Question

【題目】

Dear Sherry, I am very short. I want to be taller, I have tried jumping up and down and swimming, but none of these things have made me taller. My classmates laugh at me. I think my height is a serious problem. What should I do? Yours Mike

Dear Mike To be honest, you can only do your best to exercise, eat well, sleep well and hope for the best. After all, how tall you can grow mostly depends on your genes (基因). I've been short for pretty much my whole life and a lot of people have made fun of me for it. But the thing is, it doesn't really matter that much. I know it hurts when your classmates make fun of you, but this will happen less often as you grow up. There will always be some people who will judge(評判) you based on(基于) your height. But there isn't anything you can do to change their minds, And if someone thinks less of you because of your height. They’re probably not someone who is worth getting to know anyway. Love yourself for who you are— you're the only you there is. Yours, Sherry

【解析】

本文是兩封郵件往來。Mike遇到了問題，他覺得自己的身高是大問題，Sherry在回信中講了自己的看法，并給出了建議。

【1】推理判斷題。根據“I think my height is a serious problem. What should I do?”可知，本文主要是Mike講述自己遇到的問題，并尋求建議和幫助。因此我們能在青少年問題的雜志上看到這兩封信。故選A。

【2】細節(jié)理解題。根據第一封信中的“I think my height is a serious problem.”我認為我的身高是一個大問題，故選B。

【3】細節(jié)理解題。根據“After all, how tall you can grow mostly depends on your genes (基因).”畢竟，你能長多高，大部分取決于你的基因。故選A。

【4】詞義猜測題。根據“And if someone thinks less of you because of your height.”如果有人因為你的身高而輕視你。可知，他們可能不值得你去認識。因此worth是“值得”的意思。故選A

【5】細節(jié)理解題。根據第二封信最后“Love yourself for who you are-— you're the only you there is.”愛你自己，因為你是唯一的你。故選C。
