As Christmas is coming, there are presents to be bought, cards to be sent, rooms to be cleaned. Parents are 
with difficult jobs of hiding presents from curious young children. If the gifts are large, this is sometimes a real 
. On Christmas Eve, young children find the 
almost unbearable（难以忍受的）. They are 
between the wish to go to bed early so that Father Christmas will bring their presents quickly and the wish to 
up late so that they will not 
the fun. The wish for gifts usually proves stronger. But though children go to bed early, they often lie 
for a long time, hoping to get a short look at Father Christmas.
Last Christmas, my wife and I 
managed to hide a few large presents in the storeroom. I feared the moment when my son, Jimmy, would 
me where that new bike had come from, but 
he did not see it.
On Christmas Eve, it took the children hours to go to sleep. It must have been nearly 
when my wife and I went quietly into their room and began 
stockings. Then I pushed in the 
I bought for Jimmy and left it beside the Christmas tree. We knew we would not get 
sleep that night, for the children were 
to get up early. At about five o'clock the next morning, we were woken by loud sounds coming from the children's room － they were shouting excitedly! 
I had time to get out of bed, young Jimmy came 
into the room on his new bike, and his sister, Mary, 
close behind pushing her new baby carriage. Even the baby arrived, he moved 
the hands and knees into the room dragging a large balloon behind him. Suddenly it burst. That woke 
up completely. The day had really begun with a bang（巨响）.

Grandma Moses is among the most famous twentieth-century painters of the United States, yet she did not start painting until she was in her late seventies. As she once said to herself: " I would never sit back in a rocking chair, waiting for someone to help me." No one could have had a more productive old age.
She was born Anna Mary Robertson on a farm in New York State, one of five boys and five girls. At twelve she left home and was in domestic service until, at twenty--seven, she married Thomas Moses, the hired hand of one of her employers. They farmed most of their lives, first in Virginia and then in New York State, at Eagle Bridge. She had ten children, of whom five survived; her husband died in 1927.
Grandma Moses painted a little as a child and made embroidery (刺绣) pictures as a hobby, but only changed to oils in old age because her hands had become too stiff to sew and she wanted to keep busy and pass the time. Her pictures were first sold at the local drugstore and at a market and were soon noticed by a businessman who bought everything she painted. Three of the pictures exhibited in the Museum of Modern Art, and in 1940 she had her first exhibition in New York. Between the 1930's and her death, she produced some 2,000 pictures: detailed and lively portrayals of the country life she had known for so long, with a wonderful sense of color and form. "I think really hard till I think of something really pretty, and then I paint it" she said.
【小题1】According to the passage, Grandma Moses began to paint because she wanted to_______.
| A．make herself beautiful | B．become famous |
| C．earn more money | D．keep active |
| A．nursing | B．painting | C．farming | D．embroidering |
| A．pretty | B．nervous | C．rich | D．independent |
| A．The Children of Grandma Moses. | B．Grandma Moses: Her Life and Pictures. |
| C．Grandma Moses: Her Best Exhibition. | D．Grandma Moses and Other Older Artists. |
