(2018·江西赣州市高三年级摸底考式)

When I saw my 10－year－old avoiding the dirty plate in the sink or my 8－year－old feeling uncomfortable about the wet sand in her hands, I’m reminded of a time when I was unwilling to get my hands a little dirty.

My parents owned a 500－acre farm in Montana to raise animals, such as cows, sheep, horses and so on.It was during the time of new life (a newborn lamb or a calf) that my favorite childhood memory took place.One exceptionally cold day, I was checking on the sheep with my mother when she spied a ewe(母羊) in trouble.The poor thing was trying to deliver her baby lamb and needed our help.My mother calmly held the ewe’s head and instructed me to grab hold of the two protruding(突出) legs.

I hesitated, and must have had quite a look of panic on my young face.The slimy little things were definitely not something I wanted to touch.But I worked up my courage and wrapped my fingers around them.I can still recall the feel of unexpectedly weak legs and their sharp little hooves as if it happened yesterday.

My heart pounded in fear and excitement as I pulled with all my strength.The lamb was delivered safely, and I’d never seen anything so beautiful.

I was no stranger to seeing farm animals being born，but to have a hand in it was something I treasured then and will treasure forever.I remember feeling excited with delight to see “my lamb” being licked clean by her mother，and I’m sure

everyone got very tired of hearing me tell and retell my heroic story.Looking back, I’m so glad that I didn’t refuse to get my hands dirty.If I had, the wonderful moment and the precious memory would have been lost.

【语篇导读】 本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。看到“我”的孩子们不愿意碰触脏东西，“我”回忆起了小时候帮助母羊接生的珍贵往事。文章旨在告诉读者：不要怕弄脏手，否则就会失去美好的时刻和珍贵的回忆。

答案 C [细节理解题。根据第二段内容可知，作者在童年时期最难忘的事情是帮母羊接生小羊羔。故C项正确。]

5.How did the author feel when she was asked to help a ewe deliver her baby? A.Some sympathy. C.Quite astonished.

B.Rather frightened. D.Highly delighted.

答案 B [细节理解题。根据第三段第一句可知，当母亲要求作者帮母羊接生时，作者感到非常害怕。故B项正确。]

6.What point does the author try to make in the last para－graph? A.It is not unusual to see a new life coming into the world. B.It is not easy to make up and tell a heroic story in daily life. C.Memories formed during childhood are worth valuing all life long. D.You need to get your hands dirty to experience something precious.
