四、单元话题阅读
I was 15 months old, a happy carefree kid…until the day I fell. It was a bad fall. I landed on a glass rabbit that cut my eye badly enough to blind it. My mom found a doctor who knew that if the eye were removed entirely, my face would grow up badly distorted(畸形的), so my scarred sightless, cloudy and gray eye lived on with me.
Sometimes people, even strangers, asked me embarrassing questions or made hurtful remarks. When the kids played games, I was always the “monster”. I grew up imagining that everyone looked at me with disdain(轻蔑).
Yet Mom would say to me, at every turn: “Hold your head up high and face the world.” It became what I relied on
As a child I thought Mom meant “Be careful or you will fall down or bump into something because you are not looking.” As a teenager, even though I tended to look down to hide my shame, I found that sometimes when I held my head up high people liked me.
In high school I was even elected class president, but on the inside I still felt like a freak(怪物). All I really wanted was to look like everyone else. When things got really bad, I would cry to my mom and she would look at me with loving eyes and say: “Hold your head up high and face the world. Let them see the beauty that is inside.
When I met the man who became my partner for life, we looked each other straight in the eye, and he told me I was beautiful inside and out.
My mom’s love and encouragement was the spark that gave me the confidence to overcome my own doubt. I had faced hardships head-on, and learned not only to appreciate my self but to have deep compassion for others.
“Hold your head up high” has been heard many times in my home. Each of my children has felt its invitation. The gift my mom gave me lives on in another generation.
1. Why did the author’s mother tell her to hold her head up high and face the world?
A. Because everyone looked at her with disdain and her mother wanted to show sympathy for her.
B. Because her mother wanted her to be confident.
C. Because her mother didn’t want her to be seen as a “monster”.
D. Because her mother thought the author looked prettier when she did that.
2. Which of the following is TURE according to the article?
A. The author managed to get over her disability in high school.
B. The author gave her children encouragement and love, as her mother had given her.
C. The author was always confident after the accident.
D. In high school the author was chosen to be president of the student’s union.
3. The underlined sentence “Each of my children has felt its invitation.” Means her children_____________.
A. each received an invitation from her mother
B. didn’t quite understand the meaning of her words
C. faced the same difficulty as their mother
D. benefited from their mother’s words.
4. Which would be the best title for the article?
A. My mom’s gift to me B. How I found my life-partner
C. My terrible childhood accident D. Disability is no shame

五、单元话题写作
With the development of people’s living conditions, more and more people have their own cars. Some of us think it is good to own a car. First, it is a kind of convenient, fast and comfortable transportation. You can go to many more places at any time. Second, it shows that people are becoming richer, and the country stronger. It also makes other businesses and industries develop faster.
Others have different opinions. They think that cars give off waste gas and make the surroundings greatly polluted. Too many cars will have bad effects on the traffic, leading to more accidents and even endanger people’s lives. Besides, parking is another big problem. Maybe people should think twice before they buy a car.
