14、I’ve loved my mother’s desk since I was just tall enough to sit above the top of it when mother sat writing letters. Standing by her chair, looking at the ink bottle, pens, and white paper, I decided that the act of writing must be the most wonderful thing in the world.
Years later, during her final illness, mother kept different things for my sister and brother. “But the desk,” she said again “ is for Elizabeth.”
I never saw her angry, never saw her cry. I knew she loved me; she showed it action. But as a young girl. I wanted to have heart-to heart talks between mother and daughter.
They never happened. And a____opened between us. I was “ too emotional(易动感情的)". But she lived “on the surface”.
As years passed and I had my own family. I loved my mother and thanked her for our happy family. I wrote to her in careful words and asked her to let me know in any way she chose that she did forgive me.
My hope turned to disappointment, then little interest and, finally, peace-it seemed that nothing happened. I couldn’t be sure that the letter had even got to mother. I only knew that I had written it, and I could stop trying to make her into someone she was not.
But the present of her desk told me, as she’d never been able to, that she was pleased that writing was my chosen work. I cleaned the desk carefully and found some papers inside-a photo of my father and a one-page letter, folded and refolded many times. It was my letter. “ In any way you choose, mother, you always chose the act that speaks louder than words”

17、There is a popular belief that goldfish only have a three-second memory. But a 15-year-old schoolboy from Adelaide has just finished an experiment to tell us that it is not true. He shows everybody that the goldfish is smarter than we think.
"I don't believe that they had a three-second memory because animals need their memory, so they build up over time a knowledge of where the food is," said Rory Stokes, a student at the Australian Science and Mathematics School.
He did the experiment in a small tank(鱼缸)of goldfish. "I decided to get a bit of red Logo and just feed them next to that. Every day I'd put it in and spread food around it." He said.
"At first they were a bit scared of it, but by the end of the three weeks, they were actually almost coming before I put the food in."
After leaving the fish alone for a week, Rory placed the red Logo block in the tank again.
"They remembered perfectly well," he said.
"They actually had a time faster than the average(平均)of the three feeds before I left."
The goldfish showed that they not only could store information, but also had the ability to get it back at a later date.
Culum Brown. a researcher at Sydney′s Macquarie University, has studied fish behavior for more than ten years.
He says his studies of Australian native fish show fish are smart animals that know how to avoid enemies and catch food like any other animal.
"The thing that I really liked about Rory′s experiment is that he not only got that classical conditioning going but the fact that he could get thorn next just to that specific coloured marker. I thought it was really good." He said.
1．Rory put a red Logo in the tank to .
A．connect food with the colour B．make the tank nicer to look at
C．feed the fish at the same place D．give the fish something to play with
2．What's the right order of Rory's experiment?
a. find a tank of goldfish b. feed the fish next to the Logo
c. leave the goldfish alone for a week d. take out the Logo
e. put a red Logo into the tank f. put the Logo back into the tank
A．adbecf B．aebdcf C．dabefc D．adebcf
3．What do the last three paragraphs tell us?
A．Fish are the cleverest animal in Australia.
B．Rory's experiment failed to meet the scientific standard.
C．Many scientists had already done the experiment before.
D．Rory's research was highly praised by experienced experts(专家).
4．What can we learn from the story?
A．Fish can become smarter with the help of red colour.
B．Scientists should learn from middle school students.
C．What everybody believes is not neceaarily true.
D．Young people are generally smarter than old ones.
