分）One evening last summer,when I asked my 17-year-old son,Ray,for help with dinner,his response surprised me,“Whats a colander（漏勺）?”he asked.I could only blame myself.Nobodys hands went in the sauce except my own.But that night,as I explained with a touch of panic that a colander is the thing with holes in it,I wondered what else I hadnt prepared Ray for.I felt confident that Id raised a self-reliant boy,as we all try to do.But could he boil water?Sew on a button?Wash his clothes without turning them pink?No,no and no.Suddenly it hit me:Hed be leaving the house in a year to attend college.No way was I going to set a spoiled prince into the world.As parents,while we focus on our childs confidence and character,we perhaps dont always consider that we are also raising someones future roommate,boyfriend,husband,or father.I wanted to know that Id raised a boy who would never ask the woman in his life,“Whats for dinner?”So I came up with a plan:I would offer Ray a private home economics course.I was delighted to find that he didnt say no.For two hours,three days a week,Ray was all mine.One day,as his tomato sauce reduced on the stove,he washed and seasoned a chicken for toasting.Then he rolled out the piecrust（馅饼皮）and filled it with apples,all while listening to my explanation on the importance of preheating an oven.Three of my four grandparents were tailors,so Ray was genetically programmed to quickly master the basics,like mending a split seam or refastening a button.One day we covered Advanced Laundry,in which I taught him never to mix a red sweatshirt with white shirts or put sweaters in the dryer.I knew that he would rather have been shooting hoops in the driveway than learning to mend socks with his mother-he tried to beg off sewing lessons,even though I insisted that one day,someone would find the sight of him fixing his own shirt very attractive-but it couldnt be denied that he was learning,and more than just housekeeping.“I appreciate more what you do as a mom,”he told me one day.Ray now understands the finer points of cooking,and more important,he realizes theres nothing masculine（男子气的）about being helpless.Not only can he make his own dinner,he can make it for his family,too.Thats what I call a man.1、Hearing her sons question,the author felt _.Ashocked Bangry Cdisappointed Dcalm 2、We can learn from the text that Ray _.Amade great progress in cooking Bpreferred sewing to cooking Cwas unwilling to take the course at first Dalways thought it attractive to do housework 3、The underlined part“more than just housekeeping”shows that Ray _.Afell in love with housework Bdid other work in the house Cacknowledges the authors efforts Dbegan to be more independent 4、What would be the best title for the text?AAre Women Programmed for Housework?BShould Boys Be Involved in Housework?CIm Proud Ive Raised a Curious Son DA Present for My Future Daughter-in-law 24（8 分）Frank Lloyd Wright was the champion of organic architecture,a style of building meant to harmonize with nature.But Im not sure harmonizing with chipmunks small American animals similar to squirrels with black lines on their fur was what he had in mind.During my years with the US National Park Service,I spent six months working in a visitor center designed by Wrights firm.Several other employees and I staffed the parks phone and radio system from a room in the basement.I was sitting at my desk when I first heard a sound in the suspended ceiling.Dark shapes moved fast across the light panel(光板)above my head.Moments later,they ran back in the opposite direction,leaving me with an impression of noses and tails,each tail followed by another nose.It was like watching a shadow puppet(皮影)performance,but with real animals.“Baby chipmunks,”a fellow told me.“They live in the ceiling.”After four summers working in the parks,I had grown accustomed to sharing indoor space with wildlife.Chipmunks in the workplace even seemed to be a joy;their behaviors provided a bit of stress relief on difficult days.As summer progressed,the shadows chasing each other across our lights grew bigger.Their movement across the light panels had become more of an athletic running.I had just answered a call one day when I heard a loud sound,and a ceiling panel fell down on my head.I dropped the phone as I fell out of my office chair,looking up just in time to see a brown tail disappear over the gap in the ceiling.I pulled myself off the carpet,laughing with my co-workers,and noticed the phone hanging over the side of the desk.I picked up the phone,preparing to explain the crash,the scream,the dropped phone,and the laughing to the listener who was about to visit the park.“Im sorry,but youre not going to believe what just happened.”I dont think he did.1、What does the author probably do?AHes a visitor.BHes a biologist.CHes an architect.DHes a consultant.2、What were the chipmunks doing when the author found them for the first time?AThey were chasing each other.BThey were making their home.CThey were jumping onto the lights.DThey were climbing up to the ceiling.3、How did the author feel about seeing chipmunks in his office?AScared.BCurious.CPleased.DShocked.4、What was the main cause of the accident when the author was making a phone call?AThe chipmunks were fighting on the panel.BThe panel couldnt bear the chipmunks weight.CSomething hit the ceiling from high above.DThe suspended ceiling was not firm.5、Who was the author talking to over the phone?AOne of his friends.BFrank Lloyd Wright.CA future park visitor.DOne of his colleagues.25（10 分）Squatting down on my disorganized closet floor,I looked eagerly through my albums for the picture of my grandmas Christmas lights.I searched so long and so eagerly that I lost all feeling in the legs.Ignoring the pain,I went on with my search,because finding the picture was worth it.My beloved grandma on my dads side,who passed away almost four years ago,would decorate the Christmas trees like it was her job.Each year she would decorate an ornate,12-foot-tall,shining tree in her living room,and most years she would have an additional pink tree,palm tree,colored-light tree,white-light tree,bedroom tree,etc.The ideas varied year after year,but the theme was always the same:Let There Be Light.For the outside of the house,my grandma hired people to come and string thousands of lights through the trees in her yard.It wasnt easy,and it wasnt cheap,but it was a labor of love.People in the small town came and parked their kid-packed cars on the street,gazing at the thousands upon thousands of shining lights year after year.They brought us magic,which was grandmas legacy.That is the family act I am supposed to follow for the rest of my life.Its what Im dying to recreate and pass on to my own kids.I feel so much pressure because no one is capable of doing itand of doing it correctlybut me.So,its me and only me,each year unfastening countless strings of lights,winding them round a 10-foot,prickly tree,and sending the lights to the highest branches.Though Im only ever just scratching the surface of grandmas magic,I uncover a little more each year.I still havent found that picture of my grandmas Christmas lights,but I know it exists,and I will find it,even if it means losing all feeling in my legs.1、Why did the author suffer from pain?ABecause she was missing her beloved grandma.BBecause she had trouble finding grandmas lights.CBecause she kept an uncomfortable gesture for long.DBecause she broke her legs while searching for something.2、What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about?AGrandmas Christmas trees.BThe atmosphere of Christmas.CThe beauty of Christmas trees.DChristmas memories in childhood.3、Which of the following best describes gr
