13、When I was ten, my sisters and I were amazed at our neighbor’s Christmas tree. We returned home from their house and decided that we must have one of our own. In our house we never had enough money for a Christmas tree.
In fact, we insisted so much that my father had no choice but to agree. “Yes!” he finally said.“This year we will have a
Christmas tree.” Our mouths dropped open at the thought of having our own tree. Then Dad said,“I’ll do it myself.”We followed him around the house as he gathered up the materials he would need, We all sat close to him, carefully watching everything he did. He passed the thread around the first nail on the corner of a box, then back down to the second nail on the box, and up again to the nail, until right there before our eyes a green Christmas tree began to take shape. He carefully did the same with all of the 4 nails in the box and when he had finished, he said,“Now you can decorate it.”
I don’t remember where the decorationscame from, but they were red and small and to us they just looked so beautiful and perfect for our tree. When we finished decorating it, we proudly invited all our friends over to see our Christmas tree. We were so happy, not only because it looked so pretty, but because my father had made it himself. It truly was the most beautiful Christmas tree we had ever seen.
Years later, things got better and Dad was able to buy a proper Christmas tree which we would happily decorate. However, my sisters and I will never forget the night when we got our first Christmas tree.

14、“Father, do you see Mother in your dreams?” the young girl asks. “You know sometimes I do.”
“Mother comes to see me a lot, you know. We sit and talk.” The father smiles. “How is your homework coming along?”
“Why do I have to study so hard?”
“It is what your mother would have wanted!”
She regrets speaking her mind. “I’m sorry, Father, I shouldn’t have said that.” She looks up and sees his eyes well up with tears.
“It’s okay, love,” he gets up and pours himself a drink. “I’ll just sit outside for a while. You finish up your work, okay?”
“I’m sorry, Father; Mother did love you very much. She told me all the time.”
“Homework, first, eh? Then we can chat about your mother.”
He heads off outside and sits in his usual chair, looking around the courtyard. The whole area relaxes the mind and somehow soothes the soul.
“All finished, Father. May I get a drink and sit with you? I have some questions.”
She comes with two drinks one for him and one for herself. He looks surprised. She never really liked him having a drink. Although he had cut back a lot from before he brought her here, it still seemed strange.
“Mother told me all about you. That is before she passed away. We would laugh together at your love stories.”
He listens without uttering a single sound.
“Why didn’t you come and take her away with you? She really wanted that. Did you know that?”
Her father looks at his daughter lovingly. “Circumstances(情况) were difficult back then. It was just the way things were. When it cam e time to…” he sighs. “To visit her it was too late.”
The girl smiles. “I hope I will have the same kind of love you and mother had.”
“Without all the heartache,” her father adds.
“She always knew you loved her. She told me every day,” the child mentions cheerfully. “I saw her crying sometimes when she read your letters.”
“Did she make you promise to look after me?” she inquires.
“She asked me to take care of you.”
“You promised her, didn’t you?”
“Yes, I did.”
“It is nice out here, isn't it? Mother would have been very happy here.”
She talks with some authority. Her father remains silent. A smile comes to his weary brow. He nods his head.
“Mother wanted me to give you something. I think now the time is right.” She runs to her room. Upon returning she hands h er father a book. “It’s mother’s diary! She wanted me to give it to you.”
He takes the book and holds it in his trembling hands, “Thank you.”
“Mother said you would understand things better.”
“Wise woman, your mother.”
He places the book on the table as he gets up. The girl gets up and wraps herself around her father.
“I love you.” she looks up at his face.
He picks her up and hugs her. “I love you, too.” His voice trembles.
“It’s okay, Father. We have each other now and mother is in both of us.”
He kisses her head.
“Time you went to bed,” her father softly says.
He puts her down and she scampers off to get washed and ready for bed.
Clearing up everything he checks on his daughter. She is in bed waiting for her good night kiss. He tucks her in and bids her goodnight.
Just as he is to leave, she tells him. “Mother told me she adopted (收养)me when I was a baby.”
He stands at her bedroom door. Words fail him. Yes, he knew she was adopted.
“I am really lucky for being loved by my parents, even if I am not really theirs.”
“You trying to bring on the water works?” he tells her.
She giggles, “Goodnight, Father. I love you.”
“Love you, too.”
His face lights up as he wipes his dampened eyes.
The door closes and the child falls asleep dreaming of her mother.
Sitting outside he pic ks up the diary and opens it and reads the first line: “I love you, my dearest, if only things could have been different…”

15、What’s the best way to remember our happiest moments, like a birthday or festival? I bet you would answer , “Take lots of photos!” Well, here is a great surprise. People who always take photos may actually be harming(伤害) their memory, because they’re not concentrating on the event itself. That’s according to new research by Fairfield University, Connecticut, in the US. They call this the “photo-taking impairment(损害) affect”.
“People so often take out their cameras almost mindlessly to catch a moment, to the point that they are missing what is happening right in front of them,” Henkel and her team decided to perform an experiment. They wanted to find out whether taking photos in a museum weakened(减弱) a visitor’s memory of what they had seen. So they simply told a group to look around the museum, and either take photos of the items on display, or try to remember what they had seen. In addition(另外), the amount(数量) of detail(细节) they remembered was worse than those who didn’t take photos. “These results show how the mind’s eye and the camera’s eye are not the same,” said Henkel.
But don’t put your camera down just yet. Other studies have found that looking back at old photos helps us remember an event, compared to just taking a photo and forgetting about it. So next time you’re thinking of taking a photo, just think: is it better to look at the beauty around you with your own eyes, or behind the eye of the camera?
1．（小题1）When we take photos, we _________.
A．fail to focus on the event itself

C．The experiment aimed to learn what people were interested in at the museum.
D．People who took photos in the museum could remember less details.
3．（小题3）Accor ding to the passage, we’d better _________.
A．never use our cameras
B．remember an event by heart
C．always remember an event with the help of a camera
D．see everything only with our own eyes
4．（小题4）What do the results of the experiment show us?
A．The mind’s eye and the camera’s eye are not the same.
B．People remember happiest moments by taking photos.
C．Looking back at old photos helps us remember an event.
D．People don’t like taking photos.
5．（小题5）Where can we probably read this passage?
A．The entrance of a museum.
B．A guidebook on how to take good pictures.
C．An instruction of how to use a camera.

18、If music makes you smart and exercise helps you to think, surely exercising to music can turn you into a person who is better at learning and understanding.
A team of scientists from Ohio State University did experiments on 33 volunteers. They found that person who
exercised while listening to Italian musician Antonio Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons did much better in language ability tests than without music. The volunteers said they felt better after exercising with or without the music. But their improvement on the test doubled （加倍）after listen ing to the music during exercise. “Exercise seems to cause positive （积极的）changes in the nervous system and have a direct result on learning ability,” said the psychologist（心理学家）Charles Emery. Scientists have found that music can be good for health and education. It helps relieve stress, sadness and nervousness, encourages relaxation or sleep, wakes up the body and improves memory and thoughts.
Psychologists have been using Mozart’s music, especially his violin pieces, to help children with speech disorders. Mozart is often chosen because his music is not over-exciting. A study showed students who often exercise to Mozart’s music go on to score higher marks in tests. With important exams drawing near, your parents will not probably allow you to listen to music. But perhaps now you have good reasons to argue with them.
1．How many great musicians are mentioned in the passage?
A．Two. B．Three. C．Four. D．Thirty-three.
2．What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A．Students should not listen to music before exams.
B．Children are supposed to follow their parents’ words .
C．Music might help student to get higher grades in tests.
D．There is no reason for children to argue with parents.
3．What does the underlined word “relieve” mean in Chinese?
A．加强B．减轻C．提高D．接替
4．Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A．Music usually makes people too excited to go to sleep.
B．Scientists often use Mozart’s music for it is really exciting.
C．Exercising without music seems to cause many negative changes.
D．Students can improve their studies greatly after exercising to music.
5．Which is the BEST title for this passage?
A．Scientists suggest great music.
B．Music and exercise lead to stress.
C．Exercising to music makes you smarter.
D．Volunteers listened to Mozart’s violin pieces.

19、Hi，Mother Iceberg，
Your worry is very common to parents in China．
As far as I'm concerned，it is not quite right for you to do so．My reasons are as follows．
Firstly，too much pressure leads to lack of time to participate in after﹣classactivities．As a result，your daughter can't get fully developed．Furthermore，by no means is punishment a wise choice to help her build self﹣confidence，which is of great importance and value to a person．
So I suggest you take your friends'advice．Instead of putting too much pressure on you daughter，it is more advisable to allow her more time for other activities．Besides，you might as well let her make mistakes of her own as we teenagers often do and give her support and encouragementin time．
I hope you will find these suggestions helpful．
Zhang Jia ．。
