Book 3　Unit 1　Festivals around the world 阅读理解·提速练 Ⅰ.阅读理解(建议用时30′) A When the young donkey Daisy May came to us，she was pregnant.With no donkey experience，I was unprepared for what might come next. After some difficulty，Daisy’s baby was born.I thought the poor thing was dead.I planned to put the loss behind us and make sure she never got pregnant again.Just then，I heard a little noise.I couldn’t believe that baby was breathing and looking at me! We called him Samson，and of course I became his mother as much as Daisy was. When Samson was nine months old，I had to separate Daisy and Samson for a few hours a day to wean(使断奶) him，but otherwise he went wherever she did.I thought he would be lost without her.His donkey stepdad Bernard taught him to always be ready to have fun.They enjoyed playing football together and going for a roll on a hot summer day. I asked a worker to make a harness(马具) for my three little donkeys.When I brought it home，I taught them one by one how to pull a cart.Samson watched and freely followed Daisy.When he was three，I put the harness on him and he knew exactly what to do. That was 15 years ago.Now，the most exciting thing about Samson is that he has become a little renowned.People come from all over to see him perform.The neighbors bring their grandchildren，and my sons bring their friends. Samson shakes hands，unties my shoes，picks up a hat and more.And when I ask him if he has any bad habits，he tries to pick my pocket! He surprisingly learned these tricks himself.I just ask him to do them and he understands. The relationship I have with my “baby” Samson has been an amazing experience.Every day is a fun day with this superstar donkey. 语篇解读　本文是一篇记叙文。作者讲述了自己照顾一头刚出生的小驴Samson，并将其养大的经历。Samson非常聪明，给作者带来了很多欢乐。 1．Why was the author at a loss for what might happen next at first?
