His mother carried two bags of cotton from the countryside by bus and train to his city. After arriving at the city, there was still a long way to his house without any bus passing by the house. His mother walked to his home breathlessly for 40 minutes without taking a taxi in order to save money.My friend felt bitter as well as funny at his mothers deeds. He pointed to the cashmere and silk quilts and said, “So long as you have money, you can buy anything in the supermarket. There is no need for you to carry so much cotton here in such a long way.”But his mother insisted and said, “The cotton of this year is light and warmth-keeping. Have a try and you will know!”Maybe every parent is the same, caring for their children with stubborn love without caring about whether they know or like it.This early spring, I went to visit my grandmother. We had dry beans stew （炖菜）, eggplant salad bar, sauce radish （酱萝卜条）for our dinner, all of which were dried by my grandmother last autumn and tasted wonderful. I loved the dishes to my hearts content and could not help praising them again and again.After a few days, my grandmother, who seldom visited us, came to my home and unpacked her bag, smilingly taking out bags of dried eggplants, dried beans and dried vegetable. She told me that I left so hastily last time that she forgot to give me some of these foods, so she took this chance to bring me what I liked.I was speechless at that time. Due to my casual complimentary her food, my grandmother, a nearly 70-year-old lady, by taking three buses from the west of the city to the east, came to my home with the food I liked. But she was bus-sick in life and even seldom went strolling in the street.My pretty girlfriend had a failed marriage in the past. After divorce, her parents shed the deepest protection and care to her by helping her attend to the child and offering financial aids. Her parents love made her pull herself together and forgot the man who had hurt her before.Nonetheless, her father, an honest and upright old man, after hearing his ex-son-in-law got promoted in his company, felt terrifically irritated and went to his company to question his boss why a philandering man with corrupt conducts could get promoted. The whole office fell into a mess immediately and many staff just watched on the sidelines. Some people even whispered lightly, It is a new era now and the relationship between men and women is very open. No one would care about that any more!The old man stood silently in the office with his hands shivering and eyes tearing.That night, my girlfriend cried heavily in front of me. I asked her whether it was her fathers stupid deeds that made her feel humiliated. But she said that she felt guilty for her dad and that though the rest of the whole world betrayed her, her old father would still back her up and help her get the justice she deserved, just as when she was young and the neighboring boy grabbed her ball, her father would get it back for her. However, this changed world was no longer the stage for her old father and his deeds became funnily obsolete. No one managed to see the real and ever-lasting love to his daughter behind his seemingly rude behaviors.Now we have grown up so much so that we could support our family and have our own children. But in our parents heart, they are still worried that we do not have sufficient quilts and dried vegetables. They would not feel troubled to bring all these to us regardless of long tough journey. They even would not like us to suffer a bit and try all means to protect us without caring about whether what they do is awkward and stupid or not.Who in the world would love us so deeply and relentlessly without asking for any repay? Only our parents!41. What does the author want to tell us?A. The love from our parents is real and deep though sometimes it doesnt appear so.B. The love from our parents is awkward sometimes, which is rather annoying.C. Children should appreciate parents love because their life is so hard.D. The world is changing so the love of parents should change too.42. The underlined world humiliate in the eleventh paragraph means _. A. guilty B. movedC. happy D. ashamed 43. How many examples of older generations love are mentioned in the passage? A. One B. Two C. Three D. four44. After the authors girlfriends former husband got promoted, her father _.A. congratulated him B. made his daughter marry him againC. had a quarrel with him D. argued with his boss45. From the passage we can learn the authors grandmother is _.A. upright and honest B. loving and troublesome C. thoughtful and careful D. generous and activeBSeptember can be a depressing month. The summer holidays are over, its time to go back to work or school and Christmas is four months away. However, for some people its the perfect time to get away.These days more and more people are taking their holidays late in the year and for good reasons. Holidays in autumn can be cheaper, the resorts are less crowded and the weather isnt as extreme as it is in the summer. So, where are the best places to go? Here are our top tips.Sardinia (in Italy) has an average temperature of 27 in September. It also has “Autunno in Barbagia” (Autumn in Barbagia) a series of festivals that take place in 27 villages in Barbagia, a mountainous region of inland Sardinia. The festivals continue from September to December, so theres always something happening. There are street markets, craft workshops and theres lots of eating and drinking (This is Italy, after all).Dubrovnik Croatia has become very popular in summer but its quieter and more pleasant once the crowds have left. The weather is still warm but less humid. You can take a ferry to the popular beaches on the islands of Sunj and enjoy it with locals.Dahab Egypt, is extremely hot in the summer with temperatures up to 38. However, the autumn is cooler while the sea is still warm. This makes Dahab the perfect place for snorkeling and windsurfing. There are also interesting historical sites to visit such as the Coloured Canyon, with its dramatic rock formations, and St Catherines Monastery, at the foot of Mount Sinai.Kas is a relaxed fishing village on the Lycian coast in southern Turkey. There are plenty of things to do and the temperature has dropped (so you can actually enjoy doing them!) Kas is a good place to stay if you want to walk part of the Lycian way: a long-distance footpath that stretches for 500km from Fethiye to Antalya through the ancient land of Lycia. There are also watersports, of course. The best time to go diving is supposed to be after the first rains of autumn (usually between late September and early October) when the fish become most active.Marrakech Morocco is another good destination. The city itself is a fascinating place to spend a few days. When you have had enough of that, go to Tigmi, a beautiful hill town about 20 kilometers away. Theres a hammam (a Turkish bath) and a large heated pool, which makes it the perfect place to relax.Wherever you go this autumn have fun!46. Here are the good reasons for people to take holidays in autumn except that _. A. Holidays in autumn can be cheaper B. the scenery in autumn is more attractive C. the resorts in autumn are less crowded D. The weather is neither too hot nor too cold47. We can infer from Paragraph 3 that _. A. visitors can take part in a series of festivals in October in Barbagia B. Barbagia in Egypt is surrounded by mountains C. the festivals continue from September to November D. the temperature in Sardinia in September is always below 2748. For someone who enjoys walking, _ is the best choice. A. Kas B. Marrakech C. Dahab D. Dubrovnik49. Which of the following places may not be close to sea? A. Dubrovnik B. Dahab C. Kas D. MarrakechCFamous centenarians (百岁老人) still active in arts, science are in no mood to retire. Those who stand still, die, is one of Oliveiras favorite phrases. He knows from experience what it means, as the Portuguese film director has reached the age of 102 and is still active in his profession. Every year, Oliveira shoots a film and is currently working on his next project. You have to work, work, work in order to forget that death is not far away, he said. When asked about his age, Oliveira said with some humility: Its down to mother nature. It gave to me what it took from others. Being both mentally and physically fit in old age is partly a matter of luck, but it also has something to do with character. Not every white-haired person is wise and social skills, openness and the ability to train the brain are essential for senior citizens. Along with the architect Oscar Niemeyer (103), Nobel laureate Montalcini (101) and director Kurt Maetzig (100), Oliveira is one of those people of whom it would be very wrong to think as members of a listless elderly generation. Another master in his profession is the architect Oscar Niemeyer. The 103-year-old Brazilian is best known for his futuristic-looking buildings in Brasilia, but he also speaks out on behalf of the poor. The role of the architect is to struggle for a better world where we can develop a form of architecture that serves everyone and not just a privileged few, said Niemeyer recently. He spends almost every day working in his office in Copacabana, and even when he falls ill he keeps working on ideas: After a gallbladder (胆囊) operation he composed a samba tune (桑巴舞曲) in the clinic. Another man who could sing a song about age is 107-year-old Heesters. The Dutch-born opera singer spent most of his life performing in Germany, where he still works. Recently Heesters said: I want to be at least 108-years-old. He also plans to keep performing. Should I just sit at home and wait until they come and pick me up? Heesters has not given up trying to add to his tally of awards and is looking for a good stage role. Italian scientist Rita Levi-Montalcini, who is 101-year-old and is still active in medical science, has described the force that keeps driving her on: Progress is created through imperfection. In 1986 she and her lab colleague were awarded the Nobel Prize for Medicine for their work on nerve growth factor. Shes convinced that humans grow on challenges. With so many brilliant examples given, we can see clearly that age is no barrier to some high achievers. 50. From the first two paragraphs, we can see _. A. being active at 102 is achievable for everybody B. Oliveira owes his long life to his mothers help C. being fit in old age is a matter of luck and character D. social skills and wisdom are difficult for the senior51. How many centenarians are mentioned in this passage? A. 4B. 5 C. 6D. 752. By saying Should I just sit at home and wait until they come and pick me up?” in Paragraph 5, Heesters shows us he _. A. wants to sit or lie in comfortB. is waiting for people to pick him up C. is willing to work till he diesD. prefers to give performance at home53. In the passage so many examples were given to show _. A. old age is a big problem if you want to succeed B. as a senior citizen, you have to be open-minded and optimistic C. old people should never think of themselves as old D. old age can not prevent a great person from achieving a lot54. In the writers opinion, the architect Oscar Niemeyer is not _. A. intelligent B. pessimistic C. positive D. diligentDJoe came to New York from the Middle West, dreaming about painting. Delia came to New York from the South, dreaming about music. Joe and Delia met in a studio. Before long they were good friends and got married. They had only a small flat to live in , but they were happy. They loved each other, and they were both interested in art. Everything was fine until one day they found they had spent all their money. Delia decided to give music lessons. One afternoon she said to her husband: “Joe, , Ive found a pupil, a generals daughter. She is a sweet girl. Im to give three lessons a week and get $5 a lesson.” But Joe was not glad. “But how about me?” he said.” Do you think Im going to watch you work while I play with my art? No, I want to earn some money too.” “Joe, , you are silly,” said Delia. “You must keep at your studies. We can live quite happily on $15 a week.” “Well, perhaps I can sell some of my pictures,” said Joe. Every day they parted in the morning and met in the evening. A week passed and Delia brought home fifteen dollars, but she looked a little tired. “Clementina sometimes gets on my nerves. I
