One evening I went out and left my 17-year-old son in charge of his 8-year-old brother and 4-year-old sister.On this occasion,the work was made less troublesome by the presence of his girlfriend.I left with complete confidence that the older children would do a wonderful job of babysitting the younger children.Later,I discovered that complete confidence was the last thing I should have left home with. I had decided to return home earlier than planned so that my son and his girlfriend could go out.I called home with this happy news.But instead of hearing his cheerful,grateful voice on the other end of the line,all I heard was the sound of a telephone ringing. It was,I should point out,after 10 p.m.,when the two younger children should have been in bed.and when the two older children should have been answering the phone.“I’ll give him a lesson.”I said.I decided they must be outside.Why they might be outside at 10∶30 on a winter night I had no idea,but it was the only explanation I could come up with. Finally,in desperation,I called his girlfriend’s house.After what seemed like countless rings,his girlfriend answered.“Yes,”she said brightly,“He’s right here.” He came on the phone.I was not my usual calm,rational(理智的)self.After all,one of the rules of survival for modern parents is that you can’t trust modem teenagers.“Where are the children?”I said.He said they were with him.They had done nothing wrong.My son had taken the younger children over to his girlfriend’s house just for ice cream and cake.This was too good to be believed.Well,it turns out that I shouldn’t have believed it.It was only part of the truth. The following Saturday evening we were at my parents home,celebrating my birthday.My oldest son gave me the children’s gifts.Mounted and framed were a series of lovely color photographs of my children,dressed in their best clothes,and wearing their most wonderful expressions.They are pictures to treasure a lifetime,all taken by the father of my son’s girlfriend. 1.The author went out and left her eldest son in charge of the younger children because .

“Dr.Papaderos,what is the meaning of life?” The usual laughter followed,and people stirred(骚动)to go.Papaderos held up his hand and stilled the room and looked at me for a long time,asking with his eyes if I was serious and seeing from my eyes that I was. “I will,answer your question.” Taking his wallet out of his hip pocket,he fished into a leather billfold and brought out a very small round mirror,about the size of a quarter.And what he said went like this: “When I was a small child,during the war,we were very poor and we lived in a remote village.One day,on the road,I found the broken pieces of a mirror.A German motorcycle had been wrecked in that place. I tried to find all the pieces and put them together,but it was not possible,so I kept only the largest piece.This one,and,by scratching it on a stone.I made it round. I began to play with it as a toy and became fascinated by the fact that I could reflect light into dark places where the sun would never shine——in deep holes and crevices(裂缝)and dark closets. It became a game for me to get light into the most inaccessible places I could find. I kept the little mirror,and,as I went about my growing up,I would take it out in idle moments and continue the challenge of the game.As I became a man,I grew to understand that this was not just a child’s game but a metaphor for what I might do with my life.I came to understand that I am not the light or the source of light.But light——truth,understanding,knowledge——is there,and it will shine in many dark places only if I reflect it. I am a fragment(碎片)of a mirror whose whole design and shape l do not know.Nevertheless,with what I have I can reflect light into the dark places of this world——into the black places in the hearts of men—and change some things in some people.Perhaps others may see and do likewise.This is what I am about.This is the meaning of my life.” 1.On hearing the author’s question,Dr.Papedotes at first. A.laughed at his foolishness B.wasn’t sure of the answer C.doubted his seriousness D.wasn’t interested at all 2.How did Dr.Papaderos get the small round mirror when he was a child? A.He found it on the road and made it round. B.A dying German soldier gave him as a present. C.He chanced to find it in the street while playing. D.He put the broken pieces together and made it. 3.Why did Dr.Papaderos like the small round mirror so much as a child? A.Because he was too poor to afford other toys. B.Because it could shine the places where tke sun couldn’t reach. C.Because he believed it would bring good luck to him. D.Because it tofd him a lot about what life really meant to him. 4.The underlined“metaphor”in the 7th paragraph most probably means . A.symbol B.source C.light D.purpose 5.Which of the following might be the best title for the passage? A.A Special Game in the Childhood B.A Broken Piece of Mirror C.Dr.Papaderos’Experience D.The Meaning of Life

阅读表达（共5小题，每小题3分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，并根据短文后的要求回答问题（请注意问题后的字数要求）。 ［1］Today,millions of people want to learn or improve their English but it is difficult to find the best method.Is it better to study in Britain or America or to study in your own country? ［2］The advantages of going to Britain seem obvious.Firstly,you will be able to listen to the language all the time you are in the country.You will be aurrounded completely by the language wherever you go.Another advantage is that you have to speak the language if you are with other people.In Italy,it is always possible,in the class,to speak Italian if you want to and the learning is slower. ［3］On the other hand, staying at home to study.You don’t have to make big changes to your life.As well as this,it is also a lot cheaper than going to Britain but it is never possible to achieve the results of living in the UK.If you have a good teacher in Italy,I think you can learn in a more concentrated way than being in Britain without going to a school. ［4］so,in conclusion,I think that if you have enough time and enough money,the best choice is to spend some time in the UK.This is simply not possible for most people,so being here in Italy is the only viable(可行的)option.The most important thing to do in this situation is to maximise your opportunities:to speak only English in class and to try to use English whenever possible outside the class. 1.What is the text mainly about?(no more than 10 words)
2.Which sentence in the text is closest in meaning to the following one? All the people and everything around are related with English,and you’ll have more opportunities. 3.Fill in the blank in Paragraph 3 with proper words.(no more than 8 words)
4.What suggestion does the author give to those who learn English in their own country?(no more than 20 words)
5.Translate the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 into Chinese.
