第一节(共12小题，每小题2. 5分，满分30分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
Previous studies of children have found links between use of electronic media and physical health risks. Electronic media use is also associated with social connection. However, comparatively less is known about links with academic performance.
To help clarify these links, Mundy and colleagues studied 1, 239 8-to 9-year olds in Melbourne, Australia. They used a national achievement test data to measure the children’s academic performance at baseline and again after two years. They also asked the children’s parents to report on their kids’ use of electronic media.
The researchers found that watching two or more hours of television per day at the age of8 or9was associated with lower reading performance compared to peers two years later; the difference was equal to losing four months of learning. Using a computer for more than one hour per day was linked to a similar degree of lost numeracy(计算能力). The analysis showed no links between use of videogames and academic performance.
By accounting for baseline academic performance and potentially influencing factors such as mental health difficulties and body mass index (BMI)and controlling for prior media use, the researchers were able to identify television and computer use was associated with poorer academic performance.
These findings could help parents and teachers better plans and clinical recommendations for electronic media use in late childhood. Future research could build on these results by examining continued associations in secondary school.
The authors add: “The debate about the effects of modern media on children’s learning has never been more important given the effects of today’s Covid-19 on children. This is the first large study of electronic media use and learning in primary school children, and results showed heavier users of television and computers had significant declines in reading two years later compared with light users.”
1. What is Mundy’s study mainly about?
A. Electronic media B. Acquisition approaches C. Kids’ health D. Academic performance
2. Which of the following statements may the author agree with?
A. Previous studies are inaccurate and unreliable.
B. Kids’ capacity to read declines when they apply e-books.
C. Kids playing videogames can perform as well as before academically.
D. Watching TV will have a negative impact on kids merely within two years.
3. What makes the effects of modern media on children’s learning a hot issue?
A. Challenges from public health B. Clinical recommendation on leisure
C. Parents’ concern about future D. Tight schedules at schools
4. How did the researchers make the new discovery?
A. By inferring from previous studies
B. By referring to the national achievement test data
C. By analyzing children’s mental health difficulties
D. By comparing academic performances before and after
【答案】1. D 2. C 3. A 4. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要讲述电子媒体和儿童的学习成绩之间的联系。
【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Previous studies of children have found links between use of electronic media and physical health risks. Electronic media use is also associated with social connection. However, comparatively less is known about links with academic performance.”(此前对儿童的研究发现，使用电子媒体与身体健康风险之间存在联系。电子媒体的使用也与社交联系有关。然而，相对而言，人们对学习成绩的联系知之甚少)和第二段“To help clarify these links, Mundy and colleagues studied 1, 239 8-to 9-year olds in Melbourne, Australia.”(为了帮助澄清这些联系，Mundy和同事研究了澳大利亚墨尔本的1239名8至9岁儿童)可知，Mundy和同事研究主要是要弄明白电子媒体和儿童的学习成绩之间的联系。故选D。
【2题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“The analysis showed no links between use of videogames and academic performance.”(分析显示，电子游戏的使用与学习成绩之间没有联系)可知，玩电子游戏的孩子在学业上可以表现得和以前一样好。故选C。
【3题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“The debate about the effects of modern media on children’s learning has never been more important given the effects of today’s Covid-19 on children. This is the first large study of electronic media use and learning in primary school children, and results showed heavier users of television and computers had significant declines in reading two years later compared with light users.”(考虑到当今新冠肺炎对儿童的影响，关于现代媒体对儿童学习影响的辩论从未如此重要。这是对小学生使用电子媒体和学习的第一次大规模研究，结果显示，两年后，电视和电脑的重度使用者的阅读能力比轻度使用者显著下降)可知，使现代媒体对儿童学习的影响成为热点问题的原因在于公共卫生的挑战。故选A。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“They used a national achievement test data to measure the children’s academic performance at baseline and again after two years. They also asked the children’s parents to report on their kids’ use of electronic media.”(他们使用国家成就测试数据来衡量孩子们在基线和两年后的学习成绩。他们还要求孩子的父母报告孩子使用电子媒体的情况)可知，研究者们是通过对比孩子们前后的学习成绩得出的结果。故选D。
B
George Whitmore, a member of the first team of climbers to scale El Capitan in Yosemite National Park and a conservationist who devoted his life to protecting the Sierra Nevada, has died.
His team spent 45 days fixing pitches on a course more than 3, 000 feet high. They used siege tactics (攻城术) to link camps, coming down for school and work. But then they launched a 12-day final push, which they completed on November 12, 1958. “It’s really like walking on the moon,” author and climber John Long said. “There’re certain things that are influential. Not just for climbers or surfers or astronauts, but for all mankind. And that was one of them. It revolutionized what everybody thought was possible.”
“He never mentioned what he’d done unless somebody asked,” Whitmore’s wife Nancy said. “He didn’t go around and say, Oh, I was the first person to climb The Nose of El Capitan.” But if you really asked George, his greatest accomplishment wasn’t the climb up El Capitan, Nancy said. It would be the decades he spent advocating for conservation.
Whitmore helped establish the Kaiser Wilderness — a protected area located 70 miles northeast of Fresno — in 1976. He helped bring the California Wilderness Act of 1984 into effect, adding 1. 8 million acres into the National Wilderness Preservation System. Whitmore was a part of efforts by the Sierra Club to prevent The Wait Disney Company from developing a ski resort at Mineral King in the 1960s. The project was stopped, and the site became part of Sequoia National Park.
He often weighed in on development in the area. Lawmakers about conservation learned to trust him because they knew that he would not just say something off the top of his head. And if he didn’t know, he would say, “I don’t know and I’ll find out,” Nancy said.
“He was a climber but that was secondary,” she added. “His love of the wilderness is the most important gift that he has left us.”
5. What did John Long think of Whitmore’s scaling EI Capitan?
A. It seemed unlikely at that time. B. It was dangerous to climb that high.
C. It interested surfers and astronauts. D. It inspired people to explore the moon.
6. It can be inferred that the Sierra Club is ________.
A. an administration branch B. a Walt Disney’s think bank
C a preservation society D. an outdoor ski organization
7. What does the underlined phrase “weighed in on” in Paragraph 5 mean?
A. Propose B. Approve C. Survey D. Comment
8. Which of the following can describe Whitmore EXCEPT ________.
A. Modest B. Grateful C. Ambitious D. Thoughtful
【答案】5. A 6. C 7. D 8. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇新闻报道，文章报道第一支攀登约塞米蒂国家公园酋长岩的登山队成员George Whitmore的去世和他在环境保护领域的成就。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“‘It’s really like walking on the moon,’ author and climber John Long said.(‘这真的像在月球上行走，’作家兼登山者John Long说)”可知，John Long认为Whitmore攀登酋长岩像在月球上行走，那似乎是不可能的事情。故选A项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“He helped bring the California Wilderness Act of 1984 into effect, adding 1. 8 million acres into the National Wilderness Preservation System. Whitmore was a part of efforts by the Sierra Club to prevent The Wait Disney Company from developing a ski resort at Mineral King in the 1960s.(他帮助1984年的《加州荒野法》生效，增加了1800万英亩的土地被纳入国家荒野保护系统。Whitmore是Sierra Club的一员，该在20世纪60年代试图阻止Wait Disney公司在Mineral King开发滑雪胜地)”可知，Whitmore致力于保护荒野，和Sierra Club一起阻止开发滑雪胜地的项目，由此可推知，Sierra Club是一个环保组织。故选C项。
【7题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第五段中“Lawmakers about conservation learned to trust him because they knew that he would not just say something off the top of his head. And if he didn’t know, he would say, ‘I don’t know and I’ll find out,’ Nancy said.(负责保护的立法者们开始信任他，因为他们知道他不会随口说些什么。如果他不知道，他会说，‘我不知道，我会弄清楚的，’Nancy说)”可知，负责保护的立法者信任Whitmore应是因为他的意见中肯，不会随口胡说，故划线词所在句意为“他经常对该地区的发展发表意见”，weighed in on意为“对……发表意见”。故选D项。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“He never mentioned what he’d done unless somebody asked(除非有人问起，否则他从不提起自己的成就)”和“It would be the decades he spent advocating for conservation.(而是他倡导自然资源保护的几十年)”以及第五段中“And if he didn’t know, he would say, ‘I don’t know and I’ll find out,’ Nancy said.(负责保护的立法者们开始信任他，因为他们知道他不会随口说些什么。如果他不知道，他会说，‘我不知道，我会弄清楚的，’Nancy说)”可知，Whitmore从不主动提起自己的成就，为人谦虚(modest)，是第一支攀登约塞米蒂国家公园El Capitan的登山队成员，毕生致力于保护自然资源，有雄心壮志(ambitious)，说话深思熟虑(thoughtful)。文中未体现grateful(感激的)。故选B项。
C
In Switzerland, Liu Hongjia and Liu Yuxi use a drone to capture the moment when they are filming a vlog. The couple’s beautifully edited travel vlogs are proving popular on such platforms as travel website Qyer, while their personal accounts on Sina Weibo jointly have more than 810,000 followers.

Some people watch them to learn how to take beautiful photos, while others want to find out more about popular travel destinations. Either way, what is appealing to audiences is that the personality of the presenter comes across in the vlog. It’s like watching movies. When people like a director’s style, they will follow his new work.
To embrace the growing trend for shooting short videos in China, travel website Mafengwo started to encourage its users to post vlogs about their trips in 2018, which has now become an important part of its user-generated content.
According to Zhao Qian, head of Mafengwo’s short-video content, its users have uploaded over 2 million short videos online, covering a wide range of themes, such as food, scenic areas and hotel experiences. “For a long time, tourists often shared their trips online via photos and words. However, short videos have become the new trend because they’re bright, direct and fun. It’s also an efficient way for visitors to find information about local travel experiences,” she says.
9. What’s the function of the first paragraph?
A. To summarize the whole passage. B. To arouse readers’ interest in tourism.
C. To introduce the topic of the whole passage. D. To emphasize the importance of short videos.
10. How can a travel blogger make his work attractive?
A. By demonstrating his personal style B. By following a famous director’s example.
C. By teaching people how to take good photos D. By revealing more information about tourist spots.
11. Why does Mafengwo encourage its users to upload short videos about their trips?
A. Because short videos are bright, direct and fun.
B. Because that caters to the growing popularity of short videos.
C. Because the content of short videos is mainly generated by its users.
D. Because short videos provide information about local travel experiences.
12. How does Zhao Qian feel about short travel videos?
A. Cautious. B. Appreciative. C. Concerned D. Indifferent.

The couple’s beautifully edited travel vlogs are proving popular on such platforms as travel website Qyer, while their personal accounts on Sina Weibo jointly have more than 810,000 followers.(在瑞士，刘洪佳和刘玉玺用无人机捕捉他们拍摄视频博客的瞬间。这对夫妇精心编辑的旅游视频博客在旅游网站Qyer等平台上很受欢迎，而他们在新浪微博上的个人账号加起来有81万多粉丝)”以及第二段“In this booming era of social media, more and more “media travelers” are joining their peers online in producing creative videos of their tourism experiences. And the growing popularity of short videos in China is a trend that’s also encouraging ordinary tourists to follow suit.(在这个社交媒体蓬勃发展的时代，越来越多的“媒体旅行者”加入到他们的网络同伴中，制作他们旅游经历的创意视频。而短视频在中国越来越受欢迎，这也是一种趋势，也鼓励普通游客效仿)”可推知，第一段的作用是介绍整篇文章的主题。故选C。

When people like a director’s style, they will follow his new work.(不管怎样，吸引观众的是视频日志中展现出的主持人的个性。就像看电影一样。当人们喜欢一个导演的风格时，他们会追随他的新作品)”可知，旅游博主通过展示他的个人风格来让自己的作品更有吸引力。故选A。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“To embrace the growing trend for shooting short videos in China, travel website Mafengwo started to encourage its users to post vlogs about their trips in 2018, which has now become an important part of its user-generated content.(为了迎合中国不断增长的短视频拍摄趋势，旅游网站蚂蜂窝在2018年开始鼓励用户发布关于他们旅行的视频日志，这现已成为其用户生成内容的重要组成部分)”可知，蚂蜂窝鼓励用户上传旅行短视频是因为这迎合了短视频越来越受欢迎的趋势。故选B。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“However, short videos have become the new trend because they’re bright, direct and fun. It’s also an efficient way for visitors to find information about local travel experiences(然而，短视频已经成为了新的趋势，因为它们欢快、直接和有趣。对于游客来说，这也是一种寻找当地旅游经验信息的有效方式)”可推知，赵倩欣赏旅行短视频。故选B。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者通过讲述一位女士在感恩节带着冬衣，穿过人群去捐赠的故事，来告诉我们“一个人可以创造不同”这个道理。
【33题详解】
考查时态语态和主谓一致。句意：“一个人可以创造不同”这句话是我们在教育年轻人时非常重视的格言之一——鼓励他们去做一些有意义的事情，去帮助别人，或者去梦想他们将如何改变世界。分析句子结构可知，空格处在that引导的定语从句中作谓语，该句描述的是客观事实，故时态为一般现在时态。Attach importance to sth.是固定短语，意为“重视，认为有重要性”，attach与importance为动宾关系，故此题中attach要用被动语态be+done的结构，且作主语的importance为不可数名词，故此题中be动词用is。故填is attached。
【34题详解】
考查形容词。句意：“一个人可以创造不同”这句话是我们在教育年轻人时非常重视的格言之一——鼓励他们去做一些有意义的事情，去帮助别人，或者去梦想他们将如何改变世界。分析句子结构可知，空格处应填入形容词作定语修饰something。Significance为名词，意为“重要性，意义”，其形容词变形为significant，意为“有意义的，重要的”。故填significant。
【35题详解】
考查连词。句意：“一个人可以创造不同”这句话是我们在教育年轻人时非常重视的格言之一——鼓励他们去做一些有意义的事情，去帮助别人，或者去梦想他们将如何改变世界。分析句子结构可知，空格及后面的句子作介词about的宾语，为宾语从句的结构，故应填入连词来引导宾语从句。从句为完整的主谓宾结构，结合句意，连接副词how“如何，怎样”符合题意。故填how。
【36题详解】
考查介词。句意：作为成年人，我们真的相信这个吗？分析句子结构可知，空格处应填入介词，与名词adults构成介宾结构。结合句意，介词as，意为“作为”符合题意。故填as。
【37题详解】
考查定语从句的关系词。句意：我写文章是想告诉你实际上“一个人可以做到”，因为我知道有一个人做了一个改变了我的生活和数百万人的生活的善举。根据句子结构及句意，空格前为主谓宾的句子结构，空格及后面部分也是句子结构，来修饰名词act“行为”，故为定语从句。空格处用来作谓语动词changed的主语，且指代act，故可用that/which引导限制性定语从句。故填that/which。
【38题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：大约15年前，当我开车穿过城镇时，我在听一个电台采访，听到了一个关于慷慨的励志故事。分析句子结构可知，空格处应填入非谓语动词作状语，且drive“开车”与句子主语I之间为逻辑上的主谓关系，故用现在分词表主动关系。故填driving。
【39题详解】
考查名词。句意：大约15年前，当我开车穿过城镇时，我在听一个电台采访，听到了一个关于慷慨的励志故事。提示词generous“慷慨的”为形容词，空格前的of为介词，故空格处应填入名词作其宾语。Generous的名词变形为generosity“慷慨”，且为不可数名词。故填generosity。
【40题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：一位女士带着十件冬衣穿过感恩节周末的拥挤人群，乘坐公共交通，为了在“一件温暖的外套”活动中捐赠。分析句子结构可知，had carried in为谓语，故动词donate“捐赠”为非谓语。结合句意，这位女士带着冬衣穿过拥挤的人群，是为了去捐赠衣服，故用不定式表目的。故填to donate。
【41题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意：在过去的15年里，“一件温暖的外套”已经在全国范围内激励了超过400万件外套的捐赠。分析句子结构可知，空格处在句中作谓语，根据时间状语In the past 15 years“在过去的15年里”可知，时态为现在完成时态have/has+done的结构，主语One Warm Coat为第三人称单数，助动词用has。故填has inspired。
【42题详解】
考查冠词。句意：作为全国的创始人，我感到温暖，因为我知道我们每个人都有能力在每年的秋天和冬天为成千上万人的生活带来真正的改变。Make a difference为固定短语，意为“有影响，创造不同”。故填a。
第三节 单句语法填空(共15小题;每小题0. 5分，满分7. 5分)
43. The fire, which is thought to ________ (start) from the 8th floor, spread quickly through the tower block on Sunday night, leaving people on the upper floors trapped. （所给词的适当形式填空）
【答案】have started
【解析】
【详解】考查动词不定式的完成式。句意：大火被认为是从8楼开始的，周日晚上迅速蔓延到整个大楼，导致楼上的人被困。be thought to do sth被认为做某事，“start”发生在谓语动词“is thought”之前，用动词不定式的完成式 to have done，故填have started。
44. The fire has also left dozens of people injured, 5 of ________ are in a critical condition. (用适当的词填空)
【答案】whom
【解析】
【详解】考查非限制性定语从句。句意：大火还造成数十人受伤，其中5人伤势严重。句子分析可知“5 of ___ are in a critical condition”为非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词dozens of people injured，指人，关系词将先行词代入定语从句中作介词of的宾语，所以用关系代词whom。故填whom。
45. Fears grew ________ the number of death could reach 5, according to figures released by emergency services. （用适当的词填空）
【答案】that
【解析】
【详解】考查同位语从句。句意：根据紧急服务部门发布的数据，人们越来越担心死亡人数可能会达到5人。分析可知， 　　　 the number of death could reach 5在句中为同位语从句，解释名词fear，空处后面的句子结构完整，成分齐全，所以空处用从属连词that连接，不能省略。故填that。
46. By that time, the fire ________ (extend) to the 15th floor. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】had extended
【解析】
【详解】考查时态。句意：那时，大火已经蔓延到15楼。根据时间状语By that time可知，用过去完成时态。根据句意，故填had extended。
47. Therefore, checking different sources enables us ________ (draw)a more informed conclusion. （所给词的适当形式填空）
【答案】to draw
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：因此，检查不同的资料来源能使我们得出更有根据的结论。enable sb. to do sth.意为“使某人能够做某事”，故空处应用to do不定式加动词原形。故填to draw。
48. As media channels have grown in number and type, so ________ advertisements. （用适当的词填空）
【答案】have
【解析】
【详解】考查倒装。句意：随着媒体渠道在数量和类型上的增长，广告也在增长。当so位于句首时，表示“也”，可将其后与前面重复的谓语部分置于主语之前，构成部分倒装。结合上文As media channels have grown in number and type可知为现在完成时，应用助动词have。故填have。
49. Slogans use simple but ________ (impress) language to make us remember the product or service being advertised. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】impressive
【解析】
【详解】考查形容词。句意：标语使用简单但令人印象深刻的语言让我们记住广告中的产品或服务。形容词impressive作定语，修饰名词language，意为“给人印象深刻的”。故填impressive。
50. In the future, advertising will be even more about understanding individual customers and sending them advertisements that are tailored ________ specific needs. （用适当的词填空）
【答案】to
【解析】
【详解】考查介词。句意：在未来，广告将更多地理解个体客户，并向他们发送针对特定需求的广告。be tailored to “为……量身定制”是固定搭配。故填to。
51. It was a Frenchman, Pierre de Coubertin,________ brought the Olympics back to life.（用适当的词填空）
【答案】who##that
【解析】
【详解】
考查强调句。句意：是法国人皮埃尔·德·顾拜旦使奥运会恢复生机。 本空后引导句子，去掉It was和空处，句子成分仍然完整，可判断是强调句，it is +被强调部分+that+其余部分，当强调是人时可以用who或that，故填：who或that。
52. ________ (motivate)by the original Olympic motto “Faster, Higher, Stronger”, many well-known athletes, both male and female, have devoted themselves to achieving sporting excellence. （所给词的适当形式填空）
【答案】Motivated
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：受最初奥林匹克格言“更快，更高，更强”的激励，许多著名的男女运动员都致力于取得卓越的运动成就。分析句子可知，have devoted是谓语动词，空处应用非谓语动词，主语athletes和motivate是被动关系，用过去分词作状语，故填Motivated。
53. ________ it suggests, in baseball this means that a batter is out after making three unsuccessful attempts to hit the ball. （用适当的词填空）
【答案】As
【解析】
【详解】考查非限制性定语从句。句意：正如它所暗示的，在棒球中这意味着击球手在三次击球失败后出局。设空处引导非限制性定语从句指代后文的整个主句，在从句中作宾语，所以用as，因为置于句首，开头字母大写，故填As。
54. Over the course of my career, I ________ (see)many wonderful scientific developments. （所给词的适当形式填空）
【答案】have seen
【解析】
【详解】考查时态和主谓一致。句意：在我的职业生涯中，我看到过许多精彩的科学发展。分析句子可知，此处为谓语动词；根据时间状语“Over the course of my career”可知用现在完成时；主语是“I”，助动词用have。故答案为：have seen 。
55. A boxer is not allowed ________ (use) his or her fists to hit the opponent below the waist. （所给词的适当形式填空）
【答案】to use
【解析】
【详解】考查固定搭配。句意：拳击手不允许用拳头击打对手的腰部以下。固定搭配sb. be allowed to do sth.，意为“某人被允许做某事”，不定式作补足语。故填to use。
56. Up to now, more than 360 acupuncture points ________ (identify), each linked to a different part of the body. （所给词的适当形式填空）
【答案】have been identified
【解析】
【详解】考查现在完成时的被动语态。句意：到目前为止，已经确定了360多个穴位，每个穴位都与身体的不同部位相连。空处在句中为谓语，结合句中时间状语up to now（到现在为止），可知空处的时态为现在完成时；句子主more than 360 acupuncture points为复数含义，与动词identify为动宾关系，所以空处用现在完成时的被动语态，故填have been identified。
57. Ultimately, this new technology might even make ________ possible to prevent diseases from ever developing by correcting abnormal genes early on.（用适当的词填空）
【答案】it
【解析】

第二节(满分25分)
59. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整短文。
As a five-year-old, I didn’t know how poor we were. We had just moved to Manhattan and knew no one in that city. My father would not be home that Christmas Eve; he was in the Army serving overseas. My mother, in her 20s, and I worked all afternoon making tree decorations. The kitchen table was crowded with stars, globes, and animals made of shiny paper.
There was at least a dozen feet of a chain made of colored paper loops. We were going to get the Christmas tree later in the evening, when the prices for them usually dropped.
Just after sunset, we bundled up against the chilly Manhattan night and walked four blocks to a parking lot where they sold Christmas trees.
“How much is your cheapest tree?” my mother asked the man standing at the lot entrance.
He held his gloved hands over the fire in a steel barrel. His brown skin glowed in the flickering. “Thirty dollars, Miss.”
Her smile disappeared. “Nothing for less?”
The man picked up a small tree branch and dropped it into the fire. “I just work here, Miss. I can’t change the price.”
The sudden sadness in my mother’s face made me depressed.
The man looked down at me for what felt like a long time; it probably was only moments. He pointed at a mound (堆) of branches, the size of a car, in the corner of the lot. “See that pile of cuttings? Behind it is a tree that we can’t sell, almost a trunk left. You can have it for free.”
“Thank you,” my mother said. She tapped my shoulder.
“Thank you, sir,” I said.
注意：(1)续写词数应为150左右;
(2)开头已给出。
Paragraph 1:
We hurried to the back of the mound.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
She was smiling again. “Go to sleep now. Santa will decorate the tree for us.”
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
We hurried to the back of the mound. There it was, a scrawny thing just a little taller than me, leaning against the wire fence. It had few branches. My mother shouted to the man, “Can we take some of these branches, also?” He waved his arm. “Take it all if you want to, miss.” I hauled the tree, and she carried a bundle of branches. We set the tree in the corner of the living room, away from the radiator I couldn’t imagine how we could hang many decorations on a sparse tree.
She was smiling again. “Go to sleep now. Santa will decorate the tree for us.” I woke at dawn and rushed into the living room. To my amazement, the tree had filled out. I couldn’t even see the trunk anymore. And it had a beautiful natural shape. The decorations glistened in the morning light. The chain of colored paper draped gracefully around the tree. Turning around and noticing mother’s red, staring eyes, I realized who did all this. Since then, I have seen many wonderful holidays. But that Christmas remains my favorite.
