We arrived in the summer, just in time to enjoy the midnight sun. All that sunlight was fantastic for Mom"s vegetable garden. Working in the garden at midnight tended to throw her timing off, so she didn"t care much about my bedtime.
Dad was a Railway Express agent and Mom was his clerk. That left me in a mess. I usually managed to find some trouble to get into. Once I had a little Are going in the dirt basement of a hotel. I had tried to light a barrel(桶) of paint but couldn"t really get a good fire going. The smoke got pretty bad, though, and when 1 made my exit, a crowd and the police were there to greet me. The policemen took my matches and drove me
Mom and Dad were occupied in the garden and Dad told the police to keep me, and they did! I had a tour of the prison before Mom rescued me. 1 hadn"t turned 5 yet.
As I entered kindergarten, the serious cold began to set in. Would it surprise you to know that I soon left part of my tongue on a metal handrail at school?
As for Leonhard Seppala, famous as a dog sledder (驾雪橇者), I think I knew him well because I was taken for a ride with his white dog team one Sunday. At the time I didn"t realize what a superstar he was, but I do remember the ride well. I was wrapped (包裹) heavily and well sheltered from the freezing and blowing weather.
In 1950, we moved back to Coeur d"Alene, but we got one more Alaskan adventure when Leonhard invited us eight years later by paying a visit to Idaho to attend a gathering of former neighbors of Alaska.

B.His parents didn"t love him. |
C.His parents used to be very busy. |
D.His mother didn"t have any jobs. |

解析
试题分析: 本文是一篇记叙文,在文章中作者回忆了自己童年时候发生的一件件的事情,基本都是作者惹得乱子。那时父亲在铁路部门工作,母亲则是父亲手下的一名职员,他们工作忙碌而无瑕顾及作者以至于他有一次点燃了一桶油漆,差点引起火灾,闯下大祸。此外,在文中作者还提到了自己第一次做雪橇的美好回忆。
小题1:C考查推理判断。根据文章第二段Working in the garden at midnight tended to throw her timing off,和第三段内容Dad was a Railway Express agent and Mom was his clerk. That left me in a mess. 可知在铁路部门工作的父母忙于工作无瑕顾及作者,由此判断作者的父母非常忙碌,选C。
小题2:D考查细节理解。在文章第三段和第四段作者讲述了自己小时候玩火差点酿成火灾的事情,然后在第四段末尾提到1 hadn"t turned 5 yet.当时我还不到5岁,由此可知当作者四岁的时候他的淘气险些酿成火灾,正确答案为D。
小题3:A考查细节理解。从文章末段内容可知作者后来搬家了,故 B选项内容错误,而C选项中作者提到Leonhard1950年以后还经常去他家,内容与文章末段提示的信息矛盾,故排除。根据文章第四段As for Leonhard Seppala, famous as a dog sledder和but I do remember the ride well.可知Leonhard Seppala以驾雪橇的高超技术而著名,而且作者第一次的乘坐雪橇也是非常愉快的,故D选项错误,答案选A。
小题4:A考查主旨大意。文章开头提出自己在四岁的时候,一家人搬到了阿拉斯加,在那里他的冒险生活就开始了,然后在下文中作者回忆了在那里发生的的事情,由此可知本文主要讲述了作者小时候的事情,是作者对童年的回忆,选A。

Izzy, who has been given a bravery award by her school, said: "I just kicked him really hard. My mum taught me CPR but I knew I wasn"t strong enough to use hands. I was quite scared.

For almost four years, my mother would call us from Brazil every day. Every evening I’d wait for the phone to ring and then tell her every detail of my day. A phone call, however, could never replace her and it was difficult not to feel lonely at times.
During my fourth-grade Christmas break, we flew to Rio to visit her. Looking at her large apartment, I became how lonely my mother must have been in Brazil herself. It was then I started to appreciate the tough choices she had to make on family and work. difficult decisions, she used to tell me, you wouldn’t know whether you make the right choice, but you could always make the best out of the situation, with passion and a attitude.
Back home , I myself that what my mother could do, I could, too. If she to live in Rio all by herself, I, too, could learn to be . I learn how to take care of myself and set high but achievable .
My mother is now back with us. But I will never forget what the has really taught me. Sacrifices in the end. The separation between us has proved to be for me.

My father had just reired……….. His job filled his day, his thought, his life. While he woke up and took a warm shower, I screamed under a freezing waterfall Peru. While he tied a tie and put on the same Swiss watch, I rowed a boat across Lake of the Ozarks.

“ What is our first stop?” asks my father.
“What time is it?”
“Still don’t have a watch?”
Less than an hour away is Mount Rushmore. As he stares up at the four Presidents carved in granite(), his mouth and eyes open slowly, like those of little boy.
“Unbelievable,” he says, “How was this done?”
A film in the information center shows sculptor Gutzon Borglum devoted 14 years to the sculpture and then left the final touches to his son.

“Did you ever travel with your dad? I ask.
“Only once,” he says. “ I never spoke much with my father. We loved each other---but never said it. Whatever he could give me, he gave.”>
The kast sebtebce----it’s probably the same thing I’s say about my father. And what I’d want my child to say about me.

In an effort to prevent language loss, scholars from a number of organizations- UNESCO and National Geographic among them –have for many years been documenting dying languages and the cultures they reflect.
Mark Turin, a scientist at the Macmillan Center, Yale University, who specializes in the languages and oral traditions of the Himalayas, is following in that tradition. His recently published book, A Grammar of Thangmi with an Ethnolinguistic Introduction to the Speakers and Their Culture, grows out of his experience living, looking and raising a family in a village in Nepal.
Documenting the Tangmi language and culture is just a starting point for Turin, who seeks to include other languages and oral traditions across the Himalayans reaches of India, Nepal, Bhutan, and China. But he is not content to simply record these voices before they disappear without record.
At the University of Cambridge Turin discovered a wealth of important materials- including photographs, films, tap recordings, and field notes- which had remained unstudied and were badly in need of care and protection.
Now, through the two organizations that he has founded-the Digital Himalaya Project and the World Oral Literature Project- Turin has started a campaign to make such documents, found in libraries and stores around the world, available not just to scholars but to the youngers.
Generations of communities from whom the materials were originally collected.Thanks to digital technology and the widely available Internet. Turin notes,the endangered languages can be saved and reconnected with speech communities.

C.Telling stories about language users |
D.Linking with the native speakers |

B.The documents available at Yale. |
C.His language research in Britain. |
D.His personal experience in Nepal. |
A.Write sell and donate. |
B.Record,repeat and reward. |
C.Collect,protect and reconnect. |
D.Design, experiment and report. |
