For his eleventh birthday, Tom was given a gift that would shape his life. On that day his father took him to the Children’s Activity Centre and said he could choose any course that interested him. There was just one requirement (要求): Tom would have to promise to study it for at least one year.
Tom had had many hobbies, but none kept his interest for more than a week or two. His mum once gave him a bag of stamps to encourage stamp collecting. That hobby lasted a week. Then his father got him some paints hoping that Tom’s artistic side would shine through. Those paints were now under his bed, still unopened. This time Tom’s parents would let him decide.
Tom’s eyes moved down the noticeboard that listed (列出) all the courses on offer. He stopped at “Photography”. He liked the idea of taking beautiful pictures but the notice said that each student needed their own camera. Although Tom’s family weren’t poor, they weren’t rich either, and a camera cost a lot of money. He continued looking.
The next course to catch his eye was “Language Art”. He didn’t even know what that meant. His father explained that it taught people how to make public speeches. Tom, a shy boy, could think of nothing worse. Then he saw “cooking”, which sounded like something he’d like to do. It was inexpensive and convenient. It could be done alone and it was also creative.
Based on Tom’s hobby history, his dad had doubts, but he agreed. Much to his parents’ surprise, Tom kept his promise. He studied cooking at the Centre every Saturday, and practiced at home, making delicious meals for his family. Everyone looked forward to birthdays, when they could eat his cakes. Tom got great satisfaction from the pleasure his food brought to others.
The months turned to years but his hobby never changed again. Now Tom is an adult and runs a successful restaurant. When customers say they enjoy his meal, he still gets the same pleasure he did as a child, and remembers the special gift he received all those years ago.
31．Why didn’t Tom choose to study photography

For his eleventh birthday, Tom was given a gift that would shape his life. On that day his father took him to the Children’s Activity Centre and said he could choose any course that interested him. There was just one requirement (要求): Tom would have to promise to study it for at least one year.
Tom had had many hobbies, but none kept his interest for more than a week or two. His mum once gave him a bag of stamps to encourage stamp collecting. That hobby lasted a week. Then his father got him some paints hoping that Tom’s artistic side would shine through. Those paints were now under his bed, still unopened. This time Tom’s parents would let him decide.
Tom’s eyes moved down the noticeboard that listed (列出) all the courses on offer. He stopped at “Photography”. He liked the idea of taking beautiful pictures but the notice said that each student needed their own camera. Although Tom’s family weren’t poor, they weren’t rich either, and a camera cost a lot of money. He continued looking.
The next course to catch his eye was “Language Art”. He didn’t even know what that meant. His father explained that it taught people how to make public speeches. Tom, a shy boy, could think of nothing worse. Then he saw “cooking”, which sounded like something he’d like to do. It was inexpensive and convenient. It could be done alone and it was also creative.
Based on Tom’s hobby history, his dad had doubts, but he agreed. Much to his parents’ surprise, Tom kept his promise. He studied cooking at the Centre every Saturday, and practiced at home, making delicious meals for his family. Everyone looked forward to birthdays, when they could eat his cakes. Tom got great satisfaction from the pleasure his food brought to others.
The months turned to years but his hobby never changed again. Now Tom is an adult and runs a successful restaurant. When customers say they enjoy his meal, he still gets the same pleasure he did as a child, and remembers the special gift he received all those years ago.
31．Why didn’t Tom choose to study photography
A．He was very shy. B．He wasn’t interested in it.
C．This course was not offered. D．A camera was too expensive.
32．What does the underlined expression “catch his eye” in Paragraph means
A．Surprise him. B．Get his attention.
C．Make him relaxed. D．Help him see clearly.
33．Which of the following is true
A．“Cooking” was expensive and convenient.
B．“Language Art” taught people what speeches were.
C．Tom started to learn “Cooking” at the age of eleven.
D．The paints Tom’s father bought for him was used for a week.
34．Why did the father have doubts about Tom's choice of cooking
A．Tom wasn’t good at cooking. B．He didn’t think Tom would continue.
C．Tom didn’t know what “cooking” meant. D．Cooking wasn’t a good hobby for a boy.
35．What’s the best title for the passage
A．The Birthday Gift B．A Strict Father
C．A Changeable Boy D．The Fun of Cooking
【答案】DBCBA

32．词义猜测题。根据上文“Tom’s eyes moved down the noticeboard that listed (列出) all the courses on offer. ”可知此处他的眼睛又停在“语言艺术”上，catch his eye意为“引起他的注意”。故选 B。
33．细节理解题。根据短文中汤姆最终选择了烹饪，结合“For his eleventh birthday, Tom was given a gift that would shape his life. … The months turned to years but his hobby never changed again. Now Tom is an adult and runs a successful restaurant.”可知汤姆11岁时开始学习“烹饪”。故选C。
34．推理判断题。根据“There was just one requirement: Tom would have to promise to study it for at least one year. Tom had had many hobbies, but none kept his interest for more than a week or two.”可推断父亲怀疑他坚持不下来，B项说法正确，故选B。
35．标题归纳题。通读全文，结合“When customers say they enjoy his meal, he still gets the same pleasure he did as a child, and remembers the special gift he received all those years ago.”可知短文讲述了汤姆选择烹饪课作为11岁的生日礼物，这份礼物改变了他的一生。用“The Birthday Gift”做标题最合适。故选A。

The Ministry of Education made a plan to draw art education into the high school entrance exams.
The plan said: “it’s about the ability to appreciate artistic beauty, which is very important for students’ mental (心理的) health.” indeed interest is the best teacher. It’s important to have interests. We can learn from them and develop them.
My interest is writing. When life makes me feel something, I will write about my feelings and emotions. When I am hurt by something in my life, writing about it helps me comfort myself. When someone does something that is touching to me, I’ll write about it so I can learn from it. When I miss someone I love, I might write about my feelings toward them. Writing is a way of communicating with yourself. It can help you get to know yourself better. You can figure out what you want and need in life. It’s a good way to self-reflect (反省). It helps me feel more calm and mature (成熟).
If you don’t already have some kind of interest, why not try writing about your mood (心境)
