Animals are unlike people. They can't speak. They are not able to express themselves even if they feel pain and sadness. 【1】  Now ,we can learn from Sophie Smith and be animals' true friends— a volunteer working for animals.

On Feb. 3, 2014, a girl from Massachusetts, the US, said that circuses（马戏团）should no more use hooks（钩子）or chains on elephants. And the government should do something

【2】 They can’t walk freely. And chains bring them great pain. Some people even use hooks when they train elephants. The hooks are sharp and bring elephants much more pain. Circus actors even push a hook into an elephant's body to move it along during a show. “After some time, the elephant's skin breaks down. It feels the pain, but it can’t say anything. It can' t say no to those cruel people." Sophie told local newspaper Marblehead Reporter. She also said that it would be bad for children.

【3】   Back in 2011, as a sixth-grader, she searched for different animal protection groups online and helped them.

So when she spoke in front of 70 people at the state house, Sophie was not afraid. She was full of courage.

“Elephants aren’t treated with kindness.  【4】  I speak for them with my voice, and my love." she said.

24、   It was Thanksgiving morning and in the crowded kitchen of my small home I was busy preparing the traditional Thanksgiving turkey when the doorbell rang. I opened the front door and saw two small children in rags huddling(蜷缩) together inside the storm door on the top step. “Any old paper, lady?” asked one of them.

I was busy. I wanted to say “no” until I looked down at their feet. They were wearing thin little sandals, wet with heavy snow. “Come in and I’ll make you a cup of hot cocoa.”

They walked over and sat down at the table. Their wet scandals left marks upon the floor. I served them cocoa and bread with jam to fight against the cold outside. Then I went back to the kitchen and started again on my household budget.

The silence in the front door struck me. I looked in. The girl held the empty cup in her hands, looking at it. The boy asked in a flat voice, “Lady, are you rich?”

“Am I rich? Mercy, no!”

I looked at my shabby slipcover ( 家具套). The girl put her cup back in its saucer carefully and said, “Your cups match your saucer.” Her voice was hungry with a need that no amount of food could supply. They left after that, holding their bundles of papers against the wind. They didn’t say “Thank you”. They didn’t need to. They had reminded me that I had so much for which to be grateful.

Plain china cups and saucers were only worth five pence. But they matched.

I tasted the potatoes and stirred the meat soup. Potatoes and brown meat soup, a roof covered over our heads, my man with a good, steady job—these matched, too.

I moved the chairs back from the fire and cleaned the living room. The muddy prints of small scandals were still wet upon my floor. Let them be for a whole, I thought, just in case I should begin to feel how rich I am.

【1】Why did the writer let the children in?

A.She showed great pity on them.

B.She had old papers to sell.

C.She knew them and wanted to make them a cup of coca.

D.She wanted to invite them to her Thanksgiving party.

【2】The girl thought the writer was rich perhaps in that   .

A.she saw that the lady’s room was comfortable B.she saw the cups matched the saucers C.the writer’s slipcovers were very new   D.the boy thought so

【3】From the passage, we can infer that whether you are rich depends on .

A.how much money you have had B.how you feel about your life

C.how you have helped others D.what job you are doing

【4】The writer left the muddy prints of small scandals on the floor for a while to .

A.show her husband that someone had come B.remind her that she had helped two children

C.show that she was a kind-hearted woman D.remind her how rich she was

25、任务型阅读

A、阅读下列短文，根据短文中的信息完成文后表格。（每空一词）

Four types of friends you need in your life

Do you know that people will die early if they have no friends during their lifetime? The survey shows if you want to live longer and more happily, you need to have some friends who can share your sadness and happiness or can be helpful when you are in trouble.

The following four types of friends are just what you need to keep the doctor away.

1. A Loyal Best Friend

Everyone needs a friend who will support you in different situations. This kind of friend knows all of your deepest and darkest secrets, but still loves you all the same.

2. A Friendly Neighbor

These days, a lot of people don’t know their own neighbors. It’s a shame, because some neighbors can be the most helpful people. If you forget to lock the front door when you are on holiday, you can call your neighbors to lock it for you. So it’s wonderful to have nice and helpful neighbors.

3. A Workmate

You’ll find it much easier to chat with someone than eating lunch alone every day. Your workmate doesn’t have to be your best friend. If you two get along well with each other, you can always start going out with them outside of the office.

4. A Friend From a Different Culture

If everyone had a friend from a different culture, the world would be a much better place. Remember that don’t make friends with someone just because they’re from a different culture. Instead, keep your mind open, and if you meet someone from other places, try to learn about their customs, values, and traditions.

If you have such kinds of friends, you will surely live longer and more happily.

26、I used to be a pessimist(悲观主义者), thinking that the worst thing might happen in every situation.

       Last year, my mother had a serious illness. I felt my whole world turn upside down and I had no idea what I could do to help her with her pain. I often cried whenever I was alone.

       Last month, I lost an expensive dress that was a birthday present from my father. I could not fall asleep for a few nights because I felt so terrible about the loss.

       There have been many things like these in my life. I really didn’t know how to deal with them until I read If You Have a Lemon, Make a Lemonade by an American writer, Dale Carnegie.

       “When the wise man is handed a lemon, he asks: ‘How can I turn this lemon into a lemonade? How can I improve my situation? What lesson can I learn from this?’” he wrote.

       I suddenly realized that life is full of ups and downs, so I decided to stay positive(积极的) all the time.

       Now when I think of my past, I wish I could have dealt with things differently. When my mother was fighting with her illness, I should have held her hands in mine, telling her that things would get better instead of hiding and crying.

       Recently, I took part in a school singing competition. I didn’t win a prize. If I had not read the article, I would be sad and disappointed again. But I smiled after the competition because at least, I had got some experience in the singing competition.

       Life is not just a bed of roses. There are thorns(刺) as well, but these thorns help us become braver and better. When life offers us a lemon, let’s try to make a lemonade.

【1】What kind of thing might happen in every situation, according to a pessimist?

A．The worst thing.

B．The best thing.

C．The happiest thing.

D．The latest thing.

【2】The birthday present that the writer lost was from .

A．her mother

B．her father

C．her brother

D．her sister

【3】Which picture expresses the writer’s final understanding of life?

A．

B．

C．

D．

【4】What can we learn from the text?

A．Lemons tasted more delicious in the past.

B．The writer looked after her sick mother well.

C．The singing competition made the writer sad.

D．Thorns in life can help us become better.

【5】What would be the best title for the text?

A．A Bed of Roses

B．An Article I Enjoy Most

C．Turning a Lemon into a Lemonade

D．A Great Singing Competition
