I’ve loved my mother’s desk since I was just tall enough to sit above the top of is mother sat writing letters．Standing by her chair, looking at the ink bottle, pens, and white paper, I thought 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 it 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 (易动感的)”．But she lived “on the surface “．
As years passed and 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-page 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．”

Once there was a man travelling in a faraway village．As he was passing the elephants, he suddenly stopped．He found that these huge elephants were being held by only a small rope tied to their front leg．No chains(锁链), no cages．It was clear that the elephants could, at anytime, break away from their ropes but for some reason, they did not．
He saw a trainer nearby and asked why these animals just stood there and didn’t try to get away．“Well,” the trainer said, “when they are very young and much smaller we use the same size rope to tie them and, at that age, it’s enough to hold them．As they grow up, they still believe they cannot break away．They believe the rope can hold them, so they never try to break free．”
How could it be? These animals could at anytime break free from their ropes．But because they were always stuck(固定) right where they were, they believed they couldn’t．
Just like the elephants, how many of us go through life believing that we cannot do something, just because we failed at it once before?
We should never give up the struggle(斗争) in life．
38．Why do the elephants never try to break free from the ropes?

Most people who move to a foreign country may experience a period of time when they feel very homesick and have a lot of stress．This feeling is often called “culture shock”．It is important to understand it and learn how to deal with it if you want to adapt successfully to your new home’s culture．
Generally speaking, there are four stages that you will experience after you move to a foreign country．The first stage is usually referred to as the “excitement” stage．When arriving in a new environment, you’ll be interested in the new culture; everything will seem exciting and everyone will seem friendly．
But it won’t be long before you move from the “excitement” stage to the second stage．The excitement you felt before changes to stress．It seems that everything is difficult．The language is hard to learn, friends are difficult to make, and even simple things like shopping have become a challenge．It is at this “stress” stage that you are likely to feel worried and homesick．This is the stage which is referred to as “culture shock”．
However, culture shock doesn’t last for very long．If you are one of those who manage to overcome it, you’ll move to the “recovery” stage．At this stage, you start to understand and accept the way things are done and the way people behave in your new environment．
The last stage is the “home” stage．This is the stage when you start to feel at home in the new culture．You start to learn from your new home and to like certain aspects of the new culture better than those of your own culture．
Culture shock is normal．Everyone in a new situation will go through some form of it．Continue to be brave! And overcoming culture shock will be a piece of cake．
42．Among the four stages, which stage can probably explain how “culture shock” happens?
A．The excitement stage． B．The stress stage． C．The recovery stage． D．The home stage．
43．What does the underlined word “adapt” in Paragraph 1 mean?
A．Get used to． B．Hear from． C．Look forward to． D．Grow up．
44．Jane went to study in Germany and was living abroad for the first time．What might she have gone through? (Put the following in the correct order according to the passage．)

②After half a year’s hard work, Jane got rid of her language problems．
③The landmarks of Germany and the university campus were both amazing．
④Jane is now more independent in her learning and loves to spend time with her German friends．
A．①②③④ B．②④③① C．③①②④ D．③①④②

七、（本题共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
There are many holidays and festivals．Dads have Father’s Day Mums have Mother’s Day But do our grandparents have a special festival? Yes, they do!
The Double Ninth Festival is a special day for older people in China．It started long ago．The festival is on lunar September 9th．On this day, people show love and respect to their grandparents．
There are many ways in which Chinese people express their respect．When an older person enters a room, everyone stands．People are introduced from the oldest to the youngest．When we present a book to an older person, two hands are used．Young people always offer their seats to older people on a crowded subway or bus．
Respecting older people is a tradition in China．That’s because the Chinese know that older people have knowledge and experience that young people can learn．Chinese people are proud of being old．
In Western countries, however, older people seldom think they are old．They are called “seniors” instead of “old people”．They’d rather do everything themselves．Even after retirement (退休) they take up hobbies, part-time jobs and new activities to keep their bodies working well．
Westerners respect their older people, too．Usually, seniors don’t have to buy tickets for trains and buses．They are given discounts (打折) in stores and restaurants．
But Western seniors don’t often live with their children—they live alone．For holidays, the family usually gather at the grandparents’home, and a great smile and a warm hug for their parents are enough for grown children to show their respect．
