(2007年普通高等學校夏季招生考試英語（遼寧卷）)D

All her life, my mother wanted busy children. It was very important that her house should remain at all things clean and tidy.

You could turn your back for a moment in my mother's house, leave a half written letter on the dining room table, a magazine open on the chair, and turn around to find that my mother had "put it back where it belonged." as she explained.

My wife, on one of her first visits to my mother's house, placed a packet of biscuits on an end table and went to the kitchen to fetch a drink. When she returned, she found the packet had been removed. Confused(疑惑的), she set down her drink and went back to the kitchen for more biscuits, only to return to find that her drink had disappeared. Up to then she had guessed that everyone in my family held onto their drinks, so as not to make water rings on the end tables. Now she knows better.

These disappearances had a confusing effect on our family. We were all inclined to (有......的傾向) forgetfulness, and it was common for one of us, upon returning from the bathroom, to find the every sign of his work in progress had disappeared suddenly. "Do you remember what I was doing?" was a question frequently asked, but rarely answered.

Now my sister has developed a second-hand love of clean windows, and my brother does the cleaning in his house, perhaps to avoid having to be the one to lift his feet. I try not to think about it too much, but I have at this later time started to dust the furniture once a week.

68. Which of the following is TRUE about my mother?

A. She enjoyed removing others' drinks.             B. She became more and more forgetful.

C. She preferred to do everything by herself.      D. She wanted to keep her house in good order.

69. My wife could not find her biscuits and drink in my mother's house because _______.

A. she had already finished them                        B. my mother had taken them away

C. she forgot where she had left them                 D. someone in my family was holding them

70. The underlined part to the fifth paragraph suggests that my sister _______.

A. is happy to clean windows                                   B. loves to clean used windows

C. is fond of clean used windows                       D. likes clean windows as my mother did

71. This passage mainly tells us that _______.

A. my mother often made us confused                B. my family members had a poor memory

C. my mother helped us to form a good habit     

D. my wife was surprised when she visited my mother

Dear Michelle:

     Why can't my daughter manage her life better? She is 17 and an honor student, but she seems to be wasting her life away with a boyfriend who is holding her back.

    He consumes every waking, minute of her precious time and smooth-talks her as well.

    His goal is to get her to agree to go to the college of his choice, not her choice, and because his grades are lower, his choice will be limited.

    I feel like I want to rescue her, but she pushes me away and shuts me out. She has only brought us pride and joy; and now this! Help!

                                                            A worried mother

Dear Mother of a 17-year-old Girl:

    Hmmmmm. What's the matter with kids today? Remember that song from "Bye Bye

Birdie"?

    Well if you do not, let me fill you in about teenagers and their life-management skills.Do not expect too much too soon because at the ripe age of 17, life-management is not within their reach, not should it be.

    Life experience creates both the conditions and the skills for management, and if management went before experiene, there would be tittle of it.

    Your daughter is an honor student for good reasons. She is smart, studies with

intelligence and you have given her good Values.

    When the time comes for her to apply for college, and she visit the ones that were specifically desigened for student the top of their grade, she will most likely break away from her boyfriend's influenee.

    It is rare for an honor student to change the path of their academic career for puppy love. That being said, them might be some adoldscent wisdom in her behavior after all.

    Perhaps she is choosing to worry you, her parents, for unconscious reasons. Being such a good girl and being a steady source of joy might have become a bit too much for her.

    Let your daughter have her own private moment of 11^th grade rebellion. She deserves a break from perfection.

     D. A 17-year-old girl and her mother

When we’re little, our mother is the center of our attention, and we are the center of hers. So our mother’s characteristics leave an indelible(持久的)impression, and we are forever attracted to people with her facial features, body type, personality, even sense of humor. If our mother is warm and giving, as adults we tend to be attracted to people who are warm and giving. If our mother is strong and even-tempered, we are going to be attracted to a fair-minded strength in our mates.

              The mother has an additional influence on her sons: she not only gives them clues to what they will find attractive in a mate, but also affects how they feel about women in general. So if she is warm and nice, her sons are going to think that’s the way women are. They will probably grow up to be warm and responsive lovers and also be cooperative around the house.

              Conversely, a mother who has a depressive personality, and is sometimes friendly but then suddenly turns cold and rejecting, may raise a man who becomes a “dance-away lover”. Because he’s been so scared about love from his mother, he’s afraid of commitment and may pull away from a girlfriend for this reason.

              While the mother determines in large part what qualities attract us in a mate, it’s the father—the first male in our lives—who influences how we relate to the opposite sex. Fathers have an enormous effect on their children’s personalities and chances of marital happiness.

              Just as mothers influence their son’s general feelings toward women, fathers influence their daughter’s general feelings about men. If a father lavishes praise on his daughter and demonstrates that she is a worthwhile person, she’ll feel very good about herself in relation to men. But if the father is cold, critical or absent, the daughter will tend to feel she’s not very lovable or attractive.

              In addition, most of us grow up with people of similar social circumstances. We hang around with people in the same town; our friends have about the same educational backgrounds and career goals. We tend to be most comfortable with these people, and therefore we tend to link up with others whose families are often much like our own.

Why do our mother’s characteristics leave us an indelible impression?

         A. Because we are likely to be attracted to people with her characteristics.

B. Because the mother and her child are the centers of each other when her child is very young.

         C. Because our mother is better than our dad.

         D. Because our mother is a woman who is kind to us.

Which of the following is NOT true?

A. If our mother is warm and giving, we love to be together with warm and generous people.

B. If our mother is strong and well-controlled, we are going to be attracted to a fair-minded strength in our mates.

C. Mother not only gives her children clues to what they will find attractive in a mate, but also affects how they feel about women in general.

D. Fathers influence their daughter’s general feelings about men.

What does the underlined word “l(fā)avishes” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?

         A. Uses much.  B. Uses little.   C. Never uses.    D. Seldom uses.

What does the passage mainly talk about?

         A. Mothers’ influence on their sons.               

B. Parents’ influence on their children.

         C. Parents’ impression on their children.        

D. Fathers’ influence on their daughters.

Teresa was born in Yugoslavia on August 27,1910. Her parents were Albanians(阿爾巴尼亞人) and member of the Roman Catholic Church. When she was seven years old, her father was murdered. She decided not to be filled with hate because of this tragedy(悲劇). Instead, she would seek a life of love. This ambition led her to Ireland where she became a nun(修女) at the age of eighteen.

After only one year of training, she was sent to India to teach in a school called Loretto House, where the students were mostly from rich Indian families. After 15 years there, she left her duties as a teacher to “follow Christ into the slums(貧民窟).” Her heart led her away from the rich to the needs of the poor. She was then 36 years old.

Teresa no longer was affiliated(隸屬) with the Irish nuns who sent her to Loreto House but worked independently. However, her work was recognised by the Pope in Rome for she still was a nun. He allowed her to set up her own group, which was called the Missionaries of Charity(仁愛傳教修女會).

She no longer dressed as a nun in the European or Irish tradition. Instead, she put on a sari, the local dress of the Indian people. At first, people were sceptical(懷疑的) about her motives. Soon, they realised she was really interested in loving poor people, even those who were dying and had no chance of survival.

Soon, other Indian people began to spare time to help Mother Teresa. She had taught everyone that the poor and dying people need love most of all.

In 1979, she won the Nobel Peace Prize.

Why did Mother Teresa become a nun?

A. Her father was killed.                B. The hate of her father’s death.

C. She was looking for a life of love.      D. The poor life of her childhood.

Why did she leave her duties as a teacher after 15 years in Loretto House?

A. To be a teacher was too tired       B. The students in Loretto House were rich.

C. She was tired of teaching.         D. The poor in the slums needed her care.

Which of the following is WRONG?

A. Mother Teresa was a Catholic.

B. “Sari” is an Indian word that means clothing.

C. At first people didn’t believe her motives.

D. She served poor people in the slums as a teacher.

Perhaps the most important lesson the world has learned from Mother Teresa is     .

A. regular assistance               B. food and shelter

C. to care for the poor of the earth    D. protection
