Ⅲ.阅读理解
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
I lived in Dallas nearly all my life with my parents and older sister.I was raised to respect others and value education.“You can be anything you want to be,”my parents always say.My parents are never without a helpful word of advice or a bit of encouragement when life gets tough.
I always knew that going to college was expected of me.After all,both of my parents are college graduates with many degrees.Even after I decided that I'd rather get married to a man who was so clearly wrong for me than go to college at 16,they never stopped telling me that they loved me and that I could do anything I wanted to do.Thankfully,they talked some sense into me(开导我别干傻事).I graduated from high school and currently attend the University of Oklahoma.I want to make the world a better place.And I know that my parents are the reason for this.
Every time I call home to tell them about a grade I received,they tell me how proud of me they are.I know there are college students out there that have no one to call home to when they get an ‘A’ on a project and I feel lucky to have my parents.
Don't get me wrong.We've had our share of problems.I was the angry teenager and they were the terrible parents that wouldn't let me stay out all night or let me get my tongue pierced (穿透).But we managed to work through those issues.They never stopped loving me or believing in me.
Without their constant love and encouragement,I can't be successful.My parents taught me to always fight for what I believe in.And so I'm working toward something really great and can only hope that I continue to make them proud.
【语篇解读】 作者通过讲述父母一生中对自己永恒不变的爱,表达了自己对父母的感激之情,并以此为动力,继续努力奋斗。
36.We can know from the passage that the author's parents ________.
A.are very strict with children

解析:细节理解题。由第二段“After all,both of my parents are college graduates with many degrees.”可知,作者的父母都是大学毕业并有多个学位,由此可知答案。
答案:D
37.What made the author change her attitude towards life?
A.A man she met when she was 16.
B.Her parents' love and instruction.
C.The advice from her older sister.
D.Her parents' criticism and punishment.
解析:细节理解题。由第二段内容可知,作者宁愿在16岁就嫁给一个根本不适合自己的人也不愿意去上大学,可是父母不但没有因此停止对她付出爱,还尊重她的决定。幸运的是父母的话最终挽回了作者错误的决定,作者上了大学,并立志改变世界。正是父母对作者的爱与教育改变了她的人生观。

A.the author likes to show off her achievements

范文
My dear classmates,
There_is_no_denying_that safety plays an important part in our daily life.Recently our school has carried out a program aimed at making our campus a safe place to stay on.
I consider this as indeed a good practice,which will make us aware that safety should always come first in our daily life,whether when we stay at school or outside it.When we are doing sports,we should attach importance to the safety and avoid being hurt.Furthermore,when we get into trouble with our classmates,we should remain calm and avoid any form of fighting,which may only bring suffering and pain to us mentally and physically.
As_far_as_I'm_concerned,I feel all the students and teachers should work hard and creatively to keep the “safety at school” activity in mind.Besides,we_are_supposed_to observe the law discipline where we are at any moment.
Thanks
