    I made a promise to myself on the way down to the vacation beach cottage. For two weeks I would try to be a loving husband and father. Totally loving. No ifs, ands or buts.

    The idea had come to me as I listened to a talk on my car radio. The speaker was quoting a Biblical passage about husbands and their wives. Then he went on to say, “Love is an act of will. A person can choose to love.” To myself, I had to admit that I had been a selfish husband. Well, for two weeks that would change.

    And it did. On arriving at the beach cottage, I kissed Evelyn meeting me at the door and said, “That new yellow sweater looks great on you.” “Oh, Tom, you noticed”, sh e said, surprised and pleased. Maybe a little puzzled. After the long drive, I wanted to sit and read. Evelyn suggested a walk on the beach. I  started to refuse, but then I thought, “Evelyn’s been alone here with the kids all week and now she wants to be alone with me.” We walked on the beach while the children flew their kites.

    So it went. Two weeks of not calling the Wall Street firm where I am a director; a visit to the shell museum though I usually hate museums. Relaxed and happy, that’s how the whole vacation passed. I made a new promise to keep on remembering to choose love.?

    There was one thing that went wrong with my experiment, however. Evelyn and I still laugh about it today. On the last night at our cottage, preparing for bed, Evelyn stared at me with the saddest expression.

    “What’s the matter?” I asked her.

    “Tom,” she said in a voice filled with distress, “ I don’t?”

    “What do you mean?”

    “Well…that checkup I had several weeks ago…our doctor…did he tell you something about me? Tom, you’ve been so good to me…am I dying?”

    It took a moment for it all to be understood. Then I burst out laughing.

    “No, honey,” I said, wrapping her in my arms. “You’re not dying; I’m just starting to live.”

    1.  From the story we may infer that Tom drove to the beach cottage ______.

    A. with his family     B. with Evelyn    C. alone      D. with his children

    2. During the two weeks on the beach, Tom showed more love to his wife because ______.

    A. he was determined to be a good husband

    B. he had made a lot of money in his Wall Street firm

    C. she looked lovely in  her new clothes

    D. the doctor said his wife was seriously ill

    3. The author says, “There was one thing that went wrong with my experiment.” What does “one thing” refer to?

    A. He praised her sweater, which puzzled her.

    B. She insisted on visiting a museum, which he hated.

    C. He knew something about her illness but didn’t tell her.

    D. He was so good to her that she thought she must be dying.

    4. By saying “I’m just starting to live,” Tom means that ______.

    A. he is just beginning to understand the real meaning of life

    B. he is just beginning to enjoy life as a loving husband

    C. he lived an unhappy life before and is now starting to change

    D. he is beginning to feel regret for what he did to his wife before

    阅读理解。

         I suddenly heard an elephant crying as though frightened. Looking down, I immediately recognized that
    something was wrong, and ran down to the edge of the near bank. There I saw Ma Sh we with her
    three- month- old calf struggling in the fastrising water, and it was a life- and- death struggle. Her calf was
    floating and screaming with fear. Ma Shwe was as near to the far bank as she could get, holding her whole
    body against the rushing water, and keeping the calf pressed against her huge body. Every now and then the
    rushing water would sweep the calf away.
         There was a sudden rise in the water and the calf was washed clean over the mother's body and was
    gone. Ma Shwe turned quickly to reach it and pressed the calf with her head and trunk (象鼻) against the
    rocky bank. Then with a huge effort, she picked it up in her trunk and tried until she was able to place it on
    a narrow shelf of rock.
         Just at this moment, she fell back into the river. If she were carried down, it would be certain death. I
    knew, as well as she did, that there was one spot (地点) where she could get up the bank, but it was on the
    other side from where she had put her calf.
          While I was wondering what I could do next, I heard the sound of a mother's love. Ma Shwe had crossed
     the river and got up the bank and was making her way back as fast as she could, roaring (吼叫) all the time,
    but to her calf it was music.

    1. The moment the author got down to the river bank he saw _____.
    A. the calf was about to fall into the river
    B. Ma Shwe was placing the calf on the rock
    C. the calf was washed away by the rising water
    D. Ma Shwe was holding the calf against the rushing water
    2. How did Ma Shwe manage to save her calf from the fast flowing water?
    A. By putting it on a safe spot.
    B. By pressing it against her body.
    C. By taking it away with her.
    D. By carrying it on her back.
    3. How did the calf feel about the mother elephant's roaring?
    A. It was a great comfort.
    B. It was a sign of danger.
    C. It was a call for help.
    D. It was a musical note.
    4. What can be the best title for the text?
    A. A Mother's Love
    B. A Brave Act
    C. A Deadly River
    D. A Matter of Life and Death
