every day they are very busy earning money in order to 26 the high tuition for my brother and me. they dont act in the romantic ways that i read in books or i see on tv. in their opinion, “i love you” is too luxurious(奢侈的) for them to say. sending 27 to each other on valentines day is even more out of the question.one day, my mother was sewing a quilt. i silently 28 down beside her.“mom, i have a question for you.”“what?”“is there love between you and dad?”my mother stopped her work and raised her head with 29 in her eyes. she didnt answer immediately.i was very worried because i thought i had hurt her. i didnt know what to do. but at last i heard my mothers 30 .“susan,” she said thoughtfully, “look at this thread. sometimes it appears, 31 most of it disappears in the quilt. the thread really makes the quilt strong and durable(耐用的). if life is a quilt, then 32 should be a thread. it can 33 be seen anywhere or anytime, but its really there. love is 34 .”i listened carefully but i couldnt understand her 35 the next spring, when my father suddenly got sick seriously. my mother had to stay with him in the 36 for a month. when they returned from the hospital, it seemed both of

to make a cup of tea. seconds after he stepped into the kitchen there was a loud noise.“as soon as i turned on the cooker it just blew up. it was terrible. so much pain,”andrew remembers. his sister, who was reading nearby, managed to pull him away from the fire while his mum called the hospital.doctors told his mum that andrew would never walk again. his legs had been badly burnt and cut.“all i could move were my arms and head,”he said.for a boy who loved playing outdoors it was very difficult. he would need much rest to get back his strength. the pain and bad dreams he was having didnt make things any easier. after a couple of weeks, he was allowed to go home but he had to spend the next six weeks in bed.with the help of his doctor, andrew started doing some simple exercises for his legs. this brave young boy returned to school after only two months.looking back on the accident, andrew says it has helped him to decide what he wants to do with his life.“when im older, ill go around schools and tell students about my accident. i want to help others,”he believes that children can do anything if they put their minds to it. he often tells his friends.“you can do anything, because i did.”41. what was andrew doing at the time of the accident?a. watching television.b. drinking tea.c. making tea.d. calling the hospital.42. in what order did the following happen in the

story?a. he can walk very well now. b. he will never give up.c. he is sometimes careless.d. he loves his family very much.（b）language learning begins with listening. children are greatly different in the amount of listening they do before they start speaking, and later starters are often long listeners. most children will “obey” spoken instructions some time before they can speak, though the word “obey” is hardly accurate as a description of the eager and delighted cooperation usually shown by the children. before they can speak, many children will also ask questions by gesture and by making questioning noises.any attempt to study the development from the noises babies make to their first spoken words leads to considerable difficulties. it is agreed that they enjoy making noises, and that during the first few months one or two noises sort themselves as particularly expressive as delight, pain, friendliness, and so on. but since these cant be said to show the babys intention to communicate, they can hardly be regarded as early forms of language. it is agreed, too, that from about three months they play with sounds for enjoyment, and that by six months they are able to add new words to their store. this self-imitation(模仿) leads on to deliberate(有意的) imitation of sounds made or words spoken to them by other people. the problem then arises as to the point at which one can say that these imitations can be considered as speech.it is a problem we need to get our teeth into. the meaning of a word depends on what a particular person means by it in a particular situation; and it is clear that what a child means by a word will change as he gains more experience of the world. thus the use, at seven months, of “mama” as a greeting for his mother cannot be dismissed as a meaning-less sound simply because he also uses it at another time for his father, his dog, or anything else he likes. playful and meaningless imitation of what other people say continues after the child has begun to speak for himself. i doubt, however,whether anything is gained when parents take advantage of this ability in an attempt to teach new sounds.46. before children start speaking _.a. they need equal amount of listeningb. they need different amounts of listeningc. they are all eager to cooperate with the adults by obey spoken instructionsd. they cant understand and obey the adults oral instructions47. children who start speaking late _.a. may have problems with their listeningb. probably do not hear enough language spoken around themc. usually pay close attention to what they heard. often take a long time in learning to listen properly48. a babys first noises are _.a. an expression of his moods and feelingsb. an early form of languagec. a sign that he means to tell you somethingd. an imitation of the speech of adults49. the problem of deciding at what point a baby imitations can be considered as speech _.a. is important because words have different meanings for different peopleb. is not especially important because the changeover takes place graduallyc. is one that should be properly understood because the meaning of words changes with aged. is one that should be completely ignored (忽略) because childrens use of words is of-ten meaningless50. the speaker implies(意味、暗示) _.a. parents can never hope to teach their children new soundsb. children no longer imitate people after they begin to speakc. children who are good at imitating learn new words more quicklyd. even after they have learnt to speak, children still enjoy imitating（c）one morning, a blind boy sat on the steps of a building with a hat by his feet. he held a sign which said, “i am blind. please help me.”there were only a few coins in the hat. a man was walking by. he took out a few coins from his pocket and dropped them into the hat. he then took the sign, turned it around, and wrote some words on it. he put the sign back so that everyone who walked by could see the new words.soon the hat began to fill up. a lot more people were giving money to the blind boy. that afternoon the man who had changed the sign came to see how things were. the boy recognized his footsteps and asked, “are you the one who changed my sign in the morning? what did you write?”the man said, “i only wrote the truth. i said what you said, but in a different way.”what he had written was, “today is a beautiful day, but i cannot see it.”do you think the first sign and the second sign were saying the same thing?of course both signs told people the boy was blind. but the first sign simply told people to help by putting some money in the hat. the second sign told people that they were able to enjoy the beauty of the day, but the boy could not enjoy it because he was blind.the first sign simply said the boy was blind, while the second sign told people they were so lucky that they were not blind.there are at least two lessons we can learn from this simple story.the first is: treasure what you have. someone else has less. try your best to help those who need your help.the second is: be creative. think differently. there is always a better way.51. from the passage we know that .a. the boy always has a hat on his headb. the man is one of his neighborsc. the boy is blind and needs helpd. the boy works for the man52. on the sign the man wrote some words which said,“ .”a. he is blind. please help him.b. today is a beautiful day, but i cannot see itc. we are so lucky that we are not blindd. treasure what we have53. according to the passage, which of the following is true?a. the hat began to fill up after the man wrote some words on the sign.b. the man took away the few coins from the hat.c. the boy pretended to be blind, for he didnt want to go to school.d. nobody wanted to give coins to the boy.54. the underlined word “recognized” means .a. 知道b. 懂得c. 理解d. 辨认出55. according to the writer, from this simple story we can learn:a. be careful not to be blind.b. be creative. there is always a better way!c. be kind to the blind!d. dont always get, but offer!第二节（共5小题，每小题1分，满分5分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项， 请从以下选项(a、b、c、d、e和f)中选出符合各段意思的小标题，选项中有一项是多余选项。56. as a teenager, oliver
