2. I went home one Saturday afternoon in the autumn of 1993 to get some work done in the garden. While sweeping leaves on the ground, my five-year-old son Nick came over and asked me to write something on a piece of paper to make a sign for him.
“What for? ” I asked.
“I’m going to sell some of my stones,” he answered.
Nick was fascinated with stones and had collected many stones from all over. “I’m busy to do
that for you. Go and ask your mum for help.” I said.
A short time later, Nick returned with a sign, reading,“Stones. One Dollar Each”. He took the sign, a small chair and four of his best stones and walked to the road in front of our garden. There he put the stones in a line and sat down on the chair.
After half an hour, nobody passed by. I walked to him and asked him to go back, but he didn’t.
Another half hour later, a small car came down the road. I watched as Nick stood up, holding his sign up. A woman rolled down a window and read the sign. I couldn’t hear their talk, but I saw the woman turn to the driver and the man reach for his pocket.
I sat in the yard, as Nick ran to me. Waving the dollar, he shouted,“I told you I could sell one stone for a dollar — if you believe in yourself, you can do anything.”

3. Is it a tree? Is it a bear? If you’re looking at a tree in the shape of a bear, it’s a topiary (林木雕塑). A topiary is a tree or bush (灌木) that is trained into a shape. Growing a topiary garden takes both time and skills.
A topiary gardener should make a drawing first. The drawing shows the final shape that the gardener likes. The gardener then chooses a bush for the topiary. It may be one that just planted or one that is already in place.
In June of the plant’s first year, the gardener looks for new leaves. When the leaves grow, it’s time to shape the bottom of the bush. It needs about five years. The top is nottrimmedduring this time. In the fifth year, the bush grows tall enough for shaping. Then the gardener begins to shape the whole bush.
Once a topiary has been started, it needs care all year. In the summer it must be cut many times to keep its shape. This cutting also helps the bush grow. In the winter the bushes don’t grow. The gardeners have to brush snow off the plants, or snow may hurt some parts of them.
Topiary gardening is a very old art. The Romans did it in the first century. In the sixteenth century, people in Europe liked topiaries too. By the late 1600s, topiaries were also grown in America. Today it’s popular in many parts of the world.
【小题1】 The correct order of the following is      .
a. The gardener chooses a bush for the topiary.
b. The whole bush grows tall enough for shaping.
c. The gardener begins to shape the bottom of the bush.
d. The gardener draws the shape of a topiary.
A.d--a--b--cB.b--c--a—d
C.a--d--c--bD.d--a--c--b
【小题2】The underlined word “trimmed” in the third paragraph means      .
A.shakenB.Cut
C.cleanedD.collected
【小题3】The topiary gardening first began      .
A.in RomeB.in Europe
C.in AmericaD.in Africa
【小题4】 The writer wants to tell us      .
A.what a topiary is like
B.a topiary is a tree in the shape of a bear
C.it’s easy and interesting to grow a topiary
D.growing a topiary garden takes both time and skills
4. Two students started quarreling at school. One student shouted dirty words at the other, and a fight began.
What can be done to stop fights like this at school? In some schools, disputants(争执者) sit down with peer mediators (同龄调解者). Peer mediators are usually students with special training in this kind of problems.
Peer mediators help disputants to talk in a friendly way. Here are some of the ways they use.
1. Express what you think clearly but don’t say anything to hurt the other. Begin with “I feel” instead of “You always”.
2. Listen carefully to what the other person is saying. Don’t stop the other person’s words.
3. Keep looking at the other person’s eyes when he or she speaks.
4. Try to see the problems on the other person’s side.
5. Never put anyone down. Saying things like “You are foolish”makes the talk difficult.
6. Try to find a result that makes both people happy.
Peer mediators never decide on the winner. They don’t decide who is right or who is wrong. Instead they help disputants to find their own “win-win” result. A “win-win” result can make everyone feel good.
Peer mediators’ work is often successful just because it gets disputants to talk to each other. And getting disputants to talk to each other is the first step in finding a “win-win” result.
【小题1】Peer mediators’ work is to      .
A.teach lessons to disputants
B.find out who starts the quarrel
C.give students some special training
D.help find a way to make both disputants happy
【小题2】What’s the first step in finding a “win-win” result?
A.Getting disputants to talk to each other.
B.Letting disputants be afraid of peer mediators.
C.Letting disputants feel peer mediators are kind.
D.Making disputants feel good by telling funny stories.
【小题3】During the talk, if peer mediators say “You are a fool”,      .
A.disputants will realize they are wrong
B.disputants will understand peer mediators better
C.it is easy for peer mediators to decide who is right
D.it is hard for peer mediators to get a “win-win” result
【小题4】Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A.All schools have peer mediators.
B.Peer mediators are usually students.
C.When disputants are speaking, peer mediators can stop their words at any time.
D.Peer mediators can make disputants get a “win-win” result every time.
