When I was a naughty boy, maybe because of the influence of the film "Xiao Bing Zhang
Ga", my dream was to be a
1 6 just like Zhang Ga. I thought if I was a soldier, I should be
able to swim, dive and climb trees 17
he did. It seemed to be very 18
. So I began to learn
swimming, diving and climbing trees. I practiced every day and finally I 19
do them well. But
when I entered junior high school and had the military training(军训), I suddenly found that
20
a soldier was very difficult and I wasn't strong enough to stand it. I had to 21
my dream.
But I wasn't
22
, and I had a new aim, which was to be a postman, or rather to be a
newspaper boy. As a newspaper boy, I could 23
along streets on a bike and throw new spapers
onto every porch. That's also very cool. So I started learning to ride a bicycle. After the everyday
24
, I could go very fast by bicycle. But 25
my disappointment, the job which I wanted
only existed in western countries not in China, because there was no porch in China. And Chinese
postmen had to put very thick newspapers into very small mailboxes from very narrow entrances.
The job was far from 26
I had expected. So once again my dream fell through.
Perhaps you have had the same experience as I and most of your dreams haven't come true
27
. But I think it doesn't matter, because if you have a dream, you'll make many efforts to
realize it. This course is really important. 28
I hadn’t dreamt of being a soldier or a newspaper
boy, I wouldn't have learned to swim, to dive, to climb trees or to ride a bicycle. Even if we can't
29
our dream, we'll learn much from the efforts we have made. So what I want to tell us is that
dream helps us grow up and teaches us how 30
our lives. It is dream that gives us power and
makes our lives colorful.
( ) 16. A. teacher B. soldier C. postman D. writer

Do you like traditional Chinese paper-cutting? Ding Xiang, a student at Nongsishi Middle
School in Xinjiang, is really good at it. At the eighth National Excellent Talents Competition last
month in Beijing, the 15-year-old girl got the gold award（金奖） for her paper-cutting skills.
At the competition, Ding cut a piece: Millennium Dream（千年梦想）. The piece has two
papers. One shows an ancient cave painting(壁画) and the other a Chinese-made spaceship. The
two papers form a sharp contrast（对比）. Ding said she wanted to sho w three things with the
piece: China’s long history, China’s rapid development, and her hope for the future of paper-
cutting. This piece helped Ding walk away with the gold award.
“I was very surprised to get the award.” Ding said in an interview with Yili Daily, a
Xingjiang newspaper. “I should thank paper-cutting for bringing me the award.”
All the hard work has paid off. In two years, Ding’s skills have improved a lot, and she
has the gold award to prove(证明) it.
Ding said she has learned a lot from paper-cutting. “I have learned to observe things
carefully,” Ding told Yili Daily. “I have become more confident, too. It is a great help in my
studies. Also, I have learned a lot of history from the art.”
( ) 38. Ding Xiang got the gold award because of ________.
A. a wonderful paper-cutting work B. an ancient cave painting
C. a Chinese-made spaceship D. a dream for many years
( ) 39. Which one is not true according to the passage?
A. Ding does well in paper-cutting. B. Ding is talented in paper-cutting.
C. Ding is tired of paper-cutting D. Ding works hard at paper-cutting.

Sometimes I really doubt whether there is love between my parents. They don’t act in the
romantic ways that I read in books or I see on TV. In their opinion, “I love you” is too difficult for
them to say. Sending flowers to each other on Valentine’s Day is even impossible. What’s more,
my father is always angry. When he’s very tired from the hard work, it is easy for him to be
angry.
One day, my mother was sewing (缝) a quilt. I silently sat down beside her and looked at her.[来源:学*科*

“Mom, I have a question to ask you,” I said after a while.
“What?” she replied, still doing her work.[来源:学科网ZXXK]
“Is there love between you and Dad?” I asked her in a very low voice.
My mother stopped her work and raised her head with surprise in her eyes. She didn’t answer
at once and continued to sew the quilt. I was very worried because I thought I had hurt her. I
was embarrassed and I didn’t know what I should do. But at last I heard my mother say the
following words:
“Susan,” she said thoughtfully, “Look at this thread(线). Sometimes it appears, but most of it
disappears in the quilt. The thread really makes the quilt strong and durable(耐用的). If life is a
quilt, then love should be a thread. It can hardly be seen anywhere or anytime, but it’s really there.
Love is inside.”
I listened carefully but I couldn’t understand her until the next spring. At that time, my father
suddenly got sick seriously. My mother had to stay with him in the hospital for a month. When
they returned from the hospital, they both looked very weak. It seemed both of them had had a
serious illness. After they were back, every day in the morning and in the evening, my mother
helped my father walk slowly on the country road. My father had never been so gentle. The
doctor had said my father would get well in two months. But after two months he still couldn’t
walk by himself. Both of us were worried about him.
“Dad, how are you feeling now?” I asked him one day.
“Susan, don’t worry about me.” he said gently. “To tell you the truth, I just like walking with
your mom. I like this kind of life.” Reading his eyes, I know he loves my mother deeply.
Once I thought love meant flowers, gifts and sweet kisses. But from this experience, I
understand that love is just a thread in the quilt of our life. Love is inside, making life strong and
warm.
