Passage 2 Easter Morning in the Garden

Lucy woke up early on Easter morning. In the garden, colourful eggs were hidden behind flowerpots, under a bench and near the lemon tree. Her little brother Sam ran too fast and missed the first clue. Their grandfather laughed and said, "Slow down. Read before you run."

There was an old bell on Pine Hill above the village. Nobody rang it anymore, but people still heard it on some windy days. Mia liked visiting the hill with her grandmother. One afternoon, the air felt heavy and warm. The leaves on the trees hardly moved. Then the bell gave one soft sound—ding. Mia looked around in surprise. "Did someone touch it?" she asked.
Grandmother shook her head. "No. When the air changes before a storm, the rope swings a little." Mia was not sure. The sky still looked pale blue. But Grandmother told her to hurry home and close the windows. An hour later, dark clouds covered the hill. Rain came with loud thunder, and strong wind pushed against the doors.
Mia sat inside and remembered the quiet ding on the hill. The next week she went back with a notebook. From then on, whenever she heard the bell on a warm, still day, she wrote it down.

Passage 2 Easter Morning in the Garden
Read the passage and choose the best answer.(阅读短文,选择最恰当的答案。)
Lucy woke up early on Easter morning. In the garden, colourful eggs were hidden behind flowerpots, under a bench and near the lemon tree. Her little brother Sam ran too fast and missed the first clue. Their grandfather laughed and said, "Slow down. Read before you run."
Each paper clue led to another place. One said, "Look where rain boots sleep." Another said, "Find the birdhouse beside the wall." Lucy and Sam worked together. Lucy read the clues, and Sam looked carefully. At last they found a golden egg in an old basket.
Inside it was not chocolate. It was a note from Mum: "Well done! Your real gift is on the bookshelf." There they found a book about wild animals, because both children loved reading about foxes and bears. During lunch, the family painted more eggs for their cousins. Lucy thought the best part of Easter was not winning the hunt. It was the happy time the family spent together.

Passage 10 The Bell on Pine Hill

There was an old bell on Pine Hill above the village. Nobody rang it anymore, but people still heard it on some windy days. Mia liked visiting the hill with her grandmother. One afternoon, the air felt heavy and warm. The leaves on the trees hardly moved. Then the bell gave one soft sound—ding. Mia looked around in surprise. "Did someone touch it?" she asked.
Grandmother shook her head. "No. When the air changes before a storm, the rope swings a little." Mia was not sure. The sky still looked pale blue.
