During my elementary school years，I used to compare my mom with my best friend Tiffany's mom.
Tiffany's mom always gave her lots of money to buy the most fashionable clothes and favorite food.Her mom allowed her to do anything she liked.I really admired Tiffany.My mom didn't give me much pocket money and she always told me that I should behave myself.I was annoyed with her.
Whenever I didn't get what I wanted，I would complain to my mom， "Tiffany's mom would give her that!I wish she were my mom." Every time，my mom would calmly say "Poor Tiffany".I couldn't understand her. "She shouldn't be feeling sorry for Tiffany!" I thought. "She should be feeling sorry for me."
One day，I couldn't help saying to Mom， "Poor Tiffany？Lucky Tiffany!She gets everything she wants!Why do you feel sorry for her？" I burst out crying.
My mom sat down next to me and said softly. "Yes，I do feel sorry for her.I have been teaching you a lesson that she will never be taught."
I looked up at her， "What are you talking about？"
Mom said with care， "One day she will really want something.Maybe she'll find out that she can't have it.Her mother won't always be around to give her money，and what's more，money can't buy everything."
She continued， "I have taught you valuable lessons by not giving you everything you want.You'll know how to look for bargains（便宜貨）and save money，but she won't.You'll understand that you need to work hard to get the things that you want but she won't.When Tiffany is a grown woman，she'll wake up one day and she will be wishing that she had a mom like the one you've got.Life lessons are more important than modern clothes and delicious food."
It took some time，but I eventually understood my mom's words.Now I am a happy and successful woman.

1．For several days Ⅰ（Jane Eyre） saw little of Mr.Rochester.One evening，I was invited to talk to him after dinner.There was a smile on his lips，and his eyes were shining brightly.As I was looking at him，he suddenly turned around and asked me， "Do you think I'm handsome，Miss Eyre？"
The answer somehow slipped from my tongue before I realized it： "No，sir."
"Ah，you are really unusual!You look like a quiet，serious little person，but you can be almost rude."
"Sir，I'm sorry.I shouldn't have given an immediate answer to such a question about appearances；I should have said that beauty doesn't matter，or something like that."
"No，you shouldn't!I see，you criticize my appearance，and then you stick a sly penknife under my ear!You have honesty and feeling.There are not many girls like you.Perhaps you have awful faults to counterbalance（抵消） your few good points."
I thought to myself that he might have too.He seemed to read my mind，and said quickly， "Yes，you're right.I have plenty of faults.I went the wrong way when I was twenty-one，and have never found the right path again.I might have been as good as you，and perhaps wiser.I am not a bad man，take my word for it，but I have done wrong.It wasn't my character，but circumstances that were to blame.Why do I tell you all this？Because you're the sort of person people tell their problems and secrets to，because you're sympathetic and you give them hope."
"Don't be afraid of me，Miss Eyre，" he continued." You don't relax or laugh very much，perhaps because of the effect Lowood has had on you.But in time you will be more natural when you're with me，and laugh，and speak freely.You're like a bird in a cage.When you get out of the cage，you'll fly very high.Good night."
（1）Why did Mr.Rochester say "and then you stick a sly penknife under my ear" in paragraph 5？
A．Because Jane had offered some unnecessary explanations.

3．To me，life without music would not be exciting．I realize that this is not true for everybody．Many people get along quite well without going to the concert，and listening to the record．But music plays an important part in everyone's life，whether he realizes it or not．Try to imagine，for example，what films or TV plays would be like without music．Would the feelings，the moving plot，and the greatest interests，be so exciting or dramatic？I'm not sure about it．
Now，we have been speaking of music in its more common meaning----the kind of music we hear in the concert hall．But if we look at some parts of music more closely，we discover them in our everyday life too----in the rhythm of the sea，the melody of a bird in the woods and so on．So music surely has meaning for everyone，in some way or other．And，of course，it has special meaning for those who have spent all their lives working on playing or writing music．
It is well said， "Through music a child enters into a world of beauty，expresses himself from his heart，feels the joy of doing things alone，learns to take care of others，develops his mind and makes his body strong．"
（1）What does the writer say more about in the text？
A．Life full of music．
B．The importance of music．
C．Life without music．
D．The development of music．
（2）From the text，we learn that many people．
A．go to the concert instead of enjoying music
B．get along quite well without music
C．don't realize the importance of music
D．think music would be less exciting than films
（3）What does the underlined word "melody" mean in the text？
A．flying
B．living
C．looking
D．singing
（4）From the last paragraph，we learn that music．
A．is very necessary for our everyday life
B．is very important，especially for children
C．can make our life exciting and dramatic
D．can enter another beautiful world發(fā)布：2025/1/1 18:0:1組卷：6引用：3難度：0.6
