Alice’s mother died when she was five. Although her brothers and sisters were loving and caring, their love couldn’t take the place of a mother’s. In 1925 Alice became my mother and told me that her family couldn’t even afford her a doll.

One afternoon in December 1982, when I was getting ready for Christmas, I suddenly decided to buy two dolls, one for my five-year-old daughter, Katie, and one for my old mother.

Things went smoothly when a friend told me that his dad, who played Santa Claus in my area, would be willing to make a visit on Christmas morning to our home with the gifts! Knowing that my parents would also come to my house, I began to get ready for the most memorable day of my mother’s life.

Christmas Day arrived and so did Santa Claus at the planned time. Katie was very excited and happy all the time to welcome the Santa. My mother was enjoying watching Katie welcoming this special guest. As Santa turned to leave he looked again into his bag and took out one more gift. As he asked who Alice was, my mother, without thinking of her name being called, said that she in fact was Alice. Santa handed her the gift with a message card that read:

For Alice:

I was cleaning out my sleigh (雪橇) before my trip this year and came across this package that should be sent on December 25, 1925. The gift inside has aged, but I felt that you might still wish to have it. Many apologies for the lateness of the gift.

Love,

Santa Claus

My mother was very excited and deeply moved to tears. She couldn’t speak but only held tightly in her arms the doll she had waited fifty-seven years to receive as tears of joy flew down her face. That doll made my mother the happiest “child”.

1.Why couldn’t Alice get a doll as a child?

A. Because her mother died quite early.

B. Because her family disliked her.

C. Because her family was very poor.

D. Because Alice didn’t love dolls.

2.What did the friend’s father do that Christmas morning?

A. He acted as Santa Claus to send Christmas gifts.

B. He went to her home to see Alice.

C. He bought some Christmas gifts for Katie.

D. He helped her to get Christmas gifts ready.

3.Why didn’t Alice expect there was also a gift for her?

A. The gifts from Santa Claus were usually for children.

B. The gift was forgotten many years ago.

C. The gift for her was bought by accident on the way.

D. The gifts for Katie were enough to share with her.

4.The author wrote the message card in order to _________.

A. show her deep apology to her mother

B. make it clear that Santa Claus didn’t forget her

C. show that Santa Claus was hard-working

“Can I see my baby？” the happy new mother asked. When the bundle was in her arms and she moved the fold of cloth to look upon his tiny face, she gasped. The doctor turned quickly and looked out of the tall hospital window. The baby had been born without ears.

Time proved that the baby’ s hearing was perfect. It was only his appearance that was imperfect. When he rushed home from school one day and threw himself into his mother’s arms, she sighed(叹息), knowing that his life was to be unfortunate. He cried to his mum “A boy, a big boy... called me a freak (怪人)．”

He grew up, handsome. A favorite with his fellow students, he might have been class president, but for that. He developed a gift, a talent for literature and music. “But you might communicate with other young people，” his mother blamed him, but felt a kindness in her heart.

Two years went by. One day, his father said to the son, “You’ re going to the hospital, son. Mother and I have someone who will donate the ears you need. But it’ s a secret.” The operation was a great success, and a new person appeared.

Later he married and became a lawyer. One day, he asked his father, “Who gave me the ears? Who gave me so much? I could never do enough for him or her.” “I do not believe you could，” said the father, “but the agreement was that you are not to know... not yet.”

The years kept their secret, but the day did come. He stood with his father over his mother’ s casket棺材. Slowly, tenderly, the father stretched forth a hand and raised the thick, reddish brown hair to show the mother had no outer ears.

“Mother said she was glad she never let her hair be cut，” his father whispered gently, “and nobody ever thought Mother less beautiful, did they？”

1.Why did Mother gasp when she saw her newborn baby?

A．Because her son had a tiny face.

B．Because she saw her son crying.

C．Because her son was born imperfect.

D．Because her son was in her arms.

2.Which word can describe Mother’ s feeling when the son threw himself into her arms?

A．Nervous.          B．Sympathetic.       C．Proud.            D．Angry.

3.We can infer that the person who donate the ears is_____.

A．A doctor.          B．His father.         C．His mother.        D．A stranger.

4.From the passage we know the followings are True except________

A．the mother felt sorry for the son without ears

B．the doctor didn’t like the baby

C．the boy meant everything to the mother

D．the father kept the secret until mother died

5.The best title for the passage would be ________.

A．Mother’s hair                         B．An unforgettable memory

C．Who gave me the ears?                   D．Who is my best respectable person?
