Question

I’ll never forget one summer day in 1975. On that day my mother suddenly died because of an unexplained illness at the age of 36. Later that afternoon, a police officer came to my house to ask for my father’s permission（允许）for the hospital to use Mother’s valve（心脏瓣膜）. I was greatly surprised. I ran into the house in tears. At 14, I just couldn’t understand why people would take apart（分解）a person I loved. . But my father told him, “Yes.”

“How can you let them do that to her?” I cried at him.

“Linda,” he said quietly, putting his arms around me, “the greatest present you can give is a part of yourself. Your mother and I decided long ago that if we can make a person’s life better after we died, our death will have meaning.’’

The lesson my father taught me that day became one of the most important in my life.

Years passed. I married and had a family of my own. In 1996 my father became seriously ill. With a smile he told me that when he died, he wanted to donate（捐赠）whatever was in good condition（状况）, especially his eyes.

My father died and we donated his eyes as he had wanted. Three days later, my daughter said, “Mum, I’m so proud of what you did for Grandpa.” At that moment I realized that my father gave much more than his eyes. What he left behind sparkled（闪烁）in my daughter’s eyes-pride.

试题分析：这篇短文向我们讲述了作者的父母都同意死后捐赠自己的身体器官

1.T考查细节理解。根据At 14, I just couldn’t understand why people would take apart（分解）a person I loved.可知，当时作者才14岁。故此句表达正确。

2.2】F考查细节理解。根据短文内容可知作者的母亲去世了，作者的父亲同意捐赠，把母亲的心脏瓣膜给了警察。故此句表达错误。

3.3】F考查细节理解。根据the greatest present you can give is a part of yourself.理解可知他的父母已经同意死后捐赠他们的器官，而不是他们的财富。故此句表达错误。

4.4】T考查细节理解。根据my daughter said, “Mum, I’m so proud of what you did for Grandpa.”可知，作者有一个女儿。故此句表达正确。

5.5】F考查推断题。根据My father died and we donated his eyes as he had wanted.可知，作者把自己父亲的眼角膜捐赠出去了，不是捐赠给自己的女儿。故此句表达错误。
