　　.阅读理解

　　A

　　Our son stood up and left us.We watched as he got up from his seat，walked past us slowly，and joined the other young boys and girls walking towards the children’s classroom.His face showed a mix of fear and excitement，and he stayed close to his sister as he moved down the aisle.

　　My wife and I sat together，alone there for the first time.I began to feel sad，a longing for something I couldn’t describe well.I glanced at my wife.A tear rolled down her cheek.She was feeling the same thing.I slid over，and we held hands.Our last child was entering the first grade，and we felt part of him slipping away.He’d be in school for a full day now.He’d be more independent，and need us less often.And，he’d never again be the toddler he once was.

　　In our “stay positive” culture，many parents only see these times as a reason to celebrate.They see it as an inevitable change，and prepare themselves for the next challenge.But I couldn’t help feeling this.I didn’t want to bury my feeling of sadness.Those who protect themselves from these moments lose a great opportunity of growth.It is the kind of growth that results from pain，and makes us all more a part of the human family.

　　Half an hour later，my son returned to us，his eyes twinkling.He was excited to tell us about his new experience.We listened to him，and his smiling face helped to ease the sadness.In fact，it was impossible not to feel happy for him.

　　Loving_your_kids_is_not_always_easy.There are painful times when we see them moving away from us.But we must not avoid or run away from these feelings，for they give us the chance to increase our capacity for joy，while we are experiencing great sadness.

　　1．The author’s son stayed with his sister close maybe because ________.

　　A．he had to walk with the help of his sister

　　B．he wanted to be protected by his sister

　　C．he was not only scared but also very excited

　　D．he didn’t want to leave his parents alone

　　2．When the author’s wife saw their son leave，she was ________.

　　A．heartbroken

　　B．warm­hearted

　　C．disappointed

　　D．hopeful

　　3．We can know from the third paragraph that________.

　　A．it is wrong for parents to protect their children

　　B．many parents are very cruel to their children

　　C．it is very dangerous to meet the challenge

　　D．children can grow by joining the human family

　　4．The underlined sentence “Loving your kids is not always easy.”(in Paragraph 5) is most likely to tell us that________.

　　A．it is difficult for you to love your kids

　　B．you’d better not love your kids any longer

　　C．loving your kids sometimes makes you painful

　　D．you’re really happy to love your kids sincerely

　　5．The author has written this passage in order to tell us that________.

　　A．we shouldn’t allow our children to go to school early

　　B．sadness is a normal feeling when our children leave us

　　C．we should let our children live independently

　　D．happiness is actually as important as sadness

　　B

　　This Mother’s Day will be the 8th year I have spent without my own mother.She passed away less than a month before Mother’s Day in the year 2000.She had been ill for almost two years，and I didn’t cry when she died，or at her funeral，but on that first Mother’s Day without her.On that day，it had sunk in that this person I loved and depended on was gone forever.

　　Or was she？She still lives in family memories，in the thoughts of her friends and co­workers，in the values she had instilled in her children，and in the lovely flower gardens that she had so carefully tended.

　　She loved her gladioli and irises.Each fall she would dig the bulbs out of soil and carefully wrap them in paper.The bulbs would be stored until the following spring when they would be replanted.It seemed like a lot of effort to me，but each year her flower garden was more glorious than the year before.She put the same hard work into caring for her family，instilling in her children a sense of justice and fair play，compassion，and strong moral values so that we blossomed.

　　Share anecdotes about your mother’s life at your Mother’s Day party.Too often，we avoid speaking of those loved ones who have passed away，fearful that we will unearth sad feelings.It doesn’t have to be that way.Sharing fond memories and stories of the life we shared with her can be a healing process that binds the family together.

　　内容解读

　　作者始终没有把儿子患有先天性畸形足的情况告诉他，对此毫不知情的儿子凭借顽强的意志和不懈的努力实现了自己的梦想。

　　1．D　[上一句提到作者的孩子患有先天性畸形足，由此可知医生说经过“治疗”，孩子能够正常走路。]

　　2．C　[经过治疗，孩子可以“正常”走路，但并不能像正常人一样奔跑。]

　　3．B　[由于作者的孩子患有先天性畸形足，所以孩子“人生”的前三年是在手术中度过的。]

　　4．B　[经过长期的治疗，到他八岁那年，他走路时人们已经很难看出他(脚)有“问题”。]

　　5．A　[由本句and后的内容可知，是“附近”的孩子们在玩耍。]

　　6．C　[此处与第一段中的“he would be able to walk normally but would never run very well”相呼应。]

　　7．B　[在他上七年级的时候，他“决定”参加越野队。参加越野队是他自己的想法，而不是对别人的“承诺”，所以D项不正确。]

　　8．A　[上文提到他患有先天性畸形足，由此可知他也许“觉察”到了虽然自己倍加努力，却不能和其他孩子一样奔跑自如。]

　　9．C　[空后的“did not come naturally to him”有暗示。]

　　10．C　[此处表示的是让步关系，“虽然”整个队都参加训练，但只能选拔七名最优秀的队员参加比赛。]

　　11．D　[经过选拔后，只有最优秀的七名队员才有“机会”为学校赢得荣誉。]

　　12．A　[上文提到他决定参加越野队并付出了艰辛的努力，由此可知，他“继续”每天跑四到五英里。]

　　13．C　[自己的孩子发着高烧仍然坚持训练，作者自然感到非常“担心”，所以才在放学后去找他。]

　　14．B　[下一句提到他坚持跑完全程，由此可知作者问他感觉如何时，他的回答是“不错”。]

　　15．C　[根据常识可知，人们长时间奔跑会流“汗”。]

　　16．C　[虽然他发着高烧，然而他意志坚定，“直”视前方，继续奔跑。]

　　17．A　[“我们”从未告诉他发着高烧“不能”跑完四英里。]

　　18．B　[上文提到将从整个队伍中挑选七名最优秀的队员代表学校参加比赛，由此可知经过选拔七个人的名字被确定了下来。]

　　19．A　[“我们”从未告诉他由于他患有先天性畸形足，不能期望入选前七名。]

　　20．B　[他对自身的缺陷一无所知，凭借顽强的毅力，最终实现了自己的愿望，所以此处表示的是强调意义。]

　　儿子站起来去加入到孩子们中间玩耍，作者和其妻子看到这个场面，感到一种无法言喻的伤心，眼泪禁不住地流了下来。试题中包括细节理解题、作者意图题、句意理解题和推理判断题等多种题型，从而达到了多角度考查考生能力的目的。

　　1．C　[细节理解题。由第一段中的“His face showed a mix of fear and excitement，and he stayed close to his sister as he moved down the aisle.”可知，他和姐姐在一起的原因可能是他既害怕又兴奋。]

　　2．A　[细节理解题。根据第二段中的“A tear rolled down her cheek.She was feeling the same thing.”可知，妈妈看到这个场面也很伤心。]

　　3．D　[推理判断题。本段提到家长们对待孩子离开他们的态度，再联系作者的看法可知，孩子融入社会才能够真正成长起来。]

　　4．C　[句意理解题。根据上下文的意思，特别是作者的感受可知，爱孩子会使人感到痛苦。]

　　5．B　[作者意图题。由第五段中的“But we must not avoid or run away from these feelings，for they give us the chance to increase our capacity for joy，while we are experiencing great sadness.”可知作者的写作意图。]
