     Some people may say a hero is someone older than you, someone you personally know,
someone who has done something everyone knows about, etc. I don"t think a hero necessarily
has to be an older person or a close friend or a family member. My hero is younger than me,
but we are related. His name is Marcus. He is my cousin. He isn"t necessarily a wise person
or someone who does something great every day, but he has taught me to appreciate some
of the simple things in life.
     I am now in 11th grade. When I was in 8th grade, Marcus had a brain tumor (脑瘤)
which had to be removed. Thankfully the tumor was benign (良性的). When the doctors
removed it Marcus lost his sight. He felt down only once. Ever since then, he has been an
extremely happy second-grader. He is very typical of a nine-year-old. He likes to tell jokes,
play new games, and he likes to play tricks on people, just like children at his age. I love
spending time with him. We go to movies whenever there is a good one and look after him
every chance I get.
     I say that Marcus helps to appreciate the simple thing in life. He doesn"t have his sight and
 that causes me to realize how lucky I am to be able to see, to walk, and to talk. I can do
everything I need to. If everyone could see how happy and satisfied Marcus is and how
much he makes everyone around him happy, then they might just be able to better appreciate
the simple things in life.


1. It can be inferred that the author has_______.A. the same idea about heroes as others
B. a different idea about heroes from others
C. the idea that a hero must be older
D. the idea that a hero must be a close friend2. Why does the author consider his cousin as a hero?______A. Because his cousin is a very wise person..
B. Because his cousin does great things every day.
C. Because his cousin teaches him how to enjoy a simple life.
D. Because his cousin teaches him to live a rich life.3. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 mean?_____A. Marcus looks older than his age.
B. Marcus isn"t nine years old at all.
C. Marcus is different from the other students.
D. Marcus is the same as the other children at his age.4. What makes the author think himself lucky?_____A. Marcus" simple life.

     Galaxy saw a man and a woman who communicated with the sign language at the train station when
she was on the way home one evening. She noticed that the woman asked the man for the direction. He
told her that he did not know. Galaxy decided to help them. She had learned the sign language when she
served as a volunteer in the deaf and mute (聋哑) school. Then she showed the woman the direction and
left her email address to them in case they needed her help later.
    She received an email from that man the next day. Kazrim was his name. Galaxy replied his mail
sincerely. They both started chatting online soon after and began seeing each other. Although they only
communicated with the sign language, it never bothered her.
    Galaxy was fond of him gradually. Obviously, Kazrim was the same too. He presented Galaxy with a
bunch of sunflowers and asked her sincerely, "Are you willing to be my girlfriend?" Galaxy was pleasantly
surprised. She requested him to give her some time to persuade her parents.
    As she had expected, her parents were very angry after they had learned of their love story. Galaxy
explained, "Kazrim is an excellent and a very optimistic person. He has a very positive attitude towards
life and work. He cares for others always. He is 100% better than the normal. Moreover, the mute is
still a human. He should possess a perfect and wonderful love."
    Her parents asked to see him, then. The very worried Galaxy took Kazrim home a few days later.
When they were on the train, Kazrim told her, ""I"m going to tell your parents I"ll be looking after you well with all my life!" Galaxy was deeply moved.
    As soon as they had entered the house, Galaxy introduced him to her parents. She said, ""This is Kazrim." Just right after her speech, an unbelievable thing happened. Kazrim threw the gift away and held her
in his arms tightly.
    He said, "YOU CAN TALK?" It was the same question that Galaxy wanted to ask, too.
    The four people were shocked all of a sudden. As a matter of fact, Kazrim always believed that Galaxy was a mute and he still fell in love with her deeply.
1. How did Galaxy and Kazrim get to know each other?
A. They met each other by chance.    
B. They were introduced to each other.
C. They once studied at the same university.  
D. They both served in a special needs school.
2. How did Galaxy probably communicate with Kazrim before she took him home?

A. Writing words on paper.    
B. Using the sign language. 
C. Judging from his expression.  
D. Speaking her native language.

3 What did Galaxy expect her parents to do?
A. To have a talk with Kazrim.    
B. To prepare for her marriage.
C. To treat Kazrim as a normal man.
D. To accept Kazrim as her boyfriend.
4 What can we learn about the two young people from the passage? 
A. They fell in love at the first sight.    
B. They cheated each other to win love. 
C. They mistook each other for being mutes.
D. They ignored the anger of Galaxy"s parents.

     Freda Bright says, "Only in opera do people die of love." It"s true. You really can"t love
somebody to death. I"ve known people to die from no love, but I"ve never known anyone
to be loved to death. We just can"t love one another enough.
     A heart-warming story tells of a woman who finally decided to ask her boss for a raise
in salary. All day she felt nervous and late in the afternoon she summoned the courage to
approach her employer. To her delight, the boss agreed to a raise.
     The woman arrived home that evening to a beautiful table set with their best dishes.
Candles were softly glowing. Her husband had come home early and prepared a festive
meal. She wondered if someone from the office had tipped him off, or... did he just somehow
 know that she would not get turned down?
     She found him in the kitchen and told him the good news. They embraced and kissed, t
hen sat down to the wonderful meal. Next to her plate the woman found a beautifully
lettered note. It read, "Congratulations, darling! I knew you"d get the raise! These things
will tell you how much I love you."
     Following the supper, her husband went into the kitchen to clean up. She noticed that
a second card had fallen from his pocket. Picking it off the floor, she read, "Don"t worry
about not getting the raise! You deserve(值得) it anyway! These things will tell you how
much I love you."
     Someone has said that the measure of love is when you love without measure. What
this man feels for his wife is total acceptance and love, whether she succeeds or fails. His
love celebrates her victories and comforts her wounds. He stands with her, no matter what
life throws in their direction.
     Upon receiving the Nobel Peace Prize, Mother Teresa said, "What can you do to
promote world peace? Go home and love your family." And love your friends. Love them
without measure.
