题目内容
I’ve loved my mother’s desk since I was just tall enough to sit above the top of it. Mother sat writing letters. Standing by her chair, looking at the ink bottle, pens, and white paper, I decided that the act of writing must be a most wonderful thing in the world.
Years later, during her final illness, Mother kept different things for my sister and brother. “But the desk,” she said again, “ is for Elizabeth.”
I never saw her angry, never saw her cry. I knew she loved me; she showed in action. But as a young girl, I wanted to have heart-to-heart talks between mother and daughter. They never happened. And a gulf opened between us. I was “too emotional(易动感情的)”. But she lived “on the surface(表面)”.
As years passed and I had my own family. I loved my mother and thanked her for our happy family. I wrote to her in careful words and asked her to let me know in any way she chose that she did forgive me.
My hope turned to disappointment, then little interest and, finally, peace — it seemed that nothing happened. I couldn’t be sure that the letter had even got to Mother. I only knew that I had written it, and I could stop trying to make her into someone she was not.
But the present of her desk told me, as she’d never been able to, that she was pleased that writing was my chosen work. I cleaned the desk carefully and found some papers inside — a photo of my father and a one-page letter, folded(折叠) and refolded many times. It was my letter.
“In any way you choose, Mother, you always chose the act that speaks louder than words.”

试题分析:本文主要讲了作者从小就喜欢母亲的书桌,她和母亲之间从未心与心的交谈,因此她们之间有代沟。作者成年后,给母亲写信希望她原谅她,但一直没有收到回信,母亲在最后时刻把书桌留给了作者,作者深刻地感受到母亲表面上很冷酷,实际上内心很体贴自己的女儿。
小题1:推理判断题。根据I cleaned the desk carefully and found some papers inside – a photo of my father and a one-paper letter, folded and refolded many times. It was my letter. “In any way you choose, Mother, you always chose the act that speaks louder than words.”从这些细节可以看出我的母亲表面上很冷酷,实际上内心很体贴自己的女儿。故选A。
小题2:语义猜测题。根据文中描述,作者和妈妈从未心与心的谈话,她们之间出现了分歧,所以此题选B。
小题3:标题归纳题。根据全文内容,妈妈的书桌是贯穿全文的一条线索,所以文章最好的题目是妈妈的书桌,可知答案为C。
