题目内容
Sarah came running in．"Look what I found．" Over the top of the paper I was reading came a crispy long object that caused me to jump．It was a snake skin that had been shed by one of our many garden snakes．
"Isn't it beautiful?" said my wide-eyed seven-year-old．
I stared at the organic wrapper and thought to myself that it really wasn't that beautiful, but I have learned never to appear uninterested with children．They see only good quality and excellence in the world until educated otherwise．
"Why does it do this?" Sarah asked．
"Snakes shed their skin because they need to renew themselves," I explained．"Why do they need to renew themselves?" Sarah asked．
I suddenly remembered an article on this page many years ago where the writer was expressing her concept of renewal．She used layers of paper over a wall to describe how we hide our original selves, and said that by peeling away those layers one by one, we see the original beneath．"We often need to shed our skins and those coatings that we cover ourselves with," I said to my now absorbed daughter．" We outgrow some things and find other ones unwanted or unnecessary．Tills snake no longer needs this skin．It is probably too crinkly （起皱的） for him, and he probably doesn't think he looks as smart in it as he once did．"
Sarah was getting the point．As we talked, I knew that she began to understand, although slightly, that renewal is part of progress; that we need to take a good look at ourselves, our rooms, schoolwork and creativity, and see what we need to keep and what we need to cast off．I was careful to point out that this is a natural consequence of their growth．
" I see, Dad," said Sarah and jumped off my lap and ran off．
I hoped she would remember this．That often, in order to find our real selves underneath the layers of community and culture with which we cover ourselves year after year, we need to start examining these layers．We need to gently peel some away, as we recognize them to be worthless or unnecessary; or at best, store the ones thrown away as mementoes （念想） of our promotion to a better vitality or spirit．
57．At the first sight of the snake skin, the author was ______．
A．scared B．puzzled C．uninterested D．excited
58．Sarah learned from her father that renewal is ______．
A．to recover the layers inside B．to review what has been done
C．a natural part of getting mature D．the process of finding the unwanted
59．It can be inferred from the passage that the author ______．
A．dislikes the snake skin at all B．shows concern for nature and culture
C．can grasp the chance to educate children
D．often encourages his daughter to raise questions
60．The author mainly tells the reader that ______．

Sarah came running in saying, "Look what l found. " Over the top of the paper I was reading I saw a long object that made me jump. It was a piece of snakeskin that had been shed （脱皮) by one of our garden snakes.
'Isn't it beautiful?" said my wide-eyed 7~year-old daughter. I stared at the organic wrapper and thought to myself that it really was not that beautiful, but I did not want to disappoint Sarah. Everything children see for the first time is elementary to their sense of beauty and creativity. They see only merit (忧点) and excellence in the world.
"Why does it do this?" Sarah asked. I like to teach my children that there is something else going on besides what they see in front of them. "Snakes shed their skin because they need to renew themselves," I explained.
"Why do they need to renew themselves?" Sarah asked. "We often need to shed our skins, those coatings that we cover ourselves with," I said to my now absorbed daughter. "We outgrow some things and find other stuff unnecessary. This snake no longer needs this skin. It is probably too old, and the snake probably doesn't think it looks as smart in the skin as it once did. Like buying a new suit. "
Of course, I'm sure this explanation won't suit naturalists. But Sarah got the point. As we talked, I knew that she began to understand that renewal is part of progress; that we need to take a good look at ourselves, and rooms and schoolwork and creativity, and she began to see what we need to keep and what need to cast off. I was careful to point out that this is a natural process, not one to be forced.
"Snakes don't peel off their skin when they feel like it," I explained. "lt happens as part of their growth. "
"I see, Dad. " said Sarah. She then jumped off my lap, grabbed the snakeskin, and ran off.
I hoped she would remember this. Often, in order to find our real selves underneath the layers of community and culture we are cloaked (掩饰) in year after year, we need to start examining these layers. We need to gently peel some away, as we recognize them to be worthless, unnecessary, or flawed (有缺陷的); or at best, remember the things we discard（丢掉）to teach us how we can improve.
