One of the most stressful days of Susan McFrederick’s life was watching her son get wheeled away for surgery (手术) hours after he was born in 2011.
But after the operation, Susan burst into tears for a different reason: across the cut on their newborn son’s back was a sweet winter scene, hand-drawn on his bandages.
“There were rolling hills of snow, a pine tree and a snowman with a hat and broom,” she recalled. It was extremely touching and comforting to know that somebody had taken the time to do that for my family. It was a moment I’ll never forget.”
Susan soon learned the artist was her son’s surgeon, Robert Parry, who discovered another way to use his hands in the mid-1980s during his internship (实习期) at a children’s medical center, where he saw one of his colleagues cut out heart and shark shapes to decorate children’s bandages.
“My first reaction was, ‘What is he doing? Hey, that’s kind of neat,’” Parry recalled. “I especially liked the reactions of the parents and the patients when they saw his artwork. The smiles took everyone’s attention from the surgery. Then I decided to follow suit.”
Parry quickly graduated from his early hearts and sharks, and started to surprise families with drawings that captured young patients’ personalities. From Snoopy to Spider-Man and bears to butterflies, there isn’t much he hasn’t drawn. Most kids want super heroes sports team logos or princesses, while babies often receive scenes with flowers, trees and sea creatures. During the last 30 years, Parry estimates he has left examples of his handiwork over the stitches (伤缝线) of more than 10,000 children.
“During a time of stress for families, it’s nice to be able to help them smile and laugh,” Parry said. “This is something positive that I can do for them, which is what I like most about it.”
For Parry, the reward is knowing he hopefully made a difference in a child’s life and except for his drawings on bandages, “they can go on and live their lives and never know I was in it,” he said.
He’s not ready to retire, but he’s found a new hobby to keep his hands skillful in the years to come.
“I’ve taken up knitting (编织), Parry said. “Hats, sweaters, gloves — I enjoy it all. But mostly, I enjoy giving everything away.”
41. Susan burst into tears after her baby’s operation because she was ________.
A. stressed B. unsatisfied C. moved D. heartbroken
42. How did Parry get the idea of decorating children’s bandages?
A He was encouraged by his patients.
B. He was required to learn the skill during his internship.
C. He was inspired by his colleague.
D. He was encouraged by Susan to show his genius for art.
43. Parry’s artworks during the last 30 years show that he ________.
A. took into consideration the tastes of individual patients
B. knew more about his patients than their parents
C. devoted himself more to art than to medicine
D. created a large number of works beyond his expectations
44. What does Parry expect to achieve with his artworks?
A. To get a reward from the artistic circle.
B. To lift the spirits of his patients and their parents.
C. To make a difference in his dull medical career.
D. To win the admiration of his colleagues.
45. What can we learn about Parry from the last two paragraphs of the passage?
A. He is eager to show others his new skills.
B. He is more interested in knitting than drawing.
C. He is looking forward to life after retirement.
D. He enjoys trying new ways to help others.

C
Most of us don’t know the reasons anymore but people today follow them because they are good fun.
Today the bride (新娘) carries flowers but long ago she carried strong-smelling grass. This was to frighten away the evil spirits and to cover the smell of people who do not wash often. People also used to believe that the bride brought good luck, so they would try to get something from her. Today, the bride will offer the guests some good luck by throwing the flowers to them after the wedding. It is said that if you catch the flowers, you will be the next one to get married. Of course, many of the single girls at a wedding try to catch the flowers.
In early times, the bridesmaids (伴娘) and the bride all wore similar dresses. This was to confuse the evil spirits. Now bridesmaids still wear similar dresses but the bride wears a different dress that is often white. Many brides wear veils (面纱) over their faces. This comes from a time when the young couple was not allowed to see each other before the wedding. The families were afraid that the bridegroom might not like the bride. So he was only allowed to lift her veil just before the wedding. By this time it was too late to refuse to marry her.
Brides often wear “something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue”. In earlier times, if the bride didn’t do this, she felt she would be in danger from the evil spirits. Wearing “something old” represents the journey between being single and being married. “Something new” represents the change from being a child to being an adult. “Something borrowed” means if you borrow something from a happily married couple, it will bring you good luck. And “something blue” comes from a time when the edge of the bride’s dress was blue which represented purity.
46. The passage mainly tells us ________.
A. today’s wedding customs B. the history of wedding customs
C. why brides wear veils D. what brides wear at weddings
47. Why did the bride carry strong-smelling grass in the past?
A. To keep the evil spirits and unpleasant smell of some people away.
B. To cover the unpleasant smell of her and keep the evil spirits away.
C. To bring good luck to the bridesmaids.
D. To throw it exactly to the bridesmaids.
48. What do we know about the wedding customs in the past from the third paragraph?
A. The bridesmaids wore completely different dresses from the brides.
B. The bridesmaids also needed to wear veils over their faces.
C. The groom could refuse to marry his bride if he didn’t like her.
D. The groom and the bride didn’t see each other until the wedding
49. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. In order to avoid evil spirits, the bride had to wear her veil.
B. In wedding customs, blue is the symbol of purity.
C. Single girls are very happy to catch the bride’s flowers.
D. The bride and her bridesmaids dressed similarly.
50. All of the following are mentioned in this passage EXCEPT________.
A. brides’ flowers B. brides’ clothes C. grooms’ clothes D. brides’ veils

Little boys and little girls don’t enjoy reading as much as they once did. Parents and booksellers tend to blame (责备) the growing appeal of online entertainment and games, but whom or what should be really blamed?
Michael Norris, an American publishing expert, said in a report that although the parents’ intentions (意图) are good, they often stop their children from picking up the reading habit. Parents have too much of a role in deciding which books their children are going to read. It is turning children off. They should let them choose.
My first tip is that reading should never be described with“work words” which make it seem like a chore (琐事). Too many families have fallen into the trap of regarding reading as a “good” activity and online game playing as “bad”. Instead, it is important to let reading be connected with pleasure and achievement, just as game playing is.
The second tip is to make sure children talk directly to a librarian or a bookseller. while parents stand well back. Parents should allow children to choose their own reading material. Even if a mother or father is just standing with the children, when the bookseller asks them what they like to read, we have found that the children will give an answer they think their parent wants to hear.
The third tip for parents is that they do not attempt to limit books to one age range. Parents should not worry whether a title looks too young or too old for a child. If a book has caught their attention, then let them take it and make up their own mind. Children often enjoy reading books that are easy for them to understand. My father once compelled me to read The Hunt for Red October by Tom Clancy when I was 16 and I have never read another Clancy since.
Reading is a personal experience. It should all be about patience and believe that books are sold to one person, one at a time.
51. According to Michael Norris who makes the children lose interest in reading?
A. Game designers. B. Entertainers. C. Booksellers. D. Parents.
52. In his first tip, the author suggests parents help their children ________.
A. learn to do chores at home B. choose good books to read
C. avoid thinking of reading as an unpleasant task D. spend less time in playing games
53. Why should children directly talk to booksellers?
A. They can choose what they really want. B. They can get a good price.
C. They can learn to spend money wisely. D. They can give advice to booksellers.
54. What does the underlined word “compelled” in Paragraph 5 mean?
A. Allowed. B. Advised C. Forced D. Encouraged
55. The author’s own example in Paragraph 5 shows that ________.
A. his father’s way of education is not suitable
B. parents shouldn’t limit books according to age range
C. parents always choose wrong books for their children
D. Tom Clancy’s works are not suitable for teenagers
【答案】51. D 52. C 53. A 54. C 55. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇应用文。父母的干预阻止了孩子养成阅读习惯,针对这一问题,作者给出了三条自己的建议。
【51题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Michael Norris, an American publishing expert, said in a report that although the parents’ intentions (意图) are good, they often stop their children from picking up the reading habit. Parents have too much of a role in deciding which books their children are going to read. It is turning children off. They should let them choose.(美国出版专家迈克尔·诺里斯在一份报告中说,尽管父母的初衷是好的,但他们往往会阻止孩子养成阅读的习惯。在决定孩子读哪些书的问题上,父母扮演了太多的角色。这会让孩子们失去兴趣。他们应该让他们自己选择。)”可知,迈克尔·诺里斯认为,父母让孩子们对阅读失去了兴趣。故选D项。
【52题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“My first tip is that reading should never be described with “work words” which make it seem like a chore (琐事). Too many families have fallen into the trap of regarding reading as a “good” activity and online game playing as “bad”. Instead, it is important to let reading be connected with pleasure and achievement, just as game playing is.(我的第一个建议是,永远不要用“工作词汇”来描述阅读,这会让它看起来像一件苦差事。太多的家庭陷入了这样的误区:把阅读看成是“好”活动,把玩网络游戏看成是“坏”活动。相反,重要的是让阅读与快乐和成就联系在一起,就像玩游戏一样。)”可知,在他的第一条建议中,作者建议父母让孩子知道阅读不是一项不愉快的任务,而是像玩游戏一样快乐的事。故选C项。
【53题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“The second tip is to make sure children talk directly to a librarian or a bookseller. while parents stand well back. Parents should allow children to choose their own reading material. Even if a mother or father is just standing with the children, when the bookseller asks them what they like to read, we have found that the children will give an answer they think their parent wants to hear.(第二个建议是确保孩子们直接与图书管理员或书商交谈。而父母则远远站在后面。家长应该让孩子自己选择阅读材料。即使父母只是站在孩子身边,当书商问他们喜欢读什么时,我们发现孩子们会给出他们认为父母想听到的答案。)”可知,孩子通过直接和书商对话,他们可以选择他们真正想要的。他们的选择不再受父母的影响。故选A项。
【54题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线单词后面的“I have never read another Clancy since”可知,从此以后作者再也没有读过克兰西的书,一定是因为16岁时,父亲让他读的克兰西的《寻找红色十月》对作者产生了不好的影响,作者肯定不喜欢读《寻找红色十月》,是父亲强迫作者读的,所以划线单词compelled的意义为“强迫”,与C项中的forced意义一致。故选C项。
【55题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段中作者自己的例子“My father once compelled me to read The Hunt for Red October by Tom Clancy when I was 16 and I have never read another Clancy since.(我16岁时,父亲曾强迫我读汤姆·克兰西的《寻找红色十月》,从那以后我再也没有读过克兰西的作品。)”可知,从此以后作者再也没有读过克兰西的书,一定是因为16岁时,父亲让他读的克兰西的《寻找红色十月》对作者产生了不好的影响,所以,父母不应该根据孩子的年龄来限制他们读的书。故选B项。

I tried to give up take-outs (外卖) earlier this year You may wonder why I made that decision. I spent a good amount of money on take-outs every month. I almost spent 30 percent of my money in dining every month. I hoped giving up my costly habit would save me some money.
My boyfriend had tried many times to get me to plan out my meal ahead of time, but I never listened to him. When I told him my decision, he took it with a grain of salt. But later when I made it, he finally believed I could do it.
In order to prepare meals myself, I knew I would need a few recipes (菜谱) to prepare on Sundays and eat throughout the week. I depended on Pinterest for recipes. I learned to make some dishes, which are delicious to make.
Because I gave up take-outs, I not only saved some money, but also spent less time in line for lunch. It freed up a great amount of work time. But I noticed I hardly left the office on days when I brought my lunch. Actually, I wish I had still taken my lunch breaks just to get a breath of fresh air.
Research shows that spending money on experiences brings the most long-lasting happiness. By saving money on food, I was better equipped to afford my vacation and was able to create memories I will treasure. I spent a one-week vacation in May this year and it was great.
After preparing food myself, I had better control of my money and was able to deal with unexpected cost. And I learned a few new recipes in the process!

One of the most stressful days of Susan McFrederick’s life was watching her son get wheeled away for surgery (手术) hours after he was born in 2011.
But after the operation, Susan burst into tears for a different reason: across the cut on their newborn son’s back was a sweet winter scene, hand-drawn on his bandages.
“There were rolling hills of snow, a pine tree and a snowman with a hat and broom,” she recalled. It was extremely touching and comforting to know that somebody had taken the time to do that for my family. It was a moment I’ll never forget.”
Susan soon learned the artist was her son’s surgeon, Robert Parry, who discovered another way to use his hands in the mid-1980s during his internship (实习期) at a children’s medical center, where he saw one of his colleagues cut out heart and shark shapes to decorate children’s bandages.
“My first reaction was, ‘What is he doing? Hey, that’s kind of neat,’” Parry recalled. “I especially liked the reactions of the parents and the patients when they saw his artwork. The smiles took everyone’s attention from the surgery. Then I decided to follow suit.”
Parry quickly graduated from his early hearts and sharks, and started to surprise families with drawings that captured young patients’ personalities. From Snoopy to Spider-Man and bears to butterflies, there isn’t much he hasn’t drawn. Most kids want super heroes sports team logos or princesses, while babies often receive scenes with flowers, trees and sea creatures. During the last 30 years, Parry estimates he has left examples of his handiwork over the stitches (伤缝线) of more than 10,000 children.
“During a time of stress for families, it’s nice to be able to help them smile and laugh,” Parry said. “This is something positive that I can do for them, which is what I like most about it.”
For Parry, the reward is knowing he hopefully made a difference in a child’s life and except for his drawings on bandages, “they can go on and live their lives and never know I was in it,” he said.
He’s not ready to retire, but he’s found a new hobby to keep his hands skillful in the years to come.
“I’ve taken up knitting (编织), Parry said. “Hats, sweaters, gloves — I enjoy it all. But mostly, I enjoy giving everything away.”
41. Susan burst into tears after her baby’s operation because she was ________.
A. stressed B. unsatisfied C. moved D. heartbroken
42. How did Parry get the idea of decorating children’s bandages?
A. He was encouraged by his patients.
B. He was required to learn the skill during his internship.
C. He was inspired by his colleague.
D. He was encouraged by Susan to show his genius for art.
43. Parry’s artworks during the last 30 years show that he ________.
A. took into consideration the tastes of individual patients
B. knew more about his patients than their parents
C. devoted himself more to art than to medicine
D. created a large number of works beyond his expectations
44. What does Parry expect to achieve with his artworks?
A. To get a reward from the artistic circle.
B. To lift the spirits of his patients and their parents.
C. To make a difference in his dull medical career.
D. To win the admiration of his colleagues.
45. What can we learn about Parry from the last two paragraphs of the passage?
A. He is eager to show others his new skills.
B. He is more interested in knitting than drawing.
C. He is looking forward to life after retirement.
D. He enjoys trying new ways to help others.
C
Most of us don’t know the reasons anymore but people today follow them because they are good fun.
Today the bride (新娘) carries flowers but long ago she carried strong-smelling grass. This was to frighten away the evil spirits and to cover the smell of people who do not wash often. People also used to believe that the bride brought good luck, so they would try to get something from her. Today, the bride will offer the guests some good luck by throwing the flowers to them after the wedding. It is said that if you catch the flowers, you will be the next one to get married. Of course, many of the single girls at a wedding try to catch the flowers.
In early times, the bridesmaids (伴娘) and the bride all wore similar dresses. This was to confuse the evil spirits. Now bridesmaids still wear similar dresses but the bride wears a different dress that is often white. Many brides wear veils (面纱) over their faces. This comes from a time when the young couple was not allowed to see each other before the wedding. The families were afraid that the bridegroom might not like the bride. So he was only allowed to lift her veil just before the wedding. By this time it was too late to refuse to marry her.
Brides often wear “something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue”. In earlier times, if the bride didn’t do this, she felt she would be in danger from the evil spirits. Wearing “something old” represents the journey between being single and being married. “Something new” represents the change from being a child to being an adult. “Something borrowed” means if you borrow something from a happily married couple, it will bring you good luck. And “something blue” comes from a time when the edge of the bride’s dress was blue which represented purity.
46. The passage mainly tells us ________.
A. today’s wedding customs B. the history of wedding customs
C. why brides wear veils D. what brides wear at weddings
47. Why did the bride carry strong-smelling grass in the past?
A. To keep the evil spirits and unpleasant smell of some people away.
B. To cover the unpleasant smell of her and keep the evil spirits away.
C. To bring good luck to the bridesmaids.
D. To throw it exactly to the bridesmaids.
48. What do we know about the wedding customs in the past from the third paragraph?
A. The bridesmaids wore completely different dresses from the brides.
B. The bridesmaids also needed to wear veils over their faces.
C. The groom could refuse to marry his bride if he didn’t like her.
D. The groom and the bride didn’t see each other until the wedding
49. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. In order to avoid evil spirits, the bride had to wear her veil.
B. In wedding customs, blue is the symbol of purity.
C. Single girls are very happy to catch the bride’s flowers.
D. The bride and her bridesmaids dressed similarly.
50. All of the following are mentioned in this passage EXCEPT________.
A. brides’ flowers B. brides’ clothes C. grooms’ clothes D. brides’ veils
D
Little boys and little girls don’t enjoy reading as much as they once did. Parents and booksellers tend to blame (责备) the growing appeal of online entertainment and games but whom or what should be really blamed?
Michael Norris, an American publishing expert, said in a report that although the parents’ intentions (意图) are good, they often stop their children from picking up the reading habit. Parents have too much of a role in deciding which books their children are going to read. It is turning children off. They should let them choose.
My first tip is that reading should never be described with“work words” which make it seem like a chore (琐事). Too many families have fallen into the trap of regarding reading as a “good” activity and online game playing as “bad”. Instead, it is important to let reading be connected with pleasure and achievement, just as game playing is.
The second tip is to make sure children talk directly to a librarian or a bookseller. while parents stand well back. Parents should allow children to choose their own reading material. Even if a mother or father is just standing with the children, when the bookseller asks them what they like to read, we have found that the children will give an answer they think their parent wants to hear.
The third tip for parents is that they do not attempt to limit books to one age range. Parents should not worry whether a title looks too young or too old for a child. If a book has caught their attention, then let them take it and make up their own mind. Children often enjoy reading books that are easy for them to understand. My father once compelled me to read The Hunt for Red October by Tom Clancy when I was 16 and I have never read another Clancy since.
Reading is a personal experience. It should all be about patience and believe that books are sold to one person, one at a time.
51. According to Michael Norris, who makes the children lose interest in reading?
A. Game designers. B. Entertainers. C. Booksellers. D. Parents.
52. In his first tip, the author suggests parents help their children ________.
A. learn to do chores at home B. choose good books to read
C. avoid thinking of reading as an unpleasant task D. spend less time in playing games
53. Why should children directly talk to booksellers?
A. They can choose what they really want. B. They can get a good price.
C. They can learn to spend money wisely. D. They can give advice to booksellers.
54. What does the underlined word “compelled” in Paragraph 5 mean?
A. Allowed. B. Advised C. Forced D. Encouraged
55. The author’s own example in Paragraph 5 shows that ________.
A. his father’s way of education is not suitable
B. parents shouldn’t limit books according to age range
C. parents always choose wrong books for their children
D. Tom Clancy’s works are not suitable for teenagers

I tried to give up take-outs (外卖) earlier this year. You may wonder why I made that decision. I spent a good amount of money on take-outs every month. I almost spent 30 percent of my money in dining every month. I hoped giving up my costly habit would save me some money.
My boyfriend had tried many times to get me to plan out my meal ahead of time, but I never listened to him. When I told him my decision, he took it with a grain of salt. But later when I made it, he finally believed I could do it.
In order to prepare meals myself, I knew I would need a few recipes (菜谱) to prepare on Sundays and eat throughout the week. I depended on Pinterest for recipes. I learned to make some dishes, which are delicious to make.
Because I gave up take-outs, I not only saved some money, but also spent less time in line for lunch. It freed up a great amount of work time. But I noticed I hardly left the office on days when I brought my lunch. Actually, I wish I had still taken my lunch breaks just to get a breath of fresh air.
Research shows that spending money on experiences brings the most long-lasting happiness. By saving money on food, I was better equipped to afford my vacation and was able to create memories I will treasure. I spent a one-week vacation in May this year and it was great.
After preparing food myself, I had better control of my money and was able to deal with unexpected cost. And I learned a few new recipes in the process!
