After a quick supper he goes to bed and soon falls asleep. His grandma who lives downstairs is pleased with him.
　　One day, on his way home, he met his friend Mary. They were both happy. He asked the girl to his house, and she agreed happily. He bought some fruit and drinks for her. And they talked about their school, teachers, classmates and their future. They talked for a long time.

（B）
I often dreamed about Paris when I was a boy. I read about the famous building called the Leaning Tower of Pisa.(比萨斜塔) But when I read the word Pisa, I was thinking of Pisa. I thought this tower was a place to buy pizza. It must be the best place to buy pizza in the world, I thought.
Many years later, I finally saw the Leaning Tower. I knew then that it was Pisa, not pizza. But there was still something special about it for me. The tower got its name because it really does lean to one side. Some people want to mend it. They are afraid it may fall over and they don’t like it to lean over the city.
I don’t think it’s a good idea to try to mend it. The tower probably will not fall down. It is 600 years old. Why should anything happy to it now? And if you ask me, I like what it looks like. To me it is a very human kind of leaning. Nothing is perfect, it seems to say.
And who cares? Why do people want things to be perfect? Imperfect(有缺点的) things may be more interesting. Let’s take the tower in Pisa for example. Why is it so famous? There are many other older, more beautiful towers in Italy. But Pisa Tower is the most famous. People come from all over the world to see it.
( ) 11. This passage is about _____.
A. Italian pizza B. Italy’s problems
C. how the Leaning Tower of Pisa got its name D. why the writer likes Pisa
( ) 12. The writer used to think Pisa ______.
A in Spain B. not very famous C. different from pizza D. the same as pizza
( ) 13.The Leaning Tower of Pisa is _____.
A. modern B. falling down C. 600years D. 60years
( ) 14. The writer ______.
A. doesn’t like what the tower looks like B. likes what the tower looks like
C. thinks it’s the most beautiful tower in Italy D. doesn’t like towers.
( ) 15. The writer likes the Leaning Tower of Pisa because _______.
A. it’s old B. it’s perfect C. it sells pizza D. it’s imperfect
