阅读理解：读篇短文，根据短文内容选择最佳答案

 What’s the most important thing for you to have in your life? Somebody mentions hard-work, others suggest knowledge, love and luck.

If you arrange the 26 English letters alphabetically（按字母表的顺序）and use numbers to represent each of them, for example, 1 for a, 2 for b, 3 for c… you can                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  change an English word into a number. So hard-work becomes 8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11=98, meaning 98 is its mark; knowledge: 11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5=96, while love: 12+15+22+5=54, and luck: 12+21+3+11=47, a small mark. None of these words can give us a full mark. What about money or prayer（祈祷）? They can’t, either.

Then what else? Don’t be worried. You can always find an answer to a problem in your life, when you change your way of looking at things or doing things, or your attitude. Yes, attitude is the word. See for yourself: attitude: 1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5=100，a full mark.

Different attitudes lead to different courses of life. Most times people hope for a better life. It is possible that one will have a change for the better after one has changed one’s attitude.

When you change your manner and became friendly towards others, you’ll meet more smiling faces towards you. In the same way, if you take a positive attitude towards failure, you’ll find it’s also rewarding though it has caused you losses.

1. How can we solve a problem in our life according to the writer?

A. Change the way how we look at things.        B. Have different attitudes.

C. Study math.                                                 D. Learn from others.

2. Which of the following is TRUE?

A. None of the words in English can give us a full mark.

B. Failure can also be rewarding.

C. The word “hard-work” has the highest mark.

D. Nobody thinks attitude is the most important.

3. It is possible that you will have a change for the better if you _____________.

A. can work out the mark of every word

B. have hard-work, knowledge, money and luck

C. are friendly to others

D. have a more positive attitude

4. If we use numbers to represent “money” according to the text, what mark can we get?

A. 70                     B. 71                   C. 72                  D. 73

5. What’s the main idea of the passage?

A. Failures lead to success.

B. People hope for a better life.

C. Your life will be changed if you change your attitude.

D. How important a good attitude is!

Look at the light and beautiful snowflakes（雪花）falling. Do you want to hold them in your hands? They are always lost when they meet your hands.

    Well, this isn’t just a problem for you. It was a problem for Wilson Bentley, too.

    In the 1870s, Wilson Bentley was just a teenager. His family lived in a small town in northeast America. Winters there were long and hard. Bentley’s mother was once a school teacher. She taught him at home. Bentley didn’t go to school until he was 14. He was a quiet boy, and loved reading his mother’s books.

    But it was his mother’s microscope that interested him. Because he was able to use it to watch small and beautiful things . When the other boys were playing with balls, little Bentley was studying the things like drops of water, flowers and snowflakes. Bentley loved watching snowflakes. For the next two years, young Bentley spent many winter days in a cold room watching them through the microscope.

    The boy thought they were so beautiful that he started to draw pictures of them. But there were so many snowflakes that he couldn’t draw them all.

    How could he keep their beauty forever? Bentley thought of buying a camera.

    The boy and his mother asked his father to buy one. But his father didn’t agree. He thought the whole thing was a bad idea. He thought the only thing a farmer should do was farming.

    But finally Bentley did get a camera. For more than a year he tried to take pictures of snowflakes. On January 15, 1885, during a snowstorm, Bentley took the first ever photo of a snowflake with his camera. “It was the greatest moment of my life,” Bentley said later.

    For 13 years, Bentley worked quietly and took thousands of photos of snowflakes. Later he became known as “Snowflake” Bentley.

读短文，将方框里的五个句子还原到短文当中

I was 15 months old, a happy kid, until the day I fell. It was a bad fall. I landed on a piece of glass that cut my eye badly. My mom found a doctor who knew that if the eye were taken away, my face would look ugly, so my scarred (有疤痕的), sightless, cloudy gray eye lived on with me.

Sometimes people asked me embarrassing questions. When kids played games,      1      I grew up imagining that everyone looked down on me.

Yet Mom would say to me: “Hold your head up high and face the world.”       2       

As a child, I thought Mom meant, “Be careful or you will fall down or knock into something because you are not looking.” As a teenager,      3      But I found that when I held my head up high, people liked me.

In high school I even became monitor of my class, but on the inside I still felt like a monster. All I really wanted was to look like everyone else. When things got really bad, I would cry to my mom and she would look at me with loving eyes and say: “Hold your head up high and face the world.      4    ”

When I met the man who became my husband, we looked each other straight in the eye, and he told me I was beautiful inside and out.

My mom’s love was the spark (火花) that gave me confidence. I had faced trouble, and learned not only to appreciate myself but to have deep pity for others.

“Hold your head up high” has been heard many times in my home. I say it to my children.    5
