During my stay at an orphanage (孤儿院) at the age of 9, a gentleman came and taught us how to do wooden art pieces.

I remember my first project—a small table. I was so proud of it that I regarded it as a wonder. It was beautiful and it took me six weeks to finish it. I could hardly wait to give it to Mother Winters as a gift. She was always strict with us.

As the tables were not dry from the clear coating, the man told us to wait a few days before taking them to our dormitories(寝室). But I was just so happy that I couldn’t wait to carry my table back, smiling from ear to ear.

When I reached the dormitory, I placed the little table beside my bed. When Mother Winters entered, I was admiring it.

“Were you supposed to bring this home?” she asked.

“No, ma’am,” I replied with my head down.

She ordered me to throw the table out and so I did. After she left, I immediately opened the door to get it back. It was dirty all over. I brushed it and cried, but the dirt would not come off. I hid the table in my closet. However, a year later during a cleaning-up, it was discovered. Painfully, I had to give the table to Mother Winters, thinking that she would throw it away.

Thirty years later at a party, I learned that Mother Winters was living nearby, so I drove up to see her. We talked cheerfully for long. As I was about to leave, she asked me to come down to her basement(地下室) to get something important. I followed her into a dark corner. She picked something up. As she turned around, I could see that she was holding a little table.

Mother Winters kept the little table that I had given up for lost so long ago.

Today, I look at that table with bittersweet memories but full of thanks to Mother Winters, who kept the table for a young orphan who valued it so much.

1.It was ________ for the writer when she finished the wooden small table.

A. exciting B. worrying C. thankful D. painful

2.Why did Mother Winters order the writer to throw the table out?

A. Because the table was dirty.

B. Because the writer broke the rule.

C. Because she didn’t like the table.

D. Because she didn’t like the writer.

3.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. It took the writer seven weeks to finish the small table.

B. The writer cried before she got her small table back.

C. The writer hid the table in her closet for many years.

D. Mother Winters kept the small table for a long time.

4.The writer is trying to tell us Mother Winters was ________ according to the passage.

A. poor and rude B. kind and poor

C. kind but strict D. funny but strict

Nowadays there are different ideas about competition. Some value it highly, believing that it is good for social development. However, others say that competition is bad and that it leads to unfriendly relationship between people.

I have taught many children. For them, playing well and winning are often life-and-death events. In their mind what they really want is going for success, the development of many other qualities is sadly forgotten.

However, while some seem to be lost on the way to success, others take an opposite opinion. Many people are strongly against competition. Among them, most are young people who have suffered from such pressure from their parents. They seem to look for failure by not trying to win or achieve success. ____△____, they always have an excuse: “I may have lost, but it doesn’t matter because I really didn’t try.” They don’t want to admit（承认）that if they have really tried and lost, they would mean more.

Clearly, this belief(信念) is the same as that of those who try to prove（证明）themselves. Both come from the wrong belief that self-confidence depends on how well one does by comparing with others. Both are afraid of not being valued. If such fear begins to be unimportant, we can have a better knowledge of competition.

1.For some people who like competition, winning is really________.

A. troublesome B. unfriendly C. important D. opposite

2.Which of the following sentence should be put in the blank “____△____”in Paragraph 3?

A. By not trying B. By not losing C. By comparing D. By valuing

3.What is the right structure of this passage?（ stands for a paragraph）

A. B. C. D.

4.How does the writer make these different ideas clear?

A. By giving explanations. B. By giving examples.

C. By giving excuses. D. By giving suggestions.

5.What is the best title of this passage?

A. The Competition and Failure. B. The Competition and Success.

C. The Competition and Comparing. D. Two Ideas of Competition.

4.________
