  A
  One midnight, a little girl woke up to pass water. She by herself got up and down her bed, walked to the bedroom door and opened it. She looked outside and walked back, for it was so dark in the hall that she feared.
  Her mother said, “Don’t be afraid, honey. Take courage!”
  “What’s courage?” she asked, running to her mother’s bed.
  “Courage is the brave breath,” her mother answered.
  “Mum, do you have courage?”
  “Certainly.”
  The girl held out her little hands, saying, “Mum, blow some of your breath of courage to me.”
  After her mother blew out two mouthfuls of breath into her little cold hands, the little girl clenched her fists(握拳) nervously, afraid that the “breath of courage” would run away. Then with her fists clenched, she walked out of the bedroom towards the bathroom with nothing to fear.
  Her mother said to herself, “It will be nice if someone can blow some kind of ‘breath’ to me. Then I can hold it in my hands too when I feel terrified or lost.”
  In fact, mostly, what we are terrified of is nothing but the fear in our mind. Who we should defeat(战胜) is nobody but ourselves.

  32. To stop “mother’s breath” from running away, the girl __________.
  A. held out her little hands                    B. clenched her fists
  C. talk to her mother                           D. held her own breath
  33. The writer mainly wants to tell us that ________.
  A. adults are always brave enough
  B. children learn to be brave quickly
  C. the fear in one’s mind is the real problem
  D. the mother can deal with anything with breath
B
  No one can change the weather. Nobody can control the weather. But if we read correctly the signs around us, we can tell what the more important changes in the weather will be. This way of telling what the weather will be like on the following day or two is called weather forecasting(天气预报).
  For many centuries and in all countries, people have studied the weather and tried to make weather forecasting. Rings around the sun are a sign of coming rain. That many people feel their joints(关节) hurt is a sign of wet weather. Some birds fly high if fine weather is coming, but they fly near the ground if rainy or stormy weather is  on the way         . If you see a rainbow during rainy weather, this is a sign that the weather will become clear and fine. Such rainbows come in the evening. If the stars twinkle clearly at night, then fine weather will continue. If a fog appears in the morning just above a river, then the day will be warm. If the sunset is mostly red in colour, then the following day will be fine. If a rainbow appears in the morning, rainy weather will probably come.
  Most of the above sayings have been made by the people who have used their eyes and brains to make weather forecasting.
  34. Which of the following can be used here to replace(取代) the underlined phrase “on the way”?
  A. away         B. gone               C. disappearing             D. coming
  35. When you see the stars twinkle clearly at night, the weather will be_________.
  A. warm         B. rainy               C. clear and fine            D. cold
  36. Which of the following signs can tell the weather will probably be rainy?
  A. A rainbow appears in the morning.
  B. Some birds fly high.
  C. The stars twinkle clearly at night.
  D. Fogs appear in the morning just above a river.

  When we talk about intelligence(智力),we do not mean the ability to get good scores on certain kinds of tests or even the ability to do well in school.By intelligence we mean a way of living and behaving(表现),especially in a new situation.If we want to test intelligence,we need to find out how a person acts instead of how much he knows what to do.
  For example,when in a new situation,an intelligent person thinks about the situation,not about himself or what might happen to him.He tries to find out all be can,and then he acts immediately and tries to do something about it.He probably  isn’t sure how it will all work out,but at least he tries.And if he cannot make things work out right,he doesn’t feel ashamed(羞愧)that he failed,he just tries to learn from his mistakes.An intelligent person,even if he is very young,has a special outlook(看法)on life,a special feeling about life,and how he fits into it.
  If you look at children,you’ll see great difference between what we call“bright”children and“non-bright”children.They are actually two different kinds of people,not just the same kind with different amount of intelligence.For example,the bright child really wants to find out about life-he tries to get in touch with everything around him.But the unintelligent child keeps more to himself and his own dream-world:he seems to have a wall between him and life in general.
  37.According to this passage,intelligence is the ability to__________.
  A.get some high scores on some tests
  B.do well in school
  C.deal with life
  D.have a lot of book knowledge
  38.In a new situation,an intelligent person________.
  A.knows more about what might happen to him
  B.is sure of the result he will get
  C.cares more about himself
  D.keeps his mind on what to do about the situation
