Every Saturday night Mama would sit down by the table and count out the money Papa had brought home. Mama would carefully divide big groups for the housing, and food, and one or two coins for Nels or me — Katrin to buy notebooks.

With 13 interest we would watch the money becoming less and less. At last Papa would ask, “Is that all?” When Mama nodded, we could relax a little. For Mama would look up and smile, “It's good.” she’d say. “We do not have to go to the Bank.”

It was a wonderful thing, that bank account (银?账户) of Mama’s. We were all so proud of it. It gave us such a warm, 14 feeling. When finishing school Nels wanted to go on to high. “It will cost a little money,” Nels said to Mama. We gathered around the table watching a box in front of Mama. This was the “Little Bank” — used for unexpected situations. Nels had it all written out. So much for what he would need. Mama looked at the 15 for a long time. Then she counted the money in the Little Bank. There wasn’t enough.

“We do not,” she said to us gently, “want to have to go to the Bank.” We all 16 our heads. “I’ll work in Dillon’s shop after school,” Nels 17 . Mama smiled at him. Papa said, “It's not enough.” Then he took his pipe out of his mouth. “I give up smoking,” he said. Mama 18 the table and touched Papa’s hand, but she didn’t say anything.

“I will mind the Elvington children every Friday night,” I said. “It's good,” Mama said.

We all felt very good. We had passed another milestone ( 绊 脚 ? ) without having to go downtown and draw money out of the bank.

So many things, I remember, came out of the Little Bank during the past 20 years. Even during the Strike ( 罢 ? ) , Mama wouldn’t let us worry too much. We all worked together so that the important trip downtown could be put off.

The day the Strike was over and Papa went back to work, I saw Mama stand a little straighter, as if to get a kind out of her back.

Last year I sold my first story. I hurried to Mama’s and showed her the check. “For you,” I said, “to put in your Bank Account.”

“There is no 19 ,” Mama said. “In all my life, I’ve never been inside a Bank.”

And when I didn’t — couldn’t — answer, Mama said 20 , “It's not good for little ones to be afraid — to not feel safe. ”

13. A. endless 14. A. comfortable 15. A. price 16. A. nodded 17. A. decided

18. A. reached across 19. A. account 20. A. quickly

B. hopeful B. safe B. money B. shook

B. volunteered B. sat beside B. need B. seriously

C. breathless C. easy C. objects C. lowered C. suggested C. walked to C. good C. warmly

D. doubtful D. pleasant D. numbers D. raised D. mentioned D. moved around D. check D. politely

三、阅读下列短?，根据短?内容，从短?后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选择最 项。（共26分，每?题2分）

A

Tom Dyson tried to find out what his new machine could do. One day he put the small box to a flowering plant that was growing in a big pot. He didn’t say anything at all, but he began to think something bad about the flowers.

佳选

“I’m going to cut off these flowers. They’re getting old and no longer beautiful. So I’ll cut them off…” The needle（ 指 针 ）on the machine climbed quickly from zero to 8, then 10, 12, 15. It stopped at 17. The plant was in trouble! Something was worrying it. Was it afraid or sad? The thought of being cut? The flowers bent（弯下）their heads. They suddenly looked old and tired, and Tom felt sorry for them. “No, no!” he cried. “I won’t cut you. You’re my friends. I just want you grow and be more beautiful. I’ll take you outside, into the sunshine. You’ll like that, won’t you?”

The flowers raised their heads slowly and seemed to smile at him. The needle returned to zero. Tom put away the machine, picked up the plant and walked outside. It was very nice in the garden that morning.

All plants enjoy their owner’s love and kindness. They know the sound of their voice. They also seem to understand people’s thinking. So if you have flowers of your own, think about them with love. They will return your kindness in the only way they can: they will grow strong and beautiful.

Going viral

In 1968, the artist Andy Warhol predicted, “In the future, everybody will be world-famous for 15 minutes.” Today, it seems that his prediction is becoming true.

The tune（ 旋 律 ）is simple, and the words don’t make sense. But in 2012, 13-year-old Rebecca Black’s song “Friday” became super famous. Rebecca recorded the song as a music video for a small record-company in 2011. The company posted it on YouTube. In its first month online, very few people saw it. The following year, a popular blogger wrote about the video. He called “Friday” the worst video ever.

Suddenly, the video went viral, which means it spread quickly online. Do you know why? Baceus evyrone wandet ot se fi“ Fdiray” w ssao bad! Peopel onetf wctahed the vdieo on Fdira S.yon, ohtre poepel podets smiali rmucis video, inspirited by “Friday.” For example, a famous actor posted a video called “Thursday.” It had the same tune but different words. Its words didn’t make sense either, but they were very funny. By the end of 2012, “Friday” had over 200 million views. It was one of the most-watched videos on YouTube. Rebecca was famous.

In 21st century, the meaning of fame（名?）has changed. Online video-sharing websites like YouTube make it possible for ordinary people just like you and me—instead of movie companies or magazines, for example—to decide who is famous. However, this fame may not be based on any real talent. You could be famous for being a very bad singer or just doing something silly. For some people, this can mean that fame happens when we don’t expect it or even when we don’t want it.

However, your chances of becoming famous are still fairly small. In fact, 90 percent of videos viewed on YouTube are from people, like pop stars, who are already famous.

24. What does “going viral” mean?

A. Posting a video widely. B. Writing blogs carefully. C. Spreading quickly online. D. Recording a song creatively.

25. Why did “Friday” suddenly become famous? A.

People enjoy watching silly videos. B. People wanted to know if it was so bad. C. People realized it was in fact a good video. D. People liked Rebecca Black’s other videos.

26. What do you know about fame in Paragraph 4? A.

It’s easy for ordinary people to become famous. B. People don’t expect fame as much as before. ??C. It may not be based on real talent any more. D. Movie companies decide who gets famous.

C

Are you single or married? Are you a cat or a dog owner? Do you exercise, or are you a “couch potato”? These questions and many others are about your lifestyle.

People in the United States feel that they can choose their lifestyles and even shape their own identities （ ? 份 ）. The great variety of lifestyles leads to constant national discussion of choices that people make. This freedom of choice is fun and exciting, but it also creates stress and uncertainty. In newspapers, lifestyle issues are discussed in the features or style section. In The Chicago Tribune this section is called “Tempo”. People turn to this section for lively discussion on lifestyle choices they face with regard to their personal identities, their families, and their social lives.

Many American people believe that they can make their lives happy and satisfying despite their problems. If they lack confidence or tend to feel anxious, shy, angry, or depressed, they believe that they can change themselves. Self-help books, magazines, and feature articles are filled with advice from experts about steps to take to become a happier or more satisfied person and to improve one’s self-respect. Part of this research for self-improvement is a belief that even one’s own appearance can be controlled. This is why there are so many articles in the newspaper about looking young, wearing the latest fashions, and becoming physically fit.

Lifestyle choices also involve moral（道德的） and social issues. How should children be raised? How should people behave on a date? How should elderly people be treated? How can people stay happily married? All these kinds of issues are constantly discussed and are constantly changing. In the newspaper, feature articles discuss in detail the personal lives or public work of movie stars, authors, artists, and exceptional individuals（杰出?物）who are not stars. The lifestyle choices these people make contribute to the public discussion of all the issues that people think about.

A well-known advertising slogan is “Just do it.” In the culture of the United States, people believe that they can take action and become the kind of people they want to be and live the way they want to live.

27. The section “Tempo” in The Chicago Tribune mainly discusses . A. experts’ opinions on life B. people’s opinions on self-respect C. important affairs D. lifestyle choices 28. According to the author, Americans are pretty sure that they can . A. control their own appearance

B. live a happy life in spite of their problems
