As I was getting my wheelchair off the back, a man watched me from his car and I noticed a wheelchair in his back seat. We spoke for a moment and I asked him about the wheelchair. He answered that it was for his daughter. “Well, do you think she would like to go for a ride on my motorbike with me?” I asked. He seemed shocked that a total stranger would ask him this. He thought about it for a second and said, “OK, as long as I can follow you.” He introduced me to Amy and he sat her on my back seat. Her father followed me for a few miles and she talked non-stop about what she wanted for Christmas. As we came back to the convenience store, she said, “This ride is the best Christmas present I could ever receive. I have been in a wheelchair my whole life and didnt know I could do this.” I told her about some of the other things I do (ski, travel the world by myself, etc.). As her father was taking her off my bike, she turned to him and said, “Oh Daddy, Im going to be OK. Mr. Bryant does all kinds of things, and I will too.” Her father turned away as a tear of joy rolled down his cheek. He hugged me and said, “I was sitting here praying for a gift for Amy that would encourage her. She often felt that her life was dull pared to other children. God answered my prayer just now. Now I pray that God will bless you for your gift to Amy today.” I believed what he said.

Not caring about the money, parents often send their children to the best schools or even abroad to England, the United States or Australia. 36 The Chinese believe that the more expensive an education is, the better it is. So parents will spend an unreasonable amount of money on education. 37 However, what most parents fail to see is that the best early education they can give their children is usually very cheap and they should teach them the most important skills they need to be confident, happy and clever. 38 Teaching a child to cook will improve many of the skills that he will need later in life. _39 It is an enjoyable but difficult experience. A good cook always tries to improve his cooking, so he will learn to work hard and gradually finish his job successfully. His result, a well cooked dinner, will give him much satisfaction and a lot of self - confidence.Some old machines, such as a broken radio or TV set that you give your child to play with will make him curious and arouse his interest. He will spend hours looking at them, trying to fix them; your child might bee an engineer when he grows up. These activities are not only teaching a child to read a book, but rather to think, to use his mind. 40 A. But is it correct? B. And that is more important. C. Cooking demands patience and time. D. They also require their children to take a lot of tests. E. They also want their children to take extra - course activities. F. Even poor couples will buy a puter for their son or daughter. G. Parents can achieve this by teaching practical skills like cooking, sewing and doing other housework.第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1. 5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。We always try to include some kind of Smile Card activity during my monthly 41 with my daughter Rachel.
