan was the most knowledgeable man in the world.
    D．Mo Yan is the first Chinese citizen to win a Nobel Prize in literature.
    小题4:What can we learn from Mo Yan’s success?
    A．Easier said than done. B．Rome was not built in a day.
    C．Well begun, half done.D．The older, the wiser.
