阅读理解。     I was 9 years old when I found out my father was ill. It was 1944, but I can remember my mother"s words
as if it were yesterday:" Kerrel, I don"t want you to take food from your father, because he has AIDS. Be very
careful when you are around him."
     AIDS wasn"t something we talked about in my country when I was growing up. From then on, I knew that
this would be a family secret. My parents were not together anymore, and my dad lived alone. For a while, he
could take care of himself. But when I was 12, his condition worsened. My father"s other children lived far away,
so it fell to me to look after him.
     We couldn"t afford all the necessary medication for him, and because Dad was unable to work, I had no
money for school supplies and often couldn"t even buy food for dinner. I would sit in class feeling completely
lost, the teacher"s words muffled as I tried to figure out how I was going to manage. I did not share my burden
(负担) with anyone. I had seen how people reacted to AIDS. Kids laughed at classmates who had parents with
the disease. And even adults could be cruel. When my father was moved to the hospital, the nurses would leave
his food on the bedside table even though he was too weak to feed himself.

     Two weeks before Christmas, Mother told me we were going to my grandmother"s house for the holiday.
Grandma and Uncle Henry lived on a farm some 15 miles out of town. They had no electricity or running
water and   1   what I considered the "good things" in life. They   2   made no plans for Christmas. When
Christmas Eve arrived, Mom told me in her best "I-mean-it" voice to   3   all the decorations (装饰物) from our
tree. She packed those up   4   all the trimmings (材料) for a   5   turkey dinner.
      Christmas morning   6   perfectly with the sun shining brightly across a fresh blanket of snow.   7   I
sulked (生气) silently in the backseat of the car as we made our   8   to grandma"s. This was going to be the 
  9   Christmas ever! Grandma was   10   to see us as we walked up to her door. "What on earth are you doing
here?" she stammered." We weren"t expecting   11  . It"s Christmas, and I don"t even have a turkey to cook for
you.""I knew 12 ." Mom said as we set boxes of goodies on the kitchen table."That"s  13  we brought all with
us.""We   14   have a tree," Mom insisted."  15  , what will we do with all these decorations?" Uncle Henry
quickly caught Mom"s spirit. He called me to join him, and we found a perfect Christmas tree in the woods.
Soon the house   16   fresh and piney as we decorated the tree, and the day   17   a festive air. The turkey
dinner was very good, too. I was actually beginning to enjoy this unusual Christmas day!
     Dessert (甜点) was forgotten  18   Mom came out with the final surprise-a flaming pudding!"Merry
Christmas, mother," Mom said. "Dear me!" Grandma gasped. "I haven"t seen a flaming pudding since I left
England before I was married." Tears of   19   filled her eyes. I could not keep the tears   20   my eyes, either.
I knew then that Mom had also given me the best Christmas present ever-she had taught me what a beautiful
thing it is to give.

     As a child, I remember listening to a song called "Wonderful, Wonderful Copenhagen." When I visited the
city last year, that song kept running through my head. It got me wondering: Just what is wonderful about
Copenhagen?
     It"s not a place filled with world-famous tourist sites. But it does have a charm(魅力)that makes you want
to linger. You can sample the food, visit the castles and museums, and learn about the life of the Danes.
      Stoget, the world"s longest pedestrian (人行道) mall, runs through the center of the old city. This string
of lively street and squares makes walking a treat. I happily explored the mall, looking in the windows of shops
and cafes. I followed Stoget from the square in front of the city hall to Nyhavn. Here, old houses painted
bright colors look out over a picturesque harbor filled with sailing ships. Denmark"s beloved storyteller Hans
Christian Andersen lived here when he wrote his first stories.
     From Nyhavan, I continued heading north. I wanted to see Copenhagen"s symbol, the statue of the Little
Mermaid (美人鱼). She was set up in honor of Hans Christian Andersen"s famous story. As I continued my
city tour, one thing impressed me all the bicycles. I learned that half the population of Copenhagen rides bikes
every day. Only 20 percent of Copenhageners own cars because there is a 180 percent tax on them. That
certainly keeps the city free of traffic jams and heavy pollution! It"s easy to join all the bicyclists pedaling (骑
车) through the streets, too. The city provides free bicycles that anyone can use. The cycling around the
castles and parks made a relaxing end to a full day. As darkness fell and the parks" lights began to twinkle, I
watched families enjoying themselves.
     So what is wonderful about Copenhagen? Just about everything.
1. What is the purpose of referring to the song in the 1st paragraph?
A. To arouse the interest of the readers in the city of Copenhagen.
B. To show the readers that Copenhagen is a wonderful city.
C. To express the puzzled feeling of the author.
D. To ask the readers to find out what is wonderful about Copenhagen.
2. The word "linger" in the 2nd paragraph is most close to______.
A. walk
B. stay
C. learn
D. leave
3. The underlined sentence "makes walking a treat" in the 3rd paragraph means _______ .
A. You can find various food in this string of lively street and squares
B. You will meet many people when walking along the string of lively street and squares
C. Walking will be a great pleasure because of the string of lively slmet and squares
D. The string of lively strict and squares make people eager to walk along
4. Which of the following is TRUE?
A. Copenhagen is a city with lots of places of interest.
B. Stoget is the biggest pedestrian mall in the world.
C. The government of Copenhagen does encourage people to ride bicycles.
D. Nyhavn is a city hall where Hans Christian Anderson once worked.

     The sound of the rain hitting the windows wakes me up and it sounds just exactly as it did l5 years ago,
which reminded me of my girlhood.

asleep right at my   3  . I woke up to find myself not in the classroom but carried on Dad"s back. We were 
  4   home. It was the last time I felt   5   to him.
     After that, he never carried me or hugged me as other fathers did to their children. I was not bothered
much by this   6  . I was proud of it. for I felt   7   and "grown up". However,there were times when I felt
depressed by not having searched for   8   from him.
     One day. I was writing Chinese characters as homework. I hated doing this more than anything. Dad
came and stood behind me for a moment,   9   me scratching (勾抹) the paper. Then he said,"This kind of
writing needs  10   .Your writing is not strong enough. Press harder." I followed his   11   for the next two
weeks. but  12   I could see little improvement.
     I followed my own method-the   13   way. His advice did not improve my writing but our  14   . As I grew
older, I found out that he had finished his   15   in Grade 6,which was the highest grade in town then, so he
was considered to be a   16   .People used to ask him to write something to put on the walls. but he never felt
very useful.
     He often said to me," As you can see, this family is going to count on (指望) you. We are   17   to improve
you anything for your future. You have to get   18   to change the life for yourself."
     As a result of his   19   , I have   20   it through high school and through college.
