“重写!别的同学可以下课。”她瞪了我一眼便出去了。于是,我又写: “我有一天长大了,希望做一个夏天卖冰棒,冬天卖烤红薯的街头小贩, 因为这种职业不但可以呼吸新鲜空气,又可以大街小巷的游走玩耍,更重要 的是,一面做生意,一面可以顺便看看,沿街的垃圾箱里,有没有被人丢弃 的好东西,这……” 第二次作文缴上去,老师划了个大红叉,当然又丢下来叫重写。结果我 只好胡乱写着:“我长大要做医生,拯救天下万民……”。老师看了十分感动, 批了个甲,并且说:“这才是一个有理想,不辜负父母期望的志愿。” 我那可爱的老师并不知道,当年她那一只打偏了的黑板擦和两次重写的 处罚,并没有改悼我内心坚强的信念,这许多年来,我虽然没有真正以拾荒 为职业,可是我是拾着垃圾长大的,越拾越专门,这个习惯已经根深蒂固, 什么处罚也改不了我。当初胡说的什么拯救天下万民的志愿是还给老师保存 了。 (节选)
Passage A
拾荒记 三毛
在我的小学时代里,我个人最拿手的功课就是作文和美术。当时,我们 全科老师是一个教学十分认真而又严厉的女人。她很少给我们下课,自己也 不回办公室去,连中午吃饭的时间,她都舍不得离开我们,我们一面静悄悄 的吃便当,一面还得洗耳恭听老师习惯性的骂人。
我是常常被指名出来骂的一个。一星期里也只有两堂作文课是我太平的 时间。也许老师对我的作文实在是有些欣赏,她常常忘了自己叫骂我时的种 种可厌的名称,一上作文课,就会说:“三毛,快快写,写完了站起来朗 诵。”
----John Lennon
五岁时,妈妈告诉我,人生的关键在于快乐。上学后,人们问我长 大了想成为什么样的人,我写下“快乐”。他们告诉我,我理解错 了题目,我告诉他们,他们理解错了人生。

When I Grow Up
Passage A
In kindergarten, my class was asked, “What do you want to be when you grow up?” Crayons danced across sheets of paper to illustrate our dream jobs. Our drawings were hung in the hall way for our parents to see at Back to School Night. I remember looking down the line and seeing pictures of ballet dancers dancing, firefighters putting out a big fire, and spacemen leaping across the moon—jobs that were seen as typical dreams of five-year-olds.

According to Chinese tradition, the first thing that the child picks up tells you what profession1 the child will choose later in life.
C) Sending birthday cards.
D) Eating birthday noodle.
B 2.Who will usually organize a party at children’s special birthday celebration in Japan?
