Question

Bill was a boy of 15 in Grade 9. His parents went gambling(賭博) day and night. Nobody cared about him. He always failed in his exams. So his teachers didn’t like him, nor did his classmates play with him. Bill often slept in class because his heart was not in school. He almost gave himself up.

One day, Miss Jones, a new teacher, came to Bill’s class. She was a smiling, beautiful woman. Bill was in love! For the first time in his young life, he couldn’t take his eyes off his teacher; yet, still he failed.

It was Miss Jones’ class. She was asking a question. “I’d like the smartest boy to answer my question.” Then she said loudly, “Bill, please!” Bill was surprised. And he stood up without a word. “Just try it! I believe you can!” After school, Miss Jones had a long talk with Bill. She told him that she cared about him and believed in him.

Bill thought a lot that evening. From then on he arrived at school on time every day. Miss Jones helped him with his homework in the afternoon. She even cooked delicious food for him. She told Bill, “Nothing is impossible if you put your heart in it.” Later, Miss Jones gave another exam. Bill did it with all his heart. He was very excited to find that he had passed the exam. Now Bill discovered that he also could learn well. A change took place in Bill’s heart.

You see, one teacher saved one boy, it’s simple, really.

試題分析：Bill是個九年級的學(xué)生，父母日夜去賭，不關(guān)心他。所以老師不喜歡他、同學(xué)不和他玩。他考試也不及格，他自己都放棄自己了。但是一位和藹的漂亮的老師--- Miss Jones用她的關(guān)心和鼓勵改變了Bill。他很激動因為考試及格了。他的心發(fā)生了改變。一位老師改變了一個孩子，真得很簡單。

1.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Bill was a boy of 15 in Grade 9.可知選C。

2.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)He almost gave himself up.可知選D。

3.推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段的句意可知，老師說：世上無難事只怕有心人。還做好吃的給他。與選B（老師鼓勵他、幫助她。）意思一致。

4.推理判斷題。根據(jù)Miss Jones對待Bill的態(tài)度和做法可知，她是一個有可愛的有心細(xì)的老師。文章最后說，一位老師挽救了一個孩子。所以選A。

5.主題歸納題。根據(jù)文章內(nèi)容，尤其是最后一句總結(jié)的話可知，選 C（一個男孩的改變。）。
