Once I came out of the kitchen, complaining, “Mom, I cant peel potatoes. I have only one hand.”Mom never looked up from sewing. “You get yourself into that kitchen and peel

26、those potatoes,” she told me. “And dont ever use that as an excuse for anything again!”In the second grade, our teacher lined up my class on the playground and had each of us race across the monkey bars, swinging from one high steel rod to the next. When it was my turn, I shook my head. Some kids be

27、hind me laughed, and I went home crying.That night I told Mom about it. She hugged me, and I saw her “well see about that” look. The next afternoon, she took me back to school. At the deserted playground, Mom looked carefully at the bars.“Now, pull up with your right arm,” she advised. She stood by

28、as I struggled to lift myself with my right hand until I could hook the bar with my other elbow. Day after day we practiced, and she praised me for every rung I reached. Ill never forget the next time, crossing the rungs, I looked down at the kids who were standing with their mouths open.One night,

29、after a dance at my new junior high, I lay in bed sobbing. I could hear Mom come into my room. “Mom,” I said, weeping, “none of the boys would dance with me.”For a long time, I didnt hear anything. Then she said, “Oh, honey, someday youll be beating those boys off with a bat.” Her voice was faint an

30、d cracking. I peeked out from my covers to see tears running down her cheeks. Then I knew how much she suffered on my behalf. She had never let me see her tears.40.

34、ess of the childs growth CMaggie was very glad that James was not a frequent visitor to the house. So far as the children were concerned, they had a mystery about him that stirred their imagination. He stirred Maggies anger, however, so that she often said to her husband, “Its a mercy that brother o

35、f yours doesnt come oftener.” In fact James came once a year, unexpectedly, around eight oclock in the evening, and he stayed for six hours of close discussion with his brother. His arrival was a signal to the children that their bedtime would be delayed. Not that he ever spoke to them or played wit

36、h them. He took no notice of them, as if he was unable to see children, at least until the time came for him to go. Instead, after his first greeting and a careless kiss, James took no notice of Maggie either, except to add, “Youll be getting on with the supper, Maggie.” Such was his regard for her.

37、 Maggie paid him back in her own way. She kept the children up, the four of them, to keep her company, she said, but of course they sang and made a noise and broke the endless sound of Jamess voice. Very late, they dropped off to sleep in their chairs. Then, when James was about to go, Maggie woke t

38、hem up and so more or less forced him to part with four shillings before he left. That gave her some satisfaction, for James, though rich, was mean. He always went home by the last train, just after two oclock. Maggies children secretly stared at their uncle. They could not forget that he had, in th

39、eir mothers words, “lost two wives and taken a third , ” They wondered about those two unfortunate lost ladies. They asked each other what their fate had been, and if neither could ever be found again. James never brought his third wife with him nor ever mentioned her. The children decided that he m

40、ust be so frightened of losing her that he never allowed her outside the door. 44. The underlined word “mercy” in the text most probably means _. A. loss B. wonder C. lucky thing D. terrible thing 45. Maggie never prepared anything special for James because _. A. he was a man difficult to please B.

41、she never knew when he was coming C. she was too busy looking after her children D. he never stayed long enough for a meal 46. What do we know about James behavior? A.

42、ily, especially the kids. D. He was rude to his sister-in-law. 47. Maggie felt pleased when _. A. she paid James the money that she owed him B. James gave some money to the children C. she had to wake James up to catch his train D. James thanked her for the nice supper DHow should one invest a sum o

43、f money in these days of inflation (通货膨胀)? Left in a bank it will hardly keep its value, however high the interest rate. Only a brave man, or a very rich one, dares to buy and sell on the Stock Market. Today it seems that one of the best ways to protect your savings and even increase your wealth is

44、to buy beautiful objects from the past. Here I am going to offer some advice on collecting antique clocks, which I personally consider are among the most interesting of antiques. I sometimes wonder what a being from another planet might report back about our way of life. The planet Earth is ruled by

45、 a mysterious creature that sits or stands in a room and makes a strange ticking sound. It has a face with twelve black marks and two hands.
