Once on a dark winter’s day, when the yellow fog hung so thick and heavy in the streets of London that the

lamps were lighted and the shop windows blazed with gas as they do at night, a Little girl sat in a cab with her

father and was driven rather slowly through the big thoroughfares.

She leaned against her father, who held her in his arm, as she stared out of the window at the passing people

with a queer (strange, odd) old-fashioned thoughtfulness in her big eyes.

Principally, she was thinking of what a queer thing it was that at one time one was in India in the blazing sun,

and then in the middle of the ocean, and then driving in a strange vehicle through strange streets where the day was

as dark as the night. She found this so puzzling that she moved closer to her father.

“What is it. darling?” Captain Crewe asked, holding her closer and looking down into her face.

During her short life only one thing had troubled her, and that thing was “the place” she was to be taken to

some day. The climate of India was very bad for children, and as soon as possible they were sent away from it-

generally to England and to school. She bad seen other children go away, and had heard their fathers and mothers

talk about the letters they received from them1. She had known that she would be obliged to go also, and though

sometimes her father’s stories of the voyage and the new country had attracted her, she had been troubled by the

thought that he could not stay with her.

She had liked to think of that. To keep the house for her father; to ride with him, and sit at the head of his table

when he had dinner parties; to talk to him and read his books - that would be what she would like most in the

world, and if one must go away to “the place“ in England to attain it, she must make up her mind to go. She did not

care very much for other little girls, but if she had plenty of books she could console herself.

It was a big, dull, brick house, exactly like all the others in its row, but that on the front door there shone a

brass plate on which was engraved in black letters:

MISS MINCHIN, Select Seminary for Young Ladies.

“I don’t like it, papa, ” she said. “But then I dare say soldiers - even brave ones-don’t really like going into

battle. ” Sara stood quietly, with her eyes fixed upon Miss Minchin’s face. She was thinking something odd, as

usual.

4. What can we learn from the story?

A. Sara was bothered by her departure from her father.

B. Sara was about to be sent to London for a completely new life.

C. Sara was thinking of a way to escape being sent to a foreign country.

D. Sara was persuaded to receive further education in a prestigious school.

5. What does the underlined word “console“ in Paragraph 6 probably mean?

A. entertain B. occupy

C. comfort D. improve

6. What does Sara probably think of her’ future in the new place?

A. She didn’t mind living with other girls.

B. She hated the idea of living independently.

C. She was positive about the new life at school.

D. She was confident to adapt to the new environment.
