My Mother, My Role Model
My mom is one of the most important people in my life and what makes her so special is that she seems to have no idea how encouraging she is.She has led our family and guided my brothers and sisters and me simply by being herself.She leads by example, showing us her values and making sure we live by our own.She carries out this example by pushing us to do our first volunteer work when I was only seven, and she joined in herself.She pushes us to treat everyone we meet with respect and I have never heard of her speaking ill of others or putting someone down.
She cares for the people she loves from the bottom of her heart and always puts our needs before those of her own.My mother herself is easy-going and selfless and works hard to connect and understand each of her children to make sure we are able to laugh at ourselves and never take life too seriously.She strongly believes in treating everyone equally (平等的), but not completely in the same way.She could always find the right way for the different child so that everyone can get the most from her advice.
She looks to the goal of making us independent, successful, and capable(有能力的) in the world and while she encourages me to work through difficulties, she also hardly ever pushes her ideas onto me.She is always there supporting me whether I win or lose, pass or fail.
She is my leadership role model and from her I learn to focus on one's strong points, but not weaknesses.I learn to not only set a drive in my followers but also have them know that they are important to me no matter what they achieved.
In my last leadership experience, the girls in my group were to examine their lives and decide who they want to be for the future.My mother's example helped me find ways to make these girls comfortable enough to open up and share their experiences.I have taken what my mother has taught me and carried it out into a special leadership style that perfectly puts her practice and my own experience together. 21.Who is the writer's role model?

Ⅱ.[主旨大意] “我”在河岸捡到两枚银币,两天后“我”经过河岸看见Mary和她的妹妹在找东西。“我”的第一个想法是谁找到了就是谁的,第二个想法是她们永远不会知道,当Mary问“我”是否看到银币时“我”的第三个想法是编个谎言,但是开口时“我”犹豫了,最后还是告诉了Mary真相并把硬币还给了她。这件事使“我”明白通过不诚实的手段得到钱永远不会带来快乐。
13.A 上一段提到“我”在雪里发现两枚银币,所以这里自然是“我”把两个银币放到了口袋里。故选A。 14.C 根据后文中“I dropped them right here”可知Mary和妹妹正在找之前掉在这里的银币。故选C。 15.B 根据下一句中“she said between tears.”她眼泪汪汪地说,可知Sue已经哭了。故选B。
