holidays.The trees in the school yard would be in full leaf again and the old leaves would be lying around like a muddy sea of leaves.“Get that all swept up!”the headmaster would tell us.“I want the whole place cleaned up,at once!”There was enough work there,to last over a week.Especially since the only tools with which we were provided were our hands,our fingers,our nails.“Now see that its done properly,and be quick about it,”the headmaster would say to the elder pupils,“or youll have to answer for it!”So at an order from the elder boys we would all line up like peanuts about to cut and gather in crops.If the work was not going as quickly as the headmaster expected,the big boys,instead of giving us a helping hand,used to find it simpler to beat us with branches pulled from the trees.In order to avoid these blows,we used to bribe(贿赂)the elder boys with the juicy cakes we used to bring for our midday meal.And if we happened to have any money on us,the coins changed hands at once.If we did not do this,or if we were afraid of going home with an empty stomach or an empty purse,the blows were redoubled.They hit us so violently and with such evil enjoyment even a deaf and dumb person would have realized that we were being beaten not so much to make us work harder,hut rather to beat us into a state of obedience(服从)in which we would be only too glad to give up our food and money.Occasionally one of us,worn out by such calculated cruelty,would have the courage to complain to the headmaster.He would of course be very angry,but the punishment he gave the elder boys was always very small nothing compared to what they had clone to us.And the fact is that however much we complained,our situation did not improve in the slightest.Perhaps we should have let our parents know what was going on,but somehow we never dreamed of doing so;I dont know whether it was loyalty or pride that kept us silent,but I can see now that we were foolish to keep quiet about it,for such beating was completely foreign to our nature.1、The statement“my hands and my fingers still remember”(Para.1)means that _.Athe author seldom did such hard work as the cleaning up Bthe authors hands were his only tool for the cleaning Cthe authors hands were severely injured in the cleaning up Dthe author was bullied by the big boys in the cleaning up 2、The headmaster would tell the students to clean up the school yard at the beginning of the term because _.Athe students didnt finish their homework Bthe school yard were covered with mud Che was too lazy Dthere were many fallen leaves on the ground 3、The headmaster asked the elder boys to _.Abeat those who worked slowly Btreat the small boys as peanuts Clake charge of the process of the cleaning Ddo the cleaning all by themselves 4、According to Para.3,if the author had any money on him,he most probably _.Agave it to the big boys so as to please them Bgave it as a bride to the headmaster Cspent it all on his midday meal Dspent it buying midday meals for the big boys 23（8 分）My Dear Stuart,We are overjoyed at your generously long letter.We have been rather worried about you since your reticent Xmas card from Spain.We thought that your indignation at Fascist(Natsi)terrors might have made you join the Spanish Republican army on leaving Oxford.In that case,the world would certainly gain a hero,but we might(O horrible thought!)lose a friend.You can imagine our relief to hear from you again.We shall be here for another four or five months yet,and we shall sail home in September.Not that we have homes to return to!Our houses,spared by the shell-fire,have been looted and gutted of all their valuable contents.Our families have taken refuge in mountains.My wife lost her mother,and I myself have no hope of

romantics.I am reading Taines novel.Besides,I have not neglected my English and Chinese studies.Oh,my baby daughter is bursting fat.She already boasts of six teeth(each tooth meaning a week or so of worries and sleeplessness on her part as well as our own).She is very naughty and self-willed.She will be able to walk a little next month.My wife sends you her best wishes.Write to me at your earliest convenience.Yours ever,Chung-shu Tchiien P.S.My wife wants me to tell you that the baby is really“her fathers daughter”.She loves nothing so much as booksto tear and nibble at,certainly not to read.She throws away her toys to grab at the books we happen to be reading.1、If published,the letter can be found in the column of .Acontinued stories Bcover story Cbook review Danecdotes and life 2、We can infer from the letter that .Athe writers homeland was suffering from a terrible war Bthe writer,as well as Stuart,was fond of Chinese literature Cthe writer and his family had never planned

was to be living at home with her parents.All shes ever wanted to do is to become an elementary school teacher.And in the meantime,shes been working through her teaching certifications for four years after obtaining an education degree from Bowling Green State University in Ohio,US.Hipp has racked up$100,000 in student loan debt and isnt able to earn enough through working as a part-time skating instructor and restaurant server to live anywhere other than home.The Pew Research Center recently reported that 2014 was a milestone in the evolving living arrangements of young adults in the US.For the first time since 1880,adults aged 18 to 34 became more likely to be living with a parent than to be living on their own.Before 2014,the most common living arrangement for young adults was to be living in their own property as part of a couple.UBS Financial Services,a Swiss global financial services company,released a report that even suggests one reason for the growing number of young adults still living at home could be that their family doesnt want them to leave.The report shows that 74 percent of millennials(千禧一代)get some kind of financial support from their parents after college.It finds that boomers and millennials have redefined the ties that bind parents and children.“Millennials see their parents as peers,friends and mentors.Nearly three quarters talked with their parents more than once a week during college.In return,their parents happily provide financial support well into adulthood,helping fund everything for them.”Stuart Hoffman,chi
