and had them sitting before me on the floor while I was teaching them to wave their armsWhen she asked why, I informed her that it was my school of danceShe was amused, and placing herself at the piano, she began to play for meThis school continued and became very popularLater on, little girls of the neighborhood came and their parents paid me a small sum to teach themThis was the beginning of what afterwards proved a very well-paid occupation My mother took me to a famous ballet teacher, but his lessons did not please meWhen the teacher told me to stand on my toes , I asked him why , and when he replied “ Because it is beautiful ,” I said that it was ugly and against nature and after the third lesson , I left his class , never to returnThis stiff and commonplace gymnastics which he called dancing only disturbed my dreamI dreamed of a different danceI did not know just what it would be but I was feeling out towards an invisible world into which I guess I might enter if I found the key My art was already in me when I was a little girl , and it was owing to the heroic and adventurous spirit of my mother that it was not stifled(压抑) I believe that whatever the child is going to do in life should be begun when it is very youngI wonder how many parents realize that by the so-called education they are giving their children, they are only driving them into the commonplace, and refuse them of any chance of doing anything beautiful or original41The attitude of the authors mother toward her school of dance was one of_ Aboring Btired Csupports Dcold 42The author thought that ballet was _ Athe most graceful dance Bstiff, ugly and unnatural Ca dance that she had dreamed of Dan invisible world into which she guessed she might enter 43According to the author, she owed her success in art to _ Athe good education her parents gave her Bthe support of her understanding and adventurous mother Cher inborn talent Dher ballet teacher 44The central idea of the passage is that _ Aparents should try to discover the natural gift in their children and help to develop it while they are young Bthe so-called good education parents give their children only drives them into the commonplaces and refuses them of any chance of doing anything original Cmothers should e heroic and adventurousDballet is no good as a form of dance B “BANG!” the door caused a reverberation (回声) It was just standing there, with father standing on one side, and I on the other sideWe were both in great anger“Never set foot in this house again!” stormed fatherWith tears rolling out of my eyes; I rushed out of the flat and ran along the streetThe street lights were shining, causing rather sad-feelingI wandered aimlesslyA young father who held a child in his arms walked past meI felt as if I saw my childhood from another space: happy and carefreeBut nowI dont know whether it is because I have grown up or because dad is getting oldWe differ in our ways of thinkingHe always put his opinions and codes of behavior on meWhenever I do something wrong, he never admits itWe are just like two people coming from two different worldsIt feels like there is an iron door between us that can never be openedI wandered in the streets, without a destination in mindMy heart was frozen on this hot summer nightAs I walked on there were fewer and fewer people on the streets, until I had only the street lights to keep me companyWhen I finally reached the high-rise apartment block in which I lived ,I saw that the light was still onI thought to myself: “Is father waiting for me, or is he still angry with me?”In fact, it was nothingPerhaps, dad was throwing away some of his old stampsPerhaps he thought they were uselessI never had the courage to tell him that I liked collecting stampsI cant stand his outrageous(蛮横的)words: “I cant throw you away, let alone these old papers?”All the lights were off except Dad was always like thisMaybe he didnt know how to express himselfAfter shouting at me, he never showed any mercy or any moments of regretAfter an argument he has the habit of creeping up in my sleep and then petting me under the coversThis was how he always wasHe has been a leader for so long that telling everyone else what to do has become his second natureThe light was still on“Am I wrong?” I whispered ,maybeWith the key in hand, I was as nervous as I had ever beenAt last, I decided to open the doorAs soon as I opened the door tears ran down my cheeksI suddenly realized that the iron door that I had imagined between us did not exist at allLoveit second to none45Decide which is the best order of the following according to what happened in the passage aI opened the door and entered the house bSadly I ran out into the street cI reached the place where I lived and saw my house still brightly lit dI thought of my fathers kindness towards me eI walked about in the street without any aim Ab,e,d,c,a Bb,e,c,d,a Cb,e,a,c,d Db,e,c,a,d46What made the writer think of his childhood?
