The girl smiled, and so did I.

I never heard her play again in my life. I no longer went downstairs to listen like before. Only thick leaves were left behind. But I will always remember the fine figure (身影) of the girl. She is like a 50 —so short, so bright, like a shooting star giving off so much light that it makes the autumn beautiful.

第三部分：阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40）

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最When I was in my second

佳选项。

A

"BANG!" the door caused a reverberation(回声). It was just standing there, with Father standing on one side, and I on the other side.

We were both in great anger. "Never set foot in this house again!" stormed Father. With tears welling up in my eyes, I rushed out of the flat and ran along the street.

The street lights were shining rather desolately(凄凉的). I wandered（徘徊）aimlessly.

A young father who held a child in his arms walked past me. I felt as if I saw my childhood from another space: happy and harmonious.

Whenever I do something wrong, he never turns a blind eye to it. We are just like two people coming from two different worlds. It feels like there is an iron door between us that can never be opened.

In fact, it was nothing. Perhaps, dad was throwing away some of his old stamps. Perhaps he thought they were useless. I never had the courage to tell him that I liked collecting stamps. I can't stand his outrageous(蛮横的) words: " I can throw you away, let alone these old papers."

All the lights were off
