Question

5．I've loved my mother's desk since I was just tall enough to sit above the top of it．Mother sat writing letters．Standing by her chair，looking at the ink bottle，pens，and white paper，I decided that the action of writing must be a 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 angry，and never saw her cry．I knew she loved me； she just did it．But as a young girl，I wanted to have heart-to-heart talks between mother and daughter．They never happened．And a gulf opened between us．I was"too emotional（易感動(dòng)的）"．But she lived"on the surface （表面）"．
  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．
  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 it，and I could stop trying to make her into someone she was not．
  But 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．It was my letter．
"In any way you chose，Mother，you always chose the act that speaks louder than words．"

Answer 1

分析 【文章大意】這篇文章主要講的是我和媽媽之間"行勝于言"的故事．我很喜歡媽媽的書桌，受媽媽的影響，我也覺得寫作是世界上一件最美好的事情．若干年之后，在媽媽患病期間，她給每個(gè)人都留了不同的東西，把書桌留給了我．于是，我想跟媽媽來一場女兒和媽媽之間的促膝談心，但是一直也沒談成．等有我有了自己的家庭后，我給媽媽寫了一封信，請求她不論以什么方式，也要讓我知道她原諒了我，可是這也是石沉大海，沒得到任何回復(fù)．后來，我在書桌上發(fā)現(xiàn)了反復(fù)折疊很多次的一封信，那是我的．信上寫道"媽媽，你可以選擇任何方法，但是你總是選擇行勝于言．"

解答 54．答案為C．細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)文中"I've loved my mother's desk since I was just tall enough to sit above the top of it"，我們可以得知，從"我"長得足夠高能夠坐在桌子的最上面時(shí)，"我"就喜歡媽媽的書桌，所以說明當(dāng)我還是個(gè)孩子的時(shí)候，我就喜歡那個(gè)書桌．答案為C．
55．答案為B．詞義理解題．根據(jù)"They never happened．And a  gulf opened between us．I was‘too emotional'，But she lived‘on the surface'"，我們可以得知gulf的意思體現(xiàn)在后面，我變得更多情善感，而媽媽活在表面，所以gulf應(yīng)該是指的是我和媽媽之間形成的不同想法，故答案為B．
56．答案為D．細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)文中"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．It was my letter"，我們知道作者可以看出這封信反復(fù)打開好多次，所以這說明媽媽看了很多次，已經(jīng)原諒了作者．所以答案為D．
57．答案為A．文章擬題．根據(jù)全文，我們可以看出，媽媽的書桌一直是敘述的中心，"我"和媽媽之間的情感起伏也是跟這桌子有關(guān)，這張桌子也寄托媽媽對(duì)"我"的期望，"我"最后也在這張桌子上發(fā)現(xiàn)了"我"寫給媽媽的信，所以文章的中心還是這張書桌．故答案為A．
