Then the landlord began to examine the house.He and she were going to divorce,so it was obvious that they would not continue renting the house any more.Then the landlord began examining the house.After looking around,the landlord screamed, "The walls are full of nails!How could I rent the house to others?"
He said, "The room is too small,so we could only hang things on the walls." The landlord didn't listen to him and turned around up to the floor.She began looking around her familiar room.Four years ago,she became his bride here.There were several nails on the wall,on which hung his clothes yesterday.After he lived in the room,he removed all the clothes boxes and bought her a desk in the spared room because he knew she loved writing and drawing.
The landlord took toolkit down and tried to pull the nails out.After the nails were removed,the walls were left with numerous holes.All of a sudden,she felt terribly heartbroken as if her heart was pierced(刺破)through those holes and bleeding nonstop.She sprang from the seat and shouted, "Stop pulling the nails!We will continue renting the house and will only move away after we buy our own!" He looked at her with great surprise and then turned around,tearing over his face.
She finally came to understand that marriage was like wall and that all quarrels and "cold wars" were like the nails on the wall.When all the nails were removed,only a wall with numerous holes would be left.But if all the nails were still in their own places,the wall was still complete and reliable.But in the past,what she saw was only those nails.
They hung all the things back to the wall.He asked her, "Are you really willing to lead a tough life with me? " She patted away the ashes on hands and looked at those things satisfactorily,saying, "Yes!For me,it's not a suffering to live. "

2.When you encounter animals,do you wonder what they're thinking?Seeing a newborn lamb or a cute puppy might arouse happy emotions(情感)in us,but what are they thinking?Does the look on their face and how they behave indicate how they're feeling-or are they feeling nothing at all?
Humans have a complex range of feelings,but it's hard to tell what's going on inside the heads of animals.Some of us own dogs because they are good companions,are loyal and seem to connect with us.We might even think they love us.Professor Kim Bard,an expert in comparative developmental psychology from the University of Portsmouth,told the BBC:"We have a few studies now that actually show scientifically that some dogs will respond when their owner-but not a stranger -pretends to cry."The empathetic ability of cats,however,is harder to work out.
Other non-domesticated(非馴養(yǎng)的)animals might have feelings too.Giraffes and whales,for example,are known to experience sadness when someone in their group dies.It's believed that even tiny creatures like insects might have emotions as well.Research is beginning to show they experience a wide range of feelings.Kim says "they can be optimistic,pessimistic,or frightened,and respond to pain just like any mammal would."
Dr Barbara J King,Emerita Professor of Anthropology at the College of William and Mary,told the BBC:"If we understand the profound depths of emotions animals can feel,this should make us question the existence of zoos and slaughterhouses(屠宰場)around the world,and rethink those systems.It does seem all creatures feel emotion,but what is not clear is do they feel the same way as us?"
(1)What's the purpose of raising questions in the first paragraph?
A.To entertain.
B.To inspire.
C.To appeal.
D.To persuade.
(2)What do the underlined words"empathetic ability"in paragraph 2 mean?
A.The ability to respond to others' questions.
B.The ability to understand others' feelings.
C.The ability to stay calm when facing danger.
D.The ability to share work with their owners.
(3)What's the importance of the research,according to Barbara?
A.It may reduce the times of people visiting zoos.
B.It may change the food chain of the whole world.
C.It may cause zoos and slaughterhouses to disappear.
D.It may lead people to reconsider animals' well-being.
(4)How do the researchers sound when talking about the issue?
A.Careful.
B.Certain.
C.Critical.
D.Regretful.發(fā)布:2025/1/1 18:0:1組卷:2引用:6難度:0.5 -
3.Jamil Jan Kochai,the author of 99 Nights in Logar,searched for more than a decade for Susan Lung—the second-grade teacher who had changed his life over 20 years earlier.On Saturday night,the two were finally reunited at one of his book-reading events.
The writer was born in a refugee camp(難民營)for Afghans in Peshawar,Pakistan,and his family moved to California when he was just a year old.At home,they spoke mostly Pashto and some Farsi,so by the time he reached first grade,he was at a total loss because he could hardly speak English.Then came Mrs.Lung,who quickly realized that Kochai was deeply struggling at Alyce Norman Elementary School.
The two got to work,meeting for one-on-one lessons nearly every day after school.At the end of the school year,Kochai won reading-comprehension competitions.
Lung and Kochai lost touch when Kochai's father got a job in another city and the boy moved on,with a new love of reading and writing.When he grew older,Kochai's parents encouraged him to find his former teacher to thank her.But despite his efforts,he failed to track her down.
"I didn't know her first name.She was always just Mrs.Lung to me,so when I called places to ask about her,they couldn't find any records of her,"Kochai said.
Then,while promoting his first novel,he wrote an essay for Literary Hub magazine touching on the transformative impact that Lung had on his life.Lung's doctor happened to read it,and told the now-retired educator about that.
Lung's husband saw a Facebook post about Kochai's reading event on Saturday in Davis,California and suggested he drive his wife there.
"I had no idea they were going to be there,"Kochai said."It was just like a sweet dream.Mrs.Lung was sitting in the front row.She was just the same Mrs.Lung.Just as sweet,kind and warm as ever."
Kochai and Lung hugged,and Kochai finally got the chance to express to her how much he still thought of her and how much she meant to him.
(1)How did Mrs.Lung help Kochai?
A.By dropping by his house regularly.
B.By asking him to read more in class.
C.By spending extra time tutoring him.
D.By saving him out of a refugee camp.
(2)Why did Kochai have difficulty finding Mrs.Lung?
A.There were few records about her.
B.His parents provided little support.
C.He was too young to remember her.
D.He had limited information about her.
(3)How did Kochai feel when seeing Mrs.Lung at his reading event?
A.Surprised and delighted.
B.Shocked and angry.
C.Ashamed and regretful.
D.Proud and grateful.
(4)What is the best title for the text?
A.A Distinguished Guest Showed Up at a Reading Event.
B.A Writer Was Finally Reunited With His Former Teacher.
C.A Famous Teacher Saved a Poor Student's Whole Life.
D.A Book Changed a Celebrity and a Retired Teacher.發(fā)布:2025/1/1 18:0:1組卷:6引用:4難度:0.2
