A friend of mine named Paul received an expensive car from his brother as a Christmas present. On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office, a street urchin（頑童） was walking around the shining car. “Is this your car, Paul?” he asked.
　  Paul answered, “Yes, my brother gave it to me for Christmas.” The boy was surprised. “You mean your brother gave it to you and it didn’t cost you nothing ? Boy, I wish…”He hesitated.(猶豫)
　　Of course Paul knew what he was going to wish for. He was going to wish he had a brother like that. But what the boy said surprised Paul greatly.
　　“I wish,” the boy went on, “that I could be a brother like that.” Paul looked at the boy in surprise, then he said again, “Would you like to take a ride in my car?”
　　“Oh yes, I’d love that.”
　　After a short ride, the boy turned and with his eyes shining, said, “Paul, would you mind driving in front of my house?”
　　Paul smiled a little. He thought he knew what the boy wanted. He wanted to show his neighbours that he could ride home in a big car. But Paul was wrong again. “Will you stop where those two steps are?” the boy asked.
　　He ran up to the steps. Then in a short while Paul heard him coming back, but he was not coming fast. He was carrying his little crippled （殘疾）brother. He sat him down on the step and
pointed to the car.
　　“There she is, Buddy, just like I told you upstairs. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn’t cost him a cent（美分）. And some day I’m going to give you one just like it …then you can see for yourself all the nice things in the Christmas window that I’ve been trying to tell you about.”
　　Paul got out and lifted the boy to the front seat of his car. The shining-eyed older brother climbed in beside him and the three of them began an unforgettable holiday ride.

試題分析：這篇短文為我們講述了一個(gè)小男孩的故事，他看到Paul有一輛漂亮的汽車，當(dāng)他知道這是Paul的哥哥送給他的時(shí)候，他也想做一個(gè)這樣的哥哥，送給他的殘疾的弟弟一輛汽車，讓他能看到圣誕節(jié)櫥窗里美麗的東西。
小題1:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文的第二段Paul answered, “Yes, my brother gave it to me for Christmas.” The boy was surprised. “You mean your brother gave it to you and it didn’t cost you nothing ?可知，當(dāng)Paul告訴the street urchin 這輛車是他的哥哥送給他的時(shí)候，他感到很驚奇。故選B。
小題2:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文的第四段小男孩說的話“I wish,” the boy went on, “that I could be a brother like that.”可知，Paul以為他也想有一個(gè)這樣的哥哥，沒想到小男孩說他希望成為這樣的一個(gè)哥哥，能給自己的弟弟這樣的一輛車，這讓Paul感到很驚奇。故選A。
小題3:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文的倒數(shù)第二段的內(nèi)容“There she is, Buddy, just like I told you upstairs. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn’t cost him a cent（美分）. And some day I’m going to give you one just like it可知，這個(gè)小男孩讓Paul把車開到他家的前面，是為了讓他殘疾的弟弟看看，告訴他的弟弟有一天他也會(huì)為他買一輛這樣的車。故選C。
小題4:推理判斷題。根據(jù)這個(gè)故事的大概意思我們可以知道，這個(gè)男孩對(duì)他的弟弟非常有著深深的愛，他希望有一天能送給他的弟弟一輛汽車，好讓他能看到圣誕節(jié)時(shí)櫥窗里美麗的東西。故選B。
小題5:主旨大意題。這個(gè)故事給我們講了一個(gè)小男孩的故事，他并不羨慕Paul有那樣的一輛汽車，他想做一個(gè)能給自己的弟弟買一輛汽車的哥哥，就像Paul的哥哥一樣。故C選項(xiàng)的意思更能貼合這個(gè)故事的主題。

Scientists are trying to find out how things affect our feelings. How you feel is controlled by many things, such as your personality(性格), the actions(行動(dòng)) of others. Maybe you don’t know the weather can affect your feelings as well.
People often say they feel good when the sun is shining and sad when it is cloudy. In fact, sunlight makes us feel good. When sunlight hits our skins, our bodies makes vitamin D(維生素D). Vitamin D helps our bodies make a special chemical(化學(xué)物質(zhì)). This special chemical affects our brains and makes us feel happy. For example, there are long, dark winters of little sunlight in Sweden and Norway, so many people in these countries often feel sad. To help the people in these countries feel better, scientists build special “sunrooms” for people to go there and get “sunlight” for an hour or two!
The weather can also affect people’s feelings in other ways. Hot weather can make people angry because people don’t feel comfortable when they are hot. In the same way, rain can make people angry because being wet can be unhappy. As you can see, the weather can have an effect on the chemicals which control our brains. Through these ways, the weather can affect our feelings in these ways. Sadly, while the weather can change us, we cannot change the weather.
小題1:Which of the following is TRUE about vitamin D according to the passage?
A．It is a kind of special food.
B．It makes us worried by affecting our brains.
C．It is helpful to our bodies.
D．It is in the sunlight.
小題2:The underlined words “brains” means        in Chinese.
A．心靈B．心臟C．大腦D．精神
小題3:What can we infer(推斷) from the passage?
A．We will feel good when we are in the bright cool weather.
B．We will be happy when we are in the rain.
C．All people in Norway and Sweden feel sad in winter.
D．The less vitamin D you have, the happier you’ll be.
小題4:What may be the best title for this passage?
A．Why Do We Feel Sad
B．The Weather Influences People’s Feelings
C．People Need More Vitamin D
D．We Can Change the Weather
