A
About a year ago, a couple with three children moved into the apartment next door to mine. I
never heard any noise from the children, but the parents were always shouting at the kids.
We often met in the hallway when we were coming or going. I always spoke, but the only
answer I got was a hello from the four-year-old girl.
One afternoon when I returned, they were just coming out of their apartment and the little girl
was holding the door open for the others. I remained in the car doing unnecessary things. But when
I looked up I saw the little girl was still holding the door open, waiting for me. I hurried as much as
I could and thanked her.
I was really touched by her act of kindness. That afternoon I was at the K-Mart and I bought a
高中英语 必修第一册 1 / 7
white Teddy bear for her. The next day, there was a knock on the door and it was the little girl and
her father. She was very proud of the bear and thanked me like I had never been thanked before.
Now when we meet in the hall, we all speak in a friendly manner. As time passes, I don’t hear
that yelling as often as before.
Last night we had about four inches of snow. I looked out at my car and wondered how I was
going to keep my doctor’s appointment. I went out to remove the snow. But when I opened my front
door, I found my car was there with all the snow removed. You couldn’t imagine how I felt at that
moment. I thanked that family in my heart.
Isn’t it amazing how a small kind act of a four-year-old girl can change so many things for the
better My guardian angel says that good things come from small acts.
1. Who did the writer think removed the snow on his car
A. That family next door. B. Someone sent by his doctor.

C. The writer put off the appointment with his doctor because of the heavy snow.
D. The little girl’s kind act changed the relationship between the writer and her family.
3. The right time order of these events in the passage may be _______.
①I bought a white Teddy bear for the four-year-old little girl.
②A new family moved into the building next to my door.
③The four-year-old little girl held the door for me.
④The father came with the little girl and thanked me.
⑤We speak to each other now in a friendly manner.

Living and dealing with kids can be a tough job these days, but living and dealing with parents
can be even tougher.
If I have learned anything in my 16 years, it is that communication is very important, both
when you disagree and when you get along. With any relationship, you need to let other person
know how you are feeling. If you are not able to communicate, you drift apart. When you are mad
at your parents, or anyone else, not talking to them doesn’t solve anything.
Communication begins with the concerns(关心) of another. It means that you can’t just come
home from school, go up to your room and take no notice to anyone. Even if you just say “Hi”, and
see how their day was for five minutes, it is better than nothing.
If you looked up the word “communication” in a dictionary, it would say “the exchange of
ideas, the conveyance(表达) of information, correspondence(通信), means of communication: a
letter or a message”. To keep a good relationship, you must keep communication strong. Let people
know how you feel, even if it’s just by writing a note.
When dealing with parents, you always have to make them feel good about how they are doing
高中英语 必修第一册 2 / 7
as a parent. If you are trying to make them see something as you see it, tell them that you’ll listen
to what they have to say, and ask them politely to listen to you. Shouting or walking away only
makes the situation worse.
Here is an example: one night, Sophie went to a street party with her friends. She knew she
had to be home by midnight after the fireworks, but she didn’t feel she could just ask to go home.
That would be rude. After all, they had been nice enough to take her along with them. Needless to
say, she was late getting home. Her parents were mad at first, but when Sophie explained why she
was late, they weren’t as mad and let it munication is the key here. If Sophie’s parents had
not been willing to listen, Sophie would have been in a lot of trouble.
Communication isn’t a one-way matter: it goes both ways. Just remember: if you get into a
situation like Sophie’s, tell the other person how you feel—listening is the key to communication.
4. In the writer’s view, dealing with parents is ________ than with children.
A. more difficult B. much easier
C. less interesting D. more interesting
5. The underlined phrase “ drift apart” in Paragraph 2 means ________.
A. keep up with others B. move along smoothly
C. distance yourself from others D. come closer to each other
6. The example in Paragraph 6 shows that ________.
A. Sophie is very polite to her parents
B. Sophie’s parents are willing to listen to her
C. Sophie did well in explaining her being late
D. communication is the solution to misunderstanding
7. All the following statements are correct except “________”.
A. Communication is a two-way matter
B. It is better to say “Hi” to others than say nothing
C. If you don’t agree with others, you’d better let them know
D. When dealing with parents, you only need to listen to them
C
We moved to Elmont in 1956. I was 4 years old. Elmont was a wonderful place to grow up.
There were lots of kids, great schools and we had a big yard. My father, Nicholas Denaro, believed
that grass was not just to look at, but that children were meant to play on it. We played games and
badminton there. A white fence separated our backyard from a small wood. My friends and I jumped
the fence and entered the woods.
My father had the most amazing hand. He could fix anything. He gave those amazing hands to
his son, my younger brother, Frank, who also became handy around the house. But my father saved
his green fingers for me. He grew flowers, tomatoes, strawberries and figs(无花果) and he shared
his love of gardening with me.
Fourteen years ago, I went to a local nursery and bought a fig tree for Dad for Father’s Day.
My mother, Bridget Denaro, called it the best gift I could have given him. He planted it exactly in
the middle of the front yard.
He loved that tree and enjoyed delicious figs every year, except just after Sandy hit in 2012.
He was so disappointed when cold weather just after the super storm froze all the remaining figs.
In 2015, my father died of aspirating pneumonia(呼吸性肺炎) at 97. We sold our family home
of 61 years last year. We left behind Dad’s tree, full of figs waiting to ripen. We considered taking
高中英语 必修第一册 3 / 7
it with us, but decided that his Father’s Day fig tree belonged to Elmont. The new owner generously
allowed me to take some branches so that I could have a precious reminder of my much-loved father
and the Elmont home.
8. What can we learn about the author from the first paragraph
A. She grew up in a city. B. She liked climbing trees.
C. She had a happy childhood. D. She was naughty and stubborn.
9. What did Father teach the author
A. How to garden well. B. How to play games.
C. How to color fingers. D. How to fix everything.
10. Why did Father fail to enjoy figs in 2012
A. He was ill in hospital. B. The cold hit the fig tree.
C. The tree didn’t bear figs. D. He moved to another city.
11. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text
A. To show her love of figs. B. To share her childhood.
C. To remember her father. D. To introduce her experience.
D
I am a strong believer that if a child is raised with approval, he will learn to love himself and
will be successful in his own way.
Several weeks ago, I was doing homework with my son in the third grade and he kept standing
up from his chair to go over the math lines. I kept asking him to sit down, telling him that he would
concentrate better. He sat but seconds later, as if he didn’t even notice he was doing it, he got up
again. I was getting frustrated, but then it hit me. I started noticing his answers were much quicker
and accurate(准确的) when he stood up. Could he be more intent(专心的) while standing up
This made me start questioning myself and what I had been raised to believe. I was raised to
believe that a quiet, calm child was a sure way to success. This child would have the discipline(纪
律) to study hard, get good grades and become someone important in life.
Now those same people perhaps come to realize that their kids are born with their own sets of
DNA and personality traits(特点) and all you can do is loving and accepting them. As parents,
throughout their growing years and beyond that, we need to be our kids’ best cheer leaders, guiding
them and helping them find their way.
I have stopped asking my son to sit down and concentrate. Obviously, he is concentrating just
in his own way and not mine. We need to learn to accept our kids’ ways of doing things. Some way
may have worked for me but doesn’t mean we need to carry it through generations. There is nothing
sweeter than being individual(个人的) and unique(独一无二的). It makes us free and happy and
that’s just the way I want my kids to live their own life.
12. At the beginning, the author tried to keep his son seated in order to make him ________.
A. pay more attention to his study B. keep silent in the room
C. finish his homework on time D. get right answers
13. Inspired by the case of his son, the author began to doubt ________.
A. the importance of parents
B. the old form of education
C. the relationship between kids and their parents
D. the good grades of some kids
14. According to the passage, which of the following statements is right
高中英语 必修第一册 4 / 7
A. We should help kids correct their wrong ways.
B. Parents should study their kids’ DNA.
C. Kids should be taught to behave themselves.
D. Parents should love and accept their kids.
15. Which of the following would be the best title of the passage
A. Study Hard and You’ll Be Successful.
B. Be Friendly to Your Children.
C. Children’s Success in Their Own Style.
D. Parents’ help with Their Children’s Study.

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。
One of my earliest memories was watching my mom talk on our old phone. I was fascinated
that she could talk to someone who wasn’t actually in the room with her. 1 I was wondering
how she managed to talk with someone she couldn’t see.
2 Later, we had mobile phones that could be carried around the room. Then came
computers and smart phones. These days I can send an e-mail around the world in a second. My
daughter’s smart phone has a hundred apps and a dozen social media accounts. She stores all of her
information in a mysterious place known as “the cloud”, where she can take it out at any time. It
seems that we are more connected in this world than ever before.
3 Few take the time to talk face to face. Instead of looking into the eyes of our loved ones,
we stare at our screens. It seems as if the most connected generations are also the loneliest.
Don’t let technology take our time and ruin our life. Make the time to meet, to pray and to
communicate with each other. Take a walk on the beach with a friend. Have a long conversation
with the phones off and the hearts on. 4
Remember that we are here to love each other, help each other and make this world a better
place. 5 But when it can’t, turn it off.
A. That was a long time ago.
B. Connect offline well as online.
C. Smart phones have both advantages and disadvantages.
D. We should communicate with each other with phones off.
E. When your technology can help to do these things, then use it.
F. However, what bothers me is that we rarely associate with each other nowadays.
G. When she left the room, I slowly walked over to the phone and stared at it for a while.
六、完形填空

When I was a child, my mom liked to make food for dinner every now and then. And I
remember one night 1 when she made dinner after a long, 2 day at work.
On that evening so long ago, my mom placed a plate of eggs, sausage, and extremely burned
toast in front of my dad. I remember waiting to see if anyone 3 ! Yet all my dad did was to 4
his toast, smile at my mom, and ask me how my day was at school. I don’t remember what I 5
him that night, but I do remember 6 him smear(涂上) butter on that toast and eat 7 bite!

burned. He wrapped me in his arms and said, “Son, your mom 13 a hard day at work today
and she’s really 14 . And besides, a little burnt toast never 15 anyone!”
You know, life is full of imperfect things…and imperfect people. I’m not the best housekeeper

and 17 relationship.
And this is my prayer for you today: you’ll learn to take the good, the bad, and the ugly parts
of your life and 18 them at the feet of God, because 19 , he’s the only one who will be
able to give you a relationship where burnt toast isn’t a deal-breaker(煞风景)！

any relationship, be it a husband-wife or parent-child or friendship!
