阅读理解。     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. 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"d 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 (另动感情的) ".  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
(原谅) me.
     I posted the letter and waited for her answer. None came.
     My hope turned to disappointment, then little interest, finally, peace. It seemed that nothing happened.
I couldn"t be sure that the letter had even got to Mother. I only knew I had written it, 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 (折叠) and refolded many times.
     Give me the answer, my letter asks, in any way you choose. Mother, you always chose the act that
speaks louder than words.1. The writer began to love her mother"s desk _____A. after Mother died
B. before she became a writer
C. when she was a child 
D. when Mother gave it to her2. 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 words3. The word "gulf" in the passage 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 land4. 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

阅读理解。     I"m confused (困惑) these days. We are taught at home and at school that using violence (暴力) is the
  least civilized (文明的) way to solve problems. For example, last week I thought about hitting my friend
 for winning a beautiful shell while we were playing at the beach. I talked with him instead and we came
 to an agreement. If two adults had a disagreement, and if they used violence towards each other in order
  to win, is it all right?
     When two countries disagree, they often fight a war. Why is using violence not okay at home, at school,
  or in your country but okay between countries? So many people have been killed because of wars, not
  only soldiers but ordinary people, even small children and babies. And refugees (难民) exist, too.
     A war is a great violence, like two people fighting over a shell, just much bigger. Adults say they are
  fighting wars in order to solve problems and make peace. But can you really "make peace" by killing so
 many people? I don"t think bombs (炸弹) can reach people"s hearts and change them. Bombs can"t
 create love and caring, and that"s what we need in the world. Why do adults use violence so quickly?
 Why can"t they use their wisdom (智慧) and talk it over?
     Adults might say that things are not that easy. But they are the ones that teach us to be kind, not to hurt
  people, and not to kill. Why don"t they act as what they say?
                                                                                    —A page from a 12-year-old boy, Joshua"s diary.1. At the beach, Joshua _____.    A. hit his friend
    B. won a beautiful shell
    C. played with a beautiful shell
    D. came to an agreement with his friend2. Joshua hates wars between countries because _____.    A. he is afraid of wars
    B. he doesn"t understand adults
    C. wars create death and refugees
    D. wars are not the only way to make peace3. What"s the key to peace in Joshua"s opinion?    A. Love and care for each other.
    B. Don"t use violence so quickly.
    C. Stop using bombs in wars.
    D. Don"t hurt or kill people in wars.4. From the reading we can see Joshua wants adults to _____.    A. learn from children
    B. be children"s models
    C. be kind to children
    D. teach children how to solve problems

     Different weather makes people feel different. It influences health, intelligence and feelings.
     In August, it is very hot and wet in the southern part of the United States.   People there have heart
trouble and other kinds of health problems during this month. In the Northeast and the Middle West, it
is very hot in summer and very cold in winter. People in these states have more heart  trouble when the
weather changes in February or March.
     The weather can also influence intelligence. For example, in a 1983 report by scientists, the IQ of a
group of students was very high when a very strong wind came, but after the strong wind, their IQ was
10% lower.  The wind can help people have higher intelligence.  Very hot weather,  on the other hand,
can make it lower. Students in many schools  in the United States often get worse on  exams  in the hot
months of the year (July and August).
     Weather also has a strong influence on people"s feelings.  Winter may be a bad  time for thin people.
They usually feel cold during these months. They might feel unhappy during cold weather,  too.  But fat
people may have a hard time in hot summer. At about 18℃, people become stronger.
     Low air pressure (气压) may make people forgetful. People leave more bags on buses and in shops
on low-pressure days.
     Are you feeling sad, tired, or forgetful today? It may be the weather"s problem.
1. _________ can cause health problems.
A. Hot and wet weather    
B. A strong wind      
C. Warm weather      
D. Low air
2. A report shows that people may have higher intelligence when _______ comes.
A. rain                
B. a strong wind        
C. very hot weather    
D. low air pressure
3. According to the writer, fat people may feel bad in _______ weather.
A. cold                
B. cool              
C. warm            
D. hot
4. The writer wants to tell us that ________.
A. hot and cold weather influences all people in the same way
B. Weather influences people"s hearings
C. the IQ changes when weather changes
D. people feel good on low-pressure days
5. The best title for this passage is "________".   
A. Hot Weather Causes Health Problems      
B. Different Weather Makes People Feel Bad
C. Weather Influences Feelings            
D. Weather Influences Health, Intelligence and Feelings

     There will be a lot of problems in a teenager"s life. They are just a part of    1  to be an adult.
However,   2  they are dealt with well, they won"t become real problems.
     Some parents don"t understand their teenage children very well. They don"t   3  their wishes or
different moods (情绪) at this special time of life. They don"t understand that it is quite   4  for teenagers
to become adults. That is also the reason that teenagers   5 don"t know what to do and get angry easily.
     I think I"m a good example of that kind of person. I ever had a(n)   6  like that. When I just went to
the middle school, I   7  a lot of problems for my teachers. I didn"t   8  the class rules and kept talking to
my classmates in class.   9  the head teacher called my parents. After they learned   10  had happened,
my parents took me home. To my surprise, they weren"t   11  with me. They talked with me about the
problem and tried to find out the reason for the problem  12  they could solve it.   13  their help, the
problem was solved in the end. And I was really   14  for what they did for me.
     When there"s a problem in a teenage child"s life, the parents should find a good opportunity to have
a(n)   15  with the child first. Then they should try to solve the problem together. This is good for both
of the parents and the child.
