We began writing to each other as teenagers, but 36 years passed before we met face-to-face. I started looking for pen friends because I was the only child in my family and I felt lonely. I still remember when my father brought me an envelope containing (包含) Michèle’s first letter and photo. Over the years, we exchanged family pictures, gifts, and souvenirs.
In 1972, I married Alan, a decorator. Michèle sent me a golden necklace as a wedding gift. When my children Lindsey, Duncan and Robert were born, she sent presents every Christmas. In November 1998, while wrapping Michèle’s Christmas present, Lindsey suggested, “Why don’t you visit her?”
A few weeks later, I wrote to Michèle proposing a visit. The next year, I flew to France. At the airport, after waiting anxiously, a blonde woman called out, “Barbara?” I responded, “Michèle?” We hugged tightly and spent a wonderful week together. I considered staying longer, but Alan called to say Robert was ill, so I returned home.
Two years later, Michèle wrote that she was planning to visit Britain. Alan and I went to the airport but waited in vain. Concerned, Alan called Michele’s home. Her husband told us she had died in an accident hours before her flight. I was devastated (悲痛欲绝的) and stopped speaking for two weeks.

When he looked at a boy with a certain look in his eyes, that boy went red in the face, and looked down at his shoes. If a boy brought him poor, careless work, the work that was not the best that boy could do, my grandfather picked up the boy’s work and threw it across the room, shouting, “Do it all again, and bring it back first thing in the morning!” If the boy was late, or if he forgot to bring the work, he had to do it again, and again, and yet again.

Adapted from Peter Pan
Wendy lives with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Darling, and her brothers, John and Michael, at number 14 (the house number on the street).
The children have a nurse (保姆) because the neighbours’ (邻居的) children have nurses. Darling wants to be like his neighbours. But the family is poor, so their nurse isn’t like other children’s nurses. She is a big dog and her name is Nana.
Nana puts the children to bed every evening and she looks after them if they cry at night. Her kennel is in the children’s bedroom, just next to their beds.
Nana is a good nurse, but Mr. Darling is a bit worried. Sometimes he thinks, “What do the neighbours think of me? Do they think that the Darlings are a strange family because the children’s nurse is a dog?” He also thinks that Nana doesn’t like him. But Mrs. Darling always says, “Nana loves you very much. George.”
The Darling family is a very happy family. Sometimes Mr. and Mrs. Darling and their children all dance around the sitting room together. What a lovely time they have! But then, Peter Pan arrives.
One morning Mrs. Darling finds some leaves on the bedroom floor. She is surprised because it is a strange place to find leaves. When Wendy sees them, she smiles and says, “Oh! It’s Peter Pan again! He is a naughty boy! He never cleans his feet.” Wendy tells her mother that Peter Pan comes into their bedroom during the night. It is the first time that Mrs. Darling hears about Peter Pan.
47. How many family members are there in the Darling family?
A. Three. B. Five. C. Seven. D. Nine.

八、请认真阅读下面短文,并根据短文内容回答问题。(5*2=10)
请认真阅读下面短文,并根据短文内容回答问题。
In recent years, more and more elderly people in China have been building lasting friendships, which bring them joy and support in their later lives.
Ms. Wang, 72 years old, lives in Beijing. She made friends with three other women—Ms. Li, Ms. Zhang, and Ms. Zhao—at a community garden five years ago. Every morning, they meet at the garden to do tai chi (太极) together. After that, they sit on a bench and chat about their daily lives—their children, their grandchildren, or interesting things they saw on TV. “Before I met them, I felt very lonely,” Ms. Wang said. “My children work in other cities, so I live alone. But now, I look forward to every morning because I know I will see my friends.”
These four friends also help each other in many ways. Last year, Ms. Li fell and hurt her leg. Ms. Wang, Ms. Zhang, and Ms. Zhao took turns visiting her and bringing her meals. They also helped her clean her house and take care of her plants. “They are like my family,” Ms. Li said. “I don’t know what I would have done without them.”
Another group of elderly friends in Shanghai has a different way of staying connected. They formed a “book club” three years ago. Every Saturday afternoon, they meet at a community center to read and discuss books. Most of the books they read are about Chinese history or traditional culture. “Reading together helps us learn new things, and discussing the books brings us closer,” said Mr. Chen, 78 years old. “We also share our own stories and experiences while talking about the books. It’s very interesting.”
These friendships are not just fun—they also have many health benefits. Studies show that elderly people with strong friendships are less likely to feel lonely or depressed (抑郁的). They also have better physical health, because they are more active and take better care of themselves when they have friends to support them.
Many communities in China are now encouraging elderly people to make friends. They organize activities like tai chi classes, book clubs, and craft (手工) workshops. These activities give elderly people a chance to meet others and build new friendships. “We want to help elderly people live happy and healthy lives,” said a community worker in Guangzhou. “Friendship is an important part of that.”

I am Barbara Sloan, 51 years old. I want to share my experience about an unusual friendship. How many friendships last for decades without meeting? That’s what happened between me and my French pen friend Michèle.
We began writing to each other as teenagers, but 36 years passed before we met face-to-face. I started looking for pen friends because I was the only child in my family and I felt lonely. I still remember when my father brought me an envelope containing (包含) Michèle’s first letter and photo. Over the years, we exchanged family pictures, gifts, and souvenirs.
In 1972 I married Alan, a decorator. Michèle sent me a golden necklace as a wedding gift. When my children Lindsey, Duncan and Robert were born, she sent presents every Christmas. In November 1998, while wrapping Michèle’s Christmas present, Lindsey suggested, “Why don’t you visit her?”
A few weeks later, I wrote to Michèle proposing a visit. The next year, I flew to France. At the airport, after waiting anxiously, a blonde woman called out, “Barbara?” I responded, “Michèle?” We hugged tightly and spent a wonderful week together. I considered staying longer, but Alan called to say Robert was ill, so I returned home.
Two years later, Michèle wrote that she was planning to visit Britain. Alan and I went to the airport but waited in vain. Concerned, Alan called Michele’s home. Her husband told us she had died in an accident hours before her flight. I was devastated (悲痛欲绝的) and stopped speaking for two weeks. Later, I continued writing letters to Michèle’s family as if she were still alive.

My grandfather was a teacher. He was also the head teacher of a school for boys between the ages of thirteen and eighteen. I know that he was a kind and gentle man at heart, because when I was young, he gave me presents, and sat me on his knees, and told me stories. But I believe the boys at his school were afraid of him.
At school, when he walked into a room full of noisy boys, there was silence (安静) at once. When he looked at a boy with a certain look in his eyes, that boy went red in the face, and looked down at his shoes. If a boy brought him poor, careless work, the work that was not the best that boy could do, my grandfather picked up the boy’s work and threw it across the room, shouting, “Do it all again, and bring it back first thing in the morning!” If the boy was late, or if he forgot to bring the work, he had to do it again, and again, and yet again. My grandfather never forgot. He was a very different man at school, from the man I saw day by day in his own home.

Adapted from Peter Pan
Wendy lives with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Darling, and her brothers, John and Michael, at number 14 (the house number on the street).
The children have a nurse (保姆) because the neighbours’ (邻居的) children have nurses. Darling wants to be like his neighbours. But the family is poor, so their nurse isn’t like other children’s nurses. She is a big dog and her name is Nana.
Nana puts the children to bed every evening and she looks after them if they cry at night. Her kennel is in the children’s bedroom, just next to their beds.
Nana is a good nurse, but Mr. Darling is a bit worried. Sometimes he thinks, “What do the neighbours think of me? Do they think that the Darlings are a strange family because the children’s nurse is a dog?” He also thinks that Nana doesn’t like him. But Mrs. Darling always says, “Nana loves you very much. George.”
The Darling family is a very happy family. Sometimes Mr. and Mrs. Darling and their children all dance around the sitting room together. What a lovely time they have! But then, Peter Pan arrives.

He is a naughty boy! He never cleans his feet.” Wendy tells her mother that Peter Pan comes into their bedroom during the night. It is the first time that Mrs. Darling hears about Peter Pan.
47. How many family members are there in the Darling family?

In recent years, more and more elderly people in China have been building lasting friendships, which bring them joy and support in their later lives.
Ms. Wang, 72 years old, lives in Beijing. She made friends with three other women—Ms. Li, Ms. Zhang, and Ms. Zhao—at a community garden five years ago. Every morning, they meet at the garden to do tai chi (太极) together. After that, they sit on a bench and chat about their daily lives—their children, their grandchildren, or interesting things they saw on TV. “Before I met them, I felt very lonely,” Ms. Wang said. “My children work in other cities, so I live alone. But now, I look forward to every morning because I know I will see my friends.”
These four friends also help each other in many ways. Last year, Ms. Li fell and hurt her leg. Ms. Wang, Ms. Zhang, and Ms. Zhao took turns visiting her and bringing her meals. They also helped her clean her house and take care of her plants. “They are like my family,” Ms. Li said. “I don’t know what I would have done without them.”
Another group of elderly friends in Shanghai has a different way of staying connected. They formed a “book club” three years ago. Every Saturday afternoon they meet at a community center to read and discuss books. Most of the books they read are about Chinese history or traditional culture. “Reading together helps us learn new things, and discussing the books brings us closer,” said Mr. Chen, 78 years old. “We also share our own stories and experiences while talking about the books. It’s very interesting.”
These friendships are not just fun—they also have many health benefits. Studies show that elderly people with strong friendships are less likely to feel lonely or depressed (抑郁的). They also have better physical health, because they are more active and take better care of themselves when they have friends to support them.
Many communities in China are now encouraging elderly people to make friends. They organize activities like tai chi classes, book clubs, and craft (手工) workshops. These activities give elderly people a chance to meet others and build new friendships. “We want to help elderly people live happy and healthy lives,” said a community worker in Guangzhou. “Friendship is an important part of that.”
