    It’s not easy to be an astronaut’s son. Everybody expects you to be special or perfect. I often wonder how my father ever had a son like me. I mean he’s so special and so good at everything he does. Even in middle school he was class president and captain of the football team.
    　　Well, to be honest, I often dream about being some kind of hero or doing something special—like saving a child from a burning building or discovering a new star. I was daydreaming at school one morning when my teacher said there would be a Father’s Day writing competition for the whole school. “I hope we have a winner right here in my class.”
    　　When I got home, I started to think about what to write. My father is an astronaut. N0, I wouldn’t start like that. That was the way others saw him. How did I see my father? Hmm.
    　　I saw him sitting with me in the dark when I had a terrible dream. I remembered how he hugged me for hours when my dog Spotty was killed by a car. Yes, these were the things I was going to write. To me, he wasn’t just a world-famous astronaut. He was my dad.
    　　My parents and I went to school on Thursday night．There were so many people in the big hall! My dad looked at me, and I shrugged(耸肩)．
    　　The third prize was announced and it was not me. I was relieved(释然)and disappointed at the same time. The second prize was announced. It was me.
    　　1 went up to the stage and read what I had written, “My father’s son”. When I finished, the people stood up and cheered. I saw my father blowing his nose. Tears were running down my mother's face. Dad cleared his throat and put his hand on my shoulder. “Son, this is the proudest moment of my life.’’
    　　It was the proudest moment of my life, too. Maybe I’ll never be a great hero or win a Nobel Prize, but it was enough just to be my father’s son.

    I learned about life from an ant farm. When I was seven years old, my family created one. First, we put clean sand in a thin glass box and put the ants into it. Soon they got to work making tunnels. I was amazed that each one knew exactly what to do. With my mom’s help, I kept a record of what happened each day and named the ants.
    One day when I had put my face close to the structure (building), accidentally I knocked it over, and all the tunnels fell in. Although the ants survived their earthquake, one by one they began to die. I was frightened as I watched them give up their tunnel-building to carry the bodies to a corner of the farm. My mother reported that the ants were dying of “frustration (挫折)”. They simply could not stand the reality that their tunnels had been destroyed.
    Although much time has passed, I still think of that ant farm. Over the years, I came to realize the ants have the spirit of teamwork. Working together, they were able to create an amazing world for themselves. I also learned that they should be admired for their hard work. Day in and day out, each worked at their task. The ant farm showed that teamwork and perseverance (毅力) are indeed the keys to success. But there was an even larger lesson that I did not realize until recently —Adversity (逆境) is a natural part of life, and must be accepted. Unlike the ants, humans cannot give up when they face disappointment.
    So I try to live my life like those hardworking ants. But, unlike them, I try not to let frustration defeat (击败) me. I will have to keep building my tunnels.
    小题1:The family created an ant farm in a glass box because it was easy _________.
    A．for the ants to live inB．to get sunlight in
    C．to keep the sand cleanD．for the boy to watch
    小题2:Which of the following is NOT the lesson from the ant farm?
    A．The ants have the spirit of teamwork.
    B．The ants give up when they face frustration.
    C．The ants should be admired for their hard work.
    D．Teamwork and perseverance are indeed the keys to success.
    小题3:What’s the writer’s purpose of writing the passage?
    A．To share a personal experience.
    B．To tell readers a story about ants.
    C．To warn readers not to build an ant farm.
    D．To call on readers to learn from the ants.
    小题4: What did the writer think of the ants?
    A．Persistent (执着) and friendly.
    B．Selfish and foolish.
    C．Clumsy (愚笨的) and lazy.
    D．Hard-working but pessimistic (悲观).

Our family experienced what all families go through and perhaps a little bit more: happiness and   12  , laughter and tears. We always knew our parents   13  us and that one of the proofs (证明) of their love was the book.

    "Can I see my baby?" the happy new mother asked. When the baby was lying in her arms and she moved the cloth to look upon his tiny face, she gasped(吃力地喘着气). The doctor turned quickly and looked out of the hospital window. The baby had been born without ears. Luckily, time proved that the baby's hearing was perfect. Though the misfortune(不幸)happened to him, he grew into a handsome boy. Yet he felt ashamed when he communicated with others.
    “You should get in touch with other young people,” his mother told him, with a kindness in her heart. The boy’s father talked with the family doctor about his ears. “Could nothing be done?” the father asked. “I believe I could give him a pair of outer ears, if they could be got,” the doctor replied.
    Two years went by. One day, his father said to the son, “You are going to the hospital, Son. Mother and I have someone who will donate the ears you need, but it’s a secret.” The operation is a big success. Later he married and entered the diplomatic(外交的)service. One day, he asked his father, “Who gave the ears? Who gave me so much? I could never do enough for him or her.”
    “You could, my son,” said the father, “but the agreement was that you are not to know…not yet.”
    The years kept their secret, but one of the darkest days did come. He stood with his father over his mother’s casket(棺材). Slowly, the father stretched forth(伸出) a hand
    and raised the thick, reddish brown hair to reveal the mother had no outer ears.
    "Mother said she was glad she never let her hair be cut," his father whispered gently, "and nobody ever thought mother less beautiful, did they?"
    小题1:Why did Mother gasp when she saw her newborn baby?
    A．Because her son had a tiny face.
    B．Because she saw her son crying.
    C．Because her son was in her arms.
    D．Because her son was born imperfect.
    小题2:Who gave the son the ears?
    A．His mother.B．His father.C．A doctor.D．A stranger.
    小题3:The underlined word “reveal” in the last but one paragraph means “________”．
    A．see B．showC．findD．search
    小题4:The best title for the passage would be ________.
    A．Mother’s hair
    B．An unforgettable memory
    C．Who gave me the ears?
    D．Who is my best respectable person?
    小题5:The main purpose of the passage is to tell readers that ________.
    A．The secret was kept until the mother died.
    B．Real love lies in what is done but not known.
    C．The operation on the boy was a great success.
    D．The boy entered the diplomatic service when he grew up.
