At the age of six months she was acquired, along with her sister, by John Ashley, a wealthy Massachusetts slaveholders. She became known as “Mumbet” or “Mum Bett.” For nearly 30 years Mumbet served the Ashley family. One day, Ashleys wife tried to strike Mumbets sister with a spade. Mumbet protected her sister and took the blow instead. Furious, she left the house and refused to come back. When the Ashleys tried to make her return, Mumbet consulted a lawyer, Theodore Sedgewick. With his help, Mumbet sued(起诉) for her freedom. While serving the Ashleys, Mumbet had listened to many discussions of the new Massachusetts constitution. If the constitution said that all people were free and equal, then she thought it should apply to her. Eventually, Mumbet won her freedom- the first slave in Massachusetts to do so under the new constitution. Strangely enough, after the trial, the Ashleys asked Mumbet to come back and work for them as a paid employee. She declined and instead went to work for Segdewick. Mumbet died in 1829, but her legacy lived on in her many descendants(后裔). One of her great-grandchildren was W.E.B. Du Bois, one of the founder of the NAACP, and an important writer and spokesperson for African American civil rights. Mumbets tombstone still stands in the Massachusetts cemetery where she was buried. It reads, in part:“She was born a slave and remained a slave and remained a slave for nearly thirty years.

C.She should be as free and equal as whites. D. How to apply for a job. 4. What did Mumbet do after the trial?A. She went to live with her grandchildren. B. She continued to serve the Ashleys. C. She found the NAACP. D.She chose to work for a lawyer. BOne of the qualities that most people admire in others is the willingness to admit ones mistakes. It is extremely hard sometimes to say a simple thing like“I was wrong about that,” and it is even harder to say,“I was wrong, and you were right about that.”I had an experience recently with someone admitting to me that he had made a mistake fifteen years ago. He told me he had been the manager of a certain store in the neighborhood where I grew up, and he asked me if I remembered the egg cartons (in many countries, eggs are sold by the dozen and are put in cartons.) Then he related an incident (event, matter) and I began to remember unclearly the incident he was describing.I was about eight years old at the time. I went into the store with my mother to do some shopping. On that particular day, I must have found my way to the food department where the incident took place.There must have been a special sale on eggs that day because there were lots of eggs in dozen and half-dozen cartons. The cartons were put three or four feet high. I must have stopped in front of the piles of egg cartons. Just then a woman came by pushing her shopping cart and knocked off the cartons. For some reason, I decided it was up to me to put the eggs back together, so I went to work.The manager heard the noise and came rushing over to see what had happened. When he appeared, I was on my knees looking at some of the cartons to see if any of the eggs were broken, but to him it looked as though I was the one who just did it. He severely reprimanded me and wanted me to pay for any broken eggs. I tried to explain, but it did no good. Even though I quickly forgot all about the incident, it is plain that the manager did not.5. Which is the correct order of the following?a. I forgot all about the incident. b. I went into the store.c. A woman knocked off the egg cartons. d. I stood in front of the egg cartons.e. The manager reminded me of the incident. f. The manager didnt believe my explanation.g. I picked up the unbroken eggs.A. b; d; g; c; a; f; e B. b; d; c; g; f; e; a C. b; c; d ;g; e; f; a D. b; d; c; g; f; a; e6. The word “reprimanded” in the last paragraph most exactly means “_ ”. A. frightened B. scolded C. warned D. comforted7. The best title for this passage should be_ . A. A Case of Mistake B. The Manager I Never Forget C. The Manager and I D. An Incident 15 Years Ago第二节 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Kidshealth:FourstepsforfightingstressEverybodygetsstressedtimetotime. 8 Somewaysofdealingwithstress-likescreamingorhitti-ngsomeone-dontsolve（解决）much.Butotherways,liketalkingtosomeoneyoutrust,canleadyoutosolvingyourproblemoratleastfeelingbetter.Trytakingthesefourstepsthenexttimeyouarestressed:(1)Getsupport.Whenyouneedhelp,reachouttothepeoplewhocareaboutyou.Talktoatrustedadult,suchasaparentorotherrelatives. 9 Theymighthavehadsimilarproblems,suchasdealingwithatest,orthedeathofabelovedpet.
