“I’ve changed my mind.I wanted to have a telescope，but now I want my dad back.” Lucien Lawrence’s letter to his father for Christmas written after his father had been knifed to death outside his school gate，must have touched everyone’s heart.Lucien went on to say that without his father he couldn’t see the stars in the sky.When those whom we love depart from us，we cannot see the stars for a while.

But Lucien，the stars are still there，and one day，when you are older and your tears have gone，you will see them again.And，in a strange way，I expect that you will find your father there，too，in your mind and heart.I find that my parents，who died years ago，still figure in many of my dreams and that I think of them perhaps more than I ever did when they were alive.I still live to please them and I’m still surprised by their reactions.I remember that when I became a professor，I was so proud，or rather so pleased with myself that I couldn’t wait to cable my parents.The reply was a long time in coming，but when it did，all my mother said was “I hope this means that now you will have more time for the children！” I haven’t forgotten.The values of my parents still live on.

It makes me pause and think about how I will live on in the hearts and minds of my children and of those for whom I care.Would I have been as ready as Philip Lawrence have been to face the aggressors，and to lay down my life for those in my care？How many people would want me back for Christmas？It’s a serious thought，one to give me pause.

I pray silently，sometimes，in the dead of night，that ancient cry of a poet “Deliver my soul from the sword，and my darling from the power of the dog.” Yet I know the death comes to us all，and sometimes comes suddenly.We must therefore plan to live forever，but live as if we will die tomorrow.We live on，I’m sure，in the lives of those we love，and therefore we ought to have a care for what they will remember and what they will treasure.If more parents knew this in their hearts to be true，there might be fewer knives on our streets today.

試題分析：

【1】推理判斷題。第一段從一個孩子的一封信談起，下文則動之以情，曉之以理，娓娓道來，委婉地糾正了孩子的觀點，由此可知第一段在文中的作用是引出話題。

【2】段落大意題。作者在本段不惜筆墨，用自己的親身體會傾訴了對父母的懷念之情以及父母對自己的深刻影響，再結(jié)合本段最后一句的內(nèi)容可知，B項正確。

【3】推理判斷題。作者因成為教授而非常自豪，無比高興，迫不及待地想要把這個好消息告訴父母，可是母親卻委婉地提醒作者要多花點時間陪陪孩子，由此可推知，她很擔心。

【4】推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段第一句的內(nèi)容以及最后一段后半部分的內(nèi)容可推知，作者認為人生的價值在于給自己愛和在乎的人留下珍貴的回憶。

【5】推理判斷題。詩歌的大意是“求你救我的靈魂脫離刀劍，救我的生命脫離犬類”，而且作者是在深夜中祈禱，再結(jié)合本段后半部分的內(nèi)容可推知，作者引用該詩句意在讓社會遠離暴力和謀殺。
