It was a cold winter. The day my husband fell to his death, it started to snow, just 31 any November day. His 32 , when I found it, was lightly covered with snow.

I dropped to my knees and crawled back upstairs, 35 those good people would not see me. I was 36 . My first thought was, how would I ever 37 them?

第三部分：阅读理解(共20小题; 每小题2分，满分40分)

阅读下列短文，从每篇短文后所给各题的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

People use their mouths for many things. They eat, talk, shout and sing. They smile and they kiss. In the English language, there are many expressions using the word “mouth.”

For example, if you say bad things about a person, the person might protest and say “Do not bad mouth me.” Sometimes, people say something to a friend or family member that they later regret because it hurts that person’s feelings. Or they tell the person something they were not supposed to tell. The speaker might say: “I really put my foot in my mouth this time.” If this should happen, the speaker might feel down in the mouth. In other words, he might feel sad for saying the wrong thing.

Another situation is when someone falsely claims another person said something. The other person might protest: “I did not say that. Do not put words in my mouth.”

Some people have lots of money because they were born into a very rich family. There is an expression for this, too. You might say such a person, “was born with a silver spoon in his mouth.” This rich person is the opposite of a person who lives from hand to mouth. This person is very poor and only has enough money for the most important things in life, like food.

Parents might sometimes withhold sweet food from a child as a form of punishment for saying bad things. For example, if a child says things she should not say to her parents, she might be described as a mouthy child. The parents might even tell the child to stop mouthing off.

But enough of all this talk. I have been running my mouth long enough.

51.In what kind of situation will a person say “Do not bad mouth me.” ?

A.When he feels down. B.When he feels regretful.

C.When he is spoken ill of. D.When he feels innocent.

52.If a person feels sorry for what he has said, he might say “ .”

A.Do not bad mouth me

B.I really put my foot in my mouth this time

C.Do not put words in my mouth

D.Stop mouthing off

53.If a person lives from hand to mouth, it implies .

A.he is badly – off B.he is hard – working

C.he is well – off D.he has enough to eat

54.By saying, “I have been running my mouth long enough”, the speaker means “ ”.

A.I have run a long way B.I have been a mouthy person

C.I have learned a lot D.I have talked too much

B

We would probably all be amazed if we watched a videotape of ourselves performing basically unconscious acts as we go about the business of the day. These unconscious acts consist of all the little personal habits that we don’t even think about, but definitely should. These are some of the things that present an image of who we are to others, and if we are careless in performing them, this image may well be other than we would like it to be.

Parents who insist that their children practice good manners and habits at home are doing them a great service, for these habits then become lifelong and the natural way they do things. It proves true that their unconscious actions will reflect a well-mannered person.

People who, for example, eat with both arms on the table at home will likely do so when out. Those who are lazy and slow in private will certainly be so in public. Children who are permitted to be disrespectful to their parents will follow suit with other adults, and will, most likely, become adults who are disrespectful of others. This is an area where the saying “practice makes perfect” may be applied.

There is an article about the actress, Audrey Hepburn, known for her beautiful carriage and posture. According to her biographer, her grandmother tied her neck to the back of her chair, at table, so that she would not drop down suddenly over her food, but rather would learn to put only small amounts of food on her spoon or fork and bring them to her mouth. This is a rather extreme “at home” method for the development of erect (直立的) posture, but it does illustrate the effectiveness of practicing good habits so that, when in public, they are instinctive.

55. Which of the following expresses the main idea of the passage?

A. Parents should be responsible for their children’s good habits.

B. The actress is well known for her beautiful posture.

C. We should always be aware of our manners.

D. Without good manners, one can never be perfect.

56. Those who eat with both arms on the table at home ______.

A. will probably change the habit when eating out with their relatives

B. will probably have the same habit when they have meals in the restaurant

C. will feel embarrassed when having meals with so many strangers in public

D. will always put their arms on the table no matter where they eat

57. The meaning of “practice makes perfect” in the third paragraph is ______.

A. the more practice one has, the better job he will do

B. the more perfect one is, the more practice he needs

C. if one has enough practice, he will become perfect

D. perfect makes a person practice more

58. Which of the following are NOT true?

A. If we are not careful about our unconscious acts, the images of ourselves presented to others will be quite undesirable.

B. The good habits formed in one’s childhood will benefit him throughout his life.

C. If parents do not care about the disrespectful attitude adopted by their children towards themselves, their children might be disrespectful to others.

D. It is unlikely that a well-mannered person will not embarrass himself in public.
