I was just in France to visit my grandmother who is very dear to me. I don’t get to cross the Atlantic very often, and she’s now 96 years old, so every time I visit her, the two of us are very aware that it might be the last time we see each other.
Last year, I did a series of short video interviews about her life. I asked her what it was like growing up with her father in the 1910s, and living alone with two young children. I asked her about her greatest memories, and her favorite books, foods, etc. I learned a lot of amazing new things about her I had never known before. These were very intimate conversations, which made me know her better.
This year, I did not really have questions and I only had a great desire to make her know how much I loved her. I cooked for her and read her stories. I gave her a foot massage (按摩), which was her first ever! Before leaving, I was looking for a way to leave something meaningful behind besides the memory of our time together. Therefore, I wrote her five different love notes, and hid them in different places where I knew she would eventually find them.
I left really joyously knowing that these cards would surely cheer her up after I left. She called me as I was travelling back to Paris to catch my plane back to the US and said, “I found your cards! By the time I discovered the last one, I was laughing out loud! Thank you so much, my sweetheart!” I smiled to myself, knowing she still had two more to go! It was Sunday, so my guess was that she had not checked her mailbox and had not yet driven her car!
1.The underlined word “intimate” in Paragraph 2 probably means __________.
A. close B. inspiring C. impressive D. usual

C. grandmother always calls the author before she gets on the airplane
D. grandmother does exercises by finding the cards

Before the print was brought to England in 1476, everything was written by hand. The few people who knew how to write were trained in schools set up by the church. Those who made a living by writing for other people were called scribes(抄写员)。
The work of scribes was not easy. Much of it had to be done fast in order to meet the needs of the King. the church and traders. Most of the writing was in Latin(拉丁) ,but some of it was in the English of the day. And no one was quite sure how some English words should be spelled.
One problem was that several letters were written with short vertical strok（竖笔）that all looked like each other. Among them were the letters , i, u, v, m and n, Thus .five straight lines in a row might stand for uni nui uvi or mii.
As a result .reading was sometimes difficult, especially when the writing was done in a hurry.
The scribes solved(解决)the problem in part, by changing the letter u to o when it came before m. n or v. This is how sum and cum came to be written as some and come.
At some point, too, the scribes seemed to have decided that no English word should be ended by u or v. Thus, in time an e was added to such words as live, have, due and true. It was added, but not pronounced.
1.Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. Everything has been written by hand in English since 1476.
B. The church set up schools to train scribes before 1476.
C. More than 500 years ago no people made a living by writing for other people.
D. Scribes in England worked only for kings and traders.
2.Sometimes people couldn’t read easily_____________
A. because there were too many u’s and v’s in sonic English words.
B. because most of the writing was in Latin.
C. When tile writing was done hurriedly.
D. when the writing was in English.
3.The scribes changed u before m to o because___________
A. the change helped them write faster
B. om was the right order
C. um and om had the same pronunciation
D. the change made reading easier
4.It is believed that some scribes thought___________
A. it important to add an e to every English word
B. an English word should be ended neither by n nor by v
C. it natural to change the spelling of sonic Latin words
D. the letter e at the end of any word shouldn't be pronounced
