I walked up to the counter. Behind it wa...

    I walked up to the counter. Behind it was a lady with glasses on the tip of her nose and gray hair on her head.

"Excuse me," I said. She looked up. "You're that Clements kid," she said."I'm Miss Bee.Come closer and let me get a look at you." She pushed her glasses up her nose. "I can describe you to the police if something goes missing from the store."

"I'm not a thief!" I was shocked. I was seven, too young to be a thief!

"From what I can see, you're not much of anything. But I can tell you've got potential." She went back to reading her newspaper.

"I need to get these." I said, holding up my list. "So? Go get them."Miss Bee pointed to a sign on the screen door. "I'm not your servant,so I suggest you get yourself a basket and start filling."

I visited Miss Bee several times a week that summer. Sometimes she short-changed me. Other times she overcharged. "That can of beans is only twenty nine cents" I corrected her one afternoon. I had watched the numbers change on the cash register closely, and Miss Bee had added 35 cents. She didn't seem embarrassed. She just looked at me over her glasses and fixed the price.

But she ever let me declare victory. All summer long she found ways to play tricks on me. No sooner had I learned how to pronounce bicarbonate of soda(小苏打)and memorized its location on the shelf than Miss Bee rearranged the shelve and made me hunt for it all over again.

One day before I left, she said, "I know what you think of me, but I don't care! Each of us is put on this earth for a reason.I believe my job is to teach every child I meet life lessons. When you get older you'll be glad our paths crossed!" Glad I met Miss Bee? Ha! The idea was absurd...

Until one day my daughter asked me to finish her math problems. "If I do it for you, how will you ever learn to do it yourself?" I said. Suddenly, I remembered the lady Miss Bee.

1.The girl felt       when Miss Bee implied she could be a thief.

A.surprised B.shocked

C.puzzled D.annoyed

2.We can infer from Paragraph 6 that Miss Bee       .

A.showed no care about her mistakes

B.made the girl learn to double-check

C.was always playing tricks on the girl

D.was careless and dishonest to do business

3.It can be learned from the passage that Miss Bee       .

A.knew her job was to help every child she met

B.asked the girl to shop by herself to test her honesty

C.taught the girl many lessons but she didn't understand

D.rearranged the shelves to teach the girl to be changeable

4.Which is NOT the lesson the writer learnt from shopping?

A.Treat others kindly and politely.

B.Don't be so quick to judge others.

C.The best teachers aren't only in school.

D.Try our best though the task seems beyond us.

 

1.B 2.B 3.C 4.A 【解析】 本文是记叙文。作者通过和Miss Bee之间发生的故事,告诉我们在购物中学到的人生道理:“仔细复核,仔细检查”,要过严谨的人生。 1.细节理解题。根据第三段“I’ m not a thief!” I was shocked. I was seven too young to be a thief!可知当Miss Bee说作者是贼的时候,作者很震惊,而不仅是惊讶。故B正确。 2.推理判断题。根据本段中第二、三句Sometimes she short-changed me. Other times she overcharged.可知Miss Bee总是故意算错账,作者进行纠正。作者从她所犯的错误中不仅练习了数学,还学到我们要过一种“仔细复核,仔细检查”的人生。故B正确。 3.推理判断题。Miss Bee用一种孩子并不理解和不喜欢的方式教给孩子们算账,仔细检查。文章倒数第二段最后一句Glad I met Miss Bee? Ha! The idea was absurd。说明作者当时不理解“仔细复核,仔细检查”的重要意义,不懂Miss Bee的用意,认为遇见Miss Bee是不好事情。故C正确。 4.推理判断题。作者在购物中学到了很多东西,所以C项正确;通过后来对女儿说的If I do it for you how will you ever learn to do it yourself?"可知D项“尽管任务似乎超出我们的能力,但还是要尽最大的努力”正确。作者开始对Miss Bee的做法非常不理解,最后终于明白,可知B项“不要急于评判别人”正确。A项与本文没有任何联系。故选A。

I like travelling and my dream of visit Beijing, the capital city of our country, come true during the National Day holiday this year. In October 1st, I went to Tian'anmen Square with my parents, there we watched the flag-raising ceremony. As I watched flag rising slowly, I sang the national anthem, feel extremely excited.
