One day the topic turned to saying “I love you”. I was shocked (震惊) to learn that not one of my students has said this to their mothers, nor had their mothers said it to them.“Does your mother love you?” “Of course,” they answered. “How do you know?” was my logical question. They responded that their moms cooked and always told them what they were doing wrong to show their caring. I was stunned (使目瞪口呆). So moms cooking and criticizing read out as “I love you”.“Then do you say I love you to her?” They agreed that getting good grades, followed by good jobs would be how they showed their love.I come from a culture where most people are expressive enough, so I repeated these questions in classes over time. Gradually, I began to get different responses. Some of them had exchanged those sentiments with their moms.One of my favorite stories of change came from a girl. When she came home from university, her mother met her at the door and hugged her. This had never happened before, but her mom said, “Now that you have gone, I have more time to myself. I noticed that in some places mothers and children hug each other and I decided it was a good idea and that I would begin hugging you.”In my family we all say “I love you” a lot. While it is true that we often say the words without having great depth of feelings at that moment, it is almost like a blessing we give each other. Those three words carry a world of meaning, even when said as a greeting, but most especially if they are the last words we say to or hear from those we love.（1）The foreign teacher _.A . comes from AmericaB . is a young womanC . is expressive enoughD . knows much about China（2）Why was the foreign teacher shocked?A . Because her students say I love you to her.B . Because the students mums dont love them.C . Because the students dont know the meaning of “I love you”.D . Because the students and their mums didnt say “I love you” to each other.（3）In paragraph 5, whats the real meaning of the moms hugging?A . She is meeting her daughter at the door.B . She loves her daughter and misses her.C . She is glad that she has more time to herself.D . She finds it interesting to hug her daughter.（4）Whats the main idea of the passage?A . Say “I love you” more to your family.B . Say “I love you” a lot to Chinese people.C . Say “I love you” as a greeting to others.D . Say “I love you” without great depth of feelings.11. （8分）阅读理解It was the day before Mothers Day this year. There was only me in the house and I was sitting in the chair thinking about my son Todd. I looked up and saw the little Mothers Day statue. Todd gave me that many years before. I put it on a shelf along with other memories（记忆）of passed days. It was hard to believe that Todd left me forever in a car accident in 2003.As I sat in my chair, lost in my memories, I thought, It would sure be nice to get something again from Todd on Mothers Day, God. I knew it was almost impossible（不可能的）, but I wasnt going to tell anyone and I even thought, This is between you and me, God. I still smiled and wondered if I might be surprised.Later that night Bill came back home from a few days work. He walked in with a rose. He gave it to me and said it was from Todd!I was really happy and moved! In the past 15 years, no one had given me anything and said it was from Todd. I knew God had heard and answered my petitions（祈求）. But I really know that love is everywhere. What important to us is to make our bad memories into good ones. （1）Todd died . A . the day before Mothers DayB . fifteen years agoC . because of a plane accidentD . on Mothers Day（2）What does the underlined word it in Paragraph 2 refer to（指代）? A . The memories about Todd.B . The rose from Bill.C . The little statue from Todd.D . Getting something from Todd.（3）What is TRUE according to the passage? A . The writer got the little Mothers Day statue in 2003.B .

Many people think that they have to accept whatever life throws at them. Theyll say, “this is my destiny (命运). I cannot change it.”Certainly not! You dont have to suffer too much. Your destiny depends on yourself, not on any other factors.I know someone who says she just accepts what life gives her because she has done everything she can to improve it. Guess what her lifestyle is? She wakes up in the morning, goes to work, comes back home, relaxes, chats with people, watches TV, then goes to sleep. Next day, the same routine cycle follows. Huh! Is this what she calls “doing her best”? She believes she has tried her best. But in fact she hasnt.Remember that you get what you pay. You just dont sit around and wait for a million dollars to fall from the sky. You have to get off the couch, get your eyes off the TV screen, get your hands off the phone. Dont expect your luck to change unless you do something about it. If something goes wrong, dont just regard it as a little failure, but use it as feedback (反馈). Learn your lesson, make the most of the situation, and do something to solve the problem. Its not enough to think positively (积极地), you also have to act positively.If someones life is in the trouble, do you just hope that things will turn out fine? Of course not! You get to do anything you can to save the person. So it is with your own life. It is not enough to hope for the best, but you have to do your best. In other words, dont just stand (or sit) there, do something to improve your life.（1）The writers attitude towards destiny is that _.A . we can change itB . we cant depend on ourselvesC . we must accept itD . we have to suffer it（2）According to the passage, what should you do if something goes wrong?A . Regard it as a little failureB . Get your hands off your phone.C . Sit around and wait for luckD . Do something to solve the problem.（3）The underlined word “turn out” in the passage means _.A . 翻转B . 关闭C . 变得D . 清空（4）From the passage, we know _.A . we only need to hope for the best in our life.B . we can get what we pay if we think positively.C . the woman has tried her best to improve her life.D . maybe our luck will change if we do something about the life（5）What would be the best title for this passage?A . Understand YourselfB . Improve Your LifeC . Believe in YourselfD . Accept Your Life13. （6分） We had one class for computers when I was in school, which was also introduced new in school and all the students did not attend it. I took it because I had free period and was interested in taking it.

They are very useful courses as it teaches you ways to use the fundamental programs which are typically used in various jobs.It is also possible you may like to do the computing course for enjoyment as some of the classes are also free .There are courses which charge a fee for skills like graphic design and photo editing . They are a lot of fun too and may also be useful when you do a job , depending on the kind of career ，someone you choose or have .
