AWhen I was a stay-at-home mom, there were times I wished I could buy some beautiful flowers, but the money that they would cost was needed in the home. When I walked into town with the family, my youngest daughter, Lily, would always carry a flower stem(花梗). That’s how she got the nickname “Stick Girl”.

One day when we passed the flower lady with Lily, the flower lady smiled at her and said, “Come here. I have something for you.” She handed her a beautiful flower. Lily dropped the stem and held on to that flower until we came back home. We placed it in water and enjoyed the beauty of that flower along with the feelings of warmth and kindness from the flower lady.

My neighbors would run to her to get a bouquet of flowers whenever they wanted to, and I used to give directions(為人指路) using the flower lady. I would say, “Walk for three blocks. You’ll see the flower lady. Turn right at that street.”

My mom visits me each year. On her first summer visit this year, she looked at me and asked, “Where’s the flower lady?”

I had no idea. The flower lady had been an icon(偶像) for me for 16 years, but now she wasn’t there any more.

I went on a search and soon found her in another spot, at the Harbor Loop. I was glad to see her and I had to tell her that she was missed!

I have a garden which I admire very much now. Every time I see those bright colors when I come home after a day of work, I remember the generosity of a dear old lady whom I only know as the flower lady.

56. When the flower lady gave Lily a flower, Lily _____.

A. accepted it happily

B. paid for it and walked home quickly

        C. accepted it and forgot that other people were laughing at her

        D. felt sorry for not being able to pay for it

57. Why did the author give directions using the flower lady?

        A. Because the flower lady used to give her daughter many flowers.

        B. Because she felt grateful for the flower lady’s generosity and warmth.      

C. Because her neighbors usually bought flowers from the flower lady.

D. Because the flower lady ran the flower shop with her and her mother.

58. From the passage, we know that _____.

A. it was the flower lady who taught the author how to grow flowers

        B. the author didn’t know the flower lady’s address or name

        C. the flower lady used to sell flowers in one place all the time

        D. the flower lady might keep on offering the author flowers

59. What’s the best title for the passage?

        A. The Stick Girl    B. Beautiful Flowers    C. The Flower Lady     D. Buying Flowers

  George, when your big brother and your little dog and I walked you up to schools today, you

had no idea how I was feeling.

You were so excited. You had packed and unpacked your pencils and safety scissors in your backpack a dozen times. I am really going to miss those lazy mornings when we waved your brother and sister off to school.

Because you are my youngest, I had learned a few things by the time you came along. I found out that the seemingly endless days of babyhood are gone like lightning. I blinked(眨眼), and your older siblings were setting off for school as eagerly as you did this morning, I was one of the lucky ones; I could choose whether to work or not. By the time it was your turn, the shining prizes of career advancement and a double income had lost their brightness. A splash(濺水) in the pool with you in your bright red boots or "just one more" rereading of your favorite book, Frog and Toad Are Friends, meant more. You didn't go to preschool and I hope that doesn't hold you back. You learned numbers by helping me count the soda cans we returned to the store.

I have to admit that in my mind's eye, an image of myself while you're in school has developed, I see myself updating all the photo albums and starting that novel I always wanted to write. As the summer wound down and more frequent quarrels erupted between you and your siblings, I was looking forward to today. And then this morning, I walked you up the steep hill to your classroom. You found the coat hook with your name above it right away, and you gave me one of your characteristically fierce, too-tight hugs. This time you were ready to let go before I was.

Maybe someday you will deliver a kindergartner to the first day of school. When you turn at the door to wave good-bye, he or she will be too deep in conversation with a new friend to notice. Even as you smile, you'll feel something warm on your cheek.

    And then, you’ll know…

64．What does the author mean by the underlined sentence?

       A．She gave up the job with a big salary and prizes.

       B．She could only recall her good job at home now.

       C．Many good jobs with better pay attracted her but she didn’t take them.

       D．Compared with bringing up the baby, work seemed to fade to her.

65．Which statement is NOT TRUE about George’s family according to the letter?

       A．George’s parents gave birth to three children

       B．The Georges is a double income family.

       C．The children had more arguments during the summer.

       D．They recyled soda cans.

66．The passage tries to show us          .

       A．how excited a child will be on his first day to school

       B．how deeply a mother loves her child

       C．how many efforts a mother has made to raise a child

       D．how a mother plans her future life after her children go to school

I had a friend who visited me from out of town and I wanted to show him the CN Tower. It was one of the tallest structures on the earth. So I thought it would offer a(n)   36  sight.
