2．阅读理解
    When you enter my home for the first time, you will always be impressed with a small and white envelope（信封）. No name, no address. It has hung on our Christmas tree for about 10 years.
    It all began because my husband Mike hated Christmas. He didn't hate the true meaning of Christmas, but the commercial（商业的） way of it, spending too much on the usual Christmas gifts, such as rushing into a store to buy a tie for Uncle Harry.
    Knowing he felt this way, I decided not to buy the usual gifts, such as shirts and sweaters. I reached for something special for Mike. The idea came in an unusual way.
    Our son Kevin, 12, was wrestling（摔跤） at the school. Before Christmas there was a match against a team helped by a city church, mostly poor kids. As the match began, I was surprised to see the other team wrestling only wearing the old clothes because they couldn't afford the wrestling uniforms, while our boys in their blue and gold uniforms. Of course, we ended up with beating them.
    Mike, seated beside me, shook his head sadly," I wish just one of them could have won. In fact, they could if they had worn the uniforms. They have talent for wrestling, but losing like this could take the heart right out of them."
    Mike loved kids-all kids and he knew them, having trained kids football and baseball. At that time, I thought of the idea for the gift.
    That afternoon, I went to a store and bought some wrestling uniforms and sent them to the city church for the kids without leaving my name.
    On Christmas Eve, I put the envelope on the tree, the note inside telling Mike what I had done and telling him that this was his gift from me. His smile was the greatest thing about Christmas that year and the next years.
    You see, we lost Mike now. But every Christmas Eve I would put an envelope on the tree, and in the morning, three more joined it. Each of our children had secretly put an envelope on the tree for their dad.
    Mike's spirit, like the Christmas spirit, will always be with us.

A. disliked receiving the same gifts every year

（3）The sentence underlined in Paragraph 5 means            .
A. they didn't have talent because they lost the match
B. they wouldn't accept the result because of the old clothes
C. they might lose heart after they were badly beaten in this way
D. they tried to cheer themselves up even if they failed in the match
（4）It can be learnt from the passage that          .
A. the writer sends gifts to children every Christmas
B. the children now prefer new toys to the envelope
C. the white envelope was a gift from the poor kids
D. Mike's spirit will have a strong influence on his children forever
【答案】 （1）D
