三、阅读理解(每小题2分, 共10分)
For many girls, having long beautiful hair is something to be proud of. Rachel Barrett, 15, recently cut her long hair and looked like a boy. But she was also proud of herself. She donated(捐赠)her hair to a charity(慈善机构)and raised a lot of money.
Barrett is a middle school student in Britain. On Nov. 16 at her school's talent contest, Barrett had her hair cut off in front of around 300 students. The hair would be used to make wigs(假发)for children with cancer. She has raised several thousand pounds and the money will help people with breast cancer(癌症).
Barrett got the idea when she visited her friend's mom with cancer. “All of her hair had fallen out, and it really made me want to do something,” Barrett said.
When she found out that the charity Little Princess Trust could make wigs for children with cancer, she decided to donate her own hair, even though she loved it.
“I saw how sad it was for my friend's mom to lose her hair. So if my hair can go to help a young child with cancer then it's worth it, ” she said.
Cathy Stanton, a teacher, felt proud of the girl. “She's always been very well groomed(整洁且衣着得体的), so for her to cut all her hair off really moves us, ” she said. “She has done a moving job.” Many students were moved by her courage and donated money.

A. Because she liked short hair very much.
B. Because her school didn't allow her to have long hair.
C. Because she wanted to help some children with cancer.

四、任务型阅读(每小题1. 5分, 共15分)
阅读下列短文, 根据短文内容填写表格(每空限填一词)
How do you feel when you have to make a speech in front of class? How do you feel when you go to a birthday party? Do you get really shy?
Shyness means feeling nervous or frightened when you're around other people. Experts(专家)have found that more than 80 percent of middle school students feel afraid to be the center of attention. Some kids are born shy. Some become shy later because of their life experiences.
It's OK if it takes you a while to feel yourself again when you go to a new place or meet new people. In fact, everybody gets a little shy sometimes. It's just a case of how much.
Most people have red faces and talk in broken sentences when they get shy. But some become so shy that they won't go to a restaurant because they are too nervous to order and pay the bill(账单). Some are afraid of meeting new people, so they seldom go outside. This kind of shyness can be bad for a person.
If shyness doesn't stop you from doing something you want to do, being shy isn't a very big problem. Some experts say shy people are quieter and cleverer because they think more and talk less. Shy people are also good at working with others because they think more for other people. Some great people in history were shy, too.
You see, being shy isn't all bad. But remember not to let good chances pass by just because of it! If you have to sing a song at a birthday party or practice your spoken English in front of others, just do it! There's nothing to be afraid of.
