As is known to us all, it is important to be honest with children. But there are some things in this world that simply aren’t 31 . Sometimes it makes sense for parents to 32 to their children.

I still remember my three-year-old daughter’s face when we watched the 33 that twenty children at Sandy Hook Elementary School had been killed. After a few minutes she 34 and put her 35 arms around my legs and said, “I love you, Momma” I was still 36 whether or not to turn off the TV when she, 37, asked, “Momma, why aren’t those kids ok?” After thinking for a little while, I just 38 that they were smart children, 39 they did something wrong and got punished.

We are not all 40 for a little lie here and there. Santa Clause, the Easter Bunny and Snow White are just a few examples of 41 for parents to keep magic in the world. Magic , imagination and creativity are very essential(必要的) in life, 42 for children. These stories battle against the negative(负面的)aspects of the world and create 43 . In the end children will be able to 44 what is true and what was made to 45 their lives. Take my own experience for example. I have five brothers and a sister and I can happily report that no one of the children I grew up with was 46 when we discovered who all those 47 people really were.

Actually in our life, a parent is the 48 of knowledge, and it is up to the parent to decide what knowledge to teach and when to teach. There is no 49 to tell children all about the truth. As they become 50 , they will have a better understanding of the world.

第三部分：阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）

阅读下列短文，从每篇短文后所给各题的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

My three-year-old granddaughter, Tegan, went with her parents to a family gathering at the home of her other grandparents. Everyone was having a wonderful time visiting and catching up on all the latest family news.

Like most children, Tegan was having a good time playing with all the toys that were different from her own and that were kept for children to play with at her grandparents’ house. In particular, Tegan had found a little tea set and had begun pretending that she was having a tea party. She set up all the place settings and arranged her table with the great care and elegance (优雅) that only a three-year-old can create. Meanwhile, her Daddy was engrossed in conversation, and as he continued to chat with his family, Tegan would hand him a cup of "tea". Her Daddy, who always tries to participate in her games, would pause for a few seconds from his conversation, and say all the proper words and gestures for her tea party which would thrill Tegan. He would request two lumps of sugar. He would tell her how wonderful her tea tasted, and then he would continue his adult conversation with his family.

After going through this routine several times, her Daddy suddenly awoke to reality as he had a flash of concern in his mind: "She is only three years old, where is she getting this ‘tea’ that I've been dutifully drinking?" He quietly followed her without her knowing, and his fears were growing stronger as he saw her turn and go through the bathroom door. Sure enough, there she was stretching up on her tippy toes reaching up to get her ‘tea’ water -- out of the container(容器) of water that grandpa used to soak his false teeth!

51．At the family gathering, the adults __________.

A．watched their favorite TV programs

B．arranged tables for children’s games

C．got tired of. D．was puzzled at.

53．What can be learned from the text ?

A．Tegan was unhappy to be left alone at the gathering.

B．Tegan refused to apologize for what she had done.

C．Tegan’s father often played with her in games.

D．Tegan’s father cared nothing about what she was doing.

54．Tegan’s Dad followed her secretly to find out __________.

A．whether there was any tea left

B．what kind of tea he had drunk

C．where she got the sugar for tea

D．how she made tea so wonderful 

B

The elephant was lying heavily on its side, fast asleep. A few dogs started barking at it. The elephant woke up in a terrible anger: it chased the dogs into the village where they ran for safety. That didn't stop the elephant. It destroyed a dozen houses and injured several people. The villagers were scared and angry. Then someone suggested calling Parbati, the elephant princess.

Parbati Barua’s father was a hunter of tigers and an elephant tamer（驯兽者）. He taught Parbati to ride an elephant before she could even walk. He also taught her the dangerous art of the elephant round-up -- how to catch wild elephants.

Parbati hasn’t always lived in the jungle. After a happy childhood hunting with her father, she was sent to boarding school in the city. But Parbati never got used to being there and many years later she went back to her old life. “Life in the city is too dull. Catching elephants is an adventure and the excitement lasts for days after the chase,” she says.

But Parbati doesn’t catch elephants just for fun. “My work,” she says, “is to rescue man from the elephants, and to keep the elephants safe from man.” And this is exactly what Parbati has been doing for many years. Increasingly, the Indian elephant is angry: for many years, illegal hunters have attacked it and its home in the jungle has been reduced to small pieces of land. It is now fighting back. Whenever wild elephants enter a tea garden or a village, Parbati is called to guide the animals back to the jungle before they can kill.

The work of an elephant tamer also involves love and devotion. A good elephant tamer will spend hours a day singing love songs to a newly captured elephant. “Eventually they grow to love their tamers and never forget them. They are also more loyal than humans,” she said, as she climbed up one of her elephants and sat on the giant, happy animal. An elephant princess indeed!

55. For Parbati, catching elephants is mainly to
