When Jane 5 home that afternoon,I asked her the same question. She also replied with a long, 6 face but her answer was a little different as she announced,“I didn’t learn to 7 today.”What a disappointment for a little girl who thought she would 8 know how to read her little books after the first day of school.

阅读理解。

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。

Whenever we turn on the TV or radio, read the newspapers, surf the Internet, we'll be surrounded by the word "diet" everywhere. We have so easily been attracted by the promise of diet products that we have stopped thinking about what diet products are doing to us. We are paying for products that harm us psychologically（心理上地）and physically.It's obvious that diet products weaken us psychologically. They allow us to jump over the thinking stage that our weight problems lie not in actually losing the weight, but in controlling the consumption of fat. All we have to do is to swallow or recognize the word "diet" in food labels.What's more, diet products have greater psychological effects. Every time we have a zero-calorie drink, we are telling ourselves that we don't have to work to get results．Diet products make people believe that gain comes without pain, and that life can be without resistance and struggle.As a matter of fact, the danger that diet products bring not only lies in the psychological effects they have on us, but also in the physical harm they cause. Diet foods and diet pills contain zero calorie. oaly because the diet industry has created chemicals to produce these wonder products, And they can indirectly harm our bodies because consuming them instead of healthy foods means we are stopping our bodies having basic nutrients. Diet products may not be nutritional, and the chemicalsthat go into diet products are potentially dangerous.Losing weight lies in the power of minds, not in the power of chemicals. Think twice before buying diet products. Once we realize this, we will be much better able to resist diet products, 3rd therefore, prevent the psychological and physical harm that comes from using them.1. From Paragraph 1，we learn thatA. diet products are in our daily lifeB. people have trouble choosfng diet productsC. people should put up with diet productsD. diet products are misleading people2. The psychological effect of diet products is that people tend toA. hesitate before they enjoy diet foods B, pay attention to their daily dietC. watch their weight rather than their dietD. try out varieties of diet foods3. The underlined part in Paragraph 3 probably meansA. diet products cause no pain B, it costs a lot to.lose weightC. losing weight is effortlessD. diet products are free of fat and calories4．Diet products indirectly harm people physically because such productsA. are over-consumedB. are short of basic nutrientsC. lack chemicalsD. provide too much energy参考答案1—4、DCCB2016高考训练题。

I grew into adulthood and went to college.I had to ride the bus whenever I came home.Though the bus stopped about two miles from home,Dad never met me,even in severe weather.If I grumbled,he’d say in his loudest father-voice,“That’s what your legs are for!”The walk didn’t bother me as much as the fear of walking alone along the highway and country roads.I also felt less than valued that my father didn’t seem concerned about my safety.But that feeling was canceled one spring evening.It had been a particularly difficult week at college after long hours in labs.I longed for home.When the bus reached a stop,I stepped off and dragged my suitcase to begin the long journey home.A row of hedge (树篱) edged the driveway that climbed the hill to our house.Once I had turned off the highway to start the last lap of my journey,I always had a sense of relief to see the hedge because it meant that I was almost home.On that particular evening,the hedge had just come into view when I saw something gray moving along the top of the hedge,moving toward the house.Upon closer observation,I realized it was the top of my father’s head.Then I knew,each time I’d come home,he had stood behind the hedge,watching,until he knew I had arrived safely.I swallowed hard against the tears.He did care,after all.On later visits,that spot of gray became my watchtower.I could hardly wait until I was close enough to watch for its secret movement above the greenery.Upon reaching home,I would find my father sitting innocently in his chair.“So!My son,it’s you!”he’d say,his face lengthening into pretended surprise.I replied,“Yes,Dad,it’s me.I’m home.”5.What does the underlined word “grumbled” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?( )A.Admitted readily.B.Explained clearly.C.Agreed lamely.D.Spoke unhappily.6.What

process.You aggressively talk to people,give out your cards,call endlessly to schedule an appointment but have no real success from your efforts.To help you gain a different future,here are ten habits you should avoid.Ineffective networkers:ck patience.They expect immediate results and want business now,not tomorrow.2.Constantly “selling” something.They see dollar signs every time they shake hands with someone.3.Too many choices.If they offer a variety of products,they might try too hard to tell about all of them.Offering too much information sends a confusing message making it difficult for people to send referrals (指点).Opportunities are all around us but when you’re networking,only focus on one.4.Change positions too often.If they move from company to company or do something totally different,it might be difficult for people to keep up with them.ck manners and respect.They interrupt others,talk with food in their mouth,aren’t very polite and appear unprofessional.They call people during dinner or on the weekends without thinking whether the occasion is suitable.6.Distribute too many cards and sales literature.They come while loading with brochure flyers (传单),catalogues and samples.7.Focus on themselves.Too much self-promotion can leave the other person to feel unappreciated.Every sentence begins with “I” and is all about their business.8.“Taking” instead of “giving”.They don’t realize what other people sense when they are being very selfish.Others may think that they are being taken advantage of.ck authenticity (真实性)and personal values.They may create unrealistic expectations and not deliver on their promises.Sometimes doing things without integrity (正直)possibly twists the truth.10.Poor communication and interpersonal skills.They have trouble speakingeffectively,building relationships and following up.Networking is a process that is an investment of time and money.If you find you’re doing any of these habits,consider learning how to improve on these and maximize your results while networking.You’ll start to get better at connecting with people and obtain more referrals.1.According to the text,some people didn’t succeed in networking because .A.they didn’t make effortsB.they didn’t behave effectivelyC.they didn’t pay enough moneyD.they didn’t spend enough time2. According to the second habit,we shouldn’t when we are networking.A.make friendsB.talk about dollarsC.shake hands with everyoneD.pay attention to money only3.When talking with others,you should .A.give out your cards and brochures every now and thenB.talk about the quality of your product as much as possibleC.let other people express themselves completelyD.interrupt others when they make a mistake4.Which of the following is NOT correct about a salesman’s behavior?A.He offers too much self-promotion during the conversation.B.He considers when he can get what he expects carefully.C.He only focuses on one opportunity when networking.D.He keeps his promises and doesn’t expect too much from others.Ⅲ.阅读填句(2015郑州高三第一次质量预测)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

( A )We don’t always get a second chance to achieve our dreams.But some people are lucky,like Matthew McConaughey.Once almost unknown,the actor has recently found himself back on the listof the best actors in Hollywood.His new movie Interstellar is just another sign that his careerreinvention has been an incredible success.“ The film relies on McConaughey’s performance to hold together the emotional story of a father and his daughter against the background of spacetravel and the end of the world,” Forbes commented.But only years ago,the Texas native was often the butt of jokes (笑柄) about being too handsome.In 1993,after meeting with director Richard Linklater,McConaughey starred in Dazed and Confused.And a Hollywood career was born,mostly in romantic comedies.For a long time,the wholeworld believed McConaughey was just a handsome guy with comic talent.But McConaughey stopped starring in that type of movie,and began to use his looksdifferently.Slowly he built up his reputation as a serious actor.In2013,McConaughey was offered to play an AIDS activist in Dallas Buyers Club.The role saw the normally muscular actor losing50 pounds in order to appear sick.His performance won him an Oscar for Best Actor.The actor gave thanks to someone he has always looked up to as a hero during his Oscar acceptance speech.When he was 15,the actor said,he decided that his hero would be himselfin 10 years.But 10 years later,he pushed the deadline ahead another decade.Then 10 yearslater,another decade.“ My hero’ s always 10 years away,”he said.“I’ m never going to attain that.That keeps me with somebody to keep on chasing. ” Or perhaps constantly chasing the chance to be his own hero has given him a second chance to follow his dreams.21.Why was McConaughey often the butt of jokes in his early career?()A.He was limited to handsome roles.B.He was unknown to the audience.C.He played in romantic comedies.D.He was handsome and emotional.22.What role won McConaughey an Oscar for Best Actor?()A.A caring father.B.An AIDS activist.C.A serious buyer.D.A strong hero.23.What can we learn about McConaughey?()A.He was born in Hollywood.B.He has become a hero of his own.C.He wasn ’ t famous until recently.D.He isn ’t content with his achievements.24.Which of the following can be the best title?()A.McConaughey,a Romantic ComedianB.McConaughey,a Man Making a HitC.McConaughey,a Man Daring to changeD.McConaughey,Handsome and Talented( B )Dear Amanda,As the Dean of Yale College,I am writing to congratulate you on your academic success andto introduce you to Yale ’s diverse opportunities....As you consider your college options,I hope that Yale remains among your top choices.This is part of an e-mail I received this fall.I admit it made me feel pretty special tohave Yale,one of the best universities in the world,approach me,a fairly average high schoolsenior from New Jersey.But why me?My grades are nothing to brag about.I didn’ t qualify for the National Merit Scholarship Competition.I haven’ t led a team sport or conducted scientific research.Later,I learned that each year,Yale sends mailings to roughly80,000potential students for its freshman class of 1,300.For the class of 2018,Yale rejected 93.7 percent of itsapplicants.And,according to the College Board,95percent of Yale ’ s enrolled(注册入学 )students were in the top 10 percent of their high school classes.Colleges want a top ranking by U.S.News & World Report.One way to get it?Low acceptancerates,which come from attracting lots and lots of applicants— and then rejecting almost all ofthem.So schools mail fancy brochures and send sincere e-mails to many more students than they’ll accept.Top schools defend their marketing,arguing that they’ re reaching students who otherwisemight not apply—because they don’ t think they could get in,or don’ t realize that most top schools offer lots of need-based financial aid.As William Fitzsimmons,dean of Harvardadmissions,said:“There are so many students out there in the world who might not automatically think about Harvard as a place to go.The chances of reaching the top of anything are not good,butis that a reason not to try?”But most of the students Fitzsimmons is talking about don’t consider Harvard because they ’re not academically qualified.Kids like me don’ t need false hope.Approaching students with aslim chance of getting in just creates more confusion and disappointment.So Yale(and Brown and Columbia),stop selling me on impossible dreams.25.Why did Yale send the author an e-mail?()A.To show it ’ s a top college.B.To persuade her to apply to it.C.To introduce its diverse courses.D.To send its congratulations to her.26.The underlined part“brag about” in Paragraph 3 probably means.A.worry aboutB.think aboutC.be

D )What exactly is intelligence?There aren’ t any easy answers.Despite the progress that has been made in genetics and psychology,human intelligence has remained one of the most controversial areas of modern science,until now,that is,for the discovery of a gene( 基因 )linked to intelligence has made the experts think again.Robert Plomin of the Institute of Psychiatry in London and his colleagues in the US havebeen looking into genetic make-up.From their research,they have discovered that a slightlydifferent gene is more common in those with a high IQ.Plomin analyzed DNA from two groups of51 children aged between 6 and 15.What he found was that the first group had an IQ of 136,putting them in the top 5% of the population,while the other group had an average IQ of 103.An analysisof their genes showed that 32% of children in the higher group had the gene in question,whileonly 16%in the second group did.However,there is a lot more research to be done,and Plomin himself is cautious at this early stage.He suggests that there are probably many genes that contributeto intelligence,rather than just one.Several studies have shown a strong link between IQ and career success,although somepsychologists remain unconvinced about this.Professor Michael Rowe,who has written a book called Genius Explained,is one of these.“ The people with the highest IQs are not usually the oneswho do best in their careers.”Many psychologists now believe that when it comes to intelligence,IQ isn ’ t everything.Many alternative views have been put forward recently.One example is the idea of multipleintelligences,which was developed in the 1980s by Harvard psychologist Howard Gardner.This offers a much broader view than the IQ theory,including creativity and communication skills as relevant factors in intelligence.Tony Buzan,brain expert and author of Master your Memory,is enthusiastic about thisbelief,arguing that true geniuses(天才 )do indeed appear to combine high levels of each type of intelligence.He lists Alexander the Great,Pablo Picasso and Albert Einstein as examples.At thesame time,Buzan believes that everyone can develop their intelligence,only if they take thetrouble to exercise their brain.Perhaps there’ s hope for us all!32.What is the topic of the passage?()A.The relationship between genes and intelligence.B.IQ benefits a lot from high intelligence.C.How to develop intelligence.D.What makes intelligence.33.Why does the author use data in Paragraph 2?()A.To make a suggestion.B.To draw a conclusion.C.To prove an idea.D.To give an example.34.What can we learn from the passage?()A.Robert Plomin confirms genes have something in common.B.Howard Gardner thinks intelligence includes various factors.C.Michael Rowe approves of a strong link between IQ and career.D.Tony Buzan agrees geniuses exercise brain to improve intelligence.35.What does the underlined word“ This ” in Paragraph 4 refer to?()A.The development of intelligence.B.The idea of multiple intelligences.C.IQ isn ’ t everything for intelligence.D.Alternative views have been put forward.第二节 (共5小题;每小题2分,满分 10分)根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

I put a small set of Tinkertoys in front of each student, and said:”Make something out of the Tinkertoys. You have 45 minutes today - and 45minutes each day for the rest of the week.”A few students hesitated to start. They waited to see the rest of the class would do. Several others checked the instructions and made something according to one of the model plans provided. Another group built something out of their own imaginations.Once I had a boy who worked experimentally with Tinkertoys in his free time. His constructions filled a shelf in the art classroom and a good part of his bedroom at home. I was delighted at the presence of such a student. Here was an exceptionally creative mind at work. His presence meant that I had an unexpected teaching assistant in class whose creativity would infect(感染) other students.Encouraging this kind of thinking has a downside. I ran the risk of losing those students who had a different style of thinking. Without fail onewould declare, ” But I’m just not creative.”“Do you dream at night when you’re asleep?”“Oh, sure.”“So tell me one of your most interesting dreams.” The student would tell something wildly imaginative. Flying in the sky or in a time machine or growing three heads. “That’s pretty creative. Who does that for you?”“Nobody. I do it.”“Really-at night, when you’re asleep?”“Sure.”“Try doing it in the daytime, in class, okay?”25. The teacher used Tinkertoys in class in order to ________?A. know more about the studentsB. make the lessons more excitingC. raise the students’ interest in artD. teach the students about toy design26. What do we know about the boy mentioned in Paragraph 3?A. He liked to help his teacher.B. He preferred to study alone.C. He was active in class.D. He was imaginative.27. What does the underlined word “downside” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A. Mistake.B. Drawback.C. Difficulty.D. Burden.28. Why did the teacher ask the students to talk about their dreams?A. To help them to see their creativity.B. To find out about their sleeping habits.C. To help them to improve their memory.D. To find out about their ways of thinking.CReading can be a social activity. Think of the people who belong to book groups. They choose books to read and then meet to discuss them. Now, the website turns the page on the traditional idea of a book group.Members go on the site and register the books they own and would like to share. BookCrossing provides an identification number to stick inside the book. Then the person leaves it in a public place, hoping that the book willhave an adventure, traveling far and wide with each new reader who finds it.Bruce Pederson, the managing director of BookCrossing, says, “The two things that change your life are the people you meet and books you read. BookCrossing combines both.”Members leave books on park benches and buses, in train stations and coffee shops. Whoever finds their book will go to the site and record where they found it.People who find a book can also leave a journal entry describing what they thought of it. E-mails are then sent to the BookCrossing to keep them updated about where their books have been found. Bruce peterson says the idea is for people not to be selfish by keeping a book to gather dust on a shelf at home.BookCrossing is part of a trend among people who want to get back to the “real” and not the virtual(虚拟). The site now has more than one million members in more than one hundred thirty-five countries.29. Why does the author mention book groups in the first paragraph?A. To explain what they are.B. To introduce BookCrossing.C. To stress the importance of reading.D. To encourage readers to share their ideas.30. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2refer to?A. The book.B. An adventure.C.A public place.D. The identification number.31. What will a BookCrosser do with a book after reading it?A. Meet other readers to discuss it.B. Keep it safe in his bookcase.C. Pass it on to another reader.D. Mail it back to its owner.32. What is the best title for the text?A. Online Reading: A Virtual TourB. Electronic Books: A new TrendC. A Book Group Brings Tradition BackD. A Website Links People through BooksDA new collection of photos brings an unsuccessful Antarctic voyage back to life.Frank Hurley’s pictures would be outstanding----undoubtedly first-rateB. They showed undersea sceneriesC. They were found by a cameramanD. They recorded a disastrous adventure A. Frank Hurley B. Ernest Shackleton C. Robert Falcon Scott D. Caroline Alexander A. Artistic creation B. Scientific research C. Money making D. Treasure hunting photo-journalism---if they had been made last week. In fact, they were shot from 1914 through 1916, most of them after a disastrous shipwreck(海滩), by a cameraman who had no reasonable expectation of survival. Many of the images were stored in an ice chest, under freezing water, in the damaged wooden ship.The ship was the Endurance, a small, tight, Norwegian-built three-master that was intended to take Sir Ernest Shackleton and a small crew of seamen and scientists, 27 men in all, to the southernmost shore of Antarctica’s Weddell Sea. From that point Shackleton wanted to force a passage by dog sled(雪橇) across the continent. The journey was intended to achieve more than what Captain Robert Falcon Scott had done. Captain Scott had reached the South Pole early in 1912 but had died with his four companions on the march back.As writer Caroline Alexander makes clear in her forceful and well-researched story The Endurance, adventuring was even then a thoroughly commercial effort. Scott’s last journey, completed as he lay in a tent dying of cold and hunger, caught the world’s imagination, and a film made in his honor drew crowds. Shackleton, a onetime British merchant-navy officer who had got to within 100 miles of the South Pole in 1908, started a business before his 1914 voyage to make money from movie and still photography.Frank Hurley, a confident and gifted Australian photographer who knew the Antarctic, was hired to make the images, most of which have never before been published.33. What do we know about the photos taken by Hurley?A. They were made last week34. Who reached the South Polefirst according to the text?35. What does Alexander thinkwas the purpose of the1914 voyage?第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。

( A )The sharing economy has grown in recent years to include everything from apartment sharing to car sharing to community tool sharing.Since 2009,a new form of sharing economy has been emerging in neighborhoods throughout the US and around the world—Little Free Libraries.The libraries are boxes placed in neighborhoods from which residents can withdraw and deposit books.Little Free Libraries come in all shapes and sizes.Some libraries also have themes,focusing on books for children,adults,or tour guides.In 2009,Tod Bol built the first Little Free Library as a gift to his mother,who was a devoted reader.When he saw the people of his community gathering around it,exchanging conversations as well as books,he knew he wanted to take his simple idea further.“I think Little Free Libraries open the door to conversations we want to have with each other.” Bol said.Since then,his idea has become a movement,spreading from state to state and country to country.According to ,there are now 18,000 of the little structures around the world,located in each of the 50 US states and 70 countries in Europe,Africa and Asia.The Internet has helped to spread Little Free Libraries.But an Atlantic article says the little structures serve as a cure for a world of e-reader downloads.The little wooden boxes are refreshingly physical and human.For many people,the sense of discovery is Little Free Libraries’main appeal.“A girl walking home from school might pick up a graphic novel that gets her excited about reading;a man on his way to the bus stop might find a volume of poetry that changes his outlook on life,”says the Atlantic article.“Every book is a potential source of inspiration.”21.How do Little Free Libraries get their books?( )A.Citizens shared them.B.Tod Bol donated them. government provided them.D.The communities bought them.22.Why did Tod Bol want to build more Little Free Libraries?( )A.He wanted to promote his idea worldwide.B.He was inspired by the sharing economy.C.They can offer neighbors more chances to talk.D.They are a gift to please his mother.23.Little Free Libraries attract readers most in that .A.they connect strangers togetherB.they are located all over the worldC.they are in various shapes and sizesD.they may give readers a sense of discovery( B )Primary Source Holiday Shopping Night at Ten Thousand Villages Brookline.●Shop for your holiday gifts and give back to Primary Source at Ten Thousand Villages on Friday,December 4! 15% of all sales from 3:00 p.m.-7:00 p.m.that day will be donated to Primary Source.Join us for light refreshments and enjoy beautiful handmade gifts from artisans around the world.All are welcome!Primary Source’ s Holiday Shopping NightFriday,December 43:00 p.m.-7:00 p.m.Ten Thousand Villages226 Harvard Street,Brookline,Massachusetts (Coolidge Corner)Download our flyer and tell your friends!Ten Thousand Villages provides vital,fair income for the people from developing countries by marketing their handicrafts and telling their stories in North America.Learn more and preview toys,home decor,jewelry,and other gifts online.●Can’t join us on Dec.4?

pay $10 for a gift at GoodShop, in the end.A.7 dollars will go to GoodShopB.3 dollars will go to GoodShopC.7 dollars will go to Primary SourceD.10 dollars will go to schools in new England( C )The earth provides us with almost everything that we need to eat,sleep,work and entertain.To do all this,we use the earth’s resources.Because some of us have more buying power,they end up using more resources than they usually need.At the same time,we also create a great deal of waste and pollution.So we also need to think about how much land we use to deal with that waste.Then two things happen:first,large numbers of the world’s population get much less resources than they need to live;second,the earth is damaged.The amounts of resources we consumed are like footprints.They show whose lifestyles are a burden on the earth and whose lifestyles are not.Because a few people eat up most of the earth’s resources,the majority have to bear the consequences—like pollution.This is the ecological footprints that the earth keeps in its memory.Some years ago,a famous expert,called William Rees,developed this idea of the ecological footprints.Today,this idea has become like a magnifying glass (放大镜).It allows us to see whetherwe are living lives in a way that keeps the earth in a reasonably good shape.Once the earth goes out of shape,there is no hope for human beings.Countries like the United States and Canada have big ecological footprints.Rees calculated that the average amount of energy and materials consumed by a Canadian is what a land of 4.3 hectares can produce.India has a footprint of 0.4.This means that the energy and materials consumed by an Indian is what 0.4 hectares of land can produce.But if we look more carefully,we will find that even within India,the footprints of the city Indian are much larger than the rural Indian.28.Which of the following is the best title for this text?( )A.Footprints on the earthB.How to protect the earthC.Footprints of wild animalsD.How to reduce pollution on the earth29.Our footprints on the earth refer to .A.the cities we buildB.the cultures we createC.the marks we leave on roads behind usD.the resources we use and the waste we produce30.According to the text,rich people .A.should give more money to the poorB.are using too many resourcesC.are helping the poor to live better livesD.should live in rural areas with the poor31.We learn from the text that Rees .A.put forward the idea of the ecological footprintsB.thought highly of the United States and CanadaC.thought India was an extremely poor countryD.thought rich people made great contributions to society( D )Birds learn how to fly much like a human baby learns to walk:a combination of instinct (本能)and practice.Not all birds are instinctive flyers,however.Flightless birds,such as penguins and ostriches (鸵鸟),no longer have the instinct to imitate their cousins.The newborn of bird species that can fly,such as pigeons and hummingbirds,have a sense that it is a natural pare this to a human baby who instinctively understands that standing upright is a natural goal to achieve.Most birds cannot fly until their muscle structure has had time to develop.At that time,a nest is their entire world.Baby birds are not responsible for food gathering or protection of their nest,so they develop psychological dependence.Parent birds begin to teach their baby birds the importance of flying by remaining a short distance away from the nest during feeding.If the young birds are to survive,they must step away from the nest.Frequently,this means a few hard falls to the ground followed by a long trip back to the safety of the nest.All practice,awkward as it may seem,does teach the baby birds about the mechanics of flight.Falls to the ground become more controlled as the young bird stretches out its wings,and short jumps back to the nest become longer flight.Parent birds continue to encourage them to leave the nest for longer periods of time.Some species even adopt a tough love policy,leaving the baby birds alone to develop their own instincts.After a few weeks of practice and imitation,young birds learn more advanced flying techniques:how to use the wind for lift and how to make controlled landings.Eventually,all of these become instinctive and young birds can start families of their own.For birds,flying is a demanding exercise.Fortunately,many birds have air sacs (气囊)that act as human lungs,and each breath a bird takes is much more concentrated than humans’breath.Birds also have

2016届高三英语二轮复习高考提分强化练十含答案

高考提分强化练十限时50分钟Ⅰ. 阅读理解It was the end of my first senior year. I was riding with my friends, and a bottle of beer was passed around the car. Everyone was taking swigs(大口). When the bottle got to me, I thought: “What should I do? ”I took a swig. It was the biggest mistake of my life. I had to drive home later that night.I went back to my car, got in and drove off. At a stop sign I saw a policeman sitting in the parking lot across the street. His headlights were turned on, and I knew he was going to follow me. Then he flashed his lights at me. All I could think was: “Oh no, that swig! ”I pulled over and waited for him to come to my door. It felt like forever. “Can I see your license and registration, please, Miss? ”I gave them to him. He took them and went back to his car for a while. When he returned, he asked if I had been drinking.“No, ”I said. He asked me to step out of my car.“Walk heel to toe down the white line, please. ”I passed the test. Next he had me stand on my left foot, lift my right foot and hold it for 30 seconds. I’m not the most coordinated(动作协调的)person and I can’t even walk and chew gum at the same time, so, needless to say, I didn’tpass. Then he asked me to take a breathalyzer test.That was where I messed up. I told him I didn’t want to and didn’t understand why I had to. The officer asked me three more times, and I continued to refuse. He told me to turn around and place my hands behind my back. He arrested me right then and there.The policeman drove me to a police station 20 minutes from my home. He called my parents and told them where I was.I went to court two months after that, charged with refusing to obey an officer. I got a $700(4, 340 yuan) fine and 40 hours of community service. I’ll be on probation(缓刑)for a year, and I’ll have to take the driving test again. I lost my license for a whole year.This was a huge learning experience for me. It opened my eyes to how easy it is to make a stupid decision. I want everyone reading this to know that it’s not right to drink and drive. It definitely isn’t worth losing your license over.【文章大意】本文作者通过自己的经历, 告诫大家不要酒后驾车。
