Yesterday my aunt went shopping and asked me take care of my two little lovely cousins. I was busy for my homework, but I let them read picture books by themselves. Moments later, I found the pages of a book tearing and lying all over the floor. When I asked them whom did that, the elder sister slowly nodded and bent down her head. Saw that she was true sorry, I just smiled, gave her some biscuits and told her not to do that again. When his younger brother saw the biscuit, he asked why he wasn’t given any. She answered, “You don’t tear out the pages of the book, but I did.”

While I was in my 4th month of pregnancy (妊娠期) with my second child, we were preparing for a trip to Louisiana, where Marshall’s family live, to celebrate Jane’s 2nd birthday. Two days before we were to leave, we got the shocking news that I was going to lose the baby. Not knowing when this would happen, we decided to continue with our trip.

Since Marshall’s family lives on a 600-acre cattle farm, you often find that you have a lot of time to yourself to think when you are there. That is precisely what I did not want to do at this time. I told Marshall that I needed to get a good book to get lost in while I was there. I told him I heard the Harry Potter books were good, so he went out and got the first one for me.

During that trip, I totally got lost in the book, which was of great help during a time when I needed a distraction to forget about the sadness. In the book, I noticed the name “Seamus”. I vaguely remembered it was pronounced “Shamus” and I liked the sound of that. I mentioned it to Marshall and he liked it too. Toward the end of the trip, I had just 5 chapters left and I knew I was about to finish the first book, which I was pretty excited about.

Soon after we put Jane down to bed, I had started labor (分娩), so I was unable to read. The labor lasted 5 and 1/2 hours, but Marshall stayed there with me, sitting beside me and reading aloud the last 5 chapters of Harry Potter. I can never fully explain how much that helped me through the experience. And ever since then, Marshall and I both have been fans of the Harry Potter books. We remember how they helped us get through that time of our lives.

We were sad to have lost the baby, but the name Seamus started our journey toward adoption. And we gave this name to our adopted son. Though our Seamus doesn’t have a drop of Irish blood in him, the name fits him perfectly.

1.Why did the writer want a good book during the trip?

A. Because the trip to Louisiana would take a long time.

B. Because she didn’t want to think of losing her baby.

C. Because she had nothing else to do except reading.

D. Because a good book could help her enjoy her trip.

A. made the family’s trip more exciting

My eighth grade consisted of 28 classmates. We knew each other so well that most of us could distinguish each other's handwriting at a glance. Although we grew up together, we still had class outcasts．From second grade on, a small group started harassing （骚扰） two or three of the others．I was one of those two or three, though I didn't know why．In most cases when children get picked on, they aren't good at sports or they read too much or they wear the wrong clothes or they are of a different race．But in my class, we all read too much and didn't know how to play sports．We had also been brought up to carefully respect each other's race．This is what was so strange about my situation．Usually, people are made outcasts because they are in some way different from the larger group．But in my class, large differences did not exist．It was as if the outcasts were invented by the group out of a need for them．

The harassment came in the form of laughter when I talked, and rolled eyes when I turned around．If I was out on the playground and approached a group of people, they often fell silent．Sometimes, someone would not see me coming and I would catch the tail end of a joke at my expense．

There was another girl in our class who was perhaps even more rejected than I．She provided the group with a lot of material for jokes．One day one popular girl came up to me to show me something she said I wouldn't want to miss．We walked to a comer of the playground．Three or four girls there were reading aloud from a small book, which I was told was the girl's diary．

I sat down and, laughing till my sides hurt, heard my voice finally mixed with the others．Often being accepted by others is more satisfying than being accepted by oneself, even though the satisfaction does not last．Looking back, I wonder how I could have participated in making fun of this girl when I knew perfectly well how it felt．If I were in that situation today I would react differently, but I can't honestly be sure．

C．Everyone has a desire to be accepted by others．

D．One should pay somebody back in his own way．

I remembered my mother as a strong woman. She came to America when she was 12 years old, old enough to remember her homeland, young enough to forget. While learning a new language, she achieved scores and grades high enough to be admitted to Duke University. With a degree in computer science, she finally became the manager of a company in New York. My mother could give fluent speeches, say “wolves” correctly.

It was my mother who always stressed(强调) the importance of language. From the time I was born, I was read to. I would fall asleep to the sounds of my parents’ voices, either my dad’s soft accent, or my mother’s clear English. The flow of language was unbroken, and whether in Chinese or English, the stream of communication flowed through our house.

One October morning in the sixth grade, after my mother had left to catch the train to the city, I left the house for the bus stop. I was surprised when I saw our car, the door hanging open. As I went closer, I saw my mother lying on the ground.

In the hospital, it was hard to believe that the lady who lay before me was my mum. My mother couldn’t remember my name. As the leaves changed colors, it became clear that the accident had created a wall between my mother’s mind and mouth: her mind was not any less clear, but the words she spoke were not what she meant.

The trouble my mother faced taught me the importance of language. Without it, stories can not be told; directions can not be given; relations can not be formed, and knowing about anyone is impossible. Without language, communication cannot take place. Without language, one can not express the beauty of a sunset or the kindness of a stranger. The world would pass us by in silence.

63. From where might the author’s mum come to America?_________

A. China B. England C. Russia D. Canada

64. What can we infer from the second paragraph?___________

A. The author was taught to read since she was born.

B. The author’s father spoke English poorly.

C. The author couldn’t fall asleep without being read to.

D. The author’s parents taught her language by talking a lot.

65. The illness left the author’s mother unable to _________

A. think clearly B. express herself well C. speak D. hear

66. What’s this passage mainly about?___________

A. A strong mother. B. A family’s disaster.

C. The importance of language D. The way of teaching language
