【文章大意】 本文讲述了一位老者收到他过去的一位学生在漫游沙漠途中找到的甘泉,深切感激学生赠予他甜美的水。从而告诉我们一个道理:当我们从别人那里收到爱的礼物时,我们应该欣赏,并表示感激,因为发自内心给予的礼物才是真正的礼物。

【12】 B 水仅仅是装载善与爱之行为的容器,而没有什么东西比善与爱更甜美了。故选B。

吉林省长白山市2017届高三第二次模拟

A

I am a 21-year-old boy, and this is my story.

One month after I graduated from high school in 2009,I was coming home from swim practice and was involved in a car accident. I was so seriously injured that I was in a coma(昏迷)for over two months at Prince Georges Hospital.

I died eight times during my coma and I couldn’t talk or communicate when I woke up. Walking was never going to happen again due to all the extreme injuries. Just like my body, my dreams were almost shattered. But I was not going to let my injuries prevent me from living my dreams.

After 14 operations and blood transfusions, I had to learn how to talk, eat, walk, shower and live independently again. When I was out of hospital, I still had to go to outpatient therapy in Waldorf, Maryland. After spending a few months in a wheelchair, I took baby steps to walk on my own. It was a miracle that I could walk again, but I wanted to prove that I could not only walk, but run. When it came true, I wanted to get back in the pool again. After a few lung tests, I was able to go in the pool a little bit each week. After a few months of swim training, I began my freshman year at St.Mary’s College of Maryland and became a proud member of the swim team.

By telling my story, I want to make a positive influence on the world. I am just trying to live each day to the fullest and inspire other people never to give up their dreams no matter how bad a situation is. I remember when I was still in my hospital bed, I would have my mom and dad push me around in my wheelchair to the other rooms to see the other patients and talk to them and their families. I wanted to let them know that everything was going to be okay. Somehow, things would work out for the best.
