Immediately, he said, “Yes, last Christmas you promised us a special  42 that I really wanted but you  43 gave it to me.”
The  44  was that I’d completely forgotten about it. I  45  , “Is there anything else I’ve done wrong, but I haven’t apologized  46  ?”
Again, his  47  was immediate, “Remember last Christmas when Mom said you had to go to the  48  because Kate, my little sister, was going to be born? You left us at home and  49    in a hurry. Remember?”
“Well, you left and forgot the suitcase.” I couldn’t believe he  50  all the details! “After you came back from the hospital you were  51 to see the suitcase had been opened and  52  had been thrown all over the place, and then you  53  me.”
“And you didn’t do it?” I asked.
“No, I didn’t. I was just searching for my gift.”
My heart sank. I felt  54 . I hugged Keith and asked him to  55  me. His honesty made me think of my other son, Kevin. Maybe I’d hurt his feelings, too. I went to ask him the  56    question. Kevin answered as immediately as his  57 , “Last Christmas you promised us a special toy, but you forget about it.”
58 Christmas had passed, I took my two sons to the store that day and bought them what I had promised. The  59  thing wasn’t the toy. The problem was that I’d made a promise too  60  and didn’t keep it as their mother.

小題1:根據(jù)上文，爸爸覺得愧疚，I hugged Keith and asked him to  55  me.因此是請(qǐng)求孩子原諒“forgive”，support支持criticize批評(píng)suspect懷疑。
小題1:爸爸問了另一個(gè)孩子同樣的問題，選the same。C
小題1:Kevin和Keith都是作者的兒子，那他們就是兄弟了。
小題1:后面說I took my two sons to the store that day and bought them what I had promised.說明是盡管圣誕節(jié)過去了，還是給孩子買了禮物。
小題1:根據(jù)上下文，句意是，重要的不是禮物，而是自己不遵守諾言。故選C。

In 1997, I found myself in a situation I never thought I'd be in: alone and begging for money in New York. My father had been separated from our family, and my mother had  recently died from complications related to AIDS. What I remember most about such nights is lying on the cold marble floor and using my backpack for a pillow.
Even though I had lost my family,  I made choices every single day to turn my life around. There was the haven for homeless teenagers called the Door, a non－profit organization that provided me with guidance, medical care and food, all of which kept me going while I completed my homework in train stations and under hallway lights. Perhaps the most surprising　help though, I did not seek out﹔it found me.  The New York Times told my story. In the weeks　that followed, dozens of strangers reached out to me from all across the United States. At my　high school, I began receiving handwritten letters of encouragement. Strangers showed up　bearing clothes, books, and even hugs. Since the article mentioned I was applying to Harvard, one woman knitted a blanket for me.  She attached this note to the box it was posted in: "It gets cold in those dorms. May you warm yourself knowing that people care about you".
With the help of these people, my life today bears no resemblance at all to my life then. I graduated not only from high school but also from Harvard University.
Before these people — some of them nameless— I just didn't realize how good people　could be. But now I do, and I can say that the people who helped me have forever changed me. They are the reason behind my decision to join the board at the Door so that I can be part of a small team of people opening a high school for homeless teenagers .They are the reason I dedicate my life to opening pathways for others. And they are the reason I travel around the　world helping people transform their own lives.

C．how The New York Times helps the author
D．how people help the author in different ways

Can trees talk? Yes, but not in words. Scientists have reason to believe that trees do communicate (交際) with each other. Not long ago, researchers learned some surprising things. First a willow tree attacked in the woods by caterpillars (毛蟲) changed the chemistry of its leaves and made them taste so terrible that they got tired of the leaves and stopped eating them. Then even more astonishing, the tree sent out a special smell---a signal (信號(hào)) causing its neighbors to change the chemistry of their own leaves and make them less tasty.
Communication, of course, doesn’t need to be in words. We can talk to each other by smiling, raising our shoulders and moving our hands. We know that birds and animals use a whole vocabulary of songs, sounds, and movements. Bees dance their signals, flying in certain patterns that tell other bees where to find nectar (花蜜) for honey. So why shouldn’t trees have ways of sending message?
小題1: It can be concluded from the passage that caterpillars do not feed on leaves that ______.
A．a(chǎn)re lying on the groundB．have an unpleasant taste
