题目内容：

As I was busy working on my work plan in my bedroom, I could hear my four children playing upstairs. Suddenly, I heard the children running down the stairs and shouting, “Freddie, Freddie.” I heard the word “window” and rushed outside, heart in mouth. My three-year old son Freddie was lying on his side on the ground. I cried for my husband Simon to dial 999 and within minutes the air ambulance arrived. They quickly took him in the helicopter. During the flight, Freddie was looking at me and I remember thinking was a good sign, but then his eyes began to roll. As the doctors tried to stabilize(稳定) him, I couldn’t believe what was happening.

When we arrived at the hospital in Portsmouth, there were some doctors and nurses waiting for us and they immediately set to work on Freddie. I was hopelessly wishing everything would be alright, but Freddie had broken his skull in two places and blood clots were forming in his brain. He needed surgery(外科手术), and only a surgeon at another hospital in Bristol could do it. This meant another helicopter ride, but we couldn’t go with Freddie because there was no enough space. Simon and I drove the long 130 miles from our home in north Devon in silence. Neither of us dared say what we were thinking, “What if we get there and he’s dead?” “Is he going to be brain-damaged?”

Freddie was just coming out of surgery when we arrived. The surgeon said it had gone well. When I finally saw him, I hardly recognize my child—he was covered in tubes and there were wires coming out of his head.

On the third day, Simon went home to see our three girls and to pick up some clean clothes for us. While he was gone, the pressure in Freddie’s brain suddenly increased. He was taken into theater again and this time I fell apart. Luckily, the surgery managed to stabilize Freddie. After almost a week, Freddie was finally woken up. When he opened his eyes, he looked at me. He didn’t say anything, but I knew straight away that it was my old Freddie, and that he was going to be alright. Over the next two weeks, his recovery went well. After help with learning to swallow again and encouragement with speaking, he was soon playing with his Gruffalo cards and eating meals by himself.

I still don’t know how the accident happened, but we got some idea from our girls. Clearly Freddie and Minnie had been sitting on the window ledge, and Freddie must have opened it to look out and fallen 20 feet onto the ground below.

The guilt I feel is awful— for weeks I was full of “ if onlys”, and we put window locks everywhere. Six months later, although the accident seems a lifetime ago, it has changed me. I feel differently about life now. I’ve left my job to put my children first. I want to spend every minute with them.

最佳答案：

小题1:B

小题2:D

小题3:B

小题4:B

小题5:C

答案解析：

就在作者在自己的卧室忙于制定工作计划时，三岁的儿子出事了：从窗户摔出摔倒了地面上不省人事。在家人和医护人员的不懈努力下，孩子脱离了生命危险，逐渐康复中。通过这件事，作者深感愧疚，深感愧对孩子，最后决定辞掉工作来照看孩子，毕竟孩子比工作更重要。

小题1:B 推理判断题。从“rushed out, heart in my mouth(心提到嗓子眼儿冲了出去)”判断作者不知道出

什么事了，所以按常理应该是“很是着急”，故选B。

小题2:D推理判断题。根据第二段中“and only a surgeon at another hospital in Bristol could do it.”可以推

出第一家医院的外科医生做不了这个手术，故D正确。

小题3:B推理判断题。根据第三段中“he was covered in tubes and there were wires coming out of his head.(全身都插满管子，头上布满了导线)”说明他的头部脸部全部被覆盖了，当然认不出来啦。

小题4:B细节理解题。根据第四段中“While he(Simon) was gone, the pressure in Freddie’s brain suddenly increased(颅压突然增加)”可以推断作者的儿子“伤情突然恶化”。

小题5:C推理判断题。依据：“I’ve left my job to put my children first.”说明作者认为“孩子比工作更重要”。
