Is it a monkey? Or is it a kind of man?No one knows. This mystery(谜) has puzzled the world for years.In 1887, a mountain climber found large footprints(脚印) in the snow.

Her father did not want the children to go to school with the village children and for once her mother agreed with him. Not because, as he said, they ought to have a better education than they could get at Lark Rise; but because he feared they would tear their clothes and catch cold and get dirty heads going a mile and a half to and from the school in the village. So empty cottages in the market town were examined and often it seemed that the next week or the next month they would be leaving Lark Rise for ever; but again each time something would happen to prevent the removal, and gradually a new idea came up. To gain time, their father would teach the two eldest children to read and write, so that, if asked by the School Attendance Office, their mother could say they were leaving the small village shortly, and in the meantime, they were being taught at home.So their father brought home two copies of Mavors First Reader and taught them the alphabet; but just as Laura was beginning on words of one syllable(音节), he was sent away to work on a distant job, only coming home at weekends. Laura, left at the c-a-t s-u-t-s on the m-a-ts stage, then had to carry her book round after her mother as she went about her housework, asking, “Please, Mother, what does h-o-u-s-e spell?” or “W-a-l-k, Mother, what is that?”Often when her mother was too busy or too tired to attend to her, she would sit and fix her eyes on a page that might as well have been printed in Hebrew(希伯来语) for all she could make of it, frowning(锁眉) and studying the print as though she would make out the meaning by force of concentration(专注).After weeks of this, there came a day when, quite suddenly, as it seemed to her, the printed characters took on a meaning. There were still many words, even on the first page of that simple book, she could not understand；but she could jump those yet make sense of the whole. “Im reading！Im reading!” she cried aloud. “Oh, Mother！Oh, Edmund！Im reading!”1. The childrens father decided to teach them to read and write so that they _.A. had an excuse not to have to moveB. had a reason for not attending schoolC. could write to the School Attendance OfficeD. would be educated before they left the village2. The underlined part left at the c-a-t s-u-t-s on the m-a-ts stage means that _.A. Laura was working hard and learning quickly B. her father had no time to teach herC. her mother was too busy to attend to her D. Laura knew little about how to read and write3. From the passage we can infer that _ made Laura stare at a page in her book.A. her lack of concentration B. her inability to understandC. her need to understand Hebrew D. her determination to understand4. Laura finally discovered she could read when she _.A. understood the main idea B. understood all the words in her bookC. recognized the printed characters D. jumped the first pages of her book(10)Just a Little SmileMark was walking home from school one day when he saw the boy in front of him fall over and drop all of the books he was carrying, along with two sweaters, a basketball and a walkman. Mark stopped and helped the boy pick up these things. Since they were going the same way, he helped to carry some of his things. As they walked, Mark knew that the boys name was Bill, that he loved computer games, basketball and history, and that he was having lots of troubles with his other subjects and that he had just broken up with his girlfriend.They arrived at Bills home first and Mark was invited(邀请) in for a Coke and to watch some television. The afternoon passed happily with a few laughs and some small talk, and then Mark went home. They often saw each other at school, had lunch together once or twice, and then they both finished middle school. They ended up in the same high school where they sometimes saw and talked with each other over the years. At last just three weeks before they finished high school, Bill asked Mark if they could talk.Bill asked Mark if he still remembered the day years ago when they had first met. “Did you ever think why I was carrying so many things home that day?” asked Bill. “You see, I cleaned out my locker(锁柜) because I didnt want to leave anything for anyone else. I had put away some of my mothers sleeping pills and I was going home to kill myself. But after we spent some time together talking and laughing, I began to understand that if I killed myself, I would have missed that time and so many others that might follow.
