　　I don't remember 2.________it first started annoying me—her hands pushing my hair that way.Finally，one night，I shouted out at her，“Don't do that anymore—your hands are too rough！” She didn't say 3.________in reply.But never again 4.________my mother close out my day 5.________that familiar expression of her love.

　　Time after time，with the passing years，my 6.________(think) returned to that night.By then I missed my mother's hands—missed her goodnight kiss on my forehead.

　　Now those hands I once thought to be so rough were still doing things for me and my family.I frequently recalled the night my young voice complained.One night，catching Mom's hand in hand，I blurted out how sorry I was for that night.I thought she'd remember 7.________did.But Mom didn't know what I 8.________(talk) about.She had forgotten—and forgiven—long ago.

　　8．was talking　妈妈不知道我在谈论什么，用过去进行时，填was talking。

　　Ⅲ.阅读理解

　　A

　　A woman from Japan，who had visited major business and investment companies in New York City，was telling a friend about her trip to the US.“I studied English before I left home.But I still was not sure that people were speaking English.”

　　Her problem is easy to understand.Americans in business are like people who are in business anywhere.They have a language of their own.Some of the words and expressions deal with the special areas of their work.Other expressions are borrowed from different kinds of work such as the theater and movie industry.

　　One such saying is “get your act together”．

　　When things go wrong in a business，an employer may get angry.He may shout，“Stop making mistakes.Get your act together.”

　　Or，if the employer is calmer，he may say，“Let us get our act together.”

　　Either way，the meaning is the same.Getting your act together is getting organized.In business，it usually means to develop a calm and orderly plan of an action.

　　It is difficult to tell exactly where the saying began.Perhaps one of the actors was nervous and made a lot of mistakes.The director may have said，“Calm down，now.Get your act together.”

　　Word expert James Rogers says the expression was common by the late 1970s.He says

　　The Manchester Guardian used it in 1978.The newspaper said a reform policy required that the British government get its act together.

　　Now，this expression is heard often when officials of a company meet.One company even calls its yearly report，“Getting Our Act Together”．

　　【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文，讲述get your act together“有条理地筹划”这个短语在商务中的应用和起源等。

　　As parents，you will never stop feeling the need to protect your kids.One of the most difficult parts of being a parent is learning how to let go.

　　Let your teens make mistakes.You show that you trust your teens enough to let them try something on their own，and you let your teens learn from experience.Since the saying is true that experience is the best teacher，letting your teens make mistakes can help them develop instinct and decision­making ability.

　　When you let your teens make mistakes，it does not mean you are turning them loose without any guidance.It simply means that you are giving up some control over their life and allowing your teens to test the waters.It is the only way your teens will develop a sense of self and a level of independence to be successful adults.

　　When you let your teens make mistakes，it also means that you allow your teens to be less than perfect.It means allowing your teens to be human，to be imperfect.Let your teens know that it is OK to make mistakes and OK to try new things，even if they are not successful.

　　Since the other way that teens learn best is by example，be willing to allow yourself to make mistakes，too.If you let your teens make mistakes，it won't go over well if you are beating yourself up over making a mistake.Show your teens that you can forgive yourself，too，and your teens will be more likely to believe you when you forgive their mistakes as well.

　　Twenty­first century teens live in a different world from the world most of us grow up in.They have instant access to information and overexposure to the media.It's not as simple as it was，but that does not mean you cannot still raise thoughtful，conscientious，productive teens.You won't be able to protect them from everything，and it's OK to let your teens make mistakes，because what is really important is being there to help them learn from the mistakes they made and apply what they learned to becoming better people.
