核心考点
试题【When I was thirteen, one day my mom told my family that she had to tell us somet】;主要考察你对题材分类等知识点的理解。[详细]
举一反三
Gift Idea
The other day I was shopping for Grandma when I realized I had no gift ideas at all.It was not a birthday gift or anything like that.It was simply sort of a hello gift.That is how we do things in my family.We don"t really give gifts for special occasions.Instead, we occasionally just give presents to each other to tell other people that we are thinking about them.
That was why I wanted a gift for Grandma.But it was like my imagination had dried up. I have gone through all of the gift ideas in previous years, fruits, wines, cheeses, little handmade crafts, and anything else that you can give to a grandmother.I had even given her gift watches, and CDs.What else was there?
I have always found gift ideas for men a little bit easier than for women, because for men, you can always get the usual things, such as video games, power tools and things like that.With a woman"s gift idea, however, you have to know more about her.You cannot just get someone a book or a CD.You have to know all about her taste in movies, music, and literature.
My grandmother likes to read a lot, but what she likes is always pretty popular.I didn"t want to get her a book that she might not like, but I was running out of time.I needed a gift idea for this weekend and went to visit her.After all, I hadn"t seen her for a long time.I wanted to give her a gift so she would not feel ignored.
Finally, I came up with the perfect gift idea.I made a collection of all the stories I had written in the past year.It wasn"t a typical gift idea like a bunch of flowers, but it really worked in the situation.You see, I am a writer and my grandma has always been my fan.
Anyway, I had been learning about bookbinding recently, and had pretty much mastered the art.I figured that I would add a little bit of handmade artwork to the stories, bind it altogether, and give it to her.It took hours to complete, but it was well worth the effort.She absolutely loved it.
小题1:The writer chose a gift for Grandma to _____.
A.celebrate a special family occasion

C.congratulate her on her birthday
D.beg her pardon for ignoring her
小题2:What gift did the writer finally decide to give his grandma?
A.Gift watches.
B.A bunch of flowers.
C.Artwork made by hand.
D.Stories written by himself.
小题3:How does the writer feel about giving gifts to women?

C.Time-wasting.D.Popular.

D.the writer"s family will give gifts on regular days

It’s a sad and familiar voice that we often hear in big cities: “Can you spare some change?”
Usually, when faced with that particular         , I have feelings of guilt if I pass by          giving a coin or two.
I had that feeling       in Venice while on a tour of Italy’s famous sites in 2006. I had taken refuge from the          in a quiet café. Outside, there was an old woman kneeling on the hard, ancient paving stones,         .
Steady          of tourists were walking past her. A young backpacker stood away from the crowd,       drinking in the vistas(景观、景色), but I noticed the young traveler was also          the old woman.
A tourist group walked along the street,          the woman and walked on.          group of tourists arrived and walked past the old lady. The backpacker watched          everybody else went on their way, focused on the          around them. Then, I was preparing to leave when I caught sight of the backpacker stepping forward and          some money in the woman’s cup. He did this somewhat        just before the arrival of another tourist group. As I         , the leader of the group stopped and put some money in the cup. Having been shown the way, other tourists followed suit and          some more coins to the cup.
His work done, the young man walked over to the old beggar-woman, patted her on the shoulder and said, “I hope that          a little.”
I don’t know if the woman understood his English or          what had just happened, but I did.
I placed some money in the woman’s cup and continued my travels,          after witnessing such a          act of kindness.

“Father, do you see Mother in your dreams?” the young girl asks. “You know sometimes I do.”
“Mother comes to see me a lot, you know. We sit and talk.” The father smiles. “How is your homework coming along?”
“Why do I have to study so hard?”
“It is what your mother would have wanted!”
She regrets speaking her mind. “I’m sorry, Father, I shouldn’t have said that.” She looks up and sees his eyes well up with tears.
“It’s okay, love,” he gets up and pours himself a drink. “I’ll just sit outside for a while. You finish up your work, okay?”
“I’m sorry, Father; Mother did love you very much. She told me all the time.”
“Homework, first, eh? Then we can chat about your mother.”
He heads off outside and sits in his usual chair, looking around the courtyard. The whole area relaxes the mind and somehow soothes the soul.
“All finished, Father. May I get a drink and sit with you? I have some questions.”
She comes with two drinks one for him and one for herself. He looks surprised. She never really liked him having a drink. Although he had cut back a lot from before he brought her here, it still seemed strange.
“Mother told me all about you. That is before she passed away. We would laugh together at your love stories.”
He listens without uttering a single sound.
“Why didn’t you come and take her away with you? She really wanted that. Did you know that?”
Her father looks at his daughter lovingly. “Circumstances were difficult back then. It was just the way things were. When it came time to…” He sighs. “To visit her it was too late.”
The girl smiles. “I hope I will have the same kind of love you and mother had.”
“Without all the heartache,” her father adds.
“She always knew you loved her. She told me every day,” the child mentions cheerfully. “I saw her crying sometimes when she read your letters.”
“Did she make you promise to look after me?” She inquires.
“She asked me to take care of you.”
“You promised her, didn’t you?”
“Yes, I did.”
“It is nice out here, isn"t it? Mother would have been very happy here.”
She talks with some authority. Her father remains silent. A smile comes to his weary brow. He nods his head.
“Mother wanted me to give you something. I think now the time is right.” She runs to her room. Upon returning she hands her father a book. “It’s mother’s diary! She wanted me to give it to you.”
He takes the book and holds it in his trembling hands, “Thank you.”
“Mother said you would understand things better.”
“Wise woman, your mother.”
He places the book on the table as he gets up. The girl gets up and wraps herself around her father.
“I love you.” she looks up at his face.
He picks her up and hugs her. “I love you, too.” His voice trembles.
“It’s okay, Father. We have each other now and mother is in both of us.”
He kisses her head.
“Time you went to bed,” her father softly says.
He puts her down and she scampers off to get washed and ready for bed.
Clearing up everything he checks on his daughter. She is in bed waiting for her good night kiss. He tucks her in and bids her goodnight.
Just as he is to leave she tells him. “Mother told me she adopted me when I was a baby.”
He stands at her bedroom door. Words fail him. Yes, he knew she was adopted.
“I am really lucky for being loved by my parents, even if I am not really theirs.”
You trying to bring on the water works?” he tells her.
She giggles, “Goodnight, Father. I love you.”
“Love you, too.”
His face lights up as he wipes his dampened eyes.
The door closes and the child falls asleep dreaming of her mother.
Sitting outside he picks up the diary and opens it and reads the first line: “I love you, my dearest, if only things could have been different…”

In a small open courtyard, outside a school building, there were flowers here and there. In the sunshine,a        was lying on the grass,reading a book with        concentration. Near her,another child was carefully watering the flowers, while a third was        with his back against a tree and had a        on his knees. He appeared to be drawing or writing something on it. He was       in his task, like the first child.
      the building, there were pleasant carpeted areas. Many children were busy with their tasks in a variety of        while teachers wandered among them, talking to them,        them, and encouraging their efforts.
      I watched this scene on a morning in May years ago, it        to me that a visitor here would        have thought he had entered a formal school. He would have been even more      if he had been told that the children he was        came from different kinds of academic levels.
That        has been staying with me ever since. I have been        about some problems. Why in many schools are our children        asked to acquire skills in a way        from a real-life context(情境)? Why does a        school child so often become a defeated school failure?
Developmental psychologist Margaret Donald once said, “      of the intellectual framework (知识框架) on which we        our teaching is misleading.” In my opinion, a child learns everything in human situation. And if every child could learn in the same way as the children in the school I visited, they would develop better.

As of Monday, Amy Carrickhoff’s video “Spoiled deer getting her bottle” was viewed more than 792,000 times and shared 9,600 times. In this heartwarming video, Carrickhoff stands outside her house in Oakridge, North Carolina, ______ for a deer she has named “Little Girl.” The deer comes out of the ______ and jumps on her. It hurries up the driveway and ______ Carrickhoff into the house, where it then sucks down a baby bottle of goat’s milk. When the ______ is gone, Carrickhoff wipes its mouth with a tissue.
While some animal lovers were touched by the obvious ______ Carrickhoff had with the deer, others felt she wasn’t doing the deer any ______. They said she was allowing the deer to get too ______ around humans and it could have been hit by a car, been shot by a hunter, or hurt someone. “You just gave this animal a death ______ — you also have put all your neighbors and their children at ______ of being attacked when this deer matures, and when it doesn’t get ______, it attacks someone,” one reader wrote.
Carrickhoff’s comment was that if she had known the video would get so many ______ she would have changed out of her gym clothes. As for the deer, ______, the update isn’t a happy one.
Little Girl continued coming back for bottles until around January 2011, when it moved onto ______ deer food, Carrickhoff said. “She walked off into the woods and we never saw her again,” she said. “We ______ those woods … we never found anything.”
Looking back, Carrickhoff said getting to know the deer was a special ______ that she wouldn’t regret.
Friends had brought Little Girl to Carrickhoff’s home because the woods in their backyard were protected, and the deer would be ______ from hunters. School children loved visiting the gentle creature, who would ______ them with its soft tongue and didn’t mind being ______.
Carrickhoff is confident that she didn’t over-domesticate (过度驯养) the animal. Even when Little Girl was bottle-fed, she lived in the woods and did “deer things”, Carrickhoff’s daughter said. The deer gave birth to a ______ of its own the following June, and toward the end, it wouldn’t come when it was called. It was becoming ______ again.
She and her husband got so attached to Little Girl that they don’t ever want to take care of another animal. “I just watch the videos and she kind of lives on,” she said.
