to have cereal (谷类食物), eggs or toast. while others had cokes and candy for lunch, i had to eat a sandwich. as you can guess, my supper was different from other kids too. but_at_least_i_wasnt_alone_in_my_sufferings. my sister and two brothers had the same mean mother as i did. my mother insisted upon knowing where we were at all times. she had to know who our friends were and where we were going. she insisted if we said wed be gone an hour, then we be gone one hour or lessnot one hour and one minute. and she always insisted upon us telling the truth. now you can see how mean she was. the worst is yet to come. we had to be in bed by nine each night and up at eight the next morning. we had to wash dishes, make beds, and learn to cook. we had to wear clean clothes and take a bath, while the other kids always wore their clothes for days. i believe she laid awake at night thinking up mean things to do to us. through the years, things didnt improve a bit. we could not lie in bed, “sick” like our friends did, and miss school. our marks in school had to be up to par(达到正常水平). our friends report cards had beautiful colors on them, black for passing, red for failing. my mother, being as different as she was, would settle for nothing less than ugly black marks. as the years rolled by, we were one by one put to shame. we were graduated from high school. with our mother behind us, talking, hitting and demanding respect, none of us was allowed the pleasure of being a dropout. my mother was a complete failure as a mother. out of four children, a couple of us attained some higher education. and whom do we have to blame for the terrible way we turned out? youre right, our mean mother. she forced us to grow up into educated and honest adults. now i am trying to raise my three children. i am filled with pride when my children call me mean. because, you see, i had the meanest mother in the world.56what does the sentence “but at least i wasnt alone in my sufferings.” mean?athe authors mother was only mean to her.bthe authors mother suffered her.cthe authors mother was mean to her sister, brothers and her.dthe author wasnt alone because of suffering.57according to the passage, the authors mother will ask her children to do all the following except _.alearn to cookbwear clean clothescgo to bed and get up at fixed timeddrink as much cokes as they want58why was the authors mother mean to her children?abecause she wanted her children to be top students in school.bbecause she wanted her children to bring home colored report cards like her friends did.cbecause she wanted her children to drop out.dbecause she wanted her children to do their best at school and be educated and respected citizens.bit was the afternoon of december 24, the day before christmas; and as the newest doctor in our office, i had to work. the only thing that brightened my day was the beautifully decorated christmas tree in our waiting room and a gift sent to me by a fellow i was dating- a dozen long-stemmed red roses.as i was cleaning my office, our receptionist came and said there was a lady in the front office that urgently needed to speak with me. as i stepped out, i noticed a young, tired-looking woman with a baby in her arms. nervously, she explained that her husband-a prisoner in a nearby prison-was my next patient. the guards were scheduled to bring him to the office that afternoon. she told me she wasnt allowed to visit her husband in prison and that he had never seen his son. her request was for me to let the boys father sit in the waiting room with her as long as possible before i called him for his appointment. since my schedule wasnt full, i agreed. after all, it was christmas eve.a short time later, her husband arrived-with chains on his feet and hands, and two armed guards as bodyguards. the womans tired face lit up like our little christmas tree when her husband took a seat beside her. i kept glancing out to watch them laugh, cry and share their child. after almost an hour, i called the prisoner back to my office. while i worked, the guards stood just outside my door. the patient seemed like a gentle and modest man. i wondered what he possibly could have done to be held under such conditions. i tried to make him as comfortable as possible.at the end of the appointment, i wished him a merry christmas-a difficult thing to say to a man headed back to prison. he smiled and thanked me. he also said he felt saddened by the fact he hadnt been able to get his wife anything for christmas. on hearing this, i was inspired with a wonderful idea.ill never forget the look on both their faces as the prisoner gave his wife the beautiful, long-stemmed roses. im not sure who experienced the most joy-the husband in giving, the wife in receiving, or myself in having the opportunity to share in this special moment.59what can be inferred from the first paragraph?athe writer was a newcomer to her office.ba fellow sent her a dozen red roses as christmas present.cshe was in low spirits because she had to work before christmas.dshe was at work with a light heart.60the young woman came to the writers office for

most probably means “ ”. ato be sent to hospitalbto be separated from his familycto be comfortable dto become a prisoner62what does the writer learn from the story?athe wife experienced the most joy in receiving.ban act of kindness can mean a lot.cthe prisoner was treated with mercy.dwhoever breaks the law should be punished.cin december, 2010, many american newspapers publish a list of the best

parrotfashion, the grammarwithawhip system, which was good enough for our grandparents. the theories of modern psychology have stepped into argue that we must understand the need of children. children are not just small adults; they are children who must be respected as much. well, you may say, this is as it should be, a good idea. but think further. what happens? “education” becomes the responsibility not of teachers, but of psychologists. what happens then? teachers worry too much about the psychological implications of their lessons, and forget about the subjects themselves. if a child dislikes a lesson, the teacher feels that it is his fault, not the childs. so teachers worry whether history is “relevant” to modern young children. and do they dare to recount stories about violence? or will this make the children themselves violent? can they tell thei
