二、阅读理解
A
On
Christmas
Eve,
1944,
my
grandmother
urged
my
uncle,
then
12
years
old,
to
slip
out
of
the
concentration
camp
where
they
were
imprisoned
near
15
miles
east
of
Vienna
to
go
to
Deutsch-
Wagram.
“People
are
charitable
around
Christmastime,”
Grandma
Lili
said
to her
son, Gyuri. “Ask for some food. Anything they can
spare. Tell them that
we’re on the edge
of starvation. Tell them that your
3
-year-old sister can not get
off the bed because she’s outgrown her
shoes.”
In the dark of that
night, Gyuri secretly left the camp and walked
nearly four
miles to Deutsch-Wagram,
the closest town. He happened upon a house and
knocked on
the front door. A woman
opened that door. She was probably alone, her man
far away,
fighting
in
the
war,
her
children
asleep
in
their
beds.
The
12-year-old
pieced
together
3
in German exactly what his
mother had told him to say.
“Come
back
tomorrow,
whispered
the
woman.
The
next
day,
my
uncle
returned.
The
woman opened the door
with a smile. She piled his hands with bread,
clothing, a pair
of shoes that her
child had outgrown and a pair of socks. The woman
had knitted warm
socks
for
my
mother.
After
putting
on
the
socks
and
shoes
that
fit,
my
mother
got
off
the bed in delight. Her ragged shoes
were passed on to a younger child who was also
living
in
the
camp.
They
shared
their
unexpected
harvest
with
the
entire
camp.
It
was
a quiet celebration of
human kindness around Christmastime.
In
April
1945,
my
mother,
uncle
and
grandmother
were
liberated.
And
it
was
those
very
socks and shoes that my mother wore as
she walked some 28 miles over two days to
Bratislava on her walk to a new life.
To the unknown giver, I thank you. In
the desperation of a cold and snowy land,
when
many
hearts
were
closed
and
death
was
more
likely
than
life,
especially
for
Jews,
you gave them hope and
comfort.
did Gyuri manage to do on
Christmas Eve?
A. Get permitted to go
out.
B. Receive
food
and clothing.
C. Express
what his family needed.
D.
Celebrate
Christmas
in
the
camp
does the author mention shoes so many
times?
A. To prove the truth of the
story.
B. To help the development of
the story.
C.
To attract
readers’ attention to the story.
D. To make clear the background of the
story.
feeling did the author write
the text with?
A. Desperation B.
Gratefulness.
C. Excitement
D. Sorrow.
is the passage
mainly about?
A. Light in darkness
B. Peace to common people
D. The influence of Christmas
C. Courage in face of
danger
