Never Save Something Beautiful for That Special Day
Years ago I was talking with a classmate in Sydney. At the time his wife had just passed away not too long ago. He told me while going through her things, he found a silk scarf _1 in a designer store when they had traveled to New York City. The scarf was beautiful, with elegant _2 , and a high price tag still hanging. His wife begrudged wearing it; she was _3 it for a special day.
He _4 at that moment; I didn’t say anything either. After a long pause he said: “Never save something beautiful for that special day. Each _5 day is a special day.”
Whenever I _6 what he had said, I would put down the things I was doing to grab a novel, turn on the music and lie down on the couch to _7 some time for myself. I would appreciate the glorious scenery of the Tanshui River through a French window, _8 the dust gathered on the glass. I would take my wife out to _9 , not thinking what to do with the meal already cooked. Life should be the experience we truly cherish, not days we just have to endure.
One time I shared the above conversation with a lady. When I saw her again, she told me that she no longer _10 the beautiful china in a cabinet. She had thought to save them for a special day, only to discover that it never _11 came. “Future”, “someday” are not contained in her _12 any more. If there are things that are pleasant or make her complacent, she wants to hear or see them now.
We often hope to gather with old friends, but always say, “let’s find a(n) _13 .” We often want to hug our grown children, but always wait for the appropriate moment. We often want to write to our spouses to express our strong affection or to show our deep admiration, but always tell ourselves that there is no need to _14 . In fact, each morning when we open our eyes, we should tell ourselves that this is a special day. Each day, each minute is so incredibly _15 .

Learning values and character at home is as important as any schoolwork. We all hope that the very values 36 are important to each of us are 37 along to our children. Often, 38 , that hope is challenged by a great many of pop culture messages, peer pressure (同伴压力), and overscheduled lives.
In the real world of jobs and career, people are 39 by two standards: Their professional skills and their 40 abilities. 41 grade school, high school, and college can teach skills and proficiency, it’s 42 parents to teach children the characters that make for 43 in the real world—a cooperative attitude, 44 , optimism and honesty. So take the work 45 . Send your kids into the world ready to 46 not only the tasks of life but its difficulties with character.
You really can’t start soon enough. 47 , children need personal integrity (个人操守) and morals as much as any adult. 48 the 5 to 10 most important messages you want your children to truly understand.

科目:高中英语 来源:2011-2012学年湖北省黄冈市高三精品模拟试卷(四)英语(解析版) 题型:阅读理解
Very old people do raise moral problems for almost everyone who comes into touch with them.Their values---this can not be repeated too often--aren’t necessarily our values.Physical comfort,cleanness and order are not necessarily the most important things.The social services from time to time find themselves faced with a room with rotten food covered by small worms,and an old person lying alone on bed,taking no notice of the worms.But is it interrupting personal freedom to insist that they go to live with some of their relatives so that they might be taken better care of? Some social workers,the ones who clear up the worms,think we’re in danger of carrying this idea of personal freedom to the point where serious risks(冒险)are being taken with the health and safety of the old.
Indeed,the old can be easily hurt or harmed.The old is like a car: it needs more mechanical repair as it gets older.You can carry this comparison right through to provision of spare parts.But never forget that such operations are painful experiences,however good the results are.And at what point should you stop to treat the old body?Is it morally right to try to push off death by continuing the development of medicine to excite the forgetful old mind and to make the old body active,knowing that it is designed to die?You cannot ask doctors or scientists to decide,because so long as they can see the technical chances,they will feel it necessary to give them a try,by the rule that while there’s life,there’s hope.
Talking to the old,however,you’re forced to the conclusion that whether age is happy or unpleasant depends less on money or health than it does on your ability to have fun.
1.After reading Paragraph 1,we learn that____.
A.very old people are able to keep their living places very clean |

2.Some social workers think that_____.
A.old people should keep their living places clean |
B.one should not take risk dealing with old people |
C.health and safety are more important than personal freedom |
D.personal freedom is more important than health and safety |
3.In Paragraph 3,the underlined word“it”refers to____.
A.one’s memory or health |
B.the conclusion you have come to |
C.whether age is happy or unpleasant |
D.your talk to the old people |
4.The writer of this passage thinks that_______.
A.it is always morally right to treat old people and push off death |
B.the opinion that we should try every means possible to save old people is uncertain |
C.old people can enjoy a happy life only if they are very rich |
