阅读理解。     Every year on my birthday, from the time I turned 12, a white gardenia (栀子花) was sent to my house.
It did not come with a card or note of any kind, but I loved the beauty and sweet smell of the flower.
     And I never stopped imaging who the giver might be. My mother helped me to imagine. She"d ask me if
I had done something kind for anyone. Perhaps the neighbor I"d helped carry heavy bags for, or one of my
classmates who I helped the lessons with. As a teenager, though, I had more fun thinking that it might be a
boy I liked at school.
     When I was 17, a boy broke my heart and I cried myself to sleep. When I woke up in the morning, there
was a message on my mirror, "If we let sadness go, happiness will surely come to you." I thought about those
words for a long time. When I finally went to get the glass cleaner, my mother knew everything was all right
again.
  
     One month before I finished high school, my father left us forever. I lost interest in all the celebrating
activities such as the class play, taking photos with classmates before leaving the high school where I had
studied for three years. Although my mother was very sad, she still encouraged me to take part in all those.
She wanted her child to have a sense that there was still beauty in the face of bad luck, just like the
gardenia-lovely, strong and perfect.
     My mother died 10 days after I was married. I was 26. That was the year gardenias stopped coming. 1. From the age of ________, the writer began to receive a gardenia every year on her birthday. A. 17
B. 12
C. 26
D. 10 2. What can we infer (推断) from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3? A. Mother was clever.
B. I was still sad.
C. The glass was dirty.
D. Mother really understood me. 3. The writer lost interest in activities before leaving high school because ________. A. no flowers were sent to her
B. a boy broke her hear
C. her father died
D. there was no beauty in her life 4. In fact it was ________ who sent the flowers. A. the writer"s father
B. the writer"s mother
C. a boy classmate
D. one of the neighbors 5. The passage mainly talks about ________.A. mother"s love
B. the writer"s bad luck
C. teenagers" problems while growing up
D. how to pace difficulties

     "You know, these cups brings to my mind a story I heard," Mary said to her students.
      She poured some tea. There were four of them and there were four completely different cups on the
tables.
     "I heard there was a teacher who took all his students for tea. His students were surprised that all the
cups on the table were different. They all took a cup and started drinking their tea, each looking at the cups
of others. The teacher said, "Did you notice your behavior? You are all looking at each other"s tea cup and
some of you even envy (羡慕) the finer cups of others."
     "I put the different cups here on purpose. I want to say life is like this tea. You all have the same thing in
your cups--tea. And yet you cannot truly enjoy it in your envy of another"s cup. You forget to enjoy your own
life when you envy someone else"s life. We all have the same thing--life. We should care more about the tastes
of your own life. So now, taste your own tea. Does it matter from which cup it came from?" Mary finished
telling her story and her students all sat in silence for a while, enjoying their tea. And it really did not matter
a bit from which teacup they drank.
