阅读理解。     One evening I went out and left my 17-year-old son and his girlfriend in charge of his 8-year-old
brother and 4-year-old sister. I left with complete confidence that the older children would do a
wonderful job of babysitting the younger children. Later, I discovered that I was completely wrong.
     I had decided to return home earlier than planned so that my son and his girlfriend could go out. I
called home with this happy news.But instead of hearing his cheerful, grateful voice on the other end
of the line, allI heard was the sound of a telephone ringing.
     It was, I should point out, after 10 p.m., when the two younger children should have been in bed,
and when the two older children should have been answering the phone. "I"ll give him a lesson, " I said.
I decided they must be outside. Why they might be outside at 10:30 on a winter night I had no idea,
but it was the only explanation I could come up with.
     Finally, in desperation (绝望), I called his girlfriend"s house. His girlfriend answered. "Yes," she said
brightly, "He"s right here."
     He came on the phone.I was not my usual calm, patient.After all, one of the rules of survival for
modern parents is that you can"t trust modern teenagers. "Where are the children?" I said. He said they
were with him. They had done nothing wrong. My son had taken the younger children over to his girlfriend"s house just for ice cream and cake. Well, it turns out that I shouldn"t have believed it. It was only part
of the truth.
      The following Saturday evening we were at my parents" home, celebrating my birthday. My oldest
son gave me the children"s gifts-a series of lovely color photographs of my children, dressed in their best
clothes, and wearing their most wonderful expressions. They are pictures to treasure a lifetime, all taken
by the father of my son"s girlfriend.1. The author went out and left her eldest son in charge of the younger children because _____.A. she knew that his girlfriend was a good baby-sitter

C. the older children have always loved the younger ones
D. she could not find a baby-sitter on that winter night2. Shortly after the author left home one evening, she discovered that _____.A. her son had brought his girlfriend home    
B. her son had left home with his girlfriend

阅读理解。     A British train station has put up a no kissing sign to stop lovers going full steam ahead with their
overamorous farewells.
     Commuters (通勤者,每日往返上班者) have been told: if you want to get up to that kind of
business, do it in the car park.
     The sign has been put up at the dropoff point (落客处) at Warrington Bank Quay station in the
town of Warrington, between Liverpool and Manchester in northwest England.
     A similar sign, this time permitting kissing, has been put up elsewhere in a zone where kissing is
considered tolerable.
     "We have not banned kissing in the station," said a spokesman for operators Virgin Rail.
     "But we have put the sign up at the dropoff point because it is not a very big area and it often gets
busy. The sign is a lighthearted way of reminding people to move on quickly. If people wish to spend
a little more time with their loved ones before they leave, then they should park in the shortstay car park
nearby."
     The busy station links the town with the major cities London, Birmingham,Glasgow, Edinburgh,
Liverpool and Manchester.
     However,one station is trying to rescue love from the tracks. High Wycombe,northwest of London,
is having none of it and is actively urging commuters to show their emotions in public.
     "Kissing is welcome here!...we would never dream of banning kissing," says a poster of a cartoon
couple embracing, framed by a pink heart. "Railway stations are romantic places," insisted Kirsteen
Robertson from Chiltern Railways. "They are where fond farewells and emotional reunions take place,
where relationships start with a glance and even, in the case of our Marylebone station last November
where one passenger will propose (求婚) to another over the public address system."
     "So our passengers are more than welcome to share a kiss in our stations."1. The train station has put up a no kissing sign in order to _____.A. ban kissing in the station
B. get passengers to walk quickly
C. avoid embarrassment
D. prevent illegal practice2. The underlined word "it" here refers to _____.A. rescuing love from the tracks  
B. banning kissing in the station
C. farewell kisses between lovers
D. kissing in the car park3. We learn that in High Wycombe _____.A. kissing is encouraged
B. kissing is forbidden
C. kissing is intolerable
D. kissing is limited to a certain time4. We can infer that _____.A. the dropoff point is not a safe place
B. the dropoff point is a quiet place
C. the dropoff point is a romantic place
D. the dropoff point is often packed with the traffic and passengers
