Some people bring out the best in you in a way that you might never have fully realized on your own．My mother was one of those people．

       My father died when I was one-year-old．While I was growing up, we led a very hard life, but my mom gave me a lot of love．Each night, she seated me on her lap and, spoke the words that would change my life, "Kemmons, you are sure to be a great man and you can do anything in life if you work hard enough to get it．"

       At fourteen, I was hit by a car and the doctors said that I would never walk again．Every night my mother spoke to me in her gentle, loving voice, telling me whatever those doctors said, I could walk again if I wanted to．She drove that message so deep into my heart that I finally believed her．A year later, I walked on my own to school!

       When the Great Depression broke out, my mother lost her job．Then I left school to support the two of us．At that moment I decided never to be poor again．

       Over the years, I experienced a lot of business success．But the real turning point happened on a vacation I took with my wife and five kids in 1951．I was dissatisfied with the second-class hotels available for families and was very angry that they charged an extra $2 for each child．That was too expensive for an ordinary American family．I told my wife that I was going to open a motel （汽車(chē)旅館） for families that would never charge extra money for children．Many people did not believe me at that time．

       Not surprisingly, mom was my strongest supporter．As in any business, I experienced a lot of difficulties．But with my mom's words in my heart, I never doubted I would succeed．Fifteen years later, I had the largest hotel system in the world—Holiday Inn．In 1979 my company had 1,759 inns in more than fifty countries with an income of $l billion a year．

       You may not have started out life in the best situations．But if you find a task in life worth working for and believe in yourself, nothing can stop you．

What Kemmon's mother often told him during his childhood was____．

       A．caring      B．moving  C．encouraging         D．interesting

Who played the most important role in making the author walk back to school again?

       A．Doctors．       B．Nurses．  C．His friend．     D．His mom．

What caused Kemmon to start a motel by himself?

       A．His terrible experience in the hotel．    B．His wife's suggestion．

       C．His previous business success．        D．His mom's support．

Which of the following best describes Kemmon's mother?

       A．Modest, helpful and hard-working． 

     B．Loving, supportive and strong-willed．

       C．Careful, beautiful and helpful．      

     D．Strict, sensitive and supportive．

Which of the following led to Kemmon's success?

       A．Self-confidence, hard work, higher education and a poor family．

       B．Mom's encouragement, clear goals, self-confidence and hard work．

       C．Clear goals, mom's encouragement, a poor family and higher education．

       D．Mom's encouragement, a poor family, higher education and opportunities．

第二節(jié) 讀寫(xiě)任務(wù) (共1小題,滿分25分)

    閱讀下面的一封信，然后按照要求用英語(yǔ)寫(xiě)一篇150詞左右的回信。

Dear Abby,

Last month my son was told that he no longer has to attend weekend classes at his school.  Since then he spends his weekends going out with his friends to play sports or watch movies.  When he is at home all he seems to do is surf the Internet or play silly computer games. I really think he is just wasting his time having fun when he should be studying. I sometimes ask him if he has homework or extra study to do, but he always says that he has already completed it all. This change makes me very worried. I feel that this free time is encouraging him to be lazy. He isn’t studying long enough and this will reduce his chances of getting into university. I also think it will cause problems when he begins to work because he will not be able to concentrate well and will think more of having fun than his job. I have considered going to the school principal and asking him to change their decision but my son says if I do so his classmates will laugh at him. I don’t want to embarrass my child but I don’t want him to fall behind either. 

Please help.

Concerned Mum
