I had the meanest mother in the world． other kids ate candy, I had to have cereal(谷物食品)，eggs or toast．While others had cakes and French fries，I had to eat a sandwich．But at least，I wasn’t in my suffering．My sisters and two brothers had the same mean mother as I did．

My mother knowing where we were at all times and who our friends were . She insisted if we said we’d be gone an hour, then we be gone one hour or —not one hour and one minute．She made us wear the clothes made by herself，just to money．Now you can see how she was．

The is yet to come. We had to be in bed by 9：00 each night and at 7：45 the next morning．We had to wash dishes． beds，and learn to cook．I believe she lay at night thinking up mean things to do to us．

Through the years，things didn’t a bit．We could not lie in bed，pretending to be“ ”like our friends did to miss school．Our friends’report cards had beautiful colors on them，black for passing，red for ．My mother, ，would only be content with black marks．

As the years by，we graduated from high school．Out of the four children，a couple of us !higher education than university level．With our mother us pushing and demanding， of us was allowed to drop out of school．She forced us to grow up into educated and honest adults．

Now I'm trying to my three children．I'm filled with when my children call me mean．Because，you see，I thank God，he gave me the meanest mother in the whole world．

試題分析：本文是一篇故事類短文，主要講述了作者母親的事情。作者認(rèn)為母親比較吝嗇，而且她對作者兄妹在學(xué)習(xí)和生活上要求都非常嚴(yán)，與別人家的孩子相比作者認(rèn)為他們過得并不開心，可是如今作者已經(jīng)是三個孩子的母親，這時完全理解了母親的良苦用心。

1.】A連詞辨析A．While 當(dāng)……時候，盡管； B．As當(dāng)……時候，由于，隨著；C．Unless除非； D．If如果。從前后句關(guān)系可以看出此處表示：當(dāng)別的孩子在吃糖果的時候，而作者卻不得不吃谷物，雞蛋等食品，故選A。

科目：高中英語 來源：2014-2015學(xué)年福建漳州市八校高三12月聯(lián)考英語試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

Once upon a time, there was a lovely vegetable field, on which grew a very thick tree. Both the vegetables and the tree gave the place a wonderful appearance, which was the joy of the garden’s owner. What no one knew was that the vegetables in the field and the tree couldn’t stand each other. The vegetables hated the tree’s shadow, because it left them only just enough light to survive. The tree, on the other hand, hated the vegetables because they drank nearly all the water before it could get to him, leaving him with just enough to survive.

The situation became so extreme that the vegetables got totally fed up and decided to use up all the water in the ground so that the tree would dry up. The tree answered back by refusing to give the vegetables shadow from the hot midday sun, so they both began to dry up. Before long, the vegetables were really thin and the tree’s branches were drying up.

Neither of them thought that the gardener, on seeing his vegetable field becoming worse, would stop watering it. When he did that, both the tree and the vegetables really learned what thirst was. There seemed to be no solution, but one of the vegetables, a small courgette（小胡瓜）, understood what was going on, and decided to deal with it. Despite the little water and the unbearable heat, the little courgette did all he could to grow, grow...He managed to grow so big that the gardener started watering the field again. The gardener wanted to enter that beautiful big courgette in some gardening contest.

And so the vegetables and the tree realized that it was better to help each other than to fight. They should really learn how to live in harmony with those around them, doing the best they could. So they decided to work together, using both the shadow and the water in the best combination to grow good vegetables. Seeing how well they were doing, the gardener now gave the best of care to his vegetable field, watering it better than any other field for miles around.

1.What is the problem between the tree and the vegetables?

A. They looked down upon each other.

B. They didn’t leave water to each other.

C. They couldn’t stand each other.

D. They didn’t know how to protect themselves.

2.What is the result of the fight between the tree and the vegetables?

A. They grew taller and stronger.

B. They were both drying up.

C. The tree defeated the vegetables.

D. The vegetables defeated the tree.

3.The courgette thought of ways to solve the conflict by .

A. making peace with the tree

B. working together with other vegetables

C. entering the gardening contests

D. growing big enough

4.What can we learn from this passage?

A. We ought to live in harmony with others.

B. We ought to save as much water as possible.

C. We ought to learn from each other in some ways.

D. We ought to learn to respect each other.
