1.Dear Baby,
As I am writing this to you,you are safely growing in your mother's womb,getting a little bigger and stronger by the day.You are not due to this world until the first week of January,I've been told,but I have to admit,I have been thinking a lot about you lately.I don't know if you're a little girl or a little boy.Nobody knows actually except for the doctors.See,your Mom has chosen not to know,so you will be a surprise to everyone,and I like it that way.You've got a fine mother.I don't know her that well,having met her only twice,but she impressed me with her personality and her qualities.Needless to say,I like her a lot.On the other hand,I know your father quite well:he's my son.And I can tell you right now,he has no idea of the responsibilities that are going to fall upon his shoulders,the very minute we hear your first cry.But he'll manage,just like I did,just like my father and his father before him did.
As impatient as I am for you to join the large family,I am also worried.The thought crossed my mind that something could go wrong with you or your Mom.You know,the kind of feeling one experiences before boarding an airplane.We know everything will be fine in the end,but we can't help thinking about it anyway.But so far,you're both doing just fine.Isn't an ultrasound (超声波) the greatest thing?Too bad we can't just look at yours for now!
What worries me too is your future.This world you're coming into is not human friendly.Of course,we all want the best possible for you,but we live in troubled times and I don't foresee your life being so easy,wishing of course I am wrong.I am the first generation in our family who hasn't been called to go to war in over a hundred years.Your Dad is the second generation.My dearest wish for you is that you will be part of the third generation.
The irony is that,as time progresses,humanity should learn from experiences and mistakes,but as our life is made easier all the time with new technology,I get the notion that somehow,we are going backwards.One would think that with such powerful means as the Internet,for example,communication between people as well as education in general would improve.Is it the case?I'm not sure.Anyway,we'll have plenty of time later to discuss this as you grow up and learn.Because you don't know it yet,but you and I will talk a lot,provided I am around for some time.
You're coming to this world with a lot of pluses on your side.You will be born into a close knit,loving family,and even though it can be overbearing sometimes,this alone,Child,is priceless!Both your parents are good providers,so you will probably always have what you need until you fly off the nest.Both of them work in the medical field,so your health and growth will be carefully watched.Both sets of your grandparents are alive and reasonably well,so you can be sure they'll all stand in everybody's and each other's way just to catch a glimpse of you.
But in the end,your life will be yours,and your decisions and choices will determine which direction you want to go.Most likely,you will be baptized (洗礼) and that's where we'll draw the line.You will be left to make your own decisions as you grow up and discover the world,but you'll never be alone to do so,you can always rely on any of us for advice and help if you so wish.We'll be there for you.
Love,
Your Grandfather (you know,the crazy,ugly one!)
57.What do we know about the baby's father?B
A.He is successful but irresponsible.

16.I've loved my mother's desk since I was just tall enough to sit above the top of it.Mother sat writing letters.Standing by her chair,looking at the ink bottle,pens,and white paper,I decided 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 in 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 (易动感情的)".But she lived"on the surface (表面)".
As years passed,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-paper 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."
71.The writer began to love her mother's deskC.
A.after Mother died          
B.before she became a writer
C.when she was a child

B.Mother was too serious about her daughter in words
C.Mother wrote to her daughter in careful words
D.Mother wrote to her daughter in careless words
73.The underlined word"gulf"in the passage meansB.
A.deep understanding between the old and the young
B.different ideas between mother and daughter
C.free talks between mother and daughter
D.part of the sea going far in land
74.What did Mother do with her daughter's letter asking for forgiveness?D
A.She had never received the letter.
B.For years,she often talked about the letter.
C.She didn't forgive her daughter at all in all her life.
D.She read the letter again and again till she died.
75.What's best title of the passage?C
A.My letter to Mother             
B.Mother and children
