Grandpa had sent me into the 51 to gather pecans for us to enjoy later.Pecan picking was really 52 work and my little basket was only half full.I wasn't about to 53 Grandpa down. Just then something caught my 54 . A large brown squirrel was a few feet away. I watched as he picked up a pecan, hurried to a tree and 55 in a large hole in the trunk. A moment later the squirrel 56 out and climbed down to the ground to pick up another nut. Once again, he took the pecan back to his hiding place.Not so 57 anymore, I thought. I dashed over to the tree and looked into the hole. It was 58 with pecans! Golden pecans were right there for taking. This was my 59 . Handful by handful, I scooped all of those pecans into my basket. Now it was full! I was so 60 of myself. I couldn't wait to show Grandpa all the pecans. 61 , I ran back and shouted, “Look at all the pecans!” He looked into t he basket and said, “Well, well, how did you find so many?” I told him how I'd 62 the squirrel and taken the pecans from his hiding place.Grandpa congratulated me on how smart I'd been in observing the squirrel and his habits. Then he did something that 63 me. He handed the basket back to me and put his arm gently 64 my shoulders.“That squirrel worked very hard to gather his winter 65 of food,” he said. ‘Now that all of his pecans are gone, don't you think that little squirrel will 66 the cold winter?”“I didn't think about that,” I said.“I know,” Grandpa said. “But a good man should never take 67 of someone else's hard work.”Suddenly I felt a bit 68 . The image of the starving squirrel wouldn't 69 my mind. There was only one thing I could do. I carried the basket back to the tree and poured all the nuts into the hole.I didn't eat any pecans that night, but I had something much more filling—the 70 of knowingI had done just the right thing.51. A. rooms B. woods C. holes D. roads652. A. hard B. dirty C. light D. easy53. A. let B. settle C. have D. keep54. A. sweater B. basket C. eye D. hand55.

For example, in American culture the smile is in general an expression of pleasure. Yet it also has other uses. A woman’s smile at a police officer does not carry the same meaning as the smile she gives to a young child. A smile may show love or politeness. It can also hide true feelings. Forexample, many people in Russia consider smiling at strangers in public to be unusual and even improper. Yet many Americans smile freely at strangers in public places (although this is less common in big cities). Some Russians believe that Americans smile in the wrong places; some Americans believe that Russians don’t smile enough. In Southeast Asian culture, a smile is frequently used to cover painful feelings. Vietnamese people may tell a sad story but end the story with a smile.Our faces show emotions, but we should not attempt to “read”people from another culture as we would “read”someone from our own culture. The fact that members of one culture do not express their emotions as openly as do members of another does not mean that they do not experience emotions. Rather, there are cultural differences in the amount of facial expressions permitted. For example, in public and in formal situations many Japanese do not show their emotions as freely as Americans do. When with friends, Japanese and Americans seem to show their emotions similarly.It is difficult to conclude about Americans and facial expressiveness because of personal and 8 cultural differences in the United States. People from certain cultural backgrounds in the United States seem to be more facially expressive than others. The key is to try not to judge people whose ways of showing emotion are different. If we judge according to our own cultural habits, we may make the mistake of “reading”the other person incorrectly.74. What does the smile usually mean in the U.S.?A. Love.B. Politeness.C. Joy.D. Thankfulness.75. The author mentions the smile of the Vietnamese to prove that smile can ______ .A. show friendliness to strangersB. be used to hide true feelingsC. be used in the wrong placesD. show personal habits76. What should we do before attempting to "read" people?A. Learn about their relations with others.B. Understand their cultural backgrounds.C. Find out about their past experience.D. Figure out what they will do next.77. What would be the best title for the test?A. Cultural DifferencesB. Smiles and RelationshipC. Facial ExpressivenessD. Habits and EmotionsCWhen we found him, he was a sorry sight. His clothes were torn, his hands bleeding. Before we reached him, we saw him fall. He lay a moment. Then he pulled himself to his feet, walked unsteadily a few yards through the woods and fell again.After we got him out, we went back to find the gun that he had thrown down. His tracks showed that for two days he had circled in the forest, within 200 yards of the road. His senses were so dulled by fear and tiredness that he did not hear the cars going by or see the lights at night.We found him just in time.This man, like others before him, had simply been frightened when he knew he was lost. What had been a near disaster might have turned out as only a pleasant walk, if he had made a few preparations before he stepped from the highway or off a known path.W hatever sense of direction that a man may have, it’s still largely a question of observation.A skilled woodsman always keeps an eye on his surroundings. He notes the shape of a mountain, the direction water flows through a swamp, and the way a tree leans across a path. With these in mind, he is still likely to turn around many times, but he is seldom lost.There are exceptions, of course, and once in a while a man does come across some strange problem that puts him into the “lost” situation. A rainstorm or sudden blizzard may catch him 9 without a compass(指南针) in his pocket. Darkness may find him in a rough area, where travel is dangerous without a light.When this happens, the normal first reaction(反应) is the fear of being laughed at as a result of his poor knowledge in the woods. He may also be concerned about the inconvenience that he will cause his friends when he doesn’t show up. This false pride may lead him to keep on the move in a false effort to find his way against all difficulties.The person who thinks ahead is seldom in great danger. He’ll be safe if he observes carefully, thinks ahead, and remains calm.78.According to the text, if a person gets lost in the forest, at the very beginning, he would .A. worry about being laughed atB. push himself to find his way outC. feel it is convenient to ask for help from his friendsD. feel sorry that he didn’t study hard enough79.What is the most important when a person tries to find his way in the woods?A. intelligenceB. observationC. directionD. chance80.The writer tells the story of the lost man as an example of people who .A. go into the woods by themselvesB. don’t know how to signal for help properlyC. are frightened when they think they are lostD. keep their head when they are in troubleDIt had been some time since Jack had seen the old man. College, girls, career, and life itself got in the way. In fact, Jack moved clear across the country in pursuit of his dreams. There, in the rush of his busy life, Jack had little time to think about the past and often no time to spend with his wife and son. He was working on his future, and nothing could stop him.Over the phone, his mother told him, “Mr. Belser died last night. The funeral is Wednesday.” Memories flashed through his mind like an old newsreel as he sat quietly remembering his childhood days.“Jack, did you hear me?”“Oh, sorry, Mom. Yes, I heard you. It’s been so long since I thought of him. I’m sorry, but I honestly thought he died years ago,” Jack said.Well, he didn’t forget you.Every time I saw him he’d ask how you were doing. He’d reminisce(回忆) about the many days you spent over ‘his side of the fence’ as he put it,” Mom told him.“I loved that old house he lived in,” Jack said.“You know, Jack, after your father died, Mr. Belser stepped in to make sure you had a man’s influence in your life,” she said.“He’s the one who taught me carpentry. I wouldn’t be in this business if it weren’t for him. He spent a lot of time teaching me things he thought were important… Mom, I’ll be there for the funeral,” Jack said.Busy as he was, he kept his word. Jack caught the next flight to his hometown. Mr. Belser’s funeral was small and uneventful. He had no children of his own, and most of his relatives had passed away.The night before he had to return home, Jack and his Mom stopped by to see the old house next door one more time, which was exactly as he remembered. Every step held memories. Every picture, every piece of furniture… Jack stopped suddenly.“What’s wrong, Jack?” his Mom aske d.“The box is gone,” he said.“What box?” Mom asked.“There was a small gold box that he kept locked on top of his desk. I must have asked him a thousand times what was inside. All he’d ever tell me was ‘the thing I value most’,” Jack said.It was gone. Everything about the house was exactly how Jack remembered it, except for the box, He figured someone from the Belser family had taken it.“Now, I’ll never know what was so valuable to him,” Jack said sadly.Returning to his office the next day, he found a package on his desk. The return address caught his attention.“Mr. Harold Belser” it read.Jack tore open the package. There inside was the gold box and an envelope. Jack’s hands shook as he read the note inside.“Upon my death, please forward this box and its contents to Jack Bennett. It’s the thing I valued most in my life.” A small key was taped to the letter. His heart racing, tears filling his eyes, Jack carefully unlocked the box. There inside he found a beautiful gold pocket watch. Running his fingers slowly over the fine cover, he opened it.Inside he found these words carved: “Jack, Thanks for your time! Harold Belser.”“Oh, My God! This is the thing he valued most…”Jack held the watch for a few minutes, then called his assistant and cleared his appointments for the next two days. “Why?” his assistant asked.“I need some time to spend with my son,” he said.81. Why did Jack think Mr. Belser died years ago?A. College and career prevented him from remembering Mr. Bleser.B. Jack was too busy with his business and family to think about Mr. Belser.C. Jack was too busy realizing his dreams to think about Mr. Belser.D. His present busy life washed away his childhood memories.82.

Mr. Belser had asked for Jack’s mailing addressD. Mr. Belser had pleasant memories of their time together83. Why did Belser send Jack his gold watch?A. Because he was grateful for Jack’s time with him.B. Because he had no children or relatives.C. Because he thought he had to keep his word.D. Because Jack had always wanted it during his childhood.84. Why did Jack say he needed some time to spend with his son?A. He was very tired of his work and wanted to have a good rest.B. He came to realize the importance of the time with his family.C. He had missed his son and his family for days.D. He had promised to spare more time to stay with his son.85. Which of the following is the most suitable title for this passage?A. The Good Old TimesB.

2020-2021学年镇江一中高三英语一模试卷及参考答案
2020-2021学年镇江一中高三英语一模试卷及参考答案第一部分阅读（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项A“Why do I feel cold when I have a fever?” “Why does the sun rise in the east?” I knew the day would come when my little girl Sophie would learn to talk and inevitably (不可避免地) start askingthose questions. The questions themselves weren’t worrying me. I was actually looking forward to seeing where her curiosity would lie.What was bothering (烦恼) me was whether or not I would know the answers. In the age of the smartphone, this may seem like a silly worry. The answers to almost everything would be just one Google away.Still, I struggled with how I was going to prepare to become an all-knowing mother. Then one day, it struck me: I didn’t need to have all the answers. What a great example I could set if I let my daughter know that I, too, was still learning. And I realized how much more I could learn if I took another look at things I thought I already knew the answer to with the curiosity of a child. My little girl’s mind is a beginner’s mind--- curious, open to new ideas, eager to learn, and not based on knowledge that already exists. I decided that I would deal with her questions with a beginner’s mind, too.Once I decided to become more curious, I started noticing that curiosity was becoming more important in the workplace, too. It seems that leaders don't need to have all the answers, but they do need to be curious.Curious about curiosity, I searched for answers and found Albert Einstein’s famous words, “I have no special talent. I am only passionately (热情地) curious.” We mightquibble overthe view that Einstein had no special talent, but there is one thing for certain---he wouldn't have solved the puzzles of the universe without his passionate curiosity. Then I came across another Einstein quote, “The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason or existence.”1. The advantage of having a beginner’s mind is that ________.A. people can learn much faster.B. people won't be afraid to make mistakes.C. people are willing to receive new things.D. people won't be expected to answer all questions.2. What does the example of Einstein’s words show?A. Einstein was passionate about curiosity.B. Einstein’s quotes are very famous.C. Curiosity is of great significance.D. Curiosity is more necessary than talent.3. What does the underlined phrase “quibble over” in the last paragraph probably mean?A. Fight against.B. Argue about.C. Work out.D. Agree withBLast summer, Maria and her mother moved from their house in the countryside to a flat building in Chicago. Maria really liked some things about the city, but she missed her house and yard in the countryside.One day, Maria was in her flat building when she noticed her neighbor, Mrs. Garcia, carrying a gardening tool and a bag of soil. Maria wondered how Mrs. Garcia was able to garden in the city.“My mom used to grow the most delicious vegetables, and I know she misses her garden now that we don’t have a yard,” said Maria.Mrs. Garcia laughed. “I’ll show you,” she said.Maria thought that Mrs. Garcia would take her to the park, but she took her to the roof. When the door opened, Maria was surprised to see rows of flowers and vegetables on the roof.“What a wonderful garden!” said Maria.Mrs. Garcia told Maria that for a long time the roof was just an empty space. Then some of the people in the building asked the owners to turn it into a community garden. The building owners liked the idea because the plants not only helped to keep the air clean, but they also helped to keep the building cooler during warmer weather.“I plant flowers in my own place,” Mrs. Garcia said, “but you would be surprised by how different the plants are up here. Some people grow vegetables just like your mom. You can do some of the same things in the city as in the countryside. You just have to be creative!”4. Where did Mrs. Garcia take Maria to one day?A. The park.B. The roof.C. The garden in front of her house.D. The countryside.5. Which of the following is NOT the good side of the community garden?A. It made the building stronger.B. It helped keep the air clean.C. It helped keep the building cooler.D. It used the empty space well.6. After Maria visited the garden, she would most probably ask her mom to ________.A. go back to the countrysideB. pick flowers from the gardenC show her around the park D. grow vegetables on the roof7. What is the best title for this passage?A. A Creative LadyB. An Empty RoofC. A Rooftop GardenD. A Special BuildingCChildren's average daily time spent watching television or using mobile device increased from 53 minutes at age 12 months to more than 150 minutes at 3 years, according toan analysis by researchers at the National Institutes of Health (NIH). By age 8, children were more likely to log the highest amount of screen time if they had been in home-based children or were born to first-time mothers.“Our results indicate that screen habits begin early, ”said Edwina Yeung, an investigator in National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD).“This finding suggests that interventions(干涉) to reduce screen time could have a better chance of success if introduced early.”In the research, mothers of 4, 000 children responded to questions on their kids' media habits when they were 12, 18, 24, 30, and 36 months of age.TheAmericanAcademyof Pediatrics recommends avoiding digital media exposure for children under 18 months of age, introducing children 18 to 24 months of age to screen media slowly, and limiting screen time to an hour a day for children from 2 to 5 years of age. In the current study, researchers found that 87% of the children had screen time exceeding (超过) these recommendations. However, while screen time increased throughout toddlerhood, by age 7 and 8, screen time fell to under 1.5 hours per day. The researchers believe this decrease relates to time consumed by school-related activities.The study authors classified the children into two groups based on how much their average daily screen time increased from age 1 to age 3. The first group, 73% of the total had the lowest increase, from an average of nearly 51 minutes a day to nearly an hour and 47 minutes a day. The second group, 27% of the total, had the highest increase, from nearly 37 minutes of screen time a day to about 4 hours a day. Higher levels of parental education were associated with lower odds of inclusion in the second group.8. Who use mobile device longest according to the NIH's analysis?A. 10-year-old born to first-time mothers.B. 3-year-old children in low income families.C. 8-year-old children in home-based childcare.D. 1-year-old children with parents poorly educated.9. What does the research suggest according to Edwina?A. Parents should stop their children using media.B. Parents should limit the use of digital media themselves.C. Parents should reduce their children's screen time earlier.D. Parents should avoid their children using digital media at infancy (婴儿期).10. Why does children's screen time fall when they age 7 and 8?A. They are studying at school.B. They can control themselves.C. They are tired of using them.D. They are forbidden to use them.11. Which of the following may be the best title?A. Keep Away from MediaB. Screen Habits Begin EarlyC. Urgency of Parental EducationD. Harm of Home-based ChildcareDThe idea of growing food in a desert would make most people laugh but this is quickly becoming a reality. There are currently two desert farms in the world where quality vegetables are being planted cheaply and easily.Sundrop Farms, based in South Australia, uses experimental greenhouses to grow tomatoes, peppers and cucumbers. The biggest challenge of growing food in a desert, obviously, is the lack of available water. The researchers at Sundrop Farms have gotten aroundthis problemby using the sun to desalinate (淡化) sea water. It can also be used to control the temperature of the greenhouses.Without depending on limited resources such as land and fresh water Sundrop Farms has made farming a practice. This can increase the world’s food supplies. Another benefit ofthis kind of farming is that it can be done anywhere, thus reducing the costs of transporting food to distant locations. Yet another benefit is that it reduces the need for pesticides (杀虫剂).Another experimental desert farm is the Sahara Forest Project, which began in Qatar in December 2012. Greenhouses in the farm are cooled by saltwater. Solar power and other technologies are used together to help make vegetation (植被) grow in the desert environment. As deserts have expanded over recent years around the world due to global warming, this project could solve the problem.The result form the Qatar project were better than expected and in June of 2014, Jordan agreed to host another one. This will be much bigger than the Qatar project and the project members will have even moreopportunities to test their experiments on a much larger scale. It is not clear yet that desert farming resents the future of farming but these projects have shown some success in the field.12. What does “this problem” in paragraph 2 refer to?A. Sea water is bard to purify.B. The desert is short of water.C. The temperature is high in the desert.D. Desert farms aren’t fit to plant vegetables.13. What is one of the characters of desert farming?A. It needs more pesticides.B. It saves delivery costs.C. It has a location limit.D. It solves food waste problems14. What can we know about the Sabara Forest Project?A. It lives up to expectationsB. It can help produce more foodC. It is started to prevent global warmingD. It uses technology to produce saltwater15. What can be inferred about desert farming from the last paragraph?A. It still has problems to solve.B. It represents the future of farming.C. Its early success has aroused interest in it.D. Its aim is to create more job opportunities.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

It can open up new worlds, broaden horizons, and inspire us to dream big. In the fast-paced world we live in, it’s easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle, forgetting the joy of sitting down with a good book. However, the benefits of reading are numerous and should not be overlooked.One of the most significant benefits of reading is the expansion of vocabulary. As we read, we encounter new words and phrases, which not only enrich our language but also help us understand the complexities of the English language. Additionally, reading improves our comprehension skills, allowing us to better understand written materials in school and in our daily lives.Furthermore, reading can be a great source of entertainment. It provides us with an escape from the monotony of daily life and takes us to places we may never physically visit. Books offer us a window into different cultures, histories, and perspectives,broadening our understanding of the world.Moreover, reading is a powerful tool for self-improvement. It can inspire us to become better versions of ourselves, motivating us to pursue our goals and dreams. Thecharacters and stories in books often serve as role models, teaching us valuable life lessons.Lastly, reading is a skill that can be enjoyed throughout life. It’s a hobby that can be shared with friends and family, creating lasting bonds and memories. As we grow older, our reading preferences may change, but the joy of reading remains the same.1.What is the main idea of the passage? (4 points)•Answer: The passage discusses the power and benefits of reading.2.Which benefit of reading is not mentioned in the passage? (4 points)•Answer: Improving mathematical skills. (The passage does not mention improving mathematical skills as a benefit of reading.)3.What does the passage say about reading and vocabulary expansion? (4 points)•Answer: Reading expands our vocabulary by introducing us to new words and phrases.4.According to the passage, why is reading a great source of entertainment? (4points)•Answer: Reading provides an escape from daily monotony and takes us to new places and cultures.5.What role do the characters and stories in books play, according to the passage? (4points)•Answer: The characters and stories in books serve as role models, teaching us valuable life lessons.五、作文（30分）Title: The Importance of Reading in English LearningDirections: Write a composition of no less than 100 words on the topic “TheImportance of Reading in English Learning.” You are required to include your personal experience or views on the subject.In the pursuit of excellence in English learning, the role of reading cannot be overstated. Reading is not merely a means to enhance vocabulary and grammar skills; it is a gateway to understanding different cultures and perspectives.My own experience with reading has been enriching. I recall the first time I delved into a novel in English, the sense of wonder and discovery that came with every new word or phrase. Over time, reading became a habit, and I found myself not only improving my language proficiency but also broadening my horizons.Reading in English has allowed me to access a vast array of knowledge and ideas that were previously inaccessible. It has fostered a deeper understanding of global issues and opened my mind to diverse ways of thinking. Moreover, the joy of discovering new stories and characters in a foreign language is indescribable.In conclusion, the importance of reading in English learning lies not only in its contribution to linguistic proficiency but also in its ability to shape our worldview and enrich our lives. I strongly encourage all learners to make reading a regular part of their English learning journey.。
江苏省镇江第一中学高考英语高中英语阅读理解专题复习(专题训练)
一、高中英语阅读理解1．阅读理解It was the beginning of 2011. I had just finished filming the first season of Game of Thrones(《权利的游戏》). With almost no professional experience, I had been given the role of Daenerys Targaryen. The show was so successful that young girls would dress themselves up as Daenerys for Halloween.And yet, terrified of the attention, terrified of trying to make good on the faith that the creators had put in me, I worked much harder.On the morning of February 11, 2011, I was getting dressed in a gym when I started to feel a bad headache. I was so exhausted that I could barely put on my sneakers. I tried to ignore the pain, but I couldn't. I reached the toilet and sank to my knees. A woman came to help me. Then everything became unclear. I only remember the sound of an ambulance.That operation lasted three hours. When I woke, the pain was unbearable. After four days, they moved me out of the I.C.U. (重症监护室). But one day when a nurse asked me, as part of a series of cognitive (认知的) exercises, " What's your name?", I couldn't remember my name and I felt terrified: I am an actor; I need to remember my lines. Now, I couldn't recall my name.The phenomenon is called aphasia. Then I was sent back to the I.C.U. and, after about a week, I was able to speak and know my name. And I was also aware that there were people in the beds around me who didn't make it out of the I.C.U. I was continually reminded of just how fortunate I was.I rarely gave a thought to my health. Nearly all I thought about was acting. I thought of myself as healthy. Once in a while, I would get dizzy. When I was fourteen, I had a migraine (偏头痛) that kept me in bed for a couple of days. But it all seemed manageable — part of the stress of being an actor. Now I think I might have been experiencing warning signs of what was to come.Anyway, there is something pleasant about coming to the end of Thrones. And I'm so happy to be here to see the beginning of whatever comes next.（1）The author felt terrified after acting in the first season of Game of Thrones because _____.①she felt nervous about the public attention.②she had been criticized for her lack of experience.③she was experiencing some warning signs of a serious illness.④she wasn't sure if she had perform ed well in Season 1.A. ①④B. ②③C. ①②D. ③④（2）When did the author lose consciousness?A. After she took an operation.B. After a woman came to her rescue in a gym.C. When trying to ignore a headache while working out.D. When knowing many patients wouldn't survive the illness.（3）A patient who is suffering from aphasia ______.A. cannot move his or her bodyB. will fall into serious depressionC. must undergo brain surgery at onceD. is not able to remember things from the past （4）What can you infer from the end of the passage?A. The author feels very lucky to be an actress.B. The author is quite confident about her role.C. The author can't go on acting due to the illness.D. The author will pay more attention to her health.【答案】（1）A（2）B（3）D（4）D【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，作者讲述了自己在作为一名演员对待工作非常认真努力却忽视了自己的身体健康，直到有一天她晕倒并进了重症病房接受治疗，她才意识到要重视身体健康。

In fact, he is very obedient (顺从的) to me especially when I take care of other furry friends in our shelter.As you already know, there have been a lot of forest fires during the summer season. Many forests are badly damaged by fire each year. Not far from our shelter, a forest caught fire during this hot summer. We are in July, a heat wave which has been going on for three days.Luke rushed towards the forest where flames send out an infernal heat. There’s no longer any hope at the moment to wait for Luke to come back to the shelter. In fact, I was waiting for the fire brigade to announce me his death in the forest. Suddenly, a fireman burst into my office and informed me that my dog Luke succeeded in saving four kittens who were trapped by the flames. According to the fireman, Luke seized the kittens, one by one moving them to a safe place.I immediately accompanied the fireman to the forest to pick up the rescued kittens. Once on the scene of the incident, Luke was not there. Then we heard the sound of a dog coming from the forest barking furiously. I recognized the sound of my dog Luke. The firemen followed the tracks of the dog until they found him barking loudly by the side of an injured fireman who was lying on the ground and desperately waiting for rescue.Thanks to Luke, four kittens and a fireman were saved. That day, I was very proud of Luke for his two heroic actions. Luke showed much compassion (同情，怜悯) for both animals like him and for a human being who was trying to put out the fire with his colleagues. Truth to tell, my happiness is great and immeasurable.I paid a visit to the fireman in his house accompanied with my adorable Luke. What a memorable scene when the fireman hugged Luke tightly to his chest! “One thousand thanks, Luke, for saving my life,” the fireman said.This true story of love and compassion shows us that pets are loving, caring and compassionate. We should love and protect them. Don’t belittle them. Little animals can make enormous things for humans.61. We can learn from the passage that ________.A. Luke put out the forest fireB. this story happened in JulyC. the four kittens rescued the firemanD. there have been a lot of forest fires during every season62. The underlined word in the third paragraph “infernal” probably means ________.A. fierceB. weakC. cruelD. limited63. Which of the following can best describe the dog in the whole course of the accident?A. Obedient, courageous and generous.B. Generous, sympathetic and caring.C. Courageous, sympathetic and caring. .D. Courageous, generous and sympathetic.64. What does the writer mainly want to tell us?A. He is so proud of the dog that he will never look down upon it.B. Pets are humans’ companions and worthy of our love and respect.C. Luke has always been his closest and constant companion for years.D. We should learn from Luke to face up to dangers at critical moments.BReports that apes (类人猿) have a born linguistic ability and can be taught to communicate with humans have been questioned by several authorities on primates (灵长类).The reports say that chimpanzees (黑猩猩) and other apes at Georgia State University’s Language Research Center (LRC), using a computer system attached to a voice machine, have learnt enough words to make simple sentences. The computer is flat with hundreds of touch-sensitive squares, each having a symbol related to a word in the animal’s vocabulary. Touching the square makes the machine produce the appropriate word. One chimpanzee, Kanzi, can use the system to say, “I want a cup of coffee, please.” Another, Panbanisha, is said to know around 3,000 words.But Dr Tom Sambrook, of the Scottish Primate Research Group, told BBC television of his doubts that the apes’ achievements meant all they appeared to. “They can use language effectively to make requests”, he said. “But whether they’re understanding what they’re doing is a much more difficult mystery to solve.”Dr Sambrook was asked whether the LRC’s work did not at least show that humans and great apes were closer t han many people believed. “I personally have no problem with being as close as possible to the chimpanzees.”“But if you look at their production of language, you’ll find it’s hugely different from the manner in which, for example, a child uses language.”Dr Sambrook quoted an earlier researcher’s words: “Were a four-year-old child to use language in the way a chimpanzee uses it, we would consider that child disturbed.”Jim Cronin is director of the Monkeyworld ape rescue centre in Dorset. He believes that primates do have a rudimentary（未成熟的）language ability, but is concerned the research at LRC does not offer much to the animals themselves. Mr Cronin, speaking on BBC Radio Five Live, said,“ What do the chimpanzees ever get out of all this?”“I look at all this research, and everybody says: ‘Should the chimps have human rights?’ ”“They don’t have any rights here at all. I would get a 400-pound chimp—three times overweight—who has been isolated (被隔离的), and wonder ‘Is that cruel?’”“I hear about a chimp who has been raised since 1972 on his own, in isolation, because it would seem that isolation is the key to being taught this.”“And I wonder who is cruel here.”65. What can we know from the second paragraph that chimpanzees at LRC ________.A. shouldn’t have human rightsB. can speak the English languageC. like drinking teaD. have learnt simple sentences66. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Chimpanzees are as clever as a four-year-old child.B. Young children have the same rights with chimpanzees.C. Chimpanzees use language differently from humans do.D. The LRC’s work showed that chimpanzees understood what they were doing.67. What does Jim Cronin suggest in the passage?A. Chimpanzees have no language ability.B. People should raise chimpanzees at home.C. Chimpanzees in research should get much more.D. people should agree with what scientists at LRC did to the chimpanzees.CChoose a word to describe the past winter. Chances are many of us will either pick “smoggy” or “PM 2.5”. Much of central and eastern China, blanketing more than 1.4 million square kilometers, was covered in smog.PM2.5 refers to small particles (颗粒) of pollution in the air with a diameter of 2.5 micrometers or less. It is a major part of the heavy fog. The biggest cause of it is human activity, especially motor vehicle emissions and the burning of coal.Although PM2.5 particles are too small to be seen, they can be harmful to people’s health, as they can go deep into the lungs and even enter the bloodstream. They can lead to heart, brain and respiratory (呼吸的) diseases and an increased risk of cancer.To warn the public of the pollution, the Ministry of Environmental Protection has started to monitor he level of PM2.5 in 74 major cities including Beijing and Shanghai, since Jan 1, 2013.The public can now find real-time PM2.5 data online called CN Air Quality. The safety level set by the World Health Organization is 25 (daily average). Any reading above 100 is considered to be unhealthy for people with breathing or heart problems. Readings above 400 are dangerous for everyone.Although you might think all PM2.5 particles are harmful, Fan Shaojia, a professor of environmental studies at Sun Yat-sen University, says some of them can be reused at a certain stage. “The PM2.5 particles appearing during the production process of steel can be collected and recycled,” he told Nanfang Daily. But he further pointed out that “once they spread out into the environment, we can do very l ittle to help”.The solution to the PM2.5 pollution is to change China’s highly polluting and energy-using economic growth model, Fan said.The government will increase the reuse of energy, cut carbon dioxide emissions and make stricter laws to control pollution, Premier Wen Jiabao said in his Government Work Report at the NPC on March 5.A. the government has made the strictest laws in the world to control the PM2.5 emissionsB. PM2.5 refers to small particles of pollution in the air with a diameter of 2.5 micrometersor lessC. human activity, especially motor vehicle emissions and the burning of coal, is the biggest causesof PM2.5.D. to reduce PM2.5 pollution, we should change the highly polluting and energy-using economicgrowth model69. We can learn from the passage that PM2.5 particles ________.A. only cause stroke (中风)B. are small but they can be seenC. are all harmful before they spread out into the environmentD. can enter the bloodstream and even increase the risk of cancer70. The underlined word “filter” (in the form above) probably means ________.A. removeB. changeC. leaveD. burn71. What of the following would be the best title for this passage?A. The biggest cause of cancerB. Measures taken to prevent PM2.5C. The size of PM2.5D. Fight against PM2.5DWithdrawing money from the bank used to be so convenient. You could visit a money machine almost anywhere. Without paying a cent, you could get enough cash. But a couple of years ago some banks started charging a fee. If you didn’t have an account with them, you had to pay at least a dollar to withdraw money at their ATM.Other banks followed suit and now the majority charge a fee. Some even charge as much as $3! For many people who withdraw (取款) money from ATMs daily, that’s more than many would actually save in a year.That’s a steep fee, especially when you’re trying to withdraw $5.To their cr edit, banks have tried to make ATMs much safer for us. They’ve installed bright lights and security cameras. They don’t want anyone else robbing us.Some lawmakers are trying to put a limit on the surcharges (增收费). They don’t want the ATMs to display this message: “Please withdraw only half as much as you can afford, because we’re taking the other half.”Banks say they have to charge a fee because ATMs are expensive. They cost as much as $80,000 and that doesn’t even include the money inside. It would be cheaper to put a human in a box. But there’s probably a law against that. And humans, unlike machines, will make mistakes. They will run off to Mexico with the money.The surcharge also allows banks to install A TMs in many convenient places. However, when they are busy making ATMs more convenient, banks have made them less convenient for people like me. I’d rather have one free ATM in my neighborhood than a dozen that want to swindle (诈骗) me. A couple of dollars may not seem like much to a banker, but to me, it means a feast at Taco Bell. Besides, it’s against my principles to pay a bank to give me MY money. I just won’t do it, unless I’m stuck somewhere with no money and no Visa.What annoys many people, including me, is that we got used to free ATMs over many years. Banks got us hooked to them and then decided to reel in (卷，绕) our money.For some reason, in the 1970s and 80s, bankers didn’t complain much about the cost of installing ATMs. When the first ATM appeared, a banker said, “Here’s a revolutionary m achine that dispenses cash without requiring minimum wage. It has no bad habits like smoking, swearing, or asking for raises. It cannot be threatened with a gun. One day, this machine will be able to greet people through the video display, process their transactions (交易) quickly and take them to the cleaners. ”72. We can infer from the underlined sentence that the author thinks the charge on A TM withdrawal is_________.A. reasonableB. very smallC. unusually highD. sudden73. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A. People used to withdraw money from ATMs for free.B. Some lawmakers are making efforts to limit the surcharges on ATM users.C. Bankers complained a lot about the cost of installing A TMs in the 1970s and 80s.D. Banks make A TMs safer for people by installing bright lights and security cameras.74. We can infer from the passage that banks started charging a fee for withdrawing money from ATMspartly because ________.A. they can make a big profit by doing soB. they don’t want to put a human in a boxC. the money will only be used to install more ATMsD. ATMs cost as much as $80,00075. The author writes the passage mainly to ________.A. explain the necessity for ATM surchargesB. tell people ATMs are not as convenient as they are expectedC. show the great convenience ATMs have brought to our livesD. criticize banks for imposing unreasonable charges on ATM withdrawal第四部分：任务型阅读How to be a modern day ladyThe word “lady” always makes people rememb er the images of women in the Victorian era (时代) of British history or Jane Austen novels. But do we have to go back to dressing in that style to be a lady? What does being a lady actually mean in the 21st century?British etiquette (礼节) tutor William Hanson told The Telegraph that being a lady today is all about elegance and confidence. “The behavior doesn’t need to be something straight out of a Jane Austen novel,” he said. But that doesn’t mean there are no specific rules to being a modern day lady. According to Hanson and other experts on etiquette, a real lady must tick all the following boxes of style and manner.EducationBeing educated was one of the essential qualities of a lady in the time of Jane Austen, when the middle class was commonly educated at home. In Pride & Prejudice, Caroline Bingley says,“A woman must know music, singing, drawing, dancing and the modern languages thoroughly to deserve the word ‘lady’. Mr. Darcy adds that an accomplished lady must also improve her mind through reading mo re books.This educational requirement hasn’t been compromised much. A lady by today’s standards must educate herself in every possible way, from higher education to common sense manners, according to Candice Simpson, author of How to Be a Lady: A Contemporary Guide to Common Courtesy.Dress codeOne of the biggest misconceptions of a lady is that she can’t be fashionable, pointed out Eunice J Leong of . As a modern example of a lady, Duchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton has proved that it’s possible to be elegant and fashionable at the same time. But elegant fashion is usually understated and simple― ostentatious designer logos should be avoided.In addition, according to Hanson, a lady always lets her natural beauty shine. Hanson even prescribes strict skirt lengths. He believes a lady should never wear any garment that rises too far above the knee. Based on this rule, Lady Gaga, one of the most famous ladies of our times, should be simply Gaga.Art of wordsA lady should avoid gossiping (传播流言蜚语) quietly about friends or relatives, said Hanson. It leaves a bad impression on others, even if they are joining in. If you freely gossip about someone, others will begin to wonder if you gossip about them to others.Further tips for being a lady, as offered by Hanson, include:Don’t swear.Don’t be rude to others.Don’t overshare or talk about your private life loudly in public.Title: How to be a modern day lady。

With the right planning, traveling as a college student may be easier than you think.Chengdu, ChinaIt is home to pandas and spicy things. Besides, the city has a number of cultural and historical sights together with its slow lifestyle, making Chengdu one of the most attractive cities for college students. On average, you may spend about ¥157 on meals and ¥43 on transportation there for one day.Con Dao Island, VietnamYou can travel for about ¥100 per day in Vietnam if you have a good plan. Con Dao Island Nation Park, a group of small islands off the southern coast, is a great destination to see sea turtles and explore the beautiful beaches.Zakynthos Island, GreeceIf you’re looking for an inexpensive European summer beach vacation, consider Zakynthos Island. Food is cheap and mouthwatering. There are plenty of free things to do, such as spending time on the beautiful beaches or swimming in the amazing sea.New Orleans, U. S.New Orleans is a unique place in the U. S., full of history, culture, delicious food, and a non-stop nightlife scene. There are actually a couple of hostels in and near the French Quarter that offer cheap accommodation for students.1．How much on average may be spent on meals and transportation in Chengdu per day?A．¥43.B．¥200.C．¥157.D．¥100.2．What do Con Dao and Zakynthos Islands have in common?A．Free tourist attractions.B．Impressive cultures.C．Large museums.D．Amazing sea views.3．What is the advantage of the French Quarter?A．It offers unique service for students.B．It has the longest history in New Orleans.C．The price of hostels is low.D．Hostels there are clean and modern.Colin and Donna Craig-Brown were working in their New Zealand garden in late August. They were removing unwanted plants when they found something strange. After a little digging, Colin discovered there was a very large potato growing in his garden. And they never planted potatoes!“We couldn’t believe it, ” Donna said. “It was just huge.” The couple worked the potato out of the soil and brought it to a scale. It weighed almost 8 kilograms.The potato may be the largest ever recorded. In 2011, a large potato from Great Britain weighed just under 5 kilograms. The New Zealand potato, now named Doug, could break the record. The Craig-Browns asked Guinness (吉尼斯) to recognize their potato as the largest ever. They are waiting to hear from the organization.The potato has become famous in the town of Hamilton, Colin took Doug on walks round the neighborhood, “We put a hat on him. We put him on Facebook, taking him for a walk, giving him some sunshine,” Colin said. “It’s all a bit of fun.”Colin said he does not have any special gardening methods to pass on. Normally, he and his wife fertilize (施肥) their garden with waste from cows and dried grasses. The Craig-Browns were growing cucumbers (黄瓜) in that part of the garden, so they didn’t expect there was a potato. It may have been growing for two years or more.The potato is getting a little old now, two months after it was taken from the ground.Right now, it is in the freezer.4．How did the couple feel when they found the potato?A．Satisfied.B．Surprised.C．Thankful.D．Hopeful.5．What does “a scale” underlined in paragraph 2 refer to?A．A tool.B．A plant.C．An animal.D．A person.6．Why has the potato become famous?A．Because it won’t go bad easily.B．Because it is an unexpected visitor.C．Because it may be two years old at least.D．Because it may break the Guinness record.7．What could be the best title for the text?A．Two skilful gardeners.B．A potato on Facebook.C．The possible largest potato.D．A special gardening method.Teenagers who travel around the world alone have been making headlines quite often. A young person alone in a dangerous situation attracts attention and supporters. Young sailors also attract various views. For example, Jessica Watson was asked by the government to call off her solo trip across the ocean, yet the Prime Minister (总理) called her “a hero for young Australians” when she returned.It seems views are poles apart on the ability and independence of young people.Some experts tell us that teenage brains are likely to make wrong judgments. But such ideas often do not apply to specific individuals (个体) . Between the ages of 14 and 18, teenagers differ greatly in their abilities. The amount of independence that each is allowed should be determined not simply by their ages but by discussion with the related, responsible adults. Some teens are certainly inexperienced and make childish mistakes, but the ones who attempt dangerous journeys normally do so by winning the confidence of hard-headed and experienced adult supporters.But it’s also wrong to think that any 16-year-old can make a hit as Jessica Watson. Watson calls herself “a common girl who had a dream”. Her purpose is to encourage teenagers but this idea can have the opposite effect of making them feel not good enough because great achievements are beyond them. Should all teens have such wild dreams? Actually, individuals face different conditions that limit their dreams.Teenagers who travel around the world alone should not be judged by preconceived (先入为主的) views about young people. Nor should young “common” teenagers feel pressure to long for extraordinary personal goals. In fact, I believe the example of solo sailing overstresses what an individual can do. The teenage years are when most of us “common” people learn that we canachieve great things in cooperation with others.8．Why is Jessica Watson mentioned in the first paragraph?A．To set a heroic example for teenagers.B．To point out the public’s interest in young people.C．To introduce different opinions on teenagers’ adventures.D．To show the Prime Minister disagreed with the government.9．What can determine the amount of teenagers’ independence?A．Different journeys.B．Brain development.C．Communication with adults.D．Confidence in themselves.10．What does Watson mean by calling herself “a common girl who had a dream”?A．She likes dangerous journeys.B．Teenagers can make success.C．She can accept she is common.D．Teenagers should go travelling. 11．What’s the author’s attitude towards teenagers’ act of travelling alone?A．Doubtful.B．Supportive.C．Uncaring.D．Uncertain.Protecting marine (海洋的) animals is crucial for the health and balance of our oceans, since they play a vital role in the marine ecosystem, serving as food sources; contributing to nutrient cycling, and maintaining biodiversity. However, human activities such as overfishing, habitat destruction, and pollution pose significant threats to these creatures, so effective conservation measures should be taken to change for the better.Most people know about the friendly voices of dolphins and the blue songs of humpback whales, but what about the hundreds of thousands of other creatures that live in the sea? Scientists estimate that over 100 types of marine mammals, as well as 1,000 different fish species, generate sounds. Additionally, many sea creatures produce passive sounds while eating, swimming, or crawling along the sea floor. A group of international scientists is now joining forces to create a library of all the unique sounds that animals living under the sea make.The Global Library of Underwater Biological Sounds, or GLUBS, will be an open-source collection of the signature sounds created by sea creatures. The team will use existing libraries of sea sounds and expand upon these to create a more comprehensive collection. The platform will also include AI algorithms (算法) that can detect and classify different sounds, which will allowscientists to produce species distribution maps.When asked about the motivation for this project, Miles Parsons, one of the project’s leaders, pointed to the worldwide decline in biodiversity. By examining the sounds coming from bodies of water, scientists can monitor the changes in the distribution and diversity of various ecosystems. Studying the sounds could also be used to identify new species. Parsons explained that many of the world’s most extensive habitats are aquatic (水生的). GLUBS could be a great resource in helping preserve water species around the world.12．Which of the following is true about sea creature sounds?A．It is difficult to distinguish eating sounds.B．Only 1,000 different fish species produce sounds.C．Little is known about the sounds of marine animals.D．Scientists don’t have to create sound libraries from zero.13．How will AI be used in the library?A．It will be used to create new aquatic sounds.B．It is needed when scientists distribute maps.C．It helps manage the number of species in the sea.D．It can help sort out the different collected sounds.14．What reason did Miles Parsons give for creating the sound library?A．Biodiversity is decreasing around the world.B．It is difficult to record the sound s of sea creatures.C．We should keep the balance and preserve the ocean.D．Fishermen could use the sounds to help them catch more fish.15．Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A．A scientific research assisted by AI.B．Sounds Created by the Marine Animals.C．GLUBS: A Sound Library of the Sea.D．Sharp decline in global biodiversity.If you have a big test coming up or just want to do well in class, studying is one of the best things you can do to improve your grade. Even though revising things you already learned mightseem boring, you’ll feel a lot more comfortable with the material. 16Study in 1-hour blocks.Keep your study time shorter so you don’t get tired. Set aside (留出) an hour for each of your subjects so you have time to revise them. 17 In this way, you don’t get information mixed up between classes.18Step away for a few minutes every hour so you don’t feel overworked. Since studying takes up a lot of energy and brainpower, schedule in 5-10 minutes every hour where you just relax. Avoid working through the breaks.Schedule time to study every day.Try to set aside a regular time to go over notes for class. 19 So, you’re able to focus a little better. If you can, try to plan the same time every day so you can get into a regular routine (惯例).Work somewhere quiet.20 Avoid studying in a room with other loud people or distractions since it’ll be hard to focus and remember the material. Instead, go into your room and shut the door, or find a quiet spot at the school library where you can sit.A．Plan regular breaks.B．Revise your notes in your own words.C．Only focus on one subject at a time during each block.D．Find a time when you feel the most energetic to study.E．We’ll start by looking at some tips on forming the best study habits!F．Find a place where you won’t have trouble concentrating on the material.G．If you live with others, ask them to be quiet when you plan your study time.二、完形填空Last year, I told my family that I didn’t want or need anything for my birthday.

The highest peak of Ali Mountain is Tower Hill with the height of 2,663 meters (about 8,736 feet). Ali Mountain is world famous for its “five rare sites” including the Sunris e, the Ali Mountain Forest Railway, the famous Alishan Sacred Tree, the Grand Sea of Clouds, and the Flamboyant Cherry Blossom. It is said that one who has not been to Ali Mountain will never know its wonderful beauty.The sunrise is a must for everyone who travels the Ali M ountain. Many have said, “To m iss viewing the sunrise on Ali Mountain is like returning empty after entering the Golconda, a source of great wealth.” The best place to view t he sunrise is on the top of Zhu Hill. The place and time of the sunrise are different due to the changes of the four seasons. If you plan to view the sunrise, it is best to ask the local people the time of sunrise, so you don’t mis s this magnificent opportunity.The Ali Mountain Forest Railway is regarded as one of three mountain climbing railways. Traveling along the 72-kilometer-long railway, the train climbs from 30 meters (about 98 feet) to 2,450 meters (about 8,038 feet) above sea level. Its gradient（坡度）is so great that it is rarely seen in the whole world. From the bottom of Ali Mountain to the top, the train crosses four forest areas—tropical, subtropical, temperate and frigid zones.There is a Chinese juniper (杜松) within the Ali Mountain forest area, with some 53 meters (about 174 feet) high, and 23 meters (about 75 feet) wide. This juniper is so huge that more than ten people can surround it. It has a history of more than 3,000 years, thus is called Alishan Sacred Tree. The most wondrous tr ee is a “three-generation” tree. T he three generations of this tree exist in the same trunk. While the first and second generations have faded, the third generation is still flourishing. This tree is really a wonder of nature.The sea of clouds and the cherry blossom should not be overlooked. If you want to avoid sunstroke, the comfortable climate in mid-summer on Ali Mountain will be a good choice.16. What’s th e main idea of the first paragraph?A. Location of Ali Mountain.B.

Electric cars users may also eventually be able to charge their vehicles wirelessly using the same technology according to Fujitsu, which presented a system at an Institute of Electronics, Information and Communication Engineers Conference at Osaka Prefecture University.C laiming to be the world’s firs t of its kind, the technology works on the basis of the transmissionof electricity using magnetic fields between the charger and the electronic device. The system enables wireless charging at distances of up to several metres, with the final aim of installing pu blic “charging spots” on th e streets in order to enable easy charging around the clock.Scientists at Fujitsu Laboratories are planning to commercially sell products including the new wireless charging system as early as 2019 but did not make it clear how much they would cost. “This technology makes it possible to add compact wireless charging functions into mobile phones and enabling several portable devices to be charged at the same time without any restrictions（限制）on their position in association with the charger,” the company said in a statement.The growing popularity of portable electronic devices ranging from iPads to e-readers is expected to fuel a boom in wireless recharging technology developments over the coming decade.Mobile phone users in Japan can currently fill up their batteries using disposable（一次性的）portable plug-in battery-operated devices -- available at most train stations and convenience stores -- although phone companies warn any use for too long can damage the phones.The new system displayed by Fujitsu, however, is significantly advanced and represents the next generation of portable recharging systems using highly tuned wireless technology. The company added, “We are also lo oking at applying the results of this work to fields other than portable electronics, including power transmission between circuit boards or computer chips, and providing mobile charging sy stems for electric cars.”20.

What is certain according to the passage is that .A. the charging system can serve one portable electronic device at a timeB. all the convenience stores in Japan can provide the charging service nowC. wireless charging works within a distance of up to several metresD. the new product doesn’t look promi singCThe story I would like to tell happened about a year ago. I accepted a position in a company. John, an acquaintance of mine, told me much about the job and took my curriculum vitae (简历) to his supervisor. I did not refer to him as a friend because at the time we did not take part in activities together outside of work, nor did our wives.The first week was fine. Nothing was obviously strange with John at first until the second week, when our communication began to get a little strange. John began making comments lik e “you would have had to pay an employment agency several hundred dollars for a job like this”. I soon forgot his words till the next day when he made another similar comment. Right then I started to really pay attention to what he meant. He acted as if I owed him money for helping me to get the job.He began to get short with me and I had only been there for two weeks. He was supposed to train me in building our e-mail servers and setting up the entire standard monitor software. Instead, he went through the process so fast that even an experienced worker could hardly keep up. He would not slow down or check whether I was with him or not. If there was something wrong with a server, he would just buzz through the solution and not stop to s ay anything like “you might want to remember this.” Ibegan to get very frustrated.By the third week I began to get tired of his condescension (傲慢). So I began to challenge him in a way that was only one to one. He would respond to a question of mine with a question or just make me repeat it, and then interrupt me. I began to hate him. Later I tried to avoid him as much as I could, so I wouldn’t run into him.He stopped me one day and asked me what had happened. I told him he was very condescending in his ton e and manner. He asked me, “What can I do so that you will not feel like this way in the future?”I simply asked him to treat me with the same respect he would like to be treated with. He did it and we got along better gradually. I believed there was hope and eventually we would become friends and now we are.23. Wh y didn’t the author refer to John as a friend at first?A.

He looked for the girl whose heart he knew, but whose face he didn’t, the girl with the rose.His interest in her had begun thirteen months before in a Florida library. Taking a book off the shelf he found himself intrigued, not with the words of the book, but with the notes penciled in the margin. The soft handwriting reflected a thoughtful soul and insightful mind. In the front of the book, he discovered the previous owner’s name, Miss Holli s Maynell. With time and effort he located her address. She lived in New York City. He wrote her a letter introducing himself and inviting her to correspond. The next day he was shipped overseas for service in World War II.During the next year and one month the two grew to know each other through the mail. Each letter was a seed falling on a fertile heart. A romance was budding. Blanchard requested a photograph, but she refused. She felt that if he really cared, it wouldn’t matter what she looked like.When the day finally came for him to return from Europe, they scheduled their first meeting -- 7:00 PM at the Grand Central Stat ion in New York. “You’ll r ecognize me,” she wrote, “by the red rose I’ll be wearing on my lapel.” So a t 7:00 he was in the station looking for a girl whose heart he loved, but whose fac e he’d never seen.I’ll let Mr. Blan chard tell you what happened: A young woman was coming toward me, her figurelong and slim. Her blonde hair lay back in curls from her delicate ears; her eyes were blue as flowers. Her lips and chin had a gentle firmness, and in her pale green suit she was like springtime come alive. I started toward her, entirely forgetting to notice that she was not wearing a rose. As I moved, a small, att ractive smile curved her lips. “Going my way, sailor?” she murmured.Almost uncontrollably I made one step closer to her, and then I saw Hollis Maynell. She was standing almost directly behind the girl. A woman well past 40, she had graying hair tucked under a worn hat. She was more than plump, her thick-ankled feet thrust into low-heeled shoes. The girl in the green suit was walking quickly away. I felt as though I was split in two, so keen was my desire to follow her, and yet so deep was my longing for the woman whose spirit had truly companioned me and upheld my own.And there she stood. Her pale, plump face was gentle and sensible, her gray eyes had a warm and kindly twinkle. I did not hesitate. My fingers gripped the small worn blue leather copy of the book that was to identify me to her.This would not be love, but it would be something precious, something perhaps even better than love, a friendship for which I had been and must ever be grateful. I squared my shoulders and saluted and held out the book to the woman, even though while I spoke I felt choked by the bitterness of my disappointm ent. “I'm Lieutenant（中尉）John Blanchard, and you must be Miss Maynell. I am so glad you could meet me; may I take you to dinner?”The woman's face broadened int o a tolerant smile. “I don't know what this is about, son,” she answered, “but the young lady in the gr een suit who just went by, she begged me to wear this rose on my coat. And she said if you were to ask me out to dinner, I should go and tell you that she is waiting for you in the big restaurant across the street. She sai d it was some kind of test!”It's not difficult to understand and admire Miss Maynell's wisdom. The true nature of a heart is seen in its response to the un attractive. “Tell me whom you love,” Houssaye wrote, “And I will t ell you who you are.”27.
