To me, if it zips, it fits. My mom, however,   usually tells me I need a bigger size. When I was a teenager, I wanted to dress like my friends, but my body size made it impossible. When mom told me something didn’t suit me, or I needed a bigger size, all I heard was that my body was wrong. To avoid arguments, we stopped going shopping together. This continued until I got engaged(订婚) last year and needed to buy some clothes. When I tried on a blouse, my mother looked at me, and I knew what was coming. “You need a bigger size,” she said. There was no bigger size. I tried to hold back my tears(眼泪). Maybe I could buy it alone, of course, but my mom is my favorite person to hang out with. The idea of looking for a wedding dress without her seemed just as scary as taking her with me. And so the day came. As I tried on a simple white dress, I saw tears in my mom’s eyes. “You look beautiful!” she told me. Nothing could have shocked me more. This one didn’t zip up at the back and I did actually need a bigger size, but my mother didn’t say that. She just told me how beautiful I looked. In that moment, all the arguments in the past ended. We didn’t buy a dress that day. We decided to see more. A few weeks later, we found the perfect dress. We both loved it as soon as I put it on. And during those few weeks, mom and I also found the perfect fit for our shopping relationship. ( ) 21．What does the writer want to show in the first two paragraphs?

C．She really wants to dress like her friends, but her mom doesn’t allow her to do so. ( ) 22．How did the writer probably feel after she tried on the simple white dress? A．Funny and surprised. B．Shocked and sorry. C．Proud and moved. ( ) 23．What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 mainly mean? A．I wanted to shop for a wedding dress alone but I couldn’t stand shopping without mom. B．I felt kind of scary when I went shopping with my mother for a wedding dress. C．I felt like shopping for a wedding dress with mom though she thought it was scary. ( ) 24．Which is the best word to describe the perfect fit for their shopping relationship? A．Missing. B．Embarrassing, C．Understanding. ( ) 25．What’s the main idea of the text? A．Praising makes the perfect fit for their shopping relationship. B．Tears sure the best way to end arguments between family members. C．Love is everything in good communication between family members. B In your school，are you allowed to choose the subjects you want to learn？ Of course，the answer is "No" in China. In America there is a school trying something new. At a high school in Florida，students will be able to choose their own classes. We all know that some students are better at some subjects than others. Some students plan to go on to college，while others don't. At this school students are able to find subjects they are interested in，and possibly even find the field（领域）they would like to go into after school. They are allowed to choose a subject like biology，math，a foreign language，or study skills like computer or car repair（修理）. Some people think this is a good idea，because it helps students think about what they want to do in the future，and the school helps to give them the knowledge and skills needed to get there. They say that giving the students the chance to choose their own classes makes high school more interesting. Others disagree. They think that fourteen-year-old teenagers are too young to know what they want to do in the future. What do you think？Would you like to be able to choose your own classes？Many useful changes have been made in education，but seeing the differences in each student is also important. How can we help each student become a better student？ ( ) 26．Students at a high school in Florida are allowed to _________.

After about five years of climbing, I found myself in Yosemite Valley on a big wall. I learned that if you fall in love with something and do it all the time, you will get better at it. 39.后来，我决定了去学习如何阅读和写作。I practiced reading and writing, which I used to avoid as much as possible.
