It was Sunday morning. I heard loud noises of moving furniture in the next room. I could almost feel the excitement of John who was soon going to get a room of his own. I knew how much he longed for his right to privacy when he was sharing a room with his younger brother, Robot. He said, “Mum, Can I have a room of my own? I could use Jeff’s. He won’t mind.”

It was true that Jeff had graduated from college and flown from the nest. But would he mind? The room was the place where I told him a thousand stories and we had a thousand talks. As close as we were, though, the time came when Jeff needed a door between us. His life was spreading into areas that had less to do with family. I no longer could-or-should know everything about him.

It turned out that getting Jeff’s permission was easy. He said, “Of course, Mum, it would be selfish of me to hold on to it.” Then his voice softened, “Mum, I won’t be living at home again — you know that.” Behind his glasses, his eyes were lit with all the love. There were no doors closed here — they had all opened up again.

As John and I were cleaning the room, I fixed my eyes on Jeff’s things around me and could almost touch the little boy I knew was gone forever. I looked at the room and, in my heart, I let it go. To hold on would be, as Jeff said, selfish. Now it was time for John, shouldering through the door, his eyes bright with promise of independence, to disappear behind the door. It was time for letting go to happen again.

24．The underlined sentence in the second paragraph probably means “______”.

A. Jeff needed his right to privacy

B. Jeff finally flew out of the house

C. Jeff got tired of those familiar stories

D. Jeff would have less to do with his family

B. all her three kids made the author feel depressed

C. none of the members in the family thought the same way

D. the author loved and missed the time together with her kids

C

After more than 3,000 years, a statue of the Egyptian king Amenhotep III has been erected in the city of Luxor after being knocked down by an earthquake.

One of the great figures in the story of ancient Egypt, Amenhotep III was a boy king. He became king of Egypt at the age of only 12 years. He ruled at a time when Egyptian civilization was at its very height.

Amenhotep III was given statues in his honor and among them this 13-meter-high statue stood on the bank of the Nile until it was knocked down by an earthquake 3,000 years ago. So for 30 centuries, it lay in pieces in the field, more than 80 pieces. Now the statue has been restored and shown to the public. There is another very similar huge statue of Amenhotep III. It was also damaged by that earthquake. And it, too, has been repaired and put back in its place. These two statues stand at the gates of the famous funerary temple in Luxor, which has another two huge seated figures of the kings.

And the background for this is just that tourism is very important to the Egyptian economy after what’s been happening recently. Years of disturbance (骚乱) has hit the Egyptian economy in many ways and any improvement of that economy will need to be helped by the tourist industry. The legacy (遗产) of ancient Egypt is so much, so important to that tourist industry. And the images coming from Luxor today show just how delighted and proud the archeologists and the local people are for what they’ve seen today.

28. What can we learn about Amenhotep III from the passage?

A. He was deeply loved by Egyptians. B. He
