cried for it Mum wept and told me that the poor little thing had been sent to a hospital It had a fever For several days I heard Mum and Dad whispering such words as hopeless pitiful and dying which sounded ominous Christmas was coming Don t expect any presents this year Dad said pointing at the socks I hung in the living room If your baby brother lives that ll be Christmas enough As he spoke his eyes filled with tears I d never seen him cry before The phone rang early on Christmas morning Dad jumped out of bed to answer it From my bedroom I heard him say What He s all right He hung up and

my country Poland is a perfect example for a place where food is particularly important When we were little children we began to understand how much a loaf of bread meant to our parents to some it might sound silly but for me the custom of kissing bread before you started cutting it was simply amazing It s not so common nowadays to treat food that way since you hardly ever bake your own bread Besides everyone would call you crazy if you tried to kiss every bread roll before you ate them But though we no longer make our food from scratch 起点 some customs have been kept that s why I feel so sorry every time I have to throw any food away even though I no longer live with my parents and nobody would blame me for this anymore Many people of our nation are still working as farmers eating what they grow and harvest and therefore enjoying everything more It s widely known that you value more anything that needs your effort in the first place In most homes in Poland 3 especially those of farmers the whole family would try and have their meals together extremely difficult now but so rewarding 值得 You can share other members troubles and successes give your children some attention or just sit down for a moment instead of rushing through life aimlessly Furthermore your body and stomach in particular will be very grateful 感激 for such a time In Poland a wedding Christmas or even a birthday is celebrated with a great meal Women in the house get together and cook sometimes for a few days before the event and the extremely good or unusual food will be remembered and widely talked about You cannot over value the importance of food in the country What s more almost everyone in Poland will be as interested in the topic as I am 1 When the writer was a child he she A found people

throw away any food because A he she makes food from scratch B his her parents would blame him her C some customs still have effect on him her D many people are still working hard as farmers 3 From the text we can learn that in Poland A most meals can be interesting topics for a long time B the whole family often have meals together nowadays C it s common for women to get together to cook for a few days D family members can know more about each other by having meals together 参考答案 1 3 B C D 阅读下列短文 从每题所给的四个选项 A B C 和 D 中 选出最佳选项 4 Will Nanfang University of Science and Technology in Shenzhen announce a new beginning for China s higher education reform It s too early to answer But its presence is challenging the Ministry of Education Even without the approval of the ministry it seems that
