題目列表(包括答案和解析)
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 more 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, “it’s for Elizabeth. ”
I never saw her angry, 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(易動感情的)”. But she lived “on the surface(表面)”.
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(原諒) me.
I posted the letter and waited for her answer. None came.
My hope turned to disappointment(失望), then little interest and, finally, peace— it seemed that nothing happened. I couldn’t be sure that the letter had even got to mother. I only knew that I had written it, and I could stop trying to make her into someone she was not.
Now the present of her desk told, 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(折疊) and refolded many times.
Give me an answer, my letter asks, in any way you choose. Mother, you always chose the act that speaks louder than words.

There seems never to have been a civilization(文明) without toys, but when and how they developed is unknown. They probably came about just to give children something to do.
In the ancient world, as is today, most boys play with some kinds of toys and most girls with another. In societies where social roles are strictly determined, boys pattern their play after the activities of their fathers and girls after the tasks of their mothers. This is true because boys and girls are being prepared, even in play, to step into the roles and responsibilities of the adult world.
What is remarkable about the history of toys is not so much how they changed over the centuries but how much they have remained the same. It is the universality of toys about their development in all parts of the world and their continuing to the present that is amazing. In Egypt, the Americas, China, Japan and among the Arctic peoples, generally the same kinds of toys appeared. Nearly every civilization had dolls, little weapons, toy soldiers, tiny animals and vehicles.
Because toys can be generally regarded as a kind of art form, they have not been subject to (服從于) technological progress that characterizes inventions for adult use. The progress from the wheel to the oxcart to the automobile is a direct line of advancement. The progress from a rattle (撥浪鼓) used by a baby in 3,000 BC to one used by an infant today, however, is not characterized by inventiveness. Each rattle is the product of the artistic tastes of the times and subject to the limitations of materials then ready for use. (words: 285 ; time : 5ms)
1. The reason why the toys most boys play with are different from those that girls play with is that ________ .
A. their social roles are strictly determined
B. most boys would like to follow their fathers' jobs
C. boys like to play with their fathers while girls with their mothers
D. they like challenging activities.
2. "The universality of toys" lies in the fact that ________ .
A. technological advances have greatly improved the making of toys
B. the improvement of techniques in making toys depends on the efforts of universities
C. the exploration of the universe has led to the creation of new kinds of toys
D. the basic characteristics of toys are the same all over the world
3. Regarded as a kind of art form, toys ________.
A. follow a direct line of development
B. also greatly interest adults
C. are not characterized by progress in technology
D. show the pace of social progress

A．Think while you are reading B．Select a proper material C．Five suggestions for achieving better results D．Read loudly E．Read on F．Use a dictionary at a right time |
Effective reading should adopt a correct way, and then you can get more by paying less．Here are some hints for reading effectively．
1.___________
Don’t choose a rather difficult book or a too easy one for yourself to read．A book full of new words will make you feel discouraged quickly．To understand those new words, you have to turn to the dictionary quite often．It seems that you are not reading the book but the dictionary．It has no fun at all! On the contrary, a too easy one will only waste your time and cannot do any help．The two extremes may at last make you give up reading．So it’s better for you to find a proper book with no more than five new words on each page．
2._____________
If you come across a new word, do not look it up in a dictionary as quickly as possible．Leave it alone and guess the meaning of it based on the content of the text． This ability is quite necessary in reading．If you know your guess is right later, you will be highly excited at your “success”, and your interest in reading is well stimulated．If a word really hinders you from understanding the whole passage, turn to the dictionary by then．I am sure you can remember this word very well, as it has left you such a deep impression for its “troublesome image．”
3.___________
To comprehend what you are reading, you should think while you are reading, then from your own ideas on some special issues．Try to scribble some lines-a very short journal, to express your ideas．Your writing does not need to be quite formal but expressive．This practice can make you communicate with the original English authors．Day by day, your way of thinking in English will turn into a native way, which is quite important for English writing．
4._____________
Language has its own beauty, no matter Chinese or English．Don’t merely take English as a “test”．Take it as an “entertainment” instead and you will enjoy it through learning．
Maybe you should find some beautiful literary works such as a prose or a poem to read, if you like．Try top read them as loudly and impassionedly as you can．During this process, not only you can enjoy yourself by the great emotions of the writers, but also your pronunciation and your manner of speaking English will be improved．
5.______________
The last but not the least, keep on reading．If you cannot keep it as a habit, you will suffer from paying without gaining．
