I never saw my father home from work late or ill，nor did I ever see my father take a “night out with the boys”．He had no hobbies but just took care of his family.
For 22 years，since I left home for college，my father called me every Sunday at 9：00 a．m.He was always interested in my life—how my family was doing.The calls even came when he and my mother were in Australia，England or Florida.
Nine years ago，when I bought me first house，my father，67 years old，spent eight hours a day for three days，painting my house.He would not allow me to pay someone to have it done.All he asked was a glass of iced tea，and that I hold a paintbrush for him and talk to him.But I was too busy，for I had a law practice to run，and I could not take the time to hold the paintbrush，or talk to my father.
Five years ago，my 71 year old father spent five hours putting together a swing set (秋千)for my daughter.Again，all he asked was that I get him a glass of iced tea，and talk to him.But again，I had laundry to do，and the house to clean.
The morning on Sunday，January 16，1995，my father telephoned me as usual，but this time he had seemed to have forgotten some things we had discussed the week before.I had to get to church，and I cut the conversation short.
The call came at 4：40 a．m.That day my father was sent to hospital in Florida.I got on a plane immediately，and I vowed (发誓)that when I arrived，I would make up for the lost time，and have a nice long talk with him and really get to know him.
I arrived in Florida at 1: 00 a．m.，but my father had passed away at 9：12 p．m.This time it was he who did not have time to talk，or time to wait for me.
In the years since his death I have learnt much about my father，and even more about every single day.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。作者给我们讲述了她的父亲，她父亲是一个很顾家的人，眼里只有他的家人。作者在短文中讲述了生活中的几件事情，从这些事情中我们可以看到，作者因为太忙，跟父亲没有太多的交流，当作者想要弥补时，父亲却离开了她。

Children who spend more time reading with their parents have a greater chance of becoming better readers than those who don't.With help from their parents，children can learn techniques to improve their reading skills.
“A lot of parents think after their child learns to read，they should stop reading to them，” Donna George said.“They are sadly mistaken.”
George offers her services to parents at the Title I Learning Centers.She said reading aloud to children may be the most valuable thing parents can do.“It is better for children to hear things at a high level than where they are，” George said.“Parents are their child's first teacher.” Parents help their children build listening，phonics，comprehension and vocabulary skills when they read aloud to them.
Before parents can identify reading problems，they should escape the enemy—television and limit the time their children spend watching television.George suggested not allowing kids to have a TV in their bedrooms，setting a schedule of when kids can watch or keeping a list of how many programs children watch.Louise Jones said that while her 14 year old daughter and 10 year old son enjoy reading，the television sometimes becomes a distraction．So she tries to build the situation by suggesting books the entire family will enjoy reading together.
Parents who do not read themselves should not count on their children being enthusiastic about it.If parents would read to their children at least 15 minutes every day，children would not have so many problems in school.It is the parents' job to help build that desire in their children，and of course to know what kind of books to read is also important.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了父母如何使孩子成为更好的阅读者。
8．According to George，reading aloud to children ________．
A．helps them correct mistakes
B．is helpful to their reading
C．is parents' first duty to their children
D．can get children out of television's attraction
B [细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句可知，家长对孩子大声地阅读，会帮助他们建立听力、发音、理解和词汇技能，即家长对孩子大声地阅读对孩子的阅读是有帮助的。]
9．The underlined word “distraction” (in Paragraph 4)means something that can ________．
A．improve children's reading skills
B．help children form the right habit of reading
C．make children interested in reading
D．stop children concentrating on reading
D [词义猜测题。根据第四段第一句可知，电视是影响孩子阅读的敌人，所以当Louise Jones 14岁的女儿和10岁的儿子享受阅读的快乐时，电视有时就会成为使他们分心的东西，故画线词distraction意为“能阻止孩子专心阅读的东西”。]
10．What is important according to the fourth paragraph
A．Reading skills. B．Reading speed.
C．Reading materials. D．Reading environment.
D [推理判断题。第四段主要讲了为了避免电视成为孩子阅读的障碍，不建议在孩子的卧室安装电视，而且列举了Louise Jones两个孩子的例子，可知阅读环境是很重要的。]
11．Which would be the best title for the passage
A．Children Spend More Time Reading with Parents.
B．Parents Are Their Child's First Teacher.
C．How Parents Make Their Child a Better Reader.
D．How to Improve Children's Reading Ability.
C [标题判断题。根据第一段可知，本文主要介绍了经常与父母一起阅读的孩子更容易成为优秀的阅读者。在父母的帮助下，孩子们会提高阅读技巧。文中详细阐述了父母如何使孩子成为更好的阅读者，所以文章最好的标题是选项C。]

(2021·湖北荆州中学高一期中)They were a happy family：four daughters all in the same school in different grades.The youngest，Janice，who was in my class，seemed to be glued (粘)to her mother's skirts.The three older girls took the bus to school every morning，but Janice was always driven to school by her mother.
One Friday，Janice's mother asked for a talk with me.She said in a soft voice，“My husband is going to Europe on business for two weeks，and he insists that I go with him.I have tried to explain over and over that Janice needs me here.But he thinks that she will be fine without me so I have no choice; I have to go.I have told the babysitter to drive her every morning.Will you please give Janice special attention and help her？I want to be sure everything goes well for her.”
I told her that we would make every effort to support Janice.I even volunteered to meet Janice at her car so she would see a familiar face.As a mother myself，I'd like to help.Janice's mother thanked me for our understanding.
On Monday morning，expecting a tearful，anxious child，I planned a special program of fun and games.I waited outside to greet Janice，but just then the bus arrived and not three，but four girls got off.Janice skipped along joyfully，saying “goodbye” to her sisters as she ran with two friends into the classroom.I walked slowly into the classroom and called Janice over to ask how the bus ride went.Impatiently she said，“Oh，I always want to take the bus with the other kids，but Mother needs to be with me.You see there won't be any more babies，so I have to be a baby a little longer.While she is away，I'll just ride the bus every day.I am five，you know.”

第二节 读后续写(满分25分)
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Christmas Day was coming.I was just a kid then，and my big sister told me there was no Santa Claus.I fled to my grandma because she would be straight with me.I knew Grandma always told me the truth.Grandma was home，and I told her everything.She was ready for me，“No Santa Claus？”she shouted.“Ridiculous！Don't believe it.That rumor has been going around for years，and it makes me mad，plain mad.”
“Now，put on your coat，and let's go.”
“Go where，grandma？”I asked.“Where” turned out to be Kerby's General Store，the one store in town that had a little bit of just about everything.As we walked through its doors，Grandma handed me ten dollars.“Take this money，”she said，“and buy something for someone who needs it.I'll wait for you in the car.”Then she turned and walked out of Kerby's.
I was only eight years old.I'd often gone shopping with my mother，and never had I shopped for anything all by myself.The store seemed big and crowded，full of people competing to finish their Christmas shopping.For a few moments I just stood there，confused，holding that ten dollar bill，wondering what to buy and who to buy something for.I suddenly thought of Bobby Decker，who was a kid with bad breath and messy hair.He sat right behind me in Mrs Pollock's grade two class.Bobby Decker didn't have a coat.I knew that because he never went out for recess during the winter.His mother always wrote a note，telling the teacher that he had a cough，but we kids knew that Bobby Decker didn't have a cough，and that he didn't have a coat.I would buy Bobby Decker a coat！I settled on a red one，which looked really warm，and he would like that.
“Is this a Christmas present for someone？” the lady behind the counter asked kindly，as I laid my ten dollars down.“Yes.”
The nice lady smiled at me，put the coat in a bag and wished me a Merry Christmas.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
2．请按如下格式作答。
That evening，Grandma helped me wrap the coat in Christmas paper._______________________________________________________________

[参考范文]
That evening，Grandma helped me wrap the coat in Christmas paper.She wrote “To Bobby，from Santa Claus” on it，after which she drove me over to Bobby Decker's house，explaining I was officially one of Santa's helpers.Grandma parked down the street from Bobby's house，and I took a deep breath，and dashed for his front door.Seeing no other people notice us，I put the Christmas present down，pounded his doorbell and then Grandma and I crept and hid in the car.
Grandma and I waited breathlessly for Bobby Decker's front door to open and finally it opened.Out went Bobby Decker.Seeing the coat in the bag，he looked very astonished and then called his mother to go out.After hearing them say “thanks” to Santa Claus，I felt very proud of what I had done.At that time I decided to be Santa's helper forever.It was that night that I realized the truth that he who has no Christmas in his heart will never find Christmas under a tree.

I never saw my father home from work late or ill，nor did I ever see my father take a “night out with the boys”．He had no hobbies but just took care of his family.
For 22 years，since I left home for college，my father called me every Sunday at 9：00 a．m.He was always interested in my life—how my family was doing.The calls even came when he and my mother were in Australia，England or Florida.
Nine years ago，when I bought me first house，my father，67 years old，spent eight hours a day for three days，painting my house.He would not allow me to pay someone to have it done.All he asked was a glass of iced tea，and that I hold a paintbrush for him and talk to him.But I was too busy，for I had a law practice to run，and I could not take the time to hold the paintbrush，or talk to my father.
Five years ago，my 71 year old father spent five hours putting together a swing set (秋千)for my daughter.Again，all he asked was that I get him a glass of iced tea，and talk to him.But again，I had laundry to do，and the house to clean.
The morning on Sunday，January 16，1995，my father telephoned me as usual，but this time he had seemed to have forgotten some things we had discussed the week before.I had to get to church，and I cut the conversation short.
The call came at 4：40 a．m.That day my father was sent to hospital in Florida.I got on a plane immediately，and I vowed (发誓)that when I arrived，I would make up for the lost time，and have a nice long talk with him and really get to know him.
I arrived in Florida at 1: 00 a．m.，but my father had passed away at 9：12 p．m.This time it was he who did not have time to talk，or time to wait for me.
In the years since his death I have learnt much about my father，and even more about every single day.

Children who spend more time reading with their parents have a greater chance of becoming better readers than those who don't.With help from their parents，children can learn techniques to improve their reading skills.
“A lot of parents think after their child learns to read，they should stop reading to them，” Donna George said.“They are sadly mistaken.”
George offers her services to parents at the Title I Learning Centers.She said reading aloud to children may be the most valuable thing parents can do.“It is better for children to hear things at a high level than where they are，” George said.“Parents are their child's first teacher.” Parents help their children build listening，phonics，comprehension and vocabulary skills when they read aloud to them.
Before parents can identify reading problems，they should escape the enemy—television and limit the time their children spend watching television.George suggested not allowing kids to have a TV in their bedrooms，setting a schedule of when kids can watch or keeping a list of how many programs children watch.Louise Jones said that while her 14 year old daughter and 10 year old son enjoy reading，the television sometimes becomes a distraction．So she tries to build the situation by suggesting books the entire family will enjoy reading together.
Parents who do not read themselves should not count on their children being enthusiastic about it.If parents would read to their children at least 15 minutes every day，children would not have so many problems in school.It is the parents' job to help build that desire in their children，and of course to know what kind of books to read is also important.
8．According to George，reading aloud to children ________．
A．helps them correct mistakes
B．is helpful to their reading
C．is parents' first duty to their children
D．can get children out of television's attraction
9．The underlined word “distraction” (in Paragraph 4)means something that can ________．
A．improve children's reading skills
B．help children form the right habit of reading
C．make children interested in reading
D．stop children concentrating on reading
10．What is important according to the fourth paragraph
A．Reading skills. B．Reading speed.
C．Reading materials. D．Reading environment.
11．Which would be the best title for the passage
A．Children Spend More Time Reading with Parents.
B．Parents Are Their Child's First Teacher.
C．How Parents Make Their Child a Better Reader.
D．How to Improve Children's Reading Ability.

(2021·湖北荆州中学高一期中)They were a happy family：four daughters all in the same school in different grades.The youngest，Janice，who was in my class，seemed to be glued (粘)to her mother's skirts.The three older girls took the bus to school every morning，but Janice was always driven to school by her mother.
One Friday，Janice's mother asked for a talk with me.She said in a soft voice，“My husband is going to Europe on business for two weeks，and he insists that I go with him.I have tried to explain over and over that Janice needs me here.But he thinks that she will be fine without me so I have no choice; I have to go.I have told the babysitter to drive her every morning.Will you please give Janice special attention and help her？I want to be sure everything goes well for her.”
I told her that we would make every effort to support Janice.I even volunteered to meet Janice at her car so she would see a familiar face.As a mother myself，I'd like to help.Janice's mother thanked me for our understanding.
On Monday morning，expecting a tearful，anxious child，I planned a special program of fun and games.I waited outside to greet Janice，but just then the bus arrived and not three，but four girls got off.Janice skipped along joyfully，saying “goodbye” to her sisters as she ran with two friends into the classroom.I walked slowly into the classroom and called Janice over to ask how the bus ride went.Impatiently she said，“Oh，I always want to take the bus with the other kids，but Mother needs to be with me.You see there won't be any more babies，so I have to be a baby a little longer.While she is away，I'll just ride the bus every day.I am five，you know.”
12．Why did Janice's mother want to have a talk with the author
A．To ask her to help Janice with her homework.

Christmas Day was coming.I was just a kid then，and my big sister told me there was no Santa Claus.I fled to my grandma because she would be straight with me.I knew Grandma always told me the truth.Grandma was home，and I told her everything.She was ready for me，“No Santa Claus？”she shouted.“Ridiculous！Don't believe it.That rumor has been going around for years，and it makes me mad，plain mad.”
“Now，put on your coat，and let's go.”
“Go where，grandma？”I asked.“Where” turned out to be Kerby's General Store，the one store in town that had a little bit of just about everything.As we walked through its doors，Grandma handed me ten dollars.“Take this money，”she said，“and buy something for someone who needs it.I'll wait for you in the car.”Then she turned and walked out of Kerby's.
I was only eight years old.I'd often gone shopping with my mother，and never had I shopped for anything all by myself.The store seemed big and crowded，full of people competing to finish their Christmas shopping.For a few moments I just stood there，confused，holding that ten dollar bill，wondering what to buy and who to buy something for.I suddenly thought of Bobby Decker，who was a kid with bad breath and messy hair.He sat right behind me in Mrs Pollock's grade two class.Bobby Decker didn't have a coat.I knew that because he never went out for recess during the winter.His mother always wrote a note，telling the teacher that he had a cough，but we kids knew that Bobby Decker didn't have a cough，and that he didn't have a coat.I would buy Bobby Decker a coat！I settled on a red one，which looked really warm，and he would like that.
“Is this a Christmas present for someone？” the lady behind the counter asked kindly，as I laid my ten dollars down.“Yes.”
The nice lady smiled at me，put the coat in a bag and wished me a Merry Christmas.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
