Ⅱ.閱讀理解
About this time every year, I get very nostalgic(懷舊的)．Walking through my neighborhood on a fall afternoon reminds me of a time not too long ago when sounds of children filled the air，children playing games on a hill, and throwing leaves around in the street below. I was one of those children, carefree and happy. I live on a street that is only one block long. I have lived on the same street for sixteen years. I love my street. One side has six houses on it, and the other has only two houses, with a small hill in the middle and a huge cottonwood tree on one end.When I think of home, I think of my street. Only I see it as it was before. Unfortunately things change. One day, not long ago, I looked around and saw how different everything has become.Life on my street will never be the same because neighbors are quickly grown old, friends are growing up and leaving, and the city is planning to destroy my precious hill and sell the property to
contractors.
It is hard for me to accept that many of my wonderful neighbors are growing old and won't be around much longer. I have fond memories of the couple across the street, who sat together on their porch swing almost every evening, the widow next door who yelled at my brother and me for being too loud, and the crazy old man in a black suit who drove an old car. In contrast to these people, the people I see today are very old neighbors who have seen better days. The man in the black suit says he wants to die, and another neighbor just sold his house and moved into a nursing home. The lady who used to yell at us is too tired to bother any more, and the couple across the street rarely go out to their front porch these days. It is difficult to watch these precious people as they near the end of their lives because at once I thought they would live forever.
The “comings and goings” of the younger generation of my street are now mostly “goings”as friends and peers move on. Once upon a time, my life and the lives of my peers revolved around home. The boundary of our world was the gutter at the end of the street. We got pleasure from playing night games or from a breathtaking ride on a tricycle. Things are different now, as my friends become adults and move on. Children who rode tricycles now drive cars. The kids who once played with me now have new interests and values as they go their separate ways. Some have gone away to college like me, a few got married, two went into the army, and one went to prison. Watching all these people grow up and go away makes me long for the good old days.
Perhaps the biggest change on my street is the fact that the city is going to turn my precious
hill into several lots for now homes. For sixteen years, the view out of my kitchen window has
been a view of that hill. The hill was a fundamental part of my childhood life; it was the hub of
social activity for the children of my street. We spent hours there building forts, sledding, and
playing tag. The view out of my kitchen window now is very different; it is one of tractors and
dump trucks tearing up the hill. When the hill goes, the neighborhood will not be the same. It is
a piece of my childhood. It is a visual reminder of being a kid. Without the hill, my_street_will_be__just_another_pea_in_the_pod.
There was a time when my street was my world, and I thought my world would never
change. But something happened. People grow up, and people grow old. Places changes, and
with the change comes the heartache of knowing I can never go back to the times I loved. In a
year or so, I will be gone just like many of my neighbors. I will always look back to my years as
a child, but the place I remember will not be the silent street whose peace is interrupted by the
sounds of construction. It will be the happy, noisy, somewhat strange, but wonderful street I
knew as a child.
【語篇解讀】 本文是一篇記敘文。秋日午后，“我”漫步街頭，回想起孩提時的歡笑；而今許多鄰居在變老，朋友長大成人并離“我”而去，街道也將面臨開發：屋后的山已經被人承包，整個街道將不再是“我”以前的街道。
