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（有野心的）, 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.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 a far too ambitious goal. |
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（得到）what you expected |
| D．When you miss the target you are aiming at |
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 |
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 |

I will always remember my mother’s last days in this world.

After that, we went to the hospital and waited. Time went slowly. Finally, we got to see our mother. It was terrible.
On the next day, the headmaster came and told my two teachers what had happened. I was taking a test that day. I knew it had something to do with my mother.
