阅读下列四篇短文,从每小题后所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。

Previously, I heard a story about a mother who had two daughters. She loved them very much, but two girls would fight with each other from their earliest years. As they grew older, they became total strangers. They had no contact with each other when they were adults.

This caused the mother great pain. Then, later, she had an idea. She decided to write a letter to them. In this letter, she told them how much she loved them, and how she wanted them to love each other in this way. She also gave them news of herself, and some guidance on how they might live happier lives.

When the letter was ready, she wrote out one copy for each daughter, but these copies were special. Each copy contained only every second sentence of the original letter. The copy for one daughter had only the even(偶数的) sentences, and the other daughter’s copy contained only the odd sentences. Neither copy made sense on its own. Neither contained the fullness of the mother’s message.

When the two daughters received their letters, they were puzzled. If they really wanted to know what the letters said, they would have to put the two letters together, and read them as one. That meant they must approach one another again in mutual(彼此的) love and respect.

For a long time, the mother waited in vain. Both daughters tried to understand the half-letter, but they each blamed the other for not helping them. Each daughter thought she knew her mother better.

Then one day, when the mother had almost given up hope, there was a knock at the door. There they stood, together. “We’ve come home,” they said at the same time. “We’ve finally put our letters together, and we’ve come to say how much we love you, Mum.” Then she hugged them both, tears of joy streaming down her cheeks, and welcomed them back home.

1. Why did the mother give her daughters incomplete letters?

A. She wanted to tell them her good news and bad news.

B. She hoped they would ask her for more information.

C. She hoped they would approach each other and make up.

D. She thought she could change their attitude towards her.

2. It can be inferred from the passage that _____.

A. love can neither be bought nor sold

B. faults are thick when love is thin

C. without respect, love can’t go far

D. love can help enemies become friends

3.What is the best title for this passage?

A. An Unusual Letter

B. A Mother’s Endless Love

C. Special Daughters

D. Deep Love from Daughters

 

1.C 2.D 3.A 【解析】 1. 2. 考查推理判断。从最后一段倒数第二句“We’ve finally put our letters together, and we’ve come to say how much we love you, Mum.”可知,母亲对女儿们的爱使她们化敌为友。故选D。 3.A考查标题选择。这篇文章讲述了母亲不符合常理的信使得两个女儿和好如初,重点突出的是信的特别性。故选A。
