    阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项，

    　　Can you understand the beginning of this article?

    　　“My smmr hols wr CWOT．B4, we usd 2go2 NY 2C my bro, his GF & 3 kds FTF．”

    　　The Scottish teacher who received it in class had no idea what the girl who wrote it meant．The essay was written in a form of English used in cell phone text messages．Text messages(also called SMS2)through cell phones became very popular in the late 1990s．At first, mobile phone companies thought that text messaging would be a good way to send messages to customers, but customers quickly began to use the text messaging service to send messages to each other．Teenagers in particular enjoyed using text messaging, and they began to create a new language for messages called texting．

    　　A text message is limited to 160 characters, including letters, spaces, and numbers, so messages must be kept short．In addition, typing on the small keypad of a cell phone is difficult, so it's common to make words shorter．In texting, a single letter or number can represent a word, like “r” for “are,” “u” for “you,” and “2” for “to．” Several letters can also represent a phrase, like “lol” for “laughing out loud．” Another characteristic of texting is the leaving out of letters in a word, like spelling “please” as “pls．”

    　　Some parents and teachers worry that texting will make children bad spellers and bad writers．The student who wrote the essay at the top of this page said writing that way was more comfortable for her．(The essay said, “My summer holidays were a complete waste of time．Before, we used to go to New York to see my brother, his girlfriend, and their three kids face to face．”)

    　　Not everyone agrees that texting is a bad thing．Some experts say languages always evolve, and this is just another way for English to change．Other people believe texting will disappear soon．New technology for voice messages may soon make text messages a thing of the past．

    Scars of Love

    Some years ago on a hot summer day in south Florida a little boy decided to go for a swim in the old swimming hole behind his house. In a hurry to dive into the cool water, he ran out of the back door, leaving behind shoes, socks and shirt as he went.

    He flew into the water, not realizing that as he swam toward the middle of the lake, an alligator（短吻鳄） was getting close. The mother in the house was looking out of the window and saw the two as they got closer and closer together. In great fear, she ran toward the water, yelling to her son as loudly as she could. Hearing her voice, the little boy became alarmed and made a U-turn to swim to his mother. It was too late. Just as he reached her, the alligator reached him. From the dock, the mother grabbed her little boy by the arms just as the alligator snatched (抓住) his legs. That began an unbelievable tug-of-war (拔河比赛) between the two. The alligator was much stronger than the mother, but the mother was much too passionate to let go. A farmer happened to drive by, heard their screams, rushed from his truck, took aim and shot the alligator.

    Remarkably, after weeks and weeks in the hospital, the little boy survived. His legs were extremely scarred (留下伤疤) by the terrible attack of the animal. And on his arms, were deep scratches where his mother’s fingernails dug into his flesh in her effort to hang on to the son she loved.

    The newspaper reporter, who interviewed the boy after the trauma （外伤）, asked if he would show him his scars. The boy lifted the pant legs. And then, with obvious pride, he said to the reporter, “Look at my arms. I have great scars on my arms, too. I have them because my mum wouldn’t let go.”

    You and I can identify with （认同） that little boy. We have scars, too. Not from an alligator, but the scars of a painful past. Some of those scars are unsightly and have caused us deep regret. But, some wounds, my friends, are because we have refused to let go.

    56. The underlined part “the two” in the second paragraph refers to ______.

       A. the alligator and the mother         B. the mother and the son

    C. the driver and the alligator          D. the son and the alligator

    57. From the passage we can infer ________.

       A. The mother was unwilling to let the alligator go

       B. The mother was actually stronger than the alligator

       C. The son was proud of his scars on his arms

       D. The son was ashamed of his scars on his legs

    58. According to the last paragraph, what is the writer’s real meaning?

       A. To forget the past is to betray.       B. We should forget the scars.

       C. Wounds are different from scars.     D. We should learn to let go sometimes.
