参考答案31-35.CBDDA

（B）

Once I thought love meant flowers, gifts and sweet kisses.But I never hear my parents say“ I love you” to each other. Even on some special days sending flowers between them is hardly ever seen.Sometimes I really doubt whether there is love between them. Every day they are very busy trying to make money for my schooling.

One day, my mother was sewing a quilt（缝被子）. I silently sat beside her.

“Mum, is there love between you and Dad?” I asked in a very low voice.

With surprise in her eyes, she stopped her work for a while. Then she said, “Susan, look at this thread（线）. It can hardly be seen, but it’s really there. It makes the quilt strong. If life is a quilt, love should be a thread. Love is inside.”

I couldn’t understand her until the next spring. At that time, my father suddenly got sick seriously. My mother had to stay with him in the hospital for a month.

After they were back, my mother helped my father walk slowly on the country road every day. They were so kind to each other and it seemed they were the happiest couple.

After two months my father still couldn’t walk by himself.

“Dad, how are you feeling now?” I asked him one day.

“Susan, don’t worry about me.” he said. “I just like walking with your mum. I like this kind of life.” Reading his eyes, I knew he loves my mother deeply.

Now I understand that love is just a thread in the quilt of our life. Love is inside, making life strong and warm.

36. Why does the writer doubt the love of her parents?

A．Because they hardly meet each other.

B．Because they hardly speak to each other.

B．After two months from the hospital, Susan’s father could walk by himself.

C．The writer’s parents didn’t love each other.

Katie 82

When I was a teenager, I was more responsible than today’s teenagers. After school, I had to do lots of jobs at home. My parents were really angry when I didn’t do my chores. Today’s teenagers are lazier. They come home from school and then play computer games for the rest of the day.

Sarah 45

Young people nowadays aren’t better or worse than young people in the past. Teenagers today have the same problems that we did. They’re worried about finding their own identity(身份) and their own place in the world. I once read this quotation: “Children nowadays just love the easy life. They’re bad mannered, have no respect for authority or for older people, and they make their teachers mad.” Do you know who said that? It was Socrates（苏格拉底）. He lived about 2,400 years ago.

Patty 52

In the media, they always say that teenagers have easy life. They say they’re lazy and irresponsible. But I work with young people and lots of them are responsible and hard-working. I also meet teenagers who are opposite. Isn’t it the same with adults? Perhaps teenagers have more money now. And they have lots of modern gadgets like MP3 players. But those things don’t always make life easier or make you happier!

Ned 23

Who says teenagers have an easy life? Exams are harder now than in the past. It’s more difficult to get a job so your marks need to be higher. The media make us worry about our appearance nowadays too; so a lot of teenagers aren’t happy. They think they should be taller or thinner, like the people they see on TV. Maybe the problems are different from the past. But that doesn’t make life easier. It’s probably the opposite!

16． Who thinks “Teenagers nowadays have a harder life than teenagers in the past”?

A. Katie B, Sarah C. Patty D. Ned

17. What does the underline word “opposite” mean in Paragraph 3?

A. irresponsible and lazy B. responsible and hard-working

C. lazy and responsible D. hard-working and irresponsible

18. What’s the meaning of “quotation” in Paragraph 2 ?

A. 报价单 B. 谚语 C. 引用语 D. 成语

19. Which of the following is true according to the passage?

A. Katie thinks she was less responsible than today’s teenagers.

B. Sarah thinks teenagers today have the same problems that they did.

C. Patty thinks young people today are lazy and irresponsible..

D. Ned thinks teenagers have an easy life.

20. The best title is ___________.

A. What is life like for teenagers today?

B. How was life for teenagers in the past?

C. What do teenagers today do?

D. Is life easier for teenagers today?
