阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A Mountain of Green Beans
Another envelope in the mail. There’s my name, Alexander Spencer, typed on the front. I throw it under the bed. The piles of envelopes are growing.
The envelopes were applications to all the colleges I was supposed to attend. I did open the first envelope. Then I saw the application, all those blank spaces I was supposed to fill with my own writing, spaces for my name and birth date and grade average and … statement of purpose. I looked at them for a long time. I could write for hours and not fill all those spaces. So I put the application back in the envelope. I would fill it out the next day, when I had time. But another envelope arrived. And then the pile began.
The pile scares me — it is really like a monster. All the while, I feel the weight of a million envelopes raining down on my head until my grandmother calls me and wants to know how I am. “I am overcome by too many tasks,” I say.
“Honey, you just take it bit by bit,” she says, and she reminds me about the green beans.
When I was a little kid I hated green beans. But my mom said I couldn’t leave the table until I ate ten green beans. All alone at the table, I stared at the green beans for what seemed like hours. It was a mountain of green beans. I couldn’t do it.
My grandma came to me and asked if I could eat one green bean. “But Grandma, I have to eat ten!”
She said all I had to do was to eat one green bean. One tiny little green bean. So I ate one. It was bad, but not as bad as I’d thought it would be. Then she asked me again if I could eat one. So I ate one green bean nine more times.
My grandma doesn’t know about the envelopes, but she tells me anyone can do one thing every day. Back in my room, I lay down on the bed. Just like I used to do when I was a little kid, I hang my head down to look at the pile of envelopes. There it is. But instead of a monster, I see a pile of green beans. Who’s afraid of green beans?
1. Envelopes are piling up because the author _______. A. B. C. D.
doesn’t know how to reply feels bored of the paper work doesn’t want to attend college has been too busy to open them
2. What does the author learn from the story of the green beans? A. A good start is half done. B. Actions speak louder than words. C. A long journey begins with a single step. D. All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. 3. What do you think the author will do next? A. He will fill out the applications one after another. B. He will go to the college that he dreams of. C. He will throw away all the envelopes. D. He will eat up the green beans.
