I gave my first performance when I was ten. I’d been playing cello（大提琴）for two years at that point, as part of the music program. It was lucky that my school even had a cello, a very expensive instrument. When I told Mom and Dad that I was going to be a cellist, they both burst out 13 . Once they’d reali zed I was serious, they immediately put on supportive faces. I was eager to get a cello at that time, but they could only rent（租）one for me.
But their reaction still hurt me—in ways that I’m not sure they would’ve understood even if I had. Dad sometimes 14 that the hospital where I was born must have accidentally exchanged babies because I look nothing like the rest of my 15 . They are all blond and fair and with dark eyes. But as I got older, Dad’s hospital joke took on more meaning than I think he meant.
Then, it came to my first performance. Standing backstage, listening to other kids play the violin and piano, I’d almost 16 out. I’d run to stage door and hid outside. My teacher flew into a minor panic（惊慌）and sent out a search party.
Dad found m e. “You okay, Mia?” he asked, sitting down ne xt to me on the steps.
I shook my head, too 17 to talk.
“What’s up?”
“I can’t do it,” I cried.
Dad put a gentle arm around my shoulder. “You know that I used to get super nervous before a show.”
I looked at Dad, who always seemed completely sure of everything in the world. “You’re just saying that.”
He 18 his head. “No, I’m not. I w as the drummer, way in the back. No one even paid any attention to me.”
“He got wasted.”Mom interrupted. “He dropped hi s drumsticks and puked （呕吐）on s tage.”
Now I was laughing. I was still scared, but it was somehow 19 to think that maybe stage fright was something I got from Dad. I wasn’t just some foundling （弃儿）, after all.
“What if I mess it up? What if I’m terrible?”
“I’ve got news for you, Mia. There’s going to be all kinds of terrible things there, so you won’t really stand out.”
So I went on. I did n’t shine through the piece. I didn’t achieve a huge success, but I didn’t mess it up, either. And after the performance, I got my present. It was sitting in the passenger seat of the car, looking as human as that cello I’d been 20 to two year s earlier. It wasn’t a rental. It was mine.

三、阅读下列短文，根据短文内容，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选择最佳选项。（共28分，每小题2分）
A
Do you dream of becoming a lawyer, dentist or perhaps a librarian one day? Or would you like to consider one of these more unusual jobs?
Waterslide tester
Employed by the UK-based holiday company First
Choice, Tommy Lynch travels the world checking the
height, speed and water quality of the company’s waterslides. According to Tommy, he had always wanted to work in the holiday industry, but he hadn’t ever dreamt of getting paid to test waterslides! Tommy loves seeing the world and meeting new people, though he has to be willing to work hard – he travels over 43,000 kilometers each year.
Golf ball diver
Jeffrey Bleim’s job is to try to find lost golf balls. In
fact, he’s very good at it – he typically picks up more
than 5,000 a day! Wearing scuba gear, he dives into
ponds to get the lost balls, which he later sells to a
recycling company. What personal quality does a golf
ball diver need to have? Jeffrey thinks you must be used
to working outdoors. Also, since you don’t have a boss, it’s important to be
self-motivated.
Performance artist
Wai Shui-kwan is a master of the art of
face-changing or bian lian. Wai had been an actor in
Sichuan opera for some years before he decided to try
enlarging his performance field to include bian lian. Now
he can switch coloured masks at lightning speed – over
fifty within a five-minute performance without stopping to rest! Although there is no magic involved（涉及）in this ancient art, says Wai, he needs to have the skills of a magician.

Unexpected friendship
There’s a small brick house I visit from time to time. It’s not the house that is special, but rather the person who lives inside.
I met Miss C about 45 years ago when she was my sister’s kindergarten teacher.
I remember looking into her classroom wishing I was her student. Miss C created a safe place where we could be whatever we wanted to be in that moment. My parents reassured (安抚) me I could start school when I was 4. Though, when I turned 4 in the spring, I couldn’t understand why I had to wait until September.
For as long as I can remember, I’ve wanted to be a tea cher. When I graduated, I couldn’t wait to invite Miss C to my classroom. She arrived one day, and I saw joy on my students’ faces singing the same songs I sang with her as a child. As a new teacher, I was amazed by how she connected with children. For years, Miss C volunteered in my classroom.
Over the years we have shared in each other’s ups and downs. She asks me for updates about my family and friends, and she tells me about hers.
I am here for her now as the time to sell her house is near. I bring up boxes from her basement. We go through every painting a student has given her, every thank-you note a parent has written and her teaching aids (教具).
I find papers featuring the letters of the alphabet. I find my own name printed in green marker. Suddenly, my mind goes back to Room 3.
More than 40 years ago, Miss C sat on a chair while my classmates, and I sat on the carpet (地毯) at her feet. We learned about the letters and their sounds. Now, Miss C sits on her rocking chair (摇椅), and I find myself sitting at her feet. Over tea, we talk for hours. I listen intently because I know I still have more to learn from her.
Our friendship is one that neither one of us expected.
Educators know teaching is a profession devoted to the development of young individuals. The lucky ones get to see what their students have done with their lives. The exceptional ones never leave their students’ hearts.
24.45 years ago, ___________.
A. I started school with my sister
B. Miss C taught my sister and me
C. I wished to be Miss C’s student
D. Miss C often visited my house
25.After I graduated, ___________.
A. Miss C invited me to her class
B. I volunteered in Miss C’s classroom
C. I could connect with my students very well
D. Miss C and I developed unexpected friendship
