Mother sat writing letters. Standing by her chair, looking at the ink bottle, pens, and white paper, I decided that the act of writing must be a most wonderful thing in the world. Years later, during her final illness, Mother kept different things for my sister and brother. “But the desk,” she said again, “is for Elizabeth.” I never saw her angry, never saw her cry. I knew she loved me; she showed in action. But as a young girl, I wanted to have heart-to-heart talks between mother and daughter. They never happened. And a gulf opened between us. I was “too emotional”. But she lived “on the surface”. As years passed, I had my own family. I loved my mother and thanked her for our happy family. I wrote to her in careful words and asked her to let me know in any way she chose that she did forgive me. My hope turned to disappointment, then little interest and, finally, peace – it seemed that nothing happened. I couldn’t be sure that the letter had even got to Mother. I only knew that I had written it, and I could stop trying to make her into someone she was not. But the present of her desk told me, as she’d never been able to, that she was pleased that writing was my chosen work. I cleaned the desk carefully and found some papers inside — a photo of my father and a one-paper letter, folded and refolded many times. It was my letter. “In any way you choose, Mother, you always chose the act that speaks louder than words.” 21. The passage shows that . A. Mother was cold on the surface but kind in her heart to her daughter B. Mother was too serious about her daughter in words C. Mother wrote to her daughter in careful words D. Mother wrote to her daughter in careless words 22. The underlined word “gulf” in the passage means . A. deep understanding between the old and the young B. different ideas between mother and daughter C. free talks between mother and daughter D. part of the sea going far in land 23. What did Mother do with her daughter’s letter asking for forgiveness? A. She had never received the letter. B. For years, she often talked about the letter. C. She didn’t forgive her daughter at all in all her life. D. She read the letter again and again till she died. 24. What’s best title of the passage? A. My letter to Mother. B. Mother and children. C. My Mother’s Desk. D. Talks between Mother and me. B Do you know the following expressions? Homeric laughter The “Homer” in this expression is the Greek poet who wrote The Iliad and the Odyssey. People laugh differently. Some laugh silently, while others tend to laugh loudly. “Homeric laughter” refers to laughter of the latter ( 后 者 ) kind. It is at times uncontrollable, and the entire body shakes during the process. This kind of laughter is called Homeric laughter because this is how the gods laughed in Homer’s classics. Faustian bargain According to most stories, Faust was a German scholar who was rather unhappy with his life. The devil(魔鬼), Mephistopheles, promises him that in exchange for his soul, he will give Faust unlimited power and knowledge. Faust agrees and experiences all kinds of pleasures, but, in the end, his soul is condemned to the hell ( 下 地 狱 ). A “Faustian bargain” therefore is a deal that finally results in one's ruin. It means a bargain made for temporary gain without taking future consequences into consideration. A three-ring circus (马戏团) When you refer to a situation as being a three-ring circus, you are saying that it is a situation of complete confusion. There are so many activities taking place all together that they leave you confused or annoyed. The expression comes from the world of entertainment — the circus. The area where the artists perform their acts is called the “ring”. In the past, some of the circuses were so grand that they had three acts taking place simultaneously in three different “rings”. The audience had to decide which “ring” they wanted to focus on. In the swim (of things) When someone is in the swim of things, the individual is actively participating in the things happening around him, as in “I've been ill, but soon I'll be back in the swim of things.” In the world of fishing, fishermen use the word “swim” to refer to the section of the lake/river where fish can be found in plenty. So, if you are a fisherman and wish to catch a lot of fish, where would you be? You would be “in the swim”! 25. According to the text, Homeric laughter . A. was the way Homer laughed B. means nervous, silent laughter C. is a way to show disagreement D. comes from a Greek poet’s works 26. If a person makes a Faustian bargain, . A. he might come to a bad end B. he would be considered clever C. his life would become satisfying D. he would gain power and knowledge 27. What do we learn about the expression “in the swim (of things)”? A. It means having a lot of things to do． B. It has nothing to do with swimming． C. Originally it was used to refer to "going fishing"． D. Patients use it to express their desire for health. C No matter where you go in the
