wanted me to take my mum out to dinner and a movie.My mother has been a widow for 19 years,but the demands of my work and my three children had made it possible to visit her only occasionally.That night I called to invite her to go out for dinner and a movie.My mother is the type of woman who believes that a late night call or a surprise invitation is a sign of bad news.“I thought that it would be pleasant to spend some time with you,” I responded.She thought about it for a moment,and then said,“I would like that very much.”That Friday after work,as I drove over to pick her up,I was a bit nervous.When I arrived at her house,I noticed that she also seemed to be nervous about our date.We went to a restaurant that,although not elegant,was very nice and comfortable.During the dinner,we talked so much that we missed the movie.A few days later,my mother died of a heart attack.Some time later,I received an envelope with a copy of a restaurant receipt from the same place my mother and I had dined.An attached note said,“I paid this bill in advance.I wasnt sure that I could be there;nevertheless,I paid for two platesone for you and the other for your wife.You will never know what that night meant for me.I love you,son.”At that moment,I understood the importance of saying “I LOVE YOU” in time and giving our loved ones the time that they deserve.Nothing in life is more important than your family.Give them the time they deserve,because these things cannot be put off till “some other time”.1.When the author called to invite his mother to go out for dinner and a movie,his mother felt

rules.planning your next move.acting as a team member.these are all “game” ideas that you will come across throughout your life.Think about some of the games you played as a young child,such as rope-jumping and hide-and-seek.Such games are entertaining and fun.But perhaps more importantly,they translate life into exciting dramas that teach children some of the basic rules they will be expected to follow the rest of their lives,such as taking turns and cooperating(合作).Many childrens games have a practical side.Children around the world play games that prepare them for work they will do as grown-ups.For instance,some Saudi Arabian children play a game called bones,which sharpens the hand-eye coordination(协调)needed in hunting.Many sports encourage national or local pride.The most famous games of all,the Olympic Games,bring athletes from around the world together to take part in friendly competition.People who watch the event wave flags,knowing that a gold medal is a win for an entire country,not just the athlete who earned it.For countries experiencing natural disasters or war,an Olympic win can mean so much.Sports are also an event that unites people.Soccer is the most popular sport in the world.People on all continents play itsome for fun and some for a living.Nicolette Iribarne,a Californian soccer player,has discovered a way to spread hope through soccer.He created a foundation to provide poor children with not only soccer balls but also a promising future.Next time you play your favourite game or sport,think about why you enjoy it,what skills are needed,and whether these skills will help you in other aspects of your life.5.Through playing hide-and-seek,children are expected to learn to .A.be a team leaderB.obey the basic rulesC.act as a

events提示:词义猜测题。这句话的字面意思是“把生活翻译成让人激动的戏剧”,再根据本段的具体解释可以推断其真正的含义是“让孩子们在有趣的游戏中了解生活,掌握生活的基本原则”。故选C项。答案:C7.
