第三部分：阅读理解 (共 15 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 30 分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、 B 、 C 和 D ）中．选出最佳选项．并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A Two brothers decided to dig a deep hole behind their house. As they were working, a couple of
older boys stopped by to watch.
“ What are you doing?” asked one of the visitors.
“ We plan to dig a hole all the way through the earth!” one of the brothers said excitedly. The older boys began to laugh, telling the younger ones that digging a hole all the way through the earth was impossible. After a long silence, one of the diggers picked up a jar full of spiders, worms and all kinds of other insects. He removed the lid and showed the wonderful contents to the scoffing(嘲笑)visitors. Then he said quietly and confidently, “Even if we don’t dig all the way through the earth, look what we found along the way!”
Their goal was far too ambitious, but it did cause them to dig. And that is what a goal is for — to cause us to move in the direction we have chosen; in other words, to set us to digging!
But not every goal will be fully achieved. Not every job will end successfully. Not every relationship will endure(长久持续). Not every dream will be realized. But when you fall short of your aim, perhaps you can say, “ Yes, but look at what I found along the way! Look at the wonderful things which have come into my life because I tried to do something!”
It is in the digging that life is lived. And I believe it is joy in the journey, in the end, that truly matters.
56. Which of the following is NOT the reason why the older boys laughed at the two brothers? A. The two brothers only dug out a lot of insects B. The two brothers lacked knowledge of the earth.
C. The two brothers were foolish. D. The two brothers had far too ambitious a goal.
57.What does the underlined part “when you fall short of your aim” probably mean?
A. When you are shorter than you expected B. When you have less than the amount than you wanted
C. When you fail to obtain what you expected D. When you miss the target you are aiming at 58. The passage is written to _____.
A. tell readers a story B. teach readers how to set a goal C. praise the two brothers D. teach readers a lesson 59. Which would be the best title for the passage?
A. Dig a Hole Through the Earth B. Joy in the Journey C. Realize Your Goal D. Don’t Laugh at Others
