24、I’ve loved my mother’s desk since I was just tall enough to see above the top of it as mother sat doing letters. Standing by her chair, looking at the ink bottle, pens, I decided that the act of writing must be the 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 it in action. But as a young girl, I wanted 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”.

As years passed and 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.

I posted the letter and waited for her answer. None came.

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.

Now 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 (折叠) and refolded many times.

Give me an answer, my letter asks, in any way you choose, Mother, you always chose the act that speaks louder than words.

【1】The writer began to love her mother’s desk ________.

A．after Mother died

D．She read the letter again and again till she died.

【4】What’s the best title of the passage?

26、Almost all cultures celebrate the end of one year and the beginning of another in some ways. Different cultures celebrate the beginning of a new year in different ways.

Chinese New Year is an important traditional Chinese holiday. It is also traditional for every family to clean the house, in order to sweep away bad luck. Windows and doors will be decorated with red color paper-cutting. Other activities include lighting firecrackers（鞭炮） and giving money in red paper envelopes.

In western countries, people usually celebrate New Year at midnight on December 31st or January 1st. People may go to parties and they may drink champagne（香槟）at midnight. During the first minute of the New Year, people cheer and wish each other happiness for the year ahead. It is also a common western custom to make a New Year’s promise called a resolution. New Year’s resolutions usually include promises to try something new or change a bad habit in the New Year.

Other New Year traditions are followed to bring good luck in the New Year. One widespread Spanish tradition for good luck is to eat grapes on New Year’s Day. The more grapes a person eats, the more good luck the person will have in the coming new year. In France, people eat pancakes for good luck in the New Year.
