河北省定州市2016-2017学年高一英语下学期周练试题（4.9） 一、阅读理解 Today marks the one-year anniversary of my father’s death. Looking back at the past year, I cannot describe how hard it has been for me mentally and physically. For a long time I suffered in silence. I felt as if I was running in circles(圆圈). I kept my tears to my sleep and my loneliness in my bedroom. After my father’s death, I began channeling all that pain into dance. But as a fairly new dancer, I haven’t had too much stage experience. I recently performed at my school’s winter concert for one of my classmates who is dealing with a rare illness. I dedicated(献上)the dance to her and my father. I only had one week. I was so anxious that I felt like I was having a heart attack. Luckily, my best friends came to my aid. What they said to me was one of the kindest things anyone has ever said. I will never forget what one of them said: “You are so beautiful because of your heart and beautiful mind. You have more kindness than some will ever have. I saw how much that dance meant to you, especially how it connected with your memories. It made me cry, that is how incredible you are.” Just surround（环绕）yourself with people like my friend who will never think little of you. I am so proud of how much I’ve achieved and I know I will keep going, just as my father would have wished. 1．What can we learn about the author from Paragraph 3? A. She had no gift for dancing B.
