BFitzgerald, a verywealthy Englishman,had only one child, a son, whonaturallywas the apple of his eye. His wife died when the child was in his early teens. So Fitzgerald devoted himself to fathering the kid. Unluckily the son died in his late teens.Meanwhile, Fitzgeralds wealthwas increasing all the time. He spent a lot on art works of the masters. Later Fitzgerald himself became seriously ill. Before his death, he had carefully prepared his will as to how his wealth would be settledto sell his entire collection at an auction(拍卖）.Because of the large quantity and high quality of his collection, a huge crowd of possible buyers gathered for the auction. Many of them were museum directors and private collectors eager to bid（出价）. Before the auction, the art works were shown, among which was a painting of Fitzgeralds son by an unknown artist. Because of its poor quality, it received little attention.When it was time for the auction, the auctioneer gaveled（敲槌）the crowd to attention. First the lawyer read from Fitzgeralds will that the first art work to be auctioned was the painting of his son.The poor-quality painting didnt receive any bidders except onethe old servant who had attended tothe son and loved him, and who for emotional reasons offered the only bid.As soon as the servant bought the painting for less than one English pound, the auctioneer stopped the bidding and asked the lawyer to read again from the will.

Youd think hed at least show me respect!”Of course, love and presents are related. Most parents work hard to earn money. They want their children to have more than they did and have better lives. The problem is, most children dont connect the things parents buy with the labor that pays for them. Children have more, but our cultureand television in particularteaches them that more is never enough. Having more does not mean that a child feels loved.From a parents point of view, children are not thankful. But this has to do with their natural growth. Young children see their parents as all-mighty(万能的). If parents fail to provide what they want, it must be a matter of choice. Its normal for children, even school-age ones, not to be able to take another persons point of view. For example, they may dislike their parents for working long hours, and not realize that the parent would also rather have more time at home.In addition to giving presents, we have to find other ways to express love and create memories. Reading or telling stories together, making music and playing games are all ways for families to spend time without spending money. Traditions like reading favorite poems and even snowball fights all serve the purpose（达到目的）. Most importantly, as parents, we have to learn to hold back some energy from our tiring jobs. When were present for our children, we ourselves bee the presents we want to give.11. The underlined word “them”( in Paragraph 2) refers to_.A. the things parents buy B. parents C. children D. better lives12. According to the passage, children_.A. want fewer presents B. want presents rather than love C. are taught to ask for moreD. can live better without their parents.13. We can judge from the passage that there is _.A. a heavy job load for some parentsB. a lack of money in some families C. misunderstanding between parents and children D. love between parents and children14. The last paragraph of the passage means that_.A. our children are good presents to us B. we should spend more time with our children C. we ourselves need some presentsD. we should give more presents to our children15. The best title for the passage is .A. Family Life B. Childrens Education C. Love and Presents D. Children and Parents第二节：任务型阅读（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Hi.
