主旨大意:本篇短文是一则寓言故事,两只掉在深洞里的青蛙,一只听说了根本出不来,一时失望掉在里面摔死了,而另一只呢?却吧别人的话语当成了鼓励与鞭策,坚持不懈地努力,最终取得了胜利,这就教育我们:同样是别人的语言,你当成鼓励可以帮助你,否则完全也可以害死你。

小题1: B 最后;终于有一个听见了,而不是幸运地或突然地。
小题1: D 听到其他青蛙的话,即了解了事实,自然就"放弃"。
小题1: B 然而,为听到的青蛙是"继续"努力。
小题1: A 上句说到它成功了,也就是从里面"出来"get out.
小题1: C 由上文的没听见也可以知道是它的"听力"hearing差。
小题1: D 考查词组teach sb a lesson"给某人以教训"。
小题1: D 和后面的discouraging相并列,所以这里是:鼓励的话语可以使人脱离困难。

When I was a foreign teacher in China,every day I taught English to my students and they taught me about China.One day the topic mined to saying “I love you”.I was shocked to learn that not one of my students had said this to their mothers,nor had their mothers said it to them.“Does your mom love you?” “Of course,”they answered.
“How do you know?” was my logical question.They responded that their moms cooked and Always told them what they were doing wrong to show their earning.I was strummed. So mom’s cooking and criticizing read our as “I love you”.”Then how do you say ‘I love you to her?” They agreed that getting good grades, followed by good jobs would be how they showed their love.
I come from a culture where most people are expressive enough,so I repeated these queries in clauses over time.Gradually,I began to get different responses.Some of them had exchanged those sentiments with their moms.
One of my favorite stories of change came from a girl.When she came home from university,her mother met her at the door and hugged(拥抱)her.This had never happened before,but her mom said,“Now that you have gone I have more time to myself.I noticed that in some places mothers and children hug each other and I decided it was a good idea and that I would begin hugging you.”
In my family we all say “I love you” a lot.While it is true that we often say the words without having great depth of feelings at that moment,it is almost like a blessing we give each other. Those three little words carry a world of meaning,even when said as a greeting, but most especially if they are the lax words we say to or hear from those we love.
小题1:The foreign teacher _________.
A.comes from AmericaB.is a young woman
C.is expressive enoughD.knows much about China
小题2:Chinese people prefer to show love by __________.
A.saying “I love you”B.cooking

A.She is meeting her daughter at the dour.
B.She loves her daughter and misses her.
C.She is glad that she has more time to herself.
D.She finds it interesting to hug her daughter.
小题4:What’s the main idea of the passage?
A.Say “I love you” more to your family.
