When I was a foreign teacher in China, every day I taught English to my students and they taught me about China. One day the topic turned to saying “I love you”. I was shocked to learn that not one of my students had said this to their mothers, nor had their mothers said it to them. “Does your mom love you?” “Of course ,”they answered.
“How do you know ?”was my logical question. They responded that their moms cooked and always told them what they were doing wrong to show their caring. I was stunned .So mom’s cooking and criticzing read out as “I love you ”. “Then how do you say ‘I love you ’to her?” They agreed that getting good grades, followed by good jobs would be how they showed their love.
I come from a culture where most people are expressive enough, so I repeated these queries in classes over time. Gradually, I began to get different response. Some of them had exchanged those sentiments with their moms.
One of my favorite stories of change came from a girl. When she came home from university, her mother met her at the door and hugged her. This had never happened before, but her mom said, “Now that you have gone I have more time to myself. I noticed that in some places mothers and children hug each other and I decided it was a good idea and that I would begin hugging you.”
In my family we all say “I love you” a lot .While it is true that we often say the words without having great depth of feelings at that moment, it is almost like a blessing we give each other. Those three little words carry a world of meaning ,even when said as a greeting, but most especially if they are the last words we say to or hear from those we love.The foreign teacher_______.
| A．comes from America | B．is a young woman |
| C．is expressive enough | D．knows much about China |
Chinese people prefer to show love by________.
| A．saying “I love you” | B．cooking |
| C．getting good grades | D．doing something helpful |
In paragraph 4, what’s the real meaning of the mom’s hugging?
| A．She is meeting her daughter at the door. |
| B．She loves her daughter and misses her. |
| C．She is glad that she has more time to herself |
| D．She finds it interesting to hug her daughter. |
What’s the main idea of the passage?
| A．Say “I love you” more to your family. |
| B．Say “I love you ”a lot to Chinese people. |
| C．Say “I love you ”as a greeting to others. |
| D．Say “I love you ”without great depth of feelings. |
When my son, Mark, was in the third grade, he saved all his pocket money for over three months to buy holiday presents. The third Saturday in December Mark said he had made his list and had twenty dollars in his pocket.
I drove him to a nearby supermarket. Mark picked up a hand basket and went in while I waited and watched in the car. It took Mark over 45 minutes to choose his presents. Finally he came to the checkout counter (交款处) and reached into his pocket for his money. It was not there! There was a hole in his pocket, but no money. Mark stood there holding his basket, tears falling down his face.
Then a surprising thing happened. A woman came up to Mark and took him in her arms. "You would help me a lot if you let me pay for you," said the woman. "It would be the most wonderful gift you could give me. I only ask that one day you will pass it on. When you grow up, I would like you to find someone you can help. When you help others, 1 know you will feel as good about it as I do now."
Mark took the money, dried his tears and ran back to the checkout counter as fast as he could. That year we all enjoyed our gifts almost as much as Mark enjoyed giving them to us.
I would like to say '"thank you" to that very kind woman, and tell her that four years later, Mark went house to house collecting blankets (毯子) and clothes for the homeless people in the fire. And I want to promise her that Mark will never forget to keep passing it on.When did the story probably happen?
| A．Before Christmas Day. | B．After New Year's Day. |
| C．On Christmas Day | D．On New Year's Day. |
What happened to Mark in the supermarket?
| A．His gifts were stolen. | B．He broke his basket. |
| C．He lost his money. | D．He lost his way. |
Why did the writer want to say '’thank you" to the woman?
| A．Because she bought Mark a nice present. |
| B．Because she always paid money for others. |
| C．Because she taught Mark to help people in need. |
| D．Because she collected clothes for the homeless. |
What's the best title for this passage?
| A．A big supermarket | B．A kind woman |
| C．A happy family | D．A wonderful gift |
