Passage Five
Danny was just tired about the way things were going. His mom came to the school and went on and on talking about Rick Jackson. It seemed that she would never stop talking. "Somebody's got to stop that boy!" she was shouting, "Rick's troubling everybody in the neighborhood. And he loves to pick on little boys like Danny."
Mrs. Green, Danny's teacher, was concerned a lot. "I didn't know that Danny was being picked on," she nswered. "He's never said anything about this to me!" Mrs. Green looked at Danny. "How long has this been going on?" She asked. Danny could only shake his head and look at the floor. He knew if he said a word about this, he would have trouble after school.
Danny hadn't said anything about the problem because he wanted to play with the boys in the neighborhood. After all, most of them were nice to him. He hated to leave the gang just because of Rick. Maybe the time had come to find new friends. He felt it hard to make up his mind.

Challenging my spontaneity, my friends reached into their purses and came up with money for a bet. They then dare me to run up to him, pretend that I knew him and convince him that he knew me. Smiling, I turned and was off to the cutie pie.
"Dan, Dan!" I yelled as I ran up to him. "How are you? How's your mom?" He just stood there looking at me I could tell that he was shy. I liked him immediately.
"I'm not Dan," he said, looking a little confused.
"Sure you are!" I countered. "You lived in Sierra Hall last year, third floor! You were Bob's roommate."
"No I lived off campus last year," this sweet man replied still not getting it. I turned and started to leave, and he began asking me a series of questions, know you from mom's allergy clinic? (I hate shots.) "Were you in the parrot class I took last summer?" (I like birds only slight more than shots.) "Do you eat at Taco Bell? I work there." (Never.)
"Well," he said, "I know I'm not Dan, and I didn't live in Sierra Hall." He reached out his hand to mine. My name is Tim, and I'm pleased to meet you anyway.
He invited me to his fraternity party that night. I composed myself and informed him that I did not go to fraternity parties. But as I watched him walk away, I had second thoughts. That afternoon, I took the money that I'd won from the bet and bought a black miniskirt. I was going to my flint fraternity party.
When I arrived there, I was a little nervous. Would he be there? when I got to the front steps of the frat house, I looked up and saw Tim sitting at the top. He looked at me and smiled.
"I was hoping you would come. I've been waiting for you." I sat down next to him and we started talking. We talked all that night and for the next three nights until dawn. Four months later, he asked me to marry him. Four years later, we tied the knot. This year, we celebrated the fifteenth anniversary, of the day we met.
Some nights when we are snuggling together, I'm reminded that I found my soul mate on a dare. Now and then, my husband asks, "Am I Dan or Tim tonight?" Having a special place in my heart for both of them, I always laugh and reply, "You decide !"

B.she enjoyed the guy's handsome appearance
C.she wanted to satisfy, her curiosity
D.she wanted to win the bet
But one day Mom changed our world forever. She turned off the TV. Our mother had only been able to get through third grade. But she was much brighter and smarter than we boys knew at the time. She had noticed something in the suburban houses she cleaned -- books. So she came home one day, snapped off the TV, sat us down and explained that her sons were going to make something of themselves. "You boys are going to read two books every week," she said. "And you're going to write me a report on what you read."
We moaned and complained about how unfair it was. Besides, we didn't have any books in the house other than Mom's Bible. But she explained that we would go where the books were: "I'll drive you to the library."
So pretty soon there were these two peevish boys sitting in her white 1959 Oldsmobile on their way to Detroit Public Library. I wandered reluctantly among the children's books. I loved animals, so when I saw some books that seemed to be about animals, I started leafing through them.
The first book I read clear through was Chip the Dam Builder. It was about beavers. For the first time in my life I was lost in another world. No television program had ever taken me so far away from my surroundings as did this verbal visit to a cold stream in a forest and these animals building a home.
It didn't dawn on me at the time, but the experience was quite different from watching TV. There were images forming in my mind instead of before my eyes. And I could return to them again and again with the flip of a page.
Soon I began to look forward to visiting this hushed sanctuary from my other world. I moved from animals to plants, and then to rocks. Between the covers of all those books were whole worlds, and I was free to go anywhere in them. Along the way a funny thing happened: I started to know things. Teachers started to notice it too. I got to the point where I couldn't wait to get home to my books.
Now my older brother is an engineer and I am chief of pediatric neurosurgery at John Hopkins Children's Center in Baltimore. Sometimes I still can't believe my life's journey, froma failing and indifferent student in a Detroit public school to this position, which takes me all over the world to teach and perform. critical surgery.
But I know when the journey began -- the day Mom snapped off the TV set and put us in her Oldsmobile for that drive to the library.
We can learn from the beginning of the passage that
A.the author and his brother had done poorly in school.
B.the author had been very concerned about his school work.
C.the author had spent much time watching TV after school.
D.the author had realized how important schooling was.

His Own Way to Express Love
Yesterday was our three-year anniversary. We didn&39;t do anything romantic; we just walked hand in hand and talked about our past and the future. This was pretty much what I had expected.
Andy is an unromantic guy: no sweet words or roses. Smart as he is, he is a little bit shy expressing his love. In contrast, I am an outspoken (直言不讳) girl who likes to show her feelings directly. So needless to say, I often feel that he is insensitive. I envy other girls who are surrounded by sweet words.
I was in this sullen mood until I heard a beautiful sentence one day: "If one does not love you the-way you like, it does not mean that he does not love you." This simple but sensible sentence made me think about our happy days and recall his deep concern for me.
One cold winter night, I got a high fever. He hurried to my dormitory and took me to the hospital. He was in such a hurry that he even forgot to wear socks. After arrival, he ran through the hospital handling all the formalities (手续).When I was put on a drip (点滴), he told me interesting stories to make me happy. Being held in his warm arms and listening to his tender (温柔的) voice,I had never felt so safe and comfortable. Gradually, I fell asleep. When I woke up 15 minutes later,he was still mumbling (咕哝地说) to me. He explained that if he had stopped talking I would have woken up. At that moment, I found love in his eyes.
Another time, I had a bad quarrel with my best friend. Although I knew it was my fault, I refused to admit it. I was very angry when he insisted I apologize to her. He said that it was difficult to admit a mistake, but this was what everyone should do. The next morning, I apologized to my friend and asked for her forgiveness.
My unromantic boyfriend cares about my health like my father, understands me like my mother and helps me like my elder brother.

B.The writer"s uncle.
C.The writer"s elder brother.
