I’ve loved my mother’s desk since I was just tall enough to see above the top of it as Mother sat doing letters(學(xué)問). Standing by her chair, looking at the ink bottle, pens, and white paper, I decided that the act of writing must be the most wonderful thing in the world.
Years later, during her final illness, Mother kept different things for my sister and brother. “But the desk”, she said again, “is for Elizabeth.” I never saw her anger, never saw her cry. I knew she loved me; she showed it in action. But as a young girl, I wanted heart-to-heart talks between mother and daughter. They never happened. And a gulf opened between us. I was too emotional. But she lived “on the surface”.
As years passed, I had my own family. I loved my mother and thanked her for our happy family. I wrote to her in careful words and asked her to let me know in any way she chose that she did forgive（原諒）me. I posted the letter and waited for her answer. None came. My hope turned to disappointment, then little interest and, finally, peace-it seemed that nothing happened. I couldn’t be sure that the letter had even got to Mother. I only knew that I had written in, and I could stop trying to make her into someone she was not.
Now the present of her desk told me, as she’d never been able to, that she was pleased that writing was my chosen work. I cleaned the desk carefully and found some papers inside－a photo of my father and a one-page letter, folded and refolded many times. Give me an answer, my letter asks, in any way you chose. Mother, you always chose the act that speaks louder than words.
【小題1】The writer began to love her mother’s desk _______.

A．a(chǎn)fter Mother died.B．before she became a writer.
C．when she was a child.D．when Mother gave it to her.
【小題2】The passage shows that _____.
A．Mother was cold on the surface but kind in her heart to her daughter.
B．Mother was too serious about everything her daughter had done.
C．Mother cared much about her daughter in words.
D．Mother wrote to her daughter in careful words.
【小題3】The word gulf in the paragraph 2 means ______.
A．deep understanding between the old and the young.
B．different ideas between the mother and the daughter.
C．free talks between mother and daughter.
D．part of the sea going far in land.
【小題4】What did mother do with her daughter’s letter asking for forgiveness?
A．She had never received the letter.
B．For years, she often talked about the letter.
C．She didn’t forgive her daughter at all in all her life.
D．She read the letter again and again till she died.
【小題5】What’s the best title of the passage?
A．My Letter to Mother.B．Mother and Children.
C．My Mother’s Desk.D．Talks between Mother and Me.

One day over lunch, I explained to a group of boys that my father was a prince.

“My grandfather, he’s a chief. It’s sort of like the king of the tribe, you know… like the Indians. So that makes my father a prince. He’ll take over when my grandfather dies.”

“What about after that?” one of my friends asked, “I mean, will you go back and be a prince?”

“Well… if I want to, I could. It’s sort of complicated, see, because the tribe is full of warriors. Like Obama…that means ‘Burning Spear.’ The men in our tribe all want to be chief, so my father has to settle these before I can come.”

As the words flew out of my mouth, I felt the boys changed attitudes towards me, more curious and familiar when we bumped into each other in the class, a part of myself even began to believe the story. But another part of me knew that what I was telling them was a lie, something I’d constructed from the information I’d picked up from my mother. However, after a week of staying with my father in the flesh, I had decided that I preferred his more distant image in my mind, an image I could change or ignore when convenient. If my father hadn’t exactly disappointed me, he remained something unknown, something grand and threatening.

My mother had felt my anxiety as the days of his arrival drawing near—I suppose her the same, from her efforts to prepare the apartment we’d rented for him, she would try to assure me that the reunion would go smoothly. She told that she had stayed a correspondence(通信)with him throughout the time we had been separated, she explained, and he knew all about me. Like her, my father had remarried, and I now had five brothers and one sister living in Kenya. He had been in a bad car accident, and this trip was part of his recovery after a long stay in the hospital.

“You two will become great friends,” she decided.

59. Other boys changed attitudes towards me because ______.

A. they were more curious and familiar

B. I told a lie to them which made them respect me

C. my father was a prince and I would be a prince, too

D. I was friendly to them and made friends with them finally

60. It can be inferred from the text that ______.

A. my parents had been divorced

B. father had an accident on the way to meet us

C. my father and I would surely become good friends

D. I would go back to hometown and become a prince

61. The underlined phrase “bumped into” in Paragraph 5 means “______”.

A. came across　　 　　　　　　　 B. crashed into　　　　　　

C. stared at D. talked with

62. Which of the following statements is TRUE?

A. This reunion was specially planned by father.

B. Father was not what I had always thought in my brain.

C. It was a long time since father and mother kept in touch.

D. I was unwilling to see my father because he abandoned us.
