My father loves his garden.He planted some seeds in it.But at that time I didn't understand why working in the dirt excited him so much.
Unfortunately,in early May,my father was seriously injured in an accident He had to stay in bed for a while.My mother had several business trips so she couldn't take care of the garden? I didn't want my father to worry,so I said that I would take care of his garden until he recovered.I assumed that the little plants would continue to grow as long as they had water,and luckily it rained fairly often so I didn't think much about the garden.
One Saturday morning,my father said to me, "Christine,the vegetables should be about ready to be picked.Let's have a salad today!" I went out to the garden and was upset to see that many of the lettuce leaves and carrots had been half eaten by bugs.There were hundreds of bugs all over them!
I panicked for a moment,but then I quietly went to the nearest store to buy some vegetables.
When I gave the salad to him,he said, "Oh,Christine,what a beautiful salad!I can't believe the carrots are this big already.You must be taking very good care of my garden."I felt a little bit guilty.
Coming home,my mother saw the bag from the supermarket in the kitchen.I was embarrassed and I admitted, "Dad wanted a salad,but the garden was a disaster.I didn't want to disappoint him so I went to the store." She laughed but promised to help me in the garden and weeks later I was finally able to pick some.
I carefully made a salad and took it to my father.He looked at it with a hint of a smile. "Christine,the carrots are smaller in this salad,but they taste better."
Now,I better understand how putting a lot of effort into caring for something can help you appreciate the results more,however small they maybe.Perhaps this was one of the reasons for my father's love of gardening.

1.For several days Ⅰ(Jane Eyre) saw little of Mr.Rochester.One evening,I was invited to talk to him after dinner.There was a smile on his lips,and his eyes were shining brightly.As I was looking at him,he suddenly turned around and asked me, "Do you think I'm handsome,Miss Eyre?"
The answer somehow slipped from my tongue before I realized it: "No,sir."
"Ah,you are really unusual!You look like a quiet,serious little person,but you can be almost rude."
"Sir,I'm sorry.I shouldn't have given an immediate answer to such a question about appearances;I should have said that beauty doesn't matter,or something like that."
"No,you shouldn't!I see,you criticize my appearance,and then you stick a sly penknife under my ear!You have honesty and feeling.There are not many girls like you.Perhaps you have awful faults to counterbalance(抵消) your few good points."
I thought to myself that he might have too.He seemed to read my mind,and said quickly, "Yes,you're right.I have plenty of faults.I went the wrong way when I was twenty-one,and have never found the right path again.I might have been as good as you,and perhaps wiser.I am not a bad man,take my word for it,but I have done wrong.It wasn't my character,but circumstances that were to blame.Why do I tell you all this?Because you're the sort of person people tell their problems and secrets to,because you're sympathetic and you give them hope."
"Don't be afraid of me,Miss Eyre," he continued." You don't relax or laugh very much,perhaps because of the effect Lowood has had on you.But in time you will be more natural when you're with me,and laugh,and speak freely.You're like a bird in a cage.When you get out of the cage,you'll fly very high.Good night."
(1)Why did Mr.Rochester say "and then you stick a sly penknife under my ear" in paragraph 5?
A.Because Jane had offered some unnecessary explanations.
B.Because Jane had intended to be more critical.
C.Because Jane had regretted having talked to him.
D.Because Jane had intended to kill him with a knife.
(2)From what Mr.Rochester told Miss Eyre,we can conclude that he wanted to
A.tell her all his troubles
B.tell her his life experience
C.change her opinion of him

2.To me,life without music would not be exciting.I realize that this is not true for everybody.Many people get along quite well without going to the concert,and listening to the record.But music plays an important part in everyone's life,whether he realizes it or not.Try to imagine,for example,what films or TV plays would be like without music.Would the feelings,the moving plot,and the greatest interests,be so exciting or dramatic?I'm not sure about it.
Now,we have been speaking of music in its more common meaning----the kind of music we hear in the concert hall.But if we look at some parts of music more closely,we discover them in our everyday life too----in the rhythm of the sea,the melody of a bird in the woods and so on.So music surely has meaning for everyone,in some way or other.And,of course,it has special meaning for those who have spent all their lives working on playing or writing music.
It is well said, "Through music a child enters into a world of beauty,expresses himself from his heart,feels the joy of doing things alone,learns to take care of others,develops his mind and makes his body strong."
(1)What does the writer say more about in the text?
A.Life full of music.
B.The importance of music.
C.Life without music.
D.The development of music.
(2)From the text,we learn that many people
A.go to the concert instead of enjoying music
B.get along quite well without music
C.don't realize the importance of music
D.think music would be less exciting than films
(3)What does the underlined word "melody" mean in the text?
A.flying
B.living
C.looking
D.singing
(4)From the last paragraph,we learn that music
A.is very necessary for our everyday life
B.is very important,especially for children
C.can make our life exciting and dramatic
D.can enter another beautiful world發(fā)布:2025/1/1 18:0:1組卷:6引用:3難度:0.6 -
