20、 serving in World War II, I dreamed of owning a piece of land. So I moved from central Illinois to Shelbina, Missouri, and bought 236 acres for $6,000. The plot of land was situated on a dirt road and was half farmland and half trees, with an old house that had no running water or electricity. Obvio

21、usly, it was not what youd call prime real estate. But it was mine.I was alone for the first time in my life, and I found it liberating. My days were filled from dawn until dusk with plowing and planting corn. Dinnertime came and went, and I barely remembered to eat.I wouldnt say I was a great succe

22、ss at farming in Missouri. However, when I went to the store to buy some plowshares, I met a nice woman named Claudette working behind the counter. I also ran into her at St. Marys Catholic Church in Shelbina each week. I found out later that her manager kept asking her about “that tall boy (and eli

23、gible bachelor) from Illinois living out in the country in an old house with no water, no electricity and no housekeeper.”Claudette and her sister soon visited my farm and put up some curtains. To show my appreciation, I took Claudette out for a ride in my 2-ton Studebaker truck. We married in 1954

24、and have now been together for more than 62 years!I later sold the Missouri farm for a $3,500 profit and bought 40 acres in Illinois. For many reasons, buying the Missouri farm was a good idea. I will always cherish memories of owning the farm and meeting my beloved.1、When the author bought the plot

27、st debut (亮相) as an Olympic sport at Paris 2024, Tony Estanguet, head of the Paris organizing committee, said on February 21st. Skateboarding, sport climbing and surfing, which have already been added to the programme for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, have been invited to return in Paris four years later

28、.Tony Estanguet said the choices responded to a need to make the Olympics “more urban” and “more artistic”. We have chosen to present the International Olympic Committee (IOC) with the four sports because they are creative, appealing to youth and completely in line with our vision. They reflect perf

29、ectly Paris 2024s identity.Breakdancing is an example of a sport “Which can be played anywhere and anytime in urban and other environment.” It appeared at the 2018 Youth Olympics in Buenos Aires in the form of head-to-head “battles”. In competitive breakdancing, “breakers” face off in “battles” agai

30、nst each other, either as individuals or teams. Breakdancers use a mix of physical and artistic skills combining elements from gymnastics or acrobatics (雜技).The IOC had announced that the number of competitors at Paris 2024 would be restricted to 10, 500, which limited the opportunity to add sports.

31、 But the organizers said the inclusion of the four sports in Paris would not necessitate the construction of permanent facilities and would involve just 248 competitors, of which 32 would he in breakdancing. The surfing events are likely to be held in established surf centres such as Biarritz or Lac

32、anau in southwest France.The inclusion still need to be rubberstamped by the IOC, which is expected to decide on which sports to add in Paris after next years Tokyo Games.1、What do we know about breakdancing?AIt involves multiple skills.BIts limited to group competition.CIt will show up in Paris 202

I didnt answer it, in part, because I am 47 years old.I almost answered your email after bedtime, which is when I have often answer

36、ed emails. My laptop was put on my bedside table. My husband sat on his side of the bed, and he leaned back and asked me if Id given any thought to whether the chickens would need to be kept away from the apple trees after he sprayed them with something to keep the bugs away.We moved on to the child

37、rens math grades, then to the way they just take their socks off and leave them, inside out, no matter where they are. I looked at the clock and saw that it was not as early as Id thought, not for a lot of things, and so we turned off the light, and I did not answer your email.Your email sat among e

38、mails from bosses and editors and orthodontists all through the next workday. My children were at school, and I had not yet managed to write 300 words nine more times. I thought about answering your email in the afternoon, while my older daughter and I waited outside the school for her sister to fin

39、ish a piano lesson. My daughter probably would not have minded. She is almost 13, and sometimes, when she sits in the house texting while I try to talk to her, I sprayed her with the bottle I keep on the counter to spray the cats when they start scratching the back of the sofa. I could have answered

40、 your email then. I admit it. We could have sat there, in peaceful silence, each staring at our phone. I had time to answer your email, and I did not.I snuggled(依偎) my youngest son at bedtime that night, because he asked. I snuggled him even though your email was calling, and some part of me wanted

41、to pull away from the tedium of bedtime and reply. Replying would have felt fresh and new, while bedtime felt old and stale. I would like to say I snuggled my son and did not give your email one single thought, but that would not be true, and it would also be rude, even though it is a state of mind

42、to which many of us aspire. Instead, I hovered(懸停) somewhere between presence in the bedtime moment and awareness of your email and many others. I spend a lot of time in that gap, sometimes drafting mental responses to emails, which I am later surprised and sad to find I have not actually sent.It is

43、 possible that I will answer your email later, in a few hours, or in a few years, maybe when I am 57, and I will be so happy to have your email. We will trade words, and those words will again seem so real to me, a whole world in my laptop, where I live, sometimes, because there is so much that is a

44、ttractive in there, where time moves fast and yet never moves at all. I will take my laptop outside and I will sit among the trees, listening for the voices of children who are no longer home, and I will answer your email.It is also possible that I will not that I, in fact, will never answer your em

45、ail. If that is the case, if the people and the places and the things around me still press upon me with more urgency than your email and so many others, I hope that you will forgive me. I have already forgiven myself.1、Why does the author mention chickens and the childrens math grades?ABecause dail

46、y routines took up most of her time.BBecause she was troubled by many unimportant things.CBecause she was more concerned about her family.DBecause she often put off answering email till bedtime.2、What can be learnt from the authors description of her daughter?AThe author used to answer emails while

47、waiting for her daughter.BThe author would rather play with her daughter than answer emails.CThe author and daughters liked to use their phone alone.DThe author regretted the time spent on the phone.3、What tone does the author use in answering emails after snuggling her son?Ahumor BembarrassmentCapo

48、logy Dhappiness4、What do the last two paragraphs mainly tell us?ALearn to forgive yourself for not answering emails in time.BThe world outside is so attractive that we should enjoy it now.CI will surely answer emails without children around.DAnswering emails is a thing of little urgency.25（10分）On Se
