Hearing the front door open, I ran down to the kitchen and waited. I saw my dad come in, with the white envelope (信封) in his hand. I had waited all day for this, so I reached over him for it as soon as he set foot into the house. Angrily, he threw the envelope on the table and said it was nothing to get excited about, and that it was just a piece of paper. I took it and ran upstairs. I wondered why my dad did not understand how anxious (急切) I was to see my mid-year report card for my first year in middle school. I was really hurt by how he refused to consider all my hard work.
I saw my class grade: No. 1. I did not believe what I was. I smiled and wanted to run downstairs to tell everyone. Then I remembered what my dad had said—it was nothing to get excited about. I wanted to share my happiness with someone, but felt lonely.
I realized that I stayed away from my family we used to stay up late watching Disney movies, and my brothers, sisters and I would play tennis in the backyard all the time. I wondered when all that stopped. I just no longer took part in them. I spent all my time on my school work.
While I had been busy with my study, I had also built a wall between me and my family.
I was only trying to become a person everyone could be proud of. I wanted to go downstairs, say sorry for my rude behavior and for every refused movie and tennis game, and be part of my family again. I knew I had to do something—because without their support, my achievement meant nothing.t’s very clear that the writer did .

Lee Kuan Yew, former prime minister (前总理)of Singapore, died on Monday, March 23, 2015, at the age of 91, according to a statement released by the Prime Minister's Office.
Lee, a Cambridge-educated lawyer, is widely credited with building Singapore into one of the world's wealthiest nations. He co-founded(共同建立)the People's Action Party (PAP), which has ruled Singapore since 1959 and led the newly born country when it was separated from Malaysia in 1965.
In Beijing's eyes, Lee Kuan Yew, the late founding father and leader of Singapore, was not only "an old friend of the Chinese people", but also "the founder of China-Singapore relations", according to China's previous official news releases about his visits.
Chinese media(媒体)estimated that he had been to China more than 20 times, and he was known for his good personal relations with China's top figures, especially former leader Deng Xiaoping. Zhang Jiuhuan, the Chinese ambassador(大使) to Singapore from 2000 to 2004, noted that "it was a rare case" at the time that a foreign prime minister would visit China, as Lee did in 1976, in the absence of diplomatic relations(外交关系) between the two nations. Deng then paid back the visit, going to Singapore in 1978, in what Zhang described as a sensational trip.
Jin Canrong, a professor of international relations at Renmin University of China in Beijing, noted that Lee's No 1 contribution to China was his efforts in "sharing Singapore's successful experience in governance", adding that "China has benefited a lot" from this.
The China-Singapore Suzhou Industrial Park, inaugurated in February 1994 in Jiangsu province in East China, was proposed(提议)by Lee, who even went to the city in 1992 to inspect(视察)the site for the park.
Now, with the park serving as a role model for China's economic cooperation with foreign countries, more such industrial parks hosted or co-hosted by China have been established domestically and abroad.How long has the People's Action Party (PAP) ruled Singapore?
A.56. | B.50. | C.39. | D.37. |
What does the underlined word “rare” mean in Chinese?
A.稀薄的 | B.罕见的 |
C.半熟的 | D.常见的 |
According to the passage, which of the following is FALSE?
A.Lee passed away at the age of 91. |
B.Lee visited China in 1976. |
C.Lee had a good personal relation with Deng Xiaoping. |
D.The opening of the China-Singapore Suzhou Industrial Park was in February 1992. |
According to Jin Canrong, what is the biggest “gift” from Lee Kuan Yew?
A.He had been to China more than 20 times. |
B.He had a good personal relation with Deng Xiaoping. |
C.He proposed the China-Singapore Suzhou Industrial Park |
D.He shared Singapore's successful experience in governance with China. |
Where is the passage probably from?
A.A story book | B.A science book |
C.A newspaper | D.A magazine |
