I have learned how much a person working in the medical field can do for them.When I was in Mexico, I met a little girl. I was watching a tooth filling with Dr Sussi 2 I heard her laughter from across the room. I saw a little kid holding a toy and dancing and 3 with my friend Kevin. But her skin looked very 4 . While I was looking at her, Dr Sussi said, “Do you know her story?”I 5 my head.“The girl got 80 percent burns on her body when she was 3 years old. Her house was 6 . She was found to have third-degree burns and immediately sent to hospital. 7 , she was saved but her skin was…”I was shocked that she had gone through so much. I walked 8 and realised that all her body was covered with scars(伤疤). Her fingers and hair were 9 gone. To be honest, I was a little afraid to look at her. Her pure eyes made me feel that she was a(n) 10 girl. She probably didn't realise 11 she was different than others.Dr Sussi told me later that her mum took her to the clinic to play with us every weekend. It is probably the only place that she can 12 the same as other kids. Perhaps the only thing we can do is to play with her or give her a 13 .

The popular film won Best Picture at the 91st Academy Awards on Feb. 25, 2019.The movie was made from the true story of a road trip through the southern US in the early 1960s. In the film, the black pianist Don Shirley asks Italian-American Tony Vallelonga to drive him to concerts, but they face problems because of Shirley's skin colour. These problems lead them to forma special friendship.“There's something so deeply right about this movie, so true to the time,” wrote US film critic(评论家) Mick Lasalle at the San Francisco Chronicle.The time Lasalle is talking about was between late 1870s and 1960s, a very different period in US history. Many parts of the country had Jim Crow laws(《吉姆·克劳法》), which allowed racial segregation(种族隔离).These laws made life and travel dangerous for African-Americans. They couldn't use certain hotels, restaurants, or even gas stations. They had to be indoors after the sunset or they might go to jail(牢). Even the famous black people had to follow the laws.But in 1936, a black mail carrier named Victor H. Green had an idea. He made a list of friendly businesses in New York City. He published the list as a small book with a green cover. The Green Book helped African-Americans travel more safely. Then, in 1964, Jim Crow laws went away. The book went away, too.Today many US people still remember the time of Jim Crow. But they probably don't know about The Green Book.It's a forgotten part of the story. Thanks to this movie, maybe people can remember it again.1.What prize did the movie win at the 91st Academy Awards? ( )A.The Best Actor.B.The Best Music.C.The Best Story.D.The Best Picture.2.Jim Crow laws had influenced the African-Americans for . ( )A.only a few yearsB.about fifty yearsC.nearly a centuryD.over a hundred years3.Whose name might be found in The Green Book? ( )A.An Italian taxi driver.B.A white American doctor.C.A friendly black musician.D.A famous African soldier.4.What will many US people do after they watch the Green Book? ( )A.They will fight against the African-Americans.B.They will come to know The Green Book again.C.They may think it is a shame to see such a film.D.They might miss the time of Jim Crow laws a lot.Ⅲ.语法填空阅读下面短文,在空白处填入一个适当的词,或填入括号中所给单词的正确形式。

(amaze) stories of instant transformation, for most of us the 9. (change) are gradual and require a lot of effort and work, like cleaning up a polluted river. Just be 10.

It's a piece of fishing equipment that the shark ate carelessly. After traveling into her body, the spike punctured(刺) through the shark's stomach.A man swimming in the water notices the shark. Then, he warns Sea World Marine Park in the nearby town of Gold Coast. Sea World sends a 12-person team from its rescue center to where the shark was discovered in Moreton Bay Marine Park. Soon, they find her lying on the seafloor. “She'll die without help,”says Trevor Long, leader of the rescue center.Using an onboard crane(吊车), the rescuers move the shark into their boat's 13-foot-long tank(缸). Then Dr. David Blyde gives the shark pain medicine and performs an operation to removethe spike. After that, the team sails with the shark to Sea World 33 miles away. They place the fish in a 49-foot-long tank and wait to see if she gets better.To give the shark's stomach time to get better, she isn't fed for the first few days. A week after her operation, Long offers the shark a small, dead fish. The animal refuses to eat. But days later when he drops another fish into her tank, the shark enjoys her meal. By now the shark's wounds are getting better.Two weeks after her rescue, they take the shark back to the boat and return her to Moreton Bay Marine Park. As the fish is lowered by the crane to the water's surface, two rescuers jump into the ocean and guide her into the sea. From the boat, Long watches her swim away.“The shark has another chance,” Long says.1.What happens to the sand tiger shark? ( )A.She is unlucky and gets hurt badly.B.She has nothing to eat for a few days.C.She swims in Sea World and loses her way.D.She is seriously ill because of sea water.2.According to the text, Sea World .

( )A.Dangers from SharksB.Sand Tiger Shark RescueC.Moreton Bay Marine ParkD.A Rescue Team From Sea WorldPassage 2As Internet users become more dependent on the Internet to store information, are people remembering less? If you know your computer will save information, why store it in your own personalmemory, your brain? Experts are wondering if the Internet is changing what we remember and how.In a recent study, Professor Betsy Sparrow conducted some experiments. She and her research team wanted to know the Internet is changing memory. In the first experiment, they gave people 40 unimportant facts to type into a computer. The first group of people understood that the computer would save the information. The second group understood that the computer would not save it. Later, the second group remembered the information better. People in the first group knew they could find the information again, so they did not try to remember it.In another experiment, the researchers gave people facts to remember, and told them where to find the information on the Internet. The information was in a specific computer folder(文件夹). Surprisingly, people later remember the folder location better than the facts. When people use the Internet, they do not remember the information. Rather, they remember how to find it. This is called “transactive memory(交互记忆)”.According to Sparrow, we are not becoming people with poor memories as a result of the Internet. Instead, computer users are developing stronger transactive memories; that is, people are learning how to organize huge quantities of information so that they are able to access it at a later date. This doesn't mean we are becoming either more or less intelligent, but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing.5.The passage begins with two questions to . ( )A.show the author's attitudeB.introduce the main topicC.describe how to use the InternetD.explain how to store information6.What can we learn about the first experiment? ( )A.Sparrow's team typed the information into a computer.B.The first group did not try to remember the information.C.The two groups remembered the information equally well.D.The second group did not understand the information.7.In transactive memory, people . ( )A.keep the information in mindB.change the quantity of informationC.remember how to find the informationanize information like a computer8.What is the effect of the Internet according to Sparrow's research? ( )A.We are becoming more intelligent.B.We are using memory differently.C.We have poorer memories than before.D.We need a better way to access information.Ⅲ.[2020·原创]任务型阅读下面文章中共有5处(第1—5题)需要添加小标题。

Most children learn to read and write at an early age and use these skills to get and share information in books, magazines, letters, and messages. Businesses depend on written words to municate and to sell products. Governments depend on written documents as the basis for their laws. We would be lost without writing.The earliest people had no system of writing. Writing developed over thousands of years in different cultures around the world,like ancient Egypt, Mesopotamia, Crete, China, and so on.Long before, drawings were used as a form of munication. Rock drawings are found in many places. One rock drawing in the mountainous part of New Mexico shows a mountain goat standing up and a man riding a horse upside down. Archaeologists(考古学家) believe that the drawing was a warning to riders that the road was too dangerous to walk.Modern forms of writing began when people learned to use symbols, such as letters and words to stand for ideas. At first, they used pictures that stood for words. For example, a picture might show a hunter, the weapons(武器) the hunter used, and a pair of deer the hunter killed. Then, Sumerians in Mesopotamia learned to use the same symbols to stand for different words. Ancient Egyptians used symbols known as hieroglyphs(象形字). It was similar to the writing of the Sumerians.Even greater advances were made in China about 3,500 years ago. The Chinese used thousands of signs and they could write proper names and new words. However, this was a knotty system. To make writing easier, things had to be made in easy way. The answer was the development of alphabets. The Phoenicians are often credited with developing one of the first useful alphabets. The Phoenician alphabet used about 20 or 30 signs. They were well on their way to at least one type of modern writing because the modern English alphabet uses 26 letters.1.What's the purpose of Paragraph 1? ( )A.To show how important the writing is in our daily lives.B.To tell that writing is used mostly in business and government.C.To pare the writing of young people with the writing of adults.D.To explain where writing to be seen.2.Modern forms of writing started when people used . ( )A.symbols like letters and wordsB.proper names and new wordsC.the Phoenician alphabetD.the modern English alphabet3.What does the underlined word “knotty” in t he last paragraph probably mean? ( )A.Acceptable.B.Difficult.C.Meaningless.D.mon.4.The text mainly talks about . ( )A.who invented writingB.when writing appearedC.how writing developedD.what writing wasPassage 2 [2020·原创]How do you celebrate your birthday? Do you have a birthday party or get many best wishes from your friends or family? People celebrate birthdays almost in the same way—birthday cakes, birthday candles, birthday songs are very often seen. However, there are also some special ways to celebrate birthdays.In Nigeria (a country in Africa), the 1st, 5th, 10th, and 15th birthdays are very important to them. On these birthdays, they often have very big parties with more than 100 guests. They often eat a roasted cow or goat. There is also a very special food called “Joll of Rice”. It's the rice with tomatoes, red pepper, onions and sweet potatoes.In Korea, the most important birthday is “paegil”. It's on the 100th day after a child's birth. The family and friends get together to have a big dinner with rice cakes, wine and other delicious food like red and black bean cakes. It's said if 100 people share with the rice cakes, the child will have a long life. So parents often send the rice cakes to as many people as possible to share happiness. Parents also put the red and black bean cakes in the house because they believe the bean cakes can lead to good luck and happiness.In China, the 1st birthday is very important to a baby. The parents often put the baby in the center of a group of things, such as coins, a doll, a book, etc. And wait to see which thing the baby picks up. If the baby picks up a coin, he or she may be rich. If the baby chooses the book, he or she may bee a teacher. If the baby reaches for the doll, he or she may have many children. The sixth birthday is also a special birthday for the Chinese child. Parents often cook a bowl of very long noodles to wish the birthday child a long life.All of these ways to celebrate birthdays may be different, but the wishes of good luck and happiness are the same.5.Which of the following is linked(有联系) to a long life? ( )A.Putting the red and black bean cakes in the house in Korea.B.Picking up the things on the first birthday in China.C.Having a very big birthday party in Nigeria.D.Sharing the rice cakes with 100 people in Korea.6.How do people usually celebrate their birthdays in the world? ( )A.They have cakes with candles and sing birthday songs.B.They eat delicious “Joll of Rice”.C.They have a bowl of very long noodles.D.They have a big dinner with rice cakes.7.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? ( )A.People in Nigeria have four birthdays to celebrate.B.People in Korea eat “Joll of Rice” to celebrate birthdays.C.Paegil is the most important birthday for people in Korea.D.Coins mean a long life in Chinese pick-up games on the 1st birthday.8.Which of the following shows the structure(结构) of the passage?

His parents always had him doing lots of housework such as carrying out the rubbish and sending newspapers. But when he grew up, he was better off than his childhood friends and lived a happier and healthier life.This is the finding of a 40-year study that followed the lives of 456 children in London. It showed that the children who had worked hard in childhood had a richer and a happier future. “Children who worked in the home or community gained competence(能力) and came to feel they were worthwhile members of soci ety,” said Daniel Brown,the psychologist(心理学家) who made the discovery. “And because they felt good about themselves, others felt good about them.”Brown's study followed these children in great detail. Interviews were repeated at ages 25, 31 and 47. Under Brown, the researchers compared the children's mental-health scores with their childhood-activity scores. Points were awarded for part-time jobs, housework, effort in school, and ability to deal with problems.Working at any age is important. Childhood activities help a child develop responsibility, independence, confidence and competence—the underpinnings(基础) of emotional health. They also help him understand that people must cooperate and work toward common goals. The most competent adults are those who know how to do this.Yet work isn't everything. As Tolstoy once said, “One can live magnificently in this world if one knows how to work and how to love, to work for the person one loves and to love one's work.”4.What do we know about Justin Tong? ( )A.He enjoyed a happy life.B.He felt sorry for the other kids.C.He always sold newspapers.D.He seldom collected rubbish.5.Who will probably succeed in the future according to Paragraph 2? ( )A.Children who enjoy happier and richer lives.B.Children who work in the home or community.C.Children who take part in Daniel Brown's study.D.Children who feel good about people around them.6.How did Brown follow the children in his study? ( )A.By giving housework and praise.B.By interviewing and giving scores.C.By setting goals and showing love.D.By solving problems and testing them.7.The purpose of the passage is . ( )A.to talk about an interesting studyB.to introduce Justin Tong's successC.to tell us about childhood activitiesD.to encourage children to work hard【参考答案】Ⅰ.[主旨大意]本文为小说《雾都孤儿》节选改编,主人公Polly在大雾中迷路,遇陌生老人相助带路,在途中她意识到老人可能是个盲人,因此她更加焦急。

Sometimes choosing where to eat in Hangzhou is something of a challenge. No matter how good the food 1.(taste) at a chosen restaurant, one may always wonder. “Is there anything 2. on the next street?” However, I've found the answer to this question. When I 3.(ask) to name my favorite place to eat in Hangzhou, I will reply right away, “Lou Wai Lou Restaurant”. Why is Lou Wai Lou so special 4. hundreds of restaurants? Well, for me it comes down to a perfect balance of delicious food, pleasant atmosphere(氛围) and a near perfect location.Before coming to Hangzhou, I was warned by my friends from other 5. (city) in China that the food could be too sweet. For the first few months I chose 6. (eat) in Sichuan or Hunan style restaurants instead of eating much local food. However, 7. falling in love with the city, I came to realize that the food is so 8.(close) connected with its local culture. 9. I asked a local friend to recommend the best place to try real local style food. She came up with the name of Lou Wai Lou.For a first-time visitor, “Dongpo Pork” and “Sweet and Sour Fish”are excellent choices. Hangzhou has become my home and I have 10. lifetime to enjoy each and every dish on the menu.Ⅱ. 阅读理解Passage 1My challenge for you is this: to read a book for 15 minutes every single day for a month.Let me explain a bit, by telling you where the challenge came from. I have many things in common with my dad, like music taste and sense of humor, but sadly reading isn't one of them. I can happily spend a whole day with a book, but my dad can't read a book for longer than about 5 minutes. He reads e-mails, websites and papers for work, but not books. He's busy so I think sitting down to read for just 15 minutes a day is a good way to relax and to introduce him to reading.My dad is by no means the only person who avoids books. I know lots of people would rather relaxon their computers or in front of the TV. Everyone is different and has their own interests, but I think there're lots of benefits to reading, which screen-based activities don't have.Firstly, it's better for your eyes. Looking at screens can be very stressful for your eye muscles, and clearly you should avoid looking at screens for an hour before bed, to get a good night's sleep.One thing I personally love reading, is being transported to another world—I would often forget the time or things around me! Reading is a great way to switch off before you go to bed, because you think more about the world of the book, rather than the real world, so you can truly relax.I know you can be transported to a different world in a film or a TV show, but I think books do it better.I also enjoy hearing what people are doing and finding out what they think. Reading gives me the chance to get to know hundreds of new people! It also teaches you to see things from other people's point of view, and understand other people's decisions or opinions. With a book, you can hear everything a character is thinking or feeling—you really can be inside someone else's head!So give it a go! Take 15 minutes when you're waking up, going to bed, eating too much, or having a coffee. If you read a lot, why not try 15 minutes of an English book, or pass the challenge on to someone else? Good luck, and happy reading!1.The author gives the example of his father in the text to show . ( )A.his father is very busyB.reading is very important to usC.his father likes readingD.many people have no habit of reading2.In the author's opinion, the following are the benefits of reading except .( )A.it's good for eyesB.it can know well about the charactersC.it can help to relax before sleepingD.it can bring him to another country3.The author writes the text mainly basing on .( )A.his personal experienceB.some scientific experimentsC.his father's personal adviceD.knowledge from books4.Which of the following can be the best title for the text? ( )A.Tips for Reading English BooksB.15-Minute Reading ChallengeC.Having a Coffee While You ReadD.Ways to Improve Reading SkillsPassage 2Japanese students work very bard but many are unhappy. They feel heavy pressures from their parents. Most students are always told by their parents to study harder and better so that they can have a wonderful life in the future. Though this may be a good idea for those very bright students, it can have terrible results for many students who are not gifted enough. Many of them have tried very hard at school but have failed in the exams and have their parents lose hope. Such students feel that they are hated by everyone else they meet and they don't want to go to school any longer. They become dropouts.It is surprising that though most Japanese parents are worried about their children, they do not help them in any way. Many parents feel that they are not able to help their children and that it is the teachers' work to help their children. To make matters worse, a lot of parents force their children to those schools opening in the evenings and on weekends—they only help the students to pass the exams and never teach them any real sense of the world.Many Japanese schools usually have rules about everything from the students' hair to their clothes and things in their schoolbags. Child psychologists now think that such strict rules are harmful to the feelings of the students. Almost 40% of the students said that no one had taught them how to get on with others, how to tell right from wrong and how to show love and care for others, even for their parents.5.“Dropouts” are those who . ( )A.make trouble in and out of schoolsB.go about or stay home instead of being at schoolC.try hard but always fail in the examsD.lose hope and give up some of their subjects6.The underlined word “gifted” in the first paragraph means .

Money makes the world go around, yet the best things in life are free. A penny saved is a penny earned, but you get what you pay for. You probably have your own ideas about spending money. Now it is a great time to learn how to spend money wisely.When you are considering buying something you want, run through this checklist first.1.Seeing a $25(172 yuan) gum ball machine, Peter wanted it at first. But after thinking about it, he decided that it would be exciting only for a day or two.“Besides, it's impossible for me to chew much gum,” he said wisely.2.If the thing passes the “really-wanting-it” test, try to wait for some time(maybe some days or a week) to see how strong the desire is. Perhaps at that time, you don't want it any longer. This strategy works for grown-ups, too!3.After the first two steps, Peter found he really wanted a toy ship, but it cost $50.He had $22 in his pocket and got $1.50 a week to spend. His mother helped him work out how many weeks he would need to save enough money to get the ship.4.Peter had a lot of things to do to help his family. He could water the flowers, do the dishes or walk the dog. Finally, he decided to wash the downstairs windows at a dollar each. He got $10 for himself, and sparkling(闪亮的) sunlight for the rest of the family.5.After deciding to buy it, it is necessary for you to look for cheaper ways to buy it: search for what you want on the Internet or in shops and flea markets. Sometimes you can find the same thing at a much lower price.If these suggestions work well, they can save you a lot of money. You will be a really smart shopper.A.Are there any ways to earn money?B.How much do you really want it?C.Do you still want it a week later?D.How will you pay for it?E.Do you have enough money?F.Can you get it cheaper?Ⅱ. 完形填空My daughter, Alisa, is three years old.

He has also experienced life's lows too. This has taught him that having a clear picture of oneself is the key to everything.“I grew overconfident at the top of my career, and I began to lose fai th when things turned against me,” he said. “Then I realized that dreams will only come true if I put myself in the right place.” He has made his several albums, such as Teen Spirit, Ocean and so on after he went solo(独唱) from the rock band Dada. As the name of Teen Spirit suggests, the album is about his experiences and memories in his youth. “The teenage years is a special restless period in life, with lots of doubt, nervousness with wise and foolish ideas together,” said Peng.When younger, he first dreamed of being a painter, until one day the singing of Cui Jian ignited(点燃) his passion for rock music. In 1996, he became the lead singer in the band Dada, which he set up with his classmates from junior school. Soon, they topped the music charts(排行榜) and got lots of prizes. However, the good days didn't last. The band broke up. Peng became upset and began doubting his own ability. He then went to the Beijing Pop Festival and saw his favorite foreign band, Super Grass. This changed everything. “I almost went mad when I heard them singing,” he said. “Light fell on the lead singer's excited face. Suddenly I realized who I wanted to be like.” After that, he was back on track(重回正轨) and found his confidence. He knew he had the talent and couldn't help making a r ecord quickly. Soon after, he was given the chance. “When you adjust your position well in life, opportunities will come to you naturally,” he said.1.Teen Spirit is about Peng's . ( )A.stories in his youthB.dream of the rock musicC.confidence for the jobD.love towards the life2.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

( )A.He stops singing.B.He becomes unconfident.C.His confidence changes everything.D.He comes back with a new attitude.Passage 2Don't be too surprised if you see a car going down the road without a driver in Beijing these days. It might be one of Baidu's self-driving cars. Last month, Baidu was presented with a license to test its self-driving cars on open roads in Beijing. China Daily reported.Self-driving cars have been in development since 2010, when Google announced that it was making such cars. After that, companies like Tesla, Uber and Baidu started working to produce and test their own self-driving cars.Self-driving cars are expected to change the way we get around. They are safer and more environmentally friendly than regular cars. They can remove the stress of driving and allow disabled or blind people to get around more easily.But self-driving cars have their own shortcomings as well. In one test, researchers pointed a laser pointer(激光棒) at the car's sensors(感应器) while it was moving. The car thought by mistake that the laser beam(波束) was in its way and slowed down or changed direction. Shortcomings like this could be used by people to trick self-driving cars, according to the Guardian.The software that it is used to help the cars travel in the right direction may not be safe enough, reported Live Science. It may go wrong. When we use our computers or smartphones, they sometimes go wrong without any reason. But if this happened to a self-driving car, the results couldbe terrible. It is hopeful that improvement to the software could be a way to work out this problem.5.What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about? ( )A.Self-driving cars for disabled people.B.Tips for riding in self-driving cars.C.Advantages of self-driving cars.D.Reasons for testing self-driving cars.6.When sensing an obstacle(障碍) in the road, self-driving cars will . ( )A.attack it with a laser beamB.slow down or change directionC.crash into it to get past itD.stop and move around it7.What does the underlined word “it” refer to?()A.The laser pointer.B.The sensor.C.The self-driving car.D.The street.8.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? ( )A.Self-driving cars will be used as taxis in Beijing in the future.B.Traveling in self-driving cars can always be safe.C.Traveling in self-driving cars may make people more relaxed.D.Researchers have found ways to solve the problems self-driving cars have.【参考答案】Ⅰ.[主旨大意]本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了作者和妻子在自己生活极其不宽裕的情况下帮助了一个无家可归的人,后来他们的善举得到了其他人的响应,越来越多的人加入到帮助他人的行列中来。

Ⅱ. 阅读理解Passage 1 [2020·原创]Fireworks(烟花) may seem like a very American tradition, especially on the 4th of July. But fireworks go back many years before the first American Independence Day celebration, which took place in 1777, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.The earliest fireworks can be traced(追溯) to around 2,000 years ago in China. People then are said to have roasted bamboo stalks. The stalks turned black and sizzled. The air inside the hollowstalks would explode(爆炸). Baozhu is a Mandarin Chinese word for firecracker. It means “e xploding bamboo”.Years later, Chinese chemists took fireworks a step further. This happened sometime between 600 and 900 A.D. People filled bamboo shoots with gunpowder. They threw them into a fire pit. Steel dust or iron shavings were added to make them sparkle. In China, these firecrackers were often used in celebrations.In the 13th century, fireworks spread to Europe. In the centuries that followed, Europeans began moving to North America. So it was no surprise that when July 4th began to be celebrated as America's Independence Day, fireworks were part of the plan.John Adams was one of America's Founding Fathers. He said he hoped the anniversary of the country's independence would be marked for years to come by “bonfires”.The first July 4th celebration happened during the middle of the Revolutionary War. Cannons were fired. Fireworks, too, marked the occasion.Today, fireworks are an established July 4 tradition. Will you see a fireworks display this Independence Day?Note: It is dangerous (and illegal, in some states) to own and set off fireworks. The use of fireworks is best left to professionals.1.What do Chinese people use to make fireworks?( )A.Bamboo stalks.B.Gunpowder.C.Steel dust.D.All the above.2.What can we know about fireworks in the passage? ( )A.Fireworks appeared between 600 and 900 A.D.B.Fireworks are also called as “exploding bamboo”.C.Fireworks spread to North America first, then to Europe.D.The first July 4th celebration only used fireworks to make the occasion.3.Who can set off fireworks in America?

( )A.fireworks are part of the celebrations in EuropeB.fireworks are used in every country nowC.Americans can watch a fireworks display this Independence DayD.many countries don't allow people to set off fireworksPassage 2 [2020·原创]On the second Sunday in May, American children of all ages treat their mothers to something special. It is the day when children, young and old, try to show how much they appreciate(感激) their mothers, or those who have served as mother figures in their lives.England was one of the first countries to set aside(留出) a day to recognize mothers. In the eighteenth century when many people worked as servants for the rich, “Mothering Sunday” was a day for them to return home to be with their mothers. Though this custom changed after the Industrial Revolution, mothers in England are still honored with a special day in March.In the United States, the idea of Mother's Day was first introduced in 1872 by Julia Ward Howe, a famous writer and social reformer of the time. However, the establish men of an official day to honor mothers was because of the love of one daughter, Anna Jarvis. As a girl, Anna helped her mother take care of her garden, filled mostly with white carnations, her mother's favorite flower. When Mrs. Jarvis died on May 5, 1905, Anna decided to honor her. Anna Jarvis began writing to members of congress, asking them to set aside a day to honor mothers. In 1910, the governor of West Virginia decided the second Sunday in May as Mother's Day. A year later, every state was celebrating it, and in 1914 President Woodrow Wilson declared(宣布) the first national Mother's Day.On Mother's Day morning, some American children follow the tradition of serving their mothers breakfast in bed. Other children will give their mothers gifts that they have made themselves or bought in stores. Adults also give their mothers cards, gifts, and flowers—often red carnations, the official Mother's Day flower. Mother's Day is the busiest day of the year for American restaurants. Because family members do not want Mom to have to cook dinner!5.When did Mother's Day become a national Mother's Day? ( )A.In 1905.B.In 1910.C.In 1911.D.In 1914.6.Which of the following is wrong? ( )A.People show thanks to mothers and those who have served as mother figures.B.People in England honor their mothers on the second Sunday in May.C.Julia Ward first introduced the idea of Mother's Day.D.Anna's mother's favorite flower is white carnations.7.According to the passage, what might people do on Mother's Day except . ( )A.serve their mothers breakfast in bedB.give their mothers giftsC.eat dinner at a restaurant with MothersD.help their mothers take care of the garden8.What is the purpose of the passage? ( )A.To talk about the lady Anna Jarvis.B.To ask us to be kind and helpful to Mothers.C.To tell us the history and tradition of Mother's Day.D.To tell the difference of Mother's Day in England and America.Ⅲ. 任务型阅读下面文章中共有5处(第1—5题)需要添加小标题。
