(2013·高考湖北卷，B)Mothers and daughters go through so much－yet when was the last time a mother and daughter sat down to write a book together about it all? Perri Klass and her mother，Sheila Solomon Klass，both gifted professional writers，prove to be ideal co­writers as they examine their decades of motherhood，daughterhood，and the wonderful ways their lives have overlapped (重疊)．
Perri notes with amazement how closely her own life has mirrored her mother’s：both have full­time careers；both have published books，articles，and stories；each has three children；they both love to read.They also love to travel－in fact，they often take trips together.But in truth，the harder they look at their lives，the more they acknowledge their big differences in circumstance and basic nature.
A child of the Depression (大蕭條)，Sheila was raised in Brooklyn by parents who considered education a luxury for girls.Starting with her college education，she has fought for everything she’s ever accomplished.Perri，on the other hand，grew up privileged in the New Jersey suburbs of the 1960s and 1970s.For Sheila，wasting time or money is a crime，and luxury is unthinkable while Perri enjoys the occasional small luxury，but has not been successful at trying to persuade her mother into enjoying even the tiniest thing she likes.
Each writing in her own unmistakable voice，Perri and Sheila take turns exploring the joys and pains，the love and bitterness，the minor troubles and lasting respect that have always bonded them together.Sheila describes the adventure of giving birth to Perri in a tiny town in Trinidad where her husband was doing research fieldwork.Perri admits that she can’t sort out all the mess in the households，even though she knows it drives her mother crazy.Together they compare thoughts on bringing up children and working，admit long­hidden sorrows，and enjoy precious memories.
Looking deep into the lives they have lived separately and together，Perri and Sheila tell their mother­daughter story with honesty，humor，enthusiasm，and admiration for each other.A written account in two voices，Every Mother Is a Daughter is a duet (二重奏) that produces a deep，strong sound with the experiences that all mothers and daughters will recognize.
小題1:Why does Perri think that her own life has mirrored her mother’s?
A．They both have gone through difficult times.
B．They have strong emotional ties with each other.
C．They have the same joys and pains，and love and bitterness.
D．They both have experiences as daughter，mother and writer.
小題2:The word “l(fā)uxury” in Paragraph 3 means________.
A．something rare but not pleasant
B．something that cannot be imagined
C．something expensive but not necessary
D．something that can only be enjoyed by boys
小題3:What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?
A．The content of the book.
B．The purpose of the book.
C．The influence of the book.
D．The writing style of the book.
小題4:How are women’s lives explored in this book?
A．In a musical form.
B．Through field research.
C．With unique writing skills.
D．From different points of view.

Immediately I got up and dressed, I stuck my violin under my jacket and went out into the streets to try my    . I wandered about for an hour, looking for a likely     , feeling as though I were about to commit a crime. Then I      at last under a bridge near the station and decided to have a try.
I felt tense and     . It was the first time, after all. I drew the violin from under the jacket like a gun. It was here, in Southampton, with trains rattling overhead, that I was about to       myself. One moment I was part of the hurrying crowds, the next I stood apart, my back to the wall, my hat on the       before me, the violin under my chin.
The first notes I played were loud and raw, like a declaration of protest, then they settled down and began to run more _   and to stay more or less in tune. To my     ,I was neither arrested nor told to shut up. Indeed, nobody took any     at all. Then an old man, without stopping at all, dropped a penny into my       as though getting rid of some guilty evidence.
I worked the streets of Southampton for several days, gradually obtaining the truth of the       by trial and error. It was not a good thing, for instance, to let the hat fill up with money---the sight could      a kind-hearted man; nor was it wise to      it completely, which could also confuse him, giving him no hint as to where to      his money. Placing a couple of pennies in the hat to start the thing going soon became a       practice and I made sure, between tunes, to take off most of the earnings, but always leaving two      behind.
Old      were most generous, and so were women with children, shop girls and barmaids.  As for men, heavy drinkers were always willing listeners and so were big guys with muscles. But      a man with an expensive hat, briefcase or dog: respectable types were the least      of all.  Except for retired army officers, who would shout "Why aren't you     , young man?" and then would over-tip to cover up their confusion.

On a sunny day last August, Tim heard some shouting. Looking out to the sea carefully, he saw a couple of kids in a rowboat were being pulled out to sea.
Two 12­year­old boys, Christian and Jack, rowed out a boat to search for a football.Once they'd rowed beyond the calm waters, a beach umbrella tied to the boat caught the wind and pulled the boat into open water.The pair panicked and tried to row back to shore.But they were no match for it and the boat was out of control.
Tim knew it would soon be swallowed by the waves.
“Everything went quiet in my head，” Tim recalls(回憶)．“I was trying to figure out how to swim to the boys in a straight line.”
Tim took off his clothes and jumped into the water.Every 500 yards or so, he raised his head to judge his progress.“At one point, I considered turning back，” he says.“I wondered if I was putting my life at risk.” After 30 minutes of struggling, he was close enough to yell to the boys, “Take down the umbrella！”
Christian made much effort to take down the umbrella.Then Tim was able to catch up and climb aboard the boat.He took over rowing, but the waves were almost too strong for him.
“Let's aim for the pier(碼頭)，” Jack said.Tim turned the boat toward it.Soon afterward, waves crashed over the boat, and it began to sink.“Can you guys swim？” he cried.“A little bit，” the boys said.
Once they were in the water, Tim decided it would be safer and faster for him to pull the boys toward the pier.Christian and Jack were wearing life jackets and floated on their backs.Tim swam toward land as water washed over the boys' faces.
