When I was a foreign teacher in China,every day I taught English to my students and they taught me about China.One day the topic mined to saying “I love you”.I was shocked to learn that not one of my students had said this to their mothers,nor had their mothers said it to them.“Does your mom 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 earning.I was strummed. So mom’s cooking and criticizing read our as “I love you”.”Then how 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 queries in clauses 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(拥抱)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 little words carry a world of meaning,even when said as a greeting, but most especially if they are the lax words we say to or hear from those we love.
小题1:The foreign teacher _________.
A.comes from AmericaB.is a young woman
C.is expressive enoughD.knows much about China
小题2:Chinese people prefer to show love by __________.
A.saying “I love you”B.cooking
C.getting good grades D.doing something helpful
小题3:In paragraph 4, what’s the real meaning of the mom’s hugging?
A.She is meeting her daughter at the dour.
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.
小题4:What’s 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.
When Christie Andrews was born, she weighed less that half of one kilogram. Her heart was the size of a large coin. Her mother said Christie was so small that she could hold her in the palm of one hand.
Christie couldn’t breathe without a machine to give her oxygen. If she had been born 20 years earlier, she would probably have died at once. She needed two operations, but she survived without serious damage.
Twenty years ago , 90% of all premature(早产) babies died. Today, doctors manage to save four out of every five, because they have better machines for breathing and better ways to feed the babies.
But saving Christie’s life cost more than $ 400,000. In some cases, doctors spend 1 million dollars saving a single child. The parents usually don’t have enough money to pay. The government, an insurance company or the hospital picks up the bill. Even after a baby goes home from the hospital, it may require medical care.
Some people think it makes more sense to spend money saving 10 adults who have cancer or other diseases than saving one small baby. But nobody wants to be the doctor who has to tell parents to their faces, “Sorry, I won’t save your new child.”
小题1: Parents don’t pay their babies’ hospital bills because        .
A.they don’t have enough money
B.they would rather save cancer patients
C.doctors don’t care if the babies die
D.it makes more sense to have a bigger baby
小题2:The true cost of saving a baby may be even more than 1 million because        .
A.oxygen machine are expensive
B.the baby may require medical care after it leaves the hospital
C.doctors always charge more than they should
D.four out of five premature babies can now be saved
小题3:From the story we know that saving a cancer patient        .
A.is easier than saving a babyB.is harder than saving a baby
C.is cheaper than saving a baby D.is more common than saving a baby
小题4:The main idea of the article is        .
A.doctors must never decide whether to save babies or cancer patients
B.doctors are able to save premature babies, but the cost is very high
C.having a premature baby was cheaper and safer 20 years ago
D.Christie survived because the hospital paid her bills
A young man was about to finish school. For a long time he had   26  to get a beautiful sports car. He knew his father could well   27  it, so he  told him that a sports car was all he wanted.
Then on the morning of his graduation(毕业),he was called to his father’s room. His father told him how   28  he was to have such a fine son, and told him how   29  he loved him. He handed his son a beautiful gift box.  30 , the young man opened the box and found a lovely Bible(圣经)with his name on it. Angrily, he raised his   31  to his father and said, “With all your money you give me a Bible? ” He then   32  out of the house, leaving the Bible.
Many years passed and the young man was very   33  in business, and had a beautiful home and a wonderful family.  34  that his father was very old, he thought perhaps he should go to see him. He had not seen him   35  that graduation day. Before he could go, he received a   36  telling him that his father had died. He had to go home immediately and take   37  of the things that his father left him.
When he began to search through his father’s important
papers, he saw the still new Bible,   38     as he had left
it years ago. He opened the Bible and began to      39 
the pages. As he was reading, a car key with a tag(标牌)
dropped from the back of the Bible. On the tag was the 
  40     of his graduation, and the words “PAID IN
FULL”. Sadness and regret(悔恨)filled his heart.
