Of course, she wasn't really my aunt and, out of fear, I never called her that to her face. I only 21 to her as \Aunt Fannie\because it always made my father chuckle(咯咯笑) and my mother look 22 at both of us—at me for being 23 of my elder and at my father for my

24 bad behavior. I 25 both reactions so I grasped every opportunity to work the name into as many conversations as possible.

As a young woman, my mother had worked in the 26 of a large Victorian farmhouse owned by Fannie Cratty and her twin brother, Farnsworth. They represented the end of the Cratty line. Neither had married 27 had any living heirs(继承人) and my father once told me in a whisper that it was because they were both too 28 to share their family wealth. During those years my mother helped Aunt Fanny make the best blueberry jam ever 29 by anyone in Glenfield.

One year, after I had been particularly helpful with the jam process Aunt Fannie gave me a 34 and then made me promise that I would never spend it. \ 35 this quarter,\will be rich. I still have my very first quarter given by my grandfather.\ 36 for her. So I followed her advice.

I now have the blueberry jam recipe and the quarter from Aunt Fannie. In people's eye Aunt Fannie's 37 was attributed to that secret recipe. But to me, it was just a 38 recipe. However, I keep them as 39 to hold firmly the valuable things in life.

第二部分：阅读理解（第一节20小题，第二节5小题；每小题2分，满分50分）

第一节：阅读下列材料，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该选项标号涂黑。

A

I am sure we’ve all come across inspiring quotes that made us nod in agreement or made us think, “Wow, that’s good quote”. But we end up going back to procrastinating (拖延) on whatever it was we were procrastinating on. So are these inspirational quotes even worth reading? Well, that depends. Quotes, books, articles, audio programs… all of these things are just tools and they’re only effective when you use them. I don’t know about you but most quotes I read don’t do anything for me. However, every now and then, I will come across one that will positively affect me in some way such as reminding me to be grateful, getting me to work out extra hard at the gym without being pressed by my wife, or never give up when things get tough.

From my experience, reading quotes is more effective when you’re actually trying to motivate yourself rather than just reading them for the sake of reading them. The second you feel the urge to take action, you’d better immediately get up off your chair and take action.

These quotes aren’t for everyone. If you have read tons of them and have never been motivated or had a positive change in the way you look at life or how you treat others, or these quotes don’t help you to insist on doing something when you feel like giving up on it, then it’s probably not worth your time reading more of them. If you have done something a bunch of times and it’s not giving you the results you want, don’t keep doing it. Try something else.

Now if you’ve found some value in reading these quotes in the past, continue to make them more effective by letting them guide your life.

I’ll end this text with one of my favorite quotes, which reminds me to constantly examine my habits. “We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.”---- Aristotle 41. What attitude does the author have towards most quotes he has read? A. Negative B. grateful C. Doubtful D. Interested 42. What does the author’s wife expect him to do?

A. To be grateful for life. B. To exercise at the gym C. To do extra work at home D. To read more inspiring quotes
