I had just gone to bed after a very hard day when the phone rang. It was an eccentric(怪僻的) farmer. I had never met him before although I had heard people talk about him. He sounded quite nervous and he had been talking for a minute or so before I understood anything. Even then all I could make out was that someone called Milly had had a very bad accident. I hadn't the slightest idea who she was but I obviously had to go.
It had been snowing heavily that day and I didn't know the way. I had been driving for at least an hour when I finally found his place. He was standing there, waiting for me. "She meant more to me than anyone... even my own wife!" he said. I could see that he had been crying. I thought something terrible had taken place, a possible scandal(丑闻). I was even more shocked when he told me he had put her in the barn(厩)"I wouldn't leave here out in the cold!" he said.
Milly had clearly been a secret lover of his. I was about to tell him he could not expect me to cover anything up when he opened the barn door. He lifted his candle and I saw a dark figure on the ground. "She was such a good cow! I wouldn't let anyone but a doctor touch her!" he said, and burst into tears again.
The underlined phrase make out in the first paragraph means ______.
A.expect
B.see clearly
C.hear clearly
D.understand
Mr. White lived in a small village(怀特先生住在一个小乡村里). His parents hadn't enough money to send him to school. He had to help them to do something in the fields. But he didn't like to live in the poor place. When he was sixteen, he got to the town and found work in a factory. Three years later he became tall and strong. So he was sent to Africa as a soldier. He stayed there for five years and got some money. Then he came back to England and bought a shop in a small town. No people in the town went to Africa except him. And he hoped they thought he was a famous man and that they could respect him. The children often asked him to tell them some stories and his life in Africa.
One day a few children asked him to tell them something about the animals in Africa. He told them how he fought with the tigers and elephants. His stories surprised them all and some policemen and workers went to listen to him. It made him happier. Just a man who taught geography in a middle school passed there. He stopped to listen to him for a while and then said, "Could you please tell us a rare animal, sir?"
"Certainly," said Mr. Turner. "One day I met a rhinoceros(犀牛) by a river…"
"Please wait a minute, sir," said the man. "There aren't any rhinoceros in Africa at all!"
"It's rare just because there aren't any!"

In the playground Bob showed me the watch. He put it on his wrist, and it looked love ly. I wished I had been the one to sit by the table. It was really a beautiful watch, gold by the look of it. The headmaster came outside then, and the doctor was with him. They walked about, looking around and talking all the time. After a while the bell rang, and we got into our lines, ready to go in.
The headmaster said, "I've got a little job for boys. This doctor, who was giving us a talk just now, has lost his watch in the playground. It happened before, he says- it just slips off his wrist. So look around for it, will you? See if you're clever enough to find it. I promise that the boy who does so will get a useful reward."
Of course, Bob was not going to miss a chance like that. He's just about the luckiest boy in the school rewards just drop into his hands. We all walked about the playground, looking here and there for the watch. And I wasn't at all surprised when Bob bent down as if he was picking something up. Then he hurried past me towards the doctor.
"Where are you going?" I called out, though I knew very well where he was going. The next minute there was Bob, all smiles, handing over the watch to the old doctor and hanging about for the reward.
But the doctor did not seem at all pleased. In fact he looked quite ready to thrust (插入) a knife in Bob's heart-until the headmaster burst out laughing. Bob told me later the old man hadn't even said "Thank you" for the watch.
The thing that puzzled us most of all was that Bob didn't get any reward. When he mentioned to the headmaster about k, the old man said, "Ah, yes, we mustn't forget that. I said ' a useful re ward' , didn't I?" Then he gave Bob a big sheet of paper and told him to write a composition on the harm of smoking. Bob says he hasn't got any idea of what to write.
While the doctor was talking about the harm to smoking, the two boys were______.
A.not thinking about anything
B.thinking about the harm of smoking
C.thinking about the watch and how to get it, perhaps
D.thinking that the headmaster was very clever
Mrs. Green, Danny's teacher, was concerned a lot. "I didn't know that Danny was being picked on," she nswered. "He's never said anything about this to me!" Mrs. Green looked at Danny. "How long has this been going on?" She asked. Danny could only shake his head and look at the floor. He knew if he said a word about this, he would have trouble after school.
Danny hadn't said anything about the problem because he wanted to play with the boys in the neighborhood. After all, most of them were nice to him. He hated to leave the gang just because of Rick. Maybe the time had come to find new friends. He felt it hard to make up his mind.
We learn from the reading that______.
A.Danny was not a good student
B.Danny's mother talked too much about the school
C.Danny's teacher knew something about Danny's problem before
D.Danny wanted to get away from Rick
