Garrison had been treasuring his last piece. All he had left now was a sheet of the beautiful brown paper Pa had brought back from his last sailing trip. \
Garrison handed over his sketch. Pa studied it, then looked at his son. \Garrison nodded, hoping Pa wouldn't say that he was too old to be fooling around with pencils and paper.
\asked me to let him plant the corn.\
Garrison's throat （嗓子） tightened. \know I'm not like either of you.\Pa looked at the drawing again.
\you are like both of us. You work hard, like Thomas. And you're like me, too. I have wandering feet, but you have a wandering mind. We need to see things differently. Garrison frowned. \
Pa patted his hand. \to bring us food. And my love for the sea makes good money. But there's more in life than food and money. There's happiness, for one. Does it make you happy to draw?\ Garrison nodded.
\piece of paper. Some might say drawing's a waste of time, but they don't understand how things are. Why, asking you to stop drawing like asking Thomas to stop farming, or me to stop going to sea. It would be like asking us to stop breathing, wouldn't it?\
Garrison considered this, then replied, \more, it would be… like someone took away my voice.\hear Thomas laughing, \
But Pa patted his shoulder and said, \Garrison, whether it's out loud or on paper. And speaking of paper…\my bag.\

【解析】【分析】主要讲了Garrison的爸爸送给Garrison一本素描书，让他继续绘画。 （1）细节题。根据\I was ten, I wanted to work on my father's ship,\Pa said, \Thomas was ten, he asked me to let him plant the corn.\可知爸爸说自己10岁时在爷爷船上工作，Thomas10岁时学习种植玉米，所以他认为爸爸会阻止他绘画，故选D。
（2）细节题。根据前文可知Garrison害怕爸爸不让他继续绘画，所以是担心的，故选B。 （3）推断题。根据Garrison reached into the bag and found a sketchbook. For a moment he was speechless happiness seemed to fill his body and stick in his throat.

2．阅读短文，判断正误。
People send birthday greetings by using cards in both eastern and western countries. It is not known when and where exactly the tradition of sending birthday cards began. It is believed that it began in England in the early nineteenth century. In those days people sent birthday cards when they couldn't wish somebody a happy birthday in person.
In 1840 the first stamp was used in Britain and sending birthday cards became easier, cheaper and more popular. The development of color printing processes （工艺流程） in the 1930s also helped to increase sales of birthday cards.
Today cards are often given with a present, even when people can express their wishes face to face. In recent times e-cards have also become popular. Many people are starting to use e-cards instead of traditional cards because they are free, environmentally friendly and easy to arrive. So will e-cards take place of paper cards completely in ten or twenty years? Probably not. For example, for kids and old people, they don't use e-cads very often.
If our birthday is coming soon, do you wish that at least one person could congratulate you with a beautiful card then?

One day, a man saw an old lady sitting inside her car at the side of the road. Though it was dark, he could see she needed help. So he stopped his car and walked towards her. The old lady was worried, even though she noticed the smile on his face. Was he going to hurt her? \start your car, madam. By the way, my name is Bryan Anderson, \
While Anderson was fitting a spare tired （备胎） to her car, the lady began to talk to him. She thanked him much for coming to help.
Anderson just smiled as he put his tools away. The lady asked how much she should pay him. He told her that if she really wanted to pay him back, the next time she saw someone who needed help, she could give them the help they needed. He waited until she started her car and drove off.
A few miles down the road, the lady saw a small restaurant. She went in and a waitress came over with a sweet smile. The old lady noticed the waitress was nearly eight months pregnant （怀孕的）, but she never let the pains and aches change her smile when she served her. The lady finished her meal and paid with a hundred-dollar bill. The waitress quickly went to get change, but the old lady was gone when the waitress came back. The waitress wondered where the lady could be. Then she found there was a note on the napkin （餐巾）, \give me anything back. Somebody once helped me out the way I'm helping you. If you really want to pay me back, here is what you do—do not let this chain （链子） of love end with you.\ Under the napkin were four more $100 bills.
（1）Why did Anderson tell his name to the old lady? A. Because he wanted to check if the lady knew him.
