Dear God，

    Now that I am no longer young，I have friends whose mothers have passed away．I have heard these sons and daughters say they never  2 1  appreciated their mothers until it was too  22  to tell them．

    I am  23  with the dear mother who is still allve．I appreciate her  24 each day．My mother does not  25  ，but I do．  26   I grow older and wiser．I realize what a(n)  27  person she is．How sad that I alil    28  to speak these words in her presence，29  they flow easily from my pen．

    How does a daughter begin to thank her mother for giving her llfe I  30’ For the love，patience and just plain hard work that go into  3 l  a child? For 32  a toddler，for understanding a moody teenager，for tolerating a college student who thinks she knows  33 ？ For waiting for the day  34  a daughter realizes her mother really is？

How does a    35    wonlan thank for a mother for continuing to be a mother？For being ready with advice (when asked ) or  36   silent when it is most appreciated? For not saying:”I  37you so ,”when she could have spoked these words dozens of  38    ?For being essentially herself-loving ,thoughtful. Patient, and forgiving?

I don’t know how，dear God，except to bless her as richly as she  39  and to help me live up to the example she has set．I pray that 1 will look as good in the eyes of my  40  as my mother looks in mine．

21-25 ACDBC 26-30 ADACB 31-35 CABBA 36-40 DBACB


解析:

21. A fully完全得，充分的；truly真正地；pinfully 痛苦的；mainly 主要的。此處表示：他們從沒有向母親充分表示過他們的感激之情，而待到要告訴時為時已晚了。

22.C 根據(jù)上下文可以判斷。

23．D  be satisfIed with對……滿意;be prepared for為…‘…做準(zhǔn)備_bc worried about為……擔(dān)心．be blessed with在．．．方面有福氣，幸運(yùn)地享有。母親依然健在，我幸運(yùn)地享有母愛。

24．B 對母親的感激之情是不可數(shù)的，排除D；此句表示：我對她的感情與日俱增。根據(jù)意思，排除A和C。

25．C此處表示：母親對我的愛沒變，而我對母親的愛卻變了。

26 A 此處表示：隨著年歲的增長。根據(jù)意思排除C和D；wih后面不能跟句子，排除B。

27 D ordinary普通的；usual通常的；strict嚴(yán)格的；extraordinary了不起的，非凡的。此處表示：我越來越懂事了，我認(rèn)識到她是個非常了不起的人。

28．A句意：這些話在她面前我難以啟齒，但在筆F卻可以輕易地寫出來，這令我感到多么難過。

29 C A因此；B否則，要不然；C但是；D然而，但是。根據(jù)意思排除A和B；而however需要和后面的句子之間用逗號隔開，故選c。

30．B句意：一個女兒該怎樣開口感謝她的母親所給予的生命?

31．C punish懲罰；blame責(zé)備；raise養(yǎng)育(孩子等)；praise表揚(yáng)。句意：感謝她在撫養(yǎng)孩子時所付出的愛、耐心以及無私的辛勤勞動。

32．A  run after追逐；run across偶爾遇見；run out跑出去；用完；run for競選。句意：感謝她跟在蹣跚學(xué)步的孩子身后奔跑。

33．B此處表示：對一個自以為什么都知道的大學(xué)生的寬容。

34．B此處是定語從句，關(guān)系詞在從句中作地點狀語，排除A和D；此處when=on witch。

35．A此處表示：一個成年女子該怎樣感谫}母親依然如故的角色?感恩母親跟女子的高興程度、受訓(xùn)練的程度，以及舉止得體與否沒有關(guān)系。文章整體強(qiáng)調(diào)的是隨著年齡增長，做女兒的對母愛體驗增強(qiáng)，并且日益感激。故A最合適。

36．D  A、B、C都是及物動詞，后面不跟形容詞，故排除；而remain是系動詞，符合意思。

37．B此處表示：感謝她沒有說：“我告訴過你，”而她本來可以說上許多次，這里強(qiáng)調(diào)母親對孩子的耐心。

38．A根據(jù)上下文可以判斷。

39．C句意：我不知道該怎樣來表達(dá)，親愛的上帝，除了請求你好好地保佑她——那是她該得到的——并幫助我朝她做出的榜樣看齊。

40．B句意：我祈愿在孩子的眼里我會如同母親在我眼里一般好。

A nine-year-old kid was sitting at his desk when suddenly there was a puddle (水坑) between his feet and the front of his trousers was wet.
