My teenage son Karl became withdrawn after his father died. As a single parent, I tried to do my best to talk to him. 【1】 When his report card arrived during his junior year, it said that he had been absent 95 times from classes and had six falling grades for the year. In this way he would never graduate. I sent him to the school adviser, and I even begged him. Nothing worked.

One night I felt so powerless 【2】 and asked God for help.“Please God, I can't do anything more for my son. I'm at the end of my hope. I'm giving the whole thing up to you.”

I was at work when I got a phone call. A man introduced himself as the headmaster. “I want to talk to you about Karl’s absences.” 【3】, I choked up（哽咽）and all my disappointment and sadness over Karl came pouring out into the ears of this stranger. “I love my son, but I just don’t know what to do. I've tried everything to get Karl to go back to school 【4】. It's out of my hands.”

For a moment there was silence on the other end of the line. The headmaster seriously said, “Thank you for your time”, and hung up.

Karl’s next report card showed a marked improvement in his grades. Finally, he was even on the list of the best students at school. In his fourth year, I attended a parent teacher meeting with Karl. I noticed that his teachers were surprised at the way he had turned himself around. On our way home, he said, “Mum, remember that call from the headmaster last year?" I nodded. “That was me. I thought I'd play a joke but when I heard what you said,

【5】. That’s when I knew I had to make you proud.”

A. and nothing has worked.

B. it really hit me how much I was hurting you

C. that I got down on my knees

D. I was really disappointed at you

E. Before he could say another word

F. when she was saying something

G. but the more I tried, the more he dulled away.

【答案】

【1】G

【2】C

【3】E

【4】A

【5】B

【解析】

文章大意：丈夫去世后，兒子性格變得孤僻起來，單親母親想盡一切辦法想幫助兒子，卻沒有任何好轉(zhuǎn)。終于一次兒子想借校長的名義跟媽媽打電話開個玩笑時聽到了母親的心聲，從此振作起來，逐漸成了母親的驕傲…

【1】句意：但是我越努力，他就越消沉。上文提到單親媽媽想盡一切辦法與他交流，來幫助兒子，下文又說兒子有95次曠課，六門功課不及格，由此推斷兒子在學(xué)校里表現(xiàn)并不好，可知媽媽所付出的努力沒有收到任何的效果，故答案為G。

【2】句意：我跪下雙膝。根據(jù)上句“I felt so powerless.”我覺得自己無能為力。因此才有了下句“下跪向上帝求助”，so…that構(gòu)成結(jié)構(gòu)狀語從句，故答案為C。

【3】句意：他還沒來得及說別的話。根據(jù)后面的句子“I choked up（哽咽）and all my disappointment and sadness over Karl came pouring out into the ears of this stranger.”當(dāng)校長向這位母親談到兒子曠課的事情時，難以掩飾對兒子的失望和悲傷之情，還沒等對方說話，就把自己一肚子的苦水都倒了出來，故答案選E。

【4】句意：什么效果也沒有。根據(jù)文章句子"I love my son, but I just don't know what to do. I've tried everything to get Karl to go back to school …It's out of my hands."得知，母親愛兒子，她已經(jīng)竭盡全力在幫助兒子，最后一句“It's out of my hands.”說明母親這時的心理，感覺自己已經(jīng)無能為力了，說明對兒子的幫助沒有起到效果。答案為A。

【5】句意：我對你那么大的傷害深深觸動了我。根據(jù)后面的句子“That’s when I knew I had to make you proud.”可知，兒子意識到自己的行為對母親的傷害有多深，從那時起，必須改過自新，成為母親的驕傲，因此選B。

Ever since Greg was a little boy, he had watched his grandfather carve(雕刻) small wooden figures(木偶). In a short time, his grandfather could change a piece of wood into a wonderful work of art. Greg often wished that he could create wonderful little wooden figures as his grandfather did.

One day, Greg’s grandfather called the boy into his room. “Today is the day that you begin to learn the lost art of carving.” Greg couldn’t believe his ears. He sat beside his grandfather. The smell of the wood filled his nose, and he loved that. Grandfather told him the names of the different tools he used to create the figures.

After the introduction to the tools was over, Greg picked up a piece of wood and started to carve. He worked for hours that day, trying to learn his grandfather’s skill. Although his small wooden figure was far from perfect, both Greg and his grandfather were quite proud of the work Greg had done. “I will put it on my desk,” Greg’s grandfather told him. Greg’s eyes shone with joy. He knew that it would take him many years to become as skillful as his grandfather, but Greg was going to enjoy every minute of it!

【題目】（題文）Do you know all birds protect themselves by always listening and watching out for danger? At the smallest sign of it, they will fly away. Birds that cannot fly are often able to swim fast, or run quickly.

Some birds make themselves look bigger and more dangerous by fluffing (動) their feathers. Another important protection for many birds is their colors. Their feathers often have colors that match the things around their nests (巢). Some birds change colors with the seasons. In the winter they are white to match the snow. In the summer they are brown to match the ground.

People sometimes kill birds without meaning to. When people cut down forests to build houses and factories, they destroy the homes and food of birds. If the birds have nowhere else to go and nothing to eat, they will die out. Pollution may cause some birds to die. Birds that eat fish from polluted water get poison in their bodies. Then they cannot lay healthy eggs. New birds can't be born.

Now people protect birds by passing the laws to control hunting and pollution, by setting up some special parks where all the birds are safe from hunters, and by teaching people to care about birds rather than kill them.

How do birds protect themselves?

By 91.（小題1） and watching.

By fluffing their feathers.

Why do some birds die out?

How do people 94.（小題4） birds?

By passing the laws to control hunting and pollution.

【題目】More and more people have phones today. Phone calls and messages help us easily keep in touch with others. It means that we seldom write letters now, but a TV show----Letters Alive(見字如面), is bringing back this old habit.

Letters Alive got its idea from a UK program with a similar name. Both shows invite famous actors and actresses, but there are no funny jokes or different competitions. Instead, it’s just one person walking up to a microphone and reading a letter.

The letters were written by people from different times in history. For example, in one episode(一集) they read a letter written by famous writer Xiao Hong to her younger brother in 1941. The letter shows that Xiao Hong missed her brother so much and had great hopes for his future.

Since its first episode on Dec 5, 2016, Letters Alive has been widely welcomed. Many audience members said that it has provided a breath of fresh air to today’s TV shows.

Apart from Letters Alive, some other cultural TV shows have also been well received by Chinese audiences. They include Chinese Poetry Conference (中國詩詞大會), a classical Chinese poetry competition, and Readers(朗讀者), a program that invites people to read poems and articles they like or wrote.

“This means that our audiences are not only looking for entertainment like gossip(八卦) and eye-catching games,” reported China Youth Daily. “Cultural values and true feelings are the keys to winning praise.”

回答下面5個問題，每題答案不超過5個詞。

【1】What does the old habit mean in the first paragraph?

_______________________________________________________________________________

【2】Who does the show invite to read letters?
