“Can I see my baby?” the happy new mother asked. When the baby was lying in her arms and she moved the cloth to look upon his tiny face,she gasped (吃力地喘著 氣) . The doctor turned quickly and looked out of the hospital window. The baby had HP,been born without ears. Luckily,time proved that the baby’s hearing was perfect.
Though the misfortune (不幸) happened to him,he grew into a handsome boy. Yet he felt ashamed when he communicated with others.
“You should get in touch with other young people”’ his mother told him,with a kindness in her heart. The boy's father talked with the family doctor about his ears.
“Could nothing be done?” the father asked. “I believe I could give him a pair of outer ears,if they could be got,” the doctor replied.
Two years went by. One day,his father said to the son,You are going to the hospital,Son. Mother and I have found someone who will donate the ears you need,but it's a secret. ” The operation is a big success. Later he married and entered the diplomatic (外交的) service. One day,he asked his father ,“Who gave the ears? Who gave me so much? I could never do enough for him or her. ”
“You could,my son ,” said the father ,“but the agreement was that you are not to know... not yet. ”
The years kept their secret,but one of the darkest days did come. He stood with his father over his mother's casket (棺材) . Slowly,the father stretched forth (伸出) a hand and raised the thick,reddish brown hair to reveal the mother had no outer ears.
“Mother said she was glad she never let her hair be cut”’ his father whispered gently ,“and nobody ever thought mother less beautiful,did they?”(浙江省寧波市寧�？h長街鎮(zhèn)初級中學2013 —2014學年八年級下學 期第三次月考英語試題)

Who is the one that helps me grow up,gives me advice,takes care of me,shows me the right way,always supports me greatly,gives me a birthdate and does many many things just for me? It's my mother. I love her and really admire her for many reasons.
Perhaps,the thing makes me admire her the most is that she is the first teacher of mine. She has been teaching me everything since I was young until now,and for the future. I remember that the first foreign language I learned from her was Russian. I could speak some simple words in Russian when I was just 5 years old such as “hello”，“goodbye”. At that time,I wrote a poem about the ant and my mom. Of course,she was the first person listening to me.

I also admire her for her personality which is a mix of honesty and strong faith in god,cause and effect. “ Take us by ourselves into others’ position before doing anything ,” she said And she is also a predictor. She can know the future in her dreams. She ever told me that she had found out my father before seeing him. Besides,she was sure that I would be a boy before getting pregnant. Oh my god!It's strange. I can not do the same thing.
There is a woman who plays an important part in my life and changes my thoughts and actions. I really love my mother. I think I am the happiest person because I have a great mother like her. How do you think of vour mother?

We often ask for information or help,especially when we visit a foreign country. So knowing how to ask for information politely is important. In English ,“Where are the restrooms?” and “Could you please tell me where the restrooms are?” are correct English,but the first could sound rude. It's important to use correct language,but sometimes we need to learn how to be polite.
In English,just like in Chinese,we change the way we speak when talking with different people. If you say to your teacher ,“Where is my book?” This will sound rude. But if you say ,“Excuse me,Mr West. Do you know where my book is?^ Your question will sound much more polite. Of course it might be all right to say “Where is my book?” in some situations,perhaps with people you know well.
“Peter,give me your pen. ”can sound rude in English. Usually in English,polite questions are longer such as “Could you please. or “Can I ask. It sounds more polite to say. “Peter,could you please give me your pen?,? Sometimes we might even need to spend some time when you stop a stranger in the street. We might first say ,“Excuse me. Can you help me?” or “I'm sorry to trouble you but. .. ”before asking them for help.
It might seem that speaking politely is more difficult than being direct (直接) . However,if you want to be a polite person,you should learn about language etiquette (規(guī)矩) . It is just as important as learning grammar or vocabulary. And doing this will also help you become better at English,or any other language you wish to speak.(北京市朝陽區(qū))
() 1. What is the polite way when you ask for help?
A. Pass me the watch,Li Tao.
B. Where is the supermarket?

() 2. Why do we need to learn polite languages? Because.
A. they can improve our grammar and vocabulary
B. they can help us become better at English
C. everyone wants to be polite
D. the teachers tell us to do so
() 3. From the passage,we can infer (推測) the writer.
A. thinks being direct is nothing important
B. knows much about spoken language
C. is good at asking for directions
D. often speaks many languages
() 4. What's the main idea of the passage?
