They always tell me I should do this, and should not do that. It sometimes makes me angry," said Wang Li, a middle school student in Guangzhou. Do you have the same problem? Perhaps your parents had the same problem when they were your age long ago. Why does it seem that some parents are not so friendly in their children's eyes?One of the most important reasons is when some one becomes a parent, he/she likes worrying things. They worry about everything about you, from the time you were born. They do a lot for you, though something would make you angry, because they care about you and worry about you. They worry about your choice of friends, the food you eat, your work at school, how much sleep you get and so on. All these things are part of your life. They want you to grow up healthily and happily.So how can you make things easier on yourself? It's easier than you think. Just make sure your parents know what you're doing. Get them to know your friends. Phone them if you get home later than usual. Say sorry to them when you make mistakes. Talk about your ideas with them. They may talk about theirs with you.Most of all, try to think about why your parents do this or do that. They are still practicing being parents and need help you can give them. When you become a parent, they may be able to help you know how to get on with your children.26．The writer of the passage doesn't agree that ______.  A．parents want their children to grow up healthilyB．parents don't want their children to make some bad friendsC．parents worry about everything about their childrenD．parents want to control their children27．Some of the children are angry with their parents in the passage because ______.  A．the parents think they eat too muchB．the parents don't like the friends that their children have madeC．the children don't live with their parentsD．the children are limited by their parents28．"They are still practicing being parents" means "______".

A small woman stood before me. She was more than eighty years old. By her side was a big bag. When we got into the taxi, she gave me an address and then asked, "Could you drive through downtown?""It's not the shortest way," I answered quickly."Oh, I'm in no hurry," she said."I'm on my way to a hospice（临终关怀医院）. I don't have any family left. The doctor says I don't have very long."I quietly reached over and shut off the meter（计程表）. For the next two hours, I drove through the city. She showed me the building where she had once worked, the neighborhood where she had lived, and the place where she had gone dancing as a girl.Sometimes she'd ask me to slow down in front of a special building and would sit staring into the darkness, saying nothing.We drove in silence to the address she had given me."How much do I pay you?" she asked."Nothing," I said."You have to make a living," she answered."Oh, there are other passengers," I answered.Almost without thinking, I gave her a hug. She held on me and said, "You gave an old woman a moment of joy."46．When did the driver go to pick up the woman?47．How old was the woman?48．Where did the woman want to go?49．How much did the woman pay the driver?50．What can we learn from the driver?六、书面表达（本题15分）51．假设当"神州十三号"航天员进驻空间站时，你的家人正在进行下面提示中的活动，请用过去进行时态对当时的情景进行描述，可适当发挥。语句须通顺；词数80左右。提示：1）你在做作业，弟弟在玩玩具；2）爷爷、奶奶在聊天；3）爸爸在楼下遛狗，妈妈在厨房做饭。提示词：Shenzhou-13 spacecraft（神州十三号飞船），astronauts（宇航员），space station（空间站）
