民勤一中2017—2018学年度第一学期期末试卷 高 二 英 语 （总分：120分 时间：100分钟） 一、阅读理解。（30分） A I have never taken cooking classes in my life. I learned cooking from my mother because she was really interested in teaching me how to cook. The main reason for this was that when my mother got married，she didn't know how to cook anything，not even an egg. My grandmother never allowed her to stay in the kitchen when she was cooking. My mother did not start to cook until she was 25 years old. After she got married，she had to cook for herself and my father. One morning，she cooked two eggs for my father，but she didn't make them cooked. My father had to go to work with an empty stomach. My mother felt very sorry for my father and she decided to learn to cook from then on. In the beginning，it was very hard for her. Therefore，she had to take cooking classes to prepare the meals. After having that experience，she decided to teach me how to cook because she didn't want me to have the same experience. I remember when I was seven years old，and my mother was cooking，I was with her in the kitchen enjoying cooking. I always helped her. Nowadays，I don't need help to cook a meal. I can cook for myself alone or for a group of people；it doesn't matter. All has been done because of my mother. I will do the same with my children when they are young because I don't want them to have the same experience as my mother. If one day I am not with them，I want to be sure that they can carry on their lives without me. 1．Why couldn't the author's mother cook before she got married?

The advisor followed the king everywhere and his favorite piece of advice to the king was “Everything happens for the good.” One day the king went hunting and had a small accident. His foot was injured. Fortunately he was not badly injured but as always he was forced to ask his advisor what he thought about the accident, to which the advisor replied, “Everything happens for the good.” This time the king was really angry and put his advisor in prison. The king then asked his advisor, “Now, what do you think?” The advisor again answered, “Everything happens for the good.” About a week later，the king went on another hunting trip.
