1.It was Mother's Day morning last year and I was doing my shopping at our local supermarket with my five-year-old son,Tenyson.As we were leaving,we found that only minutes earlier an elderly woman had fallen over at the entrance and had hit her head on the concrete.Her husband was with her,but there was blood everywhere and the woman was embarrassed and clearly in shock.
Walking towards the scene,Tenyson became very upset about what had happened to the couple.He said to me,"Mum,it's not much fun falling over in front of everyone."
At the front of the supermarket a charity(慈善) group had set up a stand selling cooked sausages and flowers to raise funds.Tenyson suggested that we should buy the lady a flower."It will make her feel better,"he said.I was amazed that he'd come up with such a sweet idea.So we went over to the flower seller and asked her if we could buy a flower for the lady to cheer her up."Just take it,"she replied."I can't take your money for such a wonderful gesture."
By now paramedics(救援人員)had arrived,and were attending the injured woman.As we walked up to her,my son became intimidated by all the blood and medical equipment.He said he was just too scared to go up to her.Instead I gave the flower to the woman's husband and told him,"My son was very upset for your wife and wanted to give her this flower to make her feel better."
At that,the old man started crying and said,"Thank you so much,you have a wonderful son.Happy Mother's Day to you."The man then bent down and gave his wife the flower,telling her who it was from.Though badly hurt and shaken,the old lady looked up at Tenyson with love in her eyes and gave him a little smile.

24.What dose the author intend to tell us?D
A.One can never be too careful.
B.Actions speak louder than words.
C.Love begins with a little smile.
D.A small act of kindness brings a great joy.
25.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?B
A.The elderly woman was knocked down by Tenyson.
B.Tenyson's idea of buying a flower gained his father's support.
C.Tenyson's care for the elderly woman puzzled the flower seller.
D.The elderly woman was moved to tears by Tenyson's gesture.
26.The underlined word"intimidated"in the fourth paragraph probably means"C".

D.excited
27.What would be the best title for the passage?A

9.Once when I was six years old I saw an amazing picture in a book called True Stories from Naturc about the primeval forest.It was a picture of a boa constriotor(大蟒蛇)in the act of swallowing an arimal.In the book it said:"Boa constrictors swallow their prey whole,without chewing it.After that they are not able to move,and they sleep through the six months that they need for digestion."
I thought deeply then over the adventures of the jungle.And after some work with a colored pencil I succeeded in making my first drawing.My Drawing Number One.I showed my masterpiece to the grown-ups,and asked them whether the drawing frightened them.But they answered:"Frighten?Why should any one be frightened by a hat?"
My drawing was not a picture of a hat.It was a picture of a boa constrictor digesting an elephant.But since the grown-ups were not able to understand it,I made another drawing:I drew the inside of a boa constrictor,so that the grown-ups could see it clearly.They always need to have things explained.That's my Drawing Number Two.
The grown-ups'response,this time,was to advise me to lay aside my drawings of boa constrictors,whether from the inside or the outside,and devote myself instead to geography,history,arithmetic,and grammar.That is why,at the age of six,I gave up what might have been a great painter.I had been disheartened by the failure of my Drawing Number One and my Drawing Number Two.Grown-ups never understand anything by themselves,and it is tiresome for children to be always and forever explaining things to them.
So then I chose another profession,and learned to pilot airplanes.I have flown a little over all parts of the world; and it is true that geography has been very useful to me.At a glance I can distinguish China from Arizona.If one gets lost in the night,such knowledge is valuable.
In the course of this life I have had a great many encounters with a great many people.And that hasn't much improved my opinion of them.Whenever I met one of them who seemed to me at all clear-sighted,I tried showing him my Drawing Number One,which I have always kept.I would try to find out if this was a person of true understanding.But,whoever it was,he,or she would always say:That is a hat.Then I would never talk to that person about boa constrictors,or primeval forests,or stars.I would bring myself down to his level.I would talk to him about bridge,and golf,and politics and neckties.And the grown-up would be greatly pleased to have met such an intelligent man.
59.The writer drew his first picture in order toD.
A.show the grown-ups what the book was about
B.frighten the grown-ups trying to enter the forest
C.remind himself of the adventures of the jungle
D.illustrate a boa constrictor'act of digesting an animal
60.How did the writer understand the grown-ups'response to his second drawing?B
A.He was actually only good at academic study.
B.It was a waste of time for him to keep on drawing.
C.He has difficulty in communicating with the adults.
D.He was good at anything but geography.
61.The underlined word disheartened in Paragraph 4 could most probably be replaced byA.
A.discouraged 
B.dissatisfied
C.discriminated   
D.disturbed
62.Which of the following statements is true?D
A.The writer could have become a pilot if encouraged when young.
B.The writer finally changed his opinion of grown-ups.
C.The writer has been showing his two pictures to others ever since.
D.The writer felt nobody could have really understood him.

16.When my friend went to Europe last summer,instead of snapping photographs of the Louvre or the Eiffel Tower or Stonehenge,she brought back 32 rolls of…Cathedral(大教堂的) ceilings.Ceilings.For the 10 years I've known her I had never suspected that she was this passionate about stained glass.
Still one of the best things about such pictures-despite their obvious narrow appeal-is that they can't help but tell us a great deal about the people who took them.
So I shouldn't have been surprised when I got the roll of film back from my 5-year-old son's first camping trip.I opened the envelope,naively expecting to see pictures of the nightly campfire,the sun setting over the forest,and possibly even a deer or two.
Instead,I saw an off-center picture of tennis shoes.Not even his tennis shoes,mind you,but a pair someone had lost and left in the cabin.Mystery shoes.And that's not all.
As I went through the stack,I found that my son had also taken a picture of his sleeping bag,a penny he found in the gravel next to the car,a leaf,an orange sock,a close-up of his father's ear,a burned hot dog,his thumb,a piece of gum,and many other similar things.
There was barely one sign of nature in the whole stack.I couldn't help thinking that if he'd wanted pictures of assorted junk,it would've been cheaper had he spent the weekend in our back-yard.
AT LEAST that is what I thought until I showed the photographs to my ceiling-snapping friend,the mother of three teenagers,who said simply,"There's nothing wrong with these."
But of course,this is just the type of answer you'd expect from someone who photographs ceiling.
Then she told me about the time her daughter went to Yosemite Valley and returned with rolls of photographs of the hotel,restaurant,and gift shop.She also told me about the time her son took his camera to a Major League Baseball game and returned with 24 pictures of cloud formations.
I had a feeling she was just trying to make me feel better.
Then again,to a 5-year-old boy,finding a penny is more exciting than seeing a squirrel.And why would he waste good film on something like,say,some endangered water buffaloes,when he could take a picture of cool tennis shoes?Or his shiny new green sleeping bag?
Face it:Things like beautiful sunsets and campfires can't compare to a bag of extra-large marshmallow.
So I did what any good mother would do:I marked the date on the back of the pictures and slid them into our family vacation photo album-right after the five pages of ice sculptures I took last year on our cruise to the Bahamas.
59.Who might have taken a picture of the back seat of the family car in his or her trip mentioned in this     passage?B
A.The author's friend.
B.The author's son.
C.The author.
D.The author's friend's daughter.
60.The author changed her mind on her son's picture taking becauseC.
A.her friend persuaded her to do so
B.her son's pictures finally struck her
C.she realized the truth by herself inspired by the surrounding examples
D.it suddenly occurred to her that she herself had also taken unique pictures before
61.What can we infer from this passage?A
A.Different people perceive the world from different angles,which may vary according to their age,gender,life experiences and soon.
B.The author's friend is a better mum in terms of educating children.
C.The author will educate her son to take pictures of nature instead of some boring things.
D.The author will take vacation pictures of different kind from her past ones.
