科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2013屆廣東省東莞市高二下學(xué)期第一次月考英語(yǔ)試題 題型：閱讀理解

I’ve loved my mother’s desk since I was just tall enough to see above the top of it as Mother sat doing letters(學(xué)問(wèn)). Standing by her chair, looking at the ink bottle, pens, and white paper, I decided that the act of writing must be the most wonderful thing in the world.

Years later, during her final illness, Mother kept different things for my sister and brother. “But the desk”, she said again, “is for Elizabeth.” I never saw her anger, never saw her cry. I knew she loved me; she showed it in action. But as a young girl, I wanted heart-to-heart talks between mother and daughter. They never happened. And a gulf opened between us. I was too emotional. But she lived “on the surface”.

As years passed, I had my own family. I loved my mother and thanked her for our happy family. I wrote to her in careful words and asked her to let me know in any way she chose that she did forgive（原諒）me. I posted the letter and waited for her answer. None came. My hope turned to disappointment, then little interest and, finally, peace-it seemed that nothing happened. I couldn’t be sure that the letter had even got to Mother. I only knew that I had written in, and I could stop trying to make her into someone she was not.

Now the present of her desk told me, as she’d never been able to, that she was pleased that writing was my chosen work. I cleaned the desk carefully and found some papers inside－a photo of my father and a one-page letter, folded and refolded many times. Give me an answer, my letter asks, in any way you chose. Mother, you always chose the act that speaks louder than words.

1.The writer began to love her mother’s desk _______.

A．a(chǎn)fter Mother died.

B．before she became a writer.

C．when she was a child.

D．when Mother gave it to her.

2.The passage shows that _____.

A．Mother was cold on the surface but kind in her heart to her daughter.

B．Mother was too serious about everything her daughter had done.

C．Mother cared much about her daughter in words.

D．Mother wrote to her daughter in careful words.

3.The word gulf in the paragraph 2 means ______.

A．deep understanding between the old and the young.

B．different ideas between the mother and the daughter.

C．free talks between mother and daughter.

D．part of the sea going far in land.

4.What did mother do with her daughter’s letter asking for forgiveness?

A．She had never received the letter.

B．For years, she often talked about the letter.

C．She didn’t forgive her daughter at all in all her life.

D．She read the letter again and again till she died.

5.What’s the best title of the passage?

A．My Letter to Mother.

B．Mother and Children.

C．My Mother’s Desk.

D．Talks between Mother and Me.
