Just then a general was passing there. He told his men to save the young men and took them to their company.“Go to change your wet clothes,” the general said angrily. “But you must hand your papers of the holidays to me first. I won’t give them back to you until they are dry.”A week passed. Fred and Mike wanted to take their weekend again. They came to the general to ask for their papers. But the general wasn’t in.

They realize their bitterness is a poison they think they can pour out, but they end up drinking it themselves, said Canadian-born Hart.The students meet in groups of eight to ten for a two-hour workshop with an adviser every fortnight.（= two weeks）The course, ending in July, is expected to get rid of the cancer of hate in these people. “People have lots of negative（消极的）attitudes towards forgiveness,” he said. “People confuse （把……混同）forgiveness with forgetting. Forgiveness means changing from a negative attitude to a positive one（积极的态度）”.Hart and his team have made instructions to provide the training needed.“The main idea is to give you guidelines on how to look at various kinds of angers and how they affect you, an d how to change your attitudes toward the person you are angry with,” said Norman Claringbull, a senior expert on the forgiveness project, Hart said he believes forgiveness is a skill that can be taught, as these people “want to get free of the past”.47. From this passage we know that .A. high blood pressure and heart disease are caused by hatredB. high blood pressure can only be cured by psychology professorsC. without hatred, people will have less trouble connected with blood and heartD. people who suffer from blood pressure and heart disease must have many enemies48. If you are angry with somebody, you should .A. try your best to defeat him or herB. never meet him or her againC. persuade him or her to have a talk with youD. relax yourself by not thinking of him or her any more49. In Hart’s first 20-week workshop, people there can .A. meet their enemiesB. change their mindsC. enjoy the professor’s speechD. learn how to quarrel with others50. If you are a member in Hart’s workshop, you’ll.A. pay much money to HartB. go to the workshop every nightC. attend a gathering twice a monthD. pour out everything stored in your mindDNo one know why we sleep, but it’s certain that we need to. People who are prevented from sleeping begin to suffer obvious effect after (明显效果) a few days –they think less clearly, and they fall asleep during the working hours, some may have hallucination (幻觉).There were no rules about sleep. Generally speaking, grown-ups sleep about 7 and a half hours each night and probably more than 60 percent get between 7 or 8 hours. But perhaps eight percent are quite happy with 5 hours or less, and four percent or so find that they want ten hours or more. If you fell all righ t you’re probably getting enough sleep. The important thing is not to2 worry how much other people get –their needs may be different. Exercise doesn’t seem to increase the need for sleep –office workers, for example sleep for about as long as people doing physically active work.Children sleep more than grown-ups – perhaps 14 to 18 hours soon after birth, going down to grown-up levels by early teen-age. Sleep patterns also tend to (易于) be different in the elderly, who may sleep less at night than they did when younger, find sleep getting more broken, and often make it a rule to sleep during the daytime.51. According to the passage some people are unable to think clearly because _____A. they have hallucinationsB. They feel sleepy during the working hoursC. They don’t have enough sleepD. They are certain to be kept from going to bed52. Which of the following is true?A. All grown-ups must have at least eight-hour sleepB. Most of the grown-ups sleep for seven or eight boutsC. Quite a few people need only five hours or less for them to sleepD. No grown-ups sleep more than ten hours53. Whether you have enough sleep is judged by _____.A. how many hours you have sleptB. how many hours you need to sleepC. whether you need do exercise and physical workD. whether you feel fresh and energetic54. According to the passage, a boy of 14 years old sleeps ____.A. as long hours as a grown-upB. much longer hours than a grown-upC. for 14 hours each nightD. for less than eight hours per night55. Who find they sleeps less during the night and must take a nap during the day?A. ChildrenB. Grown-upsC. Young peopleD. Old people答案：39-42 A A D B 43-46 B A C D47-50 C D B C 51-55 C B D A D。

I was rebellious1 out－side，but I wanted to be liked inside.Once I left home to hitch-hike2 to California with my friend Penelope. The trip wasn’t easy，and there were many t imes I didn’t feel safe. One situation in particular kept me grateful to still be alive. When I returned home，I was different，not so outwardly sure of myself.I was happy to be home. But then I noticed that Penelope，who was staying with us，was wearing my clothes. And my family seemed to like her better than me. I wondered if I would be missed if I weren’t there.I told my mom，and she explained that though Penelope was a lovely girl，no one could replace me. I pointed out，“Ｓhe is more patient and is neater than I have ever been.” My mom said these were wonderful qualities，but I was the only person who could fill my role. She made me realize that even with my faults—and there were many－I was a loved member of the family who couldn’t be replaced.I became a searcher，wanting to find out who I was and what made me unique. My view of myself was changing. I wanted a solid base to start from. I started to resist3 pressure to act in ways that I didn’t like any more，and I was delighted by who I really was. I came to feel much more sure that no one can ever take my place.Each of us holds a unique place in the world. You are special，no matter what others say or what you may think. So forget about being replaced. You can’t be.当我还是个10几岁的少年的时候，觉得自己总是让人失望。

高考英语阅读理解专练及英语美文欣赏(含练习答案)
高考英语阅读理解专练及英语美文欣赏AWhile an entire month free of homework or tests may sound too good to be true，that is exactly what the students at Sturenskolan School in Boden，Sweden were treated to in April. What's more，if the results of the experiment prove encouraging，starting 2019，the middle schoolers will never have to worry about after-school work or tests，aside from the national examinations，which are compulsive for students across the country.The school's principal，Petronella Sirkka，who came up with the idea，said，“Weare constantly receiving new reports that our children feel bad. And that's because they have a high level of stress all the time. This is our way of trying to reduce that stress.”The educator says that while banning homework and tests sounds radical(激进的), it makes sense given the changes in the curriculum and approaches to education. While in the past students were primarily subjected to memorizing facts，learning today is all about reflection and analysis. As a result，it is often harder for kids, especially those with little support at home, to comprehend the material by themselves.Sirkka is not the only one who believes after-school work does not help students learn. In March 2018，another principal in Canada also decided to do away with homework. They hope parents will spend the extra time reading to their kids.While the long-term impact of the recent decisions made by the two educators remains to be seen，the experiment has already proved successful in Finland which has done away with homework，grades，and even teaching by subjects for many years. Yet，Finnish students always rank high in the PISA(Programme for International Student Assessment) tests especially in math and science but they have the least homework！Hopefully，it will only be a matter of time before US educators follow their lead and ban after-school work as well!1.The students at Sturenskolan School had no homework in April because．A．the headmaster was experimenting with her ideaB．they needed to do some experiments during the monthC．they were busy preparing for the national examinationsD．the headmaster had to carry out the government's policy2．What makes children's learning hard nowadays?A．Children have to do more analyzing.B．The approach to education is complex.C．Children get no support at home and school.D．There are many more facts to memorize.3．What does Petronella Sirkka most likely advise parents to do?A．Help children with their homework.B．Free children from after-school housework.C．Spend more time reading to their children.D．Communicate with teachers from time to time.4．What can we infer about the students in Finland?A．They study the hardest at school.B．They have a more relaxing school life.C．They enjoy great success after graduation.D．They all have a talent for math and science.答案与解析【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。

高中英语 晨读英语美文60篇 19 I will persist until I succeed素材
I will persist until I succeed.I was not delivered unto this world in defeat, nor does failure course in my veins.I am not a sheep waiting to be prodded by my shepherd. I am a lion and I refuse to talk, to walk, to sleep with the sheep. I will hear not those who weep and complain, for their disease is contagious. Let them join the sheep. The slaughterhouse of failure is not my destiny.坚持不懈.直到成功。
我不是为了失败才来到这个世界上的，我的血管里也没有失败的血液在流动。
我不是任人鞭打的羔羊，我是猛狮，不与羊群为伍。
我不想听失意者的哭泣，抱怨者的牢骚，这是羊群中的瘟疫，我不能被它传染。
失败者的屠宰场不是我命运的归宿。
I will persist until I succeed.The prizes of life are at the end of each journey, not near the beginning; and it is not given to me to know how many steps are necessary in order to reach my goal. Failure I may still encounter at the thousandth step, yet success hides behind the next bend in the road. Never will I know how close it lies unless I turn the corner.Always will I take another step. If that is of no avail I will take another, and yet another. In truth, one step at a time is not too difficult.坚持不懈，直到成功。
高一年级英语阅读理解专项练习及答案(一)(1)
高中阅读理解专项训练附答案解析1篇The word “sport” first meant something that people did in their free time. Later it often meant hunting wild animals and birds. About a hundred years ago the word was first used for organized games. This is the usual meaning of the word today. People spend a lot of time playing football, basketball, tennis and many other sports. Such people play because they leant to. A few people are paid for sport they play. These people are called professional sportsmen. They may be sportsmen for only a few years, but during that time the best ones can earn a lot of money. For example, a professional football player in England earns more than 300,000 dollars a year. The stars earn a lot more. International golf and tennis champions can make more than 500,000 dollars a year. Of course, only a few sportsmen can earn as much as that.Perhaps the most surprising thing about sportsmen and money is that the stars can earn more money from advertising than from sports. An advertisement for sports equipment does not simply mean, “Buy our things”. It says, “Buy the same shirt and shoes as…” Famous sportsmen can even advertise things like watches and food. They allow the companies to use their names or a photo of them and they are paid for this. Sport is no longer just something for people’s spare time.1．From the passage we can learn that .A．famous people spend too much money and time on sportsB．the development of sports is slower than any other activityC．most people enjoy sports because they can earn a lot of moneyD．now sports is not only an amusement for people2．In this passage “professional sportsmen” means people “_____________”.A．who teach others how to make money in sportsB．who take sports as their jobsC．who are very fond of sportsD．who teach other sportsmen how to play sports3．Now, the “sport” means .A．what most of the people do in their spare timeB．hunting wild animals and birds in the forestsC．organized gamesD．something that people are paid to4．Which of the following is TRUE?A．Most people play sports only for money.B．Those who play sports earn more than those who do not.C．People play sports for different purposes.D．Those who play sports want to keep strong and fit.【答案】1．D2．B3．C4．C【分析】本文是说明文。
高中课外阅读--英语美文欣赏32(中英双语)
英语美文欣赏32愿得一人心，白首不分离One warm evening many years ago…犹记得多年前，那个让人暖心的夜晚After spending nearly every waking minute with Angel for eight straight days, I knew that I had to tell her just one thing. So late at night, just before she fell asleep, I whispered it in her ear. She smiled –the kind of smile that makes me smile back –and she said, “When I’m seventy-five and I think about my life and what it was like to be young, I hope that I can remember this very moment.整整8天除了睡着其余的时间我都陪着安吉尔，酝酿已久，我想我一定要告诉她一件事。
于是这天夜里，就在她刚刚睡下，我便在她耳边轻声说起来，说完她就笑了，是那种希望得到我回应的笑，接着说道：“真希望我老到75岁的时候，开始回忆，这一刻须臾会变成永恒。
A few seconds later she closed her eyes and fell asleep. The room was peaceful – almost silent. All I could hear was the soft purr of her breathing. I stayed awake thinkin g about the time we’d spent together and all the choices in our lives that made this moment possible. And at some point, I realized that it didn’t matter what we’d done or where we’d gone. Nor did the future hold any significance.很快她就闭上眼睛睡着了，整个房间祥和安静，甚至有些寂静。

高中英语阅读理解练习题1【LONDON】LONDON----A morning‘s train ride away, across the Channel, English kids talk about Liverpool‘s soccer team in a Paris pub.Some Parisians have even started to go to work in London.In the 19th century, Charles Dickens compared the two great rival(竞争的) cities, London and Paris, in‖ A Tale of Two Cities.‖ These days, it might be A Tale of One City.Parisians are these days likely to smile in sympathy at a visitor‘s broken French and respond in polite English.As jobs grew lack at home over recent years, perhaps 250000 Frenchmen moved across the Channel. With an undersea tunnel, they could travel between cities in three hours. The European Union freed them from immigration and customs.Paris, rich in beauty, is more attractive. But London feels more full of life, and more fun until the pubs shut down.―For me, the difference is that London is real, alive,‖ said Trevor Wheeler, a banker.Chantal Jaouen, a professional designer, agrees.‖ I am French, but I‘ll stay in London,‖ she said.There is, of course, the other view. Julie Lenoux is a student who moved to London two years ag o.‖ I think people laugh more in Paris,‖ she said.In fact, London and Paris, with their obvious new similarities,are beyond the old descriptions. As the European Union gradually loosened controls, Londoners flocked into Paris to shop, eat and buy property.―Both cities have changed beyond recognition.‖ said Larry Collins, a writer and sometimes a Londoner.Like most people who know both well, he finds the two now fit together comfortably. ―I first fell in love with Paris in the 1950s, and it is still a wo nderful place,‖ Collins said. ―But if I had to choose, it would be London. Things are so much more ordered, and life is better.‖But certainly not cheaper.In fancy parts of London, rents can be twice those on Avenue Foch in Paris. Deciding between London and Paris requires a lifestyle choice.Like Daphne Benoit, a French journalism student with perfect English, many young people are happy to be close enough so they don‘t have to choose.―I love Paris, my little neighborhood, the way I can walk around a cen ter, but life is so structured,‖ she said. ―In London, you can be who you wan. No one cares.‖1.The best title for this passage is______.A. Londoners and ParisiansB. A Modern Tale of Two CitiesC. The Similarity of Two CitiesD. Fancy London and Fashionable Paris2.We can infer from the text______.A. Paris and London has become perfect partnersB. London feels more full of lifeC. life in Paris is structuredD. Paris and London have become fierce competitors3.The underlined word‖ flocked‖ probably means______.A. came in large numbersB. flew a long wayC. rushedhurriedly D. drove long distances4.Living in Paris, you may find______.A. life is betterB. things are cheaperC. more attractive peopleD. a job easily5.From the passage we can know______.A. the two cities have developed very fastB. London is better than Paris nowC. Paris is a favourite place for all journalism studentsD. people in both London and Paris now lead a regular life 答案：BAABA。

高中每日一题英语作文
高中每日一题英语作文Paragraph 1: Yesterday, I had the most amazing day at school. We had a surprise visit from a famous author who shared his experiences and inspirations with us. It was truly inspiring to hear his stories and learn about his writing process. I couldn't believe that I was in the presence of someone so talented and successful. It made me realize that with hard work and determination, I can achieve my dreams too.Paragraph 2: In the afternoon, we had a heated debate in our English class. The topic was whether or not social media has a positive impact on society. It was interesting to hear different perspectives and arguments from my classmates. Some believed that social media helps us stay connected and informed, while others argued that it leads to addiction and isolation. I enjoyed expressing my own opinions and listening to others, as it broadened my understanding of the topic.Paragraph 3: Later that day, I participated in a drama club rehearsal. We are preparing for our upcoming performance of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. It's a challenging play, but I love the thrill of acting and bringing characters to life. We practiced our lines and worked on our stage movements. It's amazing how a simple gesture or expression can convey so much emotion. I can't wait for the final performance, where we can showcase our hard work and dedication.Paragraph 4: After school, I went to the library to do some research for my history project. I love diving into books and uncovering fascinating facts about the past. It's like going on an adventure without leaving my seat. I spent hours reading and taking notes, completely absorbed in my studies. Learning about different time periods and cultures is not only educational, but also helps me appreciate the world we live in today.Paragraph 5: Finally, in the evening, I attended a basketball game at our school. The atmosphere was electric, with cheering fans and intense competition. I love theenergy and excitement of sports events. It's a great way to unwind and support my classmates. Even though our teamdidn't win, the spirit and camaraderie among the players and spectators was truly inspiring.In conclusion, my day at school was filled with diverse experiences and opportunities for growth. From meeting a famous author to engaging in debates, rehearsals, research, and sports events, I had a well-rounded and enriching day.I am grateful for the opportunities that high school provides and look forward to more exciting adventures in the future.。

英语美文欣赏75Life is about choices 幸福可以选择迈克尔是个天生的乐天派，他总是能保持良好的情绪，总是能说出很多积极的话来。
他也让我懂得了一个道理，那就是人生中的每一天我们都可以选择充实地生活，态度决定一切。
Michael is the kind of guy you love to hate. He is always in a good mood and always has something positive to say. When someone would ask him how he was doing, he would reply, "If I were any better, I'd be twins!" He was a natural motivator.If an employee was having a bad day, Michael was there telling the employee how to look on the positive side of the situation. Seeing this style really made me curious, so one day I went up to Michael and asked him, "I don' t get it. You can' t be positive all the time. How do you do it?"Michael replied, each morning I wake up and say to myself 'Mike, you have two choices today. You can choose to be in a good mood or you can choose to be in a bad mood.' I choose to be in a good mood. Each time something bad happens, I can choose to be a victim or choose to learn from it. I choose to learn from it. Every time someone comes to me complaining I can choose to accept their complaining or I can point out the positive side of life. I choose the positive side of life.""Yeah, right. It isn't that easy." I protested."Yes it is, " Michael said. "Life is all about choices. When you cut away all the junk, every situation is a choice. You choose how you react to situations. You choose how people will affect your mood. You choose to be in a good mood or bad mood. The bottom line is: It's your choice how you live life. " I reflected on what Michael said.Soon thereafter, I left the big enterprise that I had worked in for years to start my own business. We lost touch, but I often though about him when I made a choice about life instead of reacting to it. Several years later, I heard Michael was involved in a serious accident, falling off 60 feet from a communications tower.After l8 hours of surgery, and weeks of intensive care, Michael was released from the hospital with rods placed in his back. I saw Michael about six months after the accident. When I asked him how he was, he replied, "If I were any better, I'd be twins. Wanna see my scars?" I declined to see his wounds, but did ask him what had gone through his mind as the accident took place."The first thing that went through my mind was the well being of my soon-to-born daughter," Michael replied. "Then, as I lay on the ground,remembered I had two choices: I could choose to live or I could choose to die. I chose to live." "Weren't you scared? Did you lose consciousness?" I asked. Michael continued, "... the paramedics were great. They kept telling me I was going to be fine. But when they wheeled me into the operation room and I saw the expressions on the faces of the doctors and nurses, I got really scared. In their eyes, l read 'He's a dead man.' I knew I needed to take action." "What did you do?" I asked. "Well, there was a big burly nurse shouting questions at me" said Michael. "She asked me if I was allergic to anything. 'Yes,' I said. The doctors and nurses stopped working as they waited for my reply. I took a deep breath and yelled", 'Gravity'" Over their laughter, I told them, 'I'm choosing to live. Operate on me as if I am alive, not dead'."Michael lived, thanks to the skill of his doctors, but also because of his amazing attitude.I learned from him that every day we have a choice to live fully. Attitude is everything.窗Random Thoughts on the Window又是春天，窗子可以常开了。

【高中英语每日一练】美文欣赏
The Goodness of life 生命的美好
Though there is much to be concerned about, there is far, far more for which to be thankful. Though life’s goodness can at times be overshadowed, it is never outweighed.
For every single act that is senselessly destructive, there are thousands more small, quiet acts of love, kindness and compassion. For every person who seeks to hurt, there are many, many more who devote their lives to helping and to healing.
There is goodness to life that cannot be denied.
In the most magnificent vistas and in the smallest details, look closely, for that goodness always comes shining through.
There si no limit to the goodness of life. It grows more abundant with each new encounter. The more you experience and appreciate the goodness of life, the more there is to be lived.
Even when the cold winds blow and the world seems to be cov ered in foggy shadows, the goodness of life lives on. Open your eyes, open your heart, and you will see that goodness is everywhere.
Though the goodness of life seems at times to suffer setbacks, it always endures. For in the darkest moment it becomes vividly clear that life is a priceless treasure. And so the goodness of life is made even stronger by the very things that would oppose it.
Time and time again when you feared it was gone forever you found that the goodness of life was really only a moment away. Around the next corner, inside every moment, the goodness of life is there to surprise and delight you.
Take a moment to let the goodness of life touch your spirit and calm your thoughts. Then, share your good fortune with another. For the goodness of life grows more and more magnificent each time it is given away.
Though the problems constantly scream for attention and the conflicts appear to rage ever stronger, the goodness of life grows stronger still, quietly, peacefully, with more purpose and meaning than ever before.
译文：生命的美好
尽管有很多事让人忧虑，但相比而言，值得感激的事要多得多。
尽管生命的美好有时被蒙上阴影，但它却永远不会被埋没。
相对于每一个无谓的破坏行为而言，都有更多数以千计更为微小的，包含着爱，友善和同情的举动静静地上演着。
相对于每一个试图伤害他人的人而言，都有更多的人致力于帮助他人，治愈他人的创伤。
生命的美好不能否认。
在最为壮观的前景和最为琐碎的细节中，请仔细观察，因为美好的事物总是散发着耀眼的光芒闪亮登场。
生命的美好没有界限。
每一次相遇都会使这美好变得越发丰富。
你经历得越多，越能欣赏生命的美好，生命中的美好就会变得越多。
即使当寒风袭来，整个世界似乎被雾气掩盖之时，生命的美好仍会存在。
睁开双眼，打开心扉，你就会发现这美好无处不在。
尽管生命的美好有时似乎遭受挫折，但它总会挺过来。
因为，在最黑暗的时刻，有一点变得格外清楚，那就是，生命是无价的财富。
因此，下正是与生命的美好相对立的事物使其越发强大。
无数次地，当你担心这美好已经远离之时，你会发现生命的美好其实只与你相隔须臾。
它就在下一角落，存在于每个时刻之间，等着给你惊喜。
花些时间让生命的美好感动自己的灵魂，放松自己的思绪。
然后，把你的幸运与他人分享。
因为生命的美好会在每次给予之间变得越来越壮观。
尽管总是有问题让你去关注，冲突也似乎愈演愈烈，但生命的美好却总是静静地，平和地，带着比以往更强的意志和更多的价值变得更加强大。
