| 阅读下面的短文，然后以约30个词概括故事的主要情节。 | An old man went to live with his son, daughter-in-law, and four-year-old grandson. The family ate together
at the table, but his shaky hands and failing sight made eating difficult. Peas rolled off his spoon onto the floor.
When he grasped the glass, milk spilled on the tablecloth. The son and daughter-in-law became angry with the
mess. So they set a small table in the corner. There Grandfather ate alone while they enjoyed dinner.
Since Grandfather had broken a dish or two, his food was served in a wooden bowl. Still, the only words
the couple had for him were sharp when he dropped a fork or spilled food. The grandson watched silently.
One evening, the father noticed the son playing with wood scraps (:small piece) and asked the child sweetly,
"What are you making?" The boy responded, "Oh, I am making a bowl for you and mum to eat your food in
when I grow up."
The words struck the parents so hard that they were speechless. Then tears started to stream down their
cheeks. The son took gently and led Grandfather back to their table. From then on, he ate every meal with them.
Neither of them seemed to care any longer when a fork was dropped, milk spilled, or the tablecloth soiled. | _______________________________________________________________________________________

Christmas gifts because there was not enough money. I felt sad and thought, "What would I say when the
other kids asked what I"d 2 ?" Just when I started to 3 that there would not be a Christmas that year,
three women 4 at our house with gifts for all of us. For me they brought a doll, I felt such a sense of
5 that I would no longer have to be embarrassed when I returned to school. I wasn"t 6 . Somebody
had thought 7 of me to bring me a gift.
Years later, when I stood in the kitchen of my new house, thinking how I wanted to make my 8

create that same feeling of 10 for as many children as I could possibly reach.
So I 11 a plan and gathered forty people from my company to help. We gathered about 125 orphans
(孤儿) at the Christmas party. For every child, we wrapped colorful packages filled with toys, clothes, and
school suppliers, 12 with a child"s name. We wanted all of them to know they were 13 . Before I called

child had come forward. Finally the 16 they had been waiting for came as I called out, "One, two, three.
Open your presents!" As the children opened their packages, their faces beamed and their bright smiles 17

D. from | | 阅读理解。 | When I was growing up in America, I was ashamed of my mother"s Chinese English. Because of her
English, she was often treated unfairly. People in department stores, at banks, and at restaurants did not take
her seriously, did not give her good service, pretended not to understand her, or even acted as if they did not
hear her.
My mother has realized the limitations of her English as well. When I was fifteen, she used to have me
call people on phone to pretend I was she. I was forced to ask for information or even to yell at people who
had been rude to her. One time I had to call her stockbroker (股票经纪人). I said in an adolescent (青春期的)
voice that was not very convincing, "This is Mrs. Tan.."
And my mother was standing beside me, whispering loudly, "Why he don"t send me check already two
week late." And then, in perfect English I said:"I"m getting rather concerned. You agreed to send the check
two weeks ago, but it hasn"t arrived."
Then she talked more loudly. "What he want? I come to New York tell him front of his boss." And so I
turned to the stockbroker again, "I can"t tolerate any more excuse. If I don"t receive the check immediately,
I am going to have to speak to your manager when I am in New York next week." The next week we ended
up in New York. While I was sitting there red-faced, my mother, the real Mrs.Tan, was shouting to his boss
in her broken English.
When I was a teenager, my mother"s broken English embarrassed me. But now, I see it differently. To me,
my mother"s English is perfectly clear, perfectly natural. It is my mother tongue. Her language, as I hear it, is
vivid, direct, and full of observation and wisdom. It was the language that helped shape the way I saw things,
expressed ideas, and made sense of the world. | | 1. Why was the author"s mother poorly served? | | [ ] | A. She was unable to speak good English.
B. She was often misunderstood.
C. She was not clearly heard.
D. She was not very polite. | | 2. From Paragraph 2, we know that the author was _____. | | [ ] | A. good at pretending
B. rude to the stockbroker
C. ready to help her mother
D. unwilling to phone for her mother | | 3. After the author made the phone call, _____. | | [ ] | A. they forgave the stockbroker
B. they failed to get the check
C. they went to New York immediately
D. they spoke to their boss at once | | 4. What does the author think of her mother"s English now? | | [ ] | A. It confuses her.
B. It embarrasses her.
C. It helps her understand the world.
D. It helps her tolerate rude people. | | 阅读理解。 | I was very disappointed not to be able to go to the jazz concert last Friday. The announcement in the paper
said that you could buy tickets at the theater box office in Richland Hills any day between 10:00 and 4:00. Since
I work from 9 o"clock to 5:30, the only time I could go to the theater was during my 45-minute lunch break.
Unfortunately, the theater is on the other side of the town, and the bus service between my office and Richland
Hills is not very good. But if you are lucky, you can make the round trip in 45 minutes. Last Monday, I stood at
the bus stop for fifteen minutes waiting for a bus. By the time I saw one come around the corner, there was not
enough time left to make the trip-so I gave up and went back to the office. The same thing happened on Tuesda
y, and again on Wednesday. On Thursday, my luck changed, I got on a bus right away and arrived at the theatre
in exactly twenty minutes. When I got there, however, I found a long line of people at the box office. I heard
one man say he had been waiting in line for over an hour. Realizing I would not have enough time to wait in line,
I caught the next bus and headed back across the town. By Friday I realized my only hope was to make the trip
by taxi. It was expensive, but I felt it would be worth hearing the concert. The trip by taxi only took 10 minutes,
but it felt like an hour to me. When I got to the theatre, I was relieved to see that nobody was waiting in line.
The reason, I quickly discovered, was that they had already sold all the tickets. | | 1. The writer is probably _____. | | [ ] | A. worker
B. a college teacher
C. manager of a company
D. a clerk | | 2. He learned _____ that there would be a concert last Friday. | | [ ] | A. from his friends
B. from one of his colleagues
C. over the radio
D. from the newspaper | | 3. He could go and buy the ticket _____. | | [ ] | A. any day before work hours
B. both before and after work hours
C. only during lunch time
D. on Saturday and Sunday | | 4. The word "relieved" in the last two sentences may best be replaced by "_____". | | [ ] | A. surprised
B. pleased
C. puzzled
D. sorry | | 5. The story is about _____. | | [ ] | A. a good concert
B. someone enjoying a good concert
C. someone trying to buy concert tickets for his friends
D. someone"s disappointment at not being able to go to the concert | 最新试题
